  • THE LEGISLATIVE LINE the Legislative Update from VPAR Number 1 January 29, 2018 the More Things Change, the More They Stay the Same
    VIRGINIA PENINSUA ASSOCIATION OF REALTORS® THE LEGISLATIVE LINE The Legislative Update from VPAR Number 1 January 29, 2018 The more things change, the more they stay the same. With two full weeks in the books (and 44 days to go), the 2018 General Assembly session sometimes has felt like déjà vu all over again. In the House of Delegates, the new balance between the chastened GOP majority and rejuvenated Democratic caucus is not translating into waves of Democratic bills clearing the subcommittees and heading for the House floor. Because big-ticket issues like the state budget, Medicaid expansion and repealing the 2015 electric utility rate freeze probably will not be decided until late in the session, these early weeks have been dominated by many bills’ early deaths. As many of the freshmen in the House learned the hard way this week, even seemingly benign bills can go down in a flash if lawmakers see a flaw, whether it is a legal technicality, an unintended consequence or a similar law that already exists. And more seasoned lawmakers have not shied away from telling the recent arrivals that, even though they may be new, the Capitol’s perennial policy debates are not. MEANWHILE…the REALTOR® legislative agenda has garnered significant traction in the past few days. Read below for more details. And stay tuned. Look for the LEGISLATIVE LINE each week until adjournment. 1. Team Legislation – Delegate Chris Peace / Senator Glen Sturtevant HB 862 (Del.

  • THE ALPINE SUN SHOPPER – January 7, 2010 Tattered Tidbits: Alpine Historical Society the HISTORY of OLD HIGHWAY 80 – LEE
    THE ALPINE SUN SHOPPER – January 7, 2010 Tattered Tidbits: Alpine Historical Society THE HISTORY OF OLD HIGHWAY 80 – LEE HIGHWAY Before Interstate 8 was built there was U.S. Highway 80. In 1915 California built this highway from San Diego to Yuma, Arizona. In Alpine US Highway 80 went through Arnold Way, which was the main road in Alpine at the time. This highway eventually became a transcontinental highway that went all the way to Savannah, Georgia and eventually to Tybee Island, Georgia on the Atlantic coast. On February 12, 1919 a group of fourteen men met for lunch in the Hotel Roanoke in Roanoke, Virginia. They established the Lee Highway Association. They named the highway after Robert E. Lee who was a General in the Civil War. Nine months later on December 3, 1919 more than five hundred men, from five states, met in Roanoke to figure out exactly where this highway would be built. Their purpose was ”To promote the proper location, construction and maintenance, according to modern plans and specifications, of a great National Highway…” They established milestones in cities and towns across America. These milestones measured highway miles for maps and guide books. The State of California officially designated U.S. Highway 80 (Lee Highway) as an official state historic route on October 21, 2006. There were several ribbon cuttings along the route starting at Seaport Village. Going east they stopped in La Mesa, El Cajon, the Town Hall in Alpine and ended up at the Viejas Outlet Center. A car caravan with classic cars followed the route.
