Parents of Prince William County students remain divided on whether it’s safe to send their children back to school under the school division’s “hybrid 50% plan,” which would allow students to attend school in person two days a week starting on Tuesday, Nov. 10.

The school division set an Oct. 4 deadline for opting into the program and did not extend it despite news this past weekend that the novel coronavirus had hospitalized President Donald Trump and infected first lady Melania Trump, former New Jersey governor Chris Christie and other members of the president’s inner circle.

Prince William County maintains the highest percent-positivity rate on COVID-19 tests in Northern Virginia, according to the Virginia Department of Health. The local health district, which includes Prince William County, Manassas and Manassas Park, reported four COVID-19 deaths in the past week and continues to report dozens of new cases a day.

As of Monday, 52 cases of COVID-19 had been reported among students and staff at more

Work to design the Va. 28 bypass in Manassas is plowing ahead, but whether the project will receive a key U.S. Army Corps of Engineers permit to pave through wetlands and streams remains an open question.

The proposed $300 million bypass would extend Godwin Drive to create a new, four-lane road between the West Gate and Loch Lomond residential subdivisions that will run parallel to Flat Branch Stream and cross Bull Run Creek before it reconnects with Va. 28 beyond the Fairfax County line.

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers issues permits for all work in wetlands and other national waters that are regulated by Section 404 of the Clean Water Act. Although a supporter of the bypass, Prince William Board of County Supervisors Chair Ann Wheeler has said, “There’s always a chance [the permits] could get rejected.”

than 40 Prince William schools even though most students and teachers have been working remotely since the start of the school year.

And, according to a new U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention metric, Prince William County is at a “higher risk” and at a “moderate risk” for spreading COVID-19 in schools based on the number of cases reported in the past 14 days and the county’s percent-positivity rate on COVID-19 tests, which was 6% as of Monday, Oct. 5.

Cases and percent-positivity rate are two of three “core indicators” in the CDC’s school metric.

The third is the school division’s own assessment of whether it can employ mitigating strategies such as the “consistent and correct use” of face coverings; maintaining 6 feet of social distancing between students and staff; following hand hygiene and “respiratory etiquette;” ensuring regular and frequent cleaning; and the ability to contact-trace in collaboration with the local health department.

2 SPLIT, from page 1 On at least one of those strategies, Prince William schools will fall short.

Superintendent Steven Walts has said schools can only ensure 3 feet of social distancing under the 50% model.

Only the 25% model, which would allow students to attend school one day a week, would ensure 6-foot social distancing, Walts has said.

Parents have been weighing the complex and sometimes conflicting factors behind the decision. Several have expressed strong feelings, with some saying their children need to be back in school and others insisting it’s still not safe.

Parent opposed: ‘It makes no sense’

Aisha Bonner Cozad, of Woodbridge, said she will keep her son, a 10th-grader at Colgan High, at home learning virtually. Cozad, an adjunct professor at Howard University, said she believes he’s doing well online because he’s a “social butterfly” at school and learning from home has allowed him to better concentrate on his studies.

Still, Cozad said she knows her son misses seeing his friends and would enjoy being back in the classroom. But at this point, she said she doesn’t feel safe sending him back and is disappointed the 50% plan will lead to changes in his schedule.

For one thing, Cozad said, she believes virtual students will have less time with teachers who are solely focused on virtual students because those learning from home will watch teachers instruct from their classrooms. Under virtual instruction, high school students work with each of their seven teachers in real-time at least twice a week.

Also, high school students will have to return to a 7:30 a.m. start time, an hour later than the current 8:30 a.m. start in place under the virtual-only schedule, which she said her son prefers.

What’s more, Cozad said she just doesn’t believe kids will be safe spaced only 3 feet apart and doesn’t believe teenagers can be trusted to follow all the rules, such as wearing their masks appropriately at all times and not hugging, high-fiving or physically interacting in the ways high school students are apt to do.

“I think if we know for sure there are going to be outbreaks, why would we put our children in that position?” she said. “Why would we subject our children to something that is so dangerous? It makes no sense.”

Elena Schlossberg, whose daughter attends Battlefield High School in Haymarket, says she is very concerned about the school’s ability to ensure only 3 feet of social distancing and said she has emailed school board members asking for data backing up their decision to settle for 3 feet. So far, she said she’s only been told that 3 feet is acceptable to the Virginia Department of Education.

Schlossberg further said she’s not convinced that Battlefield High – which last year was the most overcrowded school in Prince William at 896 students overcapacity – would be able to ensure even 3 feet of social distancing

Prince William Times | www.princewilliamtimes.com | October 7, 2020

with 50% of its students at school.

Schlossberg has suggested that the school division rent empty commercial or grocery store space to allow students to spread out but has not been told such planning is in the works.

“So we’re just resigning ourselves to getting sick, and I’m saying that’s a false choice,” Schlossberg said.

“The school board doesn’t want to make the hard choices, and they’re hoping that enough parents will say, ‘Wow, this is not safe,’ and will keep their kids at home.”

Parents in favor: Virtual ‘makes it so much harder’

Parents in favor of returning students to in-person learning say virtual learning so far has been frustrating for their kids in big ways and small. They say they know their kids would learn more effectively in a classroom with a teacher.

Parents worried Walts or the school board might decide to further delay in-person instruction organized via a Facebook page, “In-Person Quarter 2,” and staged rallies on Monday morning at Montclair, Mountain View and Alvey elementary schools to show their support for allowing families the choice to send their students back to school.

Stephanie Myers, of Montclair, is one of the group’s organizers. She said her 9-year-old son Ben, who has autism, has regressed in certain ways since schools closed. Myers said Ben has a preoccupation with technology that can sometimes sap his focus from his schoolwork, which has been made worse by virtual learning.

“The school put limits into place for Ben last year to reduce the amount of exposure that he had to technology, but now expects him to get all instruction and learning from the computer,” Myers said. “Ben would benefit from being in person because he would have access to teachers who are able to monitor his progress and instruct him while being able to manipulate and structure his learning environment.”

Alison Johanson, of Bristow, has two children: a son who is a senior at Unity Reed High School and a 12-year-old daughter in seventh grade at Marstellar Middle. She said her son is content with virtual learning and has decided to stay at home during the second quarter.

Her daughter, however, has been frustrated by virtual learning hiccups, such as sometimes not being admitted into a teacher’s Zoom session and not having her questions answered in a timely manner.

“It’s making it so much harder to get learning done,” Johanson said of her daughter. “She just wants to be back with kids her age and be able to get back [to school] to ask questions and hear a response.”

Johanson said she is not bothered by the school division’s inability to guarantee 6 feet of social distancing between the students. She said her family traveled via airplane several times this past summer, and the close quarters didn’t worry her.

“For me and my family, I’m not really concerned about COVID,” she added. “If the end goal is no cases

of COVID, then we’re never going to go back. I feel we have to start somewhere.”

Julie Schifflin, whose ninth-grade daughter is in advanced classes at Battlefield High School, cited several challenges to online learning, including a lack of textbooks and band classes being taught via YouTube videos.

But their biggest complaint so far is that teachers are slamming students with excessive work, Schifflin said.

“They’re giving so much work, it’s overwhelming the kids,” she said. “I think we need the face-to-face interaction with their teachers. The teachers need to see their facial expressions and hear and see the kids.”

Schifflin said she’s not concerned about the school division’s 3-foot social distancing because her daughter has been playing travel basketball for the past few months without any outbreaks of COVID-19.

She also said she doesn’t think President Trump’s diagnosis will necessarily sway parents who want their students back in school.

“I’m sad the president and first lady are sick, but I don’t think them getting sick will influence my opinion on whether or not schools should be open,” she said, adding: “I just think we need to get back to normal.”

Teachers call to keep virtual instruction

By Jill Palermo

Times Staff Writer

Citing safety as its No. 1 concern, the Prince William Education Association is calling on the school division to maintain virtual instruction “for the forseeable future” and wants the School Board or Superintendent Steven Walts to make that decision as soon as possible.

The Prince William Education Association is a union representing thousands of Prince William County Schools teachers and staff members. The group’s statement, released Sunday night, notes that the number of COVID-19 cases in Virginia continues to rise “at the same rate as in late June” and “there is no significant data indicating that returning to school in November will be equitable, let alone safe.”

“To ensure equity and continuity for all learners, it is crucial that proven learning routines are supported, not upended,” the statement continued. “As the mental health of all is of great concern, it would be foolish to capsize a process that we all have worked so hard to make successful. It is of utmost importance that this division’s leadership keep their word – that the safety of our children is our highest priority.”

Ovetta Scott, a math teacher at Fred Lynn Middle School and a PWEA leader, said teachers’ foremost concern is safety. They’re alarmed by the school division’s guarantee of only 3 feet of social distancing under the “50% hybrid” plan and have received

mixed messages about whether a rule requiring students to wear masks will be enforced.

“We understand there are some parents out there who want their kids back in school, but we all feel they are not looking at the big picture and reading between the lines of this hybrid plan,” Scott said Sunday evening.

“Instead of 6 feet [of social distancing], they say they can only do 3 feet. First they said all students had to wear masks, then they said [teachers] are not going to be the mask police,” she added.

Asked to respond, School Board Chairman Dr. Babur Lateef countered that virtual learning is not proving to be equitable for all students and “does not work for many of our special ed and [English language] learners.”

He further said he shares the PWEA’s concern for a safe return and said school division officials have “been working very hard to comply with all the CDC guidance.”

“We have had special education students in the building since Sept. 8 who in many locations are at times less than 6 feet [apart],” Lateef wrote in a text message. “I am happy to report that so far we have had no increased community spread attributed to our schools.”

Beyond safety concerns, Scott said teachers are further troubled by having to teach students both in person and online simultaneously and worry they won’t be able to, See VIRTUAL, page 4 Classified Sales Consultant Jeanne Cobert, 540-878-2491 jcobert@fauquier.com

New homes, shopping center pitched for Independent Hill Developer envisions 190 single-family homes, 12-acres of shops, restaurants

By Jill Palermo

Times Staff Writer

A new mixed-use development of 190 single-family homes and a shopping center is being proposed for the Independent Hill area. But already, both the Coles District supervisor and some area residents are expressing reservations about the plan’s size and density.

The development, which has yet to be reviewed by either the Prince William County Planning Commission or the Board of County Supervisors, is still in its early stages. The rezoning application has been in the works since 2019 and initially included 205 homes – a mix of 140 single-family and 65 townhomes. The latest iteration was unveiled to residents for the first time on Wednesday, Sept. 30, during a virtual town hall meeting hosted by Supervisor Yesli Vega, R-Coles.

The development would be encompassed by the proposed “Independent Hill Small Area Plan” – a blueprint for future development for about 565 acres in the mid-county area, stretching from the landfill to the edge of Prince William Forest Park along the Va. 234 corridor. It’s one of several “small area plans” still be reviewed for parts of the county.

Elm Street Development, based in McLean, is proposing the residential project in conjunction with the future “Parsons Business Park,” which is planned for 90 acres now occupied in part by Parsons Farm, which sells mulch, fill dirt and landscaping supplies from its outlet on Va. 234. The business park, which will also include a new Sheetz gas station, was approved in an October 2019 rezoning.

The proposed residential development would be on the west side of Va. 234 – across from Parsons Farm – and would stretch from the Prince William County school division’s Edward L. Kelly Leadership Center to Independent Hill Drive and Bristow Road.

Elm Street Development Vice President Joe Jacobs said the 60-acre site would include 190 single-family homes on lots of about one-quarter acre, some of which would be pipestem-style lots, as well as a 12-acre commercial center. The latter would include a 30,000-square-foot office building, space for stores and restaurants and a 10,000-square-foot day care center. The shopping center would be located at the corner of Independent Hill Drive and Va. 234.

Elm Street is familiar with the area. It developed the nearby Ashland subdivision in the late 1990s and early 2000s.

Jacobs said the new development would also include a few “pocket parks,” including one with a gazebo, as well as trails and green spaces.

The retail center would be designed with the pandemic in mind and would include a large outdoor plaza,

Jacobs said.

“We’re all learning to live with COVID as we need to do,” he said.

“What we’d like to do is create an outdoor eating plaza.”

The development would include a path from the Kelly Leadership Center to the shopping center. Walking paths or sidewalks would also connect the Va. 234 path to George Hellwig Park, which would be across from the new subdivision along Bristow Road.

The homes would be likely be priced in the mid-$600,000 range, Jacobs said, based on the current prices for new single-family homes in Prince William County and assuming a 5% annual appreciation rate.

Under the shortest possible timeline, which would require that the county board approve the project by early next year, the homes wouldn’t be ready until about 2023. The entire development would likely take 10 years to build out, Jacobs said.

School board opposes the development

The Prince William County School Board signaled its opposition to the first reiteration of the project – which proposed 134 single-family and 65 townhomes – because it would generate an estimated 126 schoolchildren for area schools, which are already near or overcapacity. Coles Elementary, built for 368 students, had 412 enrolled last school year. Benton Middle was at 98% capacity with 1,434 students, while Colgan, built for 2,053 students, was 733 students overcapacity with an enrollment of 2,786, according to school division documents.

Using the school division’s generation factors, the subdivision would generate about the same number of students with the proposed 190 homes. The school board generally opposes all new developments that would further overcrowd local schools.

Jacobsen noted that a new high school – the 14th – is already being planned to open in the next several years, although the school board has yet to secure a site.

SUBMITTED

Some residents asked if Jacobs would consider fewer homes built on larger lots. He said the proposed number–190— is needed to pay for the estimated $5 million in infrastructure improvements his company is pledging, including laying 2 miles of sewer line to both the mixed-use development and Parsons Business Park and adding turn lanes from Va. 234 to the business park and Independent Hill Drive.

Regarding the effect of COVID-19 on commercial developments, Jacobs said the company is confident the demand for what he called “neighborhood retail” will remain, COVID-19 or not. The office building, he said, is envisioned to provide office space for dentists or doctors or other professionals.

“We believe people will still need places to buy their groceries and places to shop and will still want to eat at restaurants,” he said.

Vega said the new proposal is an improvement from the possible 620 new homes called for in the original Independent Hill Small Area Plan.

“You would have seen several hundred, maybe a thousand angry residents come out if someone had come forward with up to 620 mixeduse housing units for this area, which is what staff originally proposed,” Vega said in a Thursday email. “It’s way out of character for this area.

Even the [county staff’s] revised plan of up to 270 is too high considering the rural character of the surroundskysthelimitdmv20@gmail.com

Residents voice concerns

Independent Hill residents attending the town hall expressed reservations about everything from the planned density of the development to whether the commercial space would ever be filled.

One resident talked about the odor that sometimes emanates from the landfill and the impact that might have on both home sales and the commercial area.

“I’m concerned the [landfill] smell wouldn’t support the businesses especially the restaurants,” he said. “I certainly wouldn’t want to eat there. I don’t think the smell will support the [home] values in the community either.”

A total of 190 single-family homes and a shopping center are being proposed for the area. ing area and the major problem with overcrowding just down the road at Colgan High School.”

Vega said she thought that 190 units “with ample buffering and without access from Bristow Road” was a good “middle ground.” Still, she said her work with the developer will likely continue.

“I heard from many of my constituents last night that even 190 might be a bit high. I much prefer this plan to what county government has proposed, and I know my constituents would prefer 190 over 270 or 620, but we may still have a little bit of work to do on it,” Vega wrote.

It’s not yet known when the rezoning application will go before either the planning commission or the board of supervisors.

More than 800 COVID-19 complaints investigated since July, no fines yet

By Aileen M. Streng Contributing Writer

The Prince William Health District received more than 800 complaints since July about businesses not complying with the state’s requirements about face coverings, maintaining social distancing and limiting large gatherings. But officials have yet to issue fines or revoke licenses, according to the local health district.

In July, when Virginia’s Phase 3 guidelines went into effect, the health district received 517 complaints. In August it received 291, said Patrick Jones, the health district’s environmental manager.

“The Prince William Health District’s first goal is educating the business owners of the Executive Orders and then following up with site visits as needed for repeated violations,” Jones said. “The business owners and establishments have been cooperating and responding well to the Executive Orders.

“We now have the support and assistance from [the state’s Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control] and the Department of Labor, so as we continue to follow up and monitor establishments we will reach out to these agencies as well,” he said.

Jones said the district has not had to use their assistance so far but will if needed. ABC can suspend establishments’ alcohol and beverage licenses, and the Department of Labor can issue fines.

“I will be contacting our representative with the Department of Labor to see what other actions they can take,” Jones said.

The environmental health staff conducted more than 165 spot-check inspections and more than 200 phone calls for educational outreach VA. 28, from page 1 “We don’t want to go down this path, get turned down by the Army Corps of Engineers and then don’t have anything ready,” said Wheeler, D-At Large. “That’s why we’re initiating the comp plan amendment, to have a backup plan.”

After endorsing the bypass, the county board voted unanimously Sept. 8 to add a proposed widening of the existing Va. 28 to the county’s long-term planning blueprint known as the “comprehensive plan.” At an estimated $400 million, widening Va. 28 would cost about $100 million more than the bypass.

Wheeler has called widening Va. 28 a “plan B” in case the bypass is rejected.

Supervisor Kenny Boddye, D-Occoquan, shared similar concerns about whether the bypass would receive its federal permits. Boddye said in an email the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers’ permitting process “is not without risk.”

“We must have an alternative in mind if the Army Corps denies the permit application. Increased costs with complying with a conditional approval are also a possibility,” Boddye said.

Prince William County Transportation Director Ric Canizales said he is “confident” the bypass will receive the permits, however.

Canizales said that the county has been working with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers on the project to learn how to properly mitigate the environmental impacts of the bypass.

“We’ve been working on this project for three years, probably about

during the month of August. The spot inspections were focused on establishments with bars, establishments with multiple complaints and new establishments, Jones said.

“The majority of the establishments were in compliance at the time of site visits, and the minor violations – tables not 6 feet apart, tables not 6 feet from the bar, and employees improperly wearing their masks/face covering – were corrected at the time of the site visit,” Jones said. “No further enforcement action has been required at this time.”

In July, the staff conducted 109 spot-check inspections focused on establishments with bars and those with “multiple complaints.”

Also in August, the staff conducted 23 virtual phone inspections on the updated virtual inspection report, which focused on updated guidelines, food-risk factors, employee health and food safety practices during COVID-19.

The complaints, which were reported through the Virginia Health Department’s online complaint portal, included: • 93 about restaurants • 78 about brick-and-mortar retail • 60 about grocery/convenience stores • 25 about office building, gas stations, auto shops, car dealerships, daycares, hotels, schools • 21 about exercise/fitness facilities • 11 about personal grooming and medical offices • 3 about religious services To lodge a complaint, visit https://redcap.vdh. virginia.gov/redcap/surveys/?s=Y4P9H7DTWA or online complaint portal.

For specific state guidelines and requirements for all businesses in Phase III of reopening, vis-

a year and a half of it with the [U.S] Army Corps of Engineers,” Canizales said. “They have been very helpful in telling us how we can mitigate our impacts and how we can do things in order to get this road built. So, I feel very confident that we’ll get our permits.”

Canizales said environmental mitigation in the area may include restoring Flat Branch stream to fix chronic flooding, or by purchasing “wetland mitigation credits.” The credits preserve wetlands in another location as a way of mitigating damage the new bypass would cause to Flat Branch stream. Canizales added that regardless of what type of mitigation occurs, the bypass will improve the flooding in the area.

“For the environment, at the end of the day, for the homes that are still out there in that floodplain, it’s going to better their situation,” Canizales said.

Anna Lawston of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Warrenton Field Office said she couldn’t provide specific information about the county’s Va. 28 bypass project. However, Lawston said that for road projects like the bypass, the U.S. Army Corps typically works with the applicant to try to get them to find the least environmentally damaging practicable alternative, also known as “LEDPA.” If the county’s 404 permit application cannot convince the Corps the bypass is the least environmentally damaging practicable alternative to achieve the project’s purpose, the permit can be denied, Lawston said.

Still, Lawston said there are some projects where environmental impacts can’t be avoided entirely.

“Sometimes there are projects where it’s just not avoidable. They’re going to have some. What impacts that they can’t avoid or minimize, they’ll compensate for. They’ll provide mitigation for,” Lawston said.

Many of the residents who live near Flat Branch stream in Manassas are opposed to the bypass over concerns it would exacerbate the area’s flooding issues. Carol Frye, whose property backs up to the stream, said any time there’s a heavy rain she gets up to 4 feet of water -- “chest deep” -- rushing through her backyard.

“I’ve had canoes wash down from the road up above. I’ve had campers wash down. Dog houses,” Frye said.

“We keep sandbags on hand. You always have to be prepared.”

Frye said she is worried the bypass would only make the flooding problem worse.

Kim Hosen, executive director of the Prince William Conservation Alliance, said the organization is opposed to the bypass because of its potential environmental impacts, including the existing flooding problems along Flat Branch.

“There are significant flooding problems down there. I think the county would be wise to evaluate the existing conditions there, what is causing the flooding problems,” Hosen said. “I think that’s been needed to be done for years.”

Hosen, a former Prince William County Planning commissioner, said the federal permits are still “a big question mark.”

“How can a teacher do both?

How can I be attending to the 12 to 15 kids in that classroom as well as however many kids they give to us online?” she said. “That’s the question we keep asking: How do they expect us to do dual?”

Scott said many teachers have yet to hear from principals about whether they will be exempted from in-person learning because of pre-existing health conditions or vulnerable family members.

Finally, if the school division follows through with the hybrid plan, most students would have only nine days of school in November due to Election Day, Veterans Day and the Thanksgiving holiday. December is also a short month because of winter break.

“So they’re going to risk the students’ and staff’s lives, and the lives of the people in this community for nine days? … Even with only the special education students in school, COVID still came into the buildings,” Scott said, referring the more than 50 cases already logged among students and staff. “COVID is just walking up and down the street and will get into our buildings.”

Lawmakers limit traffic stops, searches based on marijuana

By Ned Oliver

Virginia Mercury

Legislation banning police from initiating searches based on the smell of marijuana and making traffic stops for an array of minor infractions is heading to Gov. Ralph Northam’s desk after clearing the General Assembly on Friday.

The bill is among the first in a wide-ranging package of police reforms to win final passage in the House and Senate during a special legislative session that began in August.

“A disproportionate number of people pulled over for minor traffic offenses tend to be people of color, this is a contributor to the higher incarceration rate among minorities,” said Del. Patrick Hope, D-47th, of Arlington, who carried the bill in the House. Sen. Louise Lucas, D-18th, of Portsmouth, carried the legislation in the Senate.

If signed by Northam, the laws would prohibit police from making traffic stops when they see vehicles with non-functioning brake and tail lights, a broken or loud exhaust system, tinted windows, objects dangling from a rearview mirror, someone smoking in a car with a minor present or a state inspection that is less than four months past its expiration date.

The violations remain on the books, but police could only issue

citations if a driver is stopped for a more serious infraction, such as speeding or reckless driving. The legislation also reduces jaywalking to a secondary offense.

Lawmakers argued police often use the violations as a pretext to stop and search people they suspect of other crimes, enabling racial profiling.

The law also bars police from searching people or their vehicles when they say they smell marijuana — a practice that has been the subject of long-running complaints among public defenders and defense lawyers both in Virginia and around the country. Last year, a New York judge grew so fed up with hearing the justification in court that she openly accused police of lying, writing in an opinion that “the time has come to reject the canard of marijuana emanating from nearly every vehicle subject to a traffic stop.”

The legislation cleared both chambers over strong opposition from Republican lawmakers, who have called the Democrats’ police reform agenda an affront to the law enforcement community. “I feel we’re villainizing our police departments,” said Sen. Bill DeSteph, R-8th, of Virginia Beach.

Meanwhile police have argued the bill will make roads more dangerous and hamper their investigations.

“Does anybody really think that

it’s appropriate or safe for a vehicle on Interstate 95 to be travelling without tail lights at 11 at night?”

Roanoke County Police Chief Howard Hall said last month. “Does anybody not think that law enforcement should deal with that situation?”

On Friday, lawmakers also gave final passage to legislation that would allow the attorney general’s office to open investigations into police departments that engage in discriminatory practices. The bill was filed

by Lucas, who had unsuccessfully attempted to get the Department of Justice to investigate the Portsmouth Police Department’s hiring practices. She argued that because the DOJ

under Trump has not pursued such pattern and practice investigations, the state should step in to fill the investigatory gap.

The day before the legislative session began, Portsmouth police filed criminal charges against Lucas alleging she conspired to damage a Confederate statue, though she has not publicly suggested she believes the decision was linked to her proposed legislation.

Lawmakers are still debating legislation that would establish civilian review boards, create a mental-health emergency response protocol, ban chokeholds and create a statewide code of conduct for police.

New poll shows voters support police reform

By Megan Lee

Capital News Service

Virginia voters strongly support police reform, according to poll by the Wason Center for Public Policy poll at Christopher Newport University released Sept. 29.

The poll surveyed 796 registered Virginia voters by landline and cell phone. The Wason Center is 95% confident that the projected populations of those surveyed in this poll are accurate within a 3.9% margin of error, said Wason Center Research Lab Director Rebecca Bromley-Trujillo.

Of those surveyed, 29% identify as Republicans, 34% as Democrats and 32% as Independents. The remaining 6% had no preference, identified with another party or did not respond.

Bromley-Trujillo said the center chose to focus on two key issues among voters: police reform and the pandemic. The poll asked about police reform opinions in response to the civil unrest seen across the country since May. Protests began around the nation after the death of George Floyd and in response to a series of fatal encounters between police and Black individuals. Protests swelled again recently after a grand jury did not indict any officers in the death of Kentucky woman Breonna Taylor. The protests have demanded more accountability within police operations.

More than 90% of respondents supported de-escalation training for police, requiring police body cameras and mandating that police officers intervene when a colleague uses unlawful force.

A majority of Republicans say police are either excellent or good regarding the equal treatment of racial and ethnic groups, while a low percentage of Democrats agree (62%-9%). Females rated police lower on this question than males.

When asked if civilian oversight boards should be created to investigate police misconduct, 70% of voters supported the proposal.

Just over 75% of voters supported requiring police departments to publicly report incidents involving the use of force and establishing public databases to track police officers found responsible for misconduct.

“I was somewhat surprised by the level of agreement on some of the police reform measures,” Bromley-Trujillo said. “Though the public is very polarized, there are still places where they show agreement.”

Voters are also divided when it comes to allowing civilians to sue police officers for excessive force or misconduct (52% say it should be allowed and 44% say it should not be). Voters narrowly oppose banning police use of military-grade weapons (50%-47%).

Recent state legislation reflects this voter interest in police reform and criminal justice. Bills establishing a statewide system that pairs teams of mental health professionals and peer recovery specialists with police officers and the automatic expungement of certain convictions are examples of legislation that have advanced in the Virginia General Assembly in the last two months.

GUZMAN, from page 1 A native of Peru, Guzman came to the U.S. in the 1990s as a single mother who worked three minimum wage jobs to support her young daughter before eventually taking classes at Northern Virginia Community College and then earning a bachelor’s degree and then two master’s degrees.

Guzman now lives in Dale City with her husband, Carlos, her mother and the couple’s four children.

“I came to this country as a 25-yearold single mother with $300 to my name, and I had to work three minimum wage jobs with no health care and no paid sick days just to afford a one-bedroom apartment,” Guzman said. “But my struggle is not unique to immigrants, and millions of Virginia families are living paycheck to paycheck, just barely getting by.”

Guzman is in her second term in the Virginia House of Delegates, where she represents parts of Prince William and Fauquier counties in the 31st District.

Now, Guzman says she’ll forgo a run for a third term in 2021 to pursue the state’s second-highest elected post.

She said she’s taking the step mostly because she believes the state Senate, over which the lieutenant governor presides, needs more progressive voice.

Guzman, who’s earned a reputation as one of the General Assembly’s most progressive members, said it has been frustrating to see the state Senate either water down or kill some of what she considers her most consequential bills, including those allowing collective bargaining rights, raising the minimum wage and requiring larger companies to offer their employees paid sick leave.

The Democratic-controlled General Assembly has made progress on the first two issues. Beginning later this year, public employee can bargain collectively if their governing bodies agree. Also, the state’s $7.25 minimum wage will rise to $9.50 in May and is on a trajectory to reach $15 by 2026. But the increases leave out domestic and farm workers and won’t rise above $12 an hour unless reaffirmed by state lawmakers before 2024.

Guzman’s paid sick leave bill was shot down by the state Senate during this year’s ongoing special session, which was called in part to help Virginians deal with a global pandemic.

“It’s clear to me that while Virginia is [ranked] number one for businesses, it is not for workers,” Guzman said in an interview Sunday.

“In my interactions with the Senate it became clear to me there was not a champion who could say they understand what Virginia families are going through in the pandemic,” she added. “I know what it’s like to leave a sick child at home because you have to work and earn a paycheck. That’s a reality for many Virginia families right now, and I felt the

Senate was not listening to the working class.

Although Guzman said she has been thinking about announcing her candidacy since last summer, since last summer, the failure of her paid sick leave bill renewed her sense of urgency.

“I knew I had to do it because If I don’t, these voiceless communities are voiceless in the state Senate,” she said.

If elected, Guzman said she plans to use the role to promote progressive legislation and influence policy as chair of several state commissions.

“The lieutenant govern has to be prepared to become the governor in case of an emergency,” she added, citing her experience in public administration and in the state legislature. “I understand how the legislative process works, and I can say I have the qualifications to take that role if necessary.”

Regarding her work as a state delegate, Guzman said she is most proud of her collective bargaining bill and her three-year effort to increase from the age at which minors must be tried as an adult from 14 to 16.

Guzman faces three fellow Democrats in her party’s primary for the lieutenant governor’s race, including Del. Hala Ayala, who represents the neighboring 51st District in Prince William County. Ayala and Guzman became the first Latinas elected to the Virginia House of Delegates in 2017.

Other Democratic contenders include political newcomer Xavier Warren, an Arlington resident and NFL sports agent, and Paul Goldman, an attorney and former chairman of the Democratic Party of Virginia who has been active in Richmond politics in recent years.

Prince William County School Board Chairman Dr. Babur Lateef (At Large) has said he is considering a run but has not yet formally entered the race.

On the Republican side, former state delegate Tim Hugo, of Fairfax County, announced his candidacy via Twitter on Monday. He joined previously declared candidates Puneet Ahluwalia, a Northern Virginia business consultant who immigrated from India; Del. Glenn Davis, R-84th, of Virginia Beach; and Lance Allen, an Air Force vet and former foster child who now lives in Fauquier County and works for a Northern Virginia national security and technology firm.

Regarding her Democratic opponents, including Ayala, Guzman said anyone has a right to run for any elected office. But she said she believes her experience in a district that includes both suburban Prince William and the more rural Fauquier counties sets her apart.

“I think I’ve shown I am a fighter,” Guzman said. “…I’ve never been afraid to stand up and speak out when I see something wrong, and I’ve shown that.”

OPINION WWW.PRINCEWILLIAMTIMES.COM

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Data centers must stay in their zone and out of the rural crescent At present, it’s difficult to recall a time when citizens and local government worked collaboratively. Yet, in 2016, that rare event did indeed occur. When an Amazon Data Center’s need for power in the western end of the county resulted in chaos, thousands of residents joined together to ensure Amazon’s “extension cord” caused the least amount of damage to residents, small businesses, the environment and our historical assets.

Citizens understood it was important to be proactive to ensure we had an updated planning strategy, not only to protect their interests but the data center industry as well.

Born of that endeavor was the “Data Center Opportunity Zone.”

The adoption of the first-ever data center overlay district began when the board of supervisors passed a directive in August 2015 to craft an overlay district and required the draft include all relevant stakeholders to include the county planning staff, the Coalition to Protect PWC, Dominion Energy, the Northern Virginia Technology Council and the Prince William Chamber of Commerce.

When Chris Price, county planning director at the time, presented the results, he noted, “We stuck a balance, between community and business interest.”

The overlay district’s intent is to streamline the permitting process and invite data center businesses to areas compatible with surrounding uses and that contain the requisite infrastructure.

As recently as September, the

old Stonehaven project, which engendered extensive community opposition, was quickly rezoned for data center use as it was within the overlay district. That approval process demonstrated the data center overlay district has been a success.

The district encompasses more than 10,000 acres in industrial areas with access to the appropriate infrastructure. We can applaud the results of the hard work demonstrated by the community, government, data centers and yes, even developers.

And yet, a mere four years later, a cascade of data center applications are suddenly proposed outside the overlay district even though these proposals will bring new transmission lines, substations and other costly infrastructure investments.

Most troubling are new data center applications within the rural crescent, at a time when the county and its residents are exploring strategies to highlight our unique rural assets, including by creating the first-ever “agritourism and arts overlay district.” One has to question the wisdom of proposing industrial uses in the rural crescent.

The process resulting in the Data Center Opportunity Zone was a model for how government, citizens, and business can work collectively towards a mutually beneficial goal.

Let’s honor that positive example, rather than seek ways to diminish that hard-earned success.

A passion for plants

PHOTOS BY CARSON MCRAE/MCRAE VISUAL MEDIA

Priscilla Aviles is ready at any moment to have a conversation on her favorite topic – beautiful plants.

New in Warrenton, Prissylily Co. offers houseplants and more

By John Hagarty

Contributing Writer

Prissylily Co. swung open its garden gates in September to launch a botanical garden-like shop in Old Town Warrenton. The timing could not have been better.

Sales of house and office plants have soared during COVID-19 and for a good reason. There is ample scientific evidence that such plants reduce stress. The therapeutic effects of caring for plants can even lower blood pressure.

The “plant doctor” overseeing these benefits is a young entrepreneur whose passion for plants dates to three years ago. Priscilla Aviles, 27, and her hard-to-contain joy in growing and gifting plants to family and friends led to the shop’s opening at 30 S. Third St. Initially, the company was created in 2013 as an online retailer of apparel and sunglasses. But soon, Aviles’ passion for plants took root and gave birth to a shift from the hyper-competitive field of apparel sales to a niche business where her expertise could be brought to bear.

Aviles’ joy in growing plants became the center of her life. “I began propagating them and creating more and more. I started giving them away to friends and family. Some might say I overdid it because I was getting comments like, ‘OK Priscilla, we have enough plants!’” said Aviles, laughing.

That’s when her entrepreneurial streak struck green. In 2018, she launched plant sales on both Etsy and her apparel website. From her original offering of six plants, the business evolved and broadened to include even rare and collector plants.

Aviles quickly recognized the strategy shift

"I get excited to come in every day and see how my plants are doing."

PRISCILLA AVILES

had opened up a new customer base. A lot of her buyers were from the Washington D.C. metropolitan area. An increasing number began asking if she had a shop or a greenhouse to come to and buy the plants.

The move to a brick-and-mortar business was driven by listening to her customers. She found the location in Old Town and “jumped at the opportunity to open a store.”

Her successful life in plants is paralleling her personal life. She was engaged to be married in July, but COVID-19 postponed the ceremony. She and her fiancé, Joseph Rose, independently own townhouses that are now on the market because they have jointly purchased a home in Warrenton.

As a future married woman, the surname Rose will be fitting for a purveyor of plants.

Her assistant in the shop is Molly, who is also Aviles’ future sister-in-law.

In addition to the shop, Aviles still sells online and through Esty. The product line for all three venues includes plants, apparel, sunglasses and more. But the heart of the business is indoor plants.

Stock in trade

As you enter the Prissylily Co., your eye will sweep across a landscape of more than 100 plants. Asked what a shopper might typically find, Aviles’ immediate response is, “Beautiful plants!” Of course.

That beauty includes plants with intriguing

Prissylilly’s Collector’s Corner features some rare and exotic plants. Cacti are among the offerings.

Warrenton’s new plant shop is located at 30 S. Third St. names such as the Burle Marx Philodendron, Staghorn Fern, Starfish, Snake, Dwarf Fiddle Leaf, Africa Mask Peacock, Corkscrew, Black Jade Birds Nest, Samurai Draft, various cactuses, and more. Rare and collector plants come from Thailand and other points worldwide.

Prices range from $20 for the common variety plants up to $1,500 for collectibles like the Monstera Albo Variegated. Exotics and collectibles may not always be in stock.

In addition to in-store sales, the company also sells office plants with maintenance contracts for those who have “black thumbs.” Office plants bring the beauty of nature indoors, increase productivity, boost creativity and provide a wow factor to what otherwise could be a dreary office environment.

Aviles takes a holistic approach in creating an interior plant office plan that meets space and budgetary needs. The process begins with a free on-site consultation. She then develops a customized proposal to ensure the plants’ survival.

The service includes fast and clean installation as well as maintenance packages if desired.

All shop plant sales come with care instructions. Consideration is being given to conducting classes on plant care, repotting, and more, so customers can better care for their purchases.

Aviles’ advice to anyone considering striking out on their own is, “If it’s something you are passionate about and love, then you should go for it.

Because then it doesn’t feel like work. I get excited to come in every day and see how my plants are doing,” said Aviles.

Blazing a new trail Occoquan opens Tanyard Hill Park Trail

By Aileen M. Streng Contributing Writer

The Tanyard Hill Park Trail, at the corner of Tanyard and Old Bridge roads, recently opened for runners, hikers and walkers.

About a dozen volunteers from the Prince William Trails and Streams Coalition and Occoquan residents spent three hours Sept. 28 marking and clearing the trail and picking up trash.

“The results far exceeded expectations,” said Occoquan Mayor Earnie Porta said. “While there is substantial finishing work to do over the coming months, the trail route is now identifiable and suitable for use.”

The 17-acre Tanyard Hill property, which is outside the town limits, was purchased by the town in 2014. In 2011 and 2012, a developer proposed building an office building and a house on the property, a move that was opposed by the town of Occoquan.

“Our concern was two-fold: more cut-through traffic because of the office building and increased flooding because it would no longer be wooded with an office building

on it,” Porta said.

A stream on the Tanyard Hill property flows into Ballywhack Creek.

Ballywhack Creek runs downstream and crosses Tanyard Hill Road near the town and is prone to flooding.

The Tanyard Hill property was also getting runoff from other nearby development, Porta said.

The town and the county offered to pay the developer $300,000 to put the 17 acres in a conservation easement, which would also earn the developer tax deductions and tax credits. The developer declined.

The project went before the Prince William Board of County Supervisors for a special-use permit. The supervisors approved the permit but construction never took place.

In 2014, the town offered to buy the property for $300,000 and placed it in a conservation easement. The property can never be developed, but trails are permitted.

The new trail, which runs in a loop just over half a mile, winds through the wooded parcel and includes several easy stream crossings and sever-

About 12 volunteers from the Prince William Trails and Streams Coalition as well as Occoquan residents marked and cleared the Tanyard Hill Park Trail on Sept. 28. al changes in elevation, Porta said.

The trail is accessible from the corner of Tanyard Hill and Old Bridge roads. There are no signs yet marking it, and no public parking.

However, there is a small graveled area across Tanyard Hill on private property that is being used for very limited parking.

But the trail has been used. Porta said he got an email from a man who took his dog on the trail and expressed interest in adopting it. Porta said he appreciated the sentiment but noted it is too soon to put the trail in an Adopt-A-Trail program.

Some work still needs to be done,

such as blazing the trail by marking trees to identify the path.

The trail is part of the Occoquan Greenway Trail that, when complete, will run from Prince William County’s James J. McCoart government complex to the town of Occoquan.

Four miles of the route are open to the public between Springwoods and Cotton Mill drives in Lake Ridge. A total of 6.5 miles are still in the planning stage, according to the Prince William County Department of Parks and Recreation.

WAS I IN THE PHILIPPINES OR MARKHAM? Thompson Wildlife Management Area offers acres of forested lushness

By Peter Brewington Times Staff Writer

Most people who head to Markham like to stop at Stribling Orchard or Hartland Farm, where apples, peaches and berries grow, and can be picked as part of a family outing.

While those farms are sizable, one of the largest pieces of public land in Fauquier County looms just nearby, the G. Richard Thompson Wildlife Management Area, which takes up some 4,000 acres in Fauquier, Warren and Clarke counties.

My wife, Lisa, and I went for a hike at Thompson this summer, and found a more remote hiking experience than you’d see at neighboring Sky Meadows State Park.

We drove down Leeds Manor Road to Lake Thompson, then used a cellphone photo I’d taken of the trail map on Thompson’s website to navigate a semi-strenuous 2½-hour route that took us up to the Appalachian Trail for a half-mile, then back down to the other side of the lake.

The first 90 minutes were continually uphill. On an 88-degree day, that could have been brutal, but the canopy of mature forest kept the sun off us for the most part, and the climb was never agonizingly steep.

After passing behind a winery, the trail followed an old logging road, allowing us to walk side-byside. We hit the Appalachian Trail and turned right on it for 20 minutes, then hit another junction and headed down.

For the last part of the trail, we felt like we were in the Philippines or New Guinea. Lush vegetation brushed our legs, causing Lisa to periodically check for ticks. I found one crawling on my shoes earlier in the hike.

We descended to find a solo fisherman on the lake, two girls packing up a boat, and a family lingering near the waterside.

Our conclusion was that this was a far different hiking experience then nearby Sky Meadows. It was more forested, more remote, less populated and with a lot less signage.

Virginia Department of Game and Inland Fisheries staff regularly visit the Wildlife Management Area (WMA), focusing their activities on updating signage, road maintenance and law enforcement, said the VDGIF’s Joe Ferdinandsen, who co-manages the site as well as the C.F. Phelps Wildlife Management Area in southern Fauquier County, and several others.

“We don’t offer the amenities of a state park or local or national park.

We offer the same experience. We’re

THOMPSON INFO

Visitors need day passes ($4 per person) or a valid Virginia hunting or fishing license to visit Thompson.

Here are some helpful links.

- Hunting and fishing licenses: www.dgif.virginia.gov - Access permits: https://www.dgif. virginia.gov/access-permit/ - Thompson WMA general info: https://www.dgif.virginia.gov/wma/ thompson/ - Note: On July 1 the Virginia Department of Game and Inland Fisheries became the Department of Wildlife Resources, and the links will remain valid.

How do I get to Thompson?

Thompson Wildlife Management Area in northwestern Fauquier County has multiple access points and is easily accessible off Rt. 66. Perhaps the most prominent spot to fish or hike is at Thompson Lake. To get there from Haymarket, take Rt. 66 to Exit 18 in Markham. Turn right on Leeds Manor Road Rt. 688) and drive 3.7 miles to the entrance on the left. not as facility intensive,” said Ferdinandsen, who noted there are no trail markings other than the white blazes of the Appalachian Trail, which runs for about 3 miles along the upper portion of the property.

But the WMA, purchased mostly in 1971, is multi-dimensional.

Besides hunting, fishing, hiking and horseback riding, its lands are legendary to native plant lovers, who come from around the world for the spring trilliums, accessed from the upper parking areas in Linden. From late April to early May, white, pink and lavender trilliums blanket almost 2 square miles of forest floor.

“The wildflower folks are regular and avid visitors. In the middle of deer season, a nice day will bring a large crowd. The stocked trout fishing at the lake, which offers wonderful scenery, especially during the fall and winter, is convenient for many anglers in Northern Virginia.

It has a pretty broad appeal,” said Ferdinandsen.

The lake is classified as a Category A trout water and sees eight stockings between Oct. 1 and May 31. As far as hiking or hunting, the size of the WMA makes it easier to be alone.

Ferdinandsen isn’t sure exactly how many visitors Thompson gets, saying he’d have to check a 10-year old study, but he appreciates the attention.

“Thanks for getting the word out.

Papers don’t always mention our areas,” added Ferdinandsen.

COURTESY PHOTOS

With multiple smallish access points just off Rt. 66 in Linden and Markham, the Thompson Wildlife Management Area is highly accessible, but still feels amazingly remote. The biggest draws are the lake, the trillium flowers in the spring and the hunting in deer season. That’s a morel mushroom at upper left and trillium in the middle.

OBITUARIES

OBITUARIES John Scott Meredith Wayland It is with a heavy heart that we share the passing of John Scott Meredith Wayland, 90, of Warrenton. After a long and lingering illness, he left this ever changing world on Wednesday, September 30, 2020, returning into the arms of God and his ancestors.

To us, and many more, John was an inspiration. He was a kind, honest man with a compassionate heart that showed him right from wrong and led him to dedicate his life to serving others. He was a “friendly face” and couldn’t go anywhere without running into someone he knew.

John was born July 25, 1930, in Crozet, Va. He was the youngest son of Fred G. Wayland Sr. and Sarah Clarke Meredith Wayland.

The family moved to Hume when he was 18 months old. Through the years, the family would return to Crozet to help with the harvests at Wayland Orchard owned by his uncle George Bourne Wayland. Some of the happiest times of his childhood were the years they lived at Fairfield Farm, when his father was the farm manager for Baroness Johanna von Reininghaus Lambert of Belgium. However, it is there that he watched his black friends walk to school while he was allowed to ride the bus. That stung his heart, stayed with him for life and was the motivation to offer a hand up, especially to those who didn’t deserve poor treatment and discrimination because of their skin color.

After graduating from Randolph-Macon Academy, John earned a B.S. in Dairy Science from Virginia Tech in 1959. He took a break during his college education to serve in the U.S. Army as a military policeman at Fort Monroe, Va. From the late 1950s to early 1960s, John traveled around the state, first as a meat inspector and then as a dairy inspector.

In 1963, John returned to Warrenton to work in the family business, Wayland Ford Tractor, and eventually took it over from his father. He became “the tractor man.” His CB handle was “Big Blue,” and the color green, which represented Ford’s competitor, wasn’t to be found anywhere in his home or wardrobe for decades. Even the kitchen counters sported a bright blue in the family home on Airlie Road. Wayland Ford was the place where kids had fond memories of running around the lot or sitting on monster tractors when their parents ran errands for tractor parts. John was often spotted in snowstorms, plowing out his neighbors’ driveways. During the snowstorm of 1982, he plowed his way through town in the largest tractor, with the family piled into the cab, up to Marshall and out Route 688 to dig out his parents.

John was a true man of integrity, devoted to civic life and community service. John served as one of the original directors of the Fauquier Community Action Committee from 1965 until 1985. With Roland Tapscott and Max Tufts Sr., he in 1968 formed Fauquier Housing Inc. (now Foothills Housing Corp.) to meet a growing need for affordable housing, with the goal of ensuring every home had indoor plumbing in a still segregated Fauquier County. The organization expanded into five additional counties. Foothills still provides healthy, affordable rental housing, repairs and builds houses for low- to moderate-income families and helps with financial counseling.

For more than five decades, John was very active in the community, serving as president and a board member of the Leeds Ruritan Club and the Warrenton Ruritan Club, president of the Warrenton Chamber of Commerce, president of the Kiwanis Club, a Sunday School teacher at St. Andrews Mission, a director of the Mental Health Association of Fauquier County and a life member of the Warrenton Jaycees.

John volunteered thousands of hours at fundraisers, including calling bingo games at the Warrenton Armory on weekends for Kiwanis Club, working at the annual Hume barbecue and jousting tournament for the Ruritan Club and parking cars at the annual Delaplane Strawberry Festival at Sky Meadows State Park. In September 1989, when Hurricane Hugo devasted much of South Carolina, John went on the radio to ask for donations to help folks there, and the community responded, donating supplies that filled two tractor-trailers driven there overnight as part of the massive relief effort.

His service earned many honors, including The Fauquier County Chamber of Commerce 1990 Business Person of the Year Award, a Certificate of Public Recognition from the American Legion and The Tom Downing Fellow from the Ruritan National Foundation in 2019 — the one that touched him the most.

Foothills Housing Corp. in 2017 rededicated The Oaks I Building in Warrenton, with 96 apartments, to him and to Mr. Tufts.

John is survived by his loving family, wife Malinda Isley Wayland, and daughter Janet Wayland of Arlington, his nephew Scott Wayland (Karolanne), numerous great nieces and nephews, and cousins Rev. David Wayland (Ginny) of Charlottesville and Bobby Nelson of Lynchburg.

In addition to his parents, John was preceded in death by his brother Fred G. Wayland, Jr. (Barbara) and niece Elizabeth Wayland.
