Residents were previously promised community-serving businesses and retail as part of the MetroWest development, she said. “I think this is an important development forward, and the housing absolutely is very necessary in the greater Vienna Metro area,” Palchik said during Tuesday’s meeting. Palchik also thanked county staff, the applicant and her office for working to ensure the proposal receives a timely review. Board Chair Jeff McKay seconded Palchik’s motion. The board approved it by voice vote, with no opposition or abstentions recorded. Scheduling the hearing does not indicate that supervisors support the applications. The board matter states that the action should not be considered a favorable recommendation and does not exempt the applicant from county ordinances, regulations or development standards. The applications are identified as PCA 2003-PR-022-04 and CDPA 2003-PR-022-002. The Planning Commission will consider them Sept. 30 before they advance to the Board of Supervisors for its Oct. 13 public hearing. Get more local news delivered straight to your inbox.
