Brick Entrance Signs Project Plan

The repair of our three 40+ year old Hayfield Farm Entrance signs is pending General Membership approval at this month’s General Membership meeting on April 18, 2018. This repair, once authorized, is expected to take several days from start to finish at an estimated cost of between $3,850 and $5000. This 11-page project plan includes detailed information. The repairs include tree removal, power washing, brick replacement, re-mortaring and capping with flagstone. Capping will protect the signs from future weather damage.

The HCA Board unanimously recommends approval of this project. Please attend the April 18 meeting (7:30pm at Hayfield Elementary School) to discuss this project and to vote on it.

Hike/Bike Path Update 3/12/18

Good news about the Hike/Bike path bridge installation just arrived!  Recall that the path has been repaved but the bridge at the U.S. Coast Guard station is being replaced. Here is what Marcus Wadsworth at Supervisor McKay’s office sent me today:
The bridge construction will take place later this month. The section of the trail being closed is between Helmsdale Lane and Dunsmore Road. The contractor will start March 19th and weather permitting, the project will take forty-five days.
This is great news; bridge installation will complete the renewal (repaving) of the Hike/Bike path from Helmsdale Road to just short of the Exxon gas station. New sidewalk extends to the gas station. I know that our Hayfield Citizens Association, indeed all of Hayfield Farm and the neighboring communities, are all grateful to Supervisor McKay for supporting this project and to Marcus Wadsworth who has tracked progress over the past year or so.

However, much of the information is relevant, timely and important for all homeowners in Hayfield Farm. Thus I have put together a summary of the relevant information for you.

LDACO and Embark Richmond Highway Update

LDACO Chair Chris Soule spoke at our February 21, 2018 HCA meeting. LDACO (http://www.ldacova.org) is our Lee District Association of Civic Organizations. It is the umbrella organization for all the civic and homeowners associations in Lee District within Fairfax County, Virginia. LDACO serves as a local forum for the Lee District section of Fairfax County, just as the Fairfax County Federation of Civic Associations represents the civic associations of the entire county.

Chris introduced both Robert Pikora (Robert.Pikora@fairfaxcounty.gov), Senior Transportation Planner III and JoAnne Fiebe (joanne.fiebe@fairfaxcounty.gov), Revitalization Program Manager, who together provided information about Embark Richmond Highway. Embark is an initiative focused on creating a multimodal future for the Richmond Highway Corridor (Route 1) where residents, workers, and visitors can walk, bike, or drive to the places they want to go. For details see the home page, https://www.fairfaxcounty.gov/planning-zoning/embark-richmond-highway; see the interactive map at that web site by clicking on “Interactive Map.” The project extends along Route 1 from the 495 beltway to Fort Belvoir. Plans include widening Richmond Highway from four to six lanes from Jeff Todd Way north to Napper Road.
