County: No answers yet on Va. 28 fix Bypass? Voters won’t know before the election

By Daniel Berti

Times Staff Writer

Prince William County officials won’t know which plan they’ll pursue to fix Va. 28 before voters head

to the polls Nov. 5 to cast ballots on a $355 million road bond for which the majority of the money – $200 million – would be dedicated to either widening or building a new bypass for the traffic-clogged roadway.

A final decision on the plan can’t be made until a Federal Highway Administration environmental assessment is completed to evaluate the potential social, economic and environmental effects associated with the proposed bypass.

The bypass project would extend Godwin Drive beyond its current ter-

minus at Va. 234 Business, or Sudley Road, to create a new road cutting through about four miles of mostly undeveloped land between the West Gate of Lomond and Yorkshire Park neighborhoods and alongside Flat Branch creek, a tributary of Bull Run. See VA. 28, page 4

Final debate reveals divisions

County board chair candidates clash on Jeff Davis Highway, ICE agreement, rural crescent

By Jill Palermo

Times Staff Writer

Extending Metro to Prince William, renaming Jefferson Davis Highway, preserving the rural crescent and the county’s agreement with federal immigration officials were among the hot-button issues four candidates for the county’s top elected post discussed during their last debate before Nov. 5 election.

The topics revealed divisions among the four vying to be the next chairman of the Prince William County Board of Supervisors: Republican nominee John Gray, Democratic nominee Ann Wheeler and independents Muneer Baig and Don Scoggins.

Hosted by the Prince William Chamber of Commerce and Northern Virginia Community College, the Oct. 8 debate also touched on the biggest controversy in the race so far: the discovery late last month of offensive tweets Gray deleted from his Twitter account. Among other things, Gray’s tweets used racial stereotypes to mock African American political protests and displayed anti-Muslim and anti-gay sentiments.

Gray again acknowledged the tweets were inappropriate and reiterated that he’d apologized, saying he’s “eaten humble pie” and has “beaten [him]self up about it.”

“Anybody who knows me absolutely knows that I am not a racist, I’m not a bigot or anything along See CANDIDATES, page 2

Where the candidates stand: Rename Jefferson Davis Highway?

Study Metro extension to Woodbridge?

Allow more development in the rural crescent?

Should PWC keep its 287(g) agreement with ICE?

CANDIDATES, from page 1 those lines,” he added. “I should have had better judgment, there’s no question. But I’ve apologized for it … and if anybody can’t accept that, it’s not my problem.”

Baig scolded Gray’s critics for “throwing dirt” on an opponent. “If Mr. Gray did something that hurt some families, going back and trying to hurt his family, as a retaliation to try to create some votes, is not the right strategy,” Baig said. “It’s wrong, it’s wrong, it’s wrong.”

Metro to Prince William?

Moderator Julie Carey, Northern Virginia bureau chief for NBC-News 4, asked whether the candidates support extending Metro into Prince William or whether they think there is “a better way to improve mass transit.”

Only Gray, the GOP nominee, said he does not support bringing Metro into Prince William. He said his main objection is cost and questioned whether Metro would bring jobs into the county.

“Bringing Metro here, which has been on the boards for 20 to 25 years, is not going to bring jobs here by itself,” Gray said. “We have to get the jobs here first.” Gray further said that he would attract businesses to the county by cutting tax rates but did not say which taxes or by how much.

Wheeler said the county should get behind a proposed federal study to determine what it would take to extend Metro into Prince William.

“I’d love to see the Blue Line come down to Woodbridge. And actually, it may not happen, but if we don’t study it, it definitely won’t happen,” Wheeler said. “It may take 20 years, but we have to start sometime.”

Both Baig and Scoggins said Metro would attract jobs.

“If we want businesses to come and locate in Prince William County, we have to build transportation infrastructure that supports it,” Baig said. “It’s not people [going] out of here, people can come into [the county] as well for jobs.”

Keep Jefferson Davis Highway?

Panelist Curtis Porter, of the Prince William County Human Rights Commission, asked the can-

didates if they would to seek permission from the Commonwealth Transportation Board to remove from the name of Jefferson Davis from U.S. 1, as Arlington County recently did.

Porter noted Davis was not a Virginian but rather a Mississippian who was also the president of the Confederacy and a proponent of slavery.

Only Wheeler, the Democratic nominee, said she would push to follow the lead of Arlington, Alexandria and Fairfax, which have already removed Davis’s name from the roadway.

Wheeler said not having Davis’s name on such a prominent road in eastern Prince William County “would improve the quality of life” for residents.

“This is a simple thing that we could do,” Wheeler said. “I understand [the concern about] political correctness, but a lot of people find the name of that road offensive, and I think we need to honor that.”

The other candidates, said changing the road’s name is not worth the effort or the cost.

“Changing the name of a road will not change anyone’s quality of life.

We’re going to have to spend tens of millions of dollars, because, again, where does it stop?” Gray said.

“Do we change Gar-Field Indians? Woodbridge Vikings? Stonewall Jackson Raiders? Patriot High School?

Battlefield? Where does it stop? Who makes those decisions? It’s not a decision that improves the quality of life in Prince William County.”

Scoggins said, “our political correctness is sort of getting out of hand” and said county leaders should concentrate on economic development.

Baig, meanwhile, expressed concerns that changing the road’s name would amount to “erasing history.”

“We can leverage this opportunity to educate. Why Jefferson Davis?

Why Robert E. Lee? We can put a plaque next to their statue[s] and tell what happened,” Baig said. “Our kids need to be educated about what happened in the past.”

Plans for the rural crescent

Asked about the county planning department’s recommendations for zoning changes in the rural crescent, which include a mix of ideas aimed at encouraging landowners to place land in conservation easements through various economic incentives, only Gray said the zoning should remain as-is.

Residential development is now limited to one home per 10 acres in more than 72,000 acres in the rural area, which arcs around the northwest rim of the county, stretching from the Quantico Marine Corps Base to the Manassas battlefield.

Gray said he would not change the existing zoning rules “because that’s what the residents want.”

Baig and Scoggins said they would go back to the drawing board. Baig said he sees problems with both the “purchase of development rights” and “transfer of development rights” programs that would boost landowners’ development rights from one home per 10 acres to one home per 5 acres or one home per 3 acres –depending on location -- and then allow them to be sold to the county or developers. In exchange, landowners would place their land in permanent conservation easements.

“Where is the money to buy those rights? There is no money,” Baig said of the proposed PDR program.

“When you transfer development rights to [developers on] the east side, it’s already pretty congested.”

Scoggins said the topic needs more study and should not be decided in an election year. “We’ve been talking about [the rural crescent] for 10-plus years, so [waiting] one or two more years is not a big deal. But I do want to see the rural crescent preserved.

It’s one of the gems of the county.”

Wheeler stopped short of saying she agrees with the staff proposal but said the status quo isn’t working.

Wheeler also said she’d like to see the county help farmers and better promote agritourism.

“While I appreciate that the staff did great things, they’ve had a lot of

pushback because no one is willing to say we need to actually do something different to save our rural land in the rural crescent,” she said.

ICE agreement

The candidates also clashed on Prince William County’s longstanding 287(g) agreement with Immigration and Customs Enforcement that trains and authorizes sheriff’s deputies at the Prince William County Adult Detention Center to check inmates’ immigration status and enforce ICE detainers.

The jail agrees to hold inmates for up to 48 hours longer than they normally would if ICE asks to pick them up from the jail to detain them on a civil warrant for violating federal immigration rules. Prince William is one of only two counties in Virginia that maintains a 287(g) agreement with ICE. Only Gray said he is “in full agreement” with keeping the 287(g) agreement, calling it a matter of public safety.

Wheeler said she would not support maintaining the agreement and rejected the idea that ending it would jeopardize public safety. Wheeler pointed out that all other Virginia counties except Prince William and Culpeper do not have such agreements and yet still lock up dangerous criminals.

“The 287(g) program, whether we have it or not, does not mean we don’t lock up serious criminals who have serious offenses,” she said.

Scoggins said he is wary of the program and said it has “too many flaws.”

Baig, himself an immigrant from Kashmir, called the program “a tool against immigrants.”

“We have come to a point where anybody who is an immigrant and has a status where they’re not fully documented -- even if they’ve been here 20, 30 years -- somehow they’re criminals,” Baig said. “We need to look at things from a human lens. At the end of the day, we’re all human.

Criminals belong in jails. … There is no doubt about that, and that’s what I will do. But at the same time, I will not allow families who are peaceful families to be broken apart … where a child is living here and the mother is sent across the border. I would not want somebody to do that to me and I will not do that to somebody else.”

Guns, minimum wage at issue in delegate forum

on

whether they would support universal background checks and closing the “gun show loophole,” a measure that was killed by Republicans in the General Assembly in January.

The state GOP postponed a second vote on universal background checks during a July special session called by Gov. Ralph Northam (D) to address gun violence in the wake of a mass shooting in Virginia Beach municipal building that left 12 people dead and four wounded.

Democrats Ayala and Guzman both said they support universal background checks for gun purchases. Ayala said she is “determined to work across the aisle to pass commonsense gun legislation solutions,” including expanding background checks.

“Republicans obstructed every piece of gun violence prevention legislation that was proposed this year,” Ayala said. “Real people’s lives are at risk because of the state’s lack of legislation around gun violence.”

Ayala co-patroned of a bill to require lost or stolen firearms to be reported to a local law-enforcement agency or the Virginia State Police within 24 hours.

The bill was killed by majority-Republican subcommittee in January.

Guzman said she would support

Four candidates vying for two seats on the Prince William Board of Supervisors agree the county will need a Metro stop in future years but clashed on other issues Oct. 10, including the local jail’s agreement with Immigration and Customs Enforcement, school funding.

During their first and only debate before the upcoming Nov. 5 election, incumbent Supervisor Ruth Anderson, R-Occoquan, and her Democratic challenger, Kenny Boddye, answered questions alongside two newcomers vying to fill the Potomac District supervisor’s seat: Democrat

Andrea Bailey and Republican Doug Taggart. Supervisor Maureen Caddigan, R-Potomac, who has served on the board for 28 years is not seeking re-election.

The forum was sponsored by the Committee of 100 and moderated by Uriah Kiser of Potomac Local, an online news site.

All four candidates say they support efforts to extend Metro into Prince William County, which would likely begin with a feasibility study.

For Anderson and Taggart, both Republicans, the stance on Metro differs from the one John Gray, their party’s nominee for board chairman, took during a debate at Northern Virginia Community College earlier in the

Times Staff Writer

Candidates running for state delegate in the 31st and 51st districts faced off on gun reform, increasing the minimum wage and Virginia’s right-to-work laws at a forum at Dar Al-Noor mosque.

Del. Elizabeth Guzman, D-31st, and Del. Hala Ayala, D-51st, the first Latinas ever elected to Virginia’s General Assembly, are aiming to hold onto newly won districts after being elected in 2017, when Democrats made sweeping gains in the state legislature.

Republican D.J. Jordan is challenging Guzman in the 31st District.

Richard Anderson, who held the 51st District seat from 2009 until his defeat by Ayala in 2017, is hoping to win his seat back this November.

The Oct. 10 debate was moderated by Stephen J. Farnsworth, professor of political science at the University of Mary Washington and director of its Center for Leadership and Media Studies and organized by the Prince William Area League of Women Voters and the Prince William Committee of 100.

“When we are losing lives, like what happened in Virginia Beach, where you don’t feel safe to go to work in a government building, it’s unacceptable,” Guzman said.

Jordan, Guzman’s Republican challenger, said he would “support increased background checks” for firearms, making him one of few state GOP candidates to endorse such a measure. Jordan said both

parties should come together “to discuss commonsense gun reform to keep people safe.”

“We should be able to do what Senator Tim Kaine did when he was a governor to bring both parties together after the Virginia Tech massacre to actually discuss solutions,” Jordan said.

week. Gray said he opposes extending Metro to Prince William mostly because of the cost to the county.

Bailey, a Brittany resident who runs her own event planning business, said county leaders should work to improve the local commuter bus and train systems in the interim.

Bailey called for “better equipment, salaries and benefits” for Potomac and Rappahannock Transportation Commission employees, who went on strike over the summer.

Anderson noted that Metro would not be viable until the county’s population grows enough to support it.

“The deal with Metro is that we do not have the density to support Metro and that is a fact,” Anderson said. “We have a lot of density to build up before we can get Metro.”

School funding

Regarding funding for local schools, Anderson, a retired U.S. Air Force nurse who is completing her first term on the board, said she “definitely thinks we need to fund our schools” but is not in favor of the county’s current “revenue sharing agreement,” which directs 57.23 percent of the county’s general fund revenue to the school division.

This year, the county’s 99 public schools received about $607 million of the county’s $1.2 billion general fund tax revenue, most of which comes from personal property and real estate taxes.

Anderson noted that the county

The grant helped by land for new eastern elementary schools and was used to add capacity to the 13th high school, which is scheduled to open in 2021 near Jiffy Lube Live.

But Anderson also said the revenue-sharing agreement “puts a millstone around our necks” because the county cannot raise taxes for a specific purpose without giving the school division it’s 57.23 percent.

County: No answers yet on Va. 28 fix

The options under consideration to ease traffic on Va. 28 include widening the existing road from four lanes to six or extending Godwin Drive to build a bypass.

VA. 28, from page 1

The bypass would then cross over Bull Run on a widened and rebuilt bridge and rejoin the existing Va. 28 at the other side of the Fairfax County line.

The other alternative would widen Va. 28 from four lanes to six along a 2.2 mile stretch between Liberia Avenue and the Fairfax County line.

Although officials had hoped the environmental study of the bypass would be finished before the election, it’s now not expected to be complete until spring 2020.

The timing is complicating the decision for voters and raising concerns among Manassas and Manassas Park residents whose homes and businesses could be affected by either plan.

Even state Del. Danica Roem, one of the most vocal proponents in recent years for improving Va. 28, concedes the timing poses a challenge for voters.

During an Oct. 9 community meeting about the road projects held at Yorkshire Elementary School, Roem said she too is concerned her constituents are “being asked to vote on a referendum when we don’t know what the money is going to be allocated for.”

“Why would we be having this vote in 2019 before we know what

we’re voting on? That is the outstanding issue,” Roem said.

Virginia transportation officials have been studying Va. 28 for the last three years, first to recommend minor fixes for the roadway and then to decide which major fix would work best to alleviate traffic on the stretch between Liberia Avenue and the Fairfax County line. A study finished in late 2017 narrowed the choices down to the bypass or the widening projects, which then led to the federal environmental assessment on the bypass.

Projects could affect 70 homes, 90 businesses

The bypass would largely affect homeowners in the Manassas and Manassas Park area between Godwin Drive and Yorkshire north of Va. 28, while the road widening would primarily impact businesses along the Va. 28 in Manassas.

Both projects are estimated to cost around $300 million, $95 million of which has already been pledged by the Northern Virginia Transport Authority. County staff said the bypass would require the purchase of up to 70 homes in the right of way for the

bypass, while the Va. 28 road-widening project could impact 90 businesses.

Prince William Supervisor Marty Nohe, R-Coles, who also serves as NVTA chairman, said if the referendum is approved, the board of supervisors will have the legal authority to use local tax dollars to build the road.

“At this point, Route 28 is now the most congested highway corridor in the Commonwealth of Virginia,” Nohe said. “We cannot not fix Route 28.”

Nohe said the county is focused on minimizing the impacts on landowners, but said the plans aren’t far enough along yet to know which specific homes and businesses would be affected by either project.

“There is very little doubt that they will give us permission to widen 28. It’s almost guaranteed,” Nohe said. “The question that they’re looking at is, is the bypass a viable option? It’s possible that they’ll say they’re both viable options,” Nohe said of the ongoing assessment.

Nohe said the board of supervisors will ultimately have the final say on whether either project moves forward.

More than 100 community members attended the Oct. 9 meeting at Yorkshire Elementary. Several residents and one business owner expressed concerns about the potential impacts of the projects.

Carolynn Griffey, who lives in Manassas in the vicinity of the proposed bypass, said she is concerned that homeowners in the way of the bypass wouldn’t be provided with a new home of equal value.

“Do you realize the majority of the people on Alleghany [Road] are retired people who have been there for many years? They’re not going to find another home at that price and you’re not going to give them the money that it’s worth,” Griffey said.

If the bypass plan is approved and homes need to be demolished to make way for the project, Prince William County will pay affected homeowners for their homes and relocation costs as well as the difference for a comparable home, according to County Transportation Director Ricardo Canizales.

“That is the way I’ve done business with the residents of Prince William County as I’ve gone through dealing with homes and having to take homes for roads,” Canizales said.

Another resident who said she lives in the way of the proposed bypass said the plan could take her home if the plan moves forward.

“Why would anybody vote for this bond referendum? Homeowners aren’t going to vote for it if it’s going to take their home,” she said. “Why would businesses vote for it if it’s going to take their business? Why is it on the ballot this year?”

Supervisor candidates agree on Metro, clash on 287(g) SUPERVISOR, from page 3 “It’s an awkward way to do a budget,” she added.

Boddye, who works in business development for an insurance company, said education is his top priority as a candidate and that the revenue sharing agreement “should be a floor and not a ceiling to what we give” to the school division.

Among the Potomac District candidates, Bailey called the revenue sharing agreement “a good tool to fully fund our schools” but said the schools’ needs should be considered all year long, not just at budget time.

Taggart, a retired Coast Guard officer, engineer and longtime elected officer on the Montclair Property Owners Association, said he believes the revenue sharing agreement is a good in that it gives the school board “an opportunity to plan” its budget from year to year.

But he also said he agrees with Anderson that it’s sometimes “problematic” for the supervisors when it comes to budgeting for the county’s needs.

Support for 287(g)

A question about the Prince William County jail’s agreement with Immigrations and Custom Enforce-

ment known as 287(g), a reference to where it appears in the Immigration and Nationality Act, split the candidates down party lines.

Anderson and Taggart, both Republicans, say they support the 287(g) agreement, while Bailey and Boddye, both Democrats, said local money spent on the 287(g) program should be spent on local needs.

Bailey called the program “very culturally divisive” and said the county has been “fiscally irresponsible” by using local money for the 287(g) program instead of education or transportation.

Boddye noted the 287(g) program has cost the county $2.5 million since 2011 and that the county jail has a staff shortage. “I’d say let’s take a step back and look at properly funding what we have now as opposed to enforcing federal law enforcement,” he said.

Taggart, however, said he’s “100 percent behind” the 287(g) agreement “because he believes we need to follow the law.”

Taggart also said his recent experience on a federal grand jury led him to understand the need for local immigration enforcement efforts.

Anderson, meanwhile, said she

She also noted the county has invested in body-worn cameras for police officers, which “makes the process even fairer because we can see the interactions and what’s going on.”

$396 million road, parks bond

Regarding the bond referenda on the Nov. 5 ballot that seek voters’ permission to borrow up to $396 million for transportation and parks projects, only Boddye said he is opposed to one of bond questions.

Although Boddye said he agrees with the need for the road projects that will be funded by the bonds – including improvements to Va. 28, which would receive $200 million alone – Boddye said he objects to process the supervisors undertook to choose the projects.

Doug Taggart, Republican nominee for the Potomac District seat on the Prince William Board of Supervisors, left, and Supervisor Ruth Anderson, R-Occoquan.

Also, Boddye noted that “taxes will need to go up to pay for the projects” and said the effort should have included a “more robust conversation” about transit projects.

Taggart said he backs the referenda but said is disappointed the mix of projects does not include a $50 million extension of Van Buren Drive from Cardinal Drive to Va. 234. The proposed road, although a moot issue for now, is controversial. Residents of Four Seasons and Cardinal Grove strongly oppose the road, while some residents of Montclair believe it could alleviate traffic on their main thoroughfare: Waterway Drive.

“I believe it’s a very important road that needs to be constructed,” Taggart said.

Bailey did not mention her position on Van Buren Road.

Malvo and his partner, John Allen Muhammad, terrorized Washington, Maryland and Virginia in a series of shootings that killed 10 and wounded three others beginning Oct. 2, 2002. The infamous “D.C. snipers” were apprehended 22 days later at a rest stop near Myersville, Maryland.

The Supreme Court will decide whether Malvo’s life sentences without parole in Virginia -- imposed for crimes he committed as a minor -- violate Eighth Amendment protections against cruel and unusual punishment.

In 2012, the Supreme Court ruled that individuals who committed crimes as minors could not be given mandatory life sentences in prison without parole unless their crimes indicated “permanent incorrigibility.” Their ruling would also be applied retroactively.

Malvo’s attorneys contended in their brief to the high court that regardless of whether a state’s sentencing structure is “mandatory” or “discretionary,” the 2012 ruling protects a minor from life sentences without parole.

A federal judge in Virginia ruled Malvo’s sentences should be vacated due to the 2012 ruling. Upon appeal

by Randall Mathena, the warden at Virginia’s Red Onion State Prison where Malvo is being held, the Fourth Circuit ruled Malvo was entitled to a new sentence. Mathena subsequently appealed to the Supreme Court.

Mathena’s attorneys argue that because Virginia doesn’t impose mandatory minimum sentences for capital murder, his sentences are exempt from the ruling’s review. That is the issue the Supreme Court will take up Wednesday.

Malvo’s accomplice, Muhammad, was 41 at the time of the attacks and sentenced to death by lethal injection in Virginia in 2004. He was executed in 2009.

Malvo was convicted on two counts of capital murder in Virginia. He then pleaded guilty to separate counts of capital murder, attempted capital murder, and two counts of using a firearm in the commission of a felony.

Attorneys for Malvo had used an insanity defense, claiming he had been “indoctrinated” by Muhammad and operated under his control. A jury in Chesapeake, Virginia, rejected that defense and convicted him.

Malvo was illegally brought into the United States from Antigua by Muhammad, an ex-soldier and expert rifleman, who then trained him in military tactics for almost a year.

Virginia imposed on Malvo a total of four life sentences in prison without parole in 2004.

Malvo has spent years appealing his sentences on multiple fronts.

Prince William County police are now looking for a second vehicle in connection with an accident on Graham Park Road Friday morning that killed a pedestrian from Woodbridge.

On Friday, Oct. 11, investigators from Prince William County Police Department’s crash investigation unit received additional information concerning the fatal crash that occurred on Graham Park Road in Triangle at 6:53 a.m. that morning.

The investigation revealed the pedestrian killed in the accident was struck a second time by a second vehicle that did not stop, according to Officer Renee Carr, spokeswoman for the Prince William County Police Department.

The vehicle is identified as a

dark-colored, newer model Toyota Camry that may have damage to the under carriage, Carr said in a news release.

The victim, Zorka Vesovic, 67, of Woodbridge, was transported to the hospital after she was hit while walking in the crosswalk on Graham Park Road. Vesovic was pronounced dead at the hospital. No other injuries were reported.

A 2010 Hyundai Sonata, driven by a 16-year-old girl, was also involved in the incident. The teen remained at the scene of the crash, police said.

Anyone with information is asked to contact the Prince William County Police Department tipline a 703-792-7000 or submit a web tip to: www.pwcgov.org/policetip.

19-year-old arrested for toting a gun to Patriot H.S. stadium A 19-year-old Bristow man was arrested Friday after police discovered he brought a firearm to an after-school event at Patriot High School, according to police.

On Friday, Oct. 11 at 8:16 p.m., officers working an event at Patriot High School, located at 10504 Kettle Run Road in Nokesville, were notified by school security about a man with a weapon in the stadium bathroom, according to Officer Renee Carr, spokeswoman for the Prince William County Police Department.

Officers located the man, who

said the weapon was in his vehicle in the parking lot. Officers and school security escorted the man to his vehicle and, once there, he stated the weapon was actually on his person, Carr said in a news release.

The officers took possession of the firearm. It was not fired nor brandished toward anyone. Following the investigation, Justin Michael Guerin, 19, of Bristow, was arrested and charged with possession of a weapon on school grounds and possession of marijuana. He was released on a $10,000 unsecured bond, police said.

Woodbridge teen held after striking officer, police car during pursuit A 19-year-old Woodbridge man is being held without bond after a two police officers suffered minor injuries last week when they were struck during the pursuit of a suspicious driver in Dumfries.

On Wednesday, Oct. 9, officers on proactive patrol in the 17400 block of U.S. 1 in Dumfries observed a suspicious vehicle. As they attempted to make contact with the driver, the vehicle pulled away, striking an officer who was outside his vehicle, according to Officer Renee Carr, spokeswoman for Prince William County police.

Officers circulating the area then spotted the vehicle near River Heritage Boulevard and U.S. 1.

When officers attempted a vehicle stop, the driver continued driving.

The vehicle then stopped at the intersection of Meldrim Way and

Chesapeake Drive where officers attempted to stop the driver a third time, giving him commands to exit the vehicle, Carr said in a news release.

The driver disregarded the commands and sped away, striking the door of the police vehicle, Carr said.

The driver was eventually taken into custody after he exited the vehicle near Porters Inn Drive. While searching the vehicle, police located suspected marijuana, Carr said.

Following an investigation, Christopher Ronaldo Sotomayor-Chavez, 19, of Woodbridge, was charged with one count of malicious wounding, two counts of hit and run, one count of possession with intent to sell marijuana, one count of eluding police and one count of obstruction of justice ahead of a Dec. 1 court date.

Suspect arrested in McDonald’s drive-thru robbery Police have arrested a Manassas man in connection with last week’s armed robbery of a McDonald’s drive-thru on Balls Ford Road.

On Wednesday, Oct. 9, detectives from Prince William County Police Department’s violent crimes unit identified the suspect sought in connection to the armed robbery that occurred Friday, Oct. 4, at the McDonald’s at 10730 Balls Ford Road in Manassas, according to

Officer Renee Carr, spokeswoman for the Prince William County Police Department.

Following the investigation, Charles Terraine Williams Barnes Jr., 29, of Manassas, was arrested without incident. He is being held without bond at the Prince William County Adult Detention Center on charges of robbery and use of a firearm in commission of a felony in advance of a Nov. 14 court date.

Guns, minimum wage at issue in delegate forum DELEGATE, from page 3 committee. Jordan didn’t respond to emails or phone calls from the Prince William Times about what specific gun measures he favors.

Anderson, while serving as Delegate from 2009 to 2017, voted for measures expanding gun rights in the commonwealth, including the repeal of the one-handgun-a-month rule and a measure allowing concealed handguns in establishments that serve alcohol.

Anderson said he is now “more receptive” to increasing background checks for firearms than in the past “because of the recent incidents.”

But Anderson, too, stopped short of saying exactly what gun laws he would support.

Minimum wage

Candidates were also split on whether they would vote in favor of raising Virginia’s minimum wage from $7.25 an hour to $15 an hour.

Virginia is one of 21 states that has not raised its minimum wage above the federal minimum.

Jordan said he is open to boosting Virginia’s minimum wage but said $15 an hour might not be “the right number” because it could lead to an increase in automation.

“We are already seeing it in plac-

es like McDonald’s and other restaurants where some of these jobs are going away,” Jordan said.

Jordan, who is African American, referenced a recent study by McKinsey & Co. called “The Future of Work in Black America,” which showed that African Americans are likely to be hit hardest during the next decade as automation continues to chip away at blue-collar jobs.

“We’re talking about minimum wage. We should be talking about how to prepare our workers for the future,” Jordan said.

Anderson said he opposes “an immediate imposition of a $15 minimum wage.”

Republicans killed a bill to raise Virginia’s minimum wage to $15 an hour in a party-line vote in the state Senate this year. The measure would have brought the minimum wage to $15 an hour incrementally between 2020 and 2024.

“It’s the threshold to automation and the loss of jobs for those who are most economically challenged,” Anderson said.

A House bill to increase the minimum wage to $10.10 an hour in 2020 was killed in a majority-Republican subcommittee in January. Guzman and Ayala both said they would support an increase in the minimum wage to $15 an hour.

“Virginia is one of the wealthiest states, and our workers deserve a living wage,” Guzman said.

Right-to-work law

Virginia is one of 27 right-towork states in the nation, meaning workers can’t be compelled to join a union or pay union dues as a condition of employment. Detractors of the state’s right-to-work laws say they favor big business at the expense of workers and restrict workers’ ability to unionize.

Ayala and Guzman said they are in favor of repealing the state’s right-towork law. Both candidates referenced a recent Oxfam report that ranked Virginia last in the nation in worker’s rights as one reason to repeal the law.

Oxfam, a British anti-poverty nonprofit, ranked Virginia 51st in the nation, including Washington D.C., for

workers’ rights based on its 2019 “Best and Worst States to Work in America” index, which evaluates each state on worker wages, worker protections and the ability to organize. Virginia ranked last in all three categories.

Virginia was ranked the best in the nation for business by CNBC in 2019.

Guzman said repealing Virginia’s right-to-work would mean workers would, “have a seat at the table so they can have conversations about training, safety and benefits.”

“Right now, they are never involved in that conversation,” Guzman said.

Ayala said Virginia’s No. 1 ranking for businesses and lowest ranking for workers is “not an equilibrium to our economy that looks like it works for everyone.”

“It looks like it works for some but not all,” Ayala said. “I don’t think policies should be on the backs of our workers’ so I do not support the right-to-work.”

Both Republican candidates say they are in favor of keeping Virginia’s right-to-work law on the books. Anderson said the state’s right-to-work law is “sacred in our commonwealth.”

“There’s a reason CNBC ranked us the number one state in the nation to do business,” Anderson said.

Jordan said the right-to-work law is needed to “actually protect workers’ rights.”

“Workers should not have to join a union or pay dues if they don’t want to,” Jordan said.

‘No pedestals, no weapons, no horses’ Women’s monument unveiled on Capitol Square

By Susan Shibut

Capital News Service

RICHMOND -- The nation’s first monument created to showcase remarkable women of Virginia now stands on Capitol Square.

Hundreds watched the unveiling Monday of “The Virginia Women’s Monument,” which features seven statues honoring women from different parts of the commonwealth.

Mary Margaret Whipple, vice chair of the Women’s Monument Commission, said the monument embodies the goals of the commission to honor real women in a way that is not mythic or symbolic. The Virginia General Assembly established the commission to determine and recommend an appropriate women’s monument for Capitol Square in 2010.

“These women rose to the occasion and made significant achievements,” Whipple said. “They were from all walks of life. From different times and places. They were famous and obscure. Real women. Even imperfect women. Who have shaped the history of this commonwealth.”

Clerk of the Senate Susan Clarke Schaar spoke about the decade-long process for the design and realization of the monument. She worked with professors and historians to design the structure.

“No pedestals, no weapons, no horses,” Schaar said. “They wanted it to be approachable. They wanted it to be warm and welcoming. And they wanted to convey a sense of consensus building. And they wanted young women and young men to know that they could do anything they wanted to do with their lives.”

Gov. Ralph Northam said the monument is long overdue.

“For far too long we have overlooked the transformative contributions of women and other underrepresented groups,” said Northam.

“Until recently that has been the case on Capitol Square as well.”

Capitol Square is also home to the Virginia Civil Rights Memorial, opened in 2008, and “Mantle,” a monument dedicated to Virginia’s Indian tribes in 2018.

This year, 2019, is the 100th anniversary of women’s suffrage in America. It also marks the 400th anniversary of the first slaves arriving in Virginia.

When the monument is completed it will feature a dozen bronze statues on a granite plaza and an etched glass Wall of Honor inscribed with 230 names of notable Virginian women and room for more. For a future honoree to qualify for the wall, she must be a native Virginian or have lived mostly in Virginia and must be deceased for at least 10 years.

The granite wall features a quote excerpted from a 1912 address that Mary

Girl Scouts of the Commonwealth of Virginia, of Virginia Skyline and of the Colonial Coast participated in the unveiling of the monuments. Chair of the Virginia Capitol Foundation and former first lady of Virginia Susan Allen introduced the councils and directed the unveiling.

Johnston, a 20th century Virginian author, made to an all-male Richmond conference of state governors: “It did not come up in a night, the Woman Movement, and it is in no danger of perishing from view. It is here to stay and grow … It is indestructible, it is moving on with an ever- increasing depth and velocity, and it is going to revolutionize the world.”

The seven completed statues are Anne Burras Laydon, a Jamestown colonist; Cockacoeske, Pamunkey chieftain; Mary Draper Ingles, a frontierswoman; Elizabeth Keckly, seamstress and confidante to Mary Todd Lincoln; Laura Copenhaver, an entrepreneur in the textile industry; Virginia Randolph, an educator; and Adèle Clark, suffragist and artist.

Five more statues will be added as they are funded and completed — Martha Dandridge Custis Washington, America’s inaugural first lady; Clementina Bird Rind, the first female printer in Virginia; Sally Louisa Tompkins, a hospital administrator; Maggie L. Walker, a civil rights leader and entrepreneur; and Sarah G. Boyd Jones, teacher and physician.

The statues, which each required a $200,000 investment, were sculpted by New York-based Ivan Schwartz, who also crafted the Capitol’s Thomas Jefferson statue.

Schwartz spoke about the lack of statues to, for, or about women. According to the Washington Post, of the estimated 5,193 public statues depicting historic figures on display on street corners and parks throughout the United States, 394 are of women.

“Women have been excised from the marble pedestal of history,” Schwartz said.

Schwartz has recently worked on other sculptures of notable women around the country. He mentioned projects highlighting Susan B. Anthony, Anne Frank and Harriet Tubman.

“I still make sculptures of Abraham Lincoln and George Washington,” Schwartz said. “I don’t turn my back on these good gentlemen. But their gentlemen’s club, which has

occupied our national living room, our nation’s public spaces, has at last started to admit women, African Americans and Native Americans.”

Girl Scouts unveiled the structures, pulling back a blue cloth as the name of each statue was announced

by Susan Allen, chair of the Virginia Capitol Foundation and former first lady of Virginia. The Girl Scouts represented councils from the Commonwealth of Virginia, Virginia Skyline and the Colonial Coast.

Mary Draper Ingles, the daughter of Scotch-Irish immigrants, moved from Philadelphia to what is now the site of Virginia Tech in Blacksburg, where her family and others established a small farming settlement. She and her two sons were taken captive by Shawnee warriors during the French and Indian War and marched to Ohio, where Ingles was given into servitude. She and another captive planned and made their escape into the wilderness, facing an oncoming winter with no supplies or equipment.

Ingles reunited with her husband 500 miles and 40 days later. Her statue depicts her difficult journey and facing hardship to return home.

OPINION WWW.PRINCEWILLIAMTIMES.COM

Prince William Times | October 16, 2019

Clearing up confusion about local funding for schools There’s been a lot of talk this election season about the “revenue-sharing agreement” -- the agreement the Prince William Board of Supervisors struck with the school board back in 1988 to divvy up the county’s general revenue fund.

Prince William is one of only a few counties in the state that generally sticks to a set split for the bulk of the local tax revenue that flows into the county’s coffers: 57.23% goes to the school division, while 42.77% stays with the county.

The agreement was meant to avoid annual squabbling about how much money should be spent on local schools.

But over the past several weeks, we’ve learned that many local candidates say they’re no longer fans of the deal, either because they think it gives too much or too little to the school division. For example, John Gray, the Republican nominee for chairman of the board of supervisors, says the agreement has “outlived its usefulness” because supervisors are “not looking at where the money is being spent.”

Meanwhile, Ann Wheeler, the Democratic nominee for board chairman, says the agreement is “short-changing the school system” as evidenced by the county’s low per-pupil spending as well as its large class sizes and lagging teacher pay, when compared to Fairfax and Arlington counties.

Given the discussion, we thought it important to clear up a few misconceptions about the revenue-sharing agreement.

Under the RSA, schools get most of the county’s revenue. Not true.

While the RSA directs 57.23% of the “general fund revenue” to the school division, it does not mean schools take the lion share of the entire county budget. The general revenue fund is only part of the county budget, about 40%. The county also collects money from agency revenue, other county taxes and levies, and state and federal funds. The school division also gets state and federal money. In fact, local funds make up only about 50% of the school division budget.

The entire general fund is included in the split. Again, not true. The supervisors decided in 2004 to exempt recordation tax revenue from the RSA in order to dedicate that money to transportation improvements. The decision means that about $6 to $8 million in annual revenue to the county is not shared with the school division.

The RSA can’t be tweaked.

Again, not true. The supervisors have adjusted the RSA when they see a need. The last time this happened was in 2013, when the schools’ portion was changed from 56.75% to 57.23% of the general fund. The change happened because the supervisors cut the projected real estate tax rate but wanted to shield the school division from the full brunt of the cut.

Guest Opinion

Keeping track of supervisors’ record on new developments “Since Supervisors listen only to developers, why did we even bother to come here tonight and speak-out against this project?” We often hear some variation of this from citizens after the Prince William Board of Supervisors approves yet another new home development that will worsen school overcrowding and traffic congestion.

To test the validity of that lament, we reviewed county records to determine how each supervisor voted on each new home development request during the board’s current term. Our findings won’t surprise those who have participated in one of those hearings.

Other voters may be shocked.

The current board has approved all but one of the 15 new home development requests for which it held a public hearing. And the one denied request – for a development called Pennington Lane – is now back for another round of public hearings, beginning with the planning commission on Oct. 16.

This means the board still has time to achieve a perfect record of new home development approvals before its term expires. That’s good news for the development community, related special interest groups and the political campaign coffers of board members running for reelection this year. But it’s bad news for citizens who must pay the price for the board’s decisions.

Individually, board Chairman Corey Stewart, R-At Large, and Supervisor Marty Nohe, R-Coles, both voted to approve all 14 of the new home development requests (except one for which Stewart was absent).

Supervisor Maureen Caddigan, R-Potomac, voted to approve all but one. Supervisor Ruth Anderson, R-Occoquan, voted to approve all but two. Supervisors Jeanine Lawson, R-Brentsville, and Frank

Doug Widener

Principi, D-Woodbridge, each voted to approve all but three.

And Supervisor Pete Candland, R-Gainesville, voted to approve half of the development requests.

We excluded Supervisor John Jenkins, who passed away in February, and Supervisor Victor Angry, D-Neabsco, who was elected to replace him in April.

That voting pattern changed, however, as supervisors became aware that activists were closely watching and voters were becoming increasingly knowledgeable about the impact of new home development on school overcrowding and traffic congestion.

As a result, every new home development request since the beginning of 2018 has received at least one “no” vote, with three Supervisors voting “no” on three separate development requests. And Candland, despite his earlier voting record, has voted to approve only one new home development request since 2017.

Another indication of supervisors’ growing awareness that activists and voters are watching is the number of hearings for new development requests that have recently been deferred. It will be interesting to see how those hearings – almost certain to be held after the election – will be decided by “lame duck” supervisors who may only have their legacies or future political prospects to consider.

A TEAM OF CONTENTED BOBCATS Ninth straight win puts Battlefield volleyball alone in first at 12-2

By Jeff Malmgren Times Staff Writer

Abby Mills’ ponytail serves as an emotional thermometer while coaching some of Battlefield’s volleyball matches.

The hair tie creeps higher on her head as the stakes rise in a game.

So with the Bobcats’ 24-set winning streak on the line Thursday, Mills kept moving that ponytail up as she coached against Patriot during at home in Haymarket.

“It was like right on the top of my head,” Mills said with a laugh. “I was very nervous.”

The Pioneers led by two points late in that set, but the Bobcats finished on an 8-3 run to win the match 25-15, 25-19, 25-22 for their ninth consecutive victory with eight of those wins via three-set sweeps. So they have a 12-2 record while Patriot stands at 11-8.

“I’ve never seen people who work harder and care more,” Mills said of the Bobcats. “So it’s awesome that all of their hard work actually gets reflected into the good record.

“The girls are just absolutely phenomenal,” the second-year coach said. “They make [volleyball] the best part of my day every single day.”

By beating Patriot, Battlefield also took sole possession of first place in the Cedar Run District standings by improving to 7-1 with two matches remaining. The Pioneers’ loss dropped them into a tie for second at 6-2 with John Champe after they won the 2018 and 2017 district regular season championships.

The Bobcats haven’t lost a match since Sept. 17 against Champe, 3-2, and they haven’t lost a set since beating James Madison on Sept. 23, 3-2, making for that 24-set streak.

“I hope we keep putting up the numbers,” libero Ella Yates said.

“It’s fun. It’s showing how much we’ve been improving.”

The Bobcats hope to soon carry that attitude into the Class 6 Region

Looking unbeatable lately, Battlefield (12-2) has vaulted to the top of the Cedar Run standings. Pictured are Hanna Nelson (No. 13), Hillarie Adams (No. 6), redhead Kat Jenks and Juliana Quintero (No. 4).

D tournament. They lost in the first round last season to Washington-Lee after winning the Cedar Run district tournament title. Battlefield’s entire starting lineup returned from that 2018 team, which lost only one senior.

In fact, the talented Bobcats will lose only one senior again at the end of this season in setter Kat Jenks.

“I think we have a lot of potential,” Yates said. “We’re really young. We have the rest of this year and all of next year to get to states; win states.”

Yates led the Bobcats to victory in the second set Thursday with an eightpoint service run that turned a 13-13 tie into a 21-13 lead. That run included an incredible four consecutive aces.

“She was in the zone and just went off,” outside hitter Emma Morris said.

“I saw a spot that I wanted to go

to,” Yates said, “and I just kept building up my serving momentum.”

She helped Battlefield finish with 12 aces as outside hitter Julianna Quintero and middle hitter Merom Arthur produced three each.

Yates’ eight-point run began with a stuff block from Arthur and a Patriot hitting error. Then Yates’ third serve clipped the top of the net and gently rolled over into the Pioneers’ court for a point.

Her next three aces were less serendipitous as she placed them well between Battlefield players, followed by a Quintero kill. So Yates finished the night with 13 points on 16-for-17 serving.

“She’s a very impressive server,” Patriot coach Katie Swanson said. “I love being a part of watching great volleyball and I love watching great players.”

Yates also had a nice service run late in the third set that turned a 1918 deficit into a 22-19 lead. The final point of that streak featured the highlight of the night as defensive specialist Carsen Carroll made consecutive diving digs to keep a rally alive.

On her second lunge, the ball popped off of Carroll’s hand to Jenks, who made an unorthodox redirect of the ball to Quintero for a kill.

“It just warms my heart having the girls give every single effort for every single point they can,” Mills said. “It shows their heart and passion for the game that they’re willing to throw their bodies on the floor.”

In addition to Carroll’s defense, Battlefield got three blocks by Arthur, who also had five kills. Quintero and Morris, meanwhile, led the See BOBCATS, page 17

LEGAL NOTICES NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC OF PETITION OF VIRGINIA ELECTRIC AND POWER COMPANY FOR APPROVAL OF A PLAN FOR ELECTRIC DISTRIBUTION GRID TRANSFORMATION PROJECTS PURSUANT TO § 56-585.1 A 6 OF THE CODE OF VIRGINIA, AND FOR APPROVAL OF AN ADDITION TO THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS APPLICABLE TO ELECTRIC SERVICE

CASE NO. PUR-2019-00154

On September 30, 2019, Virginia Electric and Power Company (“Dominion” or “Company”) filed a petition with the State Corporation Commission (“Commission”) for approval of a plan for electric distribution grid transformation projects (“Petition”) pursuant to § 56-585.1 A 6 (“Subsection A 6”) of the Code of Virginia. Specifically, the Company is requesting approval of additional investments over the first three years of its ten-year grid transformation plan (“GT Plan”). The Company refers to these additional proposed investments as “Phase IB” to the GT Plan. The estimated total proposed cost associated with Phase IB is $510.5 million in capital investment and $83.0 million in operations and maintenance expense. Pursuant to Subsection A 6, the Commission is required to issue its final order on the Petition within six months of the filing date.

Patriot field hockey is 13-1 after Lenahan’s shootout goal in 3rd OT

By Jeff Malmgren Times Staff Writer

Sophomore Claudia Lenahan scored in a triple-overtime sudden death shootout to give the Patriot a 2-1 field hockey victory over host Battlefield last Thursday.

Patriot goalie Julia Shearer made a 1-on-1 save in triple overtime to set up Lenahan’s goal, which gave the Pioneers an 8-0 record in the Cedar Run District with a 13-1 mark overall, including a seven-game winning streak.

In the second-overtime shootout, Battlefield and Patriot each went 1-for-5 with Julia Henry scoring on the Pioneers’ fifth 1-on-1 opportunity to force triple overtime after four saves by Shearer. The game needed a shootout after both teams went scoreless after a 15 minutes 7-on-7 overtime session left the score at 1-1.

In regulation, Natalie Zeger scored early in the second half after the Bobcats took a 1-0 lead in the first half.

Deep, talented Battlefield girls seek postseason glory BOBCATS, from page 15 Bobcats with 11 kills apiece, while Hillarie Adams, their leading hitter this season, finished with three.

Two of Battlefield’s hitters are NCAA Division I recruits with Quintero committed to Pepperdine’s beach volleyball team and Morris committed to Stanford’s beach team (pending academic requirements).

They helped Jenks finish Thursday with 24 assists.

“Our hitters are amazing,” said Yates, who is committed to Oregon’s beach team. “It’s awesome because I know I can put a pass up and Kat will give us a super-nice set and we can always rely on our hitters to get bangers.”

The Company states that Phase IB will focus on six components of the overall GT Plan, including: (i) advanced metering infrastructure (“AMI”); (ii) the customer information platform (“CIP”); (iii) grid improvement projects, consisting of both grid technologies and grid hardening projects; (iv) telecommunications infrastructure; (v) cyber security; and (vi) the Smart Charging Infrastructure Pilot Program. The Company states that it is presenting the results of a cost-benefit analysis conducted by a third-party consultant that show the proposed investments are beneficial to customers.

As part of the GT Plan, Dominion proposes to fully deploy AMI across its service territory over a six-year period beginning in 2019. As part of the deployment of AMI, the Company states it will seek to install a smart meter at each customer’s premises. For individual customers that may prefer not to have smart meter, the Company states that it plans to accommodate those customers where practical. As part of the Petition, the Company proposes a revenue-neutral opt-out policy for residential customers, including a one-time fee of $84.53 and on-going monthly fees of $29.20, intended to recover the costs of a customer opting out of smart meter installation. The Company also seeks approval of an addition to its terms and conditions of electric service to charge the proposed opt-out fees.

The Company proposes to deploy a new CIP that includes replacement of the customer information system (“CIS”), which is the primary system supporting processes such as metering, billing, credit, service orders and revenue reporting.

The Company states the existing CIS is outdated and, among other things, is unable to effectively and efficiently offer an expanded set of rate structures and customer-centric programs like time-varying rates. The Company states that it anticipates proposing a new experimental, voluntary time-varying rate later this fall upon conclusion of a stakeholder process initiated pursuant to legislation passed by the 2019 General Assembly.

The Company states that the proposed grid technologies and grid hardening projects will improve service reliability and support the integration of distributed energy resources. Among other things, the Company asserts these projects will (i) improve situational awareness and automatically restore large segments of customers; (ii) rebuild poorly performing grid segments to stronger standards and upgrade specific components to eliminate outages; and (iii) improve the availability of the grid to accept and transport customer-generated energy.

The Company proposes certain telecommunications-related projects, referred to as the Tier 3 Field Area Network. The Company states that these projects will facilitate connectivity to equipment on the distribution system, including devices outside of the substation fence. According to the Petition, these projects will include investing in field device hardware that connects intelligent grid devices to, among other things, the Company’s communication network. Phase IB also includes additional proposed cyber-security investments that the Company asserts are necessary to protect proposed Phase IB GT Plan projects.

According to Dominion, the proposed Smart Charging Infrastructure Pilot Program is aimed at providing the Company with the data and tools necessary to understand and manage electric vehicle (“EV”) charging load in furtherance of additional investments, pilots, programs, or rate designs that will support EV adoption while minimizing the impact of EV charging on the distribution grid. The Pilot Program will consist of (i) rebates for the infrastructure and upgrades, if necessary, at EV charging sites; and (ii) rebates for the smart charging equipment that enables managed charging. The Company also seeks a waiver of the Commission’s Rules Governing Utility Promotional Allowances if deemed necessary by the Commission, in order to provide the proposed rebates associated with the Smart Charging Infrastructure Pilot Program.

The Commission entered an Order for Notice and Hearing in this case that, among other things, scheduled a public hearing at 1 p.m. on January 27, 2020, in the Commission’s second floor courtroom located in the Tyler Building, 1300 East Main Street, Richmond, Virginia 23219, to receive the testimony of public witnesses.

A public hearing will convene on January 28, 2020, at 9:30 a.m., in the same location, to receive the testimony and evidence offered by the Company, respondents, and the Commission Staff on the Company’s Petition.

The Company’s Petition and the Commission’s Order for Notice and Hearing are available for public inspection during regular business hours at each of the Company’s business offices in the Commonwealth of Virginia. Copies also may be obtained by submitting a written request to counsel for the Company, Sarah R. Bennett, Esquire, McGuireWoods LLP, Gateway Plaza, 800 East Canal Street, Richmond, Virginia 23219. If acceptable to the requesting party, the Company may provide the documents by electronic means.

Manassas Ballet Theatre presents ‘Jazz in Motion’ this weekend Staff Reports Manassas Ballet Theatre, the largest professional ballet company in Northern Virginia, will open its 2019-20 season Friday with the sultry “Jazz In Motion,” with choreography by Debora Greer and Vadim Slatvitsky set to both classic jazz tunes and original music.

The show features The Kim Reynolds Band with vocalist Mark Luna and will be performed Friday through Sunday at the Hylton Performing Arts Center.

“Dancing to live music has always been of the utmost importance to me. ‘Jazz In Motion’ will be unique in that it will have the musicians right on the stage with the dancers,” Manassas Ballet Theatre artistic director Amy Wolfe said in a press release.

Greer said the show is a fusion of all genres of dance including contemporary, bachata and salsa. “Come Rain or Shine” is one of her favorite pieces, not only for the rhythm, but also because the lyrics evoke emotions from her own romance with her husband, she said in a press release.

“Take the A Train” is another of Greer’s favorite. It involves a large female ensemble, and Greer said she loves the energy of all the artists in the room working together to bring the dance to life.

Visions of long amorous walks upon beautiful boardwalks in locations such as San Sebastian or Valencia inspired Slatvitsky’s choreography for the piece “Beyond the Sea.” Dancers Victoria Bartlett and Shady Mohamed perform a sensual pas de deux. They dance along, falling in love, enjoying wine, and hoping to come away from the night with a promise for eternal love, the release said. “’Jazz In Motion’ is a truly spectacular experience that blends original contemporary choreography with unique jazz works and vocal stylings.

Lose yourself in time and feel as if you are on a journey to places unknown to dance the night away,” the release said.

For more information about the performance and show times visit www.manassasballet.org or reach us at 703-257-1811 or info@manassasballet.org.

Tickets start at $30 and are available at https://hylton. calendar.gmu.edu/manassas-ballet-theatre-jazz-inmotion or the Hylton box office at 703-993-7759.

Widened Va. 28 nearly complete in Bristow

By Daniel Berti

Times Staff Writer

Prince William County officials celebrated the near completion of 2.2 miles of road improvements along Va. 28 from Fitzwater Drive to Vint Hill Road in the Brentsville District at a ribbon cutting on Wednesday, Oct. 9.

The project, which broke ground over two years ago, widened the existing roadway from an undivided two lanes to a divided four lanes from Fitzwater Drive to Vint Hill Road and added a new multi-use trail and a sidewalk on both sides of the roadway. Both new lanes will be open by the end of the month.

Commuters and the community will also benefit from new bridges over Kettle Run, storm drainage improvements and traffic signal reconstruction.

Officials say the improvements will alleviate traffic along the corridor and allow better connectivity from the Bristow and Nokesville area in Prince William County to the City of Manassas, the City of Manassas Park, and ultimately to Fairfax and Loudoun counties, and will improve safety for motorists, pedestrians and cyclists.

The project is phase II of a multiphase plan to improve Va. 28. In addition to alleviating traffic congestion, officials say the overall project is aiming to facilitate and create mul-

The total cost of the phase II project was $36.5 million, funded in large part from $33.5 million from the Northern Virginia Transportation Authority, a regional body responsible for long range transportation planning in Northern Virginia.

The NVTA directs tax dollars raised for transportation improvements through slightly higher sales and other taxes levied in Prince William, Fairfax, Loudoun and Arlington counties.

The Route 28 improvements from Fitzwater Drive to Vint Hill Road are among the first road projects in Prince William to be funded by the NVTA and are projected to save a total of 5 million “person-hours” of delay by 2040, according to NVTA analysis.

An advocate for aging well

Warrenton’s Martial Arts Center focused on fighting for your health

By Coy Ferrell

Contributing Writer

Grandmaster Kun Hwa Lee is a ninth-degree blackbelt, the highest-possible rank in taekwondo. He’s trained everyone from kids in Fauquier County to military forces around the world in martial arts and self-defense.

These days, he’s just as focused on fighting what he sees as the greatest enemy: deteriorating health that can come with age.

“People think about martial arts and they think about punch and kick, right?

The real enemy is our aging and sickness,” said Lee. In short, he believes the focused, deliberate movements of martial arts can be an effective tool to prolong health and wellness for older people.

“Our Eastern philosophy is that all living things must be moving,” said Lee, who founded Warrenton’s World Martial Arts Center in 2001. He himself is a “70-plus”-year-old, as he puts it, and he’s determined that he and his clients keep moving as much as possible.

He reflects on the injuries he sustained over his years of training, and wonders what would happen if he stopped his vigorous routine. “If I stop, maybe -- number one is what, arthritis? [High] cholesterol? Pow, done!”

He punches the air for emphasis, as if his mortality was an assailant who had bettered him on the mat. “So [I have] no choice. I have to keep going.”

Strong seniors

A group of three to five seniors meets regularly at the center to practice tae kwon do under Lee’s watchful eye. He takes meticulous notes on each of his older clients, complete with outlines of family medical history and charts of listing the number of repetitions performed of each exercise. The emphasis for the senior class is conditioning and building confidence, not competition.

ago. He appreciates the low-pressure environment and looks forward to each session. Specifically, he is here because his doctor diagnosed him with the early stages of Parkinson’s disease, a progressive disorder of the nervous system.

When he first started training, he walked stiffly and bent over. Now he can demonstrate an entire sequence of perhaps 20 movements. “The important thing, I think, is that I can remember the steps.

Your body gets used to it.” He is still cautious and deliberate with his movements, but ultimately, “I feel a lot better,” he says.

“It’s a very worthwhile thing.”

Birds of a feather Birdwatching is focused relaxation on the wing phones and digital cameras, notepads and pencils have largely been set aside.

Field guides are as near as a few good apps; flipping through a hard copy guide has in many cases been replaced with a click and swipe.

But some seniors may not be comfortable with the technology, so tried and true birding guides are still employed. It’s not an either/or proposition. Comfort levels and enjoyment dictate how the activity is embraced.

Bird Conservancy

By John Hagarty

Contributing Writer

As seniors move into their golden years, advice they’re likely to hear is, “Stay involved.” Good counsel, since movement and social interaction are the twin fountains of youth. But high-energy activities may begin to lose their appeal when the color gray starts to appear.

Most of us want to stay active as we age but jogging, weights and Jazzercise may be a bit less enjoyable after passing the half-century mark. What to do?

Consider a casual walk through field or forest or even a loop around the backyard dedicated to gazing skyward.

Think birdwatching.

Birdwatching, more commonly referred to as birding, is one of the fastest-growing hobbies in North America. Some 50 million Americans, young, middle aged and seniors draw joy from observing the sights and sounds of feathered beauties as they dart, swoop and perch on trees and landscaping.

It’s an endeavor particularly well suited to sages. It can be a solo activity or enhanced through group bird walks led by knowledgeable birders eager to share their experience with neophytes.

Moreover, with window birdfeeders and a comfortable chair or recliner positioned to take advantage of the activity, it can enhance the lives of the homebound. The joys of gazing at fluttering birds are obvious but it also has a calming, almost meditative, effect that can help individuals connect with nature in richer, more meaningful ways.

Today, with the advent of smart-

The nonprofit American Bird Conservancy is in The Plains and is dedicated to saving birds and their habitat across the western hemisphere. Its work seeks to eliminate extinctions, protect habitat and expand the capacity for birds to grow and thrive.

In other words, the organization is a birder’s best friend. Daniel Lebbin is vice president of threatened species at ABC and an avid birder.

Lebbin, 42, holds a degree in biology and environmental science and policy from Duke University and a doctorate in ecology and evolutionary biology from Cornell University.

He has worked for the World Wildlife Fund, The Nature Conservancy and the National Zoo, and participated in field research projects in Jamaica, Costa Rica, Ecuador and Venezuela.

A lifelong birder, Lebbin enjoys bird illustration and photography. He co-authored “The American Bird Conservancy Guide to Bird Conservation.”

“Some of my earliest memories are watching birds at my grandparents’ feeder. I became interested in birds at the age of 12. At 16 I got my driver’s license and was more independent and things really took off,” said Lebbin.

He says, “eBird is the most useful tool for people getting into birdwatching.” The goal of the website is to gather information in the form of checklists of birds, archive it, and freely share it to advance conservation and education.

It has numerous tools to make birding more rewarding. From being able

to manage lists, photos and audio recordings, to seeing real-time maps of species distribution. eBird is the world’s largest biodiversity-related citizen science project, with more than 100 million bird sightings contributed each year by members around the world.

Getting started

For as richly rewarding a pastime as birdwatching can be, the cost of entry is relatively low. A pair of good binoculars is the first item to consider.

Prices can range from $100 to $300.

Two popular models are the Nikon Monarch and Leupold Yosemite. Its recommended 8-power magnification be used since it provides a good field of vision without the shaky effect of larger powered glasses.

If you are serious about quality, consider a visit to One Good Tern, a birding supply store in Alexandria.

“They have some of the best salespeople in the industry. If you want handson help, they are very good,” says Lebbin.

Next, consider downloading the app eBird or purchasing a field guide. Two solid publications are National Geographic’s “Field Guide to the Birds of North America” and Peterson’s “Birds of Eastern North America”.

If you don’t already have one or more

already installed, place some birdfeeders on your windowsill or in your backyard.

Leaning into the hobby is a lot easier if you can glance out your window and start identifying nearby warblers.

Your smartphone will serve as your camera and also permit you to post photos of your “scores” on eBird if you are so inclined. With some 400 different species of birds in the Old Dominion, you’ll have no trouble staying entertained.

Finally, the joy of birding is multiplied by engaging with other birders. There are several organizations to consider joining by searching your keyboard. One particularly useful site is the Northern Virginia Bird Club. It offers field trips, a newsletter and an extensive list of other birding organizations for your enlightenment. Visit nvabc.org.

“Birding can be as little or as much as you want it to be. You can make it a second career, or in my case, a first career,” said Lebbin. “The more people who understand and care about nature, the more they help us achieve our goals at American Bird Conservancy.”

Jane H Wild Jane H Wild was born in St. Paul, Minnesota October 31, 1926. She died September 13, 2019.

Jane lived a rich, full life. She married Robert Wild October 12, 1947. Together they traveled the world while raising three children; or more aptly Jane managed to take three children to many remote parts of the earth by herself to meet Bob at his latest Naval assignment. Jane and Bob were good parents who lovingly and successfully raised a daughter Jeanne Ravich, Minneapolis, a son Tim Wild, Seattle, and youngest daughter Beth McDonald, Stuarts Draft.

Bob died November 5, 2010. Losing her husband of 63 years left a huge hole in her life.

Though she was lonely after Bob’s death, Jane still loved social occasions - especially a glass of wine in the evening with friends.

In addition to her three children Jane is survived by her brother Tom Hall, Indianapolis, six grandchildren, and five great grandchildren.

Jane loved her house and friends in Warrenton. With the support and help of her youngest daughter Beth, Jane managed to live on her own terms right up to weeks before her death. Thank you Beth.

All Jane’s children and grandchildren were lucky enough to say goodby to her, thank her and let her know they loved her.

A funeral mass will be held at 2 p.m. November 2, at St. John the Evangelist Catholic church. Following the mass Jane’s daughter Jeanne is hosting a celebration of Jane’s life - an event Jane would not want to miss.

Jane will be interred with her husband Bob in Arlington National Cemetery at a later date.
