No need to tell the Board - it is virtually a done deal. They decided a long time ago to build that streetcar, and although they have been going through the motions of soliciting community input, there was never really a chance of it not being approved. They may allow Tejada to vote against it, so he can show support to the Latino community that is concerned about affordable housing being lost, and Garvey might vote against it too, since she is running for reelection and wants to show that she is "independent." But that is all choreography by the single political party that runs Arlington, and then streetcar would be approved by a 3-2 vote, the Board having shown "independence" and a "diversity of viewpoints." There isn't a snowball's chance in hell that the streetcar is not going to be approved.
