Site work for a mixed-use development in Purcellville, Virginia. Conceptual plans call for site work for a playground / park / athletic field; and water / sewer project.

This proposal is to replace the existing asphalt warning track in its entirety and the outfield fence at Fireman’s Field Baseball Park. During the significant upgrades to the park in 1996, prior to the first Babe Ruth World Series, the old asphalt warning track surface received a thin overly with a composite material comprised of recycled tires and a binder. Forward now 25 years and the condition of the current warning track is very poor. Numerous areas are worn, torn, or broken in such a manner that causes a significant trip hazard for players. In addition, the existing material used does not allow for the necessary drainage of surface water when it rains. This results in regular flooding of portions of the field, particularly near home plate. This project will improve the drainage for the field to enable games to be played when normally they would be cancelled. The existing outfield fence has been damaged over the years by fallen tree limbs and wind. Currently, portions of the fence are being propped up by temporary supports to maintain its integrity to allow for ball games to be played. The useful life of this project is expected to be 15-20 years. This project is dependent upon the receipt of funding from Loudoun County. This project is included in the city’s 2023-2027 Capital Improvement Plan. As of March 15, 2024, per owner, this project does not show funding until FY26 and even then the funding source has not been identified. Therefore this project has not yet begun. *Project information has been obtained through a public capital improvement plan (CIP). A CIP is a financial schedule for short- and long-range projects which is updated regularly. Information listed in the CIP often evolves based on funding availability and the project details, including timeline and value, are subject to change. The content management team will continue to pursue additional details as they become available.
