Seeking feedback on potential commuter bus schedule changes

Sitting at #Crozet Mudhouse working this morning 1 - there are a lot of people riding bikes 2 - there is no bike parking 3 - so many people continue to turn left into the Square.

Media literacy. Something that should be taught in schools. I suspect a large number of people would argue that media literacy is indoctrination. Or some such bullshit argument. abcsofmedia.com

Well, crap. I'm guessing the GIS cyberattack too out the Albemarle County Development Dashboard. www.albemarle.org/government/c...

Folks if you are tired of anti-growth advocacy in Albemarle hamstringing new developments, come hang out & plan with like-minded neighbors (including me) at Bar Botanical in Crozet this Thursday between 5 and 7. We can do better!

Next one will be Albacore County meetup at Crozet Seafood

Why is our representative signing his name to this? /rhetorical " 25 US congressmen threaten to sanction France, the UK, Canada and Australia if Palestine is recognized " Maybe if John McGuire held a town hall, we could ask him. www.reddit.com/r/europe/com...

Good journalism here from WAHS' newspaper. thewesternhemisphere.org/11920/news/k...

dumbest timeline

Hey look. Trucks fit in the alley. Still. :)

Wondering why a helicopter is taking off and landing near the fire station on 240

I uploaded the Albemarle County budget to ChatGPT and asked, - how much would a $700,000 house need to pay in property taxes in order to pay for the services its occupants use? - how much would they have to pay if they had two kids in public schools?

Hey, so...Covid rates have gotten real high. Maybe change your behavior to fit this new risk profile? Stop eating indoors at restaurants, mask on mass transit, that kind of thing?

When the most incompetent lapdogs are in charge, you get chaos, confusion and hate. There are no words for these loons. None.

If you’re in Crozet, the Harris Teeter asks you no qualifying questions about preexisting conditions when you show up for the COVID vaccine.

Part of the square is open

Welp. www.reddit.com/r/Charlottes...

Liking the Square.

In America, “the roads and systems were designed for the profitability of the automobile” We could change this in Crozet & Albemarle. Not tomorrow, not overnight, but generationally

It’s hard to read about the “school shooting industry.“ Even harder to read in the context of weapons detection systems now at WAHS. www.crozetgazette.com/2025/09/05/w...

September's note is out. So much happening in the world; here's some Charlottesville real estate market commentary, stories about trauma and moving, a birthday note, & one of my favorite client comments -- when we terminated a Contract."

Welp. PRN loses another food vendor, and the comments are something. www.reddit.com/r/Charlottes...

If you're in Charlottesville or Albemarle, the weekly "Week Ahead" is a must read. www.reddit.com/r/Charlottes...

Am I reading this correctly? The Square improvements are $605,965 more than anticipated? Source: albemarle.legistar.com/LegislationD... Thanks to Charlottesville Community Engagement's Week Ahead for reminding me of Albemarle County BoS meeting this week.

I interviewed with Crystal Graham of Augusta Free Press in Waynesboro, Virginia. We spoke about many road safety issues and my daughter Robyn's tragic death. Augusta and Waynesboro's bicycle & pedestrian infrastructure, is poor at best. Like so may cities, the priority is given to motor vehicles.

Crozet Mudhouse needs a bike rack. Or two.

This seems like a very big deal for local journalism. dailyprogress.com/exclusive/ar...

imagine being so maniacally racist that you side with the fire over the firefighter

As expected, I post about a dozen new affordable mobile homes coming to Crozet, and almost unanimously the facebook comments are in opposition. www.facebook.com/RealCrozetVA...

Not pictured: four people getting onto the “Crozet East” bus. And there were already people on the bus. Changing how humans move is not an overnight evolution but, takes time and persistence, and and an awareness that things don’t always have to be the same. choices matter

His growth is fine apparently. Note: ASAP it was a group several years ago that was active in anti-growth conversations. Advocates for a Sustainable Albemarle Population

Love the bike rack & location at Crozet's IGA/Great Valu/Crozet Market.

ACPD said that on Dec. 11 and 12, 2024, an estimated 4,043 vehicles traveled eastbound on Rockfish Gap Turnpike during school drop-off and pick up times. An estimated 428 motorists were traveling 10 mph or more over the speed limit. www.cvilletomorrow.org/charlottesvi...

As our kids go #BackToSchool, never forget that we ARE the traffic that we’re afraid of. If more kids walked, biked or rode transit to school, it would erase a massive number of car trips each day, and our kids would be safer, healthier and better at school. HT Ian Lockwood. Spread the word.

For anyone still saying that a Canadian like me should “mind my own business,” there’s literally nothing that’s more my business — more EVERYONE’s business — than the most powerful nation in the world right next door turning itself into a lawless, fact-less, corrupt dictatorship. Nothing. #ElbowsUp

Has Albemarle or Charlottesville done a similar community assessment? Kudos for reporting that the Trump regime's cuts are harming people. Having not yet read Albemarle's Comp Plan, is this stuff addressed? dailyprogress.com/news/local/b...

This is the truth. We have the best universities in the world right now and essentially export education. This is so shortsighted. www.forbes.com/sites/stuart...

We could chose to build to allow kids freedom of movement. But we don’t wapo.st/45C2prn

This is why I advocate for better infrastructure that is inclusive for all. *they* advocate for cars.

Nice.

CCAC Meeting tonight. Who's going? Should be spicy. #CCAC0825 cca.avenue.org/2025/08/ccac...

School starts tomorrow. A friend texted me this at 8 o’clock this morning: “Apple Maps recommend that I take Garth Road this morning school hasn't even started yet not looking good” Fun with roundabout construction

Just cross-posted this story on a 22-unit project in Crozet that is on hold in part because the density level exceeds that recommended in the Crozet Master Plan. infocville.com/2025/08/11/2...

The road to authoritarianism is littered with people telling you you’re overreacting.
