  1. Arlington Co. board apparently not returning phone calls of citizens trying to revive the Sunday market, despite promises by Mary Hynes.
  2. Hearing Clarendon Alliance so poorly advertised Clarendon Day that no apps. were received before "deadline." Now there's an additional fee …
  3. Speaking to an increasing number of folks disillusioned with Arlington government. When did this turn around start? Why does it continue?
  4. Clarendon Alliance/Arlington Co. not enforcing vendor guidelines (surprised?). Embarrassing. Time to contact FTC? http://tinyurl.com/no6s57
  5. Putting together a couple of petitions with the help of some interested parties. Nothing new from Arlington County board members.
  6. @markdkelly2 Read the news about the emergency last-minute funding increase … not terribly optimistic about cash for clunkers. Whose cash?
  7. @JaredMadison Which neighborhood, if you don't mind me asking? Hearing the same sort of thing a lot in the 8th, but on a more local level.
  8. Courthouse Market still presenting "designer" handbags, sunglasses, other merchandise "outlawed" by the Clarendon Alliance. No enforcement!
  9. Hoping to see the Clarendon Alliance finally police some of the goods at the market—like the (illegal) knock-off handbags & cheap sunglasses
  10. Clarendon Alliance forced (poorly written) guidelines on Courthouse vendors last week; will post a copy on the site ASAP (might be Monday).
  11. Just got off the phone with someone in local media who "just got wind of some issues," that was unexpected! Details as they develop!
  12. @WildlifeRescue If we manage to salvage a Sunday market in Arlington, would you be interested in setting up once/twice a month?
  13. Continued "absentee landlordism" by the Clarendon Alliance for the courthouse markets. Seriously, how does Arlington Co. let this continue?
  14. Friends: pls. use twitter (not email/phone). Clarendon All. incorrect nonprofit type to run the markets. Details: http://tinyurl.com/n5b5r2
  15. Latest from arlington co. re: clarendon alliance permit is a violation of IRS statute. Do we really have to go that route? V. disappointing!
  16. Clarendon Alliance email went out at the last possible moment. A lot of courthouse market questions still unanswered. Will update with news.
  17. Updated the arlingtonmarket.org site. Interesting emails from folks in the larger Arlington community with similar experiences, more soon.
  18. @stewpify How did you find working with folks from the Arlington County? Trying to see if there's a consensus on good/bad among the depts.
  19. RT @BRACArlington: It's official! Jul 11 has been declared JOE AND LEFTY DAY by the Arlington County Board! http://bit.ly/a7VwE
  20. @sm1else Have you worked with anyone in Arlington Co. about the car? We have had zero luck on the board level and with regular employees.
