Get over it. Let them build whatever size house they want. <br />As for the DRB member, If I had tried two different plans that got rejected by the board, seems pretty simple to me to work with someone from the board to make up plans that fit the qualifications to get passed.<br />I have lived in Reston for my whole life. There are many things about Reston I like...but there are just some things that are just SO RIDICULOUS about it, as well. This is a case in point.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6412900754136064810.post-35847013497965940512011-06-16T10:05:37.321-04:002011-06-16T10:05:37.321-04:00Thanks Restonian for passing that video along.

But I also think it's a terrible conflict of interest to be able to hire a sitting DRB member, and I agree with neighbors that a new home on that land should be designed to fit in with the community.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
