is on track to miss its own comprehensive plan & climate goals while budgeting so little for bike infra due to failure to identify projects. I wrote a letter urging Council to fund a connected, protected network—not another decade of failure

It finally sold! Been listed for 1.5 years. They tried to flip for close to $1M after a year, but now ended up at the exact same sale price as in 2023.

Does anyone study what percentage of car trips are legal? As in, the driver does not violate the motor vehicle code the entire trip. Or is it just known to be zero percent?

I think this is true (hopefully it's not) but if Charlottesville had set a goal last December of increasing the city's protected bike lanes by at least 1 foot in 2025, they would not be on track to meet that goal.

1. UVA’s (already low) Black enrollment drops 25%. 2. DOJ alleges anti-white discrimination. 3. UVA’s right-wing leadership cuts “deal.” UVA is now legally barred from taking LEGAL steps designed to fix (1). It was never a “deal.” It was a rigged “negotiation” to freeze these demographics.

This is harmful not just because it's victim blaming, but that it creates a false equivalence in terms of the responsibility of drivers and pedestrians: "bright clothes, headlights on." Drivers have *much more* responsibility to keep road users safe! And that includes not speeding.

not my idea, but it’s a very good one and I’m going to start pushing it: the City of Charlottesville should aim to permanently close the Downtown Mall vehicle crossings no later than 8/12/2027.

Presumably, the late notice was an attempt to be strategic and avoid scrutiny? That seems to have backfired as it makes the response urgent and not something to get to later when time frees up (which it never does).

The bar is low in Charlottesville, but two new (short, painted) bike lanes are exciting! One at McCormick and University, and the other east on JPA at Brandon.

How come in Charlottesville the time between a public open house to replace a 100 year old water main and tearing up Locust is like 2 weeks, but none of the bike lane projects seem to ever get started?

Years of community planning and engagement overruled on a technicality. What a disgrace. This judge allowing a very small number of unelected residents to decide the housing policy for everyone.

We are very disappointed with the ruling today striking down the city’s zoning code. It is noteworthy the plaintiffs didn’t want to go to trial and argue the case on its merits, but rather used a technicality to win. We look forward to supporting the city’s efforts to reinstate the new zoning code.

This is all it is, a cover for NIMBYism. There is no discussion about the opportunity cost, which any good faith proposal would have to, and want to, address. Particularly in a space constrained city.

The Verve construction site closed all nearby bike lanes. Why? To ensure there was street space to park their own cars. And to store barrels.

This is great. It's wild that you can be going 28%-40% over the speed limit and still not get a ticket, but, at least it's something.

fyi and unsurprisingly, MAGA carpetbagger and Albemarle GOP Secretary Phil Hamilton is attempting to organize a counterprotest to the event at Stonefield this Saturday. please come out if you’re available between 1-2pm, numbers are by far the best way to discourage them from starting shit.

Finally below the price at the election. It feels like the increase since last Nov wasn't based on anything real with the actual company. Drops in the share price from this point forward probably represent a more meaningful devaluing of the company.

Friendly reminder that Joann Fabrics isn’t closing because it’s a bad business. It’s closing bc it was bought by a private equity firm. This is also what is happening to Hooters and what happened to US Toys R Us and Red Lobster. These companies are being dismantled intentionally.

Road in front of the Verve has been updated, but someone is going to have to explain to me what the point was. They moved the center line and added a white line. Oh and removed a bike lane in the process. It seems like they removed a bike lane to give cars more space.

This is climate arson, yes, but also the entire value proposition of Tesla, the reason for its insane stock price, is that it would end up the Amazon of electric cars: the only real game in town. Killing off non-Tesla electric car infrastructure is a gift to Musk.
