Dranesville Supervisor Foust’s Office Temporarily Relocating Effective May 7
The McLean Governmental Center at 1437 Balls Hill Road, will soon be undergoing a major renovation effort to expand the facilities for the McLean District Police Station. Consequently, while the renovation is underway, the McLean office of Dranesville District Supervisor John Foust will be temporarily relocated. The renovation is estimated to take two years.
Effective Monday, May 7, the temporary site of the Dranesville Supervisor’s office will be 6649-A Old Dominion Drive, McLean 22101, in the McLean Square Shopping Center (also known as The Balducci’s Shopping Center). This is the same location that housed the Dolley Madison Library during its renovation in 2010 and 2011.
Supervisor Foust and his staff will still be reachable at their current telephone number and at their existing email addresses.
During the renovation period the McLean Police will still be located in the Governmental Center at 1437 Balls Hill Road. The public community room at that site, however, will not be available. In-person absentee voting for the general election in November will be moved to the Dolley Madison Library at 1244 Oak Ridge Avenue in Mclean.
For more information about the renovation and the move please call Ben Wiles in the office of Supervisor Foust at (703) 356-0551.

Plans Underway to Redevelop Lewinsville Senior Center
On February 27, Supervisor John Foust held an information meeting to discuss with the community, Fairfax County’s plans for the proposed redevelopment of the Lewinsville Senior Center site at 1609 Great Falls Street in McLean.
This project began in 2004, when the County approved the renovation of the building to include all the current uses, including 22 independent living units and 60 assisted living units. Economic factors caused the County to alter the plans for the housing units. The new plans, if approved by the Board of Supervisors, would include approximately 73 independent living apartments, the senior center, the Adult Day Care Center and the two children’s day care centers.
The February 27 meeting was well attended and the proposal presentation was well received by the community. Staff from various County agencies and representatives from Supervisor Foust’s office were available to respond to questions about the proposal.
Fairfax County plans to form a public-private partnership for the redevelopment under the Public Private Education Act, which allows school facilities and the private sector to work together on projects. Supervisor Foust believes that it is important that the taxpayer not be burdened with this project and that this partnership will help that happen.
The County’s Department of Housing and Community Development anticipates that it will put out a request for proposals in March 2011. It would then choose a developer who would submit an application for a special exception amendment for the updated facility. This application process will require that the County hold public hearings.
Paula Sampson, Director of Fairfax County Department of Housing and Community Development, was present at the meeting and offered assurances that the current residents will figure prominently in the planning process.
