The Site-Specific Plan Amendment Process (SSPA) is an opportunity to participate in Fairfax County's land use planning process by submitting proposals (called Nominations) to amend the Area Plan volumes of the Comprehensive Plan (the Plan) and/or the Comprehensive Land Use Plan Map through the Plan Amendment Work Program. The Comprehensive Plan is the guide used by the Planning Commission and the Board of Supervisors to make land use decisions.
The SSPA process, including the appointment of Task Force members, is organized by the County's Supervisor Districts. In the 2017 SSPA cycle, Comprehensive Plan land use guidance for the northern portion of the County, including the Dranesville, Hunter Mill, Providence and Sully Supervisor Districts, was reviewed. The map on the right depicts the locations of the nine supervisor districts within Fairfax County (click on the map to enlarge).
On June 20, 2017 the Board of Supervisors adopted the Site-Specific Plan Amendment Process to increase public participation in the development of the Comprehensive Plan Amendment Work Program. The 2017 North County SSPA screening report consist of the staff summary reports and task force reports, as well as the original applications for six nominations within the Dranesville, Providence, and Sully Supervisor District. No nominations were received in within the Hunter Mill Supervisor District.
The nomination period closed on December 5, 2017. No additional nominations will be accepted at this time. Information about the nominations which have been accepted into the SSPA process are available on the Track a Nomination page.
