The Sully District Council remembers Carol Hawn

Carol had civic responsibility in her DNA. She contributed her time to so many organizations, WFCCA, Sully District Council, the Fairfax County Federation, the League of Women Voters, several County boards and commissions, the Old Mill HOA, and other we have probably left out. Carol was a volunteer who could always be counted on to help. She was someone who would take the minutes, rewrite the bylaws, maintain the files, organize the newsletter, handle administrative tasks nobody really wanted to do. She also tried to build consensus among individuals who may have had opposing political affiliations but common concerns on local issues.
Carol also was unafraid to speak out, to challenge governmental arrogance when necessary. She spoke many times at public hearings of the Board of Supervisors, Planning Commission, Board of Zoning Appeals, VDOT and others, advocating the positions of citizen groups. Carol was not easily intimidated. When the Board of Supervisors attempted to use emergency powers in the absence of an emergency, she was one of four successful citizen plaintiffs who sued the Board of Supervisors and got the original ZMOD ordinance approval overturned in the Virginia Supreme Court, determined to be void ab initio. Berry v. Board of Supervisors is an important decision confirming that even county boards have to follow the law, now part of Carol’s legacy to the community.
Her passing leaves a big hole in the community. She will be dearly missed.
There likely will be an “event” on August 2nd at the Va. Run clubhouse, in the afternoon
A recent Connection edition has two articles on Carol.

Sully District is the Western-most Supervisor District in Fairfax County, Virginia. It includes parts of such communities as Centreville, Chantilly, Oak Hill, Navy/Vale and Oakton. The county provides locator maps for schools, libraries, emergency facilities, and delegate and senate districts.
The Sully District Council is a citizen-run organization whose members are Sully District citizen organizations. Those organizations that choose to join the Sully District Council select their representatives to participate in the Council's various activities.
Our District Council holds its regularly scheduled monthly meetings in the Sully District Governmental Center, 4900 Stonecroft Boulevard, Chantilly, VA., 20151. The general membership meets on the fourth Wednesday of the month. The Land Use and Transportation Committee meets jointly with the West Fairfax County Citizens association on the third Monday of the month. These meetings may be rescheduled when the meeting would be on holiday or close to a holiday - see the schedules available on the right for the exact days. Meetings start at 7:00 PM.
Sully District is named for the Sully Historic Site located just east of Washington Dulles International Airport and across from the Stephen F. Udvar-Hazy Center Smithsonian Air and Space Museum Annex.
Sully District Supervisor Kathy Smith is our supervisor, taking over after our long-time Supervisor Michael Frey retired after serving the district since it was established after the 1990 census. Although the Sully District Council acts independently from Supervisor Smith, we work together to best serve the citizens of Sully District. The Sully Planning Commissioner refers land use matters to the council's Land Use and Transportation Committee. Both the Sully representatives to the Fairfax County Transportation Advisory Commission (TAC) and Planning Commission on occasion attend the committee's meetings.
General membership meetings highlight issues of interest to the Sully Community. Our annual State of the District meetings feature our Supervisor. Other times we are briefed on the school or county budget by a representative of their respective budget staff, or have the local police or fire station chief as the featured speaker. Various members of the Sully Council attend or have been appointed to countywide commissions or task forces, such as education, trails, or public safety and keep the membership informed.
Sully District Council is a member of the Fairfax County Federation of Civic Associations (the Federation) and our Vice-president is a member of the Federation's executive board.
