Site-Specific Plan Amendment Process
Do you have ideas on better ways to use land in Fairfax County? We’re open to suggestions. The South County Site-Specific Plan Amendment Process is underway. (“South County” includes the Braddock District.) It allows anyone to nominate changes to the Comprehensive Plan, our guiding document for land use and development decisions. This process runs through December 3 and it’s one of many ways the community can have a voice in how land is used in Fairfax County to ensure that our community continues to be an attractive, safe, and sustainable place to live for generations to come. We want to hear from you. Learn more here: https://www.fairfaxcounty.gov/planning-development/plan-amendments/sspa
