Present were Mayor Robert E. Sevila, Council- members, Charles A. Bos, Arl Curry, .Mar.ylou Hill, Brian T, Kelley, John W. Tolbert, Jr. and Charles Williams; also, Assistant Town Manager Stephen Owen, Town Engineer Tom Mason, Planning Director, Martha Semmes and Zoning Director, Mark Nelis. A motion was made by Mr. Tolbert and seconded by Mr. Williams that the minutes of the January 23, 1985 regular meeting be approved. Aye: Councilmembers Bos, Curry, Hill, Kelley, Tolbert, Williams and Mayor Sevila. Nay: None PUBLIC HEARING ON PROPOSED AMENDMENTS TO THE ZONING ORDINANCE AND SUBDIVISION AND LAND DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS REGARDING TOWNHOUSE COURTS AND PARKING LOT LANDSCAPING Planning Director Martha Semmes reported that this legislation reflected changes in the Subdivision and Land' Development Regulations and the Zoning Ordinance which would limit the use of private streets in two situations. The first would allow a private street in large lot, single family developments with a minimum lot size of 20,000 square feet. The second private street allowance would be in townhouse and small lot, •single . family developments with common parking courts. Minimum landscaping requirements would also be required. Mayor Sevila asked if there would be something put into place to assure the maintenance of the private streets. Ms. Semmes said yes, this would be put in place and also a requirement guaranteeing public access for utility and emergency vehicles. The issue of bonding came up. Bonding on private streets is possible, but parking lots need not be bonded according to our regulations. Alton Echols spoke regarding his experience with townhouses in Leesburg and Lovettsville, both with public and private streets. He said that he ran into some problems with the positioning of the townhouses when there was a combination public street/private parking. He stated that there were other problems that need to be addressed. He said aesthetically when one drives up a street and sees a back end of a townhouse unit it doesn't look great. A privacy fence or tree buffer would help. Mayor Sevila noted that public comments were invited on both the amendments to the Zoning Ordinance and the Subdivision and Land Development Regulations. Joby Reynolds, a resident of the Shenandoah Street area, agreed with Mr. Echols that a 2.5 space parking limitation is not nearly enough. He said the parking in Brandon is very insufficient. Off street parking is ideal if it is close enough to the residence, once it is more than four to five units away, it will not be utilized by those residents. On another subject, he stated that homeowner 's associations are only as good as the people that are active in them. Also, now there are many renters who are not bound to the homeowner' s association rules, only through the owners. Something should be written that would require renters to abide by homeowner's association rules. The public hearing was called closed. A motion was made by Mrs. Hill and seconded by Mr. Williams that the amend- ments be referred to the Finance and Administration Committee for further consideration. Aye: Councilmembers Bos, Curry, Hill, Kelley, Tolbert, Williams and Mayor Sevila Nay: None JUL101 448 i.+ MINUTES OF JULY 10, 1985 MEETING COUNCILMEMBERS COMMENTS Mr. Bos reported that the Board of Architectural Review had met at a special meeting on June 27, 1985, but that he did not attend and that Mr. Minor's written report summarized this meeting. He did state that White' s Department store wanted to expand and there was some concern about the • design that had been presented. Also, to date the Bluemont Concert Series has had three concerts and they have been well attended. Mr. Williams attended the Community Development and Economic Policies ' Committee of the Virginia Municipal League in Richmond. Eight communities were represented at that meeting. They discussed issues to develop a policy statement for the VML to present to the Legislature for next year's session. He said Leesburg is thriving where several other communities are hurting. Water issues were discussed, along with highway funding, school funding, the Certification Program, the Main Street Program, the Urban , Enterprise zones, etc. Mrs. Hill gave her report on the Cable Commission meeting. They now, have 2,060 cable customers. The charge for dropping premium channels was eliminated. Mr. Curry stated the Planning Commission had approved at its July 3 meeting the preliminary plat for the Paxton Memorial Home subdivision. The subdivision has lots of 10,000 sq. ft. or more. The Leesburg Office Park preliminary development plan was also brought up. Several events surfaced where it was thought that all was settled and pieces of correspondence were then received on the contrary. Mr. Kelley attended the Economic Development Advisory Commission meeting of July 10. All members were reappointed and Tom Nalls was re- elected chairman of the committee. One member would like to be a liaison between the EDAC and the Airport Commission. Bruce Roberts was elected to be this liaison. Stephen Owen covered the state certification program. j The Arthur Young Company is doing the video, an update was given on the marketing brochure, and the Main Street Program was discussed. The commit- tee goals were presented and should be available to Council.in August. Also discussed was setting up a booth for August Court days promoting the town. Mr. Tolbert responded to Mr. Kelley that he would advise Bruce Roberts of the Airport Commission meeting to be held July 11.. .He also reported that Wirt Street was becoming a "speedway" and that something must be done to control this. Comments arose on the temporary structure being put up in the Lee's. t_ parking lot. Mr. Echols stated that this was to house a fish/vegetable stand. Mr. Bos said that temporary structures are not addressed in the zoning ordinance and definitely should be considered for amendment to that ordinance. Mr. Minor said that Mark Nelis is addressing this and will look further. To date all tem- porary structures are either removed or boarded up for the winter months. Mayor Sevila commented that the flags should be flown on the 4th of July holiday and that legislation to that effect should be written and . approved by the Council so that in future years the flag is displayed on that holiday. MANAGER'S REPORT Bids are being accepted for health, life and disability insurance, in compliance with the procurement act. Industrial Management Corporation assisted in preparing the proposals for these insurances.

Mr. Bos commented on plat design . showing trees of certain size. Mark Nelis answered that on most preliminary plats large groupings of large hardwoods could be indicated for preservation purposes. Mr. Bos - then asked Mr. Nelis to go over the state code requirements for preliminary plats. Mr. Nelis stated that essentially the code says that a record plat shall be prepared by a Certified Land Surveyor or Professional Engineer. This is to assure that this plat can be recorded as a correct document:•' A preliminary plat shows generally how you are going to subdivide property and the code states that a land owner, city planner, or landscape architect may prepare a preliminary plan, plat or other study. Mr. Bos asked whether all the requirements that are being put on preli- minary plats for the Planning Commission are necessary. He wondered if this might be overkill for the development community to prepare such a detailed plat initially. Mr. Curry stated that a preliminary plat is not always necessary if the final plat is acceptable. It can be an advantage to the developer to pre pare the detailed preliminary plat, that way the Planning Commission sees a very detailed version and will be less likely to request changes' in things` that would not have been shown on a less detailed preliminary plat. Aye: Councilmembers Bos, Curry, Hill, Kelley, Tolbert, Williams and Mayor Sevila Nay: None JUL108 455 Minutes of July 10, 1985 On a motion by Mrs. Hill and seconded by Mr. Tolbert the following resolution was unanimously adopted: 85-118 - RESOLUTION - AUTHORIZING A.

Aye: Councilmembers Bos, Curry, Hill, Kelley, Tolbert, Williams and Mayor Sevila Nay: None On a motion by Mr. Bos and seconded by Mr. Tolbert the following reso- lution was presented for discussion and consideration: PROPOSED RESOLUTION - AUTHORIZING PARTICIPATION IN THE "MAIN STREET" PROGRAM This resolution was discussed in-depth by the members of the Council. Mr. Williams stated that he did not feel that, there was adequate time to prepare the application and that the opportunity may arise again in future years to apply for this program. Mr. Bos supported submission of the application now. He, said the program works very well and is worth going after. He asked someone from the Downtown Business Association to speak to the Council on the efforts they have made toward implementing their share of this program. , Norman Myers of the Downtown Business Association came forward to speak. He stated that approximately $10,000 had been committed plus office space. A letter to the editor from December, 1984 issue of the Loudoun Times Mirror was then read. The author spoke highly of the efforts by the downtown merchants to make the Christmastime in Leesburg, so special. Mr. Myers stated that this is typical of the type of ambiance the local merchants are trying to create. He ,feels that although the town is already a very nice place, we must press forward to maintain and improve it further. The DBA wants to expand to be inclusive of those merchants outside of the downtown area. The project manager could be a part of the entire economic development scene in Leesburg. Joby Reynolds stated that he felt the term "Main Street" was somewhat ambiguous. He said that Main Street several years ago took in almost the entire town. Now the historic district more or less defines the downtown area. Main Street is where the downtown business community is apparent to public streets. The East Market Street corridor is Main Street Leesburg. JUL109. 1 456 MINUTES OF JULY 10, 1985 A roll call vote was requested by Mr. Williams.
