Fairfax County Department of Transportation (FCDOT) will hold a community input meeting on Fairfax Connector proposed service changes that aim to enhance service for customers. The meeting will be held Tuesday, Feb. 18 at 7 p.m. in the cafeteria at Eagle View Elementary School, 4500 Dixie Hill Road in Fairfax. Transit access: Fairfax Connector 605, 621 and 623.
