Summary

At its March 18 meeting the Reston Design Review Board approved the South Lakes STEAM sculpture (5-0) and deferred two appeals (applications G and H) for lack of quorum; the board also deferred the Leatherwood Drive landscape plan with conditions (5-0).

The Reston Design Review Board recorded the following formal outcomes on March 18:

- South Lakes High School STEAM team sculpture (Application F): Approved 5-0. The board asked the students to provide final color, spacing and attachment details to staff for the record.

- Application G (appeal): Deferred to the next full board meeting because there were not enough members present without conflicts to make a final decision; motion to defer passed 5-0.

- Application H (appeal): Deferred to the next full board meeting for the same quorum/conflict reasons; motion to defer passed 5-0.

- 11229 Leatherwood Drive (Application I): Deferred 5-0. The board asked the applicant to work with Meadow Farms (vendor) and Reston Master Gardeners and submit a legible revised planting plan showing species, spacing and installation notes.

All formal board votes recorded at that meeting were unanimous among the five members present; in several cases the board directed applicants to submit additional documentation to staff rather than returning the item for another full hearing unless the revised plan materially changes the scope.
