With air traffic at Washington Dulles International Airport declining as dominant carrier United scales back and other carriers move service to Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport, officials with the Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority are looking for alternate ways to boost the stability at Dulles. “The bottom line is not all the land is being productively used today,” airports authority CEO Jack Potter said at a recent meeting of the Northern Virginia Regional Commission. “We are going to work to see if we can continue to grow non-aviation revenue, starting with land.” The future of that underused property is important to the fiscal health of Dulles because, Potter said, “whenever we make a dollar in a non-aviation act, it goes right to the bottom line to help the aviation program.” In recent times – with the demise of Independence Air in 2006 coupled with the onset of recession two years later – domestic passenger activity at Dulles Airport has fallen, dropping from 18.8 million in 2007 to 15 million in 2013. International passenger counts have continued to grow at Dulles Airport, but Potter

said the domestic travel continues to be a concern. Growth at Arlington-based Reagan National, also run by the airports authority, has come largely at the expense of Dulles. While National is slot-restricted, airlines are using larger aircraft to capture inner-core travelers who may not want to venture to Dulles or to Baltimore-Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport. While a decade ago Dulles saw almost 5 million more enplanements than National, in 2014 their numbers were within 100,000 of each other. National is expected to surpass Dulles in enplanements from this point forward. But the compact, landlocked airport, with only about 800 acres, is not primed for that increase in use. “The infrastructure at Reagan is going to have to change,” Potter said. Conversely, with its 12,000 acres, Dulles Airport has the capacity now to handle 40 million passengers a year, but only has about half that total passing through its doors. “For a whole host of reasons why. it makes sense to try and put the breaks on the growth at Reagan and really focus on growth at Dulles,” Potter said.

The Fairfax County Park Authority held a ceremony June 7 in the Giles Run Meadow section of Laurel Hill Park in Lorton to rename the Cross County Trail after U.S. Rep. Gerald Connolly (D-11th). County officials invited the public to attend the ceremony at Laurel Hill Park, located at 8400 Lorton Road. Patches featuring the trail’s new name will be available for free in limited quantities. The 41.5-mile trail connects communities from the Potomac River in the north to the Occoquan River in the south, and is popular with hikers, cyclists, and equestrian enthusiasts. During his tenure as chairman of the Board of Supervisors, Connolly championed the trail’s creation and worked closely with advocacy groups to plan the route and overcome obstacles, park officials said. The Park Authority Board voted unanimously in June 2013 to change the trail’s name to the Gerry Connolly Cross County Trail. “Mr. Connolly has demonstrated a steadfast resolve to preserve parkland and create recreational facilities in this community throughout his many years of public service,” said Park Authority Board Chairman Bill Bouie. “He is a strong advocate for environmental stewardship and we are so very pleased to name this trail in his honor. He is a deserving recipient of this acknowledgment.” In a media statement accompanying the ceremony’s announcement, Connolly said he shared the honor with a lot of people. “This project is a true example of what can happen when the local community, volunteers and our elected officials work together,” Connolly’s statement read. “Thanks to that effort, we are leaving behind a real gem for future generations to enjoy.” Fairfax Trails and Streams presented the Park Authority in May 1999 with the idea for a cross-county trail. The proposed route linked existing Park Authority trails together with other public lands owned by the National Park Service, Northern Virginia Regional Park Authority, city of Fairfax and Reston. Public sidewalks through each supervisory district in Fairfax County also helped to form a continuous pedestrian route from Great Falls National Park to Occoquan Regional Park. In the course of the next several years, the Park Authority assembled existing trail sections and rights-of-way to connect longer trail lengths while refining alternatives for missing sections. Then-Chairman Connolly supported the Park Authority’s efforts to acquire necessary links to complete the entire route. One of the last significant sections of trail to be acquired was the Laurel Hill Greenway, a portion of the former Lorton Prison located on the rail bed used to transport goods within the prison property. Fairfax County acquired the Lorton property from the federal government under the leadership of Connolly, who supported the amendment of the county’s comprehensive plan to protect most of Lorton as parkland. This action allowed Cross County Trail

ViVa! Vienna! Always Brings Out a Fun Crowd Sunshine smiled all weekend at this spring’s ViVa! Vienna! festival, held May 24 through 26 in central Vienna. Thousands of area residents flocked to

the event to sample tasty cuisine, get their hearts pumping on exciting carnival rides, try their skill at games, listen to music and peruse vendors’ wares.

The weather, which in years past sometimes proved sweltering or rain-soaked, stayed sunny and balmy. Crowds of visitors thus were able to enjoy the savory smells,

squeals of delight and family friendly fun that mark one of the town’s signature events. – Brian Trompeter

Foundation Plants Trees to Honor Late McLean Resident

Sun Gazette

During a recent workday, McLean Trees Foundation volunteers planted two native Fringtrees and one American Hornbeam tree along Chain Bridge Road in Lewinsville Park in memory of late McLean resident Joyce Crandall. Donations, including money from the McLean Citizens Association (MCA), financed the trees’ purchase and planting. The trees mark Lewinsville Park’s entrance and enhance the natural gateway to McLean’s business and residential communities, foundation officials said. The foundation is honored to help keep Crandall’s memory alive, said Joyce Harris, the group’s board chairman. “The Fringetree has fragrant,

white, fleecy flowers in the spring and the American Hornbeam tree is noted for its strong wood,” Harris said. “The trees will improve our environment, bring joy to the entire McLean community and serve as living memorials to Mrs. Crandall.” Foundation officials encourage local residents to support the group’s tree-sponsorship program. The foundation incorporates sponsored trees into its annual planting program at sites slated to receive the organization’s trees in the spring and fall. Residents who contribute at least $500 can have people, pets, anniversaries, birthdays and other events recognized through the sponsored-tree program. The foundation’s Web site proj-

ect map shows the locations of trees and their honorees. Donors receive commemorative cards indicating the types and locations of their sponsored trees. Tree sponsorships are an excellent way of honoring people, celebrating events and supporting community beautification, said Frank Crandall, co-chairman of MCA’s Environment, Parks and Recreation Committee. “I am pleased that we could honor my late wife, Joyce, in this manner and that the trees will help restore our urban forest in McLean,” Crandall said. For more information about the foundation’s tree-sponsorship program, visit www.mcleantreesfoundation.org. – Brian Trompeter

Sally Horn, Kathryn Crandall, Frank Crandall, Merrily Pierce, Jane Edmondson, Mark Zetts and Sue King celebrate the McLean Trees Foundation’s recent plantings of three trees at the entrance of Lewinsville Park in honor of the late Joyce Crandall.

Opinion Our View: A Break, Then the General Election Tuesday’s Democratic primary in the 8th Congressional District sets the stage for election season, which we hope against hope will be a seriousminded discussion of key issues. (For the record, this is being written before the outcome of the June 10 primary is known; the punditocracy has anointed Don Beyer the likely winner, but we will not assume a victor in advance.) Congressional races in the 8th and 11th districts are unlikely to be competitive; Democrats in each district hold a distinct advantage. Yet the Republican challengers can do their party and the districts’ constituencies a favor by running sober, issues-driven campaigns that show they are somewhat in touch with the districts they aspire to represent. (As for third-party candidates who seem to pop up like kudzu to make congressional runs, we’ll give each of you one chance to prove you

have some gravitas. Fail the test, and we will ignore you mercilessly – taking away your one key desire, for publicity – for the remainder of election season.) As has been written here before, we are hopeful that the only competitive race in the region, the 10th District showdown between Republican Barbara Comstock and Democrat John Foust, will prove to be a paragon of high-quality politics, with a vigorous discussion of the issues. Both Comstock and Foust are seasoned, serious political leaders who have proved their worth in the district, so our hope may actually come to pass. That said, we fear the influence of outside money could work to turn the 10th District campaign into a circus. National Democrats, in particular, seem eager to funnel as much campaign cash as necessary to pick up a seat they haven’t held since Jimmy Carter was in

the White House, and their efforts are likely to dilute the seriousness of Foust to focus on painting Comstock as an extremist. That would be an unfair analogy, although Comstock has voted with the pathologically hard-right of the GOP at times when she might have been smarter to have toed a more middleof-the-road approach. But then again, you can’t run in the general election unless you win the party’s nomination, and Comstock presumably had to burnish her right-wing bona fides in order to survive a GOP primary that at times seemed populated by one candidate nuttier than the next. Our view? Let’s all enjoy summer and tune out the three local congressional races until after Labor Day. Have fun at cookouts, on vacation, on staycation, at ball games, in the pool . . . but ignore the politicking, and the politicians, until September. Agreed?

New Report Looks at Future of Schools in Roman Catholic Diocese of Arlington DAVE BOROWSKI Arlington Catholic Herald

The Arlington diocesan Office of Catholic Schools has publicly released a 2013 report on the viability of diocesan elementary, middle and high schools. The report, prepared by Office of Catholic Schools staff using data received from the schools, took several months to complete, and was first delivered to principals and pastors at a meeting in February. It will be used for planning purposes. In the preface to the report, Sister Bernadette McManigal, superintendent of schools for the diocese, said that you cannot know where you are going until you know where you are. “Analysis of academic programs, enrollment trends, pipeline information, financial controls and overall school health form the foundation or ‘coordinates’ necessary in planning for the future,” McManigal wrote. She said that, without planning and analysis, the schools would be relegated to crisis management. “History has shown that Catholic schools are an effective tool for evangelization,” McManigal said. “To be that tool, the schools must be vibrant and stable.” The Arlington Diocese has nearly 18,000 students in 38 parish elementary schools, two interparish schools, two pri-

vate elementary/middle schools, four diocesan high schools and two private high schools. The report tracks trends from the 200405 school year to the beginning of the 2013-14 school year. The 2008 recession affected enrollment for most schools, but there has been modest growth over the past two years. As of October 2012, the total number of students in diocesan schools had grown by 58 from the previous year. The total number of students in diocesan schools increased by only 23 by October 2013. Twenty-one schools had increased enrollment in 2013 and 20 the previous year. There are challenges, however. Seventeen schools experienced decreased enrollment in 2013 and 18 the previous year. The report also identified a need for consistent third-source revenue streams in addition to tuition and parish support. To help boost enrollment, the Office of Catholic Schools now requires each school to form an enrollment-management team to provide long-term strategies. Additionally, the Discover Catholic Schools Week effort, now in its sixth year, has seen an increase in attendance by prospective families at school open houses. Data for the report was gathered from the 2010 U.S. census, 2012-13 Design for Excellence reports that are filed by the elementary schools each year, and 2013-14

enrollment information came from the National Catholic Education Association State of Schools report. Schools were compared to benchmarks that included: average standardized-test scores that exceed the national average; an enrollment of at least 200 students; enrollment declines no greater than 5 percent annually or 20 percent over five years; 100 percent of salaries and benefits covered by tuition; and successful completion of an appropriate accreditation process. McManigal sees this kind of viability reporting as essential to a successful school. “Each year as the report is updated, it will provide a reference for where we have been, where we are, and how we can all plan for the future of Catholic education,” she said. In a statement prepared for the report, Arlington Bishop Paul Loverde wrote: “In a word, the Catholic School is the finest herald and the strongest protagonist for the New Evangelization.” © 2014 Arlington Catholic Herald.

for others, no matter the cost. This is what you were born for.” Among those in the Class of 2014 is Gianna Ridout – an Acorn headed to the University of Virginia – who becomes one of a small but growing list of second-generation alumna. Her mother, Lia Ridout, graduated in 1985. Members of the Class of 2014 left the school a gift, a new school song with lyrics by Buono and music by her students Mary Beth Beatty, Andy Esmond, Madie Kilner, Laura Spence and Cathryn Treco and Mrs. Ann Miller. Their effort was emblematic of the student body’s verve, said Head of School Mary Ortiz. “Oakcrest is life at full tilt every day,” she said, urging students to maintain their moral integrity, imagination and courage as they move out in the world. “You will each do it in your own way and in your own style – we will cheer you on,” Ortiz said. The school’s chaplain, Father Gerry Kolf, asked that the young people be looked after from above. “Help them fall in love with life, so they can always see the adventure in front of them,” he said in his invocation. “Let them use every moment of their life generously.”

“Feisty and independent” is the way Oakcrest School salutatorian Alex Aguilar describes the 28 members of the Class of 2014, who were honored at commencement ceremonies held at the McLean school on June 7. “Everyone in our class is really confident,” said Aguilar, a McLean resident who qualifies as an “Acorn” (a student at Oakcrest since sixth grade). She is headed to Stanford University in the fall after considering options ranging from CalTech to MIT. The leap from a small, all-girls school to a large, co-ed institution of higher education may seem like a big one, but for Aguilar and class valedictorian Sophia Buono, who departs for the University of Notre Dame this fall, it is something to be taken in stride. Oakcrest gives students the chance to develop in a protective bubble but provides the tools needed to “prepare you to go out into the big world,” said Buono, an Arlington resident who in addition to being valedictorian also was named student of the year. As for being in an all-girls school? “It was a total plus,” said Buono, who spent four years at the independent school, which has a Catholic-based tradition that spans nearly four decades. “Boys in school can be an element of distraction,” Buono said as she prepared to join classmates in commencement exercises. (The school has relationships with other schools that provides interaction with boys and girls, Buono said, and she has four brothers.) In an all-girls setting, “We can challenge each other intellectually,” Aguilar said. “I’m definitely happy with the experience.” Commencement speaker Dr. Catherine Pakaluk, a 1994 Oakcrest graduate, said the school’s Catholic underpinnings would serve its students well in the future. “Virtue is the essence of a heroic life,” said Pakaluk, a professor at Ave Maria Universty in Florida. “We live in a frivolous time. It’s hard to live well, but it has to be tried. You weren’t born a finished product; it’s while you’re young you must choose the path.” “You can’t be a hero all by yourself,” Pakaluk told the graduating seniors. “Live

Cardinal employees assist the students with banking transactions and oversee operations at the deposit-only bank. “This is a wonderful opportunity to educate students about money management and good savings skills,” said F. Kevin Reynolds, the president of Cardinal Bank. The Oakton operation joins a growing list of student-run banks supported by Cardinal Bank in Fairfax, Prince William and Loudoun elementary and middle schools. “Our school partnerships provide a workplace experience for students to learn skills in leadership, marketing and serving others,” Reynolds said. “These partnerships lay the groundwork for long-term financial relationships, and help teach our young customers real-life business values that will give them a great foundation for the future.” NVCC SELECTED TO PARTICIPATE IN NATIONAL JOBS INITIATIVE: Northern

Fairfax County Public Schools expects to net more than $73 million in savings over a 10-year period as part of an energy-conservation initiative that began in February. Specialists from the energy firm Cenergistic are conducting energy audits to “ensure that students and teachers are comfortable during class time and scheduled activities, and that energy is used only as necessary,” county officials said in a statement. This contract with Cenergistic “is another step towards finding cost savings in as many places as possible,” Superintendent Karen Garza said in a statement. “We are encouraged to be able to find significant energy and financial savings from a tried-and-true program like this one,” Garza said. “Every dollar we save on energy is a dollar we can use for educational purposes.” Costs of the program come from the system’s existing utility budget, with savings projected to more than pay for it.

Animal Shelter has reduced adoption fees for cats and kittens to $10 for the month of June as part of its annual ExtravaCATza celebration. “The shelter usually has about 35 to 45 available cats and kittens of all ages, sizes and personalities,” shelter officials said. “June is typically the month the most homeless cats come into the shelter, so adopting a cat during this time means that adopters are getting a new best friend and are also saving a life.” The low-cost adoption fee is made possible by support from the Friends of the Fairfax County Animal Shelter. For information about the shelter, ani-

tion is now publishing patient-satisfaction ratings for commonwealth hospitals on its Web site, www.vhi.org. “When consumers choose a hospital, they want to know they’ll be treated well and their needs will be met,” said Michael Lundberg, executive director of the Richmond-based nonprofit organization. The Web site uses survey information from Hospital Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems collected from July 2012 to June 2013 and released in April 2014. The information was obtained from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, and is available for 79 health-care facilities in Virginia. Among hospitals in the Sun Gazette coverage area, the highest overall patient satisfaction was at Virginia Hospital Center, where 82 percent of all respondents gave the facility a rating of 9 or 10 on a 1-to-10 scale. That compares to a state average of 68 percent and a national average of 70 percent. Among other local hospitals, 9s or 10s were given to Inova Fair Oaks Hospital by 73 percent of patients; to Inova Mount Vernon Hospital by 71 percent of patients; to Reston Hospital Center by 66 percent of patients; to Inova Fairfax Hospital by 65 percent of patients; to Inova Alexandria Hospital by 63 percent of patients; and to Senatra Northern Virginia Medical Center by 60 percent of patients. Asked if they would “definitely recommend” the hospital, 86 percent of Virginia Hospital Center patients said yes, followed by Inova Fair Oaks Hospital (79 percent), Inova Fairfax Hospital (75 percent), Inova Mount Vernon Hospital (72 percent), Reston Hospital Center (71 percent), Inova Alexandria Hospital (67 percent) and Sentara Northern Virginia Medical Center (66 percent). The state average was 69 percent and the national average was 71 percent. The site also provides feedback on how patients rated doctors, nurses and staff on how they communicated, and on whether rooms were kept quiet. ENDEPENDENCE CENTER TO PRESENT LIFETIME-ACHIEVEMENT HONORS: The

ENDependence Center of Northern Virginia will honor Nancy Starnes and Frank O’Leary with lifetime-achievement awards at a celebration slated for June 11 at Clarendon Ballroom. In addition to honoring the two former board members, the organization also will salute Michael & Son for its pro-bono work assisting people with disabilities in repairing their homes. The event will be held at 6:30 p.m.; the Clarendon Ballroom is located at 3185 Wilson Blvd. Tickets are $50, with sponsorship packages available. For tickets and information, see the Web site at www.ecnv.org. EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF ‘FACETS’

Continued on Page 11

Fairfax County Notes MOVING ON: The executive director of

FACETS – a nonprofit that provides support to those impacted by poverty in Fairfax County – has announced plans to step down at the end of June. Amanda Andere will move on to head up Wider Opportunities for Women, a national, D.C.-based nonprofit focused on bringing wealth equality to women, their children and elders. “We are sad to be losing Amanda, but know that the enthusiasm, passion and commitment to excellence that she brought to FACETS will benefit our clients and many more across the nation in new and profound ways,” said John Martin, who chairs the FACETS board. “Under her leadership, FACETS has grown tremendously in its ability to serve our community and lead. We are on a great path, and appreciate her real and important contributions to alleviating poverty in Fairfax County.” Andere has served with the organization for five years. “FACETS’ work is not done, but I know that FACETS’ great board, partners and staff have the will and momentum needed to end homelessness in the county,” she said. “I look forward to applying what I’ve learned at FACETS to help people nationwide build pathways to economic security and equality.” Andere is credited with helping FACETS to meet the needs of people who are homeless, precariously housed or suffering the effects of poverty in a more efficient and effective manner. She was instrumental in starting the 100,000 Homes Fairfax: A Home for All Campaign, in which FACETS joined other local nonprofits in identifying more than 400 people who are chronically homeless, and started moving these individuals off the streets and into their own apartments. To find its next executive director, the FACETS board has formed a search committee chaired by Sally Sibley, and will employ a search firm. During the process, Maura Williams, the current deputy director, will serve as interim executive director. For information on the organization, see the Web site at www.facetscares.org.

circle for young professionals at the Community Foundation for Northern Virginia, raised approximately $52,000 at its annual awards gala, held May 16. The event honored the fund’s two grantwinning organizations for 2014, Linden Resources and Quality of Life Foundation. Each organization received grants of $20,000 to support veterans and their families. The organization has raised more than $200,000 since its inception in 2010. “My membership in the Future Fund is valuable not only because of the personal benefits I receive, but also because of the positive impact we make in the community,” said Marcy Johnson of Grant Thornton LLP, co-chair of the initiative. “I am a better person at home, at work and in my community thanks to the Future Fund.” To view photos from the event, see the Web site at www.cfnova.org/ffgala.

questions about its economic and political viability, the Fairfax and Arlington county governments are moving forward on the Columbia Pike streetcar project. The two counties have approved the hiring of Parsons Transportation Group to help manage construction of the streetcar system. “This is a major step forward,” Arlington County Board Chairman Jay Fisette (D) said on May 29. Initial work includes $7 million to $8 million of services, officials said. Funding will come from revenue brought in by local and state transportation taxes. The proposed Columbia Pike streetcar would run five miles from Pentagon City west to Baileys Crossroads. Arlington will pay about 80 percent of the local cost, with Fairfax County picking up the rest.

Board of Supervisors Chairman Sharon Bulova (D) said the proposed streetcar line would help spur redevelopment in the Baileys Crossroads and Skyline corridors. “This area was once meant to be served by the Metro system, and the streetcar will deliver on this vision of transit-oriented development,” Bulova said, calling the project “an enormous revitalization and economic-development opportunity for this area of the county.” Cost projections now top $350 million for the project, and a backlash has built in Arlington over the cost. A number of elected officials and candidates have called for a voter referendum on the issue, and the Democratic candidate in a County Board special election was defeated in April largely over public concerns about big-ticket spending in Arlington. Two of five Arlington County Board members oppose the project, as do a number of Fairfax supervisors.

Looking to buy or sell,

Vienna’s deteriorating tree canopy, the Town Council approved new Town Code provisions to adopt minimum tree-canopycoverage requirements for single-lot development and redevelopment. The new requirements went into effect May 22. Under the new provisions, single-lot development and redevelopment activity will be subject to the same requirements as new subdivisions. Both will be required to have 20-percent lot coverage of trees within 20 years. The focus of the change is to require new plantings to replace trees removed due to redevelopment and also to provide guidance for tree preservation, town officials said. “This change was started by citizens who were concerned about a disconcerting trend in the town,” said Susan Stillman, chairman of the town’s Community Enhancement Commission (CEC). “Their persistence, and the diligence of CEC volunteers, have changed our town for the better.” For additional information on the changes, contact the town’s public-information office at (703) 255-6330 or e-mail pio@viennava.gov.

Public-Safety Notes 2 ARRESTED IN CONNECTION WITH EXPLOSIONS AT TYSONS MOVIE COMPLEX: Fairfax County authorities recently

charged two men on multiple felony counts in connection with improvised-explosivedevice detonations on two days last month at Tysons Corner Center AMC Theaters. Authorities on June 1 charged Manuel Joyner, 20, of Bowie, Md., in connection with the cases and on June 8 arrested Michael Hollingsworth, 23, for the same incidents. Officials did not list an address for Hollingsworth. Both men face three counts each of creating, possessing or using a bomb/explosive; arson of an occupied public building; and using or selling weapons/devices for a terrorist act. Fairfax County police dispatched officers to the theater complex shortly after midnight May 18 after receiving a report of suspicious “popping noises.” Officials and theater employees quickly determined that the noises were not gunfire, but were the result of detonations of two soda-bottle “chemical” devices. No one was injured during the incident, police said. The devices were located near the entrances of two of the movie complex’s 16 theaters. Police evacuated all 16 theaters and the mall’s food court so officials could ensure there were no additional devices in the area. County police also dispatched officers to the same cinema complex at around 2 a.m. on May 25 following a similar explosion. In all the cases, the explosions resulted from “various chemicals” placed in soda bottles, said Dan Schmidt, a Fairfax County Fire and Rescue Department spokesman. The cases resulted in a joint investigation by the FBI, Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives; Fairfax County and Anne Arundel County, Md., police and fire officials; fire marshals from Montgomery County, Md., and the city of Alexandria; and other local police departments. Prince George’s County, Md., authorities have arrested both men on similar charges and are holding them in the Prince George’s County Adult Detention Center.

SINGLE-VEHICLE CRASH CLAIMS LIFE OF WOMAN NEAR VIENNA: An 80-year-

Sun Gazette

old Potomac, Md., woman died on May 29 from injuries sustained in a single-vehicle crash near Vienna two days earlier, Fairfax County police said. At 2:08 p.m. on May 27, officers were called for a report of crash in the area of Towlston Road and Shouse Drive. According to police, the driver – Mary Eckert – was traveling north on Towlston Road in a 2002 Lexus RX200 when she ran off the right side of the road, striking a tree. Eckert was transported to a local hospital, where she was pronounced dead on May 29. Speed and alcohol were not factors in the crash, police said. CHECK ON MAN’S WELFARE DETERMINES HE IS DECEASED: Vienna Police

were contacted by a local resident the morn-

ing of June 3, who asked that they check on the welfare of his girlfriend’s brother. They were concerned for his well-being, and were unable to make contact with him. Two officers responded to the Vienna Wolf Trap Hotel and found a male unresponsive in his room. Officers performed CPR until county rescue personnel arrived, but could not resuscitate the individual. The case is being investigated. DOMESTIC DISPUTE BRINGS POLICE OUT FOUR TIMES IN 24 HOURS: On

May 31 at 7:27 p.m., police responded to Melody Lane, S.W., in Vienna, when a resident advised them her adult son and his boyfriend were in a physical altercation. When the mother attempted to break up the confrontation, she was inadvertently struck in the face by the boyfriend. Vienna police spoke with the involved individuals, and suggested that they find separate accommodations for the evening to allow for a cooling-off period. The participants refused to leave, but told the officer they would cease their arguing. Medical personnel responded to the incident, but the injured woman declined treatment. Several hours later, the woman reported to police that her son had been destroying property and had been in another physical altercation with his boyfriend. The responding officer instructed the boyfriend of warrant pursue, and the individual requested to be taken to the magistrate’s office to press charges. The magistrate declined to issue an assault charge, but did issue an emergency protective order against the woman’s son. The officer attempted to issue the protective order, but the son already had left the house. Several hours later, at around 2:54 a.m. on June 1, Vienna police responded to Melody Lane, S.W., for a report of a trespassing. Two officers searched the area and found an individual of matching the description of the person reported trespassing. Upon speaking with the individual, police said they determined he was intoxicated. The suspect, a 27-year-old Vienna man, was arrested, charged with drunk in public and trespassing, and was held until sober. At 3 p.m. that same day, a resident of the home called police to say the suspect was back in the home in violation of the protective order. The 27-year-old Vienna man was arrested for a second time that day, was transported to the Fairfax County Adult Detention Center, and was held on a $2,000 bond. TYKE IS REUNITED WITH BIKE: Town of

Vienna police have reunited an elementaryschool student with her bike. The victim’s father reported to police that his daughter had left her bicycle on a rack in front of Vienna Elementary School in late May, and when they went back several days later to retrieve it, the bike was gone. On May 27, a Vienna officer took a report of a bicycle that had been found in the 100 block of Maple Avenue, W. The bicycle matched the description of the other bike, and upon proof of ownership, was released to its owner.

DUO PICKED UP IN SERIES OF VIENNA LARCENIES: A Vienna resident reported

to police on May 25 at 4:25 p.m. that, as she was leaving her home in the 400 block of Talahi Road, S.E., to go for a bike ride, she noticed a man rummaging through her vehicle and a woman standing near it as it was parked in an open garage. The victim told police that when the individuals saw her approaching, they fled from the garage with a bag of oranges. The resident gave chase on her bicycle, was able to catch up with them, and persuaded them to return to her home to speak with responding officers. Upon returning, the resident discovered a bicycle that did not belong to her lying next to her vehicle. Responding police determined that the couple – a 19-year-old Vienna man and an 18-year-old Centreville woman – had entered several vehicles and stolen property. The two were transported to the Fairfax County Adult Detention Center and charged with various infractions, including vehicle tampering, possession of stolen property and underage possession of alcohol. The woman was released on her signature, while the male suspect was held without bond. VIENNA POLICE SORT OUT HIT-ANDRUN: Vienna police officers were respond-

ing to a report of a suspicious vehicle in the 500 block of Tapawingo Road, S.W., on May 23 at 12:18 a.m. when they were dispatched to a hit-and-run involving a vehicle that matched the description of the suspicious vehicle. The officers located a vehicle with damage, matching the description of the striking vehicle, in front of a home in the 100 block of Tapawingo. According to police, a resident acknowledged striking another vehicle, then leaving the scene. A 22-year-old Vienna woman was arrested, charged with hit-and-run and reckless driving, then released on her signature and transported home. MARIJUANA-LADEN TEENS MISTAKE HOUSE FOR PARTY ZONE: Three juve-

niles found themselves in hot water with the Vienna police after a resident of the 200 block of Moore Ave., S.E., alerted authorities on May 24 at 11:22 p.m. that there were several people trying to get into her house, in the mistaken belief a party was occurring there.

A responding police officer noticed several males walking from the side of the house and getting into vehicles. The officer detected the odor of marijuana coming from the vehicle, then located “a measurable amount” of marijuana and a smoking device on one of the juveniles, along with additional marijuana in the car. The juveniles were released to the custody of their parents or other adult relatives. The case continues to be investigated. ALLEGED POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE DRAWS WRITTEN REBUKE: An employee

of the Pennywise Thrift Store in Vienna reported May 23 that the business received a note complaining of poor customer service. While “nothing in the note appeared to be threatening,” Vienna police advised the employee to notify the department if anything else arrived. SUSPENDED STUDENTS LIKELY FACING MORE PROBLEMS: Two students

already on in-school suspension at Cedar Lane School in Vienna were involved in a fight on May 23 at 1:40 p.m., Vienna police said. The two students had been arguing when one attacked the other. One of the students then began walking around the hallways, punching lockers, and injured his hand in the process. The students were released to their mothers. VIENNA INN PATRON ASKED TO NOT COME BACK: Apparently, there’s such a

thing as having too much love for the iconic Vienna Inn. Staff of the restaurant contacted Vienna police on May 23 at 7:45 p.m. to ask for assistance in removing a patron who refused to leave. An officer arrived and informed the customer that she was to leave the establishment and not return. VETERINARY CENTER DEALS WITH RASH OF BITES: An employee of the

Hope Center in Vienna reported that a dog bit her while she was attempting a medical procedure on May 21. According to Vienna police, the dog was slated to be quarantined at the facility until being released to its owner, who lives in Arlington. The case then will be followed up by the Animal Welfare League of Arlington. Three days later, an employee at the center reported that she was bitten by a cat while attempting to perform a medical procedure. The cat was released to its owner, who resides in Culpeper County, and the case was turned over to the Culpeper County Health Department for follow-up. FAIRFAX POLICE CHECK FINDS NO ILLEGAL ALCOHOL SALES: All’s well that

ends well in a recent compliance check to see if local businesses were adhering to laws governing sale of alcohol. According to Fairfax County police, officers from the department conducted checks in the Fair Oaks District on May 29. Cadets attempted to purchase alcohol at 22 different businesses.

Bright Interior Colors Making a Comeback Vibrant, energetic colors – especially in kitchens – is one of the top trends seen in 2014, and kitchens remain a top remodeling project, according to Member Profile Study data from the National Association of the Remodeling Industry (NARI). In fact, 82 percent percent of NARI members identify kitchens as their primary service offering. The use of color in kitchen designs was identified as one of the themes emerging from the association’s 2014 CotY Awards program, which recognizes the top national projects in 25 categories. “Bright colors are very trendy, especially in contemporary kitchens,” says George Edwards, NARI’s Awards Chairman and chief operations officer of A & C Kitchens and Baths in Chester, Pa. “Color is a great way to create harmony, especially in open concept kitchens that flow into other parts of living and dining room space.” This year in the kitchen, design experts agree it’s all about color and creating contrasts, from pairing classic with contemporary styles to infusing touches of color into the timeless combination of black and white. Since most appliances are basic black, white or stainless steel, bold bursts of color are appearing on other surfaces. Color is often used to highlight the base of island or peninsula cabinets, colored stone in the countertop, different blends of cabinetry wood and in the tiles of the backsplash. For some homeowners, adding touches of color can update an existing look, while for others, it can be the starting point for a total remodeling of the space. In many of this year’s winning CotY kitchen designs, bolder colors such as blues, oranges, sunny yellows and avocado greens complement stainless steel and darker cabinet colors with neutral white finishes. What is making color trends different is fusing them together in fresh and inventive ways. Colors found in nature, such as relaxing silver blues, gray/greens and earthy browns, remain popular, but are now being integrated with bursts of poppy, vibrant pink, daiquiri green or purple. Warm yellow and red shades continue to be popular in kitchens because of their comforting and subtle hues. Coppery browns and Aztec clay colors – such as henna, ginger and gold tones – are also popular choices, especially in backsplashes where homeowners are inspired to use a variety of colors to personalize their kitchens and create a distinct décor.

Schools & Military n Paxton Rountree-Jablin of McLean has been awarded a St. Lawrence University Fellowship for study during the summer. A geology major, Rountree-Jablin will investigate the geology of the Adirondakc High Peaks Region through landslide exposures.

Some Waples Mill Elementary School SACC students and teacher Matthew Rice participated in the annual Cardboard Boat Regatta on June 1 at Lake Accotink in Springfield, and came away with two trophies, including the Pride of the Regatta. Students participating were Reid Cotton, Owen Lawson, Kevin Davis, Willa Johnson,  Davis Marden, Chris Rice, Cameron Vargas, Blaise Wuest, Daniel Nolan, Sophia Archer-Tang, Mike Witczak and Fiona Kluge. All entries had to comply with the specific rule, which was all boats must be made only from cardboard. Rice and his students built the winning vessel over a two-month period.  The theme of the boat was the Waples Mill Eagles and they built a removable head that caught the eye of the judges. n

n Gregory Fuchs, the son of Ralf and Christine Fuchs of McLean and a sixthgrader at The Heights School, has been selected to attend the Interlochen Center for the Arts program in Michigan this summer.

He will participate in the intermediatepiano program. n Benjamin Press of Vienna, a sophomore at James Madison High School, has been awarded a gold medal for his perfect score on the National French Contest 3A exam. His performance earns Press the chance to win a two-week stay in France, sponsored by the Embassy of France. n The Potomac School Intermediate Band received a score of 96 and a Superior rating at the recent Musicale Festival, held in Williamsburg. At the event, Potomac School eighthgrader John Schooner won the Outstanding Soloist award for his performance of “Normandy Beach” on the tuba. n Fairfax County police officer Scott Davis, the school-resource officer at McLean High School, will be honored as Fairfax County Public Schools’ Distinguished School Resource Officer of the Year at the June 5 School Board meeting. n Students at Kent Gardens Elementary School for the fifth year have participated in the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society’s “Pennies for Patients” campaign. The school community raised nearly $6,600 to support cancer patients, ranking the school second in the D.C. region behind Oakton Elementary, which raised just over $6,600.

finished third, raising just over $6,550. n Westgate Elementary School students on June 6 will be packaging meals to be sent to malnourished children and families in developing nations in partnership with Kids Against Hunger, a national organization that packaged and shipped nearly 40 million meals last year. The school’s goal is to package 30,000 meals at a cost of 25 cents each. “Students will be able to take a handson approach to doing a good deed and see first-hand that individuals, working together, can make the world a better place,” school officials said. n On May 25, 16 Boy Scouts and adults from Troop 55 participated in the 7.2-mile Baden-Powell Hike in Washington.

The event was established by Boy Scouts of the National Capital Area to commemorate Memorial Day and help Scouts understand the history of Scouting in the local area. Troop members paid tribute to fallen military personnel, studied Scouting history and did a good turn by removing trash from local streets. They also welcomed members of the Rolling Thunder motorcycle rally to Washington. By completing the event, the Scouts earned the inaugural Baden-Powell Hike Medal, a reproduction of the original gold medal awarded to Scouts for their efforts supporting the inauguration of President Woodrow Wilson in 2013. Sir Robert Baden-Powell, an English general, founded the Boy Scouts in the United Kingdom in 1907.

McLean Veteran Starter Hoists Team on His Back

ALLEN KHA

Dave Facinoli

For the Sun Gazette

Sullivan, a three-year starter who will pitch at Virginia Tech, tossed complete-game victories to lead the fourthseed Highlanders to upsets of No. 1 seeds Oakton and Madison in the first round and semifinals, respectively. Those victories made the Highlanders the tournament’s clear Cinderella story. In addition, that semifinal win gave McLean its first berth to play in this week’s state tournament. Prior to regionals, Sullivan hurled a shutout in McLean’s Liberty Conference 6 Tournament quarterfinal win over South Lakes, which clinched a region berth for McLean. Sullivan, also a shortstop, was extra motivated for the region competition because he wasn’t satisfied with his regular-season performance. Plus, he was not a first-team all-region selection, which helped fuel his fire. Truth is, Sullivan was probably fortunate to be chosen first-team all-Liberty Conference. So Sullivan believed he had something to prove and show. Wow, did he ever do both. His four-hitter in McLean’s 5-1 region semifinal win over Madison (21-3) was noteworthy. That triumph avenged McLean’s 11-3 regular-season loss on the same field a few weeks earlier when Sullivan certainly didn’t have his A game. He lasted just 11/3 innings that night. Madison pounded him for five hits. In addition, Sullivan walked two, hit a batter and balked. Sullivan’s playoff excellence is similar to what others have done. The names of pitcher Tommy Bell in baseball and point guard Daniel Dixon in basketball come to mind. Like Sullivan is doing now, those Marshall High players thrust heavy loads upon their strong backs to lead lower-seeded teams to significant post-season runs. That happens sometimes.

Langley Second in 6A North Tournament Final DAVE STEINBACHER For the Sun Gazette

It was all Robinson in the boys 6A North Region Tournament championship game, as the host Rams dominated won the laLACROSSE and crosse contest, routing the Langley Saxons, 15-3, on June 6. “They beat us in all phases. It was their night. They outplayed us,” Langley High School head coach Earl Brewer said. Robinson led, 2-0, at the end of the first quarter, 5-1 at halftime and 12-2 after three as Langley’s nine-game winning streak was snapped.

With Robinson ahead 8-1, Langley’s Gunnar Okeson scored unassisted midway through the third period. Later, with the Rams in front 12-2, Langley’s Weston Simonides tallied the Saxons’ final goal. The Rams then scored the final three goals. “We did a little too much ball watching,” said Langley goalie Patrick Dunne, who made 17 saves. “We got lost out there.” Helping Dunne on defense were Brian Weingast, Hunter Yates, Peter Bourgeois and Quinn Mullen. “This is one of those games in which we just have to let it go,” Brewer said. Langley (13-6) won just three faceoffs

and took 16 shots. Robinson took 40 shots. Also, Robinson gathered 21 ground balls to Langley’s 14. “I’m not going to make excuses,” Langley’s J.T. Meyer said. “Give credit to Robinson for being the better team tonight. We know we can play better.” Said Langley’s Billy Orme: “We got kind of sloppy. Unfortunately we got down on ourselves.” Langley, the 2012 region champion, was 2-1 in this year’s region tourney, nipping defending state champion Chantilly, 7-6, in overtime in the semifinals as Orme scored the game winner.

Defeat Westfield in Regional Final

Basically, Joey Sullivan refused to let his team lose. The McLean High School senior right-hander’s standout pitching performances in the 6A North Region baseball tournament were a classic case of a team’s best player putting the entire roster on his back, raising his game to the highest level possible and leading multiple victories.

She was unsatisfied with her team’s first-half performance, so Oakton Cougars head coach Jean Counts let her players know exactly that and why. The host Cougars (14-2) responded in the second half to defeat the Westfield 14-11, LACROSSE Bulldogs, on June 6 in the girls lacrosse championship game of the 6A North Region Tournament. The win was Oakton’s 11th in a row and its second region crown in three years. “Coach pretty much said our performance was unacceptable,” Oakton High School senior attacker Tori Anderson said. “Westfield won all of the draw controls and we weren’t placing our shots well. We had to play better defense. We all had to play better. We needed to come out with fire in the second half. We had to protect our home turf.” The halftime speech appeared to work. The Cougars clamped down on defense and starting winning draws, scoring six of the game’s final seven goals. Both teams entered the contest with plenty of motivation. Westfield (16-3), fresh off an upset of the defending state champion Madison Warhawks in the region semifinals,

McLean 2nd in Region, Earns First State Tourney Berth DAVE FACINOLI Staff Writer

Cinderella continued to dance all the way to the royal ball when the glass slippers came off one game too soon. The McLean Highlanders, a fourth seed, upset their way to the 6A North Region Tournament championgame where the high school BASEBALL ship baseball team lost to the host Chantilly Chargers, 12-0, on June 6. McLean (15-11) was 3-1 in the tourney, upsetting two No. 1 seeds and a No. 2 to reach the final. The region crown was the first for Chantilly (17-7). By virtue of reaching the title game, McLean qualified for the state tourney for the first time in school history. The Highlanders play the 6A South Region champion Western Branch Bruins (24-2) in a semifinal game at 3 p.m. Friday, June 13 at Robinson Secondary School. Against Chantilly, the Highlanders were not able to use either of their top two pitchers. “Clearly we could have played better baseball,” McLean coach John Dowling said about the region final. “In that first inning we didn’t respond to adversity very well. We made some good diving plays at shortstop and they got some flare hits, but we couldn’t get an out.” Chantilly’s first six batters reached base off junior starter Charles Groppe, with five players getting hits. Three of the hits were infield safeties. In all, Chantilly sent 14 batters to the plate in the first inning. Chantilly added a run in the third and two in the sixth on Mike Sciorra’s two-run triple. Sciorra was 3 for 5 with five RBI, including a three-run homer in the first. McLean’s hits went to Joey Sullivan, Grady Paine, Matt Bielamowicz and Ben Clines doubled.

“On offense we tried to do too much,” Dowling said. “Our execution was not there.” Said Sullivan: “It was not a fun game but this has been a fun tournament for us. We got to beat Madison. That meant so much.” Madison (21-3) was a No. 1 seed and defeated McLean twice in the regular season. McLean upset Madison, 5-1, in the semifinals. All three of McLean’s region wins were road victories. McLean nipped the Oakton Cougars, 1-0, in the first round and downed Battlefield, 7-5, in the quarterfinals. Oakton was a No. 1 seed and Battlefield at No. 2. “McLean is a hot team right now so credit them,” said Madison coach Mark Gjormand, whose squad had won 12 games in a row. “One win can spark a lot of things and start a forest fire. That’s what happened when they beat Oakton.”

McLean gained the momentum right from the start against Madison by scoring two first-inning runs. Then, senior right-hander and Virginia-Tech bound Sullivan (3-0 in the postseason, 2-0 in the region tourney) did the rest on the mound. He limited Madison to four hits and one run over the 61/3 inning game. His two walks came late in the game when the rain fell heavier and the ball was slippery. “We have gotten hot at the right time,” Sullivan said. He pitched a complete game for the victory over Oakton. “We felt we could beat Madison if we kept playing like we have been,” McLean sophomore shortstop Conor Grammes said. McLean did not make an error against Madison and turned two infield double plays on ground balls. Grammes led the offense by going 4 for 4 with two doubles. “Nobody squares up on the ball better than Conor Grammes,” Dowling said. ‘He was fantastic.” Added Grammes: “My hits came on three curveballs and a fastball. I had a good night.” McLean had 11 hits. Jon Clines and Evan Blake each had two hits and an RBI, and Caleb Beatty added two hits. Jesse Jones had a hit and two RBI. Blake made two good plays on fly balls in right field. For complete game stories on McLean’s run through the region tournament visit www.insidenova.com. NOTES: McLean is the first team in the history of the 16-team region tournament to reach the championship game by winning three road games . . . The last No. 4 seed to reach the region final was W.T. Woodson in 2010 . . . Late in the regular season, McLean lost four games in a row to fall to 9-9. Since that stretch, the Highlanders were 6-2, including a 4-1 victory over Yorktown in a Liberty Conference Tournament play-in game as the No. 7 seed just to advance in postseason play.

looked to continue its giant-killing run against 2012 state champion Oakton. The Bulldogs dressed the part, donning warm-up shirts saying “sic semper tyrannis” (i.e. “down with the tyrants”) and took to an early lead. Led by speedy Virginia-bound senior midfielder Meghan Heick, Westfield played with pace and emotion. The Bulldogs got the ball into the final third early and often, scoring their first four goals either straight off the draw or off quicklyearned free positions. Oakton kept up in a back-and-forth first half that ended tied at 6. “Our shooters weren’t able to find the back of the net, and we were losing the draw controls,” Counts said. “We needed a feel-good moment, a spark. When those sparks happen, you get opportunities to create more.” Oakton found its spark midway through the second half, scoring four unanswered goals to turn a 10-8 deficit into a late 12-10 lead. The Cougars started playing with an increased sense of urgency, face guarding Heick and Navy-bound senior midfielder Molly O’Sullivan on defense and pushing the ball quickly

Oakton’s Olivia Townsend makes a leaping catch to control one of the draws.

from defense to attack on offense. “We forced other players to get the ball and take shots,” Oakton senior midfielder Danielle Palmucci said. As Westfield struggled to find offense the Bulldogs went nine minutes without scoring. Oakton grew in confidence as the hosts started consistently to find open attackers in the middle of the crease with effective and methodical movement. “The movement was what you play for. It’s exciting to watch,” Counts said.

The pace of the game slowed down in the final 10 minutes, as play grew increasingly physical. A few minutes after Oakton drew a yellow card and successfully worked off a player-down situation, Westfield drew a yellow card down 12-11 with four minutes remaining. The Bulldogs were unable to defend the player-up situation, conceding two late goals that sealed Oakton’s region title and “proved that this was our win and our turf,” Anderson said.

Said Palmucci: “This was a great win, but we still have two more games to go. That’s our ultimate goal.” Westfield senior attack Grace Horgan led her team with four goals, while sophomore Kellie Cleveland added three. Lydia Montanino led Oakton with four goals, while Palmucci and Anderson each added three goals. Also, Mai Pionke, Rachel Pionke and Katie Scoggins scored goals. Oakton was 3-0 in the region.

onds into the extra period. “I came around goal and found an open alley,” Orme said about his winning shot. “I let it go from about 10 yards out.” Orme had four goals in the game and has 51 for the season. Meyer has scored

27.

Langley plays in the 6A state tournament this week. Four teams play in the state tournament, including Robinson. It’s possible the Rams and Saxons could meet again in the June 14 state final.

Langley defeated Westfield, 15-11, in its first region game. Orme had six goals and three assists, Simonides had four goals and two assists, and Meyer and Okeson had two goals each.

to DCA and took them away from Dulles,â&#x20AC;? she said. Ultimately, the lower demand for United flights to Salt Lake City from Dulles â&#x20AC;&#x153;became so great that we took down our flights.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Now there is no flight, unless you go to DCA. And this isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t the only market that is under that kind of stress,â&#x20AC;? Van Duyne. United long has been the dominant airline serving Dulles, but has cut back both passenger and cargo service at the airport. And while United is making money, it has not rebounded as well from the recession as some of its competitors. Van Duyne said United is committed to having a hub at Dulles and to its partnership with MWAA, â&#x20AC;&#x153;but we also have to run a business.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;The picture for Dulles is full of lots of potential, but it is going to take the investment of so many of you in this room to get involved,â&#x20AC;? Van Duyne said at the regional meeting. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In the end,

Continued from Page 1 But efforts to apply the brakes may be stymied by the federal government, which owns both airports, and more specifically Congress, which considers Reagan National its personal fiefdom. Ongoing relaxation of perimeter restrictions at Reagan National (DCA) means passengers can use the airport to travel to the West Coast. That causes problems from Dulles. â&#x20AC;&#x153;MWAA and Dulles and National were set up as a system, so they would both grow with strength into the decades,â&#x20AC;? said Nancy Van Duyne, United Airlinesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; vice president of congressional affairs. Van Duyne used the Salt Lake City route as an example. â&#x20AC;&#x153;United used to serve [Salt Lake City] from Dulles. So did Delta. But in the last FAA reauthorization bill, Delta received the ability to provide service at DCA [to Salt Lake City], so they moved their flights

CHANGING FORTUNES AT AIRPORTS

Figures show the changing passenger totals at Northern Virginiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s two major airports since Washington Dullesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; passenger count peaked in 2005. Data from Metropolitan Washington Aiports Authority.

Year 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013

the only people who actually care about the health of Dulles and our area, our region, and our economy are you folks here and those you are connected to in your community.â&#x20AC;? The imbalance between Reagan National and Washington Dulles is concerning to officials with the airports authority, and also to jurisdictions that surround the larger airport. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is a very vital part of our

economic-development strategy, as it is for the rest of the region,â&#x20AC;? said Loudoun Board of Supervisors Chairman Scott York (R). â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is the gateway not only to domestic [locations], but for international economic development,â&#x20AC;? York said. York noted that Dulles gives the region direct access to 80 percent of the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s economy, and that access is continuing to grow. Air China is starting four flights

weekly to Beijing, York said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;and they are already booked for three months solid,â&#x20AC;? York said. Potter said that there is an opportunity to build another hotel on airport property, as well as land adjacent to the future Route 606 Metro station at the airportâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s northern border that could be developed. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We want to work cooperatively with neighboring developers and [Loudoun County],â&#x20AC;? Potter said of plans for the roughly 500 acres. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are very grateful that the county has brought some developers to the table to discuss how we might use that land . . . to help increase the tax base and fit in with the economic-development plans,â&#x20AC;? he said. To that end, Potter said cargo is going to be increasingly important to Dulles Airport, with airport leadership eyeing emerging markets like flowers and pharmaceuticals as places for growth.
