SUMMARY:Pentagon City Study "Virtual Listening Session"
DESCRIPTION:From Arlington County: \n“Please join us for a final virtual listening session on the Pentagon City planning study before the Pentagon City Sector Plan goes to the Arlington County Board later this month. \nSince staff completed public engagement on this study\, we have continued to hear input and questions from the community. The planning study team is tracking input from the community and continues to finalize comment matrixes and documents that will be provided to the Board for its consideration. To ensure that information presented by staff fully encompasses all perspectives\, we’re inviting you to share your input at 7 p.m. Monday\, Feb. 7.” \nAlso from the County: \n“In each one of our public hearings over the last week\, staff has received additional recommendations from the Transportation\, Planning\, and Housing Commissions for further revisions that are now under staff review and may be incorporated into Sector Plan.  Similarly\, with respect to Monday night’s meeting\, staff will be looking to hear if any other items either 1) remain outstanding\, or 2) have not been clearly addressed in the  latest (4th) version of the Plan or its accompanying  comment/response matrices.  Identifying and confirming whether such issues exist will prove quite helpful as we finalize any remaining adjustments to the Sector Plan before the County Board acts on it.”

SUMMARY:Leaf Collection
DESCRIPTION:Leaving your leaves on the ground provides many environmental benefits — they enrich the soil as they decompose and provide habitat for birds\, mammals\, amphibians\, and caterpillars. If you want to get rid of them\, the County vacuum truck will be making several passes. Or leave them in your biodegradable–not plastic–bags or in the yard waste cart. \nThe County’s vacuum leaf passes are: \nAurora Highlands: Nov 10-12 and Dec 1-4 \nArlington Ridge: Nov 17-20 and Dec 8-11 \nhttps://www.arlingtonva.us/Government/Programs/Recycling-and-Trash/Residential/Organics-Waste/Leaf-Collection/Leaf-Collection-Schedule
