5. The next Sully District Council of Citizens Associations Membership meeting will be online and in person at the Sully Governmental Facility at 7:00 p.m. 29 January 2025.
   • Topic: State of Sully presented by Sully District Supervisor Kathy Smith

7. The JSDLU&TC met online on Monday, 20 January 2025.
   
   • Topics:
     1. 7:00 — Continued discussion of the proposed Mision Evangelica Jerusalem LA Celestial, Inc. located at 6321 Old Centreville Road, Centreville 20121
        • This was previously discussed at the Joint Committee's December 2024 meeting with the attendance of the mission's representatives. Sully Planning Commisioner, Evelyn Spain, asked that the representatives return this month so she would have time to research the matter.
        • The county staff report is available here
        • The committee had several concerns with the proposal:
        • The comments/objections from the history commission (reported by the Sully Planning Commissioner) need to be transmitted to staff and the BZA and the applicant. The committee would like to understand staff’s response to those comments. If the house cannot be moved or demolished or added on to, and has to be preserved in situ, what does that do? (Are the history commission’s comments in writing?)
        • If the Methodist Church across the street had to reduce from 1500 seats to 1100 seats because the road was substandard, why is it appropriate to approve a use for 200 more seats (or maybe 150 now) on that same road, which hasn’t been improved in the meantime? This is likely a question for staff (maybe they changed their mind in the last 30+ years).
        • A review of the staff report raised several specific unresolved questions:
          1. What is the deal with festivals, when are they, how many are there, are there limitations on the capacity or hours for those events?
          2. What exactly is proposed by the applicant with respect to outdoor lighting (fixtures, hours, locations)?
          3. What exactly is happening with the replanting of the areas where the applicant removed the trees?
          4. Can the church automatically add the day care or school without coming back through the process, for approval of an amendment?
          5. Is the parking configuration unsafe for the proposed location of the handicapped parking?
          6. Is there or is there not going to be parking on Old Centreville Road, either for the church or the “festival” events, rather than all parking being required onsite?
        • If there is an addendum to the staff report, dealing with the changes to the application, the committee hasn’t seen it, and would like to. What exactly changed since the original staff report?
        • What is the timeline for the task force reviewing the comprehensive plan Jay mentioned, and the application for Dick Labbe to put 10 or 12 houses behind the CVS drugstore? If Dick Labbe is volunteering to move the Sunnyside house to the historic district (if that is allowed) can that be incorporated into the application? If the house gets moved, then who takes the responsibility for maintaining it, and what is it used for?

   • Fairfax Federation Seeks Nominations for Fairfax County 2024 Citizen of the Year
     • The Fairfax County Federation of Citizens Associations is soliciting nominations for its 2023 Fairfax County Citizen of the Year. Each year, a selection committee of county-wide organizations meets to review nominations for the Federation's "Citizen of the Year" and merit awards. The winners are honored at our annual banquet, planned for Spring 2024
     • Both the Citizen of the Year Award and the Citation of Merit recognize and honor those citizens whose voluntary contributions of time and talent resulted in major accomplishments that have enhanced the quality of life for citizens of Fairfax County.
     • Eligibility:
       • Nominees must be current residents of Fairfax County.
       • Elected officials and full-time county or commonwealth employees are ineligible for consideration if their contributions are related to their full-time positions.
       • The Citizen of the Year is recognized for voluntary acts that are not related to employment.
     • Criteria:
       • Contributions and accomplishments must have countywide rather than local significance.
       • The nominee's achievements can be either:
         • General, such as multi-year community service with one or more organizations or activities with cumulative impact over the years of current importance or with positive implications for the future, or
         • Specific, including intense efforts as the major promoter of a single program or project completed in a finite period of time.
     • Persons whose contributions of time and talent resulted in major accomplishments that have enhanced the quality of life for citizens of Fairfax County, who do not meet the published eligibility standards for the Citizen of the Year consideration, may still be honored by the Federation. Please submit information about these nominees on the nomination form, indicating that this is an alternative nomination.
     • Nominations will be accepted until 28 Febuary 2025. The nomination form is available online from the Federation's website, http://www.fcfca.org/coy1.htm.
     • The Federation, established in 1940, is the countywide voice for homeowner, civic, and community associations. An all-volunteer organization, the Federation works on issues that impact Fairfax County residents, including education, transportation, environment, human services, land use, county budget, and county, state and federal legislation.
