Supervisors press school board on in-person learning

By Jill Palermo

Times Staff Writer

Prince William County schools Superintendent Steven Walts has promised he’ll present a plan to the school board this week outlining when middle and high school students might return to school under the proposed “50% hybrid plan.” But he cautioned it would depend on local COVID-19 numbers and is subject to change.

“We will have a plan, but it will be tentative at best,” Walts said.

The comments came during the first joint meeting of the Prince William Board of Supervisors and school board since the pandemic hit in March.

During the gathering, held Tuesday, Oct. 13, at the

More than 88,000 people in Prince William County have cast early ballots in this year’s general election bringing the county’s voter turnout up to 30% with two weeks left until Election Day, according to county election officials.

The number of early voters, both from people voting in-person at early voting locations and those who have returned absentee ballots, has already surpassed the number of early and absentee votes cast in 2016.

Matt Wilson, a spokesman for the Prince William County Office of Elections, said the huge numbers of early votes is both “unprecedented” and “expected” given the new voting laws put in place this year by the Virginia General Assembly making it easier to vote.

“It’s going to be close to 100,000 early votes this year,” Wilson said.

Three polling places opened in Prince William County on Sept. 18 and another five satellite voting offices opened on Monday, Oct. 19. Wilson said the county elections office is expecting up to

4,000 early votes every day until the election.

“The numbers are only going to get bigger and bigger,” Wilson said.

As of Oct. 19, 52,000 people have voted early in-person. Another 36,000 have returned absentee ballots at voting site drop boxes, Wilson said.

The Prince William Board of County Supervisors voted earlier this year to fund the five additional satellite voting locations throughout the county to accommodate early voters. At-large board Chair Ann Wheeler said the county’s office of elections has been “knocking it out of the park.”

“Kudos to our office of elections for putting in place excellent health safety protocols. They have also been effectively handling what has been a huge increase from previous years and what will possibly be a record-breaking year for turnout,” Wheeler said.

Wheeler added that, with new laws passed by the Virginia General Assembly this year, “voting in Virginia has never been easier.”

COVID-19 relief money proves hard to spend

By Daniel Berti

Times Staff Writer

As of Sept. 30, Prince William County had spent just $36 million of the $82 million it received in federal relief funds to help local government, schools, businesses and residents weather the impact of the coronavirus pandemic -- and is running out time to dole out rest.

The county received two $41 million installments of federal CARES Act relief, one in March and the other in September. The supervisors were tasked with allocating the funds to help those impacted by the pandemic.

Programs initiated by the board included $8 million for emergency housing assistance to pay up to six months of rent, mortgage or utility payments for qualifying residents; $5 million in micro-grants for area small businesses and $5 million for coronavirus testing. The board also allocated $25 million to Prince William County Schools to improve distance learning for teachers, students and staff.

SUPERVISORS, from page 1 school division’s Edward L. Kelly Leadership Center, the supervisors unanimously approved directing another $15.9 million in federal CARES Act funds to the school division to assist with purchase of computers and other equipment needed to educate students during the pandemic.

But the supervisors also peppered school board members about their reopening plans and particularly about Walts’ recent decision to keep the majority of Prince William students learning virtually until at least 2021.

Walts announced the latest iteration of the school division’s reopening plans at the Oct. 7 school board meeting. Citing the local health district’s still high COVID-19 numbers and guidelines for schools issued in late September by both the Virginia Department of Health and the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Walts said only pre-kindergarten through first grade students – as well as some high school students taking career and technical education courses – would return to schools under the hybrid plan before the end of the year.

That’s in addition to the approximately 1,200 special education students and English language learners who have been attending school four days a week since the new year began Sept. 8.

Republican Supervisors Jeanine Lawson and Pete Candland pressed the school board most strongly about the delay.

Candland asked how the total $50 million the school division has already received in CARES Act funding from the state and Prince William County is helping to return students to school buildings for in-person learning.

Lawson, R-Brentsville, said she felt the school board “pulled the rug out from under many, many parents [and] families who were planning … including my family” when they agreed last week to go delay the hybrid plan.

Lawson said the school division’s many texts and emails to families urging them to complete the school division’s survey about whether their students would opt to return to school two days a week raised expectations that were ultimately dashed by Walts’ decision to delay the plan.

“I found it really frustrating for many, many families,” Lawson said. “…I felt a need to publicly represent a lot of people who feel like the rug was pulled out from under us last week.”

Lawson went on to share that her 80-year-old mother “almost died from COVID over the weekend.”

“So trust me, I understand the gravity of this virus. I felt it over the weekend with my 80-yearold mom,” Lawson added. “But we have many families throughout this county struggling, and this is crippling them, and we have got to give them some kind of timeline so they can see the

light at the end of the tunnel. So that’s what we’re here to talk about tonight. What’s your plan?”

School Board members swiftly pushed back on the request, noting that they too want to return students to classrooms but must do so safely.

“We don’t have control of the virus,” said Occoquan District School Board Representative Lillie Jessie said, who said she agreed with Walts’ move to delay the 50% hybrid plan based on local COVID-19 metrics as well as the realities involved in returning students to the county’s large middle and high schools.

Jessie noted that school board members received emails from 400 teachers expressing concerns about their safety and that of medically fragile family members.

Jessie also noted that it is not within the normal nature of schoolchildren – no matter what their age – to comply with social distancing.

“You’re dealing with a huge school system, and kindergarteners love to hug people and so do high schoolers,” Jessie said. “We have go to keep our kids safe.”

School Board Vice Chair Loree Williams (Woodbridge) said the narrative that the school board “promised” all students would return on Nov. 10 was not true, and that the school board gave Walts the authority to adjust based on health conditions and his best judgment.

School Board Chairman Dr. Babur Lateef (at large) said he understood that the delay of the 50% hybrid plan “let people down.”

“That has absolutely been made clear by the hundreds of emails we’ve received, and we are working to get people back into the buildings,” Lateef said.

Yet Lateef also noted that the CARES Act funding – which has been used to purchase nearly 50,000 laptop computers and to boost the school division’s internet network – are critical to the success of the hybrid plan in that students would

still be learning from home three days a week.

“The 50-50 plan will only work if we get everyone a computer,” Lateef said.

Walts noted that as the parent of a high school senior and he empathizes with parents’ concerns and frustrations. But he reiterated that his “first and foremost” consideration is the advice of health experts, both locally and with the VDH and the CDC. The decision to phase in pre-K through third grade students first, he said, has to do with the fact that younger students “are less susceptible to carrying the virus.”

“The bottom line is that on Sept. 28, that guidance was issued by the Virginia Department of Health. The plan I presented was based on that guidance,” Walts said.

Walts further reminded the members of both boards that the county schools have already had more than 90 cases of COVID-19 reported among students and staff as well as “two schools in full or partial quarantine” despite the limited number of students attending in person.

“I’m quite certain if we had all of these people in the buildings, the number would far exceed 90,” Walts said.

Fairfax groups object to Va. 28 bypass Concerns raised about Bull Run park

By Daniel Berti

Times Staff Writer

The Prince William Board of County Supervisors’ decision to move forward with the Va. 28 bypass has sparked a backlash from residents in neighboring Fairfax County who say their supervisors have not allowed residents to voice concerns about the road’s impact to Bull Run Regional Park.

The $300 million bypass would extend Godwin Drive to create a new four-lane road along Flat Branch Creek in Manassas that would cross Bull Run Creek and cut across Fairfax County’s Bull Run Regional Park to connect with the existing Va. 28 near Compton Road in Fairfax’s Sully District.

The bypass route was endorsed by the Prince William supervisors and the Manassas and Manassas Park city councils in September. The Northern Virginia Transportation Authority reaffirmed its $89 million pledge to the project earlier this month by approving an agreement allowing Prince William County to oversee the project.

But Fairfax residents said they have not been given an opportunity to provide public input on the segment of the road that crosses into Fairfax because no public hearing was scheduled in Fairfax County.

Two Fairfax citizen associations – the Sully District Council of Citizens Associations and the Western Fairfax County Citizen Association – approved a resolution in September requesting that the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors “block any further project development activities” of the Fairfax County portion of the bypass until public hearings are held.

Jay Johnston, president of the board of trustees for Virginia Run Homeowners Association, one of 14 HOAs represented by the Sully District Council of Citizens Associations, said the Fairfax supervisors stifled citizen input by forgoing a public hearing.

“They’re not listening to the citizens in voicing the concerns we have about the environment, about tearing up the regional park,” Johnston said.

CARES, from page 1 But the county has so far struggled to actually spend the money allocated to some of the programs and must spend the rest of it by Dec. 30 or return any leftover cash to the state.

The emergency housing assistance program has so far only spent $1.5 million of the $8 million it was provided. The program has received over 2,100 applications for assistance but awarded funds to just 148 applicants as of Oct. 6, according to the county’s Housing and Community Development Director Billy Lake.

Lake told county supervisors at a recent work session that that many requests for housing help were not fulfilled because applicants made technical errors or did not meet the county’s qualifications for aid.

“We have 473 people that made an application, but they never hit the submit button to apply,” Lake said.

Lake said 792 people were denied assistance because they couldn’t prove they suffered a reduction of income as a result of the pandemic or had not provided verification that they had lost a job or wages. Lake said that the program had also had to deal with several cases of possible fraud.

Deputy County Executive Elijah Johnson said the housing office is working the county’s communica-

Jim Hart, former at-large chairman of the Fairfax County Planning Commission and a Sully District resident, said the Fairfax supervisors should have given residents an opportunity to weigh in on the bypass.

“I just don’t understand how the Prince William board of supervisors picks the route through Fairfax County,” Hart said. “The citizens of Fairfax have been entirely subtracted from the equation.”

Hart said that during his 15 years as a Fairfax planning commissioner he “never heard of a situation where a new bypass or a new highway route was selected by an adjacent board of supervisors, rather than the Fairfax board.”

Hart chaired the Fairfax Planning Commission from 2004 until 2019.

Fairfax Supervisors Kathy Smith, D-Sully, and Board Chair Jeff McKay, D-At Large, pushed back on the claims, saying the Fairfax board will hear from residents when Prince William County’s transportation department has completed about 60% of the bypass design. “[Prince William County] has more detailed design work to do. We’re not at that point yet in Fairfax County,” Smith said.

Smith added that two public information meetings had been held in Fairfax County over the last three years in which county officials presented potential improvements to the Va. 28 corridor, including the bypass option “Alternative 2B” selected by Prince William County, the only option that

tions office to target individuals and neighborhoods who may need and qualify for housing help.

“We haven’t been able to spend the money we thought we were going to spend,” Johnson said.

Supervisor Margaret Angela Franklin, D-Woodbridge, pushed for emergency housing assistance to be included in the county’s CARES Act spending in April. Franklin questioned the county’s housing staff during the work session about why more funds had not been spent.

“I would think that the need is a lot greater than we’ve been able to serve,” Franklin said.

The county has also only spent about $1 million out of the $5 million allocated for free COVID-19 testing as the demand for testing has fallen off in recent months. Fewer people are showing up for free tests even as the county is offering them six days a week.

The county’s small business assistance program, on the other hand, has spent about $3.8 million of the $5 million allocated by the board.

The program provides micro-grants of up to $10,000 to small businesses impacted by the pandemic.

County Finance Director Michelle Attreed said the county has not yet spent all the funds because some expenditures required agreements with

requires the road to enter Fairfax.

“We’ve worked hard in Fairfax County to inform people of the process,” Smith said. “I’m absolutely going to make sure that the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors and the constituents are aware and that they have a say going through this process.”

In an email, McKay said while Fairfax County does not have authority outside its jurisdiction, the county will “certainly have control with regards to any new realignment or change to Route 28 within Fairfax County limits.”

“Absolutely no decisions will be made about Route 28 without Fairfax County sponsored public meetings and of course, robust discussion with my colleagues on the Fairfax County Board,” McKay said.

McKay serves on the NVTA board. He voted to approve the project agreement with Prince William County earlier this month.

But some residents say the Fairfax board acted too slowly. Hart said public hearings should have happened in Fairfax around the same time they happened in Prince William County.

“It’s no substitute for the same kind of public hearing that the Prince William folks had,” Hart said. “There is a big difference between commenting on design details after the route is selected and having input into whether this road should be going through the floodplain in a regional park.”

Prince William County Transportation Director Ric Canizales said in an interview last week that Prince William County is currently discussing the route in Fairfax County. Canizales said the two locales are “talking about splitting the plan up.”

“The plan in Prince William is one, and the plan in Fairfax is another. And we’ll get that plan approved through Fairfax like we were [the Virginia Department of Transportation] or a developer coming in to do a road project in Fairfax,” Canizales said. “We don’t see a need for Fairfax to do anything but go through their approval process of approving the transition process.”

Asked what would happen if one jurisdiction approves the bypass while the other denies it, Canizales said he doesn’t see that happening.

“I think we have the support of it over there. And we have the support of their staff,” Canizales said.

EARLY VOTING, from page 1 “The expanded availability of in-person early voting has allowed Prince William County residents to participate in the democratic process in a safe and efficient manner,” Wheeler said.

Across the country, early voting has been attributed to Democratic enthusiasm, but that might not be the case in Prince William County, if early vote totals are any indication.

Early voting numbers have been highest in voting precincts in western Prince William County, with turnout in two precincts – Heritage Hunt and Alvey – topping 50%. Both precincts voted for President Donald Trump in 2016.

Thirteen of the county’s 90 voting precincts have seen turnout already top 30%. Trump won seven of those precincts in 2016, while former first lady Hillary Clinton won six.

On Monday, Oct. 19, both Del. Jennifer Carroll Foy, D-2nd, and Supervisor Margaret Franklin, D-Woodbridge, voted at the Dr. A.J. Ferlazzo building, one of the five additional polling sites that opened for the first time that day.

Foy, who is vying for the Democratic nomination to run for governor in 2021, said making it easier for Virginians to vote was a top priority for Democrats who won control of all three branches of Virginia’s government last fall for the first time in a generation.

“It’s not a partisan issue. Everyone should have access to the ballot who is eligible. So we want to make it safe and easy and efficient for people to cast their ballot,” Foy said.

Virginia’s now ranks 12th among the 50 states in ease of voting, a dramatic rise from the state’s nearly last-place ranking in 2016, according to a study by political scientists at Northern Illinois University, Jacksonville University and Wuhan University in China. The three rank states based on an index they developed that incorporates laws for both registering to vote and casting a vote in each state.

Margaret Smith took advantage of curbside early voting at the Woodbridge DMV. All polling places allow any voter to cast a ballot from their vehicle.

Voting at the McCoart building is drive-thru only.

Still, both Foy and Franklin said they can think of still more ways to make it easier for Virginians to vote. Foy said she pushed this year to send a mail-in ballot to every registered voter, as some states decided to do during the pandemic, but was ultimately unsuccessful in that effort.

Franklin said she is looking into moving at least some of Prince William County’s polling places from elementary schools, which are known for their limited parking, to more expansive locations such as commuter parking lots.

Both said they are not surprised to see more people voting this year .

“There’s a sense of urgency. People know this is the most pivotal and consequential election of our lifetimes. And so they’re voting because of …

COVID-19, the economy, the over 210,000 people dying, many of them needlessly, because of the federal failure,” Foy said. “People understand what’s at stake and what’s at risk, so they’re showing up in historic numbers.”

Chris, a 36-year-old Air Force veteran who declined to give his last name, said he came to the Ferlazzo building to vote Monday to avoid the possibility

Through Saturday, Oct. 31, all Prince William County registered voters can cast their ballots Mondays through Thursdays from 8:30 a.m. to 7 p.m. and on Fridays and Saturdays from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. at the following locations: • Piney Branch Elementary School, 8301 Linton Hall Road, Bristow • Charles J.

Also, he said he’d already made up his mind to vote for former Vice President Joe Biden, who he said is a better candidate when it comes to his core concern: equality.

“I feel like everyone should be treated equally and I don’t think that’s being shown around the world today,” he said.

Also, he said he’s tired of the political divisiveness that seems to be affecting every aspect of everyday life, including, he noted, online dating.

“It’s on all the dating profiles. If you’re for a certain political party, certain people don’t even want to associate with you,” he added. “It was never that way before. Things have never been so divided.”

GUEST OPINION

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Va.’s criminal justice reforms explained

Tactics used against Qasim Rashid nothing new

Last week, the Virginia General Assembly special session effectively ended. Gov. Ralph Northam called the session to adjust the budget after the economic harm caused by the COVID-19 crisis. After George Floyd’s May 26 murder and citizens’ demands for change, we chose to broaden our work and focus on three areas: criminal justice, policing reform and the budget. I will address criminal justice reform this week, policing reform next week and the budget changes last.

In early June, the Senate Democratic Caucus determined a limited focus on only policing would not address the bulk of harm inflicted by our criminal justice system. We invited suggestions and created a committee of Senators to vet 150 ideas, which we narrowed to 28 objectives and 11 bills.

First, we passed a racial profiling bill that prohibits police from stopping vehicles for violations arising out of subjective unverifiable judgments, such as window tint or loud exhaust violations, and prohibited searches based on an allegation of marijuana odor in light of the decriminalization of marijuana last session. This will reduce opportunities for racially-biased enforcement.

We passed legislation creating a framework for every locality in Virginia to have access to emergency mental health response teams by 2026. Treating psychiatric emergencies as mental health crises instead of law-enforcement problems will bring appropriate help to people in crisis instead of criminal charges.

The U.S. Department of Justice has authority to investigate police departments for a pattern and practice of racially-biased policing and to negotiate consent decrees to alter behavior. The Obama Administration negotiated such decrees after the deaths of Michael Brown, Tamir Rice and Freddie Gray. The Trump Administration has negotiated zero. We approved a bill giving the Virginia Attorney General the authority and staffing to investigate Virginia law enforcement agencies to pick up where the Trump Administration has refused to act.

I carried legislation that restored discretion to Virginia’s prosecutors.

In the 24 years I have practiced law, I have never seen a judge reject a prosecutor’s request to drop a case.

Judges in Arlington and Norfolk now routinely refuse to grant government requests to dismiss marijuana possession charges. My legislation requires a judge to dismiss a criminal charge upon the agreement of the government and a defendant unless a victim can establish racial bias or bribery.

SEN. SCOTT SUROVELL

My legislation also allows plea agreements to defer charges for dismissal or reduced charges after the accused completes steps such as drug treatment, mental health counseling, community service and good behavior. This had been Virginia law until the last 10 years after conservative legislators pressured judges to cease the practice, and Virginia’s appellate courts altered 200 years of Virginia law finding that measures like this were not authorized by the legislature.

We reformed Virginia’s jury sentencing law dating to 1796, enacted when felonies could only be punished by the death penalty. Today, Virginia is one of only two states in America in which prosecutors can demand a jury to recommend a sentence. Juries give sentences that often range far higher than sentencing guidelines recommend, causing many accused people to forego a trial, even when they are innocent, to avoid lengthy sentences. This will restore balance to our criminal justice system and make our constitutional promise of a right to trial by jury a reality.

The General Assembly passed legislation that allows localities to set up civilian review boards with subpoena power and real authority. Currently, many jurisdictions, including Fairfax County, have civilian review boards for police, but they are only advisory.

We expanded Virginia’s program to give inmates credit towards early release if they are of good behavior, engaged in education, and follow through on rehabilitation programs.

Today, Virginia has one of the most restrictive earned-sentence programs in the country due to measures proposed by now-U.S. Attorney General Bill Barr in 1995.

We hope these reforms will bring broader, structural change to Virginia’s criminal justice system and mitigate 200 years of outdated policies that have caused unnecessary harm and fallen disproportionately upon low-income people and communities of color. I was proud to be part of this historic effort.

I hope you will share your views by emailing me at scott@scottsurovell.org.

The writer represents the 36th District, which includes parts of Fairfax, Prince William and Stafford counties, in the state Senate.

A Virginian lawyer, Qasim Rashid is seeking to become the state’s first elected American Muslim congressman as he runs against incumbent Rep. Rob Wittman in Virginia’s 1st District, to serve in the U.S. House of Representatives.

Mr. Rashid’s opponent is attacking him for his faith as the race tightens and Election Day approaches. Sadly, these tactics are not new.

And in Virginia, they are actually historic, because nearly 250 years ago, another Virginian lawyer was

attacked by his opponents as he ran for office.

And while he was not a Muslim, he was actually “accused” of being one because he advocated for religious toleration and civil rights for Muslims. Fortunately, these views, rare at the time, would later contribute to his success -- as the third president of the United States and one of the founding fathers of this great nation.

DR. AHSAN M. KHAN Fullerton, California

Rep. Rob Wittman is strong on defense, veterans I have known Congressman Rob Wittman for years, and he works tirelessly to ensure that the readiness of our nation’s military, to improve our capabilities, and to have overmatch over any adversary.

His opponent, Qasim Rashid, on the other hand, referred to the rebuilding of our military under President Trump as a “massive— and unnecessary—increase in defense spending.” To consider limiting our defense budget in this era of renewed great power competition is short-sighted, foolhardy and dangerous.

Congressman Wittman is a bipartisan leader on House Armed Services Committee. We need members of Congress who support a strong military, ensuring our national security, not those who support radical members or agendas

of their party, especially given the current security environment.

I am concerned by Rashid’s tweets about America’s foreign policy and our military. His lack of respect is startling. Rashid needs to stand by his words and not hide from them now that he’s getting pushback for his radical positions.

He wasn’t ashamed of his tweets back then; he shouldn’t be now that they are being questioned by Congressman Wittman.

I support Congressman Rob Wittman. He also strongly supports veterans’ needs, advocating tirelessly for better facilities and services available to all veterans in Virginia and to recognize all those who have and continue to serve.

DOUG MORRISON Gainesville

Re-elect U.S. Sen. Mark Warner Sen. Mark Warner has served as Virginia’s governor and two sixyear terms in the U.S. Senate. He is running for a third term on Nov. 3.

He is known as an outstanding senator who brings both sides of the aisle together to address problems. Perhaps his greatest accomplishment is his service as vice chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee, where he served for the past three years and led the Senate’s analysis of the President Trump’s involvement with Russia and Ukraine. He led an outstanding review of one of our nation’s most critical issues.

Sen. Warner’s many accomplishments are in health care, service to military families and strengthening our economy during the current recession. He was a leader in addressing our massive economic problems in the aftermath of COVID-19.

These stimulus bills were written to serve individuals, small businesses, large businesses, hospitals and public health, federal safety nets, local governments and public education.

Sens. Warner and Tim Kaine have worked closely to address Virginia’s problems. They sponsored legislation for workers’ protections with the re-opening of federal offices during the COVID pandemic. They also sponsored legislation to provide a $20 million grant for Hampton University to support Virginia’s workforce innovation program.

Sen. Warner has distinguished himself as a competent legislator who gets things done for Virginians and performs his duties with considerable integrity.

A real American restaurant

By Aileen M. Streng Contributing Writer

A local wounded warrior and his partner have opened a restaurant that honors and celebrates the founding fathers and their quest for freedom as well the modern-day patriots who maintain it.

Josh Himan, a 36-year-old Marine veteran who grew up and still lives in Woodbridge, and his partner Ed Keels launched B. Franklin’s American Tavern on Memorial Day. It’s located near Potomac Mills mall in a building that was formerly The Knife restaurant at 14425 New Bedford Way. Himan is a retired Marine corporal who sustained spinal cord injuries from a roadside bomb in Afghanistan in September 2009 and is paralyzed from the chest down. He graduated from C.D. Hylton High School in 2002 and grew up playing baseball for Dale City Little League.

Keels has been in the restaurant industry for 40 years. He has started and managed about 20 businesses, in-

cluding the business consulting firm Breakeven Inc. Himan received some training from Breakeven Inc. and became friends with Keels before they launched the new restaurant together. “[Himan] is one of the reasons why in our business. We honor not only our founding fathers but all those who have fought to maintain our freedom,” Keels said. “[Himan] is a true man of honor and one that lives every day for those who didn’t make it. Because of that, and his always positive attitude, it was an easy decision to partner with him.”

Himan said they wanted to make a real American restaurant.

“We went back and looked at what the founding fathers used to eat,” Himan said. “We took the recipes of the food they used to eat in the 18th century and brought it up to today.”

They also decided to focus the menu, in part, to the likes of the founding fathers.

Ben Franklin was a vegetarian for the first half of his life and loved apples.

“So, we try to put apples in any place we can,” Keels said. That includes apple crisps for dessert, a grilled cheese sandwich with applewood bacon, cheese and thin slices of apple.

“Everything we do is a little mod-

Another tip to the founding fathers is the restaurant’s macaroni and cheese.

Thomas Jefferson was fond of French food and brought a slave with him to France to go to culinary school, promising him if he did, he would free him.

Jefferson did free the slave who learned how to cook mac and cheese. “That guy is responsible for the first mac and cheese recipe in America,” Keels said.

B. Franklins opened Memorial Day, but due to pandemic restrictions was limited to curbside and delivery for a time and then outdoor-only dining.

Once Virginia entered Phase 3 of the state’s reopening on July 1, it opened for both indoor and outdoor dining.

“The restaurant is doing quite well.

We are getting a lot of return custom-

ers. I just don’t have the massive traffic coming from the mall,” he said.

Still, the restaurant is following the guidelines of mask wearing, sanitizing and social distancing.

The restaurant features two dining rooms, the Liberty Lounge with couches and wing-back chairs, and the Chef’s Counter where diners can watch the chef prepare their three-course meal.

“It’s fun. The grills get hot and you can watch the chef cook. A lot of people enjoy it,” Himan said.

Himan said he enjoys being in the restaurant business. “I like having a place where family and friends can come,” he said. “I also like that every day when I go into the restaurant, I meet someone new.”

NO RUNNING, NO HITTING, BUT IT’S FOOTBALL Northwestern District schools link up in 7-on-7 fall passing leagues

By Peter Brewington

The presence of 7-on-7 football leagues is bringing relief to some local football programs in the Class 3 and 4 Northwestern District.

Because it’s a passing league, linemen don’t play, but still, “It’s phenomenal,” said Fauquier High coach Karl Buckwalter.

Times Staff Writer

Who says there’s no high school football this fall?

Thanks to the presence of a 7-on7 passing league, Fauquier and Liberty went toe-to-toe last Saturday morning in a renewal of their ageold rivalry. Fauquier led most of the game before Liberty pulled out a 33-29 victory with the game over in about an hour.

While the result mattered, the bigger news is the presence of football, made possible by the impetus of the three Fauquier County high school activities directors, who found an outlet for their kids and coaches this fall.

“We’re ecstatic the kids get to play.

We can work on our stuff,” said Fauquier coach Karl Buckwalter. “We’re not trying to play gadget defenses or do things just to win the passing league. We’re working on our stuff and our coverages. We’re changing coverages and it’s being filmed.”

The six-school league began Sept.

23 and runs until Nov. 7 when a postseason tournament will be held at Liberty.

The league consists of separate “A” and “B” and teams from FHS, LHS, Kettle Run, Culpeper County, Skyline and Warren County high schools.

There are also four “C” squads consisting of freshman and eighth grade teams, one each at FHS, LHS, Kettle Run and Warren County.

Elsewhere, three other Winchester-area Northwestern District teams – Mllbrook, Sherando and James Wood – are competing in a six-week 7-on-7 league sponsored by Frederick County Parks & Recreation.

Unity Reed activities director Kevin Turner was not aware of any Prince William County schools encouraging participation in 7-on-7 leagues, but wouldn’t be surprised if some players were playing somewhere.

Fauquier County coaches and officials emphasize their league is being run by an AAU program called Team Virginia Athletics, and not a formal high school league. “You have to be a member of a high school team, but it doesn’t have anything to do with the high school. It’s an AAU team paying to use our fields,” said Kettle Run activities director Paul Frye.

Players registered with Team Virginia Athletics and paid a $60 fee to join.

“There are rosters that are turned into the ADs everyday from the schools,” said Fauquier AD Mark Ott. “Those rosters have to match up with who registered for the league.

You can’t add kids part of the way through. It’s only the kids who originally signed up.”

They’re using only Liberty, Fauquier and Kettle Run as venues.

They play on a condensed field of 40 yards with the regular end zone used. No pads are worn and play is one-hand touch. There’s no contact and the ball is only advanced by passing. They play 20-minute halves with a running clock. The rules are intriguing. Defenses can score points by stopping the offense from getting a first down or producing a turnover.

The league employs the officials used in the regular season. “They’re having their football fix and we’re having our football fix. It’s well-run.

Kudos to the three athletic directors,” said Fauquier’s Buckwalter.

Frye said COVID-19 safety practices are an important part of the league. “There were other private leagues doing it. We didn’t really like the way they were being run with the protocols they had in place,” Frye said. “But our kids wanted something to do, and we weren’t going to allow our coaches to encourage them to go down there.”

Seven-on-7 passing leagues are normally played in the summer before fall football, but with the Virginia High School League (VHSL) pushing the fall sports season to late winter, there was a void.

Liberty coach Travis Buzzo said the league is a huge boost to his players’ self-esteem.

“Even if this league does not help them get better, at least it helps them get out there and have fun. This (pandemic) has been tough on the kids. When we came back (to workouts) in July, most of the kids were struggling mentally,” said Buzzo.

Buckwalter says safety protocols are being enforced. When players come to a game, they wear a mask as they approach a coach, who screens them by asking a series of questions.

A player’s temperature is taken, then they can enter the stadium. When the game is over, they leave via a different direction.

The league is helping coaches get their skill players real action, which has been elusive since the pandemic hit. Until this week football players could only work out in pods of ten, with no formal practice. With between 60 to 85 football players working out, Buzzo said Liberty is often on the field from 3:45 to 7 p.m.,

getting everyone in. On Tuesday, guidelines loosened up, allowing for pod size to grow to 30 players and coaches combined for workouts.

Buckwalter said he’s carrying 17 players on the “A” team, 17 on “B” and 15 or so on the youth team. The top team consists of most of his projected starting receivers and secondary, with chances for players to move up or down between teams.

“We’re using all the kids to see how they react. It’s competition for our team. The kids want jobs,” said Buckwalter.

Buzzo is using 13 players each

on two of his teams, and 11 on the other. “It’s returning starters and seniors on the A team. Our B team is sophomores and some juniors not on the team last year, or not projected starters. Our C team is eighth and ninth graders,” he said.

Because teams cannot safely huddle under pandemic protocols, coaches cannot mingle in the huddles like a normal 7-on-7 summer league.

Last Saturday’s FHS-LHS game was played at 11 a.m. on a sunny, crisp 50-degree morning. While it didn’t have the importance of their regular season Bird Bowl matchup, the game was certainly a preview for the upcoming season with two of the Northwestern District’s top returning quarterbacks in Liberty’s Dylan Bailey and Fauquier’s J.T. Diehl on display.

“I was not very excited. They jumped on us quick. It was under two minutes when we took our first lead of the game,” said Buzzo.

“The kids get after it. There’s no casualness with any of the teams. They want to win, the coaches want to win.

But you have to keep it in perspective, it’s touch football,” said Buckwalter.

OBITUARIES Barbara Marlene Zyla Barbara Marlene Zyla, 65, of Warrenton, Virginia passed away peacefully on October 13, 2020, at MedStar Georgetown University Hospital in Washington, D.C. after a long, courageous battle against cancer and liver disease.

She was born May 7, 1955, in Shirley, Massachusetts to the late Clifford H. Putnam and Muriel A. Putnam.

Mrs. Zyla was a graduate of Fauquier High School and lived in Warrenton with her family for nearly 40 years. Her late father was a U.S. Army veteran of 28 years who served in WWII, and the Korean and Vietnam conflicts before settling in Warrenton. While growing up, Barbara, her parents, and Barbara’s sister Betty, lived in many parts of the United States, including California, Washington state, Texas, and Alaska. While living in Alaska, her family survived the 1964 magnitude 9.2 Good Friday earthquake that devastated Anchorage.

Mrs. Zyla was a dedicated federal government worker, who diligently served the nation and the federal government for 47 years. Barbara was a loving spouse and mother, as well as a faithful friend of numerous co-workers and mentor to many people she supervised during her years of federal service.

Barbara is survived by her husband of 44 years, Theodore E. Zyla, and her sister, Betty Pilcher, both of Warrenton; two sons, David T. Zyla (Stefanie) of Fairfax, and Daniel B. Zyla (Brittany Owen) of Daytona Beach, Florida; two nephews, Brad P. Pilcher, and Jason A. Pilcher (Elaina); great nephews Kadin and Mason; and great niece Alexa.

At her request, a private internment will take place at Stonewall Memorial Gardens near the Manassas National Battlefield Park.

Memorial contributions may be made to MedStar Georgetown University Hospital, 3800 Reservoir Road NW, Washington, DC 20007.

Mary Margaret Byergo Mary Margaret Byergo passed peacefully at her home in Warrenton Virginia on October 9, 2020. She was born in Maryville, Missouri on October 26, 1930, the daughter of the late Austin Gregory Felton and Eva Margaret Felton.

She is survived by her husband of 70 years, Keith Morris Byergo. They were high school sweethearts, married December 23, 1950.

Keith joined the Agency for International Development and in February 1960 they took their first international flight to Iran and spent 15 happy years in the Middle East and Asia. Loving adventure and travel, Mary Margaret was always curious about exploring another country. She made a true home for her family in each posting telling her daughters, “Every posting is what you make of it.” She said that about life too. She managed the family farms in Missouri, Iowa, and Wyoming, from around the world. When the family came home to the United States and settled in Virginia she found her passion raising, training and competing Arabian horses. One of her proudest achievements was successfully raising a set of Arabian twin foals, a rare feat. She served as the Field Master of the Pohick Hunt in Virginia for several years. In her Fifties she began competing in 100 mile endurance trail riding, completing dozens of 100 mile races. In 1990 she competed in the World Equestrian Games as a member of the United States Endurance Team in Stockholm, Sweden.

She was a lifelong member of PEO, a Sorority Sister of Alpha Gama Delta, and a member of the Warrenton antiquarians.

She is deeply missed and remembered by friends and family for her strong spirit, keen wit, and the firm support she gave each of us to be true to ourselves.

Martino in his capacity as County Executive consents to accept the jurisdiction of the Federal Courts if an action is brought to enforce responsibilities in relation to the environmental review process and that these responsibilities have been satisfied. HUD’s approval of the certification satisfies its responsibilities under NEPA and related laws and authorities and allows Prince William County Office of Housing & Community Development to use Program funds.

OBJECTIONS TO RELEASE OF FUNDS HUD will accept objections to its release of funds and the Prince William County Office of Housing and Community Development certification for a period of fifteen days following the anticipated submission date or its actual receipt of the request (whichever is later) only if they are on one of the following bases: (a) the certification was not executed by the Certifying Officer of the Prince William County; (b) Prince William County has omitted a step or failed to make a decision or finding required by HUD regulations at 24 CFR Part 58; (c) the grant recipient or other participants in the development process have committed funds or incurred costs or undertaken activities not authorized by 24 CFR Part 58 before approval of a release of funds by HUD; or (d) another Federal agency acting pursuant to 40 CFR Part 1504 has submitted a written finding that the project is unsatisfactory from the standpoint of environmental quality. Objections must be prepared and submitted in accordance with the required procedures (24 CFR Part 58, Sec.58.76) and shall be addressed to HUD, 820 First Street, N.E., Suite 450, Washington, DC 20002-4255, Attention: Mr. Michael D.
