Fairfax County, Va. ––If you live along the Occoquan Reservoir, there may be some changes coming that will dictate what you can do with your property.
Fairfax Water will hold a public meeting at 6:30 p.m. Thursday February 3 to discuss updates to their easement plans for those with homes along the body of water, which separates portions of Prince William and Fairfax counties.
Some of the new regulations awaiting approval prohibit residents from putting debris in the reservoir, requiring residents to plant vegetation along the shoreline to prevent erosion, and new regulations that permit stairs along the shoreline where grades are at 10 percent or greater.
Fairfax officials are accepting comments on the matter until Feb. 2. You can email them to [email protected].
