Falls Church News-Press Vol. XXII, No. 39 • November 29, 2012 Shields Credits Mediator With Big Role Making Water Deal Happen What changed? For five and a half years through last summer, Fairfax County and its water authority and the City of Falls Church were at each other’s throats resolved to fight to the death, or until one side exhausted all legal options or resources.
Guest Commentary: Are We Paying Attention? Continued from Page 5
the number of affordable dwelling units in the City is declining. The T-zone changes will not counteract that trend. We would do better for middle housing to simply allow duplexes, quads, and sixplexes within current Tlot guidelines. What can you do? The T-zone proposal is now pending review by the Planning Commission, which must ultimately recommend to the City Council whether to adopt the proposal. The Planning Commission’s decision could happen as soon as December 21. We agree with members of the Planning Commission who have opined that the use of specific
T-zone properties may be better dealt with on a lot-by-lot basis, and not by an across-the-board zoning amendment. We call on you to learn about the Proposal for T-zones and make your voices heard. Here are our suggestions: 1. Learn more at: https:// fallschurch-va.granicus. com/MetaViewer.php?view_ id=2&clip_id=2075&meta_ id=116263 2. Write to Planning Commission and City Council Members at cityclerk@fallschurchva. gov 3. Attend the next Planning Commission meeting on Wednesday, December 7, at 7:30 p.m. to learn more or share your views with the Commission.
