Quantico Marine is state’s first coronavirus case Region braces as cases climb to 5 across Northern Va. By Jill Palermo
Times Staff Writer
Virginia’s first known case of the novel coronavirus appeared in the Prince William County over the weekend when a U.S. Marine who had recently visited Ethiopia tested positive on Saturday for COVID-19, military officials said. The Marine, who has not been identified, lived and worked mostly on the Marine Corps Base Quantico. He was hospitalized over the weekend at Fort Belvoir Community Hospital, where he was in isolation but said to be improving, hospital officials said Sunday. The Marine was the commonwealth’s first “presumptive positive” case, meaning his test result was awaiting confirmation from the Centers for Disease Control. The diagnosis was quickly followed by four more cases, all in Northern Virginia, which were announced Monday.
The Marine who was diagnosed with COVID-19 was treated at Fort Belvoir Community Hospital. The others included a City of Fairfax couple who had recently taken a cruise on the Nile River. The husband, who is in his 80s, was tested on Thursday, March 5, and his diagnosis announced Sunday, March 8. The man’s wife went into self-quarantine at home on Thursday but was hospitalized and tested Monday after developing “minor respiratory

illness symptoms,” the health department said in a news release late Monday night. The state’s remaining two cases, as of Tuesday, involved an Arlington resident in their 60s, who had also recently traveled outside the U.S., as well as a Spotsylvania man in his 50s, the health department said. The Spotsylvania patient developed fever, cough and shortness of breath and subsequently sought medical attention. His case was brought to the attention of the Rappahannock Area Health District, and testing for the novel coronavirus was done by the Division of Consolidated Laboratory Services in Richmond, the health department said. The positive test result came back on Monday afternoon. The patient is currently under medical care and is stable according to the physician providing care, the health department said. The announcement did not say how the Spotsylvania resident was thought to have contracted the virus. See CORONAVIRUS, page 2
New law eliminates school disorderly conduct charge
Prince William tops the state in students charged By Daniel Berti

Pam Northam, wife of Gov. Ralph Northam, visited a preschool class at Marumsco Hills Elementary in Woodbridge Friday, March 7. Virginia’s first lady read “When Spring Comes” to the students and had them pretending to be spring seedlings reaching for the spring sun. The governor’s budget pledged more than $95 million in new funds toward the Virginia Preschool Initiative, which will help Prince William County add a planned 20 new preschool classrooms next school year.

Prince William County had the largest number of students charged for school-based disorderly conduct from 2016 to 2018, according to a state report. But a bill approved by the Virginia General Assembly this year will likely change how student misbehavior is handled in schools. The bill, sponsored by state Sen. Jennifer McClellan, D-9th, prevents students from being charged with disorderly conduct if they misbehave at school or on the school bus. Disorderly conduct is a Class I misdemeanor under Virginia law, punishable with up to 12 months in jail and a fine of up to $2,500. Virginia law currently contains a separate disorderly conduct charge that applies specifically to students who disrupt school or school-sponsored activities. McClellan’s bill effectively removes that charge from the state code in an effort to stem the flow of students from Virginia’s public schools to the state’s criminal justice system. The bill now heads to Gov. Ralph Northam’s desk for final approval.

CORONAVIRUS, from page 1 With the exception of the Fairfax couple, the cases are not related. But the overall risk to Northern Virginians “remains low,” the health department said.
Quantico schools close for cleaning
The Quantico diagnosis prompted base officials to close the base’s two schools – Crossroads Elementary and Quantico Middle and High School – on Monday and Tuesday for extra cleaning. The base itself has been placed on operating status “Code Yellow,” which means employees are still expected to report for work. Unscheduled leave is authorized and “reasonable delays for reporting for work are excused,” according to a base announcement. The schools, operated by the U.S. Department of Defense Education Activity, serve about 1,000 students who live on base with their families. “The health and well-being of our students and staff are our top priority. We will continue to work collaboratively with the MCB Quantico Command and health officials who confirm the health threat remains low,” base officials said in CONDUCT, from page 1 The effect of the change will likely be felt in Prince William County, where the number of students charged as a result of school-based incidents has led the state in recent years. Starting in 2016, the Virginia Department of Juvenile Justice began collecting information about juvenile charges filed specifically by school resource officers and school officials. Prince William police logged 212 school-based disorderly conduct charges between 2016 and 2018 – the highest number of any Virginia locality during that time, according to a January 2019 DJJ report. Black students in Prince William County schools were disproportionately charged with school-based disorderly conduct, according to DJJ data obtained via Freedom of Information Act request. Between 2017 and 2019, black students accounted for half of all school-based disorderly conduct charges in Prince William County, despite making up only 20% of the school system’s total population. Additionally, the data show the total number of school disorderly conduct charges levied against Prince William County students more than doubled between 2018 and 2019, from 56 to 125.
Local data reflects statewide charges
The data on school-based disorderly conduct charges filed in Prince William County mirrors that of the state, according to report compiled by the Legal Aid Justice Center in October 2019. The report showed that 62% of the state’s school-based disorderly conduct complaints were filed against black students even though they make up only 22% of Virginia’s school population. “This is a charge that is applied heavily to black students, and black girls in particular, at disproportionate rates to their white peers,” said Amy Woolard, an attorney for the Legal Aid Justice Center in Charlottesville.

in Virginia code, typically involves any disruptive behavior that can’t be charged as something else. In one case, a Virginia student was charged with disorderly conduct for listening to loud music on a school bus. In another instance, a student was charged for cutting in line in the cafeteria, Woolard said. “What we have is a whole group of kids in a school building, surveilled by law enforcement, who are at times annoying or causing inconvenience or disruption. This low-level behavior should not be criminalized, especially for kids,” Woolard said. “That doesn’t mean it shouldn’t be addressed, but it shouldn’t be addressed with an arrest and a criminal charge.” Rev. Cozy Bailey, president of the Prince William NAACP, said there has been a noticeable increase in the number of black and African American students in Prince William County schools referred through School Resource Officers to the justice system over the last few years. But until now, there hasn’t been any statistical evidence to support the claim. “The anecdotal evidence we have indicates a rise over the past couple of years of people who come to us and tell us, you know, ‘My child was referred through the SRO to the justice system,’” Bailey said. “It creates the anecdotal evidence that gives us the sense that there is a problem here in Prince William County.” As an example, Bailey referred to a 2016 incident at Graham Park Middle School in which a 14-year-old black student was charged for stealing a 65-cent carton of milk in the school cafeteria. The student maintained he initially forgot to pick up his milk and returned to the lunch line to retrieve it. A school resource officer charged him with disorderly conduct and petit larceny. A Prince William County judge ultimately dropped the charges. “He ended up in the justice system because of that,” Bailey said. “A middle school student referred to the justice system over a carton of milk is ludicrous. And this was an African American youth.” Prince William County Police Department spokesman 1st Sgt.
Jonathan Perok said the department typically encourages the schools to handle incidents without police involvement. But, he said, some matters require police intervention. “Disorderly conduct can cover different incidents, unlike other charges that are somewhat more specific. These types of incidents can include involvements in [fights] and even in some of our threats-of-violence cases,” Perok said. “The cases can go through the court process, but most are handled unofficially through diversion programs.” All school resource officers assigned to Prince William County schools are sworn Prince William County police officers. The county bolstered its SRO ranks in recent years in response to high-profile school shootings around the U.S. The police department’s SRO unit currently has 36 uniformed officers assigned to the county’s middle and high schools as well as five who cover elementary schools. Prince William County School division spokeswoman Diana Gulotta declined to comment on the number of students charged with schoolbased disorderly conduct in local schools, noting the school division is not involved in reporting that category of incidents to the state. School Board Chairman Dr. Babur Lateef said he had not seen the data regarding Prince William students

charged with disorderly conduct for school-based incidents but is concerned about a trend toward criminalizing student misbehavior. Lateef said there needs to be “a community conversation” about the issue. “My concern is, are we criminalizing things that were not criminalized before,” Lateef said. “…Forgiveness is an important part of our culture, and if we’re not going to forgive our kids, who are just learning to be grownups, what are we teaching them?” Rev. Keith Savage, a community activist and senior servant at First Baptist Church of Manassas, said he’s concerned about school divisions’ “over-reliance” on law enforcement for disciplinary actions among black and brown students. Savage said disorderly conduct matters are better handled in the schools and should not be the purview of local law enforcement. “Senator Jennifer McClellan’s bill is a welcomed call to reexamine the purpose, fairness and effectiveness, or lack thereof, of the school systems increasingly relying upon law enforcement and SROs in our public-school systems, including in Prince William County,” Savage said. “It is a reminder that the courtroom is not a place for school discipline.” Reach Daniel Berti at dberti@ fauquier.com

County turnout surged on Super Tuesday By Daniel Berti
Times Staff Writer
On the surface, Super Tuesday was a sleepy election day for Prince William County. Election officials at polling stations across the county reported no long lines and a slow, steady stream of voters arriving to cast their ballots. But as the results trickled in, it became apparent that Virginia – and Prince William County – had seen a major surge in voter participation compared to the 2016 Democratic primary. Statewide, voter turnout increased by 9% over 2016, shattering Democratic primary voting records. And in Prince William County, some voting precincts saw turnout increase by as much as 11%, with many more topping the 9% statewide average increase, according to the Virginia Public Access Project. Turnout for the primary in Virginia was 23% in 2020, compared to 14% in 2016 and 20% in 2008. A total of 70,562 votes were cast in Tuesday’s primary by Prince William voters – about 29,000 more than the 41,440 cast in the 2016 Democratic primary. Former Vice President Joe Biden placed first in Virginia and in Prince William County capturing 53% of the statewide and county vote. Biden won every voting precinct in Prince William County but one – Yorkshire, outside Manassas Park, which went to Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders. Sanders did slightly better in Prince William than he did statewide, winning 26% of the vote, compared to 23% overall. Former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg came in third place in Prince William County with 10% of the vote. Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren placed fourth in Prince William County with 8% of the vote. David Pala, former executive director of the Prince William County Democratic Committee, said the big bump in turnout is further evidence of effective grassroots organizing by county Democrats in recent years. Pala served as director from 2017 until November 2019. “There have been more volunteers and more engagement every year,” Pala said. “It’s huge.” Asked whether some Republicans may have voted in the Democratic primary, Pala said it was “likely,” but said detailed voter information from the primary wouldn’t be available for several months. Until then, it’s only speculation, Pala said. “I know from canvassing in 2017 and 2019, many suburban voters have been breaking away from the Republican party,” Pala said. “People are looking for someone they feel comfortable voting for as an alternative to President Trump.” Pala now serves as an aide to state Sen. Jeremy McPike, D-29th. Collin Robinson, current chair of the Prince William County Demo-
cratic Committee, said the county started seeing increased voter turnout beginning in 2017, a pattern that has continued in 2018, 2019 and now in 2020. “We think the increased turnout has helped us,” Robinson said. “I don’t see any reason that our voter turnout will slow down. We’re going to continue to push voter registration throughout the county.” County Republican Chairman Bill Card said the level of enthusiasm for the Democratic primary in the county, and statewide, was surprising. “On the Republican side, we won’t be taking anything for granted,” Card said. “While Republicans generally do come out to vote in presidential years, we need to vastly overperform 2012 and 2016 in order to carry Prince William County in 2020.” Card said he expects voter turnout from both Republicans and Democrats to be high in the November general election. “Even though President Trump didn’t have a credible opponent, Republican voter turnout in those states that had Republican primaries this year has surprised everyone as well. That indicates that our base is behind the president and stirred up,” Card said. Prince William County Office of Elections spokesman Matt Wilson said voter turnout across the county ranged from a low of 20% to a high of 29% in some precincts, a substantial increase from turnout in the 2016 primary. “The increase in turnout didn’t come as a surprise,” Wilson said. “There were a lot of candidates that people could vote for.” Looking forward to the November general election, Wilson said he wouldn’t be surprised to see overall turnout in the county reach 80%. “I have no reason to suspect turnout will lower than 2016,” Wilson said. Voting precincts in the eastern end of the county registered the highest change in voter turnout between 2016 and 2020, according to a VPAP analysis of voter turnout. Leesylvania, Cardinal, Montclair, Yates Ford and Lynwood voting precincts saw voter turnout increase by more than 11% from 2016. Yates Ford saw an 11.9% increase in voter turnout compared with 2016, the highest in the county. Yates Ford is a semi-rural district located east of Manassas City. A Democrat has not won any recent election in the precinct. Del. Danica Roem, D-13th, represents Yates Ford. She was outvoted by her Republican opponents in the precinct in 2017 and 2019. “It’s one of my toughest precincts,” Roem said. Roem said the precinct is demographically less diverse than most other precincts in her district but that the Democratic party has been making inroads in the area in recent years.
Super Tuesday Turnout: 2016 vs. 2020
About 23% of Virginia voters cast ballots in the March 3 Democratic presidential primary, beating turnout in the 2016 primary by 9 percentage points. In Prince William, voter turnout was up in nearly every precinct. The five precincts with the highest boosts in turnout are highlighted: Yates Ford: ▲ 11.9% Lynwood: ▲ 11.5% Montclair: ▲ 11.1% Cardinal: ▲ 11%
Leesylvania: ▲ 11.1%
Source: VPAP “With turnout in Yates Ford this year, something unprecedented happened. It seems like every Democrat who lives in Yates Ford showed up to vote,” Roem said. Looking ahead to the general election, Roem said she is confident that whoever the Democratic presidential nominee is, they’ll likely win
in Prince William County. Roem went on to say that the Yates Ford precinct could be a bellwether for the entire state. “If the Democratic nominee wins Yates Ford, you can call Virginia immediately,” Roem said. Reach Daniel Berti at dberti@ fauquier.com
NOTICE OF PROPOSED REAL PROPERTY TAX INCREASE
The Prince William County Government proposes to increase property tax levies.
1. Assessment Increase: Total assessed value of real property (commercial and residential), excluding additional assessments due to new construction or improvements to property, exceeds last year’s total assessed value of property by 4.13 percent. 2. Lowered Rate Necessary to Offset Increased Assessment: The tax rate which would levy the same amount of real estate tax as last year, when multiplied by the new total assessed value of real estate with the exclusions mentioned above, would be $1.0804 per $100 of assessed value. The rate will be known as the “lowered tax rate.” 3. Effective Rate Increase: The Prince William County Government proposes to adopt a tax rate of $1.1700 per $100 of assessed value. The difference between the lowered tax rate and the proposed rate is $0.0896 per $100 or 8.29 percent. This difference will be known as the “effective tax rate increase.” Individual property taxes may, however, increase at a percentage greater than or less than the above percentage. 4. Proposed Total Budget Increase: Based on the proposed real property tax rate and changes in other revenues, the total budget of Prince William County Government will exceed last year’s by 8.18 percent. A public hearing on the effective rate increase will be held on April 14, 2020 at 8:00 p.m. in the Board Chamber of the McCoart Administration Building, 1 County Complex Court, Prince William, Virginia. All interested individuals and groups are encouraged to attend and to submit comments. Sign-up sheets will be available in the atrium at 6:30 p.m. on April 14, 2020 for persons wishing to speak. Additional information regarding this public hearing is available from the Clerk to the Board of County Supervisors at 703-792-6600.

8 big things: Virginia lawmakers wrap up historic 2020 session By Graham Moomaw Virginia Mercury
As the overtime Virginia General Assembly session dragged into its final hours Sunday afternoon, Lt. Gov. Justin Fairfax told senators that math was not working in their favor. Given all the legislation on which to vote, and the hours remaining before a 6 p.m. deadline, Fairfax said, the chamber could spend about seven minutes on each bill. At the pace things were going, he said, “A lot of stuff is going to die.” Some did. A bill mandating paid sick days wasn’t brought to a vote before the legislature adjourned, a move that came as the state deals with its first two confirmed cases of the novel coronavirus COVID-19. But lawmakers are preparing to officially close the books on a historic, action-packed legislative session as Democrats used their hardwon majorities to overhaul decades’ worth of state policy enacted under Republican control. The legislature passed most of the gun-control bills Gov. Ralph Northam (D) called for after last year’s mass shooting in Virginia Beach; ratified the Equal Rights Amendment and lifted restrictions on abortion access; made Virginia the first Southern state to adopt sweeping anti-discrimination protections for LGBTQ people; and took steps to elevate workers’ rights in a state known for being friendly to big business. The legislature was scheduled to approve the two-year state budget on Thursday, March 12. Lawmakers finished up the bulk of their work Sunday, March 8, around 5 p.m. and announced they’ll return March 12 to finish the budget and appoint judges. Relegated to minority status, Republican leaders have warned the ambitious Democratic agenda will have unintended consequences, potentially jeopardizing the state’s economy and reputation for moderate politics. But with unified Democratic control, many policy debates came down to a choice between incremental progress or bolder change. On several big-ticket issues, those discussions came down to the final two days of the session as legislators negotiated details and took final votes to pass legislation and send it to the governor. Here’s what lawmakers worked out in the hectic, two-day finale to the 2020 session.
Minimum wage
Lawmakers struck a deal late Saturday night to raise the state’s minimum wage to $12 over the next three years, with a built-in process for potentially going higher to the $15 wage many Democrats campaigned on. The compromise bill increases the wage to $9.50 an hour on Jan. 1; $11 in 2022; and $12 in 2023. It also calls for a study of a regional minimum wage – an approach proposed by lawmakers in
the Senate. After that study is complete, lawmakers would vote in 2024 whether to continue increasing the wage to $13.50 in 2025 and $15 in 2026. “This legislation is for people who clean our hotel rooms, our offices, long after we have gone home to be with our families,” said Del. Jeion Ward, D-82nd, of Hampton, who carried the legislation in the House of Delegates.
Marijuana decriminalization
Just a few years after marijuana arrests in the state hit a 20-year high, lawmakers voted to decriminalize simple possession. That means an offense currently punishable by jail time and a $500 penalty could soon be reduced to a $25 civil fine similar to a traffic ticket. “This means close to 30,000 people a year will no longer be labeled as criminals and no longer will suffer the negative repercussions of a criminal conviction,” said Sen. Adam Ebbin, D-30th, of Alexandria, who carried the legislation in the Senate.
Driver cards for immigrants
Virginia lawmakers voted Saturday to grant driver privilege cards – but not full-fledged licenses – to undocumented immigrants. “I cannot tell you all how important this is for about 300,000 people living in Virginia,” said Sen. Scott Surovell, D-36th, who represents part of Prince William County. “This bill is going to change people’s lives.” Currently, undocumented immigrants are not able to get licenses, leading many to simply drive without one. Lawmakers framed the proposal as a way to allow immigrants living here to take care of their basic needs while also improving public safety by ensuring everyone on the road has passed a driving test and is insured.
Virginia Clean Economy Act
Lawmakers wrapped up negotiations Friday on a landmark bill designed to make Virginia’s electric grid carbon-free by 2045 while also incorporating stronger protections for electric utility ratepayers. Advocates described the final version — the result of a session-long push by clean energy and environmental groups to reach a compromise acceptable to the state’s powerful electric utilities, which continue to have allies in both parties in the Senate — as the most progressive climate legislation to come out of the South. The central pillars of the bill include a goal of making the electric grid carbon-free by midcentury, ambitious targets for solar and wind development, binding standards for utilities’ renewable energy portfolios and energy efficiency, and loosened restrictions on distributed generation like rooftop solar.
Guns
Two unresolved pieces of Northam’s gun policy agenda cleared the General Assembly Sat-
Activists celebrate the success of a bill allowing undocumented immigrants to legally drive in Virginia. Pictured with supporters (from left) are state Sen. Jennifer Boysko, D-33rd, Scott Surovell, D-36th, and Del. Alfonso Lopez, D-49th. urday, March 7, allowing Northam the opportunity to sign seven of the eight bills backed heading into the session. The final two bills would require criminal background checks on all gun sales and restore the state’s former one-handgun-a-month rule. On both bills, the House agreed to more moderate approaches favored by the Senate. The background checks bill — a top priority Democrats and gun-control advocates have championed for years — would close the so-called gun show loophole that allows private gun sales with no criminal history check on the buyer.
Casinos, sports betting, Rosie’s
Virginia lawmakers on Sunday gave final approvals to a pair of bills legalizing casinos and sports betting after a last-minute fight over whether the state should allow bets on college games involving Virginia teams. In the end, lawmakers chose to exclude Virginia colleges and universities from the new sports betting market, bowing to concerns raised by higher education leaders who said they want to shield student athletics from gambling’s influence. Colonial Downs Group – the company that owns the New Kent County horse racing track and several satellite facilities with off-track betting and slots-like historical horse racing machines – won a concession in the bill raising the statewide cap on how betting machines it can operate. The company is currently limited to 3,000 machines, but the bill would allow another 2,000, with up to 1,650 machines at a facility planned for Dumfries. Colonial Downs requested the additional machines to protect it
from the financial hit it could take when casinos open. Each time a city approves a casino referendum, Colonial Downs would get 600 more machines, up to the 2,000-machine limit.
Confederate statues
Cities and counties around Virginia will be allowed to remove the Confederate monuments they own and maintain under legislation the General Assembly sent to Northam Sunday. The vote comes two and a half years after a fatal white supremacist rally in Charlottesville around a statue of Confederate Gen. Robert E. Lee, which the city was blocked from taking down under a state law protecting war memorials. “It’s a huge step, but it’s just one more step in a long process,” said Del. Sally Hudson, D-57th, of Charlottesville. “In the short term what it means is this decision making will go back to Charlottesville where it belongs.”
Collective bargaining
Local governments will be allowed to engage in collective bargaining with their employees under legislation that passed Sunday. The bill falls far short of a proposal pushed by labor unions that the House approved last month, which would have mandated both the state and local governments to bargain with employees who organize unions. Virginia is one of three states where collective bargaining with public employees is outlawed. A compromise negotiated between the two chambers includes language that would allow public workers to force their local governing boards to take an up-or-down vote on the issue.

Police seize 63 chickens, charge man for cockfighting A Manassas man was arrested last week after two dogs and 63 chickens were seized from a home police say was being used Arwin Garcia to raise, train and Pingol, 35, of house roosters Manassas for cockfighting, which is illegal in the United States. The animals were seized on Thursday, Feb. 6, when police executed a search warrant at 9006 Ellsworth Road, a residence near the intersection of Wellington Road and Freedom Center Boulevard, according to First Sgt. Jonathan Perok, a police department spokesman. Arwin Garcia Pingol, 35, was arrested Tuesday, March 3, on 38 counts of felony animal fighting in connection with the incident, Perok said in a news release. The number of counts matches the number of roosters seized from the property because only roosters are used for fighting. “The other birds were seized because, although not involved in physical fighting, they are used to breed and produce offspring used in fighting and for keeping certain bloodlines intact,” Perok said. A tip from the community alerted law enforcement to possible activity related to animal fighting at the residence: a three-bedroom home on a 1-acre lot in the Manassas area of Prince William County, according to tax records. After searching the property and investigating, police found many of the chickens being kept in a manner consistent with preparation for fighting, although most were not injured, Perok said Wednesday. “None had to be euthanized. Overall they appeared to be healthy,” Perok said. “They were mostly removed because of the conditions they were in. A lot of unsanitary conditions.” Police also found paraphernalia used in chicken fighting, including “gaffs” and “sparring muffs,” Perok said. Gaffs are long, sharp “dagger-like attachments” placed on chickens’ feet. Sparring muffs are sometimes referred to fowl “boxing gloves.” Both are used in cockfighting, which the ASPCA calls “a blood sport in which … roosters specifically bred for aggression are placed beak to beak in a small ring and encouraged to fight to the death.” No animal fighting is believed to have occurred on the Manassas property, Perok said. The chickens and the two dogs, both Great Pyrenees or mixed breed, were removed due to inadequate care and were not involved in the alleged fighting activity, Perok said in a news release.

RappCats is a private, non-profit organization that rescues, cares for, and finds loving homes for abandoned, abused, neglected, injured, and homeless cats and kittens throughout Rappahannock County. We operate the RappCats Adoption Center, a cage-free, no-kill facility that is the only state-approved cat shelter in Rappahannock County. RappCats is operated by volunteers and funded through donations alone. The Rappahannock County Animal Shelter is funded only for dogs so our rescue work and care for needy cats and kittens is critical. We hope you can make room in your loving home for one of our wonderful kitties who are available for adoption. Please call 540.987.6050 or email adopt@rappcats.org for more information and to schedule your visit.

I’m a loving, affectionate, entertaining, neutered, one-year old male kitty. I love to play and roll around hoping you’ll pet my soft tummy. I was a beloved pet raised from a kitten but sadly my owners could no longer keep me. Won’t you please give me a loving home?

Removing the ban on food assistance for felons is long overdue
Letters to the Editor
How students feel the effects of high school overcrowding I am writing in response to the article, “Process to name 13th high school begins with March 26 community meeting,” published March 5. Reading this article, I was surprised to find out that there will be a new high school opening in 2021. As a student who attended both Forest Park and Charles J. Colgan Sr. high schools, I have seen the overpopulation in Prince William County first hand before new schools open. When I attended Forest Park, I remember it being overcrowded to the point where the building itself couldn’t hold any more classes indoors, so students had to take some classes outside in trailers.
Another big issue was the cafeteria lines. I recall waiting in the lunch line for two-thirds of my lunch period, which meant that I did not get to enjoy the full duration of my lunch period. Occasionally, the cafeteria would run out of dishes due to high demand for them. Many of these problems were a result of scarcity. However after Colgan was built, several of these issues were resolved. In my opinion, I have seen firsthand how adding new schools to combat overpopulation can improve learning experiences overall for students. VICTORIA BEECH Manassas
Banning landlords from refusing Section 8 renters helps our neighbors It is always sad to hear when someone has become victim to discrimination in their daily dealings throughout life, whether it be due to their race, ethnicity or socio-economic status. So, I am glad to see that there is a legislation passing that will disallow landlords to discriminate against possible tenants because of how they pay their rent. Finding adequate housing is a problem for many citizens in the U.S. and not being allowed to rent a place when you have good money
for it, is just crazy. These people already have a limited amount of options of where they can live because of prices and I believe if they can afford it, they should be allowed to rent where they please. Because you never really know a person or what they have been through to get where they are, you should always be empathetic and be willing to lend a helping hand to your neighbor. JAMES SMITH II Warrenton
Removing the ban of various welfare programs such as that of cash and food assistance for those who have felony drug charges is long overdue. Prisons are supposed to rehabilitate criminals into society as law-abiding citizens. However, the rehabilitative nature of the Virginia prison and justice system is nonexistent, as having a criminal record makes life almost impossible and receiving aid unattainable. The prison system and various state legislation make it difficult for these individuals, and oftentimes they can be seen as “lazy” by others in the community. The fact of the matter is that the various policies and systems not only set these individuals up to fail
but also decide measures such as who eats and who does not. In reality, it is actually cheaper to give these people assistance with money and food as opposed to continuing the cycle of incarceration. The continuing punishment of these individuals extends generations, as these individuals’ children often will not eat if their parents don’t. Government policies that have continuously punished the formerly incarcerated have long stood as barriers to forward progress for a vast majority of cities and populations. Hopefully, the end of the ban is a move in the right direction. KRISCEL BERRUM Dumfries
Mental health training, approved absences, will reduce stigma I am writing in response to the article titled, “Legislature approves mental health training for Virginia teachers,” published March 3. I was excited to see the General Assembly passed a bill to require mental health awareness training for full-time teachers. I also loved seeing that they are now allowing K-12 students excused absences for mental health struggles. The government recognizing that mental health is a public issue, and taking the initiative to address it, is a huge step forward in ending the mental health stigma. It may help students to know that what they consider to be a private trouble is experienced by others. It
can provide support for them so that they will feel less alone. One problem I noticed in this article was that it gives an incomplete representation of what mental illness is by depicting it as being brought on from extreme trauma. Mental health can often be from more than just trauma. Creating a single story of mental health can lead to some individuals to believe they do not deserve the same attention as others. Nevertheless, I was happy to see mental health issues addressed by the state government and highlighted in the newspaper. ALEXIS ATER Manassas
Bare minimum wage not keeping up with cost of living in Virginia In Virginia, minimum wage is $7.25. At the bare minimum, everyone should have their necessities met, but this is almost impossible to do so with the living wage that has been set by the state. It doesn’t make sense for the minimum wage in Virginia to be so low when the richest 20% of the population owns 84% of the wealth in the United States. In 2018 alone, 37.2 million people lived in food-insecure households. The in-
ability to afford food to eat because of how little someone is being paid should never be a concern. People deserve to have their basic necessities met if they are working for it. Increasing this wage can do that. Therefore, increasing the minimum wage will not only give lower income families more opportunities to purchase what they need but also provide relief in general. KASSEE SOSA Manassas
Removing race from marriage license applications is progress I am writing in response to the article, “Virginia legislature passes bill that removes race requirement in marriage records,” published March 3. I am very happy to see this bill that bans the requirement of people to disclose their race on their marriage record has passed. Seeing this bill being passed
reminded me that Virginia, along with other states, are still haunted by Jim Crow laws that passed so long ago. Some of these laws have been removed, but some like this are still in place, showing Virginia’s ugly past. Passing this bill shows that we are addressing laws that were influ-
enced by racial discrimination and led to racial segregation. Having to put down your race is unnecessary to be married and should not be a requirement for anything. It puts discrimination into something that is meant to be loving and sacred between two people, and their race is not relevant at any
point. I fully support the passing of this bill and I hope that for any more Jim Crow laws that are still present in Virginia to be removed to get rid of this stain in Virginia’s history. JOSHUA BROOKS Woodbridge

BLOCKED BY TWO BRANCHES
Colgan girls, Potomac boys basketball squads bumped off in state quarters

Western Branch bent without snapping twice in one night. The Bruins, who hail from Chesapeake, broke the long winning streaks of Colgan’s girls and Potomac’s boys basketball teams last Friday in a Class 6 state quarterfinal doubleheader at Hylton High. Colgan led by seven late before Western rallied for a 72-71 win. Against Potomac, the Western Branch boys took a 20-5 lead and held on as the Panthers cut the deficit to one. Western Branch prevailed 66-56. The greatest season in Colgan’s young history ended, while Potomac saw another promising state title run derailed a little too early. “They felt like they could win this game, and they’re just disappointed,” Colgan coach Fred Milbert said of his girls. “Feeling a little bit empty right now, but from where we were at the beginning of the season to where we are now is probably about four levels. The Sharks finished 21-6 with their first state berth, their first region championship (Class 6B) and their first district title (Cardinal). They will lose only two seniors to graduation, including one starter in Josie Rodas, who played arguably the best game of her career Friday. Potomac also finished another impressive run, going 23-4 with its 18th state berth. But the Panthers fell short of the high standard they’ve created by advancing to the state

semifinals 10 times in their history. “We’re living in an environment where it’s state championship or bust,” Potomac coach Keith Honore said. “Any other team gets here, they’re doing cartwheels. When we get here it’s status quo. [But] that’s the way it should be. That’s the way we want it.” So Potomac’s 14-game winning streak ended as Western’s boys (215) advanced to the state semifinals for only the third time in history, all in a four-year span. Western’s girls (22-4), meanwhile, ended Colgan’s 12-game winning streak by claiming their first state victory in history. Colgan seemed poised to move on, leading 67-60 late in the fourth quarter, but a frantic final two minutes erased the Sharks’ advantage. Western’s offensive rebounds crippled Colgan. Western Branch amassed an incredible 25 offensive rebounds in 32 minutes. “They’re very athletic,” Milbert said, explaining the Bruins’ offensive rebounds. “We weren’t as aggressive after the ball. “In the second half it was a huge factor,” he said, “because if we would have pulled a couple rebounds it’d have been a different story.” With Colgan leading 69-67, West-
“When you lose the last game of the season, there’s nothing a coach can say to you to take the sting away. I hope at some point they can sit back and reflect and say, ‘Man, we had a great season.’ Because we really did.” POTOMAC COACH KEITH HONORE
ern Branch had two key offensive rebounds. Jordin Lundy secured that second offensive rebound near the free-throw line and quickly tossed it back to Cayla Copeland, who calmly made a 3-pointer that gave the Bruins a 70-69 lead with 20 seconds remaining. Morgan Williams followed with a pair of free throws for a 72-69 lead, so even Rodas’ layup at the buzzer couldn’t tie the game as the Sharks fell 72-71. Nonetheless, Rodas had arguably the most entertaining performance of the night. In the second half alone, she went 5-for-6 on 3-pointers to help the Sharks turn a 32-24 third-quarter deficit into a 67-60 lead late in the fourth. Rodas finished with 17 points by often sinking 3-pointers from the south corner of Hylton’s gym. She made her fifth 3-pointer from that spot to break a 60-60 tie midway through the fourth quarter, causing a few Bruins fans to sprawl horizontally across the seats in the stands with flabbergasted respect.
“She kept us in the game,” Milbert said. “We knew she can do it. We’re glad she did. … She’s one of the big components of our season.” Junior forward Alyssa Andrews added 23 points, 16 rebounds and six assists for her 19th double-double this season, including five in a row during the postseason, while point guard Kennedy Fuller had 19 points. But Colgan desperately needed a third scoring threat in Rodas because Western Branch focused its defense on Fuller and Andrews.
Panthers also fall
Western Branch boys coach Paul Hall said he somewhat models his defense after the classic approach of Syracuse University coach Jim Boeheim. The Bruins used 1-2-2, 2-3 and 2-1-2 zone looks against Potomac, as well as a box-and-one defense focused on versatile forward Tyrell Harris. “The big thing was we choked off their 3-point shooters,” Hall said of the Panthers. “They shoot well, so we knew we had to.” “What they do, we hadn’t seen all year,” Honore said. “As a matter of fact, I don’t [know] any team that does what they do. Turnovers cost the Panthers against Western Branch as the Bruins often converted steals into fast break points, and they played phenomenally well on defense. That showed most midway through the fourth quarter after Potomac trimmed its 20-5 second-quarter deficit to 51-50. See BASKETBALL, page 14

Panther senior Manny White shined in his final game.
The Panthers composed a 12-2 run early in the fourth to close within one point of tying the game, but the Bruins responded with a layup, followed by a steal on each of the Panthers’ next four possessions. “We thought we had the momentum swing,” Honore said. “Then to give up four straight turnovers. I think that was the pivotal moment that did us in. “We had used so much energy trying to get back within a point” from a 20-5 deficit, he said. Bobby Johnson made the first steal in that fourth-quarter stretch to set up a pair of made free throws. Then Myles Evans’ back-to-back
steals and another Johnson steal helped make the score 58-50, effectively sealing Western’s victory with 2 minutes, 41 seconds remaining in the fourth. The Panthers made only 3 of 13 3-pointers (23 percent) to finish 15for-39 overall on their field goals (38 percent). Harris ended with 11 points, six rebounds, four assists and two steals, while Kejahn Rainey had 12 points and three assists with eight points from Lorin Hall. Manny White led Potomac with 15 points in the final game of his high school career. “He’s the major reason why we had the 14-game win streak,” Honore said. “We challenged him earlier in the year to provide more leader-
ship … and make good choices, and he nailed it. That gave us a chance.”
Another great season
The Panthers previously won state championships in 2016 (Class 5A), 2014 (5A) and 1995 (Group AAA) with additional AAA finals appearances in 2004, 1998 and 1997. “Our kids have to walk into that [Potomac] gym every day and they’ve got to see those banners hanging,” Honore said. “They want their piece of the legacy. They want their piece of the tradition. What coach wouldn’t love that? But “we’re a victim of our success,” he said. “People just expect us to be here. They don’t realize how hard it is.”
Legal Notice NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC OF VIRGINIA ELECTRIC AND POWER COMPANY’S REQUEST TO REVISE ITS FUEL FACTOR CASE NO. PUR-2020-00031 On February 21, 2020, Virginia Electric and Power Company (“Company” or “Dominion Energy Virginia”) filed with the State Corporation Commission (“Commission”) its application (“Application”) pursuant to § 56-249.6 of the Code of Virginia seeking a decrease in its fuel factor from 2.3254 cents per kilowatt hour (“¢/kWh”) to 1.7357¢/kWh, effective for usage on and after May 1, 2020. The Company’s proposed fuel factor, reflected in Fuel Charge Rider A, consists of both a current and prior period factor. The Company’s proposed current period factor for Fuel Charge Rider A of 1.8569¢/kWh is designed to recover the Company’s estimated Virginia jurisdictional fuel expenses, including purchased power expenses, of approximately $1.24 billion for the period July 1, 2020, through June 30, 2021. The Company’s proposed prior period factor for Fuel Charge Rider A of (0.1212)¢/kWh is designed to return approximately $80.7 million, which represents the net of two projected June 30, 2020 fuel balances. In total, Dominion Energy Virginia’s proposed fuel factor represents a 0.5897¢/kWh decrease from the fuel factor rate presently in effect of 2.3254¢/kWh, which was approved in Case No. PUR-2019-00070. According to the Company, this proposal would result in an annual fuel revenue decrease of approximately $392.6 million between May 1, 2020, and June 30, 2021. The total proposed fuel factor would decrease the average weighted monthly bill of a residential customer using 1,000 kWh of electricity by $5.89, or approximately 4.8%. In response to the Commission’s directive in the Order Establishing 2019-2020 Fuel Factor, Dominion Energy Virginia also provided testimony addressing how the Company monetizes the unused portion of its natural pipeline capacity portfolio on days when the system is not constrained. The Commission entered an Order Establishing 2020-2021 Fuel Factor Proceeding (“Order”) that, among other things, scheduled a public hearing for May 27, 2020, at 10 a.m. in the Commission’s second floor courtroom located in the Tyler Building, 1300 East Main Street, Richmond, Virginia 23219, to receive testimony from members of the public and evidence related to the Application from the Company, any respondents, and the Commission’s Staff. Any person desiring to testify as a public witness at this hearing should appear 15 minutes before the starting time of the hearing and contact the Commission’s Bailiff. Individuals with disabilities who require an accommodation to participate in the hearing should contact the Commission at least seven (7) days before the scheduled hearing at 1-800-552-7945. Through its Order, the Commission also required the Company to place its proposed fuel factor of 1.7357¢/kWh into effect on an interim basis for usage on or after May 1, 2020. Copies of the public version of all documents filed in this case are available for interested persons to review in the Commission’s Document Control Center located on the first floor of the Tyler Building, 1300 East Main Street, Richmond, Virginia 23219, between the hours of 8:15 a.m. and 5 p.m., Monday through Friday, excluding holidays.

A copy of the public version of the Company’s Application also may be obtained, at no cost, by written request to counsel for Dominion Energy Virginia, Paul E. Pfeffer, Esquire, Dominion Energy Services, Inc., 120 Tredegar Street, Richmond, Virginia 23219. If acceptable to the requesting party, the Company may provide the documents by electronic means.

Peck, Clerk, State Corporation Commission, c/o Document Control Center, P.O. Box 2118, Richmond, Virginia 23218-2118.

PW Little Theatre brings ‘Sister Act’ to the Hylton Performing Arts Center Staff Reports The crew from Prince William Little Theatre will return to the Hylton Performing Arts Center for the next two weekends to perform “Sister Act,” a feel-good musical comedy based on the 1992 film by the same name. The plot of the musical involves a woman named Deloris Van Cartier who is placed in protection program after witnessing a murder. Police put her in the one place they are sure she won’t be found: a convent. Disguised as a nun, Deloris, a disco diva, finds herself at odds with both the rigid lifestyle and uptight Mother Superior. But using her unique dance moves and singing talent to inspire the choir, Deloris breathes new life into the church and community but, in doing so, blows her cover. Soon, the gang is giving chase, only to find them up against Deloris and the power of her newly found sisterhood. “‘Sister Act’ is filled with powerful gospel music, outrageous dancing and a truly moving story,” says an event press release. “It’s a sparkling tribute to the universal power of friendship. Sister Act is reason to rejoice.” The Prince William Little Theatre production is directed by Sharon Veselic and choreographed by Chrissy Mastrangelo. The music is directed by Sarah Jane Scott. The play is produced by Terri Ritchey and Becky Gould-Levine, and stage-managed by Natalie Foley, the release said. Prince William Little Theatre is a community theater organization based in Prince William County. Providing quality local community theater since 1984, the PWLT is a volunteer, nonprofit organization partly funded by grants from the Prince William County Park Authority, the City of Manassas and private contributions. PWLT provides quality community theater productions (musicals, plays, drama, comedy, and one-act performances) several times a year as well as fundraisers.

Get out your green St. Patrick’s Day Parade this Saturday in Manassas Staff Report The 21st Annual Greater Manassas Saint Patrick’s Day Parade will be held this Saturday, March 14, from 11 a.m. to noon in Old Town Manassas. Several local schools, nonprofits and businesses support the parade, which boasts a unique Irish flair with bagpipe bands, including the Alexandria Pipe and Drums, Irish dance groups, and members of the Ancient Order of Hibernians, according to an event press release. The parade route will begin at the intersection of Prescott Avenue and Quarry Road near Old Town Manassas and will follow Prescott Avenue

Suspenseful British mystery will keep you guessing Fauquier Community Theatre presents ‘Night Must Fall’ By Debra Smyers
Contributing Writer
Fauquier Community Theatre’s “Night Must Fall” is a psychological thriller and considered one of the best British mysteries from master playwright Emlyn Williams. It is suspense at its best and a must-see. The plot revolves around a wickedly charming bellhop who wins the confidence of an elderly invalid living in a calm 1930s English countryside. Thrills and chills, twists and turns are all abundant in this dark tale of suspense. “Night Must Fall” opens on Friday, March 13, and runs through Sunday, March 29, with nine performances as part of Fauquier Community Theatre’s 42nd anniversary season. The original production of “Night Must Fall” premiered May 31, 1935, at the Duchess Theatre in London and ran for 436 performances. The playwright Williams was a writer, dramatist and actor. He played the main character, Dan the bellhop, in West End and Broadway productions. He also wrote screenplays and worked with Alfred Hitchcock on “The Man Who Knew Too Much.” Fauquier Community Theatre’s production is true to the script with a very British flair. Director Peter M. Marsh says the talented cast was chosen for their ability to capture the essence of the English mystery. He should know due to his growing up watching lots of BBC period dramas; his mom was a big fan of “Mystery” on PBS. The play is set in Essex at the tail-end of England’s rigid class system and the characters all represent a facet of English society. Some of the roles are double cast. As for the main characters, Mrs. Bramson (Hilary Pierce, Lori McInnis) has locked herself away in her bungalow and shut out the outside world. Their transformations as actors portraying the older woman is
with uncanny believability. Olivia (Erin Coulter, Dawn Gaynor) is her more modern niece who finds herself longing to break free of the expectations traditional society would place on her. Hubert (Colt Fitzgerald, Eric Friedman) accurately represents the emerging English businessman who is just beginning to realize his worth in this newly reconstructed social order. Mrs. Terrence (Carolyn Cameron) brings to life her role of growing weary of doting on her wealthy employer and seeing Mrs. Bramson’s excesses for what they truly are. Dora (Carleigh Hopkins, Bevin Hester) is a charming by-product of the Roaring ’20s and unconstrained by traditional conventions and morals. Nurse Libby (Elizabeth Steimel, Kimberly Stierle) is a bubbly presence who finds meaningful purpose as nurses began to take on more responsibility for health care in the Interwar period. Inspector Belize (Wilson Johnson) from Scotland Yard is persistent in trying to investigate mysterious situations. Dan (Ben Rawlins) as Marsh explains, “Dan is … well he is Dan. Audiences will have to come see the show to see for themselves just who Dan is and figure out his complex character traits and what he represents.”
Talented cast and crew
The actors are talented and are involved in the arts in many ways. Rawlins has acted most of his childhood, in plays, musicals and film. At age 21, he is currently writing his own musical and an album. Hester is a junior at Colgan High School’s Center for Fine and Preforming Arts, in which she concentrates in theater performance. An aspiring Broadway actress, she was selected for the Governor’s School at Radford University for theater. Hopkins is the four-time recipient of the Best Actress award from the Virginia Theatre Association and the recipient of a Best Featured Actress nod from D.C. Metro Theater Arts. Pierce has been singing and dancing across the Fauquier Community stage for many years. She points out that “playing the severe, wheelchair-bound Mrs. Bramson has provided quite a change of pace, as well as a wonderful learning experience.” Coulter has been involved in more

Dan, played by Ben Rawlins, attempts to charm Mrs. Bramson, portrayed by Hilary Pierce. than 100 productions including in Los Angeles, and New York City spanning almost three decades as a director, actor, teacher and producer. She holds a Bachelor of Fine Arts in theatre from Carnegie Mellon and is the current director of theater at the Hill School in Middleburg. She humbly says, “Thanks to my genetic and Hill family for their love and support!” “Night Must Fall” is produced by Dianne Moss who has worked in community theater for more than 20 years. Costume mistress Amber L. Kiffney has placed the actors in period dress capturing the elegance of the era. Hair and makeup by Erin Briner enhance the character roles. Stage manager Mickalei Lindquist makes sure everything is in place and the period props add to the production. The drawing room set design by Molly Marsh transforms the stage and brings the audience to England for the evening. While many people worked on building the set, Doug Barylski and Todd Skiles are noted for the transformation from a bare stage floor to the British drawing room. A new lighting system at Fauquier Community Theatre has been designed by Brandon Gibson and adds to the artistic value of the production. Members of the crew have been nominated this year for competitive awards by the Washington Area Theatre Community Honors for their work on productions at Fauquier Community Theatre. Briner is listed in the category of Outstanding Makeup Design and Lindquist for Outstanding Costume Design. Skiles is nominated
for Outstanding Set Painting and Gibson for Outstanding Light Design. Audiences are used to seeing the director of “Night Must Fall” on stage at Fauquier Community Theatre, as Marsh has appeared in four plays and musicals recently. His acting skills have made Marsh a director who knows how to empower his cast especially in character development. “All cast members have done a wonderful job of bringing their characters to life,” he said. Marsh has been purposely careful not to disclose too much of the plot, however he does reveal that, “Night Must Fall” is a roller-coaster ride and doesn’t fit in just one niche. It is not a pure murder mystery or a pure drama. I call it an English drawing room murder drama-comedy. There is great character work in the show and the script is written to make the audience laugh in one moment and be horrified in the next. “Night Must Fall” opens on Friday, March 13, and runs through Sunday, March 29. Friday and Saturday performances are at 7:30 p.m., and Sunday matinees are at 2 p.m. Ticket prices are $16 for students and seniors and $18 for adults. Performances take place at the Vint Hill Theater on the Green located at 4225 Aiken Drive, Warrenton. Tickets for reserved seating may be purchased online at www.FCTstage.org, by emailing tickets@FCTstage.org, or calling 540-349-8760. While tickets are also sold at the door, reservations are highly recommended especially for opening night and matinees.

OBITUARIES Jennifer Lynn Norwood
Wyatt Charles Norwood
November 2, 1985 - February 14, 2020 Born November 2, 1985, Jennifer Lynn Norwood grew to become the epitome of what a woman should be. She was a loving wife and mother and always put family first. She loved elephants, animals, baking and, most of all, her family. Her greatest joy was spending time with the ones she loved. She was happily married to Joshua Norwood for over 18 years. She was a CNA until an injury to her shoulder forced her to stop working. She once again became a stay at home mom that always made sure the needs of her family were met with joy and love. She leaves behind a loving husband, as well as many family and friends. Jennifer is known for her generosity and love of others and will be remembered as a wonderful wife, mother, sister, daughter, and friend.
March 5, 2013 - February 14, 2020
RIP Babe!
Born March 5, 2013, Wyatt was taken too soon – before he was able to enjoy his 7th birthday. Wyatt was a model of everything good in the world – his innocence, creativity, passion for life, and friendliness was a light to everyone around him. His desire was to grow up to be a YouTuber and he had the talent to be the best one! Anyone who met Wyatt couldn’t help to fall in love with him. He loved books, friends, animals, videos, Toy Story, and, of course, Mr. Potato Head. This precious light was extinguished too soon. He will be missed by everyone who knew him, and leaves behind friends , family and a father who adored him. Wyatt you were the light in my eyes, my heart and soul, the greatest son anyone could ask for!
You are my heart and soul forever!
RIP Chunky baby!
I love, miss, and need you so bad!
You are my universe, my heart and soul, my reason for living ! I love, miss and need you more than the world could ever know.

TOWN OF HAYMARKET NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING PROPOSED REAL PROPERTY TAX INCREASE Notice is hereby provided pursuant to Section 58.1-3321 of the Code of Virginia that the Town of Haymarket Virginia proposes to increase property tax levies for the Fiscal Year 2020-2021. 1. Assessment Increase: Total assessed value of real property, excluding additional assessments due to new construction or improvements to property, exceeds last year’s total assessed value of real property by 7.7%percent. 2. Lowered Rate Necessary to Offset Increased Assessment: The tax rate which would levy the same amount of real estate tax as last year, when multiplied by the new total assessed value of real estate with the exclusions mentioned above, would be $0.135 per $100 of assessed value. This rate will be known as the “lowered tax rate.” 3.
