Leesburg council adopts site‑plan review process improvements; staff to report quarterly
Summary
The Town Council approved changes to the site plan review process and requested regular updates from Community Development, with staff agreeing to quarterly informational reports.
The Leesburg Town Council on May 11 approved changes to the town’s site plan review process and asked staff to provide ongoing status updates. Councilmember David Cummings requested that Community Development report back on progress every 90 days or quarterly; staff agreed to return with informational memos at that cadence.
Council debated whether those updates should be formal presentations or memo items. Mr. David (Community Development) confirmed staff would provide quarterly informational memos and indicated staff would request a work session if a substantive issue required further council discussion.
Following a motion to adopt the site plan review process improvements (with the quarterly reporting amendment), the council voted to approve the item. The approval included the addition that staff provide regular updates on implementation progress so council remains engaged with the improvements.
What it means: The council expects an ongoing reporting schedule to monitor implementation of the site plan review improvements. Staff will provide quarterly information memos; staff said a work session can be scheduled if more in‑depth discussion is needed.
