CLPA List of Upcoming DC Area Policy Meetings (December 19th-December 23rd)

Happy Holidays! It's the end of the year! As such most legislative bodies across the area are either on recess or attempting to finish up their work for the year. The DC Council is one such legislative body attempting to finish up their work this week. Tomorrow the Council will hold a Legislative meeting where they will vote on a number of important bills. A number of these bills CLPA has been following.

On the consent agenda bills of interest for final vote will be:

This will be the final legislative meeting of the DC Council this year. The next time the Council will meet to discuss and vote on legislation will be on January 3, 2023. A full list of bills up for vote can be found below in the agenda

There is no significant legislative activity in DC area legislative bodies in Maryland and Virginia. The Arlington County Board of Supervisors will hold a meeting, but the meeting will consist primarily of zoning issues. None of the area school boards will meet this week.

We will not be providing an update next week, so CLPA's next update will come during the new year. With state legislatures starting their sessions, we will soon begin covering state legislature activity related to local policy. Here is our list of the most important meetings occurring around the DC Area this week.
