The 2232 Review Process

Through Fairfax County's 2232 Review Process, the Fairfax County Planning Commission reviews public facility and utility proposals to determine if their general or approximate location, character and extent are substantially in accord with the Fairfax County Comprehensive Plan. The term "2232 Review" is derived from a Code of Virginia requirement under Section 15.2-2232.

Fairfax County's 2232 Review Process applies to all public areas, public buildings or structures and public utility or public service corporation facilities, whether publicly or privately owned. Enlargements, changes of use, and other changes to public areas may also be subject to these provisions.
