Fairfax Boulevard BID and Partnership

The City of Fairfax Council created the Fairfax Boulevard Business Improvement District (BID) in May 2005 to stimulate new energy and development in the Route 50/29 business corridor. The District includes properties along Fairfax Boulevard and Lee Highway (Rt. 50/29), and parts of Main Street and Jermantown Road within the City’s limits. Commercial landowners within the BID are assessed a special tax to fund BID efforts.

The Fairfax Boulevard Partnership is the incorporated entity governing the BID. Its membership is comprised of all land and business owners within the BID. Its Board of Directors consists of nine landowners, nine business owners, and one chairman. The Board conducts monthly business meetings.

Partnership Mission for the BID: 

• Increase economic viability
• Create an identity for the Corridor
• Develop a Master Plan and Architectural Guidelines
• Improve the aesthetic environment
• Foster business development
