No; we had a series of public engagement opportunities where we discussed all the proposed changes. We continue to listen to all comments on our service plan and refine the plan where appropriate. We will present a revised plan during the second phase of our public outreach period, which will begin in late March or early April. The final plan ultimately requires Board approval.
Comments regarding the proposed changes can be sent to fairfaxconnector@fairfaxcounty.gov, or you can call 703-877-5600, TTY 711.
