What's Up With That?
Why Reston Association is looking to add one particular property to the association.

What makes that house so special? It's not the house, its the owner.

A home can be added to RA with the written consent of the homeowner and any holder of a deed of trust and a two-thirds vote of the Board of Directors during a meeting in which a quorum is present.
