Saturday is alright for podcasting. Or at least, that’s how I deliberately misremember a song in order to have an opening paragraph for this latest audio version of Charlottesville Community Engagement. For much of this publication’s history, the sonic and print versions were unified. It may take an epic quest for that to be restored. I’m Sean Tubbs, and I seem to have misplaced the map.
In this edition:
Albemarle Supervisors approve $2 million for Piedmont Housing Alliance’s 60-unit Premier Circle project (learn more)
The regional planning body adopts a new regional economic development strategic plan (learn more)
Charlottesville City Council gets briefing on how tourism bureau works (learn more)

JABA director marks Older Americans Month (learn more)
Concluding notes for #676-A
Two podcasts in a week! It might be that I can get into something of a rhythm! In any case, as soon as I hit send, the next work week begins. I do not think I am going to write up a newsletter today. I feel like I should write up some things I have not been able to complete yet.
In any case, thanks to paid subscribers. If you want to become one yourself, Ting will match your initial subscription. I am aware they are not available in all locations, but I am also aware of how their support allows me to continue to feel like I can continue this work into the future.
