From pasture to powerlines: Western Prince William landowners asking for their rural land to be replanned for data centers point to existing transmission lines that have already diminished the area’s rural character.

Driving down Pageland Lane west of Manassas, all that can be seen from a car window are rolling hills, forests, old farmhouses and a row of towering transmission lines. It’s an area that has remained largely untouched by new development – except for the electrical lines – even as the surrounding area has rapidly shifted.

But if some landowners on Pageland Lane get their way, that could change.

A dozen residents who live on the road, many of whom have been there for decades, are asking the county to redesignate their collective 792 acres of agricultural land to allow for up to 21 million square feet of new data centers. On May 19, they filed an application requesting that the board of county supervisors change their properties’ land-use designation from agricultural to “tech/flex” to allow for such development. They’re calling their plan the “PWC Digital Gateway.”

It’s been a tough school year for Prince William County schools’ more than 12,000 teachers and staff, most of whom put in extra hours and were exposed to greater risks because of the pandemic. The school board was expected to reward them this week with end-of-year bonuses of as much as $1,600 each.

The school board was set to discuss on Wednes-

day, June 16, a proposal to spend $20.2 million in year-end funds, or money that will be left over at the end of this fiscal year, to provide all employees a one-time pay boost to recognize “the extraordinary contributions and sacrifices made by all Prince William County Public Schools employees during the COVID pandemic,” according to the meeting’s agenda.

County takes steps to protect Thoroughfare, old cemeteries

All the included properties are along a 3-mile stretch of Pageland Lane between Va. 29 and Sudley Road within the county’s “rural crescent,” an area created in 1998 to put the brakes on suburban sprawl. The rural crescent contains about 53% of the county’s total landmass and generally limits development to single-family homes on 10-acre lots or larger.

Some other uses are allowed by-right, but not industrial facilities, such as data centers.

The properties at issue are non-contiguous, separated into three areas. One consists of 179 acres and borders Conway Robinson

The unincorporated Town of Thoroughfare is small but rich with history. It’s home to the Oakrum Baptist Church, which was founded by former slaves and remains in existence today. It’s also the former site of the North Fork School, which served children of color in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, as well as three areas where Union and Confederate soldiers clashed during the Civil War. The Prince William Board of County Supervisors took steps Tuesday to formally recognize that history and do a better job of trying to preserve it.

In separate unanimous votes, the board voted to spend $765,000 in surplus funds to pay for archeological and architectural surveys of the Thoroughfare area and to set aside about $540,000 for a future historic interpretive site that will share those findings with the public. The money will also fund an effort to better document and protect known historic cemeteries on private property across Prince William County.

The board also voted to explore creating a “historic overlay district” that could lay the groundwork for better protecting Thoroughfare’s historic sites and structures and its history as one of the first places in Northern Virginia settled by former slaves and Native Americans.

COVID-19 cases rise slightly, county reports 5 more deaths Staff Report COVID-19 cases in Prince William County, Manassas and Manassas Park remain low but rose this past week to an average of 15 a day, up from about eight a day during the previous week. Also, the county reported five more COVID-19 deaths after adding none the previous week.

The rise in cases and newly reported deaths comes about one month after Virginia’s universal mask mandated was lifted May 15, and about two weeks after the Memorial Day weekend holiday, when all social distancing and capacity restrictions expired. Still, COVID-19 infections per capita locally and across the state remain at very low levels.

Hospitalizations also continue to trend downward.

Meanwhile, the number of people vaccinated in the county and across the Northern Virginia region continues to creep upward. But the average number of vaccinations administered each day across Virginia is declining.

The youngest was in their 40s. Of the other four victims, one was in their 50s; one was in their 70s; and two were age 80 or older, according to VDH data.

The latest deaths bring Prince William County’s COVID-19 death tally to 504 and the health district’s to 562. That includes 47 City of Manassas residents lost to COVID since the pandemic began, as well as 11 lost from the City of Manassas Park.

Local deaths

There were just five local hospitalizations for COVID-19 in the past week, down from eight the previous week. They included those of one resident in their 20s, one in their 50s and one in their 70s.

The latest local fatalities include those of three men and two woman. Two were white and three were Latino. All were residents of Prince William County.

BONUS, from page 1 Under the proposal, all full-time employees would receive a one-time bonus of $1,600. The amount would be adjusted for those working parttime and for those whose employment began during the middle of the school year. The minimum one-time pay adjustment or bonus would be $500.

All active substitute teachers and staff, temporary employees and retired employees who earned a mini-

New cases

In the local health district, about 100 new cases were reported over the past week, up from 61 the previous week. They included 22 cases among kids ages 9 and under, all of whom are too young to be vaccinated, and 21 cases among kids and teens ages 10 to 19, according to VDH data. Kids must be 12 to be eligible for a vaccine.

Residents in their 20s reported 21 new cases, while residents in their 40s reported 19, according to VDH data.

Hospitalizations

mum of $1,000 this past school year would also receive a one-time pay adjustment of $500 under the plan.

Students and teachers wrapped up the current school year on Friday, June 11, ending an especially challenging year that began with most students learning remotely with the exception of a few hundred special needs students and those learning English as a second language, who began learning in person when the school year began on Sept. 8.

More students returned for in-person instruction gradually late last fall, with the youngest grades returning on a hybrid schedule from November 2020 through January.

All others were permitted return to in-person instruction two days a week in late February. Remote instruction continued throughout the school year, as some students learned from home three days a week and others remained fully remote.

For months, members of the school board have been pushing for hazard pay or a bonus to recognize staff’s efforts. During the school board’s June 2 meeting, Deputy Superintendent Keith Imon offered Superintendent Steven Walts’ proposal: a 2% across-the-board bonus for all employees. Imon did not include an overall cost of Walts’ plan. Walts could not attend the meeting because of a family event, Imon said.

School Board Vice Chair Lisa Zargarpur said Saturday, June 12, that the $1,600 bonus for full-time employees, with the $500 minimum for all employees, is preferred by the board because it provides everyone the same amount.

“We all struggled through this together and everyone had to do more and different work this year,” Zargar-

pur said. “The board feels strongly that this is the most fair approach. Part-timers and non-contracted employees will receive something as well.”

The Prince William Education Association, the local union for school division teachers and staff, weighed in on Walts’ proposal on Facebook earlier this week saying they “applaud” the idea of a bonus but did not agree with the 2% acrossthe-board approach. As an alternative, the PWEA suggested a bonus based on 2% of the average school division salary.

PWEA President Maggie Hansford issued a statement Saturday saying teachers and “every member of our school staff worked tirelessly this year and deserves to be celebrated and thanked.”

“They deserve recognition for going above-and-beyond to ensure students were educated and their needs were met during a worldwide pandemic,” she added. “We deeply appreciate Superintendent Walts, as one of his last duties, for initiating this bonus.”

Earlier this spring, the school board approved a budget for next school year that includes an average 5% raise for teachers and staff.

A rendering of the scaled back Mill at Occoquan, which now proposes six stories instead of seven, and 52 condominiums instead of 80.

Smaller ‘Mill at Occoquan’ gets mixed reviews No final vote has yet been scheduled for waterfront development

By Aileen M. Streng Contributing Writer

The Occoquan Town Council held a public hearing Tuesday on a scaled-down version of the proposed Mill at Occoquan development.

Only a few residents spoke out about the project, and their views were fairly split between strong support and vehement opposition.

The Mill at Occoquan is a mixeduse project of residential and commercial uses on about 1 acre of waterfront property along the Occoquan River near the end of Mill Street. The area is now home to older retail buildings and a dry dock.

The project’s developer, Kevin Sills, of Mid-Atlantic Real Estate Investments, had proposed a seven-story building with 80 condominiums, about 3,000 square feet of retail space and a 10,000-square-foot restaurant. It also would have had on the top floor an observation deck on the top floor with about 3,000 more square feet of restaurant space, both of which would have been open to the public.

The current design is the project’s seventh version.

As revised, the building would hold only 52 condominiums on six stories. The change would reduce the overall average height to 55 feet with the first two levels, which would be devoted to parking, built mostly underground. Sills is looking for a special exception approval to exceed the town’s height limit of 35 feet.

The revised design would still have a restaurant and some retail space on the ground floor, a total of 6,442 square feet. The smaller building would also allow for the normal amount of setback from the sidewalk. The developer is no longer asking for an exception to the setback requirement.

The project would still include a 350-foot riverwalk that would be open to the public along with a paddleboard ramp.

Resident Rick Torres spoke about the tax benefits to the town. “I spend all my money in the town and I imagine the new residents would, too. This could be a catalyst for the town and get people to invest from the inside. I love this town. I do believe this could be a positive asset to the town.”

“From what I see, this project is clearly detrimental to the character of Occoquan,” said resident Lisa Terry.

“This monstrosity dwarfs the buildings on either side of it. If you look at it from the river, it looks like a drab concrete block. This project is going to exacerbate the [parking] problem as well as add a multitude of others.

Why not build something that meets the aesthetics of Occoquan?”

Resident Amy Barnes said she was concerned about the impact to adjacent properties “which will occur when the pile-driving happens.”

Sills had originally planned to buy the 263-year-old Rockledge Mansion to use part of the property as well as an adjacent lot on Ellicott Street to build a 156-space parking garage. Since the smaller building will have reduced restaurant space, Sills has put his plan to buy Rockledge Mansion on hold.

Still, Lance Houghton, who owns the mansion, as his parents did before him, said he still supports the project.

“My family bridges a bit of the time between the past and the present,” Houghton said. “You have before you the notion of compromise. Everyone is going to have to give a little bit to get a little bit. I do think in the sum total of things, we have been offered enough mitigating items to be willing to accept them and approve them. It’s no secret that I am for this project.”

After listening to presentations, councilmembers asked several questions about specifics about the plan, including parking.

The town’s zoning ordinance calls for two parking spaces for each one-bedroom unit and three for each two-bedroom unit. For the Mill at Occoquan, that would total 157 spaces. Sills is offering 2.8 parking spaces for a two-bedroom unit for a total of 142 spaces.

Sills said he is still making adjustments to the parking areas and could gain spots with compact parking spaces.

Councilman Eliot Perkins spoke about the importance of the retail and restaurant space in the building.

“Part of what makes that building live, from a community perspective, is the retail space,” he said.

“The height has been the most talked about part of this,” Perkins said.

Sills said removing the top floor and observation deck lowered the height by about 12 to 14 feet.

“There have been multiple formal and informal meetings regarding this project,” Councilwoman Jenn Loges said to Sills. “I do hope and encourage you to take that feedback to heart.”

Bi-County Parkway gets another look

By Daniel Berti

Times Staff Writer

Five years ago, the Prince William Board of County Supervisors put the brakes on a proposed four-lane bypass that would have connected Va. 234 in Prince William County to the Dulles airport corridor in Loudoun County by removing it from the county’s comprehensive plan.

Now, the bypass, known then as the “Bi-County Parkway,” is back on the table.

Prince William County officials are considering whether to add the road – now referred to as the Va. 234 Bypass – back into the mobility chapter of the county’s updated comprehensive plan. The Prince William Planning Commission could weigh in on the proposal as soon as July or September, according to Ricardo Canizales, Prince William County’s transportation director.

“We’re probably going to examine it as part of the comprehensive plan update, but there’s a lot of steps to get through before we get to an approval,” Canizales said in an interview Tuesday. “We will need to figure the best route and type of road to consider. Then, the public, planning commission and board of coun-

ty supervisors will have to weigh in on alternative scenarios, including a no-build scenario.”

The Va. 234 Bypass has been included on a table of possible new roads to be added to the county’s comprehensive plan, dubbed the “Pathway to 2040.” The Prince William Board of County Supervisors is in the process of updating the longterm development plan, a process that began in 2018.

The Bi-County Parkway was initially planned to extend Va. 234 from its terminus at Interstate 66 in Prince William up to U.S 50 in Loudoun – a stretch of about 10 miles bordering the Manassas National Battlefield Park along part of the way. In 2013, the parkway was estimated to cost $440 million.

The bypass route being considered by the county may differ from its original route because of proposed new development in the area of the bypass, Canizales said. But as of now, the extent of those design changes is unknown.

The road has been under discussion since the early 2000s. An effort to advance its construction in 2013 faced a torrent of opposition from Prince William County residents and local elected officials, including

Studies performed at the time showed it could cut traffic on nearby roads by as much as 67%. former state senator Dick Black and former state delegates Tim Hugo and Bob Marshall. After a years-long fight, the Prince William Board of County Supervisors voted 4-3 to remove the parkway from the county’s comprehensive plan in March 2016, putting it on hold indefinitely.

The parkway is one segment of a 45-mile stretch identified as a “north-south corridor of statewide significance” by the Commonwealth Transportation Board in 2011.

Supervisor Victor Angry, D-Neabsco, stated his support for resurrecting the Bi-County Parkway in an interview with The Prince William Times on Monday.

“That Bi-County Parkway would benefit everyone. It should have never been off the table. So, if it’s back on the table, I’ll definitely take a hard look at that,” Angry said. “ ...

Right now, I think it’s a good idea.”

THOROUGHFARE, from page 1 What those actions could not directly address, however, is the ongoing struggle that prompted those steps in the first place: the effect of encroaching development on three historic family cemeteries in Thoroughfare.

In recent weeks, The Farm Brewery at Broad Run, which is also located in Thoroughfare, inadvertently cleared land believed to contain what is known as the “Scott cemetery.” The brewery was cited with a zoning violation for clearing the land without a permit and is now working with county to have the cemetery professionally investigated to identify and delineate the gravesites it might contain. According to an informal assessment by a local historian in the late 1990s and early 2000s, the Scott cemetery is believed to contain as many as 75 to 100 burial sites.

The resolution the board approved June 15 promises only that county staff will work with the brewery, Thoroughfare residents and other interested parties “to help facilitate mutually agreeable access” to a second cemetery in the area known as the Peyton cemetery. While required by Virginia law, access to the Peyton cemetery has been a point of dispute, as the brewery owners have said they must keep a locked security gate on a private road leading to it. The informal cemetery is located on private land adjacent to the brewery’s property.

County officials said the dispute will need to be resolved according to existing state law, which requires property owners to provide “reasonable access” to researchers and descendants of those buried in family cemeteries located on private land.

That is among the limitations that continue to frustrate Frank Washington, a native of Thoroughfare who leads the recently formed “Coalition to Save Historic Thoroughfare.” The group has held three press conferences in recent weeks to speak out against damage to the Thor-

After the vote, Washington called the supervisors’ actions “a positive step” but one that falls short of offering the full protections he believes the county could offer. The county could explore purchasing the land containing the cemeteries to prevent further development around them, Washington said. Short of that, Washington said he would like county officials to exert as much oversight as possible in any archeological investigations of gravesites in the area – including those not yet identified.

Some in the community were alarmed last week when another property owner hired an archeology firm to investigate as-yet undocumented gravesites next to what is known as the “Fletcher-Allen cemetery” – a third cemetery in the area that is documented on county maps.

mined there could be as many as 30 to 40 Native American gravesites on property adjacent to the Fletcher-Allen cemetery. The property owner hired an archeology firm to investigate those claims, something that he was within his rights to do, according to Tom Smith, Prince William County’s director of public works.

Washington said he would like the county to put the brakes on all new development in the area until all of the gravesites can be identified. County officials say the law doesn’t allow such steps, a position that Washington questions.

“The concern is, how can you allow development in that area if you know there are gravesites that haven’t been identified?” Washington said.

Supervisors said they realize the county’s legal options are limited and called the resolutions a first step toward better protecting the area.

Evan Reyle, a Manassas resident who works at “The Lamb Center,” a dropin center for people experiencing homelessness in Fairfax County, spoke in support of proposed homeless drop-in center in Manassas.

After pushback, supervisors say they’ll rethink location for homeless center

By Jill Palermo

Times Staff Writer

Prince William Board of County Supervisors Chair Ann Wheeler and Supervisor Pete Candland said the county will likely consider other locations for a new homeless drop-in center in Manassas after hearing concerns from parents and business owners about a plan that would have placed the facility near a dance studio, gymnastics facility and mosque frequented daily by dozens of kids and teens.

More than 100 people turned out to a “listening session” held by Prince William County officials on Wednesday, June 9, at a Best Western on Balls Ford and Sudley roads.

The hotel is near the “Build America 8” business complex, a cluster of more than 70 commercial spaces near Interstate 66 and Sudley Road, where the county’s department of social services has identified a potential site for a daytime “homeless navigation center” that would offer meals, showers, laundry, counseling and other services to residents without a permanent place to stay.

But the complex is also home to Stage Door Dance Studio, GMS Gymnastics and the Manassas Mosque, which operates an Islamic school. Together, the facilities serve more than 1,000 kids a day, according to business owners and parents who expressed concerns about the homeless center.

Some said they worry about the safety of people, especially children, heading to and from the dance studio, gymnasium and mosque, as well as problems such as loitering, panhandling and littering if the drop-in center were to open in the complex.

Meanwhile, advocates for the homeless spoke of the need for more services for a growing number of residents experiencing homelessness.

Sydney Johnson, a Stage Door instructor, said the studio and surrounding businesses already contend with people using drugs and engaging in prostitution in and around the parking lot. She said she worries such problems could get worse if the homeless center were added to the mix. The dance studio, she added, is still trying

to recover from the pandemic.

“Everyone needs help. I completely understand. I just don’t think it’s the best fit for this area, considering how long these businesses have been here, how hard they’ve worked to maintain their businesses and that they’re still trying to bring [new] people in,” she said.

Kevin Rychlik, president of Serving Our Neighbors, a homeless outreach effort of the Manassas Presbyterian Church, said he did not disagree with the parents’ and instructors’ concerns but asked them to give the homeless center a chance.

“I think you’re great parents to worry about the safety of your children,” Rychlik said. “But homeless people aren’t abducting children out here.

They’re just people who are homeless who need a place to go. And they need help. So, I just ask you to open up your hearts and think about that.”

County: Drop-in center needed on the west end

If the project comes to fruition, the new drop-in center, formally called a “homeless navigation center,” would be the county’s largest capital investment in homeless services in decades. The opportunity is a result of the tens of millions of federal COVID-19 relief funds that have poured into the county over the past year.

The county has tentatively set aside about $10.5 million in COVID-19 relief and other federal funding to purchase a building and renovate it to serve as a homeless navigation center, which advocates and county officials say is badly needed on the county’s west end, particularly in the Sudley Road corridor.

During the most recent “pointin-time count,” a one-day census of residents experiencing homelessness conducted in January, the county’s total number of homeless dropped 13% to 282.

Across the Washington, D.C. region, the number of homeless declined 15%, a drop attributed to the nationwide eviction moratorium and the See HOMELESS, page 6

HOMELESS, from page 5 increased federal funding made available for rental assistance and homeless services during the pandemic.

But of the 282 people counted as homeless in Prince William County this year, 67 – or about 24% -- were in the west end of the county, Tierney said.

Of the 67, 19 were identified as “unsheltered,” meaning they were sleeping outside in tents or other places unfit for human habitation, while 48 had received help to stay in a local hotel because of the cold weather that night, Tierney said.

County officials began searching for a location for a west-end homeless drop-in center last year. They

Prince William Times | www.princewilliamtimes.com | June 17, 2021

considered 15 possible sites before homing in on what had been a former fitness facility in the Build America 8 business park, located at 7300 New Market Court.

The building needs renovation but offers what the drop-in center needs most: sufficient space and a water line large enough to accommodate both the showers and laundry facilities, Tierney said. Also, the business park is about .2 miles from a local bus stop.

Tierney and advocates for the homeless, some of whom work in drop-in centers and shelters, sought to allay the parents’ and business owners’ concerns by stressing the facility would have security and structure. Tierney said clients do not loiter around the county’s existing drop-in

center in Woodbridge after it closes.

“We don’t have any problem during the day with people [loitering] outside,” Tierney said. “They come; they shower; they get their meal; they connect with a case manager; and then they go to work. And then they go to wherever it is they sleep, and that can be varied and different places, but it is not at the drop-in center.

Because we do not allow that.”

Wheeler: ‘We will get a west-end navigation center somewhere.’

Near the end of the meeting, County Executive Chris Martino said county staff would “go back to the drawing board” and consider the comments. As things unfold, he added, “there will be more discussions with the community.”

Wheeler, D-at large, and Candland, R-Gainesville, both said in interviews after the meeting the county would likely reconsider the location for the drop-in center.

“The staff will rethink this proposal, and we’ll go back to the board as a whole. … I think we heard a lot of concerns, and that’s what public meetings are for,” Wheeler said, noting she was encouraged to hear so much support for the center from advocates for the homeless.

“So, we will get a west-end navigation center somewhere,” she added. “We’ll do something, one way or another, no matter what.”

Bristow couple pleads guilty to charges stemming from Capitol riot

By Jill Palermo

Times Staff Writer

A Prince William County couple on Monday became the first two people in the U.S. to plead guilty to misdemeanor charges in connection with the Jan. 6 riot in the U.S. Capitol, according to news reports and court records.

Joshua K. Bustle, 35, and his wife Jessica L. Bustle, 36, of Bristow, entered a plea deal in federal court on Monday, June 14, agreeing to a federal conviction and to pay $500 each in restitution in connection with their actions at the U.S. Capitol building on Jan. 6, when supporters of President Donald Trump forced their way into the building in an effort to disrupt members of Congress from certifying the Electoral College vote declaring President Joe Biden the winner of the 2020 presidential election.

The uprising forced the evacuation of both chambers of Congress, injured more than 100 police officers and left five people dead, including a Capitol police officer. About $1.4 million in damages were caused to the U.S. Capitol building, according to officials.

Both Joshua and Jessica Bustle were initially charged with four misdemeanors in connection with the riots but pleaded guilty to only one of them – unlawful parading, demonstrating or picketing in a Capitol building. Prosecutors dropped the other three charges in an agree-

ment the Bustles signed on May 24, according to court records.

The charge carries a maximum sentence of six months in prison.

The couple asked to be sentenced on Monday, June 21, according to a Washington Post report.

Attempts to reach one of the attorneys representing the couple were not immediately successful Tuesday.

The couple’s plea deal could set a model for about 200 other first-time offenders facing charges in connection with the uprising, the Post reported.

Joshua and Jessica Bustle are the second and third Prince William County residents to be charged in connection with the Jan. 6 protests and riots in and around the U.S. Capitol. On May 13, Major Christopher Warnagiris, 40, of Woodbridge, an active-duty Marine stationed at Quantico, was charged with federal offenses including assaulting, resisting or impeding law enforcement officers in connection with the protests.

In an initial report of the Bustles’ arrest in March, the DOJ inaccurately referred to them as residents of Bristol, Virginia, according to news reports.

The Bustles were charged after the FBI received several tips about social media posts Jessica Bustle made about attending the Jan. 6 protests, according to charging documents..

The couple entered the Capitol building at about 2:53 p.m. that day and stayed for about 20 minutes.

They carried signs protesting the U.S.

Left: A Facebook post made by Jessica Bustle, of Bristow, which was included in court charging documents. government’s efforts to vaccinate the population against COVID-19, the charging document said.

Jessica Bustle wrote on Facebook about their reasons for entering the Capitol. In one of those posts, which was included in the charging document, Jessica Bustle wrote in part: “We don’t win this thing sitting on the sidelines. Excited to stand for truth with my fellow patriots and freedom fighters in D.C. today.”

In another message, also included in the charging document, she wrote: “We need a Revolution! We can accept an honest and fair election, but this is NOT fair and patriots don’t want to

see their country brought into communism and destroyed over a lie.”

According to the Washington Post report, Jessica Bustle spoke in court during the June 14 hearing to acknowledge her posts and her actions.

“I’m admitting guilt to the things that I said, and I’m sorry for saying them,” she said, adding: “There were also other things that were said in posts that were kind, like ‘Pray for America,’ that weren’t included.

Those weren’t the full things that I wrote. But I am admitting guilt.”

Another consists of 148 acres bordering Manassas National Battlefield Park. The third lies about 2 miles west and consists of 466 acres bordering Sudley Road and Pageland Lane.

All the parcels are located near a major Dominion Energy transmission line corridor built in 2008 that traverses several of the properties. The applicants claim no new transmission lines will be required to power future data centers along Pageland Lane because of the existing transmission lines. But electrical substations may be needed onsite to power the data centers, according to the application.

The electricity needs for any future data centers developed in the area have not yet been analyzed by the county or Dominion Energy.

Page Snyder and Mary Ann Ghadban, the landowners leading the charge to allow data centers on the properties, say they believe the county should approve their comprehensive plan change because of its proximity to the transmission line corridor and data centers already approved at Gainesville Crossing on Pageland Lane, less than two miles away.

“The area’s just totally not rural because of the transmission lines. Everyone recognizes that this is not what it was, and it needs to change,” Ghadban said. “... It’s the right place for data centers.”

Ghadban is a land broker and commercial real estate consultant.

Additional rezonings and special use permits will need to be approved by the county board for the project to move forward, neither of which have yet been filed. The application will also need to be reviewed by the Prince William County Planning Commission before it heads to the supervisors for approval. No timelines for those reviews or required public hearings have yet been set.

Several residential communities are near the 800 acres pitched for new data center development, as seen here in an aerial photo included in the land-use application. by increased demand for data centers in the area.

Ghadban said she believes the landowners on Pageland Lane will receive “significantly less” than the $1 million an acre price tag seen elsewhere in the county if the application is approved because the subsequent data center developers will need to pay for public water and sewer infrastructure to support the buildings.

The landowners are also proposing to create a $20 million nonprofit foundation as a condition of the project’s approval that would directly fund county initiatives.

The Pageland Lane landowners estimate their 792 acres could accommodate between 11.8 and 20.7 million square feet of data center space at full buildout, which would more than double the existing data center square footage in the county.

Right now, there are about 5 million square feet of data centers in Prince William County and another 3 million square feet of data centers currently under construction, according to Christina Winn, Prince William County’s economic development director.

This application comes amid a rush of new data center activity within the western part of the county and just a few weeks after the supervisors voted in May to hire a contractor study a possible expansion the county’s existing “Data Center Opportunity Zone Overlay District,” designating areas where data centers can be developed by right.

Prince William County implemented its nearly 10,000-acre data center overlay district in 2016 to direct data centers to areas with adequate electrical supply to support data center power needs. Since then, the amount of space left within the district considered suitable for new data centers has been mostly accounted for, according to county officials.

Approving more data centers has been controversial. Republican supervisors and local conservation groups are staunchly opposed to allowing any data centers within the county’s rural crescent, raising concerns about data centers’ impact on the environment, the nearby state and national parks and potential impacts to the existing character of the rural area.

The “digital gateway” proposal is in Supervisor Pete Candland’s Gainesville District, and within a mile of his home. Candland (R) has said he will fight any data center proposal in the rural crescent “tooth and nail.”

Kim Hosen, executive director of the Prince William Conservation Alliance, said in March that any plans for data centers adjacent to See GATEWAY, page 9

GUEST OPINION

‘Did somebody say Juneteenth?’

I remember the very first time I heard the word Juneteenth. I was 13, fresh out of school on summer vacation, 400 miles north in my cousin Missy’s room in Buffalo, New York, where my father was raised.

As any child or grandchild or great-grandchild of the Great Migration knows, Black families reunite over summers. It is cousin-visiting time, city-comparison time, regional music disputing time, and as a Black girl brought up in the Washington, D.C. area, a time for me to exclaim my local pride by personally exporting the local sound of “go-go music” to the rooms of people who shared features and grandparents with me.

My cousin Missy was in her late teens, and she was definitely in the know on Black fashion, music and “newness.” (She knew what was hot in Black culture.) Once, some years prior, she had given me a full bag of Barbie dolls with the fiercest chopped haircuts north of the Mason-Dixon line.

So, on that June day when she began telling me what she was wearing for the upcoming Juneteenth, I immediately took note of the unfamiliar compound word.

“Juneteenth? What’s that?”

The question lingered in the middle of the room and made the distance between me and Missy standing at her closet seem continental. A litany of explanations came tumbling from her light, Buffalo-accented voice: there were mini-concerts, arts, competitions and descriptions of food that challenged my growing teen awareness of figure-keeping. In short, there was a Black jubilee.

Jubilee. It was a word I had associated with the numerous album covers of my father’s favorite Black southern quartets. Despite the detail of her description, my 13-year-old mind came to envision a green park at city-center with young Black girls hula hooping without care to music; the permeance of foods I loved, and the possibility of meeting someone famous.

Jubilee.

In contrast, I don’t remember the first time I heard July 4th. I never had to have a cousin parcel it out to me 13 years into life. It did not have to be taught. It just always was, GATEWAY, from page 8 Manassas National Battlefield Park would have “detrimental impacts to federally owned parkland.”

“Data centers are notoriously loud, have high energy demands, and replace wildlife habitat with impervious surfaces. Such facilities are more appropriate for an industrial area than a rural community bordering a national park,” Hosen said.

Democratic supervisors have pointed to the tax revenue data centers provide and the potential for increased commercial revenues to offset the county’s real estate tax rate. Tax revenue generated by data

there was no need to preface it or give it an explanatory comma.

During the Civil War, news of the end of enslavement reached African Americans at different times. Some slaveholders fled to Texas with men, women and children in bondage where Union troops were sparse. But two full years after the Emancipation Proclamation, word of freedom came on June 19, 1865, in Galveston, Texas.

Jubilee.

African Americans created Juneteenth to celebrate slavery’s final demise.

Twenty-seven years after first personally learning of Juneteenth, I find the metric of true freedom must be what my cousin Missy set unsuspectingly in her room so long ago. It must be a litany of equitable successes that can be rattled off to show we have reversed the big and small of white supremacy -- the supremacy that has dominated our societal consciousness.

It influences what we learn; who and what we find valuable; what cultural products are celebrated; who lives and who dies; who ekes out an existence and who thrives.

When we reach that level of “freedom,” then and only then, will Juneteenth be more than a temporary escape to Jubilee, but a reality as prolific and enduring for all Americans as July 4th has been for white America.

In 2020, data centers generated $64 million in local tax revenues, up from $6 million in 2012.

Supervisor Victor Angry, D-Neabsco, said in a June 14 interview that adding more data centers, including the proposed data centers on Pageland Lane, would be “an opportunity to lower the residential tax base.”

“The revenue that can come in from this opportunity will definitely lighten the burden on our residents and our constituents,” Angry said.

What’s Hot at Prince William Public Libraries: June 2021

by Kirk Johnson

Contributing Writer

Summer is here, and for many people, that means that it is time for summer reading. People often find this is the best time for discovering new writers, tackling long reads they’ve been putting off, exploring a subject they want to know more about and – of course – indulging in “beach reads,” those purely entertaining, easy-to-read stories.

Whatever you’re looking to read this summer, Prince William Public Libraries has you covered.

This year marks the 100th anniversary of a tragically long-neglected travesty in American history: the racist violence and murder inflicted upon the African American residents of Tulsa, Oklahoma’s Greenwood neighborhood, colloquially known as “Black Wall Street.” For teen readers, it may be difficult to understand why this episode is not better known and to imagine the horror of experiencing it. The new YA Novel “Angel of Greenwood”

by Randi Pink allows young readers to approach this legacy in a human and relatable way through the story of two very different young people facing violence together.

Readers might be forgiven for thinking that, after over a century and a half of study and veneration, scholars might be running out of new

things to say and learn about our 16th president, Abraham Lincoln. But in “Lincoln in Private,” renowned bestselling writer Ronald C. White, looks at Lincoln’s own private notes to himself— notes in which he worked out his thoughts on current events and moral concerns. In White’s book, we can see the ideas that would lead some of the greatest speeches and most momentous presidential actions in our history were worked out in Lincoln’s own mind.

Readers interested in the publishing industry behind their favorite books—and the potential for intrigue in that rarified world—should gratify that curiosity with first-time author Zakiya Dalila Harris’ “The Other Black Girl.” Think of it as a somewhat more sinister “The Devil Wears Prada” shot through with timely racial politics. This could be a book club choice once word gets out.

And of course, no summer reading suggestion article would be complete without at least one “beach read” The ever-reliable Nora Roberts is back on top the New York Times Bestseller List with her latest work of romantic fiction. In “Legacy,” Roberts gives readers another of her patented tales of a resourceful woman overcoming the obstacles circumstance place between her and success in business, life, and love.

Happy summer reading!

BOBCATS, PIONEERS ON COLLISION COURSE? Potent Battlefield, Patriot boys lacrosse rivals could meet in Friday’s region final

By Jason S. Rufner Special to the Times

Only once all season long have the Battlefield Bobcats and Patriot Pioneers lost, and in both cases, it came versus each other.

That seems appropriate for a fierce high school rivalry, and one reason they’re likely to play again in the Class 6 Region B championship game on Friday.

Patriot defeated John Champe in one semifinal Tuesday to book its ticket to the region final. Battlefield faced Riverbend Wednesday (before Prince William Times deadlines) in the other semi.

But there’ll be more than pride on the line. Only the winner advances to the state tournament.

“On the field the intensity and enthusiasm are kicked up because of all the history the teams have,” Battlefield coach David Suthers said. “The games tend to get chippy, rough and physical.”

Patriot coach Dan Puhlick is hopeful for a rubber match.

“The Patriot-Battlefield game is ‘The Game,’’’ he declared. “It’s circled on each other’s calendars.”

Suthers’ Bobcats earned the Cedar Run District regular season title thanks to beating Patriot 9-1 May 27. Though the Pioneers knocked off the Bobcats 6-5 on May 3, district rules stipulate only the second meeting count in the standings.

That means Battlefield would host the showdown for the region crown and the favorable seeding at states.

Let’s look at how the Bobcats and Patriots made it this far.

Bobcats clamp down on defense

It wasn’t until halfway through the nine-game regular season that Suthers felt his team played well in a 9-2 defeat of Champe.

They proceeded to finish out the regular season outscoring four opponents 61-1.

“Very good goalie play from Nate George,” the Battlefield coach said of his senior netminder, owner of a 72% save percentage.

The Bobcats’ defense is led by seniors J.R. Radun and Henry Shafer. The duo entered regions having combined for 40 ground balls and 20 caused turnovers with nearly identical stats.

“Both these defenders can match up with the best attackmen of the other team and match up well,” said Suthers, a first-year head coach after a decade as a Battlefield assistant.

Three attackers propel the offense. Seniors Jake Davis and Stefan Granados both score, but

After losing to Patriot earlier in the year, Battlefield and Cole Bonnell (left) downed Ethan Levine (right) and Patriot 9-1 on May 27 to win the Cedar Run District title. A rematch looms Friday in the Class 6 Region B championship with only the winner making states.

NOT MUCH DIFFERENCE BETWEEN PATRIOT, BATTLEFIELD

-Same record: Both Patriot and and Battlefield are 9-1 -Head-to-head: Patriot won 6-5 on May 3; Battlefield won 9-1 on May 27 -Playoff schedule: Region championship is Friday, June 18; states start Tuesday, June 22; state championship is Saturday, June 26 in different ways. Davis produced 16 goals and 13 assists during the regular season, while Granados had 24 goals and seven helpers.

Sophomore Ronan Cleary attacks from the left side, getting 18 goals and a team-high 17 assists.

Senior Cole Bonnell leads the midfielder corps.

“All three attackmen give us something different. Davis is good at catching and finishing on the crease. Granados can beat his man to score,” Suthers said. “Cleary ... has good vision to feed other attackmen or middies.”

Blue-collar Pioneers find a way

It’s a good thing 19 days transpired between the Pioneers’ last regular-season game May 27, and their postseason opener June 14.

“The long layoff has allowed us to get healthier,” Puhlick said. “Our offense had been riddled with injuries, forcing players to play out of position.”

‘The games tend to get chippy, rough and physical.’

DAVID SUTHERS Battlefield boys lacrosse coach

Puhlick has been at Patriot 10 years, including five as coach. He calls his Pioneers a “hard-working, blue-collar” team.

Winning faceoffs and ground balls has been instrumental. Junior Drew Fernandez and freshman Brody McClure win more than 75% of their faceoffs, setting up junior Aidan Fairchild, who was recently named Cedar Run Player of the Year after scoring 19 goals.

Fairchild, a tenacious defender, also has 52 ground balls and 20 forced takeaways. Junior goalie Tristan Lenard “is a strong, vocal leader who anchors a great defense.”

In a five-game span from May 6 to 24, the Pioneers outscored opponents 78-9.

Freshman Tyler Smelzer has 16 goals, including five in his first ever region tourney game. Senior Owen Castleman leads with 20 goals and 33 assists, including 12 helpers in one game. Sophomore Sam Fernandez is “an explosive midfielder” who scored 15 goals and recorded 45 ground balls.

“This is a well-balanced team with 10 excellent seniors and a host of strong underclassmen,” Puhlick said.

Till we meet again

Patriot defenseman Aiden Fairchild (No. 13, left) and attacker Owen Castlemen (No. 2, right) are two of Pioneers’ standout seniors.

Whenever they meet with something on the line, the Bobcats and Patriots play compelling lacrosse games. It took overtime for the Bobcats to defeat the Patriots for the 2019 Cedar Run championship.

That year, both teams won 15 games apiece and still made states. Only one can make states this year, with the four regional champs populating the field.

Suthers hopes Battlefield shines like they did in the 9-1 win that delivered the district crown.

“The defense set out with a matchup plan and stuck with it, leading to seven caused turnovers,” he said. “The offense played well together [as] six of the nine goals had assists.”

Keeping composure and staying out of the penalty box was key.

“We blocked out all the rivalry distractions,” Suthers said.

Mary Virginia Jasper Timbers Mary Virginia Jasper Timbers was a loving and devoted mother, grandmother, sister, aunt, cousin, and friend. Mary passed away peacefully at her home in Front Royal, Virginia on Saturday, June 5, 2021, surrounded by her family.

Mary was born August 13, 1924, in Rappahannock County, Virginia. She was the oldest daughter of the late George Jasper & Julia Beasley. She attended school in Rappahannock County.

In 1948, Mary married Robert Haywood Timbers, who preceded her in death on October 4, 1972. Her two brothers, George Bennett Jasper and Aubrey Bluestone Jasper Sr. preceded her in death.

Mary will always be remembered for the love of her family and friends, and the many lives she touched. She was a self-employed real estate owner.

Left to cherish so many fond memories are her two daughters, Vida Timbers of Front Royal, Virginia and Janet Timbers of Harrisonburg, Virginia, a grandson, Antoine Haywood Timbers of Downey, California, who affectionately called her Big MaMa, two loving sisters Cassie J. Hughes of Baltimore, Cornelia J. Banks, and a special brother-in-law, the former Mayor George Banks of Front Royal Virginia. Also there are many loving and adored nieces, nephews, cousins and friends.

Mary was a 26-year colon cancer survivor. With the support of family and friends, she continued her everyday activities while undergoing chemotherapy.

Mary became a member of Macedonia Baptist Church in Flint Hill Virginia in 1948 and remained active with the church until her death.

Mary committed her life in such a lovable and helpful way. Mary was active in the community and involved in several organizations. She had served as a member of American Legion Auxiliary Post, American Heart Association, American Red Cross, participated for many years in The American Cancer Society Relay for Life, was a former Volunteer at Warren Memorial Hospital, and an Electoral Officer in the North River District. Mary was a Life Member of the Warren-Page NAACP and was very active in the organization until her health declined.

Even though many of Mary’s special and beloved friends are now with The Lord, Mary cherished the continued friendship of 3 ladies that she has known for over 75 years: Mrs. Bessie Baltimore, Mrs. Pearl Jordan, and Mrs. Lillian Sloan. Also we cannot forget her walking partner for many years, Mrs. Betty Roberts.

A Celebration of Life honoring Mary is scheduled for Friday, June 18, 2021, with visitation from 11am until 12 pm and services starting at 12 pm at Dynamic Life Praise and Worship Center, 1600 John Marshall Highway, Front Royal, Virginia, 22630.

Addie Barnes Barrett Addie Barnes Barrett went home to meet her Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, and to reunite with a host of loved ones on Saturday, May 29, 2021.

Fondly known by her family as Big Mommy and Miss Addie to members of the community, she blessed all who ever crossed paths with her, greeting them with a warm smile and a kind and loving spirit.

Addie was born on August 7, 1925, in Southampton County, Va., to Luther and Nancy Barnes. Her father died when she was very young. She shared many times how her mother raised her in the nurture and admonition of the Lord Jesus. She professed the Lord Jesus Christ as her savior and joined Mill Neck Baptist Church in Como, N.C., as a young girl. She later served as a deaconess at Mill Neck Baptist.

Addie worked as a cosmetologist and volunteered at Southampton Memorial Hospital. On August 24, 1950, Addie married Cleveland Barrett.

They had two daughters, Pat and Nancy, whom Addie adored and loved to brag about any chance she received.

In the early 1980s, Addie moved to Warrenton, VA., to be near her daughters. She worked as a caregiver for elderly women for many years.

Addie enjoyed attending church, listening to hymns and sermons, cooking, accompanying her family on road trips, and attending the Fauquier Senior Center. But one of her favorite pastimes involved spending time with and helping raise her seven grandchildren.

Addie spent many years as a member of Providence Baptist Church in Remington, VA serving as a deaconess.

Addie was preceded in death by her parents, two brothers, Luther and Richard and two sisters, Mattie and Edith, and her husband, Cleveland.

Her memory will be cherished by her two daughters, Pat Jones and Nancy Carlos, who faithfully cared for her until her dying day, and her son-in-law Rick Jones, who she loved as her own. Her memory will also be cherished by seven grandchildren: Monica Jones Freidline (Ryan), Michael Jones (Katie), Priscilla Jones Park (Andy), Stephen Jones (Larra), Renard Carlos (Lea), Dargan “Matthew” Carlos (Brittney) and Leslie Jones Ramseur (Christopher), and 10 great-grandchildren, an “adopted daughter” Suzette Thomas, a cousin Bernice Williams, a dear friend Doris Jones, a dear friend and caregiver, Glacia Settle, and a host of extended family members and friends.

Funeral services were held on Sunday, June 6, 2021 at Moser Funeral Home, 233 Broadview Avenue, Warrenton, VA. Burial took place on June 7, 2021 at Hampton National Cemetery, Hampton, VA. Addie’s family would like to thank Capital Caring Hospice for their wonderful care during her final days on earth.

Contributions can be made to the Fauquier Senior Citizen’s Center in honor of her.

Welcome to the new legacy!

Still your bank.

On April 1, 2021, The Fauquier Bank merged with Virginia National Bank. The combined bank will cover the counties of Fauquier, Prince William, Frederick, and Albemarle, and the cities of Richmond and Charlottesville. Bringing together over 140 years of combined banking experience to our community. The transition of the combined bank will take some time, but we expect to serve all clients at all locations

by August 2021. Welcome to the new legacy!

As we continue to grow, we will never lose sight of the critical ingredients to our continued success. Exceptional service begins and ends with people.

That’s why we say, “It’s all about people . . . and always will be.”
