• Affordable Housing project in Green Valley: 

Discuss sending a letter to County Board and APS in opposition to this project, as it will create an influx of low-income children at Drew Elementary School, our neighborhood school. Drew currently has a 63% FRL rate (free and reduced lunch, the metric used to measure the number of low-income students), making it the 3rd highest FRL % school in Arlington. At only 65% current capacity, there are a lot of seats left to fill.
Green Valley has provided further analysis in opposition of this project on their website: Issues — Green Valley Neighborhood Arlington County, VA Affordable Housing. We have reached out to their President to offer support from CHCA to oppose this project and the negative impact that it would have on Drew.

• Joint letter w/Green Valley to Civic Federation to finalize the County’s map with regard to our boundary (status)

• Purple Lounge – This upcoming Wednesday at 12 noon CPRO will be joined by ACPD, the County Manager, and Staff, and possibly ABC to discuss public safety across the County and Columbia Pike.

Special Boundary Meeting: Sept 1, 2020 07:00 PM

Posted on by
Special Boundary Meeting
Join us for a special Zoom meeting to discuss the final process to confirm that the southern side of 16th St S remains part of the Columbia Heights neighborhood and Civic Association.

Meeting Agenda for the Boundary Meeting Sept 1st.

  • Background: Our boundary map was incorrect in the County records so in order to make that correction,
  • Join Meetings: Our Civic Association (CHCA) and Green Valley Civic Association held multiple meetings to clarify the boundaries, researched and sent confirming letters, while the process was moderated by the Civic Federation.
  • Final step in the process is this meeting: Wherein we advise residents on the south side of 16th St S that they remain part of the Columbia Heights neighborhood and Civic Association.
  • To alleviate the confusion: Confusion caused by the current placement of the Green Valley neighborhood sign at the corner of 16th St S and Walter Reed (placed there because the apartment building has a Walter Reed address and is therefore within the Green Valley boundary), we have asked the County to install the Columbia Heights neighborhood sign just east of the Green Valley sign to reflect the boundary along the south side of 16th St. S.

Ron Haddox is inviting you to a scheduled Zoom meeting.

Topic: Update to inform the residents on the southside of the 16th Street be officially informed that they are in the Columbia Heights Civic Association.
Time: Sep 1, 2020, 07:00 PM Eastern Time (US and Canada)

We will be emailing the invite to our membership and will be posted on our Facebook page.

Please email Ron Haddox at ronhaddox@aol.com if you haven’t got the invite.
