Action text

Attachment 1 provides a series of options for the Town Council to consider. Depending on the desired direction of the Town Council, the following are potential motions that could be made:



Option 1: "I move those standard public improvements as applied town wide are needed at 288 Windover Ave., NW, as part of redevelopment"



Or



Option 2: "I move those public improvements are needed at 288 Windover Ave., NW, as part of redevelopment but are not able to be implemented until a holistic infrastructure plan for Windover Heights is developed. Therefore, the Town requires dedication of right-of-way for future implementation."



Or



Option 3: "I move that public Improvements are not needed at 288 Windover Ave., NW, as part of redevelopment, as long as the applicant meets the following conditions as part of the redevelopment project:

a. The applicant will dedicate six feet [or other width of Town Council's choice] on Windover Avenue, NW. 

b. The applicant must provide and plant, in consultation with the Town's arborist, a species of cedar tree along Windover Avenue, NW, and additional street frontages where appropriate, to provide infill plantings of the historic cedar trees lining the corridors.

c. The applicant will, in collaboration with Department of Public Works, construct a swale/ditch along Lovers Lane, NW, and Pleasant, NW, to ensure site water along the south of the property does not cross Lovers Lane, NW, toward other private properties.

d. The applicant will reduce stormwater runoff quantity and improve water quality by 20% onsite, which is twice the reduction required by the Town of Vienna for single-lot development and Virginia Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) standards, with a design approved by the Department of Public Works. 

e. {Any other condition(s) as determined by Town Council.}



Or



Option 4: "I move those public improvements are not needed at 288 Windover Ave., NW, as part of redevelopment."
