Supervisor Mendelsohn said that since a land donation of 18 acres in McLean from Ms. Adele Lebowitz in the spring of 2000, the Park Authority has been actively master-planning and designing the first phase of park facilities at Clemyjontri Park. The first phase includes site grading and infrastructure, and the development of a handicap accessible playground, a carousel, and a picnic shelter. He said that in light of the substantial land donation, a unique public benefit will be derived from this development which will include accessibility for a special population of County citizens.

Therefore, Supervisor Mendelsohn moved that the Board waive retroactively, if necessary, the application fees and any other fees associated with site plan submission, reviewing, and permitting. In response to his inquiry, the County Attorney opined that such a waiver by the Board on behalf of the Park Authority is allowable under provisions of the Code of Virginia. He said that this motion should not be construed as a favorable recommendation of this application by the Board and does not relieve the applicant of compliance with the provisions of any applicable ordinances, regulations, or adopted standards in any way.

To officially complete the sweep staff will be unable to schedule special collections until the sweep is completed. The schedule will be as follows:

Chairman Hanley said that if DSW finishes one area ahead of schedule it will begin the next area.

To help expedite the collection progress, DSW has requested County citizens to please refrain from adding new yard debris to their piles until the sweep is completed.

Following discussion, with input from Anthony H. Griffin, County Executive, Supervisor Frey clarified that the collection sweep is only for areas in the County that receive County collection.

These loans, one from the Small Business Administration and the other from a commercial bank, will increase homeowner fees an additional $26 to $83 per month according to the article.

29. PEDESTRIANS WANT TO WALK (ALL) OVER RICHMOND HIGHWAY (MOUNT VERNON DISTRICT) (Tape 3)

Supervisor Hyland said that he received an email inquiry from a constituent concerning pedestrian safety crossing Richmond Highway at Huntington Avenue. Richmond Highway is the major north-south roadway in the Mount Vernon District and is, therefore, an extremely busy highway. The intersection of Huntington Avenue at Richmond Highway is particularly dangerous due to its proximity to the Woodrow Wilson Bridge and the additional traffic and congestion this creates. The email suggested a pedestrian light signal and a sign to be placed at the intersection of Huntington Avenue and Richmond Highway, or possibly a pedestrian overpass.

Accordingly, Supervisor Hyland asked unanimous consent that the Board direct the Department of Transportation to review and make recommendations to the Board for further action regarding a pedestrian overpass at Huntington Avenue and Richmond Highway or the requested signalization.

The applicant does not propose to increase the number of students currently enrolled in the school or the number of employees.

Accordingly, Supervisor Hyland moved that the Board direct the Director of the Department of Public Works and Environmental Services to accept for concurrent and simultaneous processing any plans or drawings, including applications for demolition, to be processed concurrently with the Special Permit Amendment Application SPA 82-V-059-2. This motion should not be construed as a favorable recommendation of this application by the Board and does not relieve the applicant of compliance with the provisions of any applicable ordinances, regulations, or adopted standards. Supervisor McConnell seconded the motion and it carried by unanimous vote.

31. MOUNT VERNON ESTATE AND GARDENS REQUESTS MODIFIED PROCESSING (MOUNT VERNON DISTRICT) (Tape 3)

Supervisor Hyland referred to his written Board Matter regarding Mount Vernon Estate. The Mount Vernon Ladies Association of the Union, which owns and maintains the site, is proposing a major addition to the visitor's center portion of the site to better enable visitors to experience the value and cultural richness of this important landmark. The proposed addition does not involve the existing historic structures, but will enhance the more modern existing visitor's center with three new experiences: an orientation center, education center, and a museum. Timely completion of this reconstruction is critical to the project and dependent upon quick processing of the construction plans.

Accordingly, Supervisor Hyland moved that the Board approve modified processing of the necessary site and building plans for construction of a new orientation center and education center/museum at the Mount Vernon Estate. This motion should not be construed as a favorable recommendation of this application by the Board and does not relieve the applicant of compliance with the provisions of any applicable ordinances, regulations, or adopted standards. Supervisor Connolly seconded the motion and it carried by unanimous vote.

32. PETITION ADDRESSED TO THE BOARD REGARDING REAL ESTATE TAX CAP (Tape 3)

Supervisor Hyland stated that last week he received a letter from Mr. Lawrence McGuire which was accompanied by a petition containing more than 1,000 signatures requesting that a cap be placed on real estate taxes, especially for senior citizens over age 65 who struggle on fixed incomes.

The letter announced that Brant Baber, Citizen At-Large #2 Representative, to the Fairfax County Police Officers Retirement Board of Trustees, resigned his position after many years of loyal service, thus creating a vacancy on that Board. The coalition and three associations requested that the Board of Supervisors consider their recommendation that Mr. Rodney G. Leffler be appointed to fill this vacancy.

Accordingly, Supervisor Hyland asked unanimous consent that the Board consider this appointment next week. Without objection, it was so ordered.

Supervisor Hyland presented a videotape prepared by the Police Department during the days in the aftermath of Hurricane Isabel. The Police Department documented the results of the flooding which devastated the communities of New Alexandria, Belle View, and Riverview.

Supervisor Hyland noted that according to the FEMA maps, the shopping center that was flooded is not shown as being in a flood plain. He said that the videotape points out the real need for the County to provide adequate flood protection to the residents in the affected areas. Current controls can accommodate up to 7 ½ feet of water, but cannot handle this type of storm. He stated that he was looking forward to the After Incident Report and he asked unanimous consent that the Board direct the County Executive to determine what action can be taken to protect that community from future flooding. Without objection, it was so ordered.

Supervisor Hyland commended the County staff who responded to the needs of the affected community.

Supervisor Gross said that she had innumerable complaints concerning continued problems with trash pick up at bus stops. She convened several meetings concerning this matter with representatives from Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority (WMATA), Virginia Department of Transportation, Fairfax County Department of Transportation, Storm Water Maintenance, Health Department, and the Annandale Central Business District Planning Committee. A number of these bus stops are WMATA bus stops and it does not provide trash pick up at its bus stops outside of the District. Supervisor Gross, therefore, asked unanimous consent that the Board direct staff to begin a formal analysis of this issue to include what costs would be incurred to provide regular County trash pick up for bus stops in the Commercial Revitalization District. Without objection, it was so ordered.

Chairman Hanley relinquished the Chair to Vice-Chairman Hyland and asked unanimous consent that the Board direct staff to circulate the study that was previously conducted resulting in the "Adopt A Bus Stop" Program. Without objection, it was so ordered.

Vice-Chairman Hyland returned the gavel to Chairman Hanley.

38. RECOGNITION OF HISPANICS AGAINST CHILD ABUSE AND NEGLECT GROUP (MASON DISTRICT) (Tape 4)

Supervisor Gross stated that Hispanics Against Child Abuse and Neglect and its Morning Star Program have been working very effectively in the Baileys Crossroads area for several years. Supervisor Gross asked unanimous consent that the Board direct staff to invite this group and some of the young participants to appear before the Board to be recognized for their service to the community. Without objection, it was so ordered.

39. AMENDMENTS TO COMPREHENSIVE SIGN PLANS CSP 86-W-001 AND CSP 86-P-089 (SPRINGFIELD DISTRICT) (Tape 4)

Supervisor McConnell stated that on June 16, 2003, the Board took several actions regarding Land Bay A of the Government Center site, County Tax Map 55-((1))15, including authorizing the County Executive to execute a statement on behalf of the Board endorsing the filing of a series of zoning actions by the Peterson Companies, LC, and appointing the Peterson Companies, LC, as its agent for the zoning applications. Those applications have been filed and are now scheduled to come before the Board in January 2004. The Peterson Companies, LC, has indicated that it would like to file an amendment to the Comprehensive Sign Plan that governs the property.

Supervisor McConnell, therefore, moved that the Board:

· Appoint the Peterson Companies, LC, as its agent for an amendment to Comprehensive Sign Plans CSP 86-W-001 and CSP 86-P-089.

· Authorize the County Executive to execute a notarized statement on behalf of the Board indicating endorsement of the filing of an amendment to CSP 86-W-001 and CSP 86-P-086 by the Peterson Companies, LC.

Supervisor McConnell noted that this motion should not be construed to prejudge the outcome of these applications.

Chairman Hanley seconded the motion and it carried by unanimous vote.

40. DEDICATION AND OPEN HOUSE TO CELEBRATE NEWLY RENOVATED SPRINGFIELD DISTRICT GOVERNMENTAL CENTER (SPRINGFIELD DISTRICT) (Tape 4)

41. PROPOSED DOMINION COVE POINT EAST COMPRESSOR STATION (SULLY DISTRICT) (Tape 5)

Supervisor Frey said that he had faxed to Board Members a copy of a letter from the Department of Planning and Zoning to the Department of Environmental Quality regarding a proposal by Dominion Cove Point LNG to add a compressor station to property generally located between Bull Run Post Office Road and Pleasant Valley Road. In the letter, staff noted concerns that the environmental analysis does not provide adequate information regarding the nature of the proposed activity, the extent of use, the impact of the use on the adjacent Pleasant Valley Park, the environmental impact on the site, and the expected noise levels to be generated.

Therefore, Supervisor Frey moved that the Board direct staff to draft a letter for the Chairman's signature indicating the Board's endorsement of the comments submitted by staff. Supervisor Hudgins seconded the motion and it carried by unanimous vote.

42. EXXON MOBIL CORPORATION – FAIR RIDGE EXXON (SULLY DISTRICT) (Tape 5)

Supervisor Frey said that Exxon Mobil is processing Proffered Condition Amendment and Final Development Plan Amendment Applications PCA/FDPA 1998-SU-009 to make minor amendments to the approved final development plan for the service station located on Route 50 at Fair Ridge Drive. The revised applications now include a service bay building in conformance with the recommendation of the Comprehensive Plan.

To facilitate the renovation of this station, Supervisor Frey moved that the Board authorize concurrent processing of the zoning and site plans. The applicants understand that this motion does not relieve them of any obligation, ordinance or standards, and will not prejudice the consideration of the application in any way. Chairman Hanley seconded the motion and it carried by unanimous vote.

43. PROPOSED AMENDMENT TO THE CODE OF THE COUNTY OF FAIRFAX, CHAPTER 112 (ZONING ORDINANCE), REGARDING MASSAGE THERAPISTS (Tape 5)

Supervisor Frey stated that he had met with the Zoning Administration Division staff and a certified massage therapist who had concerns about the Code of the County of Fairfax, Chapter 112 (Zoning Ordinance), regarding restrictions on massage therapists. In particular, she proposed that the Code be modified to reflect the amendments to the State Code which now recognizes the certification process for massage therapists. Additionally, she requested that the Board consider amending the Code to include massage therapy as a permissible home occupation, and to explore the option of allowing home businesses to establish in townhomes.

Therefore, Supervisor Frey moved that the Board direct staff to review the:

· Proposal and consider it for addition to the Zoning Ordinance Amendment Work Order list.

· County Code provisions with the State Code to determine whether modifications are appropriate to ensure consistency.

Supervisor Kauffman seconded the motion.

Following discussion, the question was called on the motion and it carried by unanimous vote.

44. LANDSDOWNE SLIDE (Tape 5)

Supervisor Hyland said that several meetings were held regarding the Landsdowne landslide and that a report has been completed.

Therefore, Supervisor Hyland moved that the Board direct staff to schedule meetings with representatives of the Virginia Department of Transportation, Fairfax County's Department of Transportation, and a representative of the homeowners to determine the responsibility and liability and to help the homeowners with their financial obligation. Supervisor Kauffman seconded the motion.

Following discussion, the question was called on the motion and it carried by unanimous vote.

45. FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE REPORTS (Tape 5)

Supervisor Kauffman reminded the Board that it made Board Members' financial disclosure reports available on the County's web site. He added that financial reports from General Assembly candidates are also available.

Supervisor Kauffman said that the information is not complete. Given that district lines for the General Assembly spread across jurisdictional boundaries, the site does not capture reports for officials who represent the County in Richmond but happen to reside outside the County. For example, Delegate Van Landingham and Senator Ticer represent a number of precincts in Lee District, but their reports are not currently available on the County web site.

Accordingly, Supervisor Kauffman moved that the Board direct the County Electoral Board to work with the State Electoral Board so that reports for General Assembly members who represent, but do not reside in, Fairfax County are made available on the County web site. Chairman Hanley seconded the motion and it carried by unanimous vote.

46. SPECIAL EXCEPTION APPLICATION SE 2002-DR-026 - WEST FALLS CHURCH PARKING GARAGE (LEE DISTRICT) (Tape 5)

Supervisor Kauffman said that when the Board approved Special Exception Application SE 2002-DR-026 for the West Falls Church Parking Garage, one of the conditions (number nine) stated:

· "Unless administratively approved by the Board of Supervisors, clearing and grading of the subject site shall not begin until temporary parking facilities which provide a minimum of 225 spaces are available for use. The applicant shall provide documentation to the satisfaction of the Department of Public Works and Environmental Services demonstrating the availability of parking."

Supervisor Kauffman noted that the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority (WMATA) has been working to provide a temporary lot in the City of Falls Church and another one in Fairfax County. It now appears, based on site layouts and conditions associated with the construction of these lots, the actual number of parking spaces will be between 200 and 225.

To keep this project on schedule and considering that WMATA's inability to provide 225 spaces is beyond WMATA's control, Supervisor Kauffman moved that the Board approve WMATA's clearing and grading of the site with the availability of fewer than 225 temporary spaces. WMATA will not reduce the existing surface parking lot until the temporary spaces are available. The second to the motion was inaudible.

Following discussion, the question was called on the motion and it carried by unanimous vote.

Following further discussion, with input from staff, Supervisor Kauffman moved that the Board direct staff to review the plan for the County lot and ensure that the shuttle is as frequent or more frequent as the plan that was used for the Vienna Metro Station. Chairman Hanley seconded the motion and it carried by unanimous vote.

47. OPENING OF THE EXPANDED FRANCONIA-SPRINGFIELD GARAGE (Tape 5)

Supervisor Kauffman announced the success of the opening of the expanded Franconia-Springfield garage.

48. INTENT TO DEFER PUBLIC HEARINGS (LEE DISTRICT) (Tape 5)

Supervisor Kauffmann announced his intent, later in the meeting at the appropriate time, to defer the public hearing on Rezoning Application RZ 2003-LE-001 and Special Exception Amendment Application SEA 85-LE-001-2 until October 27, 2003.

(NOTE: Later in the meeting, the public hearing was formally deferred. See Clerk's Summary Item CL#94.)

49. ANNUAL VOLUNTEER RECOGNITION AWARD (Tape 5)

(NOTE: Earlier in the meeting, during the Moment of Silence, the Board recognized the death of Ms. Barbara Varon. See Clerk's Summary Item CL#1.)

Supervisor Hudgins said that on October 12, 2003, not only Fairfax County but all of Virginia lost a strong advocate for the democratic process, Ms. Barbara Varon. Articulate and gracious, Ms. Varon was a spirited volunteer for various and numerous social and civic causes for more than 40 years.

In particular, since the early 1980s, Ms. Varon was actively involved in expanding the voting franchise to all Virginia residents, young and old, native and foreign born. Born in Germany, Ms. Varon highly valued the rights and responsibilities of citizenship. Her more than 25 years of election related service ranged from high school field registrar to Chairman of the Fairfax County Board of Elections.

As the former Secretary of the Fairfax County Board of Elections, Supervisor Hudgins moved that the Board request that the Fairfax County Board of Elections, in conjunction with the Office of the General Registrar, and Fairfax County Office of Equity Programs, establish an annual volunteer recognition award to honor Ms. Varon in memories and to celebrate the spirit of her commitment. Supervisor Connolly seconded the motion.

Supervisor Connolly announced that a memorial service will be held at his home on Sunday, October 26, 2003. For more information, call 703-560-6946.

Following discussion, the question was called on the motion and it carried by eight, Supervisor Bulova and Supervisor Frey being out of the room.

50. PLAZA AMERICA PROFFERS PEDESTRIAN AND PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION PROJECTS (HUNTER MILL DISTRICT) (Tape 5)

Supervisor Hudgins said that on December 13, 2002, the developers of Plaza America contributed a $1.8 million proffer for pedestrian and public transportation enhancements along Sunset Hills Road. She said that as a result of the proffer dedication, her office and the Department of Transportation reviewed recommendations from citizens and from the County to improve pedestrian safety and access and to improve transit ridership. In the past ten months the following projects have been undertaken by utilizing the proffer funding:

· A continuous pedestrian walkway from the Town of Herndon (at the Fairfax County Parkway) to Wiehle Avenue on the south side of Sunset Hills Road.

· A continuous pedestrian walkway from the Town of Herndon (at the Fairfax County Parkway) to Reston Parkway on the north side of Sunset Hills Road.

· Crosswalk and pedestrian signals at priority transit/pedestrian locations as identified on the "Reston on Foot" plan.

· Pedestrian signals at signalized intersections without existing pedestrian signals.

· A continuous pedestrian walkway from Reston Parkway west of the Reston substation to provide a link to the W&OD trail on the north side of Sunset Hills Road.

· Bus shelters or pads at existing bus stops that do not have shelters or pads and provide system maps and timetables at all bus shelters on Sunset Hills Road.

The remaining funds have been allocated to improve access for the transit ridership by improving the Fairfax Connector Route 505 to 15 minute headway timing during the midday hours. The proffer dollars were targeted to improve the public transportation network in the area surrounding Plaza America and along Sunset Hills Road. The success of this effort marks not only the improvement of transportation in this specific area of Reston, but is indicative of efforts that need to be made around Reston and throughout the County. By creating a comprehensive public transportation network that includes bus shelters, crosswalks, and frequent and dependable bus service, citizens can be prepared for the advent of rail in the Dulles Corridor.

Therefore, Supervisor Hudgins moved that the Board direct staff to commence the additional service for the Fairfax Connector 505 expeditiously. Supervisor Hyland seconded the motion.

Following discussion, the question was called on the motion and it carried by a vote of eight, Supervisor Bulova and Supervisor Frey being out of the room.

51. CONCURRENT PROCESSING REGARDING KSI (HUNTER MILL DISTRICT) (Tape 5)

Supervisor Hudgins said that KSI executed a contract to purchase two of the remaining undeveloped blocks within the Urban Core of the Reston Town Center. KSI proposes to develop Blocks 16 and 18 by right with a mix of residential units and ground-floor retail continuing the tradition in Reston of having a strong retail component to the mixed use environment. Importantly, parking will be provided in below-grade parking structures below or behind the residential units. This proposed development is in conformance with the development plan amendment the Board approved in May 2002.

Supervisor Hudgins said that a series of PRC plans and site plan amendments are required for the project to proceed. KSI is anxious to begin its work in the Town Center and, therefore, is seeking concurrent processing of the PRC plans and site plans associated with this project.

Accordingly, Supervisor Hudgins moved that the Board direct the Director of the Department of Public Works and Environmental Services to concurrently process the PRC plan, site plan revisions, site plan, and other associated documents associated with Tax Map 17-1 ((16)) 18 and 17-3 ((10)) 16. Approval of this motion does not relieve the applicant of the requirement to comply with all applicable ordinances and standards affecting development of the project, nor does it prejudice the staff's review of the plans. Supervisor Connolly seconded the motion and it carried by a vote of seven, Supervisor Bulova, Supervisor Frey, and Supervisor Gross being out of the room.

52. SHELTER FOR HOMELESS PERSONS (Tape 5)

(BACs) Supervisor Hudgins said that Board Members may recall that the Homeless Oversight Committee asked the Board to review the issue of providing shelter for homeless persons who have medical needs that cannot be adequately addressed in the current shelter system. These situations range from a homeless person who needs assistance in administering and managing medications, to a person's being discharged from a hospital who needs a level of nursing -- care that is not available in the shelters. Although the Emergency Housing Task Force gathered some information about this need in the fall of 2000, there is not a clear picture of how many homeless persons have such needs, or how often these situations arise.

To address this issue, Supervisor Hudgins moved that the Board direct the County Executive and the Health Care Advisory Board to collect current year information on numbers of homeless persons who have medical needs that cannot be adequately served in the County's shelters, the types of situations presented, and possible alternatives for providing the needed care. Appropriate representation from the health care community should be included in assessing the issue, and benchmarking how other communities handle these situations should also be part of developing a recommendation on how the County should address the issue. Staff in the Department of Health, as well as the Department of Family Services and the Department of Systems Management for Human Services, and other agencies if needed, should support this effort. Supervisor Connolly seconded the motion.

Supervisor Connolly asked unanimous consent that the Board direct staff to pay particular attention to the number of detoxification beds. Without objection, it was so ordered.

The question was called on the motion and it carried by a vote of seven, Supervisor Bulova, Supervisor Frey, and Supervisor Gross being out of the room.

53. CERTIFICATE OF APPRECIATION FOR MR. PHIL LILIENTHAL (HUNTER MILL DISTRICT) (Tape 5)

Supervisor Hudgins said that Mr. Phil Lilienthal and his wife Lynn were volunteers more than 36 years ago in the Peace Corps in Ethiopia. Now he has decided to make his passion a reality and return to Africa. The years in between have not been empty because for 36 uninterrupted years Mr. Lilienthal operated a boy's summer camp, Camp Winnebago, in Kents Hill, Maine.

Mr. Lilienthal is building Camp Sizanani which is scheduled to open in January 2004 and is located about 40 minutes outside of Soweto. The camp will house 100 children, all infected with the AIDS virus, and the nine-day pilot project is a partnership with an HIV/AIDS Clinic near Johannesburg. Mr. Lilenthal said, "A camp can give children some fun in their lives." He also said that "After two weeks, they may think they are as good as anyone else and they might just start believing it."

Therefore, Supervisor Hudgins moved that the Board direct staff to prepare a certificate of appreciation in recognition for Mr. Lilienthal's outstanding humanitarian efforts in building Camp Sizanani, a haven for African children infected with the AIDS virus. Chairman Hanley seconded the motion and it carried by a vote of eight, Supervisor Bulova and Supervisor Frey being out of the room.

54. APPOINTMENTS TO THE RESTON COMMUNITY CENTER BOARD OF GOVERNORS (HUNTER MILL DISTRICT) (Tape 5)

(APPTS) Supervisor Hudgins said that on October 18, 2003, the Reston Community Center held its annual preference poll election for its Board of Governors. The following individuals were elected to serve three-year terms on the Reston Community Center Board of Governors:

· Mr. Bill Bouie

· Mr. Joseph Lombardo

· Mr. Carl Levine

Supervisor Hudgins moved that the Board appoint the above individuals to serve on the Reston Community Center's Board of Governors so that the new members can be seated at the next Board of Governors meeting. Supervisor Connolly seconded the motion and it carried by a vote of eight, Supervisor Bulova and Supervisor Frey being out of the room.

55. VIRGINIA MUNICIPAL LEAGUE (VML) COMMENTS (Tape 5)

Supervisor Connolly distributed to Board Members copies of comments that Senator John H. Chichester presented at the VML conference this morning.

(NOTE: Later in the meeting, this item was acknowledged. See Clerk's Summary Item CL#59.)

56. RESIDENTIAL ARCHITECTURAL PLAN REVIEW PROCESSING TIMES (Tape 5)

Supervisor Connolly said that over the summer, concerns were raised about the excessive delays and backlogs of building plan reviews and fire inspections. He commended the County Executive, the Fire Department, and Building Code Services for diligently identifying the problems and solutions to these problems.

Unfortunately, residential architectural plan review processing is now taking several more weeks to complete as compared to processing times over the summer. Processing times have continued to expand over the past year. It now takes upwards of three months to obtain building permits whereas last year it took four weeks. The inconvenience and cost imposed on individuals and business is unacceptable.

Therefore, Supervisor Connolly moved that the Board direct the:

· County Executive and the Director of the Office of Building Code Services to determine what measures can be immediately implemented to accelerate the building plan review process.

· County Executive report at the Board's November 17, 2003, meeting with an update detailing the status of accelerating the time frame of building permit reviews.

Supervisor McConnell seconded the motion and it carried by a vote of nine, Supervisor Frey being out of the room.

A brief discussion ensued.

57. ADOPT-A-FAMILY PARTNERSHIP (Tape 5)

Supervisor Connolly said that the holiday season can be a festive time but for many families struggling to get by, it can be difficult. He said that every year his office, along with many others in Fairfax County, participates in the annual Adopt-a-Family program sponsored by the Office of Partnerships. The Adopt-a-Family Partnership was established in 1988 to help working low-income families provide special holidays. Last year, through the generous support of many volunteers, the program served 125 families.

Supervisor Connolly encouraged Board Members to participate in this wonderful program.

Therefore, Supervisor Connolly asked unanimous consent that the Board direct the Office of Public Affairs to advertise on Channel 16 contact information for the Adopt-A-Family program. Without objection, it was so ordered.

A brief discussion ensued.

58. BEARS IN CRUISERS PART II (Tape 5)

Supervisor Connolly said that earlier this month the citizens of the County saw the extraordinary capabilities and resources the Police Department brought to bear on the investigation and capture of crime spree criminals who kidnapped a US Senator's wife. He said that he is confident that the case developed by the County Police Department will lead to a successful prosecution. What may have been overshadowed by the national media attention was another kidnapping.

Supervisor Connolly noted that this one began with a carjacking in Manassas. A four-year-old boy was trapped in his car seat as the carjacker fled. Thanks to coordination between police departments and dispatchers, Fairfax County officers were in position along I-66, prepared to stop the car should it come their way. It did. Master Police Officer Joe Alfreda assumed responsibility for rescuing the boy as officers closed in on the car. Seconds later Officer Alfreda was holding a frightened, crying child. As a McLean District officer participating in the "Bears in Cruisers" program, MPO Alfreda did what comes naturally. He asked the child if he would like a teddy bear.

Therefore, Supervisor Connolly asked unanimous consent that the Board direct staff to send a letter of thanks to the May Company and Tysons Comer Center for their continued support of the "Bears in Cruisers" program and invite Master Police Officer Alfreda and others involved to appear before the Board to be recognized for their efforts. Without objection, it was so ordered.

Supervisor McConnell expressed appreciation to Mrs. Charlene Murphy, wife of Planning Commission Chairman Peter F. Murphy, for collecting bears.

59. VIRGINIA MUNICIPAL LEAGUE (VML) COMMENTS (Tape 5)
