Boards, Authorities and Commissions - Government - Fairfax County, Virginia

In our democracy, government is of the people, by the people and for the people. That is why citizen participation in local government is so essential. Local government is the form of government closest to us in our everyday lives, and the one we are most able to influence. Advisory bodies play a very important role in county government.

If you are interested in serving on a county board, authority, commission, or committee ("BAC"), contact your Supervisor. Please be prepared to provide a current resume. Certain members of BACs must file financial disclosure statements upon appointment, and annually thereafter.
