Petitioners
Michael Eveges, a resident of 392 Deerpath Avenue, S.W., representing the Foxridge
Homeowners Association (FHOA), addressed the Council. He read a letter addressed to the Town
Council, Manager of Technical Services and the Director of Engineering and Public Works. He
II: explained that this letter was written to call attention to issues related a current and ongoing
at construction by the Pulte Corporation in the Foxridge Subdivision. I
N
.�i., Since responsibility for town policy management was assumed by the Foxridge Homeowners
CO Association Board of Directors, last fall, numerous complaints have been voiced by the homeowners
regarding not only individual home site construction but also construction of common properties located
within the development. In response, the Board of Directors has compiled a list of key issues requiring
an official response from the town.
The letter reads as follows:
The following paragraphs summarize issues of a meeting with concerned residents of the
' community of Foxridge. While other issues exist, these are considered to be the most critiraL The
Foxridge Homeowners Association Board of Directors, respectively request a formal response from the
Town of Leesburg regarding these issues. Please site codes, standards, and/or other legal documents
for reference where appropriate.
1. Water Pressure
„ I
a_ Conformance to code. The FHOA has received numerous complaints regarding low
water pressure within the development. Readings have been taken and under certain conditions the
water pressure in the development does not appear to meet minimum pressure as required by code.
b. Safety. After meetings and discussions with the fire department offiripls, members of
the FHOA Water Pressure Problem Committee report that insufficient water pressure exists to
extinguish a multiple structure fire within the development. The board feels that a certified
independent study is required prior to bond release.
2. Storm Drainage
a. Water damage. The FHOA feels that the drainage ditch abutting the W&OD 1Cke trail
will not provide sufficient storm drainage in the event of heavy rains and that this situation will result
in extensive erosion and water damage to the properties adjacent to the ditch.
b. Safety. The F'HOt.- is also concerned with the health hazards associated with the lack
of proper drainage. Stir. : :-r.F.. : ;.culling from insufficient drainage ::an provide breeding ground

problem in vprinl,s araae of tha rnm.n,,..:t arnaZgnel_. :-, ♦--:97`"--,-'-;1,-7_-_-----3 ., - 4!..c s—nrung-
1 L Again, the board feels that a certified independent study is required prior to bond release.
3. Street Lighting
a- Maintenance. It is the understanding of the FHOA, that a street lighting system in
Foxridge will not be maintained by the town and is currently the responsibility of the FHOA. It is
further understood that Foxridge is the only community in Loudoun County that is responsible for its
own street lighting because Virginia Power Company will not support the maintenance of the current
lighting fixtures. The FHOA would like to know why such fixtures were approved by the town and
why homeowners were not informed prior to settlement. The FHOA feels that the lighting fixtures
should be replaced and that their maintenance should be assumed by the town.
224 -�
Minutes of February 28, 1989
b. Safety. The FHOA feels that it cannot and should not accept the liability for which
inherent risks a persons safety caused bylighting fixtures or lack thereof over which whose installation
they had no controL The intersection at Catoctin Circle and Foxridge Drive and the stretch of Deerpath
Avenue in front of the swimming pool are particularly hazardous for their lack of proper lighting. The
FHOA feels that its members are entitled to the same services and protection due any other tax paying
citizen of the Town of Leesburg and Loudoun County.
c. Pool Lighting. Lack of lighting in the swimming pool area presents a significant safety
hazard and the FHOA is disinclined to assume liability for accidents attributable to this situation. We
recommend that Pulte install proper lighting in.all areas prior to bond release.
4. Roadways
aOwnership. Communities concerned over the FHOA's ability to maintain and replace
roadways that are currently considered common property (Le., cul-de-sacs and some pipestem). The
question arises as to why the road system at Foxridge was originally deeded as private and what steps
can be taken to either deed the road system over to the Town of Leesburg or otherwise provide for
future maintenance.
b. Maintenance. The FHOA requires clarification as to what roadways will be maintained
by the Town of Leesburg (i.e., repair, replacement, snow removal) and under what conditions. The
FHOA feels that the city, county and state taxes should be support maintenance of these roadways.
These serious issues are an immediate concern to the community, particularly in the light of
•
the fact that Pulte has already requested final inspection of Phases 3 and 4 for performance bond
release. Consequently the FHOA respectfully requests prior notification of any action by the Town
Council that may lead to release of performance and/or maintenance bonds on Foxridge. The Board
of Directors also request a meeting with the Town Council and all appropriate town employees,
including the Town Manager, Manager of Technical Services and the Director of Engineering to discuss
these serious issues.
Please contact directly either Mr. George Greenfield President of FHOA or Mr. Mike Eveges
Vice President of FHOA to arrange a meeting prior to March 1, 1989.
Your kind attention to this matter is greatly appreciated.
Mr. Eveges stated that the FHOA has contacted Pulte in the past and have not received much
response. The FHOA is appealing to the Town Council for some assistance in resolving these issues
before the bonds are released in Foxridge.
Mr. Minor stated that as of today, a scheduled meeting has been set with the FHOA, himself,
Director of Utilities, and the Director of Engineering of Public Works. Staff has already acted to
address a couple of issues not listed in the letter.
Mr. Tolbert stated that on February 16, 1989, Officer Ron Speakman responded to 120
Washington Street, N.E., for an unknown medical emergency. Officer Speakman was on the scene
before the rescue squad arrived and gave CPR to the individual. This enabled the rescue squad to
resuscitate and save the woman's life. Due to Officer Speakman's quick action in starting CPR the
rescue squs.-1 was able to deliver the woman to the Loudoun Hospital Center as a live patient. Mr.
Tolbert, at this time, presented Officer Speakman with a Certificate of Appreciation.
Mr. Tolbert read the following Proclamation •
PROCLAMATION

• Commonwealth of Virginia have issued proclamations designating February 19 through 25, 1989, as

and general welfare of all citizens.
JOINT PUBLIC HEARING - EAST BATTLEFIELD PARKWAY ALIGNMENT
Peter Stephenson presented a brief staff report. He explained that the Town Council, on May
11, 1988 awarded a contract to Kamber Engineering in association with Bellomo-McGee to perform an
alignment study for the parkway. The consultants were directed to evaluate up to three roadway
alignments for the East Battlefield Parkway and determine the impact of each alignment at five key
intersections. For the purposes of the study, the north and south termini for the parkway were fixed,
the southern terminus located at the intersection of Sycolin Road and the northern terminus located
at the intersection of the Route 15 north bypass. The study.is complete and is now at the Planning
Commission and Town Council review level. Following tonight's public hearing, the study will go back
to both the Planning Commission and Council committee for discussion and consideration. Staff
suggests the Planning Commission resume their consideration of this matter at their March 9, 1989,
meeting and recommends that it be placed on the March 22, 1989 Planning'and Zoning Committee
agenda.
Larry Winchester representing Kamber Engineering, addressed the Council stating that this
study has given the Town of Leesburg a direction for working with the citizens in the town. He then
introduced Mark Lauriello project manager for the study. I
if: Mr. Lauriello addressed the Council explaining the analysis 'and methodologies that Kamber
eEngineering used in performing this study. To begin with, all that Kamber Engineering had to work
ii-
:\I with was the 1986 Town Plan. Kamber decided, through basic engineering 'principles, what areas of
Leesburg would have an impact on a roadway that was in the general alignment shown in the Town
li- Plan. He explained the major parcels within the study corridor and stated that staff provided Kamber
with the densities of each of these parcels. Bellomo-McGee then arrived ata network showing traffic
that would be generated by these densities.
Major consideration was given to Rehau. It was realized early that Rehau would be impacted
in some way. Kamber's objective was to minimize the adverse impact to Rehau. In doing this, Kamber
felt that the alignment further east would least impact Rehau in an adverse way. Further south,
beyond Rehau, the major consideration was keeping the alignment within the town's corporate limits,
' which was one of the criterias set by town staff. The alignment west of the Carr Tank was not selected
because of its severe 65 degree angular crossing with Fort Evans Road extended.
Bill Neville of PHR&A, addressed the Council representing the (downers of the Leegate
Properties. He briefly reviewed the importance of the location of Leegate along the study corridor. The
owner's primary concern is that the current alignment, which denies reasonable access to the northern
Leegate property, is unacceptable. PHR&A has identified an alternate alignment, which proposes the
following; It meets the same VDOT criteria as the proposed yellow alignment,lit reduces the floodplain
impact, it shortens and simplifies the bridge crossing, it provides direct access to the northern Leegate
parcel and Lawson Road properties, it eliminates the need for an additional trail crossing at Cardinal
Park and it potentially reduces the construction cost estimate, identified in the study, by up to $4 to
$8 million. If the adoption of the Battlefield Parkway Alignment Study isl to relate to the overall
comprehensive land use plan for the town, PHR&A further suggests that the study area of the
transportation analysis be extended to include the Route 15 and nece
road, and that townplanbypass Y improvements to g
language be adopted with the corridor study, which includes a policy regarding
right-of-way dedication for regional improvements and the retention of density credit. A specific
reference to providing access to both Leegate properties and thelextent to which the town should take
a participatory role toward the implementation of the plan, both financially and with required design
approvals. PHR&A requests that this study be reviewed and revised to reflect valuable site specific
information. '
i
Douglas Kennedy, of PHR&A, addressed the Council' representing the Leesburg East U
Associates Limited Partnership and Walnut Partnership, who own approximately 300 acres north. of
Route 7. He addressed concerns with the East Battlefield Parkway Study. I Hi;: clie,t:s concur e.71

confi¢uratiors at the Route.7 Fast Battlefield Partr...ev intn...l.a..i... t!±t 7-:'_ :.::::::*t: n_-. non
within reasonable VDOT standards. '
•
Hubbard Turner a resident of 1107 Bradfield Drive, S.w., addressed the Council stating that
he has an indirect interest in Rehau. He has followed Battlefield Parkway since its inception and
believes that the Council, Planning Commission and staff has 'given this project a lot of thought. He
is concerned with the area near Rehau, the existing Potomac Crossing South and the fact that the
parkway will split the Rehau property. He would like to see jtl ealignment moved more';toward the
east. He asks that a lot of consideration be given to not dividing the!Rehaii property.
Leland Mahan, speaking on behalf of Rehau Incorporated, concurs ith Hubbard Turner's
comments. Rehau is particularly concerned with their 25 acres. -When Rehau sought this site they
l'--zzg ;
1
Minutes of February 28, 1989
considered the present facilities, and the potential for expansion. The 25 acres seemed to be well
located, very private and met their present and future needs. To Rehau, this alignment is potentially
a nightmare. The three proposed alignments cross through the middle of Rehau, creating irregular
shaped parcels. If any of the three alignments, proposed by Kamber Engineering, are approved by
Connell Mr. Mahan is sure that the town will have a long day in court and will pay dearly for this
property. We are not only talking about the right-of-way that is being acquired within the 120 feet,
we are talking about eminent domain practice. A second issue is that if the remaining property is made
less valuable as a result of this take, then the town will have to pay for the depredated valuation of
the property. This is crucial from the Council's standpoint. There are other alternatives, in addition
to the cost that is involved. There is the question of who is going to pay it. Rehau is presently zoned
PDIP, all they need to do is obtain a building permit for expansion purposes. The town cannot put the
burden of Rehau dedicating the roadway or building it for the town. Rehau engaged Callow Associates,
a traffic engineering firm and Huntley, Nyce & Associates, a local engineering firm, to take a look at
this property and comment as to what impact the alignment would have oil the development potential
of this property. The Huntley, Nyce & Associates' results are that there would be a major impact on
the development potential of the Rehau property. Mr. Mahan risks that Council take another look and
be sensitive to the concerns of a good citizen and one of Leesburg's largest employers.
David Gripp, Vice President of Legal Affairs for Rehau Incorporated, stated that Rehau does
have a 25 acre tract off of Edwards Ferry Road, it is the North American headquarters for Rehaus'
seven plants and eight sales offices in the United States and Canada Rehau is a diversified
manufacturer of plastic products and presently has 97 employees. He believes that there is an issue
of fundamental fairness. Rehau would like for the town's consulting firm to take a look at an
alignment further to the east. 1
Louis Slade Vice President of Gorove, Slade Associates, representing'309 Associates and Alan '
I. Kay Companies stated that three comments. The owners of the properties wish to support Kamber's
study, the recommendation regarding the interchange with Route 7 and the general recommendations
regarding the road network south of Route 7 and east of Battlefield Parkway. 'The owners are strongly
in support of Kamber's recommendation for another interchange along Route 7 east of Battlefield
Parkway and west of Goose Creek. I
Marc Montgomery, stated that there needs to be some mere back-up studies done to Kamber's
study. Some of the density calculations seem to be incorrect He then briefly explained a couple of t
graphics that he had prepared.
Roland Carlson, a resident of 1105 Nickels Place, S.W.; stated that he reviewed, in detail,
Kamber's traffic study, looked at their mathematical models, and their computer programs that analyze
the different intersections, and he believes there are errors. As he understands correctly, there is no
intersection between Edwards Ferry Road and Fort Evans Road. He noted that in the evening there
are 14,013 cars traveling north from Fort Evans but only 307 get there. In the morning there are 869
cars heading south from Edwards Ferry Road and all of a sudden there are 11,073 entering the next
intersection. Where have the 304 cars come from? This concerns:Mr. Carlson and he wonders if there
are other inaccuracies in the study. •
•
Mary Harris a resident of Cattail Run Farm addressed the Council, stating that her property
has a common boundary with the Town of Leesburg. She discovered that one of the proposed
alignments for the parkway would endanger an ecologically sensitive site,on her property. She
requests that the Council consider the western most alignment far the parkway.
Alfred Dennis, a resident of Leesburg addressed the Council stating that his family owns
property east of Edwards Ferry Road. Kamber's proposed alignment to the north of Edwards Ferry
Road is more acceptable to him because it would provide proper drainage and access to the nearby
residents. He noted that his nephew was offering to the town, a 150 foot strip of land along the east
edge of the town. This offer would be conditioned upon a matching strip of land,'just inside of the
Town of Leesburg. This offer would be impossible if the alignment comes right up to the strip of land.
Mr. Dennis asks Council for their consideration. ' 1 .

!?T,PR T. d...-g T...,♦ V....�,� Ierrspc. - -
addressed the Council. They are in full support of Kamber's proposed alignments. The '
recommendation of Kamber's study was that additional studies be made with'respect to the Route 7
interchange, as well as the interchange in the southern terminus area If the Council is inclined to
proceed with these additional studies, then CLPS requests that these additional studies do not impact
upon the recommended alignment of the East Battlefield Parkway as it proceeds through the Potomac
Crossing property. The recommended East Battlefield Parkway alignment, is the alignment which was
the subject of the proffer, between the CLPS Joint Venture and the Town of Leesburg and was
subsequently approved in the rezoning development plan. It was also the basis for the subsequent
submissions by CLPS to the Town, which are presently going through the approval process.

necessary. I1(
Mr. Kimball expressed his previous concerns with the bike race and the impact to merchants
and residents. He has since resolved these concerns and can now support the dosing of the streets,
but continues to have reservations regarding the use of public funds in support of the race. The use
of the police for safety purposes, is appropriate. Because there is not a full Council, tonight, he moved
that this legislation be referred back to the Administration and Public Works Committee for further
consideration. Mrs. Forester seconded this motion, stating that if a member of Council is undecided
then the item should be referred back for further discussion. 1
Mr. Mulokev stated that the organizers of the bicycle classic have made it clear that time is
important to them, in order to obtain sanction from the National Bicycle Association. He does not have
a problem with appropriating funds for this event. It has been done in the past and historically the
town has supported this event. This event supports Leesburg, it advertises the town, it brings people
into the historic district and it supports Leesburg as an independent and unique town. In this respect,
the town's funds are well spent.
Mr. Tolbert stated that he has not heard any tax payers complain regarding the appropriation
of funds for this event. He supports the legislation.
Mr. Whitescarver, President of the Leesburg Bicycle Classic,' addressed the Council thanking
1St them for their consideration in this matter. He understands the concerns that Counril has to deal with
'Cr asks ks Council to consider the funding separate, if Council could not adopt the legislation tonight.
It would be very difficult to have the race on the proposed dates, if the request for race permits and
advertisement was not made soon. He asked Council to allow him to proceed with the preparation
of the race
by giving him the authority to have the race.
Mr. Mulokey asked Mr. Kimball to withdraw his motion, adopt the resolution without the stated
appropriation and refer the appropriation back to the Administration and Pulilic Works-Committee for
further consideration. Mr. Kimball concurred and withdrew his motion. Mrs. Forester also withdrew
her second to the motion, further stating that she had no problems With the public appropriation of
funds nor the bicycle race. She feels that it was worth discussing if one member of the Council still
had concerns.
