Loudoun County’s rail service districts were established on December 5, 2012 to fund the construction and maintenance of the stations, rail line, and rail related facilities and services. All parcels in the districts, residential and commercial, have a special property tax rate for funding of the rail. Tax collection for the districts is for Tax Year 2013 and future years.The boundaries of the Metrorail Service District were defined using physical features such as major roads and streams within two miles of stations. In some cases, parcel boundaries were used to develop the tax district boundary. The Route 606/Airport and Route 772 station service districts were defined using half-mile radii around the four proposed rail stations in or near Loudoun County: 1) Route 772, 2) Route 606, 3) Dulles Airport, and 4) Route 28. These radii were used as approximate guidelines. At the time the districts were established, the districts encompassed primarily commercial land. Only a few existing residential units were included within these districts at the time the districts were established.**The features the boundaries follow may have been generalized due to scale and intended use.**</span></p></div>
