- Action: PCA/SEA
- Location: Chantilly Crossing Shopping Center, Lee Road just south of RT 50
Costco is seeking to add a fuel station to their shopping experience. They originally appeared before the LU&T committee in February. At that time the committee had no objections, but ask that they come back with more information and the results of the staff report.

- Proponent: Rick McBride, Regulatory Initiatives Staff, Office of the County Executive
- Action: Evaluate the land development process in fulfillment of the County's Economic Success Plan, specifically, Goal 3: Improving the Speed, Consistency and Predictability of the Land Development Process
- Location: Countywide
Rick McBride, working for Fairfax County, is helping to evaluate the land development process in fulfillment of the County's Economic Success Plan, specifically, Goal 3: Improving the Speed, Consistency and Predictability of the Land Development Process. They have been working with an outside consultant, Gartner, and are prepared to share Gartner's recommendations in each district to update interested citizens. His thought is that our land use committees provide the most logical opportunity and the committees could help advertise to interested citizens. The presentation will be similar to the one provided at the Development Process Committee on May 24. He expects to need 45 -60 minutes to provide good opportunity for questions. He would like to begin the meetings in late July.
He will be meeting with the Planning Commission on July 21st.
