John Reardon is guest speaker tonight - Nov 18
Tonight we have the distinct pleasure of a visit from John Reardon, of Facchina Development, who will discuss Public/Private Partnerships (P3) from the developers point of view (and probably Econ Dev since he was formerly the Econ Dev Dir for Charles County). See you at 7pm at the Pavilion.

Hello Everyone, just a note to mark your calendars. As you know, the consultants who conducted the proving exercises in May on the Potomac have completed the study. The date and time has been changed to: November 18, 2009 @ 3:30 p.m. in the Commissioners hearing room. The date was changed to accommodate the elected official (Supervisor Frank Principi) in Prince William County, Va. who is leading the charge. I thought it would be a good idea for him to meet our Commissioners and to begin a dialogue across the river.
I hope you can attend to show support for the project!
In addition, yesterday I attended a Commuter Fair at Ft. Belvoir. It was very interesting in that our Water Taxi booth got a lot of activity. A group of approximately 2,200 people will be moving from N.J. (Fort Monmouth) in the next 10-14 months. Word has it that a majority don't like the traffic and congestion of Northern Va. and are looking at Maryland as an alternative, especially if a ten minute water taxi ride was involved. A small but informed contingent from NJ attended yesterday.
I staffed the booth with Mr. Willem Polack of Potomac Riverboat Company. Mr. Polack has created a survey on his website to gauge interest. Here is the link: http://www.potomacriverboatco.com/survey.php . Share with those you feel would be interested.
Thanks
