Supervisors in Fairfax County ordered on Monday the creation of a multiagency “strike force” to combat neighborhood decay and code violations.
The board voted unanimously to organize a broad team of county staff that would focus on enforcement issues. The vote follows a public chastising of county departments by Lee District Supervisor Dana Kauffman at the board’s previous meeting. Kauffman, who is stepping down at the end of his term, blasted staff inaction that he said had allowed decaying properties in his district to languish.
