COVID-19 has changed all of our patterns recently, including community outreach and awareness of development projects in Arlington County. The County has recently issued an ordinance on public meetings that will limit in-person participation in SPRC, Planning Commission, and County Board meetings. Since we in the 22202 zip code may experience the majority of development plans that will come before the Board, it is important that we all stay informed and make our views known during the early stages of planning. Luckily we have a good partner in JBG Smith.
In advance of the expected SPRC meeting
to be held by the County on JBG Smith’s development plans for 101 S. 12th
Street, JBG Smith is offering voluntarily an informal briefing open to the
public for information purposes and questions.
The Crystal City Civic Association is sponsoring this meeting since the
development will be done in Crystal City in order to ensure substantial
outreach to the community during the COVID-19 crisis which has made face to
face meetings impossible. Anyone who
plans to attend the virtual SPRC meeting (potentially in July) should plan to
attend this virtual meeting.
JBG will be hosting this virtual meeting
on WebX June 8 from 7-8 pm with a 20-25 minute presentation by JBG Smith
followed by a Q and A period. The
participation will be by pre-registration only for security purposes and is
open to 22202 residents and other invited guests,
including County planners. In order to attend, please register on the link
below. Registrants will be sent the link
prior to the meeting and only registrants will be allowed to view the virtual
meeting, in order to avoid internet bombing.
Registrants who prefer to attend by phone can use the phone number below
to call. In the same way that County
Board virtual meetings are currently being held on the COVID crisis, a chat
feature will be available to submit questions or comments that will be answered
after the briefing.
