PRESENTER: Ken Knueven, President

Board Motion: Move to approve the request of Camp Sunshine, in coordination with the Lake Anne Merchants Association (LARCA), to hold its annual winter fundraiser, the “Polar Dip”, in Lake Anne on Saturday, February 7, 2015, under the condition that LARCA and Camp Sunshine meet the following conditions:

a. Liability waivers (approved and/or supplied by the Association) and other appropriate documentation required by Reston Association’s General Counsel must be signed by each person participating in the event prior to the event date.

b. A Certificate of Insurance (with minimum limits stipulated by the Association) must be supplied naming the Association an additional insured prior to the event date.

c. Notice shall be provided to swimming event participants by the Association and event sponsor disclosing that the Association does not "maintain" the water quality of the Lake(s) to swimming standards.

d. The event’s sponsors, LARCA and Camp Sunshine, are required to provide supervision for the event, e.g., a specified number of rowboats (with senior lifesaving occupant) based on the length of the course and number of participants.

e. Lifeguards hired or used by the event sponsors must have current certifications, and, upon request by the Association, proof of certification will be supplied.

f. The event’s sponsors must notify Fairfax County Fire and Rescue of the pending event, no less than ten days prior to the event date. The sponsors must have certified rescue divers on hand for the event.

g. Any incurred costs to hold the event shall be borne by the sponsoring applicant/organization.

h. Reston Association reserves the right to cancel/postpone the event for any reason including but not limited to poor environmental or weather conditions (blinding snow, ice storm, etc.).

BACKGROUND Over the past several years, the Lake Anne Merchants Association has requested the use of Lake Anne to host a Polar Dip to benefit Camp Sunshine; a non-profit organization located on the shores of Sebago Lake in Casco, Maine. It is a retreat for children with life threatening illnesses and their entire families. It is the only program of its kind in the nation. Participating families have a child diagnosed with cancer, kidney disease, lupus, or other life-threatening illnesses. Each week of camp for 40 families includes workshops for adults, recreational opportunities for children and parents, and 24-hour on-site medical and psychosocial support. There is no charge to the participating families for this exceptional retreat. Events like the Polar Plunge raise funds to cover participating families, and the majority of camp activities are run by volunteers.

CONSENT CALENDAR ITEM 7: Proposed Assessments & Finance Resolution 12; HOA/PUD Questionnaire

Fees

PRESENTER: Ken Knueven, President

Board Motion: Move to approve the proposed Assessments & Finance Resolution 12; HOA/PUD Questionnaire Fees.

BACKGROUND One of the many tasks managed by the RA Covenants Team is responding to requests for HOA/PUD questionnaires from financial institutions processing home buyer loans. Lenders use information from these questionnaires to determine whether the home or unit in a project they are mortgaging meets certain, specific criteria. Generally, each lender has its own unique form, which is a legally binding document. Often times these forms can take a great deal of staff time and other resources. In an effort to reduce the amount of time spent by RA staff responding to these requests, staff, in coordination with legal counsel, has drafted the attached proposed Assessments & Finance Resolution 12; HOA/PUD Questionnaire Fees, which provides a Standard HOA/PUD Questionnaire Form with all of the information typically required by mortgage and title companies. If approved by the Board of Directors, this form will be made available to lenders through RA’s website free of charge. Alternately, for lenders who require that a special form be completed by the Association, RA will charge a fee in accordance with the attached HOA/PUD Questionnaire Fee Schedule and as delineated in the draft resolution. BUDGET IMPACT On average staff receives just over 1,000 requests per year. Of these, about 40 percent request additional information. As such, the anticipated revenue from requests could be about $4,000 per year. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends approval of the proposed Assessments & Finance Resolution 12; HOA/PUD Questionnaire Fees.

See the attached for draft resolution, standard questionnaire form, and special questionnaire request form.

WHEREAS, the Board of Directors is responsible for the administration and operation of the Association consistent with the amended provisions of the Reston Documents; and WHEREAS, from time to time, RA is requested by lenders and others to provide information regarding the Association for their consideration in underwriting a loan or loans, such requests oftentimes coming in the form of a questionnaire (“HOA/PUD Questionnaire” or “Questionnaire”); and WHEREAS, RA has determined that it would be appropriate in order to streamline the process to develop and provide, as necessary and requested, a standard form response (“Standard Response”) to such written lender Questionnaires which would substantially respond to the inquires made by individual lenders, rather than responding individually to every request made by every lender; and WHEREAS, RA wishes to adopt such a Standard Response and to offer it to lenders interested in obtaining the information contained therein. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Board of Directors on behalf of RA adopts the Standard Response attached hereto as Exhibit A and incorporated by reference herein, as the response offered to lenders requesting information pertaining to the Association; and PROVIDED FURTHER, that RA staff is directed to update the pertinent information contained in the Standard Response as necessary and appropriate from time to time.

We share in your department’s enthusiasm and are thankful for the diligent work and ongoing investments being made in the area implementing many of the Reston Metrorail Access Group’s (RMAG) recommendations. We further appreciate your commitment to a dialogue with us in understanding local station access issues through your participation in the Hunter Mill District Transportation Advisory Council. Now that the Silver Line has been in service for over 12 weeks, several issues have been identified by community members that directly impact safe and convenient bicycle and pedestrian access to the Wiehle-Reston East Metro Station. An attachment to this letter details our concerns and provides realistic and potentially implementable solutions for your department’s consideration. We respectfully request that these issues are examined and coordinated as necessary with other stakeholder organizations such as VDOT, MWAA, WMATA and Comstock Partners. On behalf of the Reston Association, I want to thank you and your staff for your existing efforts and considering our requests. We are thankful to have a strong partner at FCDOT and would be glad to meet with you or your staff, including on-site in the field, to further discuss these challenging access issues for cyclists and pedestrians. Please do not hesitate to call me at (XXX-XXX-XXXX) or e-mail me at [email protected]. On Behalf of the Board of Directors of the Reston Association, First Name, Last Name Title CC: Hon. Catherine M.

Wiehle Avenue and Sunrise Valley Drive (Map ID nos. 23 & 24) With the opening of the Silver Line, pedestrian traffic at this intersection has increased considerably. We are very thankful for the previous completion of significant improvements at this intersection which included a new traffic signal and upgraded crosswalks. However, due to the heavy volume and speeds of right-turning vehicles from southbound Wiehle Ave. to westbound Sunrise Valley Dr., the consequent low rate of drivers yielding to pedestrians presents a stressful and challenging environment for the critical crossing of this channelized free flow right turn, as shown in Figure 1. In addition to the existing black and neon yellow pedestrian crossing advisory signs shown, there is a “Yield to Pedestrians in Crosswalk” advance white and black advisory sign shown in Figure 2. Relocating both the advisory signs and regulatory sign closer to the actual crossing location shown would reinforce the right of way for pedestrians and the expectation of drivers to yield.

Figure 1 (left) – Free flow right turn: southbound Wiehle Ave to westbound Sunrise Valley Dr. Figure 2 (right) - Advance regulatory sign at Wiehle Ave./Sunrise Valley Dr.

A potential near term solution is the addition of advance yield line pavement markings (triangle shaped “sharks teeth”) accompanied by “Yield Here to Pedestrians” signs as shown in Figure 3.

Another near term improvement at this location could be the addition of Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacons (RRFBs) which VDOT has received interim approval for by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA). These high intensity flashing LED lights activated only by a pedestrian when crossing (as opposed to passively flashing light and signs) have been shown to dramatically increase driver yielding behavior throughout the United States. This treatment is shown in Figure 4. These would be combined with the existing black and neon yellow pedestrian crossing advisory signs shown in Figure 1 previously. Figure 4 – Example of RRFBs installation at uncontrolled crosswalk

A longer term solution with the potential to reduce vehicle travel speeds and drastically improve driver yielding behavior could include the reconstruction of the crosswalk as a raised speed table. This treatment is used extensively in conjunction with

channelized right turns in bicycle and pedestrian friendly Boulder, Colorado and is shown in Figure 5. Results from Boulder’s own studies regarding the effectiveness of this treatment are summarized at the following link: http://www.pedbikeinfo.org/data/library/details.cfm?id=3722

Wiehle Ave and Eastbound Dulles Toll Road off-ramp (Map ID nos. 27 & 29)  We are similarly thankful for the improvements previous delivered to this intersection when the westbound Dulles Toll Road was reconstructed, including the right turn on red prohibition for vehicles and transit buses. However the compliance of drivers with this regulation in part depends on the visibility of associated signage. With this in mind, it appears the “No Turn On Red” sign located on the right hand side of the approach on the nearside of the intersection is obscured by a blue motorist services sign reading “Gas-Food-Lodging” as shown in Figure 6. Figure 6 – Obstructed view of “No Turn on Red” regulatory sign.

If it is determined that this blue sign is still needed, a potential solution is to relocate the sign to the same post as the “No Turn on Red Sign”. This would be consistent with a similar sign combination at the westbound Dulles Toll Road off-ramp adjacent intersection (Map ID no. 4) as shown in Figure 7.

Figure 7 – Combined signs at eastbound Dulles Toll Road off-ramp

6  

Wiehle Avenue and Westbound Dulles Toll Road on-ramp (Map ID no. 4)  We understand that the currently unsignalized bicycle and pedestrian crossing of the westbound Dulles Toll Road on-ramp will be improved as part of FCDOT project no. RMAG-097. We ask that the county please continue to keep us informed as design proceeds and we would appreciate the ability to provide constructive feedback while being mindful to help keep the project on schedule and budget. The current configuration is shown in Figure 8. Figure 8 – Southbound Wiehle Ave. right turn and westbound Dulles Toll Road on-ramp

In the interim a low cost improvement that could potentially be implemented is the installation on the right of a warning/regulatory sign such as one of the options shown in Figure 9. Ideally two signs would be installed, one directly in line with the driver’s view on the far side of the intersection (either overhead on the signal span wire or in the vicinity of the green guide sign) and another located nearside to the right of the turn lane just prior to the on-ramp and crosswalk. We please ask that this low cost countermeasure be considered while the larger signal upgrade project is still under development.

Wiehle Avenue and Reston Station Boulevard (Map ID nos. 17 and 18)  The intersection of Wiehle Ave. and Reston Station Blvd. sees heavy pedestrian and bicycle traffic, typically coming from and heading toward the W&OD trail. The primary crossing movement is shown in Figure 10.

Figure 10 – View of Reston Station Blvd crossing looking south

Due to the heavy turning movements of vehicles and the conflict that exists, a potential near term solution is to prohibit right turns on red (at all times) with signage on both the traffic signal mast arm as well as nearside in proximity to the stop bar. Then a leading pedestrian interval green indication for the crossing movement could potentially be provided that would allow users a “head start” and put them in better view of turning drivers once the green light for permissive vehicle right turns begins. An example of this countermeasure is shown in Figure 11.

An additional issue identified at this location is that while the sidewalk shown previously in Figure 10 appears to continue around the corner to the west (along the northern side of Reston Station Blvd.) it currently ends short of the station with no crossing or accessible curb ramp provided. This situation is shown in Figures 12 and 13. Due to the potential for visually impaired or mobility device users to mistake this sidewalk for usable and accessible path, a temporary barrier and/or sign guiding users to the crosswalk shown previously in Figure 10 may be warranted until a future connection is made. Figure 12 (left) – View toward the west of sidewalk along north side of Reston Station Blvd. Figure 13 (right) – View toward the east of abrupt end of sidewalk with no crossing provided.

Wiehle Avenue and Sunset Hills Road (Map ID nos. 20, 21 and 32)  This is an extremely challenging intersection for travelers on foot or bike. With over eight lanes to cross on Sunset Hills alone, the stressful experience faced by many cannot be overstated. While “No Turn On Red” black and white regulatory signs (with an additional “When Pedestrians Are Present” sign plaque) have been installed on several approaches, field observations indicate that compliance by drivers is very low. An example at the southwest corner of the intersection is shown in Figure 14. Additionally a much smaller sign with the potential for being overlooked by drivers is located on the southbound approach to the intersection as shown in Figure 15.

Figure 14 (left) – Signage at eastbound Sunset Hills Rd. right turn and Wiehle Ave. Figure 15 (right) - Small regulatory signage at southbound Wiehle Ave. and Sunset Hills Rd.

This pathway and crossing is a major connection for travelers on both bike and foot to and from the W&OD trail as well as points north in Reston. In keeping with the County’s vision for multimodal-minded design in transit station activity centers, the “When Pedestrians Are Present” signage is potentially redundant and may lead to confusion for drivers if cyclists are also present waiting to cross the intersection. It therefore may be better to eliminate this additional sign plaque while retaining the right turn on red restriction at all hours. Additional measures that could be taken include: - Relocating the sign in Figure 14 to the buffer space between curb and sidewalk

- Upgrading the sign shown in Figure 15 to the same size as the one in Figure 14

- Using an appropriate post mounting height to maintain a path clear of vertical and lateral obstructions for pedestrians and cyclists on the sidewalk

- Installing the same sign on the overhead traffic signal mast arms

- Providing a leading pedestrian interval for the crossing (see discussion below) Combined with the existing right turn on red restriction, a leading pedestrian interval green indication for this heavily used Sunset Hills Rd. crossing (and potentially Wiehle Ave. also) movement could potentially be provided that would allow users a “head start” and put them in better view of turning drivers once the green light for permissive vehicle right turns begins. An example of this countermeasure was shown previously in Figure 11.

10  

Sunset Hills Road and Metro Center Drive/Isaac Newton Square West (Map ID Nos. 1, 22 and 28) Since the opening of the station and the on-site Fairfax County secure “bike room”, perhaps the most heavily used connection for cyclists and many pedestrians has been to the W&OD via Metro Center Dr. Similar to the aforementioned difficulties faced at the Reston Station Blvd. and Sunset Hills Rd. intersections with Wiehle Ave., this signalized intersection could benefit dramatically from right turn on red restrictions and a leading pedestrian interval for the crossing. The intersection approaches and crossing are shown in Figure 16 and 17. Combined with a right turn on red restriction, a leading pedestrian interval green indication for this heavily used Sunset Hills Rd. crossing movement would allow users a “head start” and put them in better view of turning drivers once the green light for permissive vehicle right and left turns begins. An example of this countermeasure was shown previously in Figure 11. Figure 16 (left) – Southbound Isaac Newton Sq. West approach to Sunset Hills Rd. Figure 17 (right) – Crossing of Sunset Hills Rd. through intersection

Additionally, due to the heavy volume of pedestrians using the “shared use” sidewalk along Metro Center Dr., many cyclists choose to avoid this conflict and ride in the roadway. When doing this, cyclists have reported difficulty in being detected by the signal detection loops embedded in the pavement. This has led to erratic and often aggressive behavior by drivers coming from the Isaac Newton Square business park wanting to take a right onto westbound Sunset Hills Rd. or on the opposite approach wishing to turn right onto eastbound Sunset Hills Rd. from Metro Center Dr. Drivers have been reported using their horn, make profane hand gestures, shouting and swerving their vehicle abruptly around the waiting cyclists in order to turn around them from the left most lane to register their displeasure with cyclists otherwise peacefully and lawfully using the intersection. For these reasons, a short term solution could be to investigate the sensitivity of the signal loop detectors and if cyclists are able to be detected, an MUTCD-compliant pavement marking and sign as shown in Figure 18 and 19 could be installed.

11

Sources: left - Gary Rides Bikes blog (Santa Monica, CA); right - 2009 MUTCD Wiehle-Reston East Station Driveways and Wayfinding The final issues identified affect the station facility itself and would likely need to be coordinated with representatives from Comstock. This includes a gutter pan design that could represent a hazard for cyclists accessing the bike parking room or the ramp leading to the “plaza level”. An illustration of this gutter pan is shown in Figure 20. Because of the risk this “lip” poses to a bicycle wheel, if it is determined that drainage would not be overly impacted, a possible solution would be to “grind” down the feature until a smoother transition in the gutter pan can be achieved.

Figure 20 – Driveway gutter pan “lip” example at station

As bicycle and pedestrian traffic continues to make up a significant number of station users, the installation of wayfinding signage that would help to direct users to and from such features at Wiehle Ave., Sunset Hills Rd. and the W&OD trail merit investigation. We know FCDOT shares the Reston community’s desires for all users to have a safe and pleasant visit to the area and we would be happy to assist the county in the design of a small but immensely beneficial and effective wayfinding program in the station vicinity.

CONSENT CALENDAR ITEM SUMMARY November 20, 2014

CONSENT CALENDAR ITEM 9: Fairfax County Bus Stop Easement Request

PRESENTER: Ken Knueven, President

Board Motion: Move to dedicate a portion of Common Area, Section 4, Parcel 1-A and grant grading and temporary construction easements over RA Common Area Section 4, Parcel 1-A to Fairfax County to make bus stop improvements including a concrete pad and related appurtenances, subject to review and approval by RA’s legal counsel and Design Review Board.

BOARD AUTHORITY In accordance with Deed Section IV.2(g) the Board of Directors has the right to grant easements or the right of access over the Common Area. As such, the Board must vote to grant the necessary easements and conveyances for this project.

BACKGROUND As part of the County’s efforts to improve transit access and facilities, RA, and in particular the Design Review Board, has been approached by the County for several bus stop improvements. Most are in the rights of way and some implicate private property. This particular one has very minor impacts on RA common area, including some minor grading and tree impact. Staff will be evaluating the site drawings to determine what, if any, changes may be required to reduce these impacts prior to it going to DRB. If changes are required which impact the extent of the easements and dedication, this item will be not be forwarded to the Full Board.

BUDGET IMPACT This easement request has almost no budget impact. The County has offered compensation of $1,300.00 for the dedication and easement rights, which are immediately adjacent to the Lawyers Road right of way.

STAFF RECOMMENDATION RA staff recommends forwarding to the full Board of Directors for action and subsequent approval of the dedication and easements, subject to review and approval by legal counsel and the Design Review Board.

Safe Routes to School – Awards Presentation Sally Smallwood, FCPS SRTS Coordinator

Kelley Westenhoff, Chair, Pedestrian & Bicycling Advisory Committee Ken Knueven, President

Introduction by Kelley Westenhoff, Chair of PBAC: As you may know, Reston was recently designated as a bronze-level Bicycle Friendly Community by the League of American Bicyclists. Out of the application process for that designation came some very specific recommendations for further improvement, which have become implementation goals for Reston Association's Pedestrian and Bicycle Advisory Committee (PBAC). One of the goals that is most fun and rewarding for the committee is working with the Safe Routes to School (SRTS) initiative to encourage parents, teachers, and students to think of ways they can get to school under their own locomotion by bicycling and walking. To encourage the students, the PBAC came up with four awards that the eight Reston elementary schools would compete for. There are two awards for International Walk to School Day in the fall and two for the International Bike to School Day in the spring. For each event, one award is given for the highest number of students who participate on the day of the event, and another is given for the highest percentage of students in a particular school who participate. Because our schools have a wide range of enrollment, this gives every school an opportunity to compete. The awards, designed and made by PBAC member Rick Landers with the assistance of members of Nova Labs, will travel from school to school each year as we celebrate Reston's students who make the healthy choice to walk or bike. Today, we are pleased to present the awards for the 2014 Walk to School Day.

PRESENTER: Ken Knueven, President

Supported Strategic Objective:

Sustainability & Community Viability

To effectively manage all resources, resulting in a sustainable and viable community.

1. Annually, develop and allocate appropriate financial resources to sustain and enhance the Association’s physical infrastructure.

Board Motion: Move to adopt proposed amendments (attached) to Assessment & Finance Resolution 2; Assessment Rates & Collection Procedures:

1. Establishing a reduced rate of 50 percent of the Annual Assessment for those property owners who qualifying for a real-estate tax reduction from Fairfax County;

2. Setting the Annual Assessment rate for those who own federally or subsidized units and elder care and assisted living units at $10 below annual rate; and

3. Exhibit A of Assessment & Finance Resolution 2; Assessment Rates & Collection Procedures to reflect the proposed base $642 Annual Assessment Rates, Installment Plan Fees, Collection Fees, and respective due dates for 2015.

BACKGROUND As per Assessment & Finance Resolution 1; Biennial Budget Development Process, the CEO is required to present proposed revisions to the Year Two budgets to the Board, and hold at least one public hearing on such proposed revisions to allow Members the opportunity to review and comment on the proposed revisions, understand the drivers of any assessment increase or decrease, and comment on the process. Section V.8(a)(2) of the Amended Reston Deed allows the Board to provide reductions in annual assessment fees for residents who qualify for real estate tax relief. However, no specific percentage rate for those reductions is stated in the Reston Deed. Reductions have arbitrarily hovered at approximately 50 percent of the general assessment paid by the vast majority of RA members in recent years. Approximately 450 out of the 17,000 residential units in Reston are projected to receive county tax relief in 2015 and therefore would qualify for the 50 percent reduction. Two other RA residential groups, covered under Section V.8(a)(2) currently receive $10 assessment reductions with no changes proposed for 2015. They include:

· State or federally subsidized apartment units. · Housing for the elderly and/or assisted living facilities.

Additionally, there are projected to be approximately 120 residential units in Reston with real estate values at or below $128,400 that currently are charged, as per Section V.8(a)(1) of the Amended Reston Deed, assessments at 0.5 percent of property value. No changes are proposed for properties that fall into this category, nor are there plans related to the redistribution or restructuring of how assessments are levied.

With the few exceptions outlined above, RA uses a flat-rate system that charges all homeowners the same annual fee regardless of property value. BUDGET IMPACT No change in the 2015 Assessment rate of $642 is being proposed by Staff; however, adjustments and additional project requests are being made to the 2015 Operating and Capital Budgets which were approved by the Board on November 2013. The additional operating expense requests are as follows:

1. Development of Urban Design Guidelines: Consultant to assist with developing urban design guidelines for the DRB when reviewing mixed-use development and re-development. Cost estimate - $30k

2. Parks, Recreation and Open Space Survey: The survey will be conducted in coordination with the Parks

and Recreation Advisory Committee to provide useful data to the organization to develop the 2016/2017 bi-annual budgets and for use in discussions with developers. Cost estimate - $30k

STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the Board adopt proposed amendments (attached) to Assessment & Finance Resolution 2; Assessment Rates & Collection Procedures, establishing a reduced rate of 50 percent of the Annual Assessment for those property owners who qualifying for a real-estate tax reduction from Fairfax County and a $10 assessment reduction rate for state or federally subsidized apartment units; and, housing for the elderly and/or assisted living facilities.

2. ASSESSMENT DUE DATES.

a. General Rule. The Annual Assessment shall be due on January 1 of that fiscal year, unless an alternative payment option described below is chosen by the Owner. For Assessments other than the Annual Assessment, the Assessment (or installments thereof) shall be due on such date(s) as established by resolution of the Board of Directors or as set forth in the applicable Reston Association’s Assessment notice.

b. Installment Plan. The Board of Directors may allow any Owner of a Lot or Apartment Unit, who has no outstanding balances or overdue sums owed to the Association from previous years, to pay the Annual Assessment, together with a service charge (which shall be deemed to be a cost of collection of the Assessment) pursuant to the following installment plan:

i. Pay the Assessment in six installments, by remitting to the Association, on or before March 1, of that fiscal year, the initial payment specified in the Annual Assessment notice, and as further specified in Exhibit A, attached hereto and incorporated herein. The Owner shall be responsible for making the remaining five payments in a timely manner, in equal monthly installments as specified in the Annual Assessment notice and in Exhibit A, so that such payments are received by the Association no later than the first calendar day of each month from April through August. Payment information will be provided on the Annual Assessment notice in lieu of mailing payment coupons. A service charge is included in the above amounts as specified in Exhibit A of this Resolution.

ii. If there is a default in the timely payment of any approved Installment Plan or any portion thereof, the Owner’s account is assessed a late fee per 4(a) below and the entire balance shall become immediately due and payable upon such default without any further action of the Board. This Resolution constitutes the Board’s authorization for Reston Association’s (“RA”) staff to automatically accelerate any such delinquent account, and where appropriate, for the Association’s attorney to automatically accelerate any such delinquent account referred to it for collection, without the need to obtain specific case-by-case direction from the Board in that regard.

the Annual Assessment rate in section 1(a) of this Resolution until such time as the Assessment applicable to his Lot, plus the service charge, shall have been paid in full. In other words, any reduction of the Annual Assessment rate shall be applied to reduce the last installment(s) due specified in section 2(b) of this Resolution above.

d. Category B Members; Owners of More Than 45 Units. Any Owner of more than forty-five Units may elect to pay the Annual Assessment applicable to his or her Units by paying in full by the date specified in Exhibit A for that fiscal year, or by executing and delivering to Reston Association on or before the date specified in Exhibit A, a Category B Promissory Note (Exhibit B), bearing interest at the rate of 12% per annum (or, if higher, the then applicable maximum contract interest rate pursuant to §6.2-303 of the Virginia Code), from the dates specified in Exhibit A, on the amount of the Annual Assessment outstanding. Payments are to be made in three installments due by the dates specified in Exhibit A for that fiscal year. The promissory note shall include a statement to the effect that upon default, any unpaid balance due on the note shall become immediately due and payable, without notice or demand. In the event any installment is not paid when due, the entire balance remaining shall be immediately due and payable, a late fee of 10% of the Annual Assessment amount per unit shall be assessed, and a certified Demand Letter, as provided in section 6(b) of this Resolution, will be mailed to the Owner(s).

3. ASSESSMENT NOTICES.

Prior to December 31st of each year, or as soon thereafter as feasible, each Owner of assessable Property shall be mailed an Annual Assessment notice for the upcoming fiscal year. Notice for other types of Assessments are sent as deemed appropriate by the Board of Directors or staff. Assessment and delinquency notices to Owners will be sent by Reston Association to the applicable Property address unless Reston Association is specifically notified in writing of an alternative billing or mailing address for the Property. It shall be the responsibility of the Owner(s) to promptly notify the Association, in writing, of any billing or mailing address changes. Once mailed by Reston Association, unless returned, the notice will be deemed to have been received by the Owner. Failure to receive any Assessment notice does not relinquish an Owner’s obligation to pay that Assessment or resulting fees, interest and other collection costs. If an Owner does not receive a notice within the expected or required time period, it is the Owner’s responsibility to contact RA to obtain a copy of the notice and to confirm the Owner’s correct mailing address.

4. ASSESSMENT LATE FEE/INTEREST/RETURNED CHECKS.

a. Late Fee. If any Assessment (including, e.g., Annual Assessments, Maintenance Assessments, Transfer Fees and Special Assessments) or installment thereof is not paid in full and received by the Reston Association in accordance with this Resolution and/or the applicable Assessment notice mailed by Reston Association, then the Owner’s account shall automatically be assessed a late fee per Lot or Apartment Unit equal to ten percent (10%) of the Assessment or installment thereof.

i. For Annual Assessments, an Owner’s account is deemed delinquent and assessed a late fee if payment in full of the Annual Assessment is not received by Reston Association on or before March 1st of that fiscal year, unless the Installment Plan as per section 2(b) of this Resolution is chosen by the Owner.

ii. For Assessments other than the Annual Assessment, an Owner’s account is deemed delinquent and assessed a late fee if payment in full of that Assessment (or installment, if applicable) is not received by Reston Association within ten (10) days after the applicable due date(s) unless otherwise specified in the Reston Association Assessment notice.

b. Interest. If an Owner’s account becomes thirty (30) or more days’ delinquent, then the Owner’s account is subject to interest charges at an annual rate of twelve percent (12%) (or if higher, at the then current maximum contract rate of interest pursuant to §6.2-303 of the Virginia Code), calculated on a daily basis and accruing from the applicable due date(s) until the account is paid in full. The failure of Reston Association to post interest charges on an account does not waive Reston Association’s right to later charge, demand, and collect interest from the due date if the account is forwarded to the Association’s attorney for collection, and the Reston Association’s attorney is hereby authorized, on behalf of the Reston Association, to charge, demand and collect interest on the overdue amounts accruing from the applicable due dates.

c. Returned Checks/Insufficient Funds. If a check or electronic debit is returned or rejected, the Reston Association shall assess a charge against the Owner’s account as specified in Exhibit A. Additionally, the Reston Association may seek the amount of any civil penalty authorized under §8.01-27.2 of the Virginia Code, as awarded by a Court, if payment in full on the dishonored check is not received within thirty (30) days, upon written notification thereof.

5. SALE OF PROPERTY.

In the event the Lot or Apartment Unit which is the subject of an Installment Plan as specified in section 2(b) of this Resolution, is being sold or otherwise transferred prior to the payment in full of the Annual Assessment, the entire balance remaining on such Annual Assessment, together with any other Assessments currently due and owing on the Lot, shall become immediately due and payable upon closing/settlement on the Lot or Unit, without any further action of the Board being required, regardless of whether the transferor is current in his or her installment payments.

On the date specified in Exhibit A, or as soon thereafter as feasible, the Reston Association will send a Reminder Notice to all Owners who have not paid that year’s Annual Assessment.

Each Owner to whom a Past Due Notice has been sent is assessed a charge (as specified in Exhibit A) to cover Reston Association’s administrative costs and the cost of mailing.

c. Annual Assessment Demand Letter(s).

i. For Owners with accounts still unpaid after thirty (30) days from the date of the Past Due Notice as referenced in Section 6.b. above, the Reston Association will send a certified Demand Letter to each such Owner demanding payment and notifying such delinquent Owner of the consequences of failing to pay within ten (10) days, including the filing of a lien in the Circuit Court of Fairfax County.

ii. The Demand Letter shall include a current Statement of the Account and shall also state that

the Reston Association’s Board of Directors may suspend all recreational and Common Area use privileges for each delinquent Owner after the applicable Owners have been given an opportunity to be heard by the Legal Committee or such other hearing established by the Reston Association Board of Directors.

iii. The Demand Letter will set the date and time of such hearing and any sanction that may be imposed. The resulting recommendations from the Legal Committee or such other hearing will be reviewed and approved by the Board of Directors.

ii. Partial payments will be applied to the oldest outstanding sums owed in any given year on a year to year basis in accordance with the following order of priority:

1. Any accrued interest in that year, 2. Any collection costs, including attorneys fees; 3. To the late fee and other fees and charges in that year; and then 4. To the oldest assessment balance owed in that year.

Referendum Fact Sheet Reston Deed Section VI.2(b)(15) Air-Conditioning Units

Why is the Air-Conditioning Covenant being sent to referendum? In July 2014, Reston Association’s (RA) Board of Directors received a petition signed by 110 Members of the Association who own residential Cluster property which is subject to Reston Deed Section VI.2(b)(15) on Air-Conditioning Units (the “Air-conditioning covenant” or “covenant”). The full text of Section VI.2(b)(15) is as follows:

“Air-Conditioning Units. In any residential Cluster in which central air-conditioning service is available to the Lot line, no individual air-conditioning units of any type shall be permitted. This covenant may only be amended or revoked by at least a two-thirds vote of the Category A Members of all residential Clusters on the service.”

The petitioners, representing approximately 32% of those Members of the Association entitled to vote on an amendment or revocation of the covenant, requested that the Reston Association Board of Directors “repeal Section VI.2(b)(15) from the Deed.” During its meeting of September 25, 2014, the Reston Association Board voted to send the issue to referendum amongst those residential Cluster properties eligible to vote on the covenant. What is RELAC? The Reston Lake Anne Air-Conditioning Corporation (RELAC) System was installed during Reston’s inception in 1963. It is a unique privately owned utility that pulls water from Lake Anne to provide chilled central air conditioning to many of the properties surrounding the lake. Designed to reduce external noise and enhance aesthetic appeal, due to the lack of outside compressors, the RELAC System is one of a few known systems of its kind in the U.S. Who is affected by the Air-Conditioning Covenant? In all, 343 residential Cluster properties are bound by the Air-conditioning covenant, requiring them to use the RELAC System. Lake Anne Condominium (106 residential units and 25 commercial units) and Vantage Hill Condominium (152 residential units) use the RELAC System but are not subject to Reston Deed Section VI.2(b)(15). What are the voting requirements for the Air-Conditioning Covenant referendum? On January 5, 2015, the Reston Association mailed ballots to all 343 residential Cluster properties subject to Reston Deed Section VI.2(b)(15) on Air-Conditioning Units. The quorum for a referendum is at least ten percent (10%) of the 343 Category A Members of all residential Clusters on the service eligible to vote. In order to approve the submitted referendum question at least two-thirds (2/3’s) of the 343 Category A Members of all residential Clusters on the service must be in favor of the question presented. All votes must be received by 5:00 pm, Friday, January 30, 2015.

Healthy Community Design Workshops – Reston residents and representatives from various land use/development firms participated in engaging and educational workshops entitled, “Rebuilding Reston – One Step at a Time”, led by public health and planning consultant Mark Fenton. Workshop discussions focused on opportunities for and the attributes of more walkable, bicycle-friendly settings, and the successes of specific communities.

Ultimately, the goal is to transform Reston into an even more engaging and healthy community where walking, biking, public transportation and social interactivity are cornerstones of our daily lives. The event was sponsored by: Walsh, Colucci, Lubeley & Walsh PC, The JBG Companies, Lake Anne Development Partners LLC, Comstock, McGuire Woods, and Odin, Feldman & Pittleman.

Stay tuned for more on this subject; during its December 2014 Regular meeting the Reston Association Board of Directors will be considering various strategies to advocate for improvements to our community multi-modal transportation facilities.

RA Snow Summit – The RA Snow Management & Removal Summit on November 6th was one aspect of a process the Association started in February to prepare for another snow season like we had in 2013-14. We were pleased by the turnout and were intrigued by several of the ideas generated by members. One suggestion offered was to

prioritize, by school, those sidewalks that would create the greatest benefit if shoveled. RA Staff are compiling the comments and questions received during the evening to formulate a plan with our partners at Fairfax County, as well as the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT), and other community groups. In the interim, the workshop was recorded and is available to view online. Additional comments and suggestions are welcome. We
