There is an existential theory that there is no such thing as time and what we experience is nothing more than an elaborate illusion, a construct whose mechanisms we mere mortals cannot understand. For much of the history of Charlottesville Community Engagement, an extra hour or so was taken to turn the written word into something audible. This edition is evidence that something that seems like time has been spent on an audio intrusion.
In today’s edition:
UVA President Jim Ryan and UVA Police Chief Tim Longo offer their perspectives on the removal of an encampment on Saturday
Louisa County Supervisors restore funding to Piedmont Virginia Community College after hearing from officials
Albemarle County Supervisors adopt a budget for fiscal year 2025 based on the increase of two tax rates
A thrift store in Crozet celebrates its 45th anniversary
Notes for #674-A
These four audio segments were in yesterday’s newsletter, which my records indicate is #674. Now that the podcast and the newsletter are disconnected, I’ve been struggling to come up with what to call it for my records. For now, I’m going with #674A.
My hope is to eventually sync the two products back up, but that’s likely not going to happen. I’m enjoying the freedom to get a newsletter out without having to worry about the audio, which means I can get out more stories. That’s the whole point!
You’ll also note there’s no sponsors in the body of this written version announcing this podcast. I used the same public service announcements in the audio as yesterday. If some entity would like to put their name to each podcast, drop me a line!
