FIRE LANES

Picture


In accordance with provisions contained within the Virginia Statewide Fire Prevention Code, the Fairfax County Code, the Fairfax County Fire Prevention Code, and the Fairfax County Public Facilities Manual, parking in the designated fire lanes is against the law.

The Fairfax County Fire Marshal approved our fire lanes and signage.  Fire lanes are identified by yellow curbing, and there is one large sign erected at the entrance to Waterfront Road which states that no parking or standing is permitted in fire lanes at any time.
Enforcement 
The Fairfax County Police Department non-emergency phone number is 703-691-2131.
 
As a reminder, the Fairfax County Fire Marshal has determined the fire lanes are required and parking in these locations would create an obstruction for emergency vehicles. The Fairfax County Police Department has advised that fire lane offenses should be reported to them via their non-emergency phone number, noted above, and may be done so anonymously. Please avoid calling 911. The police have the authority to enter our Cluster and issue a ticket, and at their discretion, order towing of a vehicle after issuing a ticket.  If a vehicle is towed, the same police non-emergency phone number should be called for vehicle retrieval instructions.
 
It is every resident's legal right to call the police at their discretion if they observe a fire lane violation.  The Board will not be policing the common grounds for violations.  The vehicle owner, whether a resident or visitor, assumes all risks should they choose to park in violation of the fire lanes.  In addition to ticketing and towing, the vehicle owner may be subject to legal action should their offense result or contribute to injury by impeding emergency responders.  
 
Also be aware that if the police are called by a resident they may perform a sweep of the entire street when they arrive and take appropriate action against all fire lane violations. Again, this is at police discretion.
