Developer Contribution Policies
Since 2009, developer contribution policies have been adopted as part of small area plans (SAPs) to facilitate Plan recommended community amenities/improvements that mitigate impacts from development, in addition to what development projects are responsible for on their respective sites. The Department of Planning & Zoning regularly monitors the implementation of these policies to ensure that their application is meeting the intended goals, including analyzing impacts for each development project under review.
In July 2025, administrative adjustments were enacted to existing small area plan developer contribution policies as well as a recommended path forward for future small area plan developer contributions.
Information related to relevant small area plans and associated developer contribution policies can be found in the Plans in Active Implementation links below.

Joint City-ACPS Capital Planning Initiatives and Implementation
Successful communities incorporate civic and social infrastructure and services for residents of today and the future. All of the City’s recent small area plans identify the importance of integrating community facilities in Alexandria’s neighborhoods — such as schools, child care centers, recreation/ community centers, fire stations, libraries, and flexible theatre/performance space, among others.
The City and Alexandria City Public Schools collaborate on long range capital planning relative to school facilities and community services. Learn more about joint planning efforts and implementation.
