"GENERAL PLAN FOR OFF-STREET PARKING AREAS
LEESBURG, VIRGINIA •
This statement together with a certain map dated December 5,
1955 and titled "General Plan for Off-Street Parking, Central
District , Leesburg-, Virginia," comprise the Master Plan for a
system of Parking Areas to serve the central business district ,
a part of the Master Town Plan of Leesburg .
This plan expresses the recommendations of the Town Planning '
Commission as to the desirable location and general character of
off-street parking areas in relation to present and future busi-. .
ness development . It is meant to be a statement of policy that . .
in allifuture development within the business district , whether
public• or private , provision shall be made for parking areas sub-
stantially in accordance with this plan.
In general , the plan calls for the setting aside of spaces
within• the interior and to the rear of each block in the business
district for- parking , loading, and - service purposes. Parking is
to be primarily for the general public , and there are to be
pedestrian passageways between the parking areas and the main
business streets . The property fronting on the latter streets .
is to •be retained primarily for business purposes. As shown on
the plan, the "Business Building Areas" areintended to indicate
the gross areas- within which business building and activities shall
be located . -
The plan is intended to be carried out systematically step by
step over an indefinite period of years , as the necessary parcels
of property can be secured and developed .
This plan is not intended to commit the Town to the public
acquisition or development of the parking areas. Neither shall
adoption of the plan be interpreted as an appropriation by the
Town of any land for public use . Public- acquisition of any lands
for such purposes shall be by dedication, purchase , or condemnation
as provided by law.
This plan provides a gross parking area of 9. 1 acres, and a
gross business building area of 6.4 acres , within the territory
shown on the plan.

This plan with the accompanying map was duly adopted by the
Town Planning Commission as a part of the Leesburg Master Town
Plan, this 6th day of January, 1956.
