Get Involved: Help Guide Fairfax’s Comprehensive Plan Amendments

Published on 10/17/2024
Fairfax County is updating its Countywide Policy Plan as part of a multi-year project called **Plan Forward**. The Policy Plan covers areas such as land use, transportation, housing, and the environment. The goal of Plan Forward is to review, streamline, and update these policies, ensuring they align with the Countywide Strategic Plan, the One Fairfax Policy, and other initiatives. Community involvement is a key part of this process, with public feedback opportunities starting in May 2024 and continuing into 2025.

Residents are encouraged to participate in community meetings, provide feedback through surveys, and stay informed via email updates. The outreach plan is designed to engage as many community members as possible through various formats, from in-person meetings to virtual sessions. Public involvement will help shape the final recommendations, ensuring the updated policies enhance the quality of life for all Fairfax County residents.
