Despite a late-in-the-game curveball, proponents for the restoration of voting rights pressed on with a July 23 workshop aimed at integrating ex-offenders back into the fabric of community life. The event’s initial goal had been to register to vote those who had been included in Gov. McAuliffe’s executive order of April, giving more than 200,000 formerly incarcerated state residents their voting rights back. But the evening before the workshop, held at Macedonia Baptist Church, the Virginia Supreme Court ruled that McAuliffe had overstepped his constitutional authority in the blanket restoration of rights. With just few hours’ notice, “we had to figure out how we could keep this event going,” said Karen Kimball of the League of Women Voters of Arlington, which hosted the event in collaboration with the National Association of Blacks in Criminal Justice. “We had to do some fast work,” Kimball said. The event went on as scheduled, if slightly revised, with organizers saying they believe the effort to expand opportunities for ex-incarcerees to vote will pay off. “This is just a little kink in the process,” predicted Mondré Kornegay, a leader of the local chapter of the National Association of Blacks in Criminal Justice and formerly a board chair of Offender Aid and Restoration of Arlington and Alexandria. The court’s 4-3 decision leaves in flux the status of 13,000 Virginians with felony Continued on Page 17

Residential Areas Get Focus as Leaders Work on Plans for County’s Next Big Snow

Make Money by Replacing Your Old or Broken A/C & Furnace “0” Down - **$110 Effective Monthly Payment

SCOTT McCAFFREY Staff Writer

Arlington government officials will give higher-priority attention to residential neighborhoods when it comes to snow-plowing in the future, County Manager Mark Schwartz has confirmed. Speaking July 19 to County Board members, Schwartz affirmed his previous plan to begin plowing residential areas earlier upon the onset of snowstorms. Current county policy is to clear major arterials first, followed by secondary roads and then neighborhood streets. That policy was tested, and didn’t pass with flying colors, during January’s storm that dropped 18 to 26 inches of snow in Arlington. Many residents complained that even though main roads were clear, they couldn’t get out of their neighborhoods for days following the storm. Schwartz said the county government will rely both on contractors and more of its own workforce to blitz roadways in future storms. “We will be ready when the first snow falls,” he promised. Other potential policy changes remain works in progress: • Schwartz said he isn’t ready to either give up on, or move ahead with full enforcement of, snow-emergency routes across the county. County officials over the past two decades have opted not to tow vehicles parked along those routes. Schwartz said he would “take another look” at the situation, and would like to see improved signage along the routes. • The county manager also expressed ambivalence about moving to an alternate-side parking policy on streets during storms. Requiring local residents to park on one side of the street only would speed snow-clearing, but would also limit the availability of parking spaces already at a premium in the community. “We are going to pursue this very carefully,” Schwartz said, with more community conversations planned. • Schwartz said there have been conversations held with owners of private garages, to see if they would be willing to let residents park in them during major storms in order to free up space on roads. So far, the discussions have not produced tangible results. The county manager made no reference to potential changes to the county government’s snow-removal ordinance,

which was enacted after the whopper snowstorms of 2010. In the past, Schwartz (who became county manager in 2015) has appeared tepid on the subject; he suspended enforcement of the rules during he aftermath of the January storm, saying county personnel were needed on duties outside of enforcement. Although higher than the average winter, which produces about 16 inches of snow at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport, the 2015-16 season wasn’t close to the region’s all-time record, which occurred in 2009-10 when just under 56 inches of snow were recorded at the airport. The lowest total in modern history came in 1972-73 and again in 1997-98, when only 0.1 inches were reported at the airport. The January storm ranks fourth biggest dating back to the 1880s, but remained short of the single-event record of 28 inches recorded in January 1922. Storms in February 1889 and February 1979 also dropped more than the 17.8 inches officially recorded in this year’s storm, although the airport’s location tends to result in lower snow totals than in the District of Columbia, where official totals were determined until the 1940s. And while temperatures of late have been approaching triple digits, never fear – winter’s return eventually will be here. The local area sometimes gets its first flakes as early as mid-October. While the Arlington government is responsible for snow-removal efforts on most Arlington streets, the Virginia Department of Transportation has responsibility for interstate highways and many main commuter routes in the county.

County Republicans Aiming for a Unified Front

As Trump Nomination Causes Rifts, Some in Party Already Looking to 2017 SCOTT McCAFFREY Staff Writer

The same week national Republicans worked to build unity in Cleveland, their local counterparts were angling toward the same goal. A month after a contentious battle over support for Donald Trump led to raised voices and recriminations, the Arlington County Republican Committee’s July 20 meeting was more focused on finding common ground in the waning months left before the Nov. 8 general election. “I hope we can move on and support our nominee,” county Republican chairman Jim Presswood said at the meeting, held the same evening Republican vicepresidential nominee Mike Pence and

defeated presidential contender Ted Cruz took the stage at the Republican National Convention. In June, the local committee members decisively, and derisively, beat back a proposed resolution calling on the national convention to allow delegates to vote their consciences on the first ballot, rather than be required to vote based on the outcome of state primaries and conventions. The measure lost, 27-10, after a debate notable for a level of acrimony rarely seen in local political gatherings. Offering what amounted to an after-action report at the July 20 meeting, Presswood attempted to accentuate the positive. He said the June debate had showcased “lots of sincerely held views on both sides” and provided a good forum for discussion. (Even so, the GOP leadership has taken action to ensure any future discussions don’t spin out of control, appointing for-

mer county GOP chair Scott McGeary as parliamentarian, a position that has been unfilled in recent years.) Divisions in the local Republican ranks clearly remain. The name “Donald Trump” seldom was mentioned at the July meeting, with speakers (including Presswood) frequently substituting “our nominee” in its place. An attempt at humor by one orange-T-shirt-clad committee member – “I’m wearing this in honor of the color of the hair of our nominee” – didn’t generate much laughter from the Trump contingent in the room. Beyond the presidential campaign, county Republicans will be focusing their efforts on GOP nominee Charles Hernick’s longshot bid to unseat U.S. Rep. Don Beyer (D-8th). The party has not fielded candidates for County Board and School Board. And then there’s 2017 to look toward. At the July county committee meeting,

state Sen. Jill Holtzman Vogel (R-Winchester) was on hand to press the flesh in her bid for the Republican nomination for lieutenant governor. Other candidates for statewide office have been, and will be, making stops at the county Republican gatherings. Admitting that the Virginia GOP had been in “a little bit of a funk,” Vogel said the party needs to increase outreach to connect with voters who supported its positions. “We are going to change the demographics” of the party, she said. Vogel came to the event with her 7year-old son Thomas, who holds the distinction of having been the first child born to a sitting female Virginia legislator in the 397-year-history of the General Assembly and its colonial predecessor. “We had a great time,” Vogel said of the family foray from the Shenandoah Valley to Arlington. “We had doughnuts!”

Ebbin Aims to Remove Same-Sex-Marriage Prohibition SCOTT McCAFFREY Staff Writer

It likely will be an uphill battle, but one local legislator says he’s not giving up efforts to remove POLITICAL the prohibition same-sex POTPOURRI on marriages from the Virginia constitution. The constitutional provision was effectively invalidated last year in a ruling by the U.S. Supreme Court. But state Sen. Adam Ebbin says the court ruling provides more reason, not less, to remove it. “It is unconscionable that the General Assembly has not yet . . . begun the process to bring the Constitution into conformance with the law of the land,” Ebbin (D-30th) said in a statement. Ebbin will partner with Del. Mark Sickles (D-Alexandria) to begin the process in the 2017 legislative session, which opens in January. Efforts in the 2016 session proved fruitless. Virginia voters in 2006 approved a constitutional amendment defining marriage as exclusively between one man and one woman. In order to remove the amendment, the Virginia constitution will have to be amended again – a process that includes passage of legislation by two separate sessions of the legislature (with an election intervening) and then a statewide referendum. There is no requirement that outdated or invalidated portions of the common4

July 28, 2016

wealth’s 1971 constitution be removed. But Sickles, in a statement, said it was important to do so. “By continuing to allow antiquated language to remain . . . we tell the world that only certain folks are welcome here in the commonwealth,” he said. Ebbin and Sickles also will work to change relevant portions of the Code of Virginia, efforts that require approval by the General Assembly and governor but not the public. Favola Tops Local Legislators in Cash on Hand: State Sen. Barbara Favola had the most cash in her campaign coffers at mid-year among Arlington’s seven-member legislative delegation, according to new figures. Favola (D-31st) reported $94,476 on hand as of June 30, based on data reported July 15 by the Virginia Department of Elections and the Virginia Public Access Project. That stockpile of cash was third highest among state senators, behind only the $212,177 of Sen. Ryan McDougle (RMechanicsville) and the $198,837 of Sen. Dick Saslaw (D-Falls Church). Among Favola’s local colleagues, state Sen. Janet Howell (D-32nd) had $77,896 on hand, while state Sen. Adam Ebbin (D-30th) reported $21,389. Figures were much lower among members of the Arlington House of Delegates delegation: Del. Rip Sullivan (D-48th) reported $8,482 on hand, with Del. Alfonso Lopez (D-49th) reporting $7,040, Del.

Mark Levine (D-45th) $4,051 and Del. Patrick Hope (D-47th) $2,050. On the House side, 15 incumbents have stockpiles of $100,000 or more, according to state officials, led by Del. Chris Jones (R-Suffolk) at $497,784 and Del. Kirk Cox (R-Colonial Heights) at $345,500. All 100 seats in the House of Delegates are up for grabs in 2017, while state Senate seats are not on the ballot until 2019. All the Arlington seats are considered safe for Democrats. Legislators Rated as ‘Environmental Heroes’: All seven members of the Arlington delegation to the General Assembly have been dubbed “Environmental Heroes” by the Virginia chapter of the Sierra Club, based on their votes in the 2016 legislative session. They are among 37 of the legislature’s 140 members to score 100-percent voting

www.insidenova.com

records in the organization’s third annual Climate & Energy Scorecard. Twelve lawmakers had zero-percent voting records, with the remainder somewhere in the middle. The annual ranking is an effort to “most clearly illustrate a distinction between those lawmakers who took a proenvironment position and those who did not,” said Susan Stillman, legislative chair of the Virginia chapter of the Sierra Club. Singled out for praise among the local delegation was freshman Del. Mark Levine (D-45th), who with state Sen. Amanda Chase (R-Chesterfield) established the Transparency Caucus, a small but bipartisan effort designed to provide additional information on the legislative process. In addition, state Sens. Barbara Favola (D-31st), Adam Ebbin (D-30th) and Janet Howell (D-32nd) and Dels. Alfonso Lopez (D-49th), Patrick Hope (D-47th) and Rip Sullivan (D-48th) received “A-plus” rankings for their votes in committee and on the floor during the session. (The votes scored and the full ranking can be found at www.sierraclub.org/virginia.) Other media outlets give it their best try, but only the Sun Gazette has its finger on the pulse of the local political scene, all the way through to Election Day.

On 4-1 Vote, Fire Station #8 to Remain Where It Is Now SCOTT McCAFFREY Staff Writer

Last-minute appeals failed to sway a majority of Arlington County Board members, who on July 19 agreed to support a task-force recommendation and rebuild Fire Station #8 at its current location along Lee Highway. The 4-1 vote paves the way for design funds to be included in November’s public-safety bond referendum, with construction funds likely sent for voter approval in 2018. Only County Board Chairman Libby Garvey supported the recommendation of county staff and the Emergency Preparedness Advisory Commission to move the station 0.6 miles northwest to a site at Old Dominion Drive and 26th Street North. Proponents of the move said it would allow quicker response times to single-family neighborhoods in far-northwest Arlington. At a County Board work session a week before the vote, it appeared that Garvey was firmly in the corner of the staff proposal, while board members

John Vihstadt and Christian Dorsey were solid in their support of keeping the station where it is. The swing votes were seen as Jay Fisette and Katie Cristol, who ultimately sided with Vihstadt and Dorsey. Fisette said either option was feasible – “I don’t think in the end there was a wrong answer” – but opted to side with the public process. “I have chosen to respect the process and the hard work by the task force,” he said. Garvey expressed her belief that there were multiple avenues to get fire and EMS service to the Lee Highway corridor, but no such options for those who lived above it. “Closer is faster, faster is better,” Garvey said. “There are many fire stations from Lee Highway south – there are none to the north.” Those advocating rebuilding on the current site argued that more people would be best served by keeping the station where it is, particularly since the Lee Highway corridor is likely to experience significant residential and commercial

growth in coming years. That was the argument that swayed a County Board-appointed task force, which recommended – though not unanimously – that the station be rebuilt on the site it has occupied for more than a halfcentury. The task-force report was sent to County Board members in late May. It also swayed Dorsey. “Moving [the station] a little bit north . . . moves it a little bit further from where you have the largest concentration of people,” he said. Among those who had a different take was Jim Pebley, who represents the Arlington County Civic Federation on the Emergency Preparedness Advisory Commission and was a member of the fire-station task force until illness forced him to step down. Pebley believes public opinion was allowed to trump the professional view of county staff and advisers. “I’ve got to conclude that this is a case of ‘the Arlington Way’ running into the ditch,” he said. “The only consolation I can take away is from noting the courage Libby Garvey demonstrated, standing

her ground and not compromising on this public-safety issue.” The task force proposed a four-bay fire station, up from the current two bays. County staff seem to agree that the extra cost will be worth it in the long run. The cost of constructing a fire station at either site was estimated at about the same ($14 million), but the board’s decision to keep the station where it is will require construction of a temporary station at a cost of approximately $3 million. No location for the temporary facility has been determined. The 4-1 board vote was a victory for residents of Halls Hill/High View Park, one of Arlington’s original AfricanAmerican enclaves, who said moving the station would be a slap at the black firefighters (volunteers and professionals) who had served the community over the past century. Rebuilding of the fire station is part of a 10-year capital-improvement plan totaling $3.3 billion, adopted by County Board members at their July 19 meeting. Some of the projects will be included in a November bond referendum.

local school systems will add the sport. “Maybe we’ll be building as we go,” she said, noting that the city of Fairfax’s school system has expressed interest in

following Arlington’s efforts. Adding Ultimate Frisbee to a crowded fall sports season is not without its challenges. Michael Krulfeld, director of stu-

dent activities at Yorktown High School, mentioned availability of field space in a

School Board OKs ‘Ultimate Frisbee’ as Intramural Sport SCOTT McCAFFREY and DAVE FACINOLI Staff Writers

Arlington school officials are aiming to be regional and statewide leaders in introducing the sport of Ultimate Frisbee to a wider audience. School Board members in mid-August are slated to approve its addition to the ranks of intramural sports in county middle schools, high schools and specialty programs, with competition starting in the fall. “This is a first step,” Superintendent Patrick Murphy said at the board’s July 20 meeting. He called plans to add the sport “something that we’re very proud of.” Ultimate Frisbee already is a growing niche sport among Arlington youth, who play on club teams that, while representing individual schools or groups of schools, have no direct involvement with the school system. That will change if the School Board OKs the program for intramural (“cocurricular” in school-speak) status. Under the proposal, each secondary school or program will field teams for girls and boys, with practice taking place in September and competition running throughout October. The estimated $92,000 cost of managing the program and funding equipment and uniforms will be carved out of the existing school-system budget. School Board Vice Chairman Barbara Kanninen, whose sons have played Ultimate Frisbee at the club level, pressed to add the sport to the school system. “It’s a great step,” she said of the sport’s moving up to intramural status. Kanninen expressed hope that other

Highs & Lows THUMBS DOWN: To the County Board, whose members this month flunked Transparency 101. And it’s not the first time. County officials announced that they had reached agreement with the School Board to put a temporary fire station on a parcel that had been designated for field space at the new H-B Woodlawn Secondary Program, set to open in 2019 in Rosslyn. The decision, part of a broader development plan for the parcel, meant that the school would have no field for the first two or three years of its existence. Part of the Arlington Way, these days at least, is for those faced with a decision they don’t like to moan and whine. And at first, we were tempted to put the angry reaction of Woodlawn students (and mostly parents) in that category.

But the reality is, county officials did not do their due diligence on this issue. In an effort to get the development package wrapped up so County Board members could head off on vacation, this particular decision was rushed through with no input from the Planning Commission, Park and Recreation Commission, Public Facilities Review Commission or the site’s building-level planning committee. Perhaps the anger wouldn’t have been so intense had this County Board not talked up the issue of transparency so much at the beginning of the year – yet had so little to show for all that talk. In fact, this most recent action falls on the heels of the County Board’s proposal, which was nearly universally panned and currently

is in cold storage, for a “blue-ribbon panel” to look at local-government priorities. Members of advisory boards and commissions – a territorial bunch, to be sure – concluded that panel would be a way to circumvent traditional planning processes. They may have been right or they may have been wrong, but the concept was rolled out so poorly by County Board members that critics were able to pounce. (County Board Chairman Libby Garvey is lucky this didn’t become a yuuuuuuuge issue in her primary race against Erik Gutshall, because it’s one that could have drawn blood.) With both the blue-ribbon panel and the Rosslyn action, County Board members are guilty of a disconnect between what they preach and what they practice.

Leaders Did the Right Thing for Stratford Editor: Kudos to the School Board and County Board for taking time to consider and discuss the complex access and safety issues at the historic Stratford School site. Our elected officials worked hard to understand the data, history and community experience on all sides of the issue, and give clear direction to help keep the project on schedule. In their May 14 discussion, County Board members shared their 4-1 support for the proposed Vacation Lane to Old Dominion driveway, which was strongly recommended by our elected School Board, school staff and citizenled building-level planning committee (BLPC). The modest incremental cost is well within budget, about 2 percent of the total site improvements, to bring the site up to fire and accessibility codes. In voicing their support, County Board members noted the value of our strong county policies, while highlighting the need to adapt them to varied neighborhood contexts and the unique challenges of our schools. Since November 2014, when the School Board selected the Stratford site to meet urgent middle-school capacity

needs, multiple citizen committees and associations have worked hard to balance the many challenges at Stratford. The Stratford BLPC met 22 times, considered nine different site-access options, represented seven civic associations and seven feeder schools, and invited public comment at every meeting. Recognizing shared goals around thoughtful land use and long-term flexibility for all of our civic sites, our School Board proactively sought input from the County Board. Though unusual for County Board to weigh in at this stage, it was prudent to do so in this case to make sure planning dollars and time would not be wasted. As one County Board member noted, “This is what good collaboration with the School Board looks like.” To meet the needs of our children and residents, Arlington faces many complex decisions and once-in-a-generation investments in the coming years. Close collaboration between both County Board and School Board and staffs, along with careful listening to concerns and possible solutions, will be crucial to building Arlington schools and civic spaces we can afford, take pride in and use safely. In particular, we hope proactive and

thorough traffic and safety analysis will be part of site selection at the very earliest stages of design for each civic site. After all, context matters.

Williamsburg Field-Lighting Task Force Gets More Time SCOTT McCAFFREY Staff Writer

An Arlington task force will receive more time before being required to come back with a recommendation on whether to add lighting to the COUNTY athletic fields at WilMiddle NOTES liamsburg School. The Williamsburg Field Site Evaluation Working Group originally had been directed by County Board members to present its findings this June, a schedule that slipped to the fall and on July 19 was extended to next January by County Board members. The extra time was needed in part because of a lack of meetings last spring (when working-group chairman Erik Gutshall was challenging County Board Chairman Libby Garvey in the Democratic primary), and because members want to have data from spring field use to include in their final report. The working group was set up in July 2015 to determine whether existing county policy of lighting fields to allow for longer daily use should be extended to the Williamsburg site, which is shared by Discovery Elementary School at North Harrison Street and 36th Street South. In what is perhaps no surprise to those who follow such debates in Arlington, supporters of lighting include sports advocates, while opponents include those who live around the school, who fear the impact of lighting on their quality of life. County Board members are now slated to decide next February on whether to issue a use permit for field lighting. Changes to Towing Regulations Include Higher Potential Charges: Arlington’s towing industry was found in violation of local ordinances on 0.04 percent of tows recorded in 2015, and are on pace for essentially the same ratio this year. A total of seven violations were issued by county officials last year in connection with 87 complaints filed by residents out of 18,642 tows, according to data reviewed recently by the county government’s Trespass Tow Advisory Board. Three of those violations against tow companies were for removing vehicles that were legally parked. The others were for various infractions of county towing rules. For the January-to-June period in 2016, there were 38 complaints recorded, and three violations reported, county officials said. The arrival of the new fiscal year for the county and state governments on July 1 meant increases in towing costs in some cases across Arlington. Due to changes in state law, those who tow illegally parked vehicles in Northern Virginia will now be able to charge not only the $135 base rate, but also surcharges of $25 or $50 if tows take places on evenings, weekends or federal holidays.

The towing advisory panel – made up of three police officers, three representatives of the towing industry and one citizen member – in September will consider a number of largely wordsmithing changes to Arlington’s towing ordinance proposed by County Manager Mark Schwartz. County Board OKs Installation of Defense Department Monitoring Devices: Despite concerns raised by the Virginia affiliate of the American Civil Liberties Union, Arlington County Board members on July 19 agreed to provide access to federal officials for the staging equipment that produces forensic analysis after a potential terrorist attack. The request was made by the Defense Threat Reduction Agency, which sought to install explosion-detection equipment. Information generated by the equipment “is critical for the federal government’s efforts to determine who was responsible and how to respond” to an attack, said U.S. Air Force Col. D. Brent Morris, representing the Defense Department. Federal officials also requested that specific information – the type of equipment and where it will be located – be withheld from public scrutiny. And that drew Claire Guthrie Gastanago, executive director of the Virginia ACLU, to object. She wanted county officials “erring and defaulting in favor of transparency.” “It’s important that the capabilities of the equipment be made public,” said Guthrie Gastanago, who suggested Arlington officials weren’t meeting requirements of the Virginia Freedom of Information Act in withholding specifics about the equipment involved. County Attorney Stephen MacIsaac disagreed – “we believe it meets the requirements of the act,” he said – and downplayed any suggestion that listening equipment or other surveillance devices could be incorporated. “It is dormant equipment; it only is activated when a threat occurs,” MacIsaac said. The county attorney’s report convinced board members, but several said they would continue to monitor the arrangement. “I take this balance between security and civil liberties very seriously,” said County Board Vice Chairman Jay Fisette. Once the original equipment is installed, it can’t be modified without County Board consent. The agreement runs for one year, but can be terminated by either side with a month’s notice. “Should we ever get concerned, we have 30 days to cancel,” County Board Chairman Libby Garvey said. Board OKs Extended Hours for Marymount Project: Arlington County Board members on July 19 agreed to extend construction hours at the Marymount University project in Ballston, but added several safeguards after concerns were raised by residents in the vicinity.

Board members voted 5-0 to allow Clark Construction to accept pre-cast building sections for installation as late at 1:30 a.m. six days per week, starting Aug. 1. Currently, work at the site must end at 6:30 p.m. The extra hours are expected to be in place for eight weeks, and will not extend to general construction work. Only about 10 workers and four trucks are expected to be involved at any one time, construction officials said. After hearing complaints from neighbors of the project, board members gave staff the authority to shut down the late hours if work exceeds existing noise-ordi-

nance standards. Marymount and the Shooshan Co. are partnering on a two-building project at the intersection of North Glebe Road and North Fairfax Drive, with construction expected to be completed in 2017. The parcel previously was occupied by a mid-rise building dating to the 1960s and known as the “Blue Goose” for its colorful exterior. Without extension of the workday, Clark Construction officials told County Board members, it might be necessary to shut lanes of Glebe and Fairfax for periods, including rush hour, in order to deliver all materials needed on the project.

Locales Ranked for First-Time Home-Buyers Overland Park, Kan., is the best city in the nation for first-time homebuyers, according to a new ranking compiled by Wallethub.com. The survey of 300 communities looked at a variety of factors, ranking from housing affordability and taxes to property crime and energy costs. Two Colorado communities – Greeley and Thornton – finished second and third on the list, followed by Cedar Rapids (Iowa), Westminster (Colo.), Longmont (Colo.), Boise (Idaho), Lincoln (Neb.), Centennial (Colo.) and Lexington (Ky.). At the bottom of the ranking was Newark, followed by Miami Beach and then four California communities: Oakland, Berkeley, Santa Barbara and Compton. Also in the bottom 10 were Miami, New York City, Paterson (N.J.) and Inglewood (Calif.). Looking exclusively at housing affordability, Detroit ranked highest and Santa Monica (Calif.) lowest. New York City had the highest cost-of-living rate, three times higher than Laredo, Texas, which had the lowest. In terms of energy cost, Shreveport (La.) had the lowest average household rate, $127.60 per month, while Honolulu had the highest ($504.30). What should first-time home-buyers consider when choosing a neighborhood? Arthur Cox, an associate professor of finance and director of the Center for Real Estate Education at the University of Northern Iowa, said individuals should be pragmatic. “They won’t live in that particular house forever,” he said. “As much as possible, a buyer should educate themselves as to whether or not a neighborhood is improving, stable or deteriorating.” First-time buyers should prepare themselves for the experience, said Stijn Van Nieuwerburgh, professor of finance and director of the Stern Center for Real Estate Finance Research at New York University. “Buying a home is a substantial investment,” Van Nieuwerburgh said. “Therefore, it is important to have some financial buffer before making the plunge.” I think a good rule of thumb is that the total cost of spending on a house should not be much more than a third of total spending budget.” A complete ranking of locations, plus the criteria for ranking, can be found at www.wallethub.com.

Arlington Notes COUNTY TO OPEN STOREFRONT LIBRARY IN CRYSTAL CITY: The Arling-

ton County government in September will open a storefront library to serve residents of Crystal City. The 1,222-square-foot space will be used to appeal to residents in the urban corridor, who often do not visit other libraries, county library director Diane Kresh said. The library will be located within the Crystal City Shops Arcade. The county government will receive the space rentfree, but will pay for maintenance, taxes and electricity on the space, as well as spend about $113,000 to renovate it for library use, officials said. In preparation for the opening, library staff will hold a series of meetings to determine what the public wants included in the space. FORT MYER GETS NEW COMMANDER:

U.S. Army Col. Patrick Duggan assumed command of Joint Base Myer-Henderson Hall during a recent ceremony held at Conmy Hall at Fort Myer. Duggan, a Special Forces officer, recently completed a U.S. Army War College Fellowship and a Special Operations Forces Fellowship. He is a native of Miami and was commissioned in 1995 after graduation from North Georgia College. Having served a two-year tour at Joint Base Myer-Henderson Hall, Henderson

LOCAL RESIDENTS HEAD TO ‘WORLD YOUTH DAY’: A group of more than 150

teens and young adults from the Roman Catholic Diocese of Arlington is slated to participate in World Youth Day festivities in Krakow, Poland. They will be part of a gathering expected to total 2 million between July 2531, and will attend an outdoor Mass with Pope Francis. “I was drawn to the idea of millions of people just like me . . . coming together from all over the world to listen to Jesus,” said Margaret Walker, one of those making the pilgrimate. “We may all have different lives, different languages, different societies and different faces, but during this week, all that matters is that our faith unites us,” Walker said. Paul Loverde, the Roman Catholic bishop of Arlington, echoed those sentiments. Continued on Page 10

Flying Fish Fall Short In McLean

Teeing Off

A Comfortable Mix of Baseball and July Heat

There is something appealing and comforting about spending a week’s worth of hot July nights watching the annual American Legion District 17 double-elimination summer baseball tournament at lovable and historic Waters Field in Vienna.

Team Second at 4-1 in Division 1

Dave Facinoli

DAVE FACINOLI Staff Writer

It was the Chesterbrook Tigersharks that had the biggest bite this summer. Behind a strong finish in a July 23 meet, host Chesterbrook of McLean defeated the SWIMMING (5-0) two-time defending champion Overlee Flying Fish, 241-179, in a clash that determined the Northern Virginia Swimming League’s 2016 Division 1 champion. Each team entered that final regular-season meet with 4-0 records, and Overlee with a three-year, 14-meet winning streak. The teams have traded the top Division 1 prize many times over the years, with Chesterbrook last winning in 2012 and 2013. Often the other finishes second, like this year for Overlee (4-1). The Division 1 title is Chesterbrook’s ninth in the pool’s history. Overlee has won 29 such crowns. Overall, the Tigersharks have won 14 NVSL division championships. In the July 23 meet, Overlee led after Continued on Page 16

Third Baseman Swings Hot Bat for Post 139 DAVE FACINOLI Staff Writer

It was no fault of Ethan Heckler’s that Arlington Post 139 finished 0-2 in the American Legion District 17 Tournament. Arlington (11-11) was eliminated by Church Post BASEBALL Falls 130, losing 9-6 at Waters Field in Vienna last week. In those two games, Heckler, a player during the spring for the Wakefield High School baseball team, was 6 for 10 with the bat with nine RBI. The third baseman’s hits included four doubles and a triple. Three of his outs were deep fly outs to left, center and right fields. He did not strike out and had a two-ball

count just once. In the loss to Falls Church, Joe DiConsiglio and Foster Gray had Arlington’s other two hits and Cam Anderson had an RBI. Arlington fell behind, 8-0, after three innings, then rallied to within 8-6 after seven. Frank Sammartino pitched well in relief for Arlington. He fanned eight and allowed two earned runs in 51/3 innings. In the loss to Springfield, DiConsiglio had three hits with an RBI and Jake Ruge had two hits. Arlington had 14 hits and led 5-4 when Post 176 scored two runs in the bottom of the ninth. Gray, Dylan Anderson, Cole Wykoff, Alec Glasser and Noah Winslow had Arlington’s other hits. “We had our chances to win both

games,” Arlington manager Bob Romano said. “We had good players and we’ll have good players back next summer.” Against Springfield Post 176 in Arlington’s first game, a 6-5 loss, Heckler went 4 for 5 with two doubles and a triple and four RBI. He was a home run shy of hitting for the cycle. Against Falls Church, Heckler was 2 for 5 with five RBI. “Ethan is just a power hitter and he’s a good third baseman and pitcher,” Romano said. “He was the rising star for us this season.” Heckler also was good in the field at third, with eight assists and a putout. He pitched 12/3 innings against Springfield without allowing a run, recording a strikeout with no walks.

Certainly the top-quality baseball that is played is a big reason. For those who have forgotten or don’t know about the all-local Legion baseball opportunity in favor of expensive travel ball and its out-of-town showcase tournaments, they are missing something special. Another appeal is certainly the unique setting of Waters, long a fan favorite of so many Northern Virginia amateur-baseball followers. In a story done by the Sun Gazette a couple of summers ago that rated the favorite local baseball fields, Waters was mentioned far more than others. There’s always a lot going on at Waters other than the game at hand. There’s activity from the fire station and church across the streets, the Caffi Field girls softball diamonds and Vienna Community Center (now under heavy renovation with big cranes and all) only feet away. To kill time, Vienna firefighters sometimes walk over from that station to watch. Former Vienna Post 180 players frequent playoff games, as do softball players from Caffi. On occasion, ice cream trucks make a Waters stop. Who doesn’t enjoy such a cool summer treat on a hot July evening? For something hot to eat, the Waters’ concessions stand sells Vienna Inn’s famous chilli dogs, or even better, that same yummy chili mixed into a bag of Fritos Corn Chips. It’s to die for. Legion players and coaches sometimes are noticed sneaking away from their dugouts to visit the concessions stand or ice-cream truck. Waters Field, including the Legion tourney during a plus 90-degree week in July, is a place hard not to like.

While Baker is stepping away, Katherine DeCrosta is just getting started. She is Chesterbrook’s first-year head coach. “We knew Overlee would start strong, but we picked it up in the breaststroke and butterfly and kept it going,” DeCrosta said. “They wanted this, worked, and they got it done in the water.” Double winners in the meet for Overlee were Ryan Baker, Emme Yoder, Suzanne Dolan and Emerson Hart. Winning one race were Mary Kate Reicherter, Elysha York, Alexis Lee, Kayle Park, Eleanor Ridgeway, William Weber, Matthew Kress and Shane Sleighter.

The Washington Golf and Country Club Lightning won the Division A championship of the Country Club Swimming and Diving Association with 423 points in the swim competition.

Then, after the breaststroke and butterfly events, Chesterbrook surged to a comfortable 201-159 lead that the Tigersharks extended in the relays. Overlee entered the meet having days earlier won the Divisional Relays and All-Star Relay Carnival, with Chesterbrook a close second in each. “We had a hard time losing both of those relays to Overlee, so we didn’t want to lose anymore,” Chesterbrook swimmer Thomas Outlaw said. “We had real strong swims in the breast and fly, then we didn’t lose that momentum.” Overlee coach Beth Baker praised Chesterbrook. “They are a strong team, they swam well and earned it, and they had some fast finishes in races that helped them and hurt us,” Baker said. “We had a couple of disqualifications, but that wouldn’t have kept them from winning.” Baker is stepping down after being a coach at Overlee as an assistant and head coach for 13 years. “While I would have preferred this meet gone the other way, I have no regrets about my 13 years. They were incredible,” Baker said. 16

Police Beat ASSAULT BY MOB: n On July 17 at 3:35 a.m., a verbal altercation escalated when six men assaulted a male victim in the 400 block of North Glebe Road, police said. One suspect – 23-year-old Fernando Vail Alonzo of Arlington – was arrested and charged with assault by mob. The remaining suspects are described as Hispanic males. SEXUAL ASSAULT: n On July 21 at 6:30 p.m., a woman was walking along Clarendon Boulevard near North Quinn Street when a man on a bicycle approached her from behind and grabbed her breast, police said. The suspect is described as a “husky” white male. n On July 21 at 10 p.m., a woman

Offenders Continued from Page 1 convictions who had registered to vote since the issuance of McAuliffe’s executive order. The court ruling centered on the blanket nature of the governor’s directive; McAuliffe has said he will sign individual orders restoring rights to each of the 13,000, if need be, to comply with the court’s finding. Those individuals then likely will have to register to vote again, since the July 22 court ruling invalidated all their existing registrations. Officials from the office of the Secretary of the Commonwealth were on hand at the July 23 forum to provide guidance, but they, too, were waiting for details on what process will be set up to comply with the court ruling. It remains an open question whether the process will move fast enough so ex-incarcerees can be registered in time for the Nov. 8 election. The League of Women Voters and National Association of Blacks in Criminal Justice each had been looking to stage a community gathering to boost voterrights-restoration efforts when they found each other and decided to combine forc-

The victim attempted to walk away, and the suspect then groped her. The suspect is described as a white or Hispanic male, 5’8”, with an athletic build. ASSAULT-AND-BATTERY ON POLICE: n On July 21, officers responded to a single-vehicle accident in the 5700 block of 8th Road South. According to police, the driver refused to perform any sobriety tests, and was taken to Virginia Hospital Center, where a search warrant was obtained to secure a sample of his blood for testing.

During the transport to the hospital, the driver spit on and kicked the arresting officer, police said. The suspect – 23-year-old Richard Bayliff of Arlington – was arrested and charged with driving under the influence and assault-and-battery on police. DISCHARGE OF A FIREARM: n On July 18 at 7:40 a.m., officers responded to the 2500 block of North Winchester Street for a report of gunshots. Upon arrival, it was determined that residents had heard one gunshot, followed by a vehicle leaving the area at a high rate of speed. The suspect is described as a black male, in his 20s, 6 feet tall. BRANDISHING A FIREARM:

n On July 19 at 6:30 p.m., officers were dispatched to the 1500 block of Wilson Boulevard for a report of an individual brandishing a firearm. Two women told police that, after honking at another vehicle that had been blocking their path, the driver of the second vehicle followed them, pulled alongside and displayed a handgun before fleeing the scene. The suspect was described as a black male, in his 20s, with a thin build and short black hair. The suspect’s vehicle is described as a black sedan.

Items are compiled from reports issued by the Arlington County Police Department and other public-safety agencies across the region.

“I actually had been looking for a partner,” Kimball said. “We tried to put this together as quickly as possible. There’s just been a good feeling [between the two groups].” Among those on hand to support the effort was Licia White, who in early January had her voting rights restored, 14 years after leaving incarceration. White is now active with Arm & Arm, a peer-to-peer support group whose target areas including voting rights. Despite the court ruling, White was upbeat that the topic of voting-rights restoration is being discussed in the public arena. “I am very excited about the issue being brought to the surface,” she said. Getting back civil rights provides “hope for everybody – you get a shot to stop looking over your shoulder,” White said. Officials in the gubernatorial administrations of Tim Kaine and Robert McDonnell examined the issue of blanket restoration of voting rights, and concluded they did not have the power to do it. McAuliffe’s office came to the opposite conclusion, but the decision was challenged by Republican legislative leaders as an unconstitutional usurpation of power. program up and running for the 2016-17 school year. “We need to recognize opportunities for students and provide them with a host of activities,” said Murphy, who began his educational career as a physical-education teacher. Ultimate Frisbee – often known just as “Ultimate” – is a non-contact sport featuring seven players on each side competing on a 70-by-40-yard field. Teams score points by successfully passing flying disks into end zones. The disks only can be moved by passing; players can’t run with them. While it has not been a team sport locally, Arlington schools have offered Ultimate Frisbee in physical-education classes, said Debbie DeFranco, supervisor

Volunteers who supported the voter-rights-restoration event on July 23 gather for a photo at Macedonia Baptist Church, where the event took place.

The Supreme Court, by the narrowest of margins, agreed. In a statement after the court ruling, McAuliffe called the action of legislators “a disgrace” and “overtly political.” His opponents said it was the governor’s action that qualified as political, occurring as it did in the run-up to the 2016 presidential election. “This opinion is a sweeping rebuke of the governor’s unprecedented assertion of executive authority,” said House Speaker William Howell (R-Fredericksburg) and Senate Majority Leader Thomas Norment (R-Williamsburg) in a joint statement. of health and physical education for the Arlington school system. The sport – which admittedly has a slightly counterculture vibe to it – developed in the groovy 1960s, with the first intercollegiate game held in 1972 between Rutgers and Princeton. (Rutgers won, 2927.) The sport is not recognized by the Virginia High School League, but eventually could be if enough school systems across the commonwealth show interest. But that could take years, as supporters of girls volleyball found when they attempted to get the sport added. During the July 20 School Board discussion, no voices were raised in opposition to the proposal. A final vote is slated for Aug. 18.

Under McAuliffe’s executive order, exoffenders qualified for voting-rights restoration if they had completed their terms of incarceration and been released from parole or supervised probations. Critics complained that the measure made no distinction between violent and non-violent offenders, and that the executive order was riddled with incorrect eligibility information. During his term in office, McDonnell streamlined the process for restoration of voting rights. McAuliffe took it a step further, restoring the rights of more than 18,000 people even before the executive order was signed.

WORK IN THE MEDIA BUSINESS!

Do you enjoy helping local businesses market their products and services? Are you a self-starter who thrives in a fast-paced environment? Northern Virginia Media Services/InsideNoVa.com is hiring two outside account executives to build and manage advertising campaigns for local businesses.

OUTSIDE ACCOUNT EXECUTIVE: Working out of either our Woodbridge or our McLean office, this rep will sell print and digital advertising to local businesses. You’ll be given a book of business but will be expected to build that territory. The ideal candidate will have some business-to-business sales experience, but it does not necessarily have to be in the media industry. More critical skills are a willingness to call on new businesses and an ability to make persuasive presentations.

SunGazette www.insidenova.com www.insidenova.com

Position is full-time and offers a suite of benefits, including medical insurance, a 401(k) and paid time off. Northern Virginia Media Services publishes four local weekly newspapers, in Arlington, Fairfax, Prince William and Stafford counties; two military base newspapers, at Fort Belvoir and Marine Corps Base Quantico; Washington FAMILY Magazine, and the region’s leading news website, InsideNoVa.com. Our newspapers reach 130,000 households a week, and InsideNoVa has nearly 400,000 unique visitors a month.

To apply, send resume and brief cover letter to Bruce Potter at bpotter@Insidenova.com.
