Basketball Court Closed Until Further Notice
Dear Lorton Valley HOA Residents,
Due to the consistent inability of players to follow the rules of no cursing, inappropriate behavior, and the constant amount of trash left on the court, the court is closed and off-limits until further notice. Do not climb the fence to use the court as this can cause injuries and damage to the structure.

Click Pay Additional Transactiion Charge
ClickPay is a third-party system to set up payments for monthly HOA assessments. You can go to the website or call ClickPay to set up deductions, pay by Credit Card or Debit Card or bank draft.
To avoid a $3.00 transaction fee, only sign up for e-check (ACH) as all other transactions will be charged $3.00 per event.
Request for Volunteers to Support Community
The HOA is Reaching Out.
The Lorton Valley Board of Directors is recruiting homeowners for volunteer participation in community activities. Several budgeted committees have vacancies and can use community members to lead or assist.
Social Committee - This committee is a HOA community favorite but needs additional volunteers to assist in the planning and operation of events, such as the Wine & Cheese Tasting, Community Cookouts, and Holiday events. Having a large pool of Committee members who bring diverse ideas and experience greatly benefits these events.
Communications Committee – Currently there are no members, and we would need at least 5 individuals for this committee. This committee oversees the Lorton Valley website and its functions including upgrades to the system via vendors. The committee reviews and updates information on the lortonvalley.com website for accuracy and completeness. There is a need for assisting with the writing and posting of a community newsletter.
Covenants Committee – This committee consists of a 5-member panel to review and enforce the Architectural Design and Maintenance Standards. Reviews and authorizes Exterior Modification Applications. This committee holds hearings for HOA members who have not corrected violation notices within the prescribed time to cure and may place monetary assessments on the homeowner. Currently, all 5 positions are filled, but a list of reserve individuals is great to have in the event of a vacancy or extended absence.
Grounds and Facilities Committee - Currently there is a need for 2 additional members. This committee is responsible for the review and repair/replacement of all HOA-owned property and landscaping. This committee works closely with the Board of Directors on maintenance issues and repairs, proposes budgets and reviews cost analysis for future improvements for the community.
The Lorton Valley Homeowners Association creates community peace of mind and through the volunteers from the community, these committees help bring everyone into the fold of the community. By reaching out to you, the resident of Lorton Valley, we hope to ensure strong relationships with all members of the community (and is a terrific way to meet your neighbors).

Extended Advisories |
Common Parking and Registration of Vehicle Code Enforcement
By Randy Kline on
June 17, 2026
I have had several inquiries about traffic questions on the Lorton Valley HOA property. The following Fairfax County regulations apply to all streets in Lorton Valley and are ticketable charges. The biggest difference is that on VDOT streets, the HOA is not allowed to tow, whereas on community-owned streets, vehicles can be towed (by contacting the community manager).
Any resident can contact the non-emergency number at 703-877-5600 for the police to come out and investigate. Here are just some of the most common items that are ticketable offenses.
1. Parking within 10 feet of a driveway
2. Parking on a sidewalk
3. Parking within 15 feet of a fire hydrant
4. Parking within 30 feet of a stop sign
5. Parking within 20 feet of an intersection
6. Unattended vehicles.
a) Unattended and not moved for 15 days. Must move 300 feet from this position after 15 days.
7. Expired/no safety inspection decal
8. Expired plates or no plates.
9. Parking in a marked fire lane.
These are the most common issues found on the Lorton Valley HOA property. You do not have to contact this office for the offence, as it is ticketable by county code; anyone can call the non-emergency number with the location, type of vehicle, color, and tag information. In the event that a vehicle is parked in a Lorton Valley parking space, please contact me for investigation and possible towing.
Every effort to use your garages and driveways to keep vehicles off the street should be taken.
Best Regards,
Randy Kline
