Good afternoon. My name is Darryl Nirenberg. 22 years ago, Lori and I moved to Alexandria. It was Lori who pushed to live here. Her reasoning? Because Alexandria is more than a nice place to live. It is a community.

My name is Darryl Nirenberg and today, I filed to run for Alexandria City Council. My wife, Lori, and I settled here twenty-two years ago for many of the same reasons that attract so many to our city.

“Alexandria is a great place. But in recent years, our city government has lost its way. Adult housing on school grounds. Road diets. More density in the midst of a pandemic. None of this makes sense,” said Darryl.

Under consideration is building adult housing on school grounds – similar to what was being investigated for Douglas MacArthur and George Mason Elementary Schools. Hopefully, co-location will be taken off the table once and for all at ACPS schools
