** Here's our roundup of "must-read" posts from the week:
------------------------------------------------------------
Happy Saturday, folks, and congratulations on making it through a very long election week. Here at GGWash, we're taking a break from the national stories to focus on the local elections that matter right here at home. Check out our roundup to see where urbanist candidates won in DC.
Hard though it may be to believe, things that are not the election are happening too. Virginia's new rail authority, a planning body that will manage the state's rail infrastructure, met for the first time last week. The group will be able to make long-range transportation plans for the state outside the political process.
Over in Montgomery County, the council overrode County Executive Marc Elrich's veto of a bill providing tax credits to developers building apartments over Metro stations. Proponents hope the bill will address the county's housing shortage while encouraging transit-centric growth.
Speaking of transit-centric growth, take a look inside the task force that crafted a plan to transform Tysons into a walkable urban center as the plan marks its 10th anniversary.
Finally, have you noticed that there are a lot of LGBTQ urbanists? Correspondent Wyatt Gordon explores the ways in which the urbanist and queer communities are kindred spirits.
