County Allows Gentrification Contractor Dumping at Pike Recycling Site

Hello Yupette,

Have you visited the recycling site on Columbia Pike at Four Mile Run on weekends recently? The County is allowing contractors who are working on gentrification projects to dump debris at the recycling site, including mixed with the recycled cans and bottles. Sunday I saw that some group that had a large picnic dumped about 20 large bags of food waste off at the site. Disgusting. This is in Chris Zimmerman's neighborhood and when I asked the County Manager's office what could be done they said "We're working on it".

CIP Takes from Middle Class to Fund Pet In-fill Gentrification Projects

Hi Yupette,

Seen the County's new Capital Improvement Program? It's a blatant rip off of the middle class to fund the County Board's pet Gentrification projects. Like the mess Zimmerman wants to build at the EFC Metro Station that only a Yuptard could love.

Massive Opposition Forced CB to Abandon Library Relocation Scam

Hello, Yupette,

It appears that it was only "massive resistance" by our neighborhood that prevented our local library from being relocated to Arlington Mill so Arlington Mill would become more attractive to developers.

Arlington County is run for and by developers. I believe that lots of these development and redevelopment "decision makers" are being paid-off, starting with the County Board.

Time for a change of government in Arlington County !!!

EFC Metro Station Development - Another Zimmerman Dumb Growth Mess

Hi Yupette,

Plans for the East Falls Church metro Station Development are now on the County's Web Site and it's a classic Chris Zimmerman "Guru of Gridlock" Dumb Growth mess. But that's what we get for re-electing Chris Zimmerman and allowing him to pack planning committees with his hand picked Dumb Growth dummies.

Adults to Arlington County Board - Grow Up

Hello Yupette,

It was refreshing to see so many adults at yesterday's County Board meeting telling the Arlington Yuppie Board to Grow Up.

Also, despite serious harassment from Arlington Yuppiecrats, it appears the change-the-government petition already has enough signatures for a referendum to be on the ballot.
