Arena Update. Although a bill providing necessary state authorization for the project was passed by the state House of Delegates earlier this month, the issue has stalled in the state Senate; the legislative session is scheduled to end on March 9. The City also currently has two further information sessions scheduled on March 2 and March 6. See https://www.alexandriava.gov/EntertainmentDistrict. We expect that the PELT committee will provide an update at the meeting.
