SUMMARY:Dominion Energy Substation Expansion Community Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Dominion is holding a virtual community meeting to review the proposed expansion of the Crystal Substation power distribution center. This could also include a lad swap of their property at ives & 18th. \nThe meeting can be accessed through the project website\, https://www.dominionenergy.com/projects-and-facilities/electric-projects/power-line-projects/crystal \n  \nHere is the letter sent to nearby neighbors: \n  \n\n\n\n\nCrystal Substation Improvement and Expansion Project \nDear Neighbor: \nAt Dominion Energy\, we are committed to keeping neighbors informed of upcoming projects in their area. You are receiving this letter because we are preparing to make improvements to our Crystal Substation\, located at the intersection of South Hayes Street and South Fern Street in Arlington County\, Virginia. These improvements will allow us to continue providing safe\, reliable\, and affordable electric service to your community. \nCrystal Substation has been in operation for several decades\, and much of the equipment has reached the end of its service life. As part of this project\, we will replace the aging infrastructure and make both safety and operational improvements. In order to complete this work\, we are proposing an expansion of the existing substation. \nOur proposed expansion involves a land exchange agreement with Arlington County. We would like to exchange existing property on South Ives Street and 18th Street (approximately 10\,000 square feet) and acquire approximately 14\,250 square feet of the adjacent parcel owned by Arlington County. This parcel is located to the west of the substation. In early July 2020\, we submitted a rezoning application to the County Board to rezone our substation property to C-O-2.5. \nIn addition to expanding the substation\, our team believes there is a great opportunity to improve the look of the substation to match the current and future vision of the National Landing area. These improvements include: \n\n  removing the existing lattice roof\n  transforming the brick building into an enclosed modernized building\n  landscaping\n  creating a green space area\nWe welcome feedback on our plans through September 2020\, when we plan to submit our Special Use Permit for the November County Board meeting. We are also planning on holding a virtual community meeting to review the project on Thursday\, Aug. 13\, 2020 from 6 – 7 p.m. You will receive an invitation to this meeting in the coming days. Until then\, we have enclosed an FAQ document and a project timeline for your review. \nFor more information about this project\, please visit our project website at DominionEnergy.com/crystal. Or contact us by sending an email to powerline@dominionenergy.com or calling 888-291-0190. \nSincerely\,\nThe Electric Transmission Project Team\n\n\n\n\n\n  \n  \n  \nProject Timeline \n  \n\n\n\nJuly 6\, 2020 –  Submit rezoning application \nJuly – September 2020 Outreach \nAug. 13\, 2020 – Virtual community meeting \nAugust – September 2020 – Solicit written feedback from community through Dominion Energy and Arlington County project websites \nSept. 8\, 2020 – Submit Special Use Permit Application for November County Board hearing \nNov. 14\, 2020 – County Board meeting \nLate Q1 2021 – Anticipated construction start date \nQ3 2022 – Anticipated completion of major construction of substation and electrical componentsQ2 2023 – Anticipated completion of aesthetical components of substation \n\n\n  \n\n\n  \n\n\n\n\n*This schedule is subject to change based on permits\, weather\, etc. \n\n  \n\n\n

SUMMARY:Route1 Lowering: community discussion
DESCRIPTION:ALL 22202 HANDS ON DECK\, 7 PM WEDNESDAY\, AUGUST 26TH\n\n \n\nRegister to attend a joint civic association Zoom meeting to learn about planning for “improvements” to Route 1 through a VDOT feasibility study.\n\n \n\nThese could include a business plan to lower Route 1 (Richmond Hwy) to ground level at 15th and 18th Streets. Cross streets would then have to cross Route 1 at traffic-signaled intersections rather than passing under Route 1 as they currently do. If implemented\, this plan would likely have a significant impact on our 22202 community. Join us to learn about where matters currently stand and to weigh in with your questions and comments.\n\n \n\nYou are invited to a Zoom meeting.\n\n \n\nWhen: Aug 26\, 2020 07:00 PM Eastern Time (US and Canada)\n\n \n\nRegister in advance for this meeting:\nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZEuduigqTwjGtMVyUsdxBnGUUMf-01wag8I\n\n \n\nAfter registering\, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the meeting.
