February 24, 2012
Highlights
- Office of Community Revitalization will guide development of new policies for transformation of Tysons into an urban center.
- It will lead a multi-agency committee focused on transformation plans.
Fairfax County officials announced that the Office of Community Revitalization will oversee the plan to transform Tysons into a walkable, green, urban center.
Because the redevelopment plan involves multiple agencies, the office will help to coordinate efforts countywide, including guiding the direction of any new policies that may be needed.
Among other duties, the office will be responsible for:
- Leading a multi-agency staff committee focused on Tysons
- Liaising with the Planning Commission's Tysons Committee and the nonprofit Tysons Partnership that is comprised of area landowners and others
As an example of the office’s new role, it led the development of the Tysons Corner Urban Design Guidelines. They were created with input from multiple county agencies, an outside advisory group, community groups and the Tysons Partnership.
