And if you 6 would, please, stand with me and join me in the 7 Pledge of Allegiance. 8 [INSERT - AGENDA] Neal R. Gross and Co., Inc. (202) 234-4433 Washington DC www.nealrgross.com 6 1 (Pledge of Allegiance.) 2 REPORT OF CHAIRMAN 3 CHAIRMAN BRYANT: Thank you. For all 4 in attendance, please note that today's meeting 5 is being live streamed on the ncpc.gov website. 6 We do have a quorum and so we'll call the meeting 7 to order. And we will proceed per the agenda 8 that has been publicly noticed. 9 Agenda Item 1 is the Report of the 10 Chairman. And I'll just make a couple of things. 11 But first I'll say that yesterday a number of us 12 were able to spend at least a couple of hours at 13 the NIST campus in Gaithersburg. And we very 14 much appreciate Phil Neuberg and Susan Cantilli 15 for their hospitality. 16 As you know, on today's agenda is the 17 Master Plan for the NIST campus, which is an 18 almost 600 acre campus and 4,000 employees. It's 19 a well laid out campus. They have a lot of open 20 space. 21 They do have a number of facilities 22 challenges and so we hope our master planning Neal R. Gross and Co., Inc. (202) 234-4433 Washington DC www.nealrgross.com 7 1 efforts will help and support them in that 2 effort. So we very much appreciated our NIST 3 hosts yesterday. 4 [INSERT - NIST FIELD TRIP DOCUMENTS] Neal R. Gross and Co., Inc. (202) 234-4433 Washington DC www.nealrgross.com 8 1 The second thing is I'll note that 2 every April the Commission reaffirms or changes 3 its officers. And this is -- it's hard to 4 believe but I'm in my ninth year. And this is my 5 last year as Chair of the Commission, and my term 6 will expire in January of 2019. 7 So this year we have to, in 8 anticipation of the transition, in working with 9 the White House and the Office of Personnel in 10 their timely naming of a successor, we were 11 thinking about that as we are doing our election 12 of Vice Chairman and the appointment of an 13 Executive Committee so that we can have as smooth 14 a transition as possible and maintain respect for 15 the Federal District partnership as well that 16 actually works so well. 17 So with that, that which is up for 18 actual nomination and vote is the office of Vice 19 Chair. And so is there a nomination? 20 ELECTION OF VICE CHAIRMAN AND APPOINTMENT 21 OF THIRD MEMBER TO THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE 22 COMMISSIONER DIXON: Yes, Mr. Chair, Neal R. Gross and Co., Inc. (202) 234-4433 Washington DC www.nealrgross.com 9 1 I would like to nominate Thomas Gallas to be a 2 Vice Chair consistent with your explanation that 3 we've got to make some particular changes. So I 4 would like to make that motion, please. 5 CHAIRMAN BRYANT: It's been moved by 6 Commissioner Dixon of the District that Tom 7 Gallas would be the Vice Chair for the upcoming 8 year. Is there a second to that? 9 COMMISSIONER WRIGHT: Second. 10 CHAIRMAN BRYANT: The nominations are 11 closed. All in favor of Mr. Gallas being the 12 Vice Chair of the National Capital Planning 13 Commission for a year hence say aye. 14 (Chorus of aye.) 15 CHAIRMAN BRYANT: Any opposed? 16 (No audible response.) 17 CHAIRMAN BRYANT: Thank you. 18 COMMISSIONER WRIGHT: Do I get to move 19 my chair so I still sit next to him? He keeps 20 bragging about how he keeps me in line. 21 COMMISSIONER GALLAS: That's true. 22 Somebody has to. Neal R. Gross and Co., Inc. (202) 234-4433 Washington DC www.nealrgross.com 10 1 CHAIRMAN BRYANT: So with that, thank 2 you, Tom. And Tom will ensure that there is 3 federal leadership of a federal agency in the 4 event there is not a timely reappointment, which 5 is sometimes the case. 6 So then, as the Chair's prerogative, 7 although I seek your consent, the appointment of 8 the Executive Committee. And so the Chair and 9 the Vice Chair are automatically on the Executive 10 Committee. 11 And so I would like to keep Mr. Dixon 12 as the District representative on the Executive 13 Committee. He's currently on the Executive 14 Committee. So I don't see an objection to that. 15 There's a head nod. 16 And so I would like to thank Mr. May 17 for his service on the Executive Committee. And 18 just so you know, the Executive Committee, it's 19 principle activity is to set the agenda for each 20 meeting. It's not much more than that. And so 21 it consists of about a very exciting five minute 22 call once a month. And so, but thank you for Neal R. Gross and Co., Inc. (202) 234-4433 Washington DC www.nealrgross.com 11 1 that. Thank you, Mr. May. 2 Agenda Item Number 2 is the Report of 3 Executive Director, Mr. Acosta. 4 REPORT OF EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR 5 MR. ACOSTA: Thank you, Mr. Chairman. 6 I just have two quick announcements to make. 7 First, we are holding two open houses for the 8 public to learn more about the update to the 9 Comprehensive Plan's Park and Open Space Element, 10 which the Commission authorized last month. 11 The first open house will take place 12 on Wednesday, April 11, from 6:00 to 7:30 p.m. 13 and the second will take place on Thursday, April 14 12, from 10:30 a.m. through noon. Both open 15 houses will be held here at the NCPC offices. 16 Also, we're accepting public comments 17 through May 7 of next month. And you can find 18 more information as well as download the document 19 on our website. 20 Finally, I would also like to note 21 that urban planner Stacy Woods retired from the 22 agency last month. Stacy spent 17 years at NCPC Neal R. Gross and Co., Inc. (202) 234-4433 Washington DC www.nealrgross.com 12 1 and most recently worked on the Federal Capital 2 Improvements Program. And we wish Stacy all the 3 best in his retirement. That's it. 4 CHAIRMAN BRYANT: Any questions for 5 Mr. Acosta? Agenda Item Number 3 is the 6 legislative update. Ms. Schuyler? 7 LEGISLATIVE UPDATE 8 MS. SCHUYLER: Thank you, Mr. 9 Chairman.

The building stones on the tour are representative of the development of the Ameri­ can dimension stone industry with respect to geology, quarrying techniques, and style over more than two centuries. Details are provided for locally quarried stones used for the earliest buildings in the capital, including A quia Creek sandstone (U.S. Capitol and Patent Office Building), Seneca Red sandstone (Smithsonian Castle), Cockeysville Marble (Washington Monument), and Piedmont bedrock (lockkeeper's house).

  • What's out There Weekend
    September 25-26, 2010 What’s Out There Weekend Washington, D.C. September 2010 Dear TCLF Visitor, Welcome to What’s Out There Weekend! The materials in this booklet will tell you all you need to know about engaging in this exciting event, the first in a series which we hope to continue in other cities throughout the United States. On September 25-26 in Washington, D.C., TCLF will host What’s Out There Weekend, providing residents and visitors an opportunity to discover and explore more than two dozen free, publicly accessible sites in the nation’s capital. During the two days of What’s Out There Weekend, TCLF will offer free tours by expert guides. Washington, D.C. has one of the nation’s great concentrations of designed landscapes – parks, gardens and public spaces – laid out by landscape architects or designers. It’s an unrivaled legacy that stretches back more than 200 years and includes Pierre L’Enfant’s plan for the city, Frederick Law Olmsted, Sr.’s design for the U.S. Capitol grounds and Dan Kiley’s plaza at the National Gallery of Art. Throughout the weekend, expert guides will lead tours that shed new light on some of the city’s most iconic landscapes and introduce you to places you may not have known before. TCLF’s goal is to make visible these sites and their stories just like the capital city’s great buildings, monuments and memorials. The What’s Out There Weekend initiative dovetails with the web-based What’s Out There (WOT), the first searchable database of the nation’s historic designed landscapes.

AAG’s mission is to collect and make available for research use unique, high-quality images of and documentation relating to a wide variety of cultivated gardens throughout the United States that are not documented elsewhere since historic, designed, and cultural landscapes are subject to change, loss, and destruction. In this way, AAG strives to preserve and highlight a meaningful compendium of significant aspects of gardening in the United States for the benefit of researchers and the public today and in the future. Notable Highlights • Smithsonian Gardens (SG) hired Cindy Brown as its new Horticulture Collections Management and Education Manager! In addition to overseeing AAG’s operations, Cindy is establishing a comprehensive educational program for SG that will provide learning opportunities that highlight Smithsonian Gardens as well as AAG holdings. • Our Smithsonian unit is now called Smithsonian Gardens; this name replaces our former title, Horticulture Services Division. This name is much more easily recognizable to the public as well as to the Smithsonian community and will help us ‘brand’ our operational and programming activities.

    Appendix C - Compiled Public Comments United States Department of the Interior NATIONAL PARK SERVICE Interior Region 1- National Capital Area 1100 Ohio Drive, S.W. Washington, D.C. 20242 IN REPLY REFER TO: 10.D (NCA-LP) September 7, 2020 Marcel Acosta Executive Director National Capital Planning Commission 401 9th Street, N.W., Suite 500 Washington, D.C. 20004 RE: Comments Draft Environment Element Section G: Policies Related to Tree Canopy and Vegetation Dear Mr. Acosta: The National Park Service (NPS) has reviewed the draft Federal Environment Element: Policies Related to Tree Canopy and Vegetation (Section G) and offers the following general comments with specific comments attached. This section of the comprehensive plan is vital to the NPS as it recognizes the importance of trees and vegetation for their aesthetic appeal, for their role as habitat for wildlife, and for the quality of life benefits they bring to our communities. The heart of the NPS mission is to understand, maintain, restore, and protect the integrity of the natural resources, processes, and values of the parks while providing meaningful and appropriate opportunities to enjoy them. Similarly, Section G commits each agency to preservation and protection trees and vegetation while meeting the goals and objectives of its projects. However, the draft policy may be too prescriptive and rigidly formulaic for agencies to meet in certain specific circumstances. For example, the restoration of a cultural landscape may require removal of trees and vegetation to return it to its original historic character, and the addition of new trees or LID measures at that site may not be appropriate.
