CBC History

Click here for the complete text of the Dexter History of the CBC. A must read for anyone interested in Falls Church and how it came to be "the City" we know and love. The history of the CBC and the City of Falls Church has developed hand in hand and they have long been tied together. This History was last updated in 1993. It's interesting to note that development density was a key issue then, as now. We are working on an update that will cover the "next 15 years" -from 1993 to 2008. We'll post it as soon as it's ready. Until then READ ON & ENJOY Sincerely, Jody Acosta CBC Pres.  9/20/2008

Thanks for visiting CBC on the web. Chances are you're here to find out more about us. The CBC was founded almost fifty years ago by some forward-thinking folks who put the interests of the City above partisan politics. The CBC was founded in order to establish a first-class school system in our newly independent City, and to identify quality candidates for City Council and help them seek election. (Now the CBC works to find candidates for School Board, too, since they're no longer appointed positions.) After almost fifty years, these are still two of the main reasons we exist.
