The Comprehensive Plan is a guide used for making land use decisions for Fairfax County. The Area Plans Review (APR) process is an opportunity for anyone to submit a nomination for consideration as an amendment to the Area Plan volumes of the Comprehensive Plan. Nominators and any interested parties can review the nominations that have been submitted; attend Task Force meetings; review the Department of Planning and Zoning staff report on each nomination; and testify at public hearings (or in writing) before the Planning Commission and the Board of Supervisors. Action by the Board of Supervisors is required to amend the Comprehensive Plan.
