					<description><![CDATA[Sierra Club’s Potomac River Group, EcoAction Arlington, and Faith Alliance for Climate Solutions Arlington Hub are alarmed that the One Rosslyn project is moving forward with minimal sustainability requirements and contrary to the County’s recently adopted Climate Resolution and its long-term climate goals. Penzance is not participating in the Green Building Incentive Policy. We do not believe this decision absolves Penzance from its obligation to meet core Arlington community climate-related needs and values through the site plan process. These values are not reflected by current standard site plan conditions. ]]></description>
