Summary

4010 University Drive (Tax Map 57-4-02-087-B) is a parcel in the CR Commercial Retail zoning district and Old Town Fairfax Historic Overlay District, located at the corner of University Drive and Sager Avenue. Pathway Homes, Inc. (agent: Molly Navanti) is seeking approvals to develop upper-story residential/mixed uses on the site, described in early planning staff reports as involving offices and fifteen affordable dwelling units with related support services. The project required two separate City Council approvals. First, on December 10, 2024, a Special Use Permit for upper-story residential/mixed uses was approved 4-3, with the approval capped at a maximum of 10 dwelling units. Then, on February 25, 2025, a Special Exception to increase the maximum density to 28 dwelling units per acre was approved unanimously (6-0). Conditions on the Special Use Permit include operational consistency with the application statement and plans, and the recording of a public access easement along University Drive and Sager Avenue prior to issuance of any zoning or construction permits.
