This Week in The Village
April 10, 2026
| | The spring season is upon us, and flowers and vibrant trees are blooming throughout our community. It’s a perfect time to get outside, take a peaceful walk around one of our eight lakes and pond, and enjoy the beauty of our pollinator gardens. If you’d like to learn more about our pollinator gardens, you can explore additional details and view photos here. | |
E‑Bikes and Pedestrian Safety in Ashburn Village
E‑bikes are becoming increasingly popular in our community, especially among younger riders. While they offer a fun, eco‑friendly way to get around, it’s important that riders and pedestrians can safely share our sidewalks and walking trails.
Understanding E‑Bikes
-
Class 1 & 2: Pedal‑assist or throttle, up to 20 mph
-
Class 3: Pedal‑assist up to 28 mph; riders must be at least 14 and have a speedometer
Virginia Law
E‑bikes are permitted on roads with speed limits under 25 mph and on bike paths, as long as riders yield to pedestrians.
Community Awareness
Ashburn Village’s governing documents do not currently regulate e‑bikes, but the Board has identified education and awareness as the best approach at this time.
Safety Reminders for Riders
- Slow down around pedestrians and in busy areas
- Use a bell or verbal alert when passing
- Yield to pedestrians at all times
- Stay alert for children, pets, and individuals who may not hear or see you coming
By riding responsibly and respectfully, we can keep our sidewalks and trails safe and enjoyable for everyone.

Inspections:
Annual Property Reviews Currently in Progress
Inspectors have completed Zone 1 and are now working on Zone 2!
Each year, Association staff conduct annual inspections of single‑family homes and townhomes to help ensure properties remain in compliance with the Community Guidelines.
If you are a new homeowner in the Village, or if you’re unfamiliar with the Architectural and Environmental Guidelines that our Community Standards Inspectors follow, we encourage you to review them ahead of time. Being familiar with the Guidelines is a great way to stay informed.
Read more about the inspection process—and find out which zone your home falls under—in the February Villager magazine on pages 6 and 7 by clicking here.
In addition to Annual inspections, inspectors may be in your area addressing resident-submitted concerns, and performing resale inspections if you are selling your home.

Please put yard waste in paper lawn bags or a container specifically marked "Yard Waste."
Yard debris is picked up on Mondays only and can be placed on the curbside up to 2 days prior to pick up.
Yard waste does not include any materials arising from tree removal, land clearing, or development activities (i.e.- hired landscaping contractors).
For more information, click here, and scroll down to the second to last section titled Yard Waste/Compost.

Share Your Thoughts: Steam Room Survey
Now Open
| | |
As part of ongoing facility planning at the Sports Pavilion, the existing steam room is due for a significant overhaul. The estimated cost to replace the steam room is approximately $35,000.
Before moving forward, we are seeking resident input on whether to renovate the current steam room or consider alternative uses for the space.
Your feedback will help guide this decision.
This survey will close on Apr. 19, 2026
