Storm Water Management Ponds
Storm water management facilities,

Also, do not sled or ski near roads—help

and family to avoid roads, ponds, and
construction sites.
See a Problem? Report It, Please!
The large storm water management
basins (“dry ponds”) throughout the
community are maintained by Fairfax
County. Although there are regular
inspections of each of these facilities,
local residents are often more aware
when something is wrong.
If you become aware of a maintenance

Proposed Minor Changes to Pool Rules
Public Hearing Is March 4
The Pool Pals
A group known as the Pool Pals focuses
on just that role. It includes resident
representatives who frequent each pool,
along with representatives of the pool
management company (NV Pools), the
fitness management company (WTS),
and the KROC staff.
Summary of Substantial Proposed
Changes in Policy Resolution #10:
u
u
u
u
Recommendations Proposed
At the end of the 2014 pool season, the
Pool Pals conducted a routine review of
the pool rules and came up with a few
recommendations. Since the pool rules
are part of a policy resolution (#10 – Pool
Rules), the revisions are also available in
a marked-up draft to ensure the changes
are easily identifiable.
u
Penalties for minor violations of the rules
will be applicable to all patrons rather
than just children;
A swimming proficiency test (25 meters)
may be required of any patron who
demonstrates questionable swimming
skills in the main pool;
A non-swimmer of any age will not
be allowed in the main pool without a
supervising person within immediate
reach;
The 15-minute break period each hour
may be waived by the pool manger
depending upon the number of patrons
in each area of the pool, the number
of lifeguards on duty, and the number
of supervising adults accompanying
children;
Information about swim lessons will
no longer be included in the pool rules,
but will continue to be provided in the
Kingstonian and on the website.
photo by Marco Vallejo
The 2015 pool season is still a few
months away, yet it’s a good time to
reflect on changes that may improve the
experience residents have when visiting
the Kingstowne pools.
Public Hearing Set for March 4
The proposed changes will be discussed
during a public hearing which has been
scheduled for Wednesday, March 4, 6:30 P.M.,
in the Thompson Center.
Comments
Comments can be submitted to kingstowne@
kingstowne.org or residents can present
comments in person at the public hearing on
March 4. For a copy of the proposed changes
in Policy Resolution #10, please go to www.
kingstowne.org or visit the KROC Business
Office in the Thompson Center, 2nd floor.

Yard Debris Pickup Season Begins March 1
Brown paper bags are perfect for grass
clippings, leaves, and twigs. Brush and limbs
should be cut and bundled with rope or twine.
Yard debris in brown paper bag
What Is Yard Debris?
Yard debris is an accumulation of
various products gathered from
your yard. Yard debris includes grass
clippings, twigs, fallen leaves, and
pruning remains. Hardscape materials
are also considered yard debris.
Yard Waste Is Recyclable
Yard waste is considered a by-product
of regular yard maintenance. For larger
yard debris items, a special pickup is
recommended. Starting March 1, yard
debris will be accepted for pickup on
Wednesdays.
Here are a few friendly reminders when
recycling yard waste:
• Branches should be 6 inches or less in
diameter, and 4 feet or less in length.
• Brush and limbs should be cut and
Page 12

March 2015
This pile of branches, limbs, and nonyard debris is not suitable for pickup.
Yard debris in clear plastic bag
bundled with rope or twine. See
example at top left, above.
• Grass clippings, leaves, and twigs
must be placed in a brown paper
bag, clear plastic bag, or black bag
marked with an “X.” See examples
above.
What Is a Special Pickup
by Republic Services?
Hardscape materials need a special
pickup. Hardscape materials include
dry stack stones, bricks, old plastic
pots (they are recyclable), dirt,
rocks, root balls, and similar items
weighing a maximum of 35 pounds.
Arrangements for a special pickup
can be made by contacting Republic
Services at 703-818-8222. Loads
larger than 35 pounds need to be
handled separately.
Yard debris in black plastic bag with “X”
Residents May Drop Off
Certain Items at Disposal Facility
Bricks, concrete, and dirt may also be
dropped off at designated disposal
facilities.
• I-95 Landfill (Lorton)
9850 Furnace Road, Lorton, VA 22079
Small amounts accepted
• I-66 Transfer Station (Fairfax)
4618 West Ox Road, Fairfax, VA 22030
Large amounts accepted
Please Help Preserve
Our Naturalized Areas
Please refrain from disposing of yard
waste in naturalized areas (woods).
When yard debris is disposed of in the
naturalized areas, the ecology of the
environment changes and may result in
an uneven balance of nature.

The Kingstowne Lawn
& Landscape Difference
At Kingstowne Lawn & Landscape, it is our people that make the difference. Most
of our team members have been with us for over five years, and twelve of them
have called Kingstowne home for a decade or more. It is this team longevity and
dedication to service that sets us apart in an industry sadly lacking in service quality.
Whether you’re a new or returning customer, you’ll find our field personnel to be
skilled and efficient – and our office staff to be knowledgeable and responsive.
Drawing strength from this amazing team of professionals, Kingstowne provides
superior service and attention to detail during all project phases.
Since 1997, Kingstowne Lawn & Landscape has been designing, building and caring
for landscapes to fit your lifestyle. With over a century of professional experience,
our team takes pride in keeping promises. From our initial meeting to the completed
project, we will treat you like royalty.

Mike is a true Northern Virginian who was born in Alexandria and
grew up in Clifton. In those days, Clifton was considered “the country,”
and that is where he fell in love with the outdoors. Mike decided to
put his love for the outdoors to work, so he hung up his suit and tie
and started a small, successful landscape company. After three years,
however, unexpected health issues cut into the time and energy
required to run his company. Opportunity knocked again when Mike
met the owner of Kingstowne Lawn & Landscape, Krisjan Berzins.
Mike soon came on board at Kingstowne, and for the past eight years
he has managed residential and commercial accounts and provided a
wealth of experience and professional service to our customers.

Focus on Trees in More Than 31 Neighborhoods
In 2011, KROC’s Neighborhood Landscape Initiative (NLI) began implementation
with the middle village. Since then, over 31 neighborhoods in all three villages have
seen improvements through the elevation and pruning of the trees in the common
areas, as well as removal of dead, dying, or damaged trees, or ones deemed a
liability issue.
Screening, Drainage, and Erosion Addressed
Trees suited for our area were installed where screening from major roads or other
N
townhomes was an issue. Various drainage and erosion areas were addressed by
installing new drainage, re-grading, and sodding.
Examples of 2011-2014 Neighborhood Improvements
Improvements are dramatic in many locations. Enjoy before-and-after pictures
from a few of the locations throughout the community.

AnnualArchitecturalInspections
“I can see clearly now, the snow has
gone, I can see all the dust bunnies in my
way. Gone are the cold days that kept me
inside, it’s going to be a bright,
bright sunshiny day!”
Spring will be here soon and so will the
annual task of spring cleaning.
Exterior “Spring Cleaning”
As you begin to take inventory of
cleaning supplies and plan your attack
on the dust bunnies inside–remember
to also walk around the outside of
your home and take inventory of some
exterior spring cleaning that may be
in order. This will play a helpful part as
Kingstowne begins annual inspections
of the community.
Annual Property Inspections and
Maintenance Benefit All Owners
The sun, wind, rain, and extreme
temperatures all contribute to wear
and tear of the home. In an effort to help
keep Kingstowne one of the most highly
valued and sought-after communities to
live in, the Kingstowne Residential Owners
Corporation conducts exterior property
maintenance inspections every year. These
inspections are set to begin in March and
will continue through November.
Do You See What We See?
Most Frequent Concerns
Kingstowne is a large community and the
inspection process occurs year-round–with
the majority occurring March-November.
Take steps now to plan and prepare for
home maintenance projects. A few of the
most frequent maintenance and repair
concerns Kingstowne residents face each
year are:
• Peeling Paint or Rotting Wood:
Windows, doors, rake boards, garages,
and house trim are prime targets for this
issue.

Recycle Increase Goal – 30 % Kingstowne’s current average is
10 lbs. per home per week. Our challenge is to recycle 13 lbs.
per week – or more!
You can recycle more by condensing your recyclables.
Crushing plastic bottles and soda cans will create more
space in the container and avoid unsightly items blowing
away on windy days. Placing lightweight, condensed items
on the bottom of the container will create more space

Features
March Winds
Winds really stir up in March. As a result, unwanted trash
viewed around the neighborhoods, streets, public areas, and
common areas are much more prevalent.
There are many ways in which to prevent your waste and
recycling from becoming part of the landscaping during this
time of year. Here are a few friendly tips on keeping the
community clean:
• Place a heavy object, such as a brick or heavy rock, on top
of your items if you are using the small 18-gallon recycling
bin.
• Bag loose recycling items, such as plastic bottles and cans.
• Consider using brown bags for small incidental items by
securing them in the container.
• Avoid white bags as they attract crows.
• Use string to tie magazines and newspapers together.
• Place your solid waste in sealed bags in case the lid on the
container blows open.
• Bring a plastic bag to pick up litter when walking the dog
or taking a stroll.
• Consider purchasing a large, locking trash container that
will keep the solid waste in place and prevent animals
from tearing open bags.
Crows are attracted to white bags.
Large, locking trash containers work best.
• If you see any large items such as furniture, appliances,
or tires in common areas, please call the business office
at 703-922-9477 so they may be removed.
Plan a cleanup day by gathering friends and neighbors
together. To get started, contact Clean Fairfax about their
“Community Clean Up Program.” Clean Fairfax offers
free supplies to encourage you to clean your community.
Supplies include 30-gallon litter bags, clear bags for
recyclables, safety vests, hats, safety tips, and other
supplies you may need. Please allow 10 business days to
get your order ready. For more information, contact their
office at 703-324-5471, or www.cleanfairfax.org for more
details and application.

New Fitness Equipment at the Snyder Center
Have you had the opportunity to try the
new fitness equipment at the Snyder
Center? If not, stop by soon. In midDecember there was a major overhaul to
the equipment that included replacing all
the strength equipment and adding a new
functional training component.
Selected With Input From You!
The new fitness equipment was selected
through the guidance of the Fitness Task
Force and from the results gathered in the
Snyder Fitness Center survey completed by
residents last summer.
One of the most frequent comments
received from the survey was the need for
additional space for workouts. The updated
circuit equipment provides additional
space with some units now including dual
functions. That also made room for the
new Synrgy360™ functional training unit
Fitness Task Force member Alan
Cleaver doing a single-arm row.
that adds several training possibilities
within its 4.2’ x 7.4’ footprint. This trending
equipment will make you want to continue
and succeed in your exercise regimen.
Contact Meg Cochran at recreation@
kingstowne.org with any questions.
Come in and experience the multifunctional
unit selected by a group of your peers in the
new, transformed Snyder Fitness Center.

Jeff C. McKay, Lee District Supervisor

Just before the calendar shifted to 2015, my Board of
Supervisors colleagues and I adopted the county’s first Bicycle
Master Plan, the newest addition to initiatives to make Fairfax
County bicycle friendly that the county Board began in 2006.
(As part of these initiatives, we have a county bicycle map and
a full-time staff position dedicated to bicycle coordination,
planning, and implementation.) The master plan calls for the
addition of 1,130 miles in on- and off-road bike routes across
the county, more than triple today’s 353 miles. Also included in
the plan are new facilities and additional bike racks, as well as
improvements to existing trails.
The plan is intended to meet the safety, access, and mobility
needs of bicyclists, encourage more people to bicycle, and to
make Fairfax County bicycle-friendly and safe. It encourages
bicycle use for transportation, especially for non-commuting

Last month an ad aired during the Super Bowl that caused a
lot of controversy. Run by Nationwide, the ad highlighted that
accidents are the leading cause of childhood deaths in the
United States. While many felt this ad was too depressing for
the Super Bowl, it caused families in homes across the country
to have a conversation about preventing accidental deaths.
Virginia loses a number of children every year to preventable
accidents. In 2013, 32% of deaths of children between the

trips, and it provides for tracking annual progress in reaching
the goals of bicycle travel demand and infrastructure.
In Lee District alone, the plan adds more than 25 miles
of bicycle lanes and nearly 10 miles of shared-use
paths. Although some of the new facilities called for in the
plan are many years in the future, some on-road lanes can be
created today by reconfiguring existing road markings and
the county has already begun that work. In fact, almost all of
the county’s existing on-road bike lanes were installed at no
cost to us through the Virginia Department of Transportation’s
annual repaving program.
You can view the entire plan at www.fairfaxcounty.gov/fcdot/
bike/county_bike_master_plan.htm and see the recommended
bikeway network map for Lee District. If you’d like a copy
of the county’s bicycle map, free copies are available from
a variety of locations around the county including local bike
shops, the information desk at the Fairfax County Government
Center, the Fairfax County Department of Transportation,
and, of course, my office. The map shows bike-friendly routes
connecting all of Fairfax County and identifies a network of
on- and off-road routes. There are more than 5,000 miles of
roadway and 700 miles of trails.
ages of 1 and 19 were accidental, and it was the leading cause
of death in every age group except 10-14, where cancer
narrowly outpaced accidents.
For these reasons, the General Assembly has made child
safety a priority for the 2015 legislative session. The
regulation of childcare providers has been one of the primary
focuses this year. Although there is no official count of how
many children have died in daycare, an investigation done by
the Washington Post found that between 2004 and 2014, 69
children died in childcare centers; 51 of those deaths were in
Virginia’s unregulated home daycares.
Currently, providers that care for no more than 5 children
are not licensed, nor subject to inspections, training
requirements, or name background checks; and state officials
do not track where the businesses are located. Virginia has
an estimated 200,000 children cared for in an unregulated
setting. This lack of oversight causes the Child Care Aware of
America, a national child resource group, to rank Virginia in
the bottom eight states nationwide.
To address this alarming situation, the General Assembly is
working on comprehensive legislation that would tighten
regulations on home daycare such as lowering the state
threshold for licensing and requiring fingerprint background
checks for licensed providers. I look forward to reporting
back to you on this and other measures considered during
the 2015 legislative session soon. If you have any suggestions
on this or other topics, please contact me at DelMSickles@

Report from
Senator Barker’s Office
George Barker, Senator, 39th District
Local 703-303-1426; Richmond 804-698-1734
[email protected]
The Virginia Constitution explicitly states that state legislative
and U.S. Congressional districts are to be redrawn in 2011 and
every ten years thereafter. We are not allowed to redraw the
districts other than in years ending in “1,” although that doesn’t
stop some from trying.
Although redistricting will not occur again until 2021 (after we
get the 2020 census data), this week we began the discussion
about how we will do it. Currently, Virginia lines are drawn
by the Virginia General Assembly. The only requirements
for redistricting are that the districts are to be compact and
contiguous (no gaps between parts of a district), the plan
comply with the Voting Rights Act, and the plan be signed by
the governor.
One of the major concerns when it comes to redistricting is
whether the lines are drawn to favor one political party over
another. In 2011, when the Senate district lines were redrawn,
they were balanced. The House of Delegates districts and the
Congressional districts, however, were drawn to be largely
Republican leaning, with about two-thirds of each more
Republican than the state as a whole.

I want our legislative districts to be close and competitive
rather than one-sided for one party or the other. This is why
I presented a constitutional amendment that proposed
districts which were split equally between those that are more
Republican than Virginia and those that are more Democratic
and an attempt to have as many competitive districts as
practicable.
One of the things I love about my district, which includes parts
of Prince William, Alexandria, and Fairfax, is that it gives me a
broader perspective and makes me more balanced by providing
me diverse perspectives and different issues and priorities from
the constituents in three different jurisdictions and from the
local governing bodies and school boards in three localities.

This year is bittersweet for me as it will be my last session as a
senator. It has been an honor to serve the people of the 36th
district of Virginia and I hope to finish strong in this, my 24th
year.
One of the things I will miss is being able to help Gunston Hall.
I have enjoyed being liaison between the commonwealth and
the Colonial Dames, who are the caretakers of the house, and
the staff. This year Del. Dave Albo and I have
a commending resolution to declare 2016
the Year of George Mason and the Virginia
Declaration of Rights. The year 2016 will be
the 240th anniversary of Mason writing that
historic document.

Much of my legislation this year relates
to veterans and making Virginia the most
veteran-friendly state in the country. I am
pleased to be working with other senators and
delegates on these bills in a truly bipartisan
fashion. Politics should always stop at the
water’s edge when it comes to those brave
men and women who voluntarily sign up for
military duty to protect and serve our nation.
I would like to highlight two pieces of
legislation I have been working on. The bills to
secure funding for the Veteran Care Centers in
Northern Virginia and Hampton Roads (SB675,
SB676) have passed the Senate and will go to
the House on February 10. These Veteran Care
Centers [VCC] will fill a critical need for our
aging veterans. Currently there are two VCCs,
in Richmond and Roanoke. They provide
short-term rehabilitative services as well as
long-term nursing home care.
I am also the patron of SB 903, which will
allow courts to create a specific docket for
veterans who end up in the court system,
for the express purpose of giving targeted
attention to veterans. The goal is to move
these offenders out of the court system and
into productive lives in the community.
As always, I am honored to represent the 36th
senatorial district of Virginia. Anyone with an
issue or concern should contact my office in
Richmond at [email protected]
or by phone: 804-698-7536.
