Fairfax Board
May Release
Planning Unit
Thinks Enough Time
Has Run for Adoption
OF Master Scheme

The new Fairfax Board Of
County Supervisors is thinking
about firing the county planning
commission unless it comes up
with a satisfactory master plan
in a hurry.
A Joint conference has been
called by the supervisors fol
January % ito discuss the status
Of the master plan and other
matters"
All Is members Of the planning
commission were appointed by
the former Board of County
Supervisors. Only two of the
former board members remain
on the new board. and a ma
jority of the new supervisors
campaigned on a master plan
platform.
Several supervisors and Keith
Price. who is chairman of the
planning commission, confirmed
reports of the dismissal move
nent.
Time Thought Ample
Master plan minded super
visors think the planning COM
mission has had ample time to
adopt a plan. Francis Dodd
McHugh. planning consultant,
presented his master plan rec
ommendation to the planning
commission in the fall of 1854.
One phase of the master plan
covering sewers has been ap-
proved by the planning COM
mission. Mr.. Keith said he
would tell the supervisors at the
conference when they could ex-
pect other stages of the plan.
The most controversial portion
deals with population density.
The McHugh plan would con-
fine most close, urban-type de-
velopment to the eastern third
of the county and restrict de-
velopment in the remainder to
lots of 8 to 5 acres.
Even a stepped-up time table
may not diminish the hopes of
some new supervisors for another
planning commission. They have
discovered that it is the planning
commission-not the supervisors
that adopts a master plan.
The supervisors have authority
to approve. or disapprove, but
cannot draft a master plan in
dependently. according to county
legal advisers.
Legal Snag Appears
In their discussions about re-
placing the planning commission.
the new supervisors have struck
a snag: The general planning
law under which the planning
commission was set up specifies
that appointments are for four
years. and makes no provision
for abolishing the commission
II the supervisors tried to rescind
the resolution establishing the
planning commission, they might
affecto the validity of existing
zoning regulations. they learned.
There might he another way,
however. Several supervisors
have located an Enabling Act
permitting counties that meet
certain requirements to set up a
planning commission. Some SUI
pervisors think it might be pos
sible to re-establish the planning
commission under this act-and
appoint new members-without
running the risk Of invalidating
coming regulations. Terms of
the new planning commission
could be set up to coincide with
those Of the supervisors.
