Calling All Alexandrians: Join a Community Conversation!
The City is launching a new initiative, "What's Next, Alexandria?," to begin a community conversation about how Alexandrians can best participate in shaping the city's future.
The first step is to a take poll with just 10 short questions on what you think are the most important issues and ways the City can better engage its residents. You have a month to take the poll so be sure to share with your friends, neighbors and colleagues.
Once you've finished, share your ideas and start a conversation on our Ideas forum. You can also vote on other ideas you think would improve civic engagement in Alexandria.
At a kickoff meeting in November, you'll be invited to discuss the poll results, and the challenges and opportunities for improving the participatory experience in Alexandria.

On Tuesday September 4th, the transformation of one of Community Lodgings’ five apartment buildings will begin – a full-fledged renovation! When I took over as Executive Director seven years ago, I set a long-term goal to ensure all our families lived in safe, comfortable homes. Over the years, out of sheer financial necessity, I was forced to take a “band-aid” approach to building repairs. Seven years later, with help from HomeAid Northern Virginia, Pulte Homes and the City of Alexandria, our long-term goal becomes reality. 
A few weeks ago, a small group of "civic hackers" met in a conference room at ForumOne Communications in Alexandria to discuss what kind of applications they should build as a part of the Northern Virginia Brigade of Code for America.
