AGENDA ITEMS
7:00 p.m. Briefing - Verizon Update - Doug Bremmer
Mr. Doug Bremmer introduced George Summers, President of Ivy H. Smith
and Walter Jones, Verizon's Director of the Fiber to the Premises (Fq-rP) program for
Northern Virginia. Mr. Bremmer apologized for the difficulties the residents have
been experiencing as a result of their FTTP program. Further, he stated they have
launched a number of new initiatives including sending letters to residents 10-30
days before construction, placing hangers on the doors when the work is completed
and various media releases.
Mr. Bremmer stated Verizon is in the process of creating a website with links
for questions and information on the construction process. He stated Verizon has
increased staff at all levels to monitor the construction in the field and have taken a
number steps to better serve their customers.
Mayor Umstattd outlined various complaints she has received. She stated
that when she met with staff, representatives from Verizon, and Ivy H. Smith that
promises to improve were being kept; however, after a few days of improvement
things went back to the way they were. Further, she stated this has been very
frustrating to homeowners.
Vice Mayor Martinez stated Mayor Umstattd summed up most of the
complaints. He stated working with sub-contractors is difficult; however, he would
have hoped that Verizon would have stayed in better control of the situation.
Councilmember Home stated she relayed a complaint to Mr. Bremmer
regarding a citizen who had food debris and crushed rock left on his yard and
landscaping. She stated the concern that the work is performed on Sundays with
Palm Sunday and Easter coming. Further, she commended Verizon for trying to take
proactive measures to address these issues.
Councilmember Hammler stated she is excited about the fiber program;
however, these concerns do need to be addressed. She stated her concern
regarding fiber under tree roots stating it might take up to three years to see the full
Town Council Work Session Minutes for March 21, 2005 Page 2
effect that will have on the trees. Further, she stated we need to be able to provide
clear answers to our residents who are concerned about their property.
Mr. Bremmer stated he would like Mr. Jones and Mr. Summers to address the
concerns specifically.
Mayor Umstattd stated she had forgotten to mention that she has received
many reports of lost missiles. Further, she stated there have been reports of these
missiles hitting gas lines.
Mr. Jones stated this is a very involved field process with 14,000 homes
involved. He stated they are looking to be finished around June and have been very
aggressive in trying to get this work completed. Further, he explained the missile
boring process stating this method minimizes damage to private property.
Mr. Jones stated Verizon and ivy H. Smith are committed to restoring
customer's property when the work is completed. He stated incidents of port-a-john
tipping, trash in yards, and rude behavior towards residents is not acceptable. He
stated Mr. Summers is working with his crew, and Verizon has hired a manager to
work directly with Mr. Summers and his team regarding these issues.
Hr. Summers stated his crew is two weeks from being done with their work in
Leesburg. He outlined several steps that his crews are taking to minimize the
complaints. Further, he stated they are keeping a log of yards to be re-sodded and
driveway restoration to ensure the customers are satisfied.
Vice Mayor Martinez stated his disappointment that improvements in service
are being made now that the work is almost done. He expressed his concern
regarding the impact to trees. Further, he stated his appreciation that Verizon and
[vy H. Smith are taking responsibility and trying to improve their service.
Councilmember Burk stated in her neighborhood the work was done in the
back yard and there were no complaints. She verified the door hangers are put up
before work starts and recently they have begun placing door hangers after the work
is completed. Further, she asked if the door hangers indicated that workers will
return in the spring to repair any damage?
IVlr. Jones stated on the first hanger they indicated they will repair any
damage. He stated the second hanger does indicate that repairs to driveways will be
made in the spring.
Councilmember Hammler suggested the possibility of special promotions for
the citizens of Leesburg given the difficulties we have encountered.
IVlayor Umstattd verified Verizon does not anticipate any major difficulties
when their crews install the cable.
Council thanked Mr. Bremmer, Mr. Jones and Mr. Summers for their report.
Council I~leeting of March 22, 2005
a. Approving TLSE 2004-27 Arby's at Potomac Station to permit a
fast food restaurant with drive-thru service
Town Council Work Session Minutes for March 21, 2005 Page 3
There was no Council discussion of this item.
b. TLSE-2004-O028 Loudoun National Bank to permit a ;L0,750
square foot banking facility with drive-thru service
Brian Boucher stated the applicant has made some changes to the
appearance of the drive-thru for the bank and has agreed to a courtesy
review by the Board of Architectural Review.
Mr. Bob Sevila, attorney for the applicant, stated in response to
comments made at the public hearing the applicant has agreed to change
the color of the green roof and make other minor adjustments. He
confirmed the applicant has agreed to a courtesy review by the Board of
Architectural review.
Councilmember Horne complimented the applicant on the design of the
building.
c. Approving amendments to the FY 2005 police budget and
making appropriations for $7:L,660 awarded through a Law
Enforcement Terrorism Prevention Grant.
~loe Price stated the department was awarded a grant as a result of
an audit conducted by our staff that identified various shortfalls in
equipment. Further, he stated the grant requires no matching funds.
Councilmember Hammler asked at what point Council can get a full
briefing on emergency procedures?
Mr. Price stated a briefing could be scheduled for a future Council
agenda.
d. Encouraging the Virginia Department of Transportation to
enhance clean-up efforts on Routes 7, 15, the Route 15 Bypass
and Fort Evans Road
Councilmember Hammler stated this resolution gives a glowing
statement; however, it does not pinpoint exactly what the town is trying
to accomplish. She asked if staff has called VDOT to get feedback in
advance of an official resolution.
Ms. Nicole Ard stated the town has a long history with VDOT and this
resolution is to enforce what we would like them to do. Further, at the
bottom of the resolution some specific areas are mentioned.
e. Supporting the efforts of Keep Loudoun Beautiful and
encouraging community participation in a tow-wide clean-up
day to Keep Leesburg Beautiful on April 2:3, 2005 and
throughout the year.
Councilmember Burk stated on April 23 the town will have an event to
get people excited about cleaning up the town. She stated the event is
supported by Keep Loudoun Beautiful, who has offered to provide training
for area leaders. Further, several groups have signed on to pick up the
trash which will then be picked up by the town and measured to see how
much is collected.
Town Council Work Session IVlinutes for March 21, 2005 Page 4
Councilmember Horne stated Marybeth Mohr and Nicole Ard have put
together a green binder containing the research that has gone into this.
She stated Keep America Beautiful has determined that people litter for
three reasons (1) they feel no sense of ownership; (2) they believe
someone else will pick up after them; (3) because litter has already
accumulated. Further, she stated it is her hope that people will feel a
sense of ownership through this effort and feel it is each of our
responsibilities to pick up trash when we see it.
Councilmember Hammler stated this is a great idea and she verified
the start time to the program will be 9:00 am on the 23rd. Further, she
stated as we are entering the budget discussions and should look at the
need for more trash cans, cigarette dispensers and or doggy bag
dispensers like those at :[da Lee Park.
For consideration and discussion:
Parking waiver request for residential use of the Tally Ho building
IVlayor Umstattd stated Lisa Speet is in the audience and asked if the Tally Ho
building could be converted to residential without a special exception or change of
zoning?
Brian Boucher stated if five or more units are put in a special exception would
be required.
Ms. Swift stated Board of Architectural Review approval would be needed for
changes to the exterior of the building. Ms. Swift stated the parking code is based
on the number of bedrooms and assuming there are 20 bedrooms the applicant
would be required to provide 35 parking spaces. Further, she stated the current
code requires that those parking spaces be provided on site and does not allow for
payment in lieu of parking.
Ms. Swift stated there will be an increase in residential demand in the
downtown and staff should continue to monitor usage in the garage and when
looking at other code amendments we should consider what our long term plan for
parking in the downtown will be.
Vice Mayor Martinez verified the payment in lieu of option is a one time fee.
Councilmember Burk complimented IVls. Swift on her report.
Councilmember Horne asked how long it would take to complete the estimate
of the future residential demand and establish a plan of action?
Ms. Swift stated that could be completed with in a few months after the
Comprehensive Plan is completed. She stated staff would have to look at parcels in
the downtown where a residential use might be appropriate. Further, staff would
have to determine how many parking spaces would be needed based on a projection
of the number of units the parcels could accommodate.
Councilmember Horne stated it is clear as the downtown historic district
transitions into strategic areas that this is going to become more of an issue and
Town Council Work Session Minutes for March 21, 2005 Page 5
Council will need to respond accordingly with our ordinances and anticipate some of
these issues.
Councilmember Hammler stated this issue was discussed when she attended
the Crescent District meeting with the Planning Commission. She stated the Crescent
District Master Plan should start delving into the issue of parking as we are
expanding the downtown. Further, she commented on the need to start thinking
broadly outside the Crescent District as this is going be a top strategic issue.
rvlayor Umstattd stated given the number of complaints about the lack of
parking she is reluctant to waive the parking requirements for a residential use
downtown. She asked how the operators of the Tally Ho theatre feel about this?
Ms..ludy Wilson, Tally Ho Theatre, addressed Council. She stated that she is
three years into a ten year lease and is very concerned about the proposal for the
building. Further, she stated the community has been very supportive of her
business.
Ms. Lisa Speet, Loudoun County resident, addressed Council. Ms. Speet
stated she is very concerned about the future of the Tally Ho theatre if the building is
purchased and condos are construction on the upper floors. Further, Ms. Speet
noted that the Tally Ho brings life to the downtown.
Council thanked Ms. Wilson for attending the meeting. The stated they are
very happy that her business is doing well and that the Tally Ho will remain open.
Further, they commented on what a wonderful asset it is to the community.
2. Water and Sewer Capacity
Randy Shoemaker stated as a follow-up to the discussion at the March 7 work
session he prepared a revised flow projection report including the proposed
developments at Festival Lakes, Creekside, Bolen Park, Barber & Ross, the Peterson
Property and the Loudoun County jail addition. Mr. Shoemaker stated incorporation
of these flows into the model indicates the town will have sufficient water and sewer
capacity to accommodate these developments.
Vice Mayor Martinez stated Creekside and Bolen Park are both included in the
projections; however, only one or the other will be constructed.
Mr. Shoemaker stated he encountered some difficulties in calculating the flow
measurements for the Creekside development. He stated the most recent
information he found was a proposal for 1,400 homes and 1.5 million square feet of
office and employment and 500,000 square feet of commercial use.
Mayor Umstattd stated it is her understanding that the Creekside proposal is
for 5,000 homes in addition to the aforementioned commercial and office
development.
Councilmember Horne verified this report takes into account the maximum
demand.
Councilmember Hammler stated as we are looking at business retention and
attraction issues and the rewrite of the comprehensive plan it is important to know
Town Council Work Session Minutes for March 21, 2005 Page 6
what our capacity is. She asked if industry types were taken into consideration
regarding the estimation for commercial water usage?
Mr. Shoemaker stated industrial development demands are very difficult
unless you know what the usage will be. He stated this is a work in progress and is
continually changing based on the applications the Planning Department receives.
Councilmember Hammler stated it is her hope that the town will be proactive
in seeking the applications we want rather than just waiting to see what comes in.
Mayor Umstattd stated the potential residential usage for the Peterson
property and the proposed Meadowbrook community is seriously underestimated.
She stated staff should take another look at the figures.
Mayor Umstattd asked Mr. Donnelly for the status of Loudoun County
Supervisor Jim Button's request to have Council look into the possibility of amending
the Annexation Area Development Policies to allow the town to send water to a
public park outside the town limits?
Mr. Donnelly stated he has not had the opportunity to contact the Loudoun
County Attorney's office yet; however, he has done some investigation on his own
and plans to contact them this week.
Councilmember Hammler commented on the importance of this issue.
Mayor Umstattd asked that Mr. Donnelly report back to Council later this
week.
3. Leesburg Executive Airport/Oaklawn at Stratford: Airport Proffers
Cindi Martin outlined the proffers associated with the Oaklawn at Stratford
property and stated not action is needed at this time.
Councilmember Hammler asked if it would be possible to go one step further
to making sure the residents understand how close they are to the airport to possibly
ward off some of the legal ramifications and noise complaints?
Mr. Donnelly stated these proffers were determined at the time of the
rezoning of the property and can not be changed at this point.
4. Status of parking service/proposed changes
Norm Butts stated staff has prepared an amendment to the Town Code for
Council's consideration to reduce the parking meter fine from $25 back to the
original fine of $10.
Vice Mayor Martinez asked how the increase to 50 cents per hour for parking
meters will be advertised?
Mr. Butts stated there is a planned public effort taking place and letters will
be sent to the downtown businesses and there will be notice of the price on the
meter heads. Further, decals will be placed on the post to indicate the time limit for
parking at the meter,
Councilmember Burk stated she brought this item forward for consideration
Town Council Work Session Minutes for March 21, 2005 Page
after she heard concern from the downtown businesses that a $25 fine for meter
violations would discourage patrons from coming downtown. Further, she stated we
need to communicate to the business owners that we understand their needs and are
willing to help them.
Councilmember Home stated she has also heard the concerns of the
downtown business owners and we need to look at increased enforcement of
the time limits at the meters to ensure turnover. Further, she stated she is
concerned by the perception that there is no parking in the downtown and we need
to partner with the media to assure people that there is plenty of parking available.
Councilmember Hammler stated she will support this reduction as the
proposed $25 dollar fine was higher than what is charged in Georgetown. She stated
she has heard concerns from the downtown businesses that we may lose some of
them if we don't take proactive steps to combat some of these issues.
Mayor Umstattd stated Council endorsed the parking changes after being
assured that the Downtown Business Association had agreed to them. She stated
Linda Callagy was kind enough to canvas her members last week and Lisa Capraro
also touched base. Further, she stated Council wants to make sure that this change
will have the support of the Downtown Business Association.
Linda Callagy, Leesburg Downtown Business Association, addressed Council.
Ms. Callagy stated she spoke with several people and sent an email out to the
members; however, no one has provided comments so it seem there would be no
problem with enforcing the meter fine at $10. Further, she stated we really need
this issue to be settled as all of the press concerning lack of parking is already
hurting the businesses.
Mayor Umstattd verified the Economic Development Commission is in favor of
keeping the fine at $10.
Mr. Wells stated staff was asked by Councilmember Burk to do counts in the
parking garage. He stated staff has done the counts on all levels of the garage at
three times during the day and asked Mr. Butts to report the findings. Further, he
stated this will be an on going effort.
Mr. Butts stated the counts were done from March 10 to March :~8 at 10:00
am 1:00 pm and 4:00 pm. He outlined the average vacancy rate for each level of
the parking garage and stated the vacancy rate is lower on the street levels than the
upper levels. Further, he stated once the parking services staff are on board staff
hopes to do these counts at the metered spaces as well.
Mayor Umstattd stated during the study it seems the fewest number of
available spaces was 40 and that was a 1:00 pm on March :~1. She stated he high
end of the range was :[19 spaces vacant at on March 14.
Vice Mayor Martinez thanked staff for their report.
Councilmember Burk verified all the spaces in the basement are reserved
however, there is almost a 50 percent vacancy rate there. She asked if downtown
residents could rent one of those spaces?
Town Council Work Session Hinutes for March 21, 2005 Page
Mr. Butts stated there is currently a waiting list for spaces in the basement.
Councilmember Horne stated on March 11 at l:O0 pm there were 40 vacant
public parking spaces in the garage, which is the lowest at any time during the
study. She thanked Mr. Butts for his report.
Councilmember Hammler stated the reason we have seen so much dialog in
the community regarding this is that we have spent so much time on the analysis of
it. She commented on the previous unnecessary expenditure of $50,000 for a
parking consultant and thanked Mr. Wells for his logical approach to this issue.
Further, she asked that Mr. Butts look at the parking study and make sure that we
are on the right track.
Mayor Umstattd stated Ms. Callagy has made a good point that the coverage
of this issue has not necessarily reflected the reality of the issue and that has hurt
the businesses.
Vice Mayor Martinez verified the reserved parking in the basement is available
as public parking on the weekends.
There was further Council discussion regarding the benefits that the town
received from conducting the parking analysis.
Councilmember Horne stated Councilmember Kramer had discussed the
idea of putting a box in the garage for people to pay their parking tickets on
the spot. She asked that staff investigate this possibility.
5. Police Strategic Plan briefing & red light running
Chief Price outlined the Leesburg Police Department strategic plan for 2005
through 2008. He stated the focus of the plan is to ensure the public safety and
reengineer the department for improved efficiency. He outlined the goals associated
with the focus of the plan and stated the strategic plan will serve as a road map with
funding requested for specific strategies during each budget process.
Vice Mayor Martinez stated the Leesburg Police Department is about keeping
the community safe and the youth initiatives are a good example of that. Further,
he commented on the success of the teen center in the Town of Purcellville and
stated something like that would be good for Leesburg.
Chief Price stated working with the youth is an underlying goal not only for
the police department, but also for the parks and recreation department.
Vice Mayor Martinez expressed concern with retention in the police
department stating officers can't afford to live in Leesburg.
Chief Price stated retention is a problem with many localities.
Councilmember Burk stated she did a ride-a-long and commented on the
respect and professionalism of the officers. Further, she suggested the possibility of
establishing a Youth Council.
Chief Price stated that is one of the year one objectives and staff has had
some preliminary discussions with the school system.
Town Council Work Session Minutes for March 21, 2005 Page 9
Councilmember Horne asked where the officers go when they leave our police
department?
Mr. Price stated our attrition is four officers a year which is well below
average for jurisdictions of our size. He stated most of our officers leave the
profession or go on to federal positions or larger agencies.
Councilmember Hammler stated during the recent joint meeting between the
town and county Parks and Recreation Commissions she was informed of a program
the county is working on where they are converting a homeowners association
clubhouse in Countryside to a teen center. Further, commented on the Youth Music
Preservation Promotion Association's idea to use music as a community policing tool
stating she would like to follow up with Chief Price on that.
Mayor Umstattd stated her interest in the police department initiative to bring
in citizens from the northeast quadrant of town to talk to our officers. She asked
what came out of that meeting?
Chief Price stated our department provides community policing training to the
Northern Virginia Training Academy so all police candidates, with the exception of
Fairfax and Prince William Counties, received this training. He stated this year he
had representatives from the Heritage Square Homeowners Association attend the
training so the candidates heard about community policing from the residents side as
well as the police side.
Mayor Umstattd asked if this program was available in Leesburg prior to Chief
Price's arrival? She stated it seems to be a very valuable plan that should be
disseminated to other jurisdictions.
Chief Price stated he is just the head of the department; however, this plan
was developed by many officers with in the department and really belongs to them,
Chief Price outlined his report on red light running in the town. He stated the
top red light accident locations is the town are, (1) Edwards Ferry Road and Heritage
Way, (2) the Bypass and Edwards Ferry Road, (3) the Bypass and Sycolin Road, and
(4) Route 7 at River Creek Parkway. Further, the top red light violation locations
from 2000 to 2004 have been, (1) 115 at East Market Street at Plaza Street, (2) 59
at the Bypass and Edwards Ferry Road, (3) 46 at the Bypass and Battlefield Parkway,
(4) 43 at South King Street and Governors Drive, (5) 43 at Route 7 and Cardinal
Park Drive, (6) 39 at East Market Street at Fort Evans Road, (7) 38 at the Bypass
and Sycolin Road, (8) 37 at Plaza Street and East Market Street, (9) 33 at East
IVlarket Street and Catoctin Circle, and (10) 27 at South King Street and Country
Club Drive.
Councilmember Hammler asked if based on the numbers is the police
department's feeling that we have a problem and should perhaps step up
enforcement?
Chief Price stated we have made attempts to get photo red light for our
community. He stated when you look at the numbers you will find that we probably
have a more significant red light violation problem than we are aware of. Further, he
stated there have been questions regarding the effectiveness of the photo red light
technology; however, he feels it would save money in the long run.
Town Council Work Session Minutes for March 21, 2005 Page ]0
There was further discussion regarding other alternatives to traffic lights
including various traffic calming devices.
6. Establishing a Loudoun Street Task Force
Mayor Umstattd asked if membership to the task force would be open for
other Council recommendations?
Councilmember Horne stated this is an effort to bring together a group of
business people, downtown business owners, local real estate people, a
representative from the banking community as well as from the Economic
Development Commission to get citizens involved in developing a viable economic
model for a public/private partnership on the Loudoun Street property. She stated
they are looking at a two phase approach, the first phase to look at the economic
viability and reporting back to the Council by ~luly 1:~. Further, the second would be
to construct a framework to recommend to the Council for doing a request for
proposal or competitive selection process for private sector interest in that property.
Councilmember Home stated there was a lot of thought put into the people
listed.
Councilmember Burk stated this is a great idea; however, she would like to
speak with Councilmember Horne regarding a suggestion for a potential member.
Councilmember Hammler suggested including a business owner from the Wirt
Street side of Loudoun Street as they are currently removed from the foot traffic.
Mayor Umstattd stated one of the individuals on this list is personally
interested in constructing the building, but not interested in leasing the property
from the town. She stated anything crafted by this group would need to go before
the Town Attorney to make sure that it isn't crafted to benefit one individual over
another. Further, she stated we might want to have more than one potential builder
on the committee.
Mayor Umstattd verified there is a representative from the Leesburg
Downtown Business Association on the committee.
Councilmember Horne stated the task force's meetings will be open to the
public and will provide for public comment. She stated the importance of keeping
the size of the task force manageable stating it does not need to grow into
something bigger than we need it to be.
Karen Jones, Economic Development Commission, stated every member of
the task force has a vested interest in the outcome of this project so one of the first
things they will need to do is establish rules so that everyone is on an equal playing
field.
Councilmember Burk verified it is not necessary to add more members to the
task force, but to let interested parties know that they can attend the meetings.
Mayor Umstattd stated she would support adding members to the task force if
any Councilmember desired to do so.

analysis of the impact of this request. She stated philosophically no one has
a problem honoring the service of the active members of our armed forces
with an admission discount or complimentary admission to Ida Lee Recreation
Center; however, we need to see the fiscal impact analysis which would
include the use by the fire and rescue personnel too.
Councilmember Hammler stated the commission felt they had been
given the resolution from Congressman Wolf through Council. Further, she

Councilmember Burk stated the Purcellville Town Council and a
number of the other Town Council's have passed a resolution regarding the
State Supreme Court's recent decision regarding the AR-! and AR-2 zoning
districts in western Loudoun. She stated the Town of Purcellville has asked
that we support them by passing a similar resolution.
Vice Mayor Martinez stated he would support a resolution.
Councilmember Hammler stated it is her understanding that the
county staff is currently working just to begin to understand all of the
implications associated with this ruling. She stated we need to be supportive
of that process and have the right information, not jumping on a reactionary
bandwagon. Further, she stated the importance of including issues pertaining
to Leesburg like the implications to the ~ILMA-20.
Mayor Umstattd stated we need to do a better job at defining the term
western Loudoun because it was that vagueness that got the county into
trouble in the first place. She stated she would support this in theory, but
would want to be careful as to the wording.
Councilmember Burk stated she would be happy to work on it.
Mr. Donnelly stated he would like to take a look at the resolution.
Town Council Work Session Minutes for March 21, 2005 Page 12
Councilmember Horne suggested that we incorporate language
regarding how the communities are interconnected and the regional impacts

stating we understand that county staff is dealing with trying to understand
the implications and that any cooperation might be required so that we could
share interpretations of that which impacts Leesburg.
