    November 2009 Archives

    The Loudoun County Board of Supervisors (LCBOS) continued their review and consideration this month of a Limestone Overlay District (LOD) intended to place land use restrictions on 1,200 property owners on 14,000 acres north and south of Leesburg.  The LCBOS Transportation and Land Use Committee (TLUC) met on November 18th to discuss the proposed regulations and concerns raised since the public hearing on the issue in September. 

    The Virginia Housing Development Authority (VHDA) announced the availability of  below market rate loans under the SPARC program (Sponsoring Partnerships and Revitalizing Communities) for first-time homebuyers who meet VHDA eligibility requirements. The funds, available through June 30, 2010 or until expended, are administered by the Loudoun County Department of Family Services. Sales price and income limits apply.

    Experts from the Washington Airports Task Force and Loudoun County Zoning teamed up to provide members with an excellent presentation on land use compatibility near the Dulles airport this month.  Anita Kayser, Director, Washington Airports Task Force, and Mark Stulz, Loudoun County Zoning, discussed the Homebuyers Guide to Compatible Land Use Around Dulles Airport, Airport Impact Overlay District disclosure and awareness tools for homebuyers and property owners. For more information, click here for the presentation.  Special thanks to Vic Herman, Metlife Home Loans, for sponsoring this month's DAAR Lunch Matters.
