Site work and new construction of a recreation facility in Arlington, Virginia. Conceptual plans call for the construction of a recreation facility.

https://www.arlnow.com/2022/11/07/poop-based-power-and-pickleball-are-on-the-bond-referenda/ Some big-ticket items have already grabbed headlines, like the $136 million requested to build a new Arlington Career Center campus and $2 million to design a proposed Arlington Boathouse on the Potomac River near Rosslyn. But there are dozens of other upgrades proposed for facilities that Arlingtonians of all ages use on a regular, and sometimes daily, basis. ______________________________________________________________________________________________ For more than two decades, rowing enthusiasts in Arlington County have actively pursued the development of a community boathouse to provide a home for scholastic rowing programs, local rowing and paddling organizations and other non-motorized users. The County is collaborating with the National Park Service (NPS) through an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) process to determine the best location for the boathouse. The goal of the EIS is to study the sites identified in an earlier NPS feasibility study and determine a preferred alternative that is consistent with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) guidelines and National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA) as well as NPS policies and mandates. Once a site has been determined, the project will fund the development of the management model and formulation of the long-term use arrangement with the NPS and final design of the boathouse. As of December 09, 2022, this project is currently in the FY 2023-2032 CIP . Funding for this project is allotted in the city's capital improvement plan for construction Fy 2024. A firm timeline has not been established; however, construction is scheduled for Fiscal Year 2024. *Project information has been obtained through a public capital improvement plan (CIP). A CIP is a financial schedule for short- and long-range projects which is updated regularly. Information listed in the CIP often evolves based on funding availability and the project details, including timeline and value, are subject to change. The content management team will continue to pursue additional details as they become available.
