Falls Church NEWS BRIEFS
1st F.C. School Board Debate Set Tonight
Following their first debate, co-hosted by the F.C. League of Women Voters and Village Preservation and Improvement Society held online last week, for the five candidates running for the City Council in the City of Falls Church this fall, a second debate involving the seven candidates running for the City’s school board is set to be held tonight, Thursday, Oct. 7, at 7:30 p.m., also online.
The School Board candidates expected to participate are Tate Gould, Ilya Shapiro, Lori Silverman, Jerrod Anderson, Courtney Mooney, David Ortiz and Kathleen Tysse. They are seeking election to four of the seven seats on the School Board and none has held public office before.
Next week, Thursday, Oct. 14, the Citizens for a Better City will host its City Council debate with Peter Davis as moderator, followed by their School Board debate Thursday, Oct. 21, with Cecily Shea as moderator.
Meanwhile, filings reported by the Virginia Political Action Project show that Shapiro, a leading figure in the D.C.-based Cato Institute, raised $24,879 in campaign contributions, in the most recent period $12,331 from donors outside Virginia, including $5,000 from the New York-based Richard Brand and $3,000 from the Florida-based Robert Hennessey. The only other candidate who has raised significant outside money is Silverman, with $19,030 in total contributions, including more recently a total of $8,000 from three DC-based labor unions.
Bus Rapid Transit Votes Set Tonight
Members of the Northern Virginia Transportation Commission will be asked to vote on projects designed to move more people through the I-66 corridor and to analyze the mobility benefits of creating a Bus Rapid Transit system connecting Alexandria, Arlington, Falls Church and Tysons at their monthly meeting Thursday.
The Commission will be asked to approve a contract to conduct the next study phase in preparation for a Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) system connecting Alexandria, Arlington, Falls Church and Tysons. The study, part of NVTC’s Envision Route 7 program, will study mobility along the corridor from Tysons through to Seven Corners.
They will address issues to determine the mobility benefits of BRT along Route 7, to gain a better appreciation of the traffic impacts of BRT along Route 7, to gain an understanding of the traffic operational issues with a BRT operating along Route 7, and to facilitate the public understanding of how a BRT would operate along Route 7.
NVTC staff conducted a competitive bid process and selected Kittelson and Associates, Inc. for the 18-month effort, to start October 31 and finish by April 30, 2023. The Virginia Department of Rail and Public Transportation (DRPT), the City of Alexandria, Arlington County, the City of Falls Church and Fairfax County will provide the funding for the study.

Broad.
This has been an annual event since October 2008 as business windows in the downtown area come alive with images of bats, witches, scarecrows, pumpkins and ghosts, all the friendly kind.
