On January 24, 2012 the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors approved changes to sections of the Fairfax County Code which regulate towing. These changes to the code took effect immediately. You may read the complete text of the code here ( Towing Code w reg - 120124 - FINAL - clean.pdf [Adobe Acrobat PDF - 112.58 KB])
The most notable changes which you should be aware of are the maximum rates which towing companies may charge have been increased. Dominion Towing, the company who enforces the community parking regulations, has notified Mount Air that they have raised their towing rates to match the maximum allowed rates. Vehicles towed from the community for failure to displaying a valid Mount Air Parking Permit will be charged these rates.
In the Village of Mount Air, all vehicles must display a current Mount Air parking permit (hang tag) on the windshield, at all times. Between the hours of 7pm and 6am, any vehicle without a proper permit may be towed without notice. The minimum charge to release a vehicle is now $150 - $175.
Towing Rates
- $125 for vehicles up to 7500lbs. GVWR Gross vehicle weight
- $250 for vehicles with 7501lbs GVWR - 10000lbs. GVWR
- $500 for vehicles with GVWR 10001lbs. or greater
Allowable Additional Charges
- $25 add if 7pm-8am
- $25 add if towed on sat or sun
- $25 if towed on a holiday
*Only 2 of the three additional charges can be applied*
- No charge permitted for first 24 hours

Message from Mount Vernon District Supervisor, Gerry Hyland
Recently, there has been a rash of vehicle thefts in the Mount Vernon Magisterial District, especially in the Lorton community.
Captain Joe Hill, Commander of the West Springfield District Station, wants all residents, not just in the Lorton community but in all areas, to be aware of this and to take the following precautions:
- Do not leave an unattended vehicle running anywhere, even in your own driveway. Vehicles are being stolen from driveways while warming up on cool mornings. Never leave your car running unattended!
- Do not leave any valuables inside your vehicle. It is too tempting for thieves.
Together we can prevent auto theft.
Yours in public service,
Gerry Hyland |

On Tuesday, January 24, 2012 the 3d U.S. Infantry (The Old Guard) from Fort Myer will be in the Southwest area of Fort Belvoir Military Post doing training with their ceremonial cannon. Training is specifically for the Old Guard's Salute Guns Platoon, and WILL include occasional blank-shell firing of the guns between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m.
The southwest area of Fort Belvoir is across from Inlet Cove to the north, and Mason Neck to the west/southwest. To minimize sound intrusion, the cannon will fire to the south.
