We have such an amazing city, full of generous organizations that truly care about the health of all those who use our parks and community spaces! Please join me in a huge thank you to these organizations!!

AED Donation Update

In response to the installation of the outdoor AED at Draper Drive Park through the Aliver Foundation Grant, several other community organizations have stepped up to donate additional units. The Women’s Club, Kiwanis, and the Lions joined together to donate an outdoor AED at Green Acres Park.

Then an anonymous donor contacted the Parks office to donate funds for two additional outdoor AEDs. These two units will be installed at Stafford Drive Park and Old Town Square. Then, just this week the Fairfax City Volunteer Fire Department committed to donating the funds for two more AEDs. These will be placed at Van Dyck Park and Providence Park.

These generous donations combined with the grant funded AED, and the ARPA funded AED will mean that the City will increase its outdoor publicly accessible AEDs from 0 to 7 in less than six months.

Hope to see you tomorrow!

I hope you’ll join me this Sunday for my campaign kickoff and, more importantly, a celebration of our Fairfax community!

We’ll be gathering from 4:00–8:00 PM at the Shoppes at Main Street in Old Town Fairfax for an afternoon and evening of music, dancing, kids’ activities, a moon bounce, cake walk, Woody’s ice cream, McKenzie’s burritos, chili dogs, and more.

At 5:30 PM, I’ll take a few minutes to welcome everyone, introduce some friends from around our community, and talk briefly about why I’m running for Mayor and what I hope we can accomplish together.

The weather is looking great—sunny and unusually cool for early September—so bring your family, invite a friend or neighbor, and come spend some time with us. Stay for 20 minutes or stay for the afternoon.

It’s free, everyone is welcome, and no RSVP is needed.

📍 Shoppes at Main Street, 10409 Main Street
📅 Sunday, September 6
⏰ 4:00–8:00 PM

I hope to see you Sunday!

Very good information about reminder of the council's work session tomorrow, and the city's open house on Wednesday regarding density, zoning and some proposals that are expected to come before council in the coming months.

Please educate yourself on this, and on the candidates you choose to support in the upcoming election!

IMPORTANT FAIRFAX PUBLIC MEETINGS ON HIGH DENSITY DEVELOPMENT THIS WEEK — YOUR INPUT MATTERS

🇺🇸 Fairfax residents have two important opportunities this week to learn more about proposed development and zoning changes that could significantly shape our city for decades.

https://experience.arcgis.com/experience/d970b585bcda4ec0b99b9ddd4fec69e6 =id%3AdataSource_3-19ca11c27d2-layer-2%3A32

TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 1 — FAIRFAX CIRCLE, 4 PM START TIME

The City Council will discuss the proposed Circle Gateway project, including an 11-story building at Fairfax Circle. This is the first of several major redevelopment proposals expected to come forward in areas covered by the city's Small Area Plans.

WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 2 — SMALL AREA PLAN ZONING OPEN HOUSE

🕔 5:00–8:00 p.m. — stop by anytime
📍 Sherwood Community Center, 3740 Blenheim Boulevard

The City is holding an open house on proposed Small Area Plan Zoning Ordinance Amendments. These amendments would change zoning standards to implement the Small Area Plans governing redevelopment in Fairfax Circle, Kamp Washington and Old Town/Northfax.

Residents can review the proposed changes, talk directly with city staff, ask questions, and provide comments.

WHY THIS MATTERS

The City's Small Area Plans contemplate major redevelopment, including approximately 4,700 additional housing units.

To put that number in perspective:

• Fairfax currently has approximately 10,604 households. Adding 4,700 units would represent an increase of about 44% in the city's housing stock in ten years.
• The city's population is approximately 26,772. At an average of 2.7 residents per additional household, 4,700 new occupied units could represent approximately 12,690 additional residents, bringing the population to roughly 39,462.
• If that growth occurred over the next decade, it would represent a substantial acceleration from the city's recent population growth rate and even greater when compared to Fairfax County.

These numbers don't tell us whether individual projects are good or bad. But they do show why decisions about building height, density, transportation, schools, infrastructure, taxes, parks, public services and quality of life deserve careful consideration and meaningful public participation.

NOW IS THE TIME TO PARTICIPATE.

The September 2 open house is an opportunity to review the proposed zoning standards before formal Planning Commission and City Council public hearings later this fall.

You can also review the City's maps of major development projects and planned redevelopment areas online. The map provides a useful visual picture of where this growth could occur across Fairfax.

Whatever your views on growth and development, I encourage you to learn about these proposals, ask questions, and make your voice heard. Decisions of this magnitude should be made with the community—not simply presented to the community after the important choices have already been made.

WHAT YOU CAN DO

• Review the draft amendments and meet the project team.
• Share your feedback and final comments.
• View online resources and draft documents ahead of time via Engage Fairfax.

You can submit your written feedback and questions online through several official channels provided by the City of Fairfax:

1. Submit on the Engage Fairfax Platform
The primary hub for this project is the Engage Fairfax Small Area Plan Zoning Page. On this platform, you can:
• Post directly to the open forum topics.
• Ask questions on the project Q&A board, where city staff actively respond to resident inquiries.

2. Email the Project Manager Directly
If you prefer to submit formal written text or detailed documentation, you can email the city's project manager, Amy Lynne Denny, directly at [email protected].

3. General Zoning Contact
For general questions regarding the city's zoning administration or formatting concerns, you can also reach the city's Zoning Division via email at [email protected] or by calling 703-385-7820.

Clarification: Request for Donated Baked Goods

I recently posted in a local Buy Nothing group asking whether anyone would be willing to bake something for me to use on September 6. The baked goods were intended for a campaign-related event, and anything donated will be properly recorded at its fair-market value and reported as an in-kind campaign contribution.

Because the group is a community page, I initially tried to keep the post itself free of campaign language and planned to provide the full details privately to anyone who expressed interest. However, I understand how leaving that information out of the original post could appear unclear or insufficiently transparent.

A constituent raised the concern that I should have disclosed the campaign purpose upfront. I appreciate her making that suggestion. Transparency is important to me, and that includes being willing to hear constructive criticism and make a correction when something could have been communicated more clearly.

The original post has been updated to clarify that the baked goods are being requested for a campaign-related event and will be treated as in-kind campaign contributions.
