The Broyhill Crest Citizens Association was founded in 1952 with all of the residents of the then-completed portion of the development (24 families) as members of the Association. In April of 2009, the Constitution was updated by vote of the members are the Annual Spring Meeting, and the name of the BCCA was changed to the Broyhill Crest Community Association to highlight the primary goal of building a sense of community in our diverse neighborhood.
The Association monitors and appraises Fairfax County plans and policies, especially in the areas of public safety and zoning enforcement. The BCCA Board actively lobbies for our interests with our local government officials, both elected and appointed.
The BCCA joined the Fairfax County Federation of Civic Associations in May 1953. With 1,157 families, the BCCA is currently one of the largest associations in the County Federation.
