• City Council, County Supervisors look to increase collaboration (cvillerightnow.com) — Local leaders from Charlottesville and Albemarle County are pushing for deeper collaboration on regional transit, revenue-sharing, and communication with UVA, which could shape funding and transportation options for city residents. At their joint meeting, officials debated how CARTA should share power, whether the decades-old revenue-sharing agreement still feels fair, and how often the boards and university should meet to coordinate plans.
   

• AFT's Farmers Market Celebration names 2026 winners (agdaily.com) — Charlottesville City Market has been named the fourth-best farmers market in the nation, bringing fresh recognition—and potential new shoppers and support—to a staple of downtown Saturdays. Organizers say the honor reflects the passion of local vendors who feed the community, support area farms, and help make Charlottesville a more vibrant, connected place to live.
   

• Federal judge upholds Virginia in-state tuition pathway for some immigrant students (29news.com) — A federal judge has upheld Virginia’s Tuition Equity Pathway, keeping in-state tuition available for many immigrant and undocumented students who meet education and tax requirements, including those in the Charlottesville area. Local advocates say the ruling eases fears for students at places like UVA and Piedmont Virginia Community College, where the difference between in-state and out-of-state rates can determine whether college is financially possible.
