Keep Reston green! We are losing too many green spaces to over-development. That will cause more congestions on our roads, and overcrowd our schools. STOP before it's too late, we need more infrastructure.

We're overcrowded now. No more growth.

Reston's population is dense enough. (nudge, nudge, wink, wink) Slow down the growth or the area around RTC and the Silver Line will be one giant parking lot.

We need to maintain and, particularly along the toll road, improve the quality of schools and the attention directed to the needs of individual students. Class sizes should not be increased and this should not be done by increasing tax rates on current residential property. If developers are granted rights to build which stresses present infrastructure, funding new infrastructure estimated based on current demographics (as approved by a panel representing the community and without conflicting interests with developers) for the relevant zip codes should be part of the developers construction costs. In addition, acres of green space (not concrete patio) should be maintained for the good of the community and wildlife.

I am STRONGLY opposed to increasing the density of Reston!

The schools are over crowded and not enough money or space to improve on this problem. Stop building multi dwelling properties. Especially apartments.

I still don't understand FFC's long-term development plan. "They" keep moving the cheese in small increments. I guess they believe we won't notice.

We do not want to be Arlington nor inherit the same problems as Prince William. Lower the density and inprove the quality of life.

Ultimately, over-development will cost Fairfax County dearly--in funds and votes.

We are fast becoming "Tysons West." That's not what Reston is about.

The density in this area does not need to be increased. It is difficult enough to get around with traffic, and the schools are overcrowded as is. The balance between the woods and a natural environment and housing and commercial was the reason I moved here ten years ago. We need not pave the entire conversation but over. No more development!

County Board is insatiable in its desire for more tax dollars while county lifestyle and services decline. They're tax junkies!!

Open space isn't the same as Green Space. And green space shouldn't be prime for redevelopment. Please help keep Reston looking like Reston with Green screens and green spaces.

We should NEVER be playing catchup for the infrastructure. Please show us a viable plan. This should precede any zoning amendments.

Stage a massive rally at the office for FBOS. Aim for end of July or early August. We will show up. Then, these radical Alt Left asshats will have to hear us.

Please don't ruin Reston. We don't need to be another Arlington or Tysons. It's not right to rush development and tell residents we'll get to infrastructure later.

Well presented and logical. I strongly endorse the petition.
