Herndon Considers Relaxing Downtown Parking Laws

The Town of Herndon’s Planning Commission wants your input on whether existing downtown parking requirements should be relaxed to better allow for mixed use developments.

Herndon’s parking requirements are stricter than those of Fairfax County and some other Northern Virginia jurisdictions.

The plan calls for redevelopment of the town’s parking lots as well as mixed-use developments, including residential uses of up to four stories.

The Town Council has asked for a recommendation from the Planning Commission on downtown parking that would accommodate a vibrant downtown competitive with other areas in the region.

Join the discussion at the Herndon Council Chambers Thursday, Aug. 21 at 3 p.m.
