- Fairfax has extended its personal property tax (or “car tax”) filing deadline until November 5.
Supervisors approved the extension due to the federal government shutdown. - The Road Shark Initiative, a program of increased visibility for traffic enforcement, begins again next
week. Road Shark aims to lower reckless driving incidents through more enforcement in areas that have
historically high accident rates. During the last wave of Road Shark, the Mason Precinct led the county
in traffic stops and warnings, but not in traffic tickets issued. According to the Mason Precinct
commander, the purpose is primarily to deter drivers, not to raise revenues or issue punitive fines. - The next meeting on Comprehensive Boundary Review, the program to rearrange the county’s school
boundaries, for the Woodson High School pyramid will be held on Tuesday, October 28 at Fairfax High
School from 6:30 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. both in-person and virtual.
