Yesterday my copy of Tuesday’s Charlottesville Daily Progress arrived via mail and it was a thrill to smell the paper and to remember my early days as a journalist. Though I was never an employee, I had stories appear for nine years from 2009 to 2018 and I’m glad to have been part of the first rough draft of history. 

I am grateful there are many sources of information about what happens in this community and glad I’ve got enough paying subscribers myself to keep me practicing my brand of journalism here at Charlottesville Community Engagement. I’m Sean Tubbs, making sure you check out the ‘reading material’ at the bottom of every edition. 

In today’s installment:

* Charlottesville Area Transit starts off the new year with new resources

* A work group has created by-laws for a future Charlottesville Albemarle Regional Transit Authority 

* Charlottesville is seeking people to join boards and commissions and applications are due July 31
