McLean park may be expanded

The Fairfax County Park Authority held a meeting Oct. 14 to discuss the possible acquisition of two acres of land, near the intersection of Old Dominion Drive and Dolley Madison Boulevard and adjacent to McLean Central Park, known as the Birge-Fadoul properties.

While the actual use of the properties would be determined through the standard master planning process, the Park Authority says this acquisition may permit the construction of additional park amenities within the park, such as expansion of the village green and improved access to existing park features. The acquisition would also increase the protected buffer for Dead Run and prevent intense redevelopment, according to an authority news release.

To view a presentation on the proposal and to e-mail your comments, visit www.fairfaxcounty.gov/parks/plandev/birge.htm. Public comment will be accepted until Oct. 24.
