The Arlandrian: Local Planner Discusses Arlandria Planning and Implementation

Alexandria planner talks about neighborhood revitalization efforts at a large gathering in D.C.

Since 2009, the Arlandria Action Plan Advisory Group has been helping guide implementation of the 2003 Action Plan (large PDF).  One of the leaders of the effort on the City staff side has been City Planning and Zoning Urban Planner Brandi Collins. Last week, she was invited to speak at a Coalition for Smarter Growth event with a couple of other young planners at their "Young Planner Showcase."  The event was held at the National Capital Planning Commission.

Here are her slides (PDF), which are displayed during the video. See the video of her presentation at this link on YouTube. Brandi's section starts at about the 6:20 mark and runs about 20-25 minutes, including a Q and A session. She does a great job promoting what we're doing as a community and we are appreciative of the efforts so far. Keep up the focus and great work on Arlandria!
