Supervisor John Foust (D-Dranes- ville), who outlined a CBC study at a Feb. 20 virtual open house, said he was im- pressed by the consensus achieved. “Like you might expect, there was not unanimous agreement, but in my experi- ence in this business, it was as close as you can get,” Foust said. “There was an amazing amount of agreement amongst those who participated on what we really need to do: Make McLean work for ev- erybody.” McLean leaders earlier pinned hopes on a “Main Street McLean” mixed-use concept that would have redeveloped ar- eas near the Giant Food shopping center. But the developer, McLean Properties, in June 2017 opted not to pursue the initia- tive. The company in 2008 also was going to submit a redevelopment plan for cen- tral McLean, but backed out because of the economic recession.
