Local Planning Committee To Review Proposals


The Reston Planning and Zoning Committee will meet Monday, Sept. 10, at 7:30 p.m. in the Main Conference Room of Reston Association Building, 1930 Isaac Newton Square.

Its agenda includes:

• Introduction of prospective associate members to the Reston Planning and Zoning Committee.

• Exxon Mobil gas station at the corner of Wiehle Avenue and Isaac Newton Square: The structures on this property are to be reconfigured; the committee will review these plans. There are to be no changes in the location of the fuel pumps or the canopy over them.

• JBG proposed development on Sunrise Valley Drive. Fairfax County plan PRCB–846. Total acreage: 9.9633. Total residential units, all buildings: 498. Total office retail and commercial FAR: 2.89. All current one-story buildings to be demolished. Five new buildings are proposed as follows: two residential buildings of 18 stories each with gross square footage of 217,500 square feet each over a first floor retail component of 15,000 – 16,000 square feet each. These two buildings will be located near the Reston Parkway end of the land area. Two residential buildings of 10 stories each near Sunrise Valley Drive, each 120 feet high, over a retail component of 12,500 – 13,000 square feet. Retail components for these four buildings are not included in the height calculation of these buildings. A fifth building is planned near the existing International Center Office building. It will consist of the first floor retail component, four stories of garage, and nine stories of office space for a total height of 256 feet. The plans for this building may be resubmitted by the developer, which will alter this configuration somewhat.
