Concerns about a nearby development proposal

On March 9, 2023 the Fairfax County Planning Commission voted on the Madison Acquisitions Gallows Road, CPN22-MA-006, and approved a concurrent process to deal with the Comprehensive Plan amendment from R-2 to PDH-4 and the rezoning for the development. Below is the Raintree HOA President’s statement to the Planning Commission and the Fairfax county planning staff, and his 3 minute PowerPoint presentation in the Planning Commission meeting on March 9 representing the concerns of the Raintree residents regarding this proposal.

You can still write to the Board of Supervisors (BOS) before the final vote to make sure that the developer deals with the issues of concern to us such. as flooding, traffic, large retaining wall to our property lines, light and noise pollution, etc. If you have young children, you can also point out that, and that you are concerned with access to the Woodburn School given the heavy traffic on Gallows Rd.

We need to think about how we can protect our property values—townhouses and cars—and our quality of life, and to express those ideas in a statement to the Board of Supervisors.  The time to do it is very short. Write your statement by March 23, 2023.

You can write your own statements or write comments in your email and attach the Raintree PDF statement. Put your name and address at the top. At the end say, “Attached bellow is the statement of the Raintree President, Gerry Andrianopoulos which I/we support”.

Send it to BOTH: The Fairfax county Planning staff DPDSSPA@FairfaxCounty.gov  and to the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors, ClerktotheBOS@FairfaxCounty.gov

In both cases, in your email, ASK THE CLERK THAT YOUR EMAIL AND STATEMENT BE DISTRIBUTED TO ALL SUPERVISORS.
