The inner core of Reston is about to join the ranks of areas in Fairfax County that have a Transportation Tax* levied. The Board of Supervisors is expected to take the recommendation of this RNAG committee and approve a tax in early 2017. If approved, it will take affect in 2018 on all residential and commercial property owners within Reston’s Transit Station Areas.
