Civic Affairs: There was a public hearing on April 20th for a plan amendment for the property south of Wall Road to change the plan designation to allow for additional residential use on this parcel. A committee member attended on behalf of CHHA.
Diversified, the appraisal company working for Shirley Construction, has requested a meeting regarding common area easement negotiation. They will need to enter into a temporary construction easement and permanent easement related to the widening of Centreville road. Board members will meet with them to resolve this matter.
Fairfax County Dept of Transportation is finishing the final report on if Chantilly Highlands qualifies for the Residential Traffic Administration Program (R-TAP), and is recommending Watch for Children signs be added in the neighborhood. The Fairfax County Board of Supervisors will probably vote on this in July. No changes will be made without community input.
A committee will be established to work on negotiations with Lincoln Properties. Lincoln Properties is the developer of the parcel just west of the neighborhood on Centreville Road. We will try to arrange for them to come see the board and discuss their zoning proposal and alternatives.

Architectural Control Committee: The sub-committee reviewed 2 cases and the ACC will meet with the homeowners to resolve differences.
A new member, Brian Keagy, has joined the ACC committee. Brian was warmly welcomed.
The ACC has received the data base to allow them to log and track the results of the walk through. Letters to homeowners with ACC violations from the walk through is delayed while the ACC reviews these cases.

Neighborhood Watch: No new business to discuss at this time. A board member has attended monthly neighborhood watch coordinators meetings and Fairfax County Citizens Advisory Committee meetings. As the days get longer and as schools let out for the summer, please report suspicious activity in the neighborhood to the Fairfax County Police.

Communications - Newsletter and Website: Announcements and articles upcoming were discussed. Directory format was discussed.

Database: The board member and committee have filled database requests and will work to clean up the database and collect emails.

New Business:
MS Fundraiser:
The board decided to support this effort by allowing the group to use the facility free of charge; however, cleaning fees are the responsibility of the group.
Community Wide Trash Service:
This matter was researched and the research showed that group services would not be discounted enough to make the idea worth the effort involved.
Basketball Court/Multi-purpose Court at Tennis Courts:
Basketball courts were voted on by homeowners previously, and were not approved due to cost.
Volleyball Pit:
A resident inquired about installing a volleyball pit at the pool. This idea was passed on to the long range planning committee for their consideration when forming the plan.

Meeting Adjournment: Mark Hassinger made a motion to adjourn the meeting and Jeff Boehlert seconded it. The meeting was adjourned at 9:06pm.
