TOSCANO SPONSORS TOWN
MEETING
 
Charlottesville - Worried that traffic in this area could become as congested as Northern Virginia?  Concerned that we
are building too few roads?  Or too
many?  That we are not doing enough to
promote mass transit or rail?  Do you
think we need to do more locally?  Should
the state consider new sources of revenue for transportation?  If these issues are important to you, please
join Delegate David Toscano and others for a discussion of these important
issues.  Delegate Toscano has organized a
town hall meeting to be held on June 16th beginning at 7pm at the Albemarle County Office Building at 1600 5th St. Extended.  Barbara Reese, Deputy Secretary
of Transportation, will present Gov. Kaine’s proposals for new sources of
revenue.  Public comment will be taken.  
 
Gov. Tim Kaine has called the General Assembly to return to Richmond for a Special Session on Transportation on June 23rd.  There will be a number of proposals that will
be evaluated and amended.  “I believe
strongly that public input and engagement will help the process of addressing
our transportation problems,” Toscano stated.  “This forum will serve both to educate citizens about our challenges and
potentially generate new ideas for addressing the issues.” 
 
If you would like further information about the event,
please contact Delegate Toscano at deldtoscano at house.state.va.us or by phone at (434) 220-1660.
