At the Thursday, April 11, regular meeting of the Middleburg Town Council Mayor Bridge Littleton reminded those attending that the Loudoun County Board of Supervisors would hold public hearings on the County Comprehensive Plan amendment on April 24th and April 27th.

Littleton noted that he and Councilmember Leonard-Morgan was already signed up to speak and asked that all Council Members and members of the public sign up as well.

Noting that the Dulles Area Realtors Association and the Loudoun County Chamber of Commerce were pushing for more density in the plan, the Mayor said that people who could not appear in person could email their comments on the amendment to the County. It was critical for as many people opposed to the plan as possible to actually show up at the hearings, he continued. During the last meeting, he added, "approximately half of the people in the audience were associated with the Chamber of Commerce and were supporting growth."

COLT (the Coalition of Loudoun Towns), he said, was preparing a blueprint of the principles around which the County Comp Plan should be framed. He noted that all seven Mayors would be speaking in a row during the public hearing on April 24th.
