📰 News we're reading

• McLean Parking District Expansion Goes Before Fairfax County Supervisors (patch.com) — McLean residents along Felix Street may soon see tighter parking rules as Fairfax County supervisors move toward a public hearing on expanding Residential Permit Parking District 21 near McLean High School. The proposal responds to complaints about nonresident school-day parking and would cost about $1,300 for new signs, while supervisors also weigh a separate rezoning case in the Dranesville District.
