Loudoun County

Board of Supervisors

Praise for Plan's Approval

Kudos to the Loudoun County Planning Commission for getting it right at its Aug. 28 meeting.

It was very apparent that the task of setting the stage for the future of the Dulles South area was not an easy one. Many hours of work by the commission and involved citizens came to fruition when the commission voted and approved the two Dulles South Comprehensive Plan amendments (CPAMs) that were under consideration.

Now it is time for the Board of Supervisors to continue in this endeavor. Residents in the Dulles South area have been left out of the county's mainstream for too long, and it is time for us to share the same quality of life that our fellow Loudoun County residents enjoy.

The development community is willing to assist with this vision. Developers are willing to build the modern roads, schools, libraries, public safety facilities and other much-needed amenities in the area, but Loudoun County has to work with them as well. The developers need the increased density that the Upper Broad Run, Upper Foley and Arcola CPAMs will bring to make this a viable option.

We ask the supervisors to please help make Dulles South a progressive and vibrant area by approving the Dulles South CPAMs.

Ron and JoAnne Brown
