Reston Association Board Director Tim Cohn, North Point District, resigned from the board, citing personal reasons. The association's CEO, Cate Fulkerson, said the process to fill Cohn's seat will be discussed at the special board meeting on June 12. The term expires in April 2016.

Cohn was elected to the board in April 2013. During his tenure, he served on the CEO Selection Committee and as board liaison to the Pedestrian & Bicycling, Transportation and Tennis advisory committees.

"Tim's commitment to RA was evident in his time on the RA board. His passion for the essential elements of Reston guided his thoughtful decision making process and illustrated his dedication to maintaining the unique characteristics which define Reston," said Fulkerson.

Board President Ken Knueven echoed Fulkerson's remarks by saying, "We are going to miss Tim's insight and perspective on the board but know the Reston community will still benefit from his active involvement and steadfast loyalty to the successful future of Reston."

Reston Association is investigating possible causes of a recent fish kill at Lake Thoreau. Lake consultants for the association have reported seeing similar fish kills in other area lakes they manage.

The recent 90 degree weather followed by a cold spell and heavy rains, along with stress from spawning at this time of year, could be the cause of the kill, according to experts. Another potential cause could be a bacterial infection called Columnaris disease. RA does not believe toxins are responsible for the fish kill at Lake Thoreau.

The Reston Association Board of Directors voted to accept the proposal for the association's Procedures for Commenting on Development/Redevelopment Projects as developed by RA staff and Land Use Counsel in coordination with Fairfax County Hunter Mill District Supervisor Catherine M. Hudgins and County Planning staff. Click here to read more about last week's vote.
