Large Area CPD


Community Parking District Program (CPD) Large Area Application

On March 10, 2008, the Board of Supervisors approved an amendment to the Fairfax County Code 82-5B to allow for a new process that can be used to create a large area CPD. This process augments the current petition based process which is still in use. In all cases, restrictions only apply to public streets in residential areas within any CPD.

For this new process, a district supervisor submits a request that would include all or most of their magisterial district. Any area that is not included should be contiguous in nature and must meet one of the following minimum size requirements:

  1. 3,500 addresses
  2. 35 miles of secondary roadway
  3. At least 5 square miles in area

Vehicles that are restricted:

  • Boat Trailer
  • Watercraft (boat)
  • Motor Home
  • Camping Trailer
  • Trailer or Semi-trailer, even if attached to a vehicle
  • Vehicle >= 3 axles
  • Vehicle with a gross vehicle weighted rating (GVWR) >= 12,000 lbs

Vehicles temporarily parked (for up to 48 hours) for the purpose of loading, unloading or preparing for a trip are exempt. More information is available at www.fairfaxcounty.gov/fcdot/rtap.htm#cpd
