Fairfax County Budget Meetings Scheduled

Overgrown Braddock Rd trail

Fairfax County is holding town hall meetings to allow citizens to learn about the proposed budget and a chance to tell your county representatives about your priorities. See the schedule below and on the county town hall meetings page.

According to the County Executive Summary of the FY 2018 Advertised Budget Plan: "Significant capital investment requirements continue to be deferred, such as County and Parks infrastructure replacement and upgrades, revitalization maintenance, and trails and sidewalks."

We encourage cyclists to attend one of these meetings and tell county reps that our trails are in very poor condition and we shouldn't ignore needed maintenance any longer. If you can't attend a meeting consider writing to your County Supervisor and Chairman Bulova, everyone's Supervisor.
