Good evening. I would like to call to order the January 13, 2026 Loudoun County Board of Supervisors Finance Government Operations and Economic Development Committee meeting. Excuse me. This meeting has a hearing loop. If you need hearing assistance, switch your hearing aids to telecoil mode. If you need a headset, we have those available as well. Please see the clerk to request one. Questions and comments are not timed. However, once a motion is on the table, committee members will have three minutes to ask questions and make comments for all items in the motions. Pursuant to Virginia Code Section 2.23708.3, the Board and the Board's Rules of Order, Chair Randall requested to participate in this meeting remotely.

A physical quorum of the Finance, Government, Operations, and Economic Development Committee of the Board of Supervisors is present in the boardroom. and the committee has made arrangements for the voice of Chair Randall to be heard by all persons in the boardroom. Chair Randall made this request within the required timeframe, and the county attorney determined that this request meets the qualifications to participate remotely. The committee will record in its action report that, Chair Randall participated remotely from a secure location at her residence in Loudoun County, Virginia, due to personal reasons. Colleagues, before we start with our agenda, I would like to just have a moment of silence for Kalina Yu, who unfortunately lost her life today in a pedestrian fatality.

It's being investigated, so I'm not gonna make any more comments except to say that it is truly unfortunate and we want to recognize that many lives and families will be impacted by this unfortunate situation. So please join me in a moment of silence.
