NVAHA 15 - Accomplishment #2 (2005 - 2010): NVAHA was appointed by Fairfax County Supervisor Cathy Hudgins to serve on the Tysons Land Use Task Force, a 36-member group representing a diversity of community interests and perspectives. The goal of the Task Force was to create a vision for the redevelopment of the 1,700-acre Tysons footprint, resulting in a transit-oriented destination, with a mix of uses and a balance of housing and jobs.
NVAHA has selected to chair the Affordable Housing Subcommittee of the Task Force, and successfully advocated for the adoption of a set of policies that required 20% of all residential development to serve affordable and workforce housing incomes. Learn more.
