Description
ATV's regular roundup of news and notes. In this edition, we check in with the Street Beat team to learn about upcoming SafeTrack Surge plans and we visit the annual Women of Vision awards. We also take a look at the County Board's recent statement that Arlington is an inclusive and welcoming community. We visit a rare Magnolia Bog, meet a new Police Chief for a Day and check out a great new piece of public art.

We've
made
it
through
safetrac

and
now
it's
time
for
surges.
Three
and
four
will
tell
you
what
to
expect
in
Arlington
in
a
new
edition
of
Street
beat,
but
first
the
County
Board
reassured
immigrants
to
Arlington
that
we
are
a
welcoming
community
that
recognizes
respects
and
supports
the
contributions
of
all
its
members.
Let
us.

Tonight,
we're
very
excited
to
have
our
women
of
vision
as
award
ceremony
where
we're
going
to
be
honoring.
Three
women
who
have
made
tremendous
contributions
to
the
arlington
community
in
the
area
of
business
government
and
nonprofits
I.
Think,
as
the
the
award
name
suggests,
a
vision,
I
think
is
extremely
important.
People
are
thinking
ahead
about
what
the
community
might
need
in
terms
of
government
services
or
new
types
of
business
offerings,
or
you
know,
nonprofits
getting
out
there
and
providing
services
to
the
community.
That
may
not
already
be
addressed.
So
it's
sort
of
that
forward-looking
view.
B
Commission
on
the
status
of
women
is
an
Advisory
Commission
to
the
County.
Board
will
provide
advice
and
insight
to
the
board
members
on
all
issues
that
impact
women
and
girls
in
Arlington.
If
anyone's
interested
in
learning
more
about
the
Commission
on
the
status
of
women
or
joining
the

As
you
might
have
heard,
Metro
safe
track
program
is
the
serious
regional
situation.
These
maintenance
surges
affect
everyone
in
the
region.
Even
those
communities
who
don't
have
metro
stations

three
and
four
would
run
from
July
5th
through

It
will
impact

So
how
can
you
get
around
well
we're
making
temporary
Street
operational
changes
around
the
Pentagon
City
metro
station
to
accommodate
alternate
travel
options,
we're
providing
new

The
blue

we're
adjusting
Road
repair
projects
to
minimize
impacts
on
the
affected
routes,
we're
adding
capacity
at
bikes,
tear

we're
also
encouraging
telework
options
for
those
who
are
able
and
for
those
who
must
travel
to
work
to
take
transit
or
carpool
or
vanpool.

It's
important
to
plan
each
search
because
each
one
is
different
and
has
its
own
changes
to
help.
