He stated that the Route 15 pass through town is not the most conducive and a bypass could be beneficial. He urged the town and county work closer together in trying to come up with the best solution for all involved.

Sandra Carlson of 1105 Nichols Place, wished to address an inbalance within the Town of Leesburg.

Councilmember Tolbert read the following resolution of respect: RESOLUTION OF RESPECT WHEREAS, George J. Babson, former Mayor, town councilman and well- known resident of Leesburg, died at his home on January 28, 1988; and WHEREAS, Mr. Babson served with distinction as Mayor of the Town of Leesburg from August of 1959 to June of 1961; and WHEREAS, Mr. Babson served as a member of the Leesburg Town Council from 1961 to 1962: THEREFORE, RESOLVED that the Mayor and members of the Council of the Town of 'Leesburg -do extend their sympathy to his son and to all who knew him; and BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that this Resolution of Respect be spread upon the minutes of this meeting and that a copy be sent to his son. The preceding resolution was adopted into the minutes unanimously. Mayor Sevila then awarded a Certificate of Appreciation to Thomas Poupard and D. D. Jones. a MINUTES OF THE FEBRUARY 10, 1988 MEETING Mr. Poupard came forward to accept the certificate in his behalf. He is leaving the Town of Leesburg and will join private enterprise. The Mayor expressed : appreciation of the good work Mr. Poupard did on behalf of the town and council. PUBLIC HEARING ON REZONING APPLICATION #ZM-96 BY PORETSKY BUILDING GROUP OF McLEAN, VIRGINIA Jay Hicks gave an overview of this application stating that one concern was the street layout for the subdivision was not adequate. There were two applications being processed simultaneously, a 1 preliminary plat application and rezoning application. Adding a larger buffer zone was one viable alternative. Working with the applicant to agree to proffers was one major objective. Placing the parking properly and being sensitive to the King Street access was an important issue. Councilmember Leach asked how firm the name Ann Street was since an Anne Street already exists in Leesburg. Mr. Hicks said that they are aware of this and will have to go through the County for street name approval at a point after the preliminary plat application. Steven Robin a representative of the Poretsky Company, Inc. made a brief presentation saying that it is difficult to take a property in town that everyone is used to seeing a certain way and asking for a rezoning to change that. It is known, however, that the town will grow both in this area and other areas. He went on to say that the developer is being very sensitive to the appearance of the property from Route 15. The buffer area will be about fifty feet and a landscape plan will be presented to the town for approval. This will include a berm with plantings. There will be strict architectural guidelines which will enhance the appearance of the neighborhood. Proffers will include road improvements, and restrictions concerning buffering, uses and architect- ural design along with a recreational contribution for Ida Lee Park. The public hearing was closed at this time since there was no one present to address this application. On a motion by Brian Kelley and seconded by John Tolbert,it was moved that this application be referred to the Finance and Administration Committee meeting of February 16, 1988. Aye: Councilmembers Clem, Curry, Kelley, Leach, Tolbert and Mayor Sevila Nay: None PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER THE LEESBURG SOUTH CONCEPT PLAN BY WASHINGTON VIRGINIA TRADITIONAL DEVELOPMENT SITES, INC. , FOR AMENDMENT OF THE TOWN PLAN Martha Semmes presented the staff report as follows: This application is for approval of the concept plan for the Leesburg South development. Approximately 337 acres are involved in this plan, which includes an elementary school site, a church site, 1,000 dwelling units and 100 elderly units, 156,000 s.f. of commercial space fronting the Country Club subdivision and 442,000 s.f. of office and hotel space behind the commercial center. The Planning Commission recommended to Council approval of this application subject to a number of conditions. The transportation plan, buffer area, the elderly housing proposed, the elementary school site, minimum lot size, resolution of citizen concern and housing mix were all considered in the conditions. Mr. Minor stated that several meetings had been held to discuss the transportation plan for this area. Although no decisions have been made, this will be addressed with great care and sensitivity for the area involved. The toll road plays an important part in this plan since it is a limited access roadway. The town plan must undergo amendments to accommodate the toll road and the new road alignments that it will create. . MINUTES OF THE FEBRUARY 10, 1988 MEETING Charles Ottinger representative of the developers of Leesburg South gave a brief history of the concept plan. He summarized results of meetings and wished to have the following read into the record: October 15, 1987, to the Planning Commission Dear Sirs, On behalf of the owners of Leesburg South and the Development Team we would like to express our appreciation for the time and efforts of the planning commission and zoning committee in reviewing the Leesburg South concept plan over several weeks leading to its recommendation to the town Council on October 1, 1987. As recommended by several members of the planning commission immediately after approving the resolution recommending the Leesburg South Concept plan I am writing this letter to clarify the intent of the commission concerning the last paragraph of the resolution recommending that the concept plan be returned to the commission for review and recommendation if the plan must be substantially revised in response to a change in the proposed alignment of Battlefield Parkway (Route 654). This would come into effect only if Route 654 is moved substantially south of the location on the concept plan which would bisect Leesburg South's residential area. If Route 654 parallels Masons Lane or is located south of Masons Lane this would not require return to the Plannning Commission for review. In the event Route 654 moves substantially to the south and bisects the residential area of Leesburg south, then the recommendation to return to planning commission for review and recommendation would be required. The only areas considered for substantial revision would be the residential area for this would be the only area affected. The mixed use center location and size would not be affected. I believe this-sets forth the discussion I had with at least four members of the commission immediately subsequent to the recommendation for approval- on October 1, 1987, please clarify if you disagree. Respectfully yours, Charles Ottinger. - ' Mr. Ottinger went on to show some of the changes that had been made which are the result of recommendations by the school board and considerations taken by the developer. At this point Mr. Ottinger turned the meeting over to John Picard, the planner for this concept plan. John Picard, planner for Leesburg South, again pointed out the boundaries of the plan stating that the -concept is to build a -community where one has schools, shopping areas and churches right in the area. The town plan calls for a planned community in this area. He detailed the commercial area and its relation to the residential area. He•also went into some detail on floor/area ratios and how they relate to this area. The elderly housing is proposed for those persons who are mobile but no longer can keep up a large, single family dwelling. This would .be a moderate care facility, consisting of something similar to-a small apartment like complex. Mr. Picard also assured everyone that a comprehensive market study was conducted for the commercial aspect of this development. - - - Hubbard Turner of 1107 Bradfield Drive- stated that he has been following this concept plan for some time now. He is concerned with the mixed use center adjacent to Country-Club and the transportation -- network. There are already- significant -transportation problems and the addition of more development withoutmoreinnovative traffic-patterns will create a real traffic disaster. He agrees with the residential development proposed, but not with the mixed use center. He recommended that the developer work with the Planning Staff to rectify the situation. - - Lawrence Miller a resident of Mason's Lane, addressed Council on the fact that Battlefield Parkway ending in the Route -15 -area is ofconcern to him. He hopes that Mason's Lane is left as is. George Titus a resident of Route 621 also reiterated the traffic problems along Route 621. The traffic has increased significantly and does not adhere to the speed limits posted in the area. MINUTES OF THE FEBRUARY 10, 1988 MEETING Richard Schaeffer,a resident of Route 654, made the point that since the road improvements have occurred on Rt. 621 this has become a major thoroughfare towards-Fairfax County. 'Opening the'area along 654 could promote commercial development and that is not in the best interest of the current residential area. He then asked how long the process takes before a development of this nature is complete. Mr. Picard responded that it would be a 7 to 8 year construction period. Mr. Schaeffer then asked if the character of the community was compatible with the historic nature of Leesburg. Mayor Sevila responded that this would be addressed at a later date. Town Manager Jeffrey Minor added that the town does address the materials used, types of chimneys, etc. to -assure- the quality-of the architecture. - - - Leslie King, a resident of 621, also addressed the transporta- tion issue. He is concerned with the fact that the dual lane highway will empty onto 621, especially so near a school zone. George Atwell, a resident of the corner of Rt. 621 and Mason's Lane agrees with the former speakers regarding the traffic and transportation problems in the area. Since Route 621 is not posted with traffic signs, enforcement of speed limits becomes difficult. Mr. Atwell has requested that the speeds be posted, especially closer to the residential areas. The alignment of the dual lane highway through the area, which will be primarily residential, is not in the best interest of the citizens in the area. Janet Frey, resident of 1110 Rollins Place, also agreed with the transportation issues. Her main concern is that the Boulevard will open up into Country Club Drive. Housing for the elderly should become a stronger consideration for Leesburg. Presently there is nothing for middle income persons. Leesburg should investigate the different financing available for elderly housing. Roy Smith, resident of Route 621 is opposed to the road that will end up near his home. He stated that the truck traffic, along with normal vehicular traffic has increased to the point that exiting a private drive in the area is nearly impossible. Mr. Picard was again called upon to clarify the delineation of the roadway in relation to Mr. Smith's residence. Mr. Atwell asked if additional hearings would be held on the realignment of the roadways. Mayor Sevila answered yes. Mayor Sevila read the following letter from Colonel Grenata into the record: On account of recent illness, I will be unable to attend the hearing on Leesburg South scheduled for this date, at 7:30 p.m. before the Town Council and am therefore submitting this statement for consideration by the Council. I represent 11 owners of my family of the 77 acre tract shown as Section 48, Parcel 72 on the tax maps of Loudoun County. This tract, zoned as R-1 and A-3 is bounded on the north by Route 654 and on the west by Route 621 and is located just south of the Simpson Middle School. This tract is now being farmed, there are no plans to develop this tract at the present. There are no objections to the overall development of Leesburg South, however the owners of this tract oppose any relocation of 654 which will cut through the northern part of this tract. Since there were no further petitioners, the public hearing was closed at this time. •At;togs ;no sq TTTM dID agy •sTq;-uo roizowo; buT;aaw a aq TTTn azag; pue wea;s buTIag;eb sT (Ti1q peoi no; a;PATzd) V6E 11TH a;euas •;zodaz A;TAT;oe-ua;;TIT ag; pamaTAaI aoutw *am Tii5a571 s,zabeuew •;T ;o ;no awed sbuTg; pooh Auew pue papua;;e TTar sen buT;aan{+Tg; ;egg pa;e;s 7511171 ueTzg •aAT;onpozd Alan pue pauue-[d ITan sen 11 •puaNaan ;set ;eaz;az ;uaTTaoxa ue uo iabeuew sq; pue ;3e;S buTuuetd ag; papuawwoo etTAaS .16-A-1171 •;uawwoo ou peq ;zagioy ugor •Ara;enbape Alan ;zodaz uonssTmmoo buTuuetd aq; paaanoo ;zodaz A;TAT;oe egg ;egg pa;e;s TMT5 Tay •buTzeaq egg uo ;nduT ani;TSOd Ann e zo3 g;TwS Aog zW pue 'Aaad •saW 'Ttan;y •zw 'bung •iW 'za3;aegos *saw 9 saw 'zar(TW •1W 'zauzny •IW papuawwoo goea'i za;ung s;uawwoo zagwamtTounop •SSa30z e sen azag; awT; sTg; ;y 'pang aq o; sznoq -rezones buT;Ten pue ;uaT;ed 6u-aq zo3 oTrgnd egg pue uoT;e;uasazd auT; a 103 ;ueoTidde egg pe ueg; mites zoAew auof :Apt' etTAaS zoAew pue ;iagioy 'goeaZ 'AaIrag 'Azzn0 'maw saagwawiTounop :aAy :snotto; se sen uoT;ow egg uo a;OA agy aUON :Aeg etTAaS zoAew- pue ;zagtoy 'goeaZ 'AaITag 'Azzno 'mato saagwewitounop :sAy :snoTlo; se sen pzo;;ez;s apnIouT o; ;uawpuawe aq; uo a;oA agy •ueid annsuagaadwoo egg ung;Tn Tie; suetd ;uawdoIanap ag; leg; eansse ;snw uno; alp pue to;TA sT ;nduT oTTgnd •pazapnsuoo ale s;uawubTie peon egg uT pantonuT suoszad TIe ;egg aznsse o; uFebe panannaz aq o; spaau sTq; ;eq; pa;e;s etTAaS zoAeW •uonssTwwoD buTuuetd egg o; xoeq oh ;ou pue TanaT TTounoo egg ;e Ae;s pinogs sTg; ;eq; pue unoy egg g;nn Kaon Trim Aag; pees ell •passnosTp uaaq TTe peg s;uawubTle peoz agy •TanaT uoTssnmwoD buTuuetd alp ;e passnosTp uaaq peg sTq; JO Tie ;egg pa;e;s zabuT;;O '1w •UOTssTimuoD buTuuetd aq; o; Koeq (pzo;;ez;s pue g;nos bzngsaar) g;oq puss o; uoT;ow eg; puawe o; pa(se uag; Aa1Tax saw •Koeq ;T puss 'a;oA snowTueun Aq 'prnoo TTounoD ;egg ples aouTW *am ;uoTssTmmoo buTuuetd egg o; xoeq pueT AN pue pzo;;ez;s za3az o; Aen zadozd egg ' - ps se Aaiiag zw •pantonuT suazT;To egg ;o ;saaa;uT ;saq ag; uT eq prnon ;egg ueid aq; a;epoww000e o; Az; una buot egg uT 'ptnon Aag; ;egg 'uoTssTwwoD bunuueid egg o; to;;Twgnsaz a g;Tn aazbe ATTe5a1 ;ou Aew pantonuT szadolanap ag; gbnoq; UaAa ;eg; pa;e;s zouTW 'Jig •eaze alT;ua sTg; uT suaa;;ed uoT;e;zodsuez; sq; zo3 sieT;ua;od snoTauA eq; uo szeinoT;zed s,zadoianap ag; pue suoT;epuawwooaz egg uo uoTssnOsTp buInsua sen azagy •Aaiiag zagmawtTounoo Aq papuooas sen uoT;ow agy •ulebe4;e psXooj aq pinogs ueid a1ogn ag; staa; aH •ueid uoT;e;zodsuez; egg ;o esneoeq uoTssTwwoo buTuuetd o; Koeq ob sTg; ;egg panow AzznD zagwawiToanop DMLL22W 8861 '0I AUVOUSad agy do smiling OT ;ue;stssy Tauuoszad 6 T?oun00 ;o NzaTO A;ndaa TT TTounoD 3O KzaTO TT ASE;aaoaa ant;noaxa a ZT ;ue;stssy ;uawdoTanau g butuoz -fi -- - ;ue;stssy ant;ez;stuTmpy 6 II X1aTO buT;uno33V a u 8 I KiaTO But;un000y L Aielaioas 9 -'- Acze;azoas/;stuot;daoaa TEotsaTO/ant;EI;stuTIPY 81 ut2;d2O u u LT- ;ueua;naTZ a 91 ;ueabzag u ST Tezodao0 VT- sseTO ;s1Td a;Entzd a £T a;entzd aoTTod a S ;uepua;;y sa;aw butxzed ;uawaozo;ua ME'I TZ . uot;eazoag g Sized ;o zo;oas TO u TZ aoTTod 3o 3at43 ,.
