Update: The Board of Supervisors will hold a public hearing on the revisions to the proposed WDU Administrative Guidelines on March 18, 2025 at 4:30 PM at the Government Center 12000 Government Center Parkway, Fairfax, VA 22035. For more information, click here.
On September 10, 2024, the Board of Supervisors adopted revisions to the Workforce Dwelling Unit policies contained within the Comprehensive Plan (WDU Policy) and directed staff to revise the associated Countywide and Tysons Urban Center WDU Administrative Policy Guidelines. The Administrative Guidelines serve as the implementation and administrative mechanism for the WDU Policy and address such aspects as integration and dispersion of WDUs within a development; technical requirements for the units; WDU sale, resale, and rental requirements; and legal documentation for commitment of the WDUs. The proposed revisions to the Administrative Guidelines incorporate and provide additional guidance on the recently adopted WDU Policy changes and make additional changes. If adopted by the Board, they would replace the current Administrative Guidelines, adopted February 23, 2021.
