Fairfax, VA, United States
Report Summary:

The City of Fairfax requested the Technical Assistance Panel (TAP) to develop a vision for the southwest Fairfax Circle area that meets the goals of the Comprehensive Plan, identifies and overcomes barriers to redevelopment or reinvestment in properties, and encourages coordination and partnerships between property representatives and the City. The southwest Fairfax Circle area includes eight parcels within the Fairfax Circle Activity Center, one of five activity centers identified in the City of Fairfax 2035 Comprehensive Plan, where a greater mix of uses, coordinated redevelopment, and a pedestrian oriented atmosphere are encouraged. Per recommendations of the Comprehensive Plan, the City intends to develop a Small Area Plan for the entire Fairfax Circle Activity Center, which would help define parameters for new growth and encourage redevelopment and reinvestment in existing properties.
