Unity Braxton Middle students say they feel safer at school By Anya Sczerzenie Times Staff Writer

Umbrellas. Perfume bottles. Silverware. Spiral notebooks. Even an inhaler. Those were some of the items flagged by the Evolv weapons detection system in the first week of its rollout at Unity Braxton Middle School in Manassas. But school officials, teachers and students say that what matters most is what the machines didn’t see. “I think as we go, learning the system, we will find other random things that set it off, but the purpose of the system is to deter a more serious situation,” said Eduardo Garcia, a Unity Braxton teacher who volunteers to help students go through the Evolv detectors in the morning. “I think it’s going to do its job. As far as dangerous stuff that we’re trying to avoid and keep out of the schools, I think it will do well—and be a deterrent.” The detectors, which use artificial intelligence to recognize certain object shapes and materials such as metal, have been turned on for a week and have had what Principal Mary Jane Boynton calls a “smooth rollout,” with most students able to walk right through without stopping.

“I think the rollout has gone even better than my expectations,” Boynton said. “The students have been outstanding and have adapted to one additional step as they walk in the door every morning.” The school division has introduced the new Evolv weapons detectors at all 35 middle and high schools. The systems bacame operational on a staggered schedule over the last several weeks. So far, the only weapon the Evolv detectors found was a small pocketknife at Garfield High School last week. But the detectors have been working as a deterrent for other things. According to Boynton, incidences of vaping at Unity Braxton Middle School have dropped to zero since the detectors were introduced, which she attributes to students’ fear of having their vape pens confiscated The school board voted earlier this year to spend about $10.7 million to lease the Evolv detectors for four years. All students coming into middle and high schools in the morning must walk through them, and teachers too, if they arrive after the detectors are turned on. The exception at Unity Braxton is one teacher with a pacemaker who has to be searched with a metal detecting wand instead. See DETECTORS, page 2

Prince William County needs more housing, especially more affordable housing. But county officials need more tools to reach those goals, and some supervisors say progress isn’t coming fast enough. “We need to average about 3,000 new units in the county,” said Wade Hugh, deputy county executive for development services, during a recent board of supervisors work session on affordable housing. That’s the number of housing units the county needs to add each year through 2030 to meet the housing goals set by the Metropolitan Washington Council of Governments.

Schools roll out weapon scanners DETECTORS, from page 1 If the detector flags something, its light turns red and it beeps, prompting staff to take the student and their belongings into the auditorium for a further search, which usually takes only a minute. Most of the time, students are just told not to take the offending item to school the next day. “It goes by quicker than you’d think it would,” said Shaniya Crews, an eighth grader. “The first time I went through, I was thinking, ‘Oh, no, how much stuff am I going to have to bring out?’ I think it was called BLUE—binders, laptops, umbrellas, eyeglass cases.” Most students at Unity Braxton have taken to wearing their backpacks on their fronts when they walk through the school doors, which makes it easier to take out things like their laptops, metal water bottles, binders and umbrellas. Those items need to be handed around the detectors to attendants before the students step through. Students with musical instrument cases must walk through

the detectors with them, which sometimes alerts and sometimes doesn’t, according to Garcia. “I think students have adjusted to whatever miscellaneous items might set it off, and we’re getting less of those,” said Garcia, who is a physical education teacher. Garcia said that he volunteered to help partially because he enjoys greeting students before school, but the extra $32 an hour paid to teachers while they help with the detectors was also a motivation. Garcia said there are still some “kinks in the system” that need to be worked out, but overall students are getting used to the detectors. “So far, it’s been kind of inconsistent. For example, yesterday it was set off by an inhaler. But an inhaler, in a silhouette, could look like a weapon.” Students are also now able to take their backpacks to class because their contents have been screened, where before they had to store them in their lockers during class time. The change makes it easier to tote their stuff between classes. “I remember telling my mom, ‘We finally can keep our bags,’” Crews said. “Carrying all your stuff without a bag is kind of annoying. You’d have to carry around all your binders and books; people were constantly dropping books.”

Students had already practiced walking through the detectors with their social studies classes before they were officially introduced, and staff received training, as well. Around 6% of the students caused an alert the first day of rollout, but the number had dropped down to an average of 2% per day a week later. On Oct. 24, 3% of students caused an alert. As an added precaution, school employees are forbidden from touching the sensitivity settings on the detectors themselves, according to Boynton. The school district’s risk management team adjusts them if there is a threat to a school. So far, that has not happened. Eighth-grade student Jaiden Harris said that he feels a general sense of safety from the detectors being in the school and said he is less worried about violence. “I would say kids have calmed down more with the detectors, because perhaps, this is just what I saw, but they made me feel more safe going to school,” Harris said. “The kids know that if someone has something that could harm them, that it’s been checked and confiscated, if it’s bad enough.” Reach Anya Sczerzenie at asczerzenie@fauquier.com

Nearly a third of Prince William high school students still learning English drop out DROP OUT, from page 1 In 2023, 28.7% of students learning English as a second language dropped out before graduation in 2023, up from 24.4% in 2022. The rate has been increasing for at least the past three years. The group with the next-highest dropout rate, Hispanic students, had 14.6% students drop out before graduating in 2023. Though many Hispan-

ic students are EL students, the two groups are not the same, said Michael Neall, the school division’s director of research, accountability and planning. Only 71% of students who were still learning English graduated on time in 2023, down from 74.9% in 2022. This is a stark contrast to the school district’s overall on-time graduation rate, which was 91.7% last year and 91.8% the year before. No group other than English learn-

ers had a graduation rate under 80%. During a “State of the Schools” presentation at the Oct. 18 school board meeting, Neall presented statistics about students’ SOL scores, SAT participation, graduation rates and reading levels. Along with Hispanic students and those with disabilities, English language learners were behind in many of these areas. School board Chair Babur Lateef said many students learning English drop out is because of the added pressure of having to take extra classes. In Prince William County schools, the classes that English learner students take to increase their grasp of the language don’t count for a regular high school credit, so students must take extra classes—often during summer school, to catch up, Lateef said. “Then life happens; they have to work, and eventually they just feel depressed,” Lateef said. “A lot of students are August dropouts—they don’t enroll in school for their junior or senior year.” Lateef said that the current system is not working for students, and that the school division needs to come up with something better. In the meantime, the school division is making efforts to get students to graduate on time. The division has begun employ-

ing “graduation coaches” to help students who are identified as having a risk of dropping out or not graduating on time. However, schools are already short on counselors, and many support positions are hard to fill, Lateef said. Schools have also been providing translations at family events and back-to-school nights, hoping to get parents of English learner students more involved. Fernanda Morante, the student representative on the school board, said she is concerned about the low graduation rate for students learning English. As an immigrant herself, originally from Peru, Morante voiced those concerns during the school board meeting. “I asked if the county was reaching out to the parents of Hispanic and (English learning) students to see if there was a correlation between low percentages (of graduation) and their family situation,” said Morante, who is a senior at Forest Park High School, in an interview after the meeting. “Then, I asked if there was anything that we as students could do to lessen the problem. So now, the student Senate and the student voice committee are going to work on that.” Reach Anya Sczerzenie at asczerzenie@fauquier.com HOW TO REACH US

Sheriff’s race is a quiet rematch of 2019

Sheriff Glen Hill again faces a challenge from Josh King By Cher Muzyk

Times Staff Writer

Incumbent Sheriff Glen Hill, a Republican, is again facing a challenge from Josh King, a Democrat, in the upcoming Nov. 7 election. Hill, 76, narrowly defeated King, 42, in the 2019 race by only 762 votes in a three-way race in which 111,802 votes were cast for the top two candidates, according to the Virginia Department of Elections. Hill has a long history in the county. Following his honorable discharge from the U.S. Army in 1969, Hill was the first African American to serve on the City of Manassas police force and has served in law enforcement ever since, including nearly 20 years as sheriff. King served two tours of duty in Iraq and has worked as a Fairfax County sheriff’s deputy for 16 years. This year’s sheriff’s race is much quieter than the last time around because a flashpoint issue in the last election—the county’s decade-long 287(g) agreement with Immigration and Customs Enforcement—is no longer an issue. The Prince William-Manassas Jail Board ended its controversial agreement with federal immigration en-

forcement officials known as 287(g) in July 2020. The move came after the board of supervisors, which had a 5-3 Democratic majority for the first time after the 2019 election, appointed a new slate of members to the jail board. The 287(g) agreement, which is voluntary for localities, had long been a point of contention. Under the agreement, local sheriff’s deputies in the jail were trained to effectively work as ICE agents, giving ICE direct access to local inmates for the purpose of investigating their immigration. The system allowed ICE to take custody of inmates before their criminal cases were adjudicated, sometimes leading to their deportation. Critics, including a former Prince William County police chief, said the agreement led to a chilling effect between police and the local Hispanic community, members of which were sometimes reluctant to cooperate with police. King made ending 287(g) a key issue in his campaign. King raked in $145,812 in donations in 2019, outraising Hill by about $40,000. This year, both have raised far less. So far, Hill has raised $58,607 to King’s $41,161. CASA in Action, a nonprofit immigrant advocacy group, supported King in 2019 and is his biggest donor in 2023, with its PAC giving King $24,461 on Sept. 29, according to recent campaign finance reports compiled by the Virginia

Sheriff Glen Hill

Public Access Project. After more than 50 years in law enforcement, Hill has campaigned heavily on his leadership experience. At a candidate forum hosted last month by the Prince William County NAACP, Hill said: “Everything starts with the leader. Every deputy sheriff that works in this county, that works for me, works in my image. So, when you see a deputy sheriff, you can just about say, ‘Well, that’s Glen Hill,’ because that’s my responsibility to be a leader.” King said he wants to “train a new generation of deputy sheriffs,” according to his website.

If elected, King said he will focus on keeping the community safe, reducing recidivism rates, ending the local school-to-prison pipeline and enhancing safety at the judicial center. King and his wife, Del. Candi King, D-2nd, live with their family in Dumfries. Hill says his top priority is putting citizens and community first and wants to build on previous accomplishments, including upgraded courthouse security and implementing a body-worn camera program. Hill resides in Manassas with his wife, Carolyn. Reach Cher Muzyk at cmuzyk@ fauquier.com

Amazon tones down its noise after residents sound alarm After a year, Great Oak finally got some relief from the noisy data centers next door By Peter Cary

Piedmont Journalism Foundation

It’s been 18 months since residents of Great Oak, a 291-home subdivision south of Manassas, began to hear the mind-numbing noise—a low-pitched roar topped with a tinny screech— from a complex of Amazon data centers next door. Now, after many meetings with Amazon and costly engineering work, the data center operator has managed to reduce the sound by 10 decibels — cutting its loudness in half. The work is not done. Residents say the screechy part of the noise remains, and Amazon is working on that, too. But overall, things are quieter in the tidy, tree-lined streets of Great Oak. “It’s helped. Obviously, they have done something, because it doesn’t roar through the house anymore,” said John Biess, a Great Oak resident who, with his wife Gloria, has been taking daily measurements of the noise since May 2022. “Residents confirm that the steps we’re taking at the facility are already having a positive impact, and we continue to reengineer and install new equipment to further reduce unwanted sounds,” Amazon spokesman Duncan Neasham in an email. “We are constantly innovating our data center designs to minimize the impact on our neighbors and the environment.” But the assurances from Amazon don’t entirely capture the struggle Great Oak residents endured to make their neighborhood quiet again. According to Dale Browne, the homeowners’ association president, it took two months to get Amazon into talks, which were hampered at first by company pushback. After an initial try at muffling didn’t work, Amazon started testing the complicated fix that made a difference. The saga also holds some lessons. One is that neighbors who want data centers to change their ways must be “determined and tenacious,’ said Browne. Another is it helps to get public officials involved. A third is that citizen demonstrations and heavy media coverage do not hurt. And the last is that data centers don’t have to be noisy. They can be retrofitted to be quieter, or they can be built quieter to start with. The data center Amazon is planning for Warrenton will use rooftop cooling units muffled with insulation. But Amazon has yet to deliver studies to the town to predict the noise those units will produce.

How it started: Great Oak resident called the cops on Amazon

One key date in the saga is May 16, 2022. That’s when John Biess and his wife Gloria called the county police to complain that the screech, hum and roar coming from the just-built data centers 600 feet to the north, behind a forest of oaks, were likely louder

Amazon elongated the metal cylinders to quiet the low groaning noise emanating from the tubes. The change has made a difference, Great Oak residents say.

Dale Browne, president of the Great Oak homeowner’s association, takes the megaphone during an August 2022 protest residents held outside the Amazon data center complex beside their neighborhood. The aim of the protest was to call attention to the annoying and unceasing buzzing noise emanating from the buildings, which has since been quieted as a result of an Amazon engineering fix. than the county’s noise ordinance allowed. “The first officer that came over (and) he said, ‘Yeah, that’s pretty loud,’” Biess recalled. It was not just the Biesses and the police officer. Other residents said the non-stop noise made it difficult to sleep, gave them headaches and ruined outdoor activities. Some said it was worse at night—a point later confirmed by the Biess’s decibel meter, which detected up to 65 decibels of noise at night. (The county noise ordinance limits noise to 55 decibels at night in residential areas but at the time exempted noise from cooling systems.) One Great Oak resident, Carlos Yanes, ordered $20,000 worth of new windows and moved his one-year-old’s crib to the basement. Several talked of leaving. They would later mount demonstrations in front of the offending Amazon data center complex on Tanner Way off Godwin Drive, southwest of the City of Manassas. On May 23, 2022, with complaints increasing, Browne emailed his county supervisor, Yesli Vega, R-Coles. She contacted then-county acting planning director Rebecca Horner, who asked Amazon for a meeting. It was finally scheduled for July 22, 2022, and began a series of 15 in-person and Zoom meetings with Amazon officials that stretched over a year. Amazon sent a half-dozen people, led by Rob Corradi, their chief of public policy for the Mid-Atlantic. The residents had their own experts. Browne had been technical director of a financial institution that had three data centers. John Biess had run a small Bitcoin minting operation. Yanes worked with air conditioning. From the county came Horner and three aides to supervisors. Other area residents included Kathy Kulick, vice-chair of an association of homeowners’ associations that joined forces to object to data center proliferation, and John Lyver, a former NASA engineer who had studied noise issues. How the meetings proceeded is a matter of some dispute. Amazon, in a written statement, said, “From the moment we were made aware of this situation, we immediately started engaging with the community. … We’ve met with, and continue to meet with, local residents to advise them on our plans.” The Great Oak contingent has a different recollection. They say it took six weeks, even with the help of county officials, to get Amazon to the table. Then, they said, Amazon officials were reluctant to share how their cooling system worked or what might be causing the noise. Amazon said it was all proprietary. As the meetings moved along, it became clear that the problem stemmed from the method of server cooling: Outside air is drawn into the building through large louvered windows high on their exterior walls. That air, cooled by indoor

air conditioning units, is forced across hot computer servers and then blown out of the building through rooftop exhaust tubes. Each building’s roof has more than 100 of these steel tubes, each one about five feet in diameter and eight feet tall with a huge fan inside. Realizing that the fans and the exhaust tubes were the source of much of the noise, Amazon first tried wrapping the tubes in padded blankets. Even then, Browne says, Amazon was reluctant to share details. That ended when Browne used a drone and a telephoto camera to get photos of the rooftop operations and showed them to Amazon at a meeting. “Their community is getting the results they’re getting because the folks in their HOA just wouldn’t take no for an answer,” said Kulick. After that, Tim Hall, Amazon’s vice president of infrastructure operations for the Americas, took over the team, and Browne said by October 2022 communication improved. (Hall declined to be interviewed.)

Amazon engineers try Plan B

Amazon, it turned out, had a Plan A and a Plan B. Plan A was the padded blankets, or “shrouds” as Amazon called them. But they were not cutting the sound, so even as Amazon doubled them up, it turned to Plan B. That involved a serious engineering project: making the fans quieter and more efficient and making the tubes three feet taller. Taller tubes would exhaust the air more vertically and less toward neighboring Great Oak. Meanwhile, the company was working on redesigning the fan controls to turn them slower and synchronizing them for efficiency. The installation required two huge cranes and took four months. But by August 18, all 424 rooftop exhaust tubes and fans had been replaced with the new extended tubes. The sound level immediately dropped 10 points to around 50 decibels, according to both residents’ and Amazon’s measurements. Amazon will not say what it cost other than “considerable engineering and resources,” according to an Amazon statement. Browne guesses it cost as much as $30 million, based on informal conversations with Amazon officials at the meetings. “The noise coming off the fans, those 450 fans on the roof, has really dropped off,” said Biess. But he said there is still a screeching sound emanating from the open louvers in the buildings’ sides. He thinks it comes from small fans on the computer equipment; Brown thinks it comes from the fans that move the cooling air. Whatever it is, Amazon vows to fix it next. “We are also in the process of designing acoustical louvers. When installed, they will further reduce sound,” the company said. Browne thinks the noise drop is pretty remarkable but notes that his subdivision will still suffer from the “additive noise of multiple centers” surrounding it. Great Oak will soon have to contend with more data centers. Another two-story data center, known as “Project Gold,” is nearly finished across from the four-building Amazon data center complex. Another complex is planned next door to Amazon’s. Called “Digital Second Manassas,” it will consist of four two-story buildings with more than 1.6 million square feet of data center space. Both projects are about two-tenths of a mile from the nearest Great Oak home. And a quarter mile from Great Oak, across Prince William Parkway from Amazon, a CloudHQ campus with three 100-foot-high buildings is planned. Browne and the Great Oak residents hope they won’t have to fight this battle again. If someone else does, they can offer some advice: “You have to keep kind of banging the drum—and be loud,” Browne said. “Engage respectfully but in an affirmative way. Use the county and be noisy with the media. Know what you need; know what you want; know what should be right and wrong. And hold them to account.” Reach Peter Cary at news@fauquier.com

Supervisors adopt county’s 1st environmental master plan

Critics call it ‘greenwashing’ amid data center expansion By Shannon Clark Times Staff Writer

In a party-line vote, Prince William supervisors approved on Tuesday the county’s first-ever plan that sets goals for reducing greenhouse gas emissions and transitioning to sustainable energy. But the board’s three Republicans called it “hypocritical” that their Democratic counterparts, who hold a 5-3 majority, adopted such a plan while considering a massive expansion of the county’s data center industry. Data centers require an enormous amount of electricity, most of which is supplied by fossil fuels. Supervisor Bob Weir, R-Gainesville, said that if the board adopts the plan, it would be “the largest act of hypocrisy by this board in history.” Weir also objected to the cost of the plan, which is estimated between $222 and $412 million, according to an engineering firm the county hired to help write it. “It’s nothing more than greenwash,” Weir said. “And it’s very expensive greenwash. In fact, it transforms nothing. You’ve already set the stage for damage that can’t be undone.” Weir’s comments referred to the Prince William Digital Gateway, a plan to transform 2,100 formerly protected acres adjacent to Manassas National Battlefield Park into a corridor of as many as 34 new data centers. The project is scheduled for public hearings and a possible vote on Dec. 12, during the current board’s lame duck period. Because of that timing, Weir and Supervisors Jeanine Lawson, R-Brentsville, and Yesli Vega, R-Coles, attempted to defer a decision on the “community energy and sustainability master plan” until after the new board takes office in Jan-

Goals of Prince William County’s first community energy, sustainability master plan 1. Reduce greenhouse gas emissions countywide to 50% below 2005 levels by 2030. 2. Source 100% of electricity countywide from renewable sources by 2035. 3. Use 100% renewable electricity in county government operations by 2030. 4. Achieve 100% carbon neutrality in county government operations by 2050. 5. Become a climate ready region and make significant progress to be toward becoming a climate resilient region by 2030.

uary 2024. But that attempt died in a 3-5 vote with all of the board’s Democrats voting in opposition. Vega said the supervisors’ biggest impacts on the local environment come through their votes on land use projects and said they need to balance what they can do for the environment with what taxpayers will support and can afford. “We are sitting here talking about goals, folks, but yet again, we are okay with approving the largest data center hub anywhere,” Vega said, referencing the PW Digital Gateway. Supervisor Kenny Boddye, D-Occoquan, a chief supporter of the plan, said that while he agrees with comments on the environmental impact of supervisors’ land-use votes, the plan is needed to provide a sustainability framework for future decisions. “If you really want to have more information as a board when we’re making land-use votes, you want to support (this plan),” Boddye said. “I see this as the chance for us to finally move and become leaders in the region on sustainability, environmental stewardship and environmental justice,” Boddye said. The plan focuses on five goals the supervisors adopted back in November 2020 and includes 25 actions

that have been “prioritized for immediate execution” by the county government. The plan has been in the works since June 2022, according to Giulia Manno, the county’s environmental and sustainability officer. The plan is based on 2018 measures of local greenhouse gas outputs due to the COVID-19 pandemic affecting 2020 data, said Tauhirah Abudl-Matin, lead project manager with contractor AECOM. Goals number 1 and 5 were adopted from the Metropolitan Washington Council of Government’s regional goals. The board developed goals 2 through 4, which focus on incorporating renewable energy and carbon neutrality into county government operations, Manno said. Of the five goals, reducing the county’s greenhouse gas emissions by 2030 is a priority that can only be achieved by reducing emissions both in the community and the county government. Some priorities for reducing emissions include upgrading public transit infrastructure, promoting renewable energy incentive programs and improving pedestrian and bicycle infrastructure, the plan says. In Virginia, counties cannot force businesses or residents to purchase only electric vehicles or to use only carbon-free electricity. Instead, the county will aim to incentivize these programs as a means reducing emissions. In July, the county supervisors waived all permitting fees associated with residential solar for one year, beginning on Sept 1. The plan includes some information about the impacts of the county’s growing data center industry, including projections of the facilities’ greenhouse gas emissions through 2050. The plan also says that some data centers in the county are “already procuring 100% of clean electricity for their operations.” As for what’s next, Boddye called on County Executive Chris Shorter to layout the initial steps for implementing the plan’s strategies.

Opposition mounts to ‘web’ of new transmission lines Additions are needed for ‘data center alley,’ regulators say By Peter Cary

Piedmont Journalism Foundation

The Piedmont Environmental Council and other citizen groups have a message for anyone who will listen in Fauquier and Prince William counties: New high-power transmission lines are coming. Their latest effort involved a meeting with 170 residents at Buchanan Hall in Upperville on Monday night, at which they unveiled a map of transmission line projects being considered by PJM Interconnection, which runs the power grid in Virginia and 13 states. PJM is looking at proposals to deliver more power to data center alley, which it now defines as an area stretching from the data center epicenter in Ashburn to south of Manassas. To do so, it plans to beef up the grid with hundreds of miles of new high-power lines atop 100-foot towers, significant portions of which will cross Fauquier and Prince William counties. “Not all these will be approved,” Chris Miller, president of the PEC, told the audience. “But it’s not appropriate to wait, because decisions are starting to be made now about what may be true for the next 30 to 40 years.” PJM has indicated that it is sensitive to resistance from residents and organized groups, Miller said, and he argued it is better to object to the transmission lines early before they get the green light. The power-line opponents have already enlisted elected officials in the cause. On Monday, Oct. 23, state Del. Mike Webert (R), whose 18th District includes much of Fauquier County, wrote a letter to PJM to “strongly oppose” the routes under consideration. “They will have a long-term, adverse effect on the designated corridors and surrounding areas across my district,” he wrote. A week earlier, on Oct. 13, the Fauquier Board of Supervisors also sent a letter of opposition to PJM. That letter asked PJM to “reconsider” its proposed routes through county land and to look at “alternative options.” At a board meeting on Oct. 12, some supervisors used even stronger language while addressing the power lines. “If we care about what we love and live for in Fauquier County, we have got to stand firm on this issue and fight this with everything we have,” said Supervisor Rick Gerhardt (R), whose Cedar Run District would be traversed by some of the lines. “And unfortunately, our landscape is going to be scarred by this if we let it happen.” Still, what’s going to happen at this point is unclear. A PJM committee is still reviewing several options. The PJM Board is expected to make a decision on its preferred routes in December. Then, its list will be re-

Back in March 2022, PJM solicited proposals and bids for transmission projects to deal with an expected increase in demand of 7,500 megawatts in data center alley by 2028. Wide-ranging proposals came in from 10 companies that build power projects for 72 proposed projects. Some came from power companies, like Dominion Energy, which served the region, but other proposals came from transmission construction companies based outside of Virginia. By Oct. 3, PJM had picked parts of the 72 projects and created a short list of what it wanted to do. That list was based on such things as cost, buildability, time schedule, and, apparently, even potential local resistance. The short-listed project components were contained in a 123-page document, but the descriptions and maps are not specific. They do show 500-kilovolt lines coming into data center alley from as far away as New Jersey and West Virginia, and a 765-kilovolt line from south-central Virginia to a new substation south of Vint Hill in Fauquier County. PEC’s land use director Julie Bolthouse and Karen Sheehan, director of

the Coalition to Protect Prince William County, asked PJM for more information, and PJM sent them tables of data showing which parts of the proposals it wants to short-list. Of those, it seems the project that would most affect Fauquier and Prince William residents would be a new 500-kilovolt line running in the current power line corridor from Morrisville through Vint Hill all the way to Brambleton in Loudoun County. (The tables also show a web of multiple new high-power lines to be built around Ashburn in Loudoun County.) The map that PEC unveiled on Monday, Oct. 23 showed these routes with more specificity, but it also depicted many other routes— PEC prefers to call them “paths” because they are not exact—contained in the original 72 proposals. PEC acknowledged that not all those lines will immediately be constructed. At the Oct. 23 meeting, Bolthouse said she guessed that PJM would only select one of the handful of routes that PEC’s map depicts crossing Fauquier County. For instance, a potential route that goes from Amissville in Culpeper County northeast all the way to Brambleton west of Dulles International Airport is not in the current short list. Bolthouse said in an earlier interview, “It would be insane to try to do that one because

you’re going across everything. I mean, like all sorts of resource historic districts, easements, scenic Goose Creek, everything.” That route has nearby residents worried. “It would destroy everything,” said Hans Wachmeister, who owns Belmont Hill farm on Blantyre Road. “Our views are incredible.” Another route mapped but not on the current short list starts near Front Royal and then runs along U.S. 50 through Upperville, Middleburg and Aldie before cutting over to data center alley. Transmission lines along Route 50 have faced opposition before, she said. She said PJM officials had told her and others that “due to historical opposition that they faced, these routes are their least preferred of the shortlist that they have.” (Sheehan said it is not in this scenario.) Still, both Bolthouse and Sheehan said even if PJM is not pursuing these routes as part of its 2028 solutions, they are solutions they could pursue in the future. Sheehan noted that PJM solicits bids for transmission projects three times a year and will continue to do so long into the future—especially as data center hunger for energy continues to grow. Two other lines that would serve Warrenton are depicted on PEC’s map. One runs from the Wheeler substation at Vint Hill to the Warrenton substation on Old Auburn Road, and the other is a more southern route to the same substation that starts near Manassas. The Wheeler route, at least, has met enormous resistance from residents. The Fauquier County supervisors noted in their letter to PJM that the Wheeler route had been rejected by Dominion last year as a means to power an Amazon data center in Warrenton. One route that seems more likely is a long, U-shaped 500-kilovolt line that runs from Front Royal southeast through Remington to Morrisville, and from there north through Vint Hill and Gainesville and ending near Brambleton in Loudoun County. Segments of that line showed up in many of the 72 proposals. Bolthouse, however, said that line had been moved out of the PJM project shortlist and put on a list of Dominion future projects. That project would not require new right-of-way—it would be done by replacing old towers and building new ones to carry new lines. In Prince William, Sheehan says she is most concerned about the new or re-built 500-kilovolt line that is proposed to go from Morrisville to Loudoun County. “The Brentsville and Gainesville districts are just in the bullseye with these 500-kilovolt lines that run from Morrisville up through Gainesville,” Sheehan said. “And that’s, and that’s what’s really concerning me is they’re just running a spiderweb all over the state of Virginia,” she said. “Because nobody’s consenting to this. And we’re all going to end up paying for it.” Reach Peter Cary at news@fauquier.com

About 60 people gathered at Stonewall Golf Club in Gainesville over the weekend to sing, pray, light candles and show their solidarity with the people of Israel. The event, held Sunday, Oct. 22, was organized by Rabbi Shmuly Perlstein of the Chabad for Jewish Life, based in Virginia Oaks, and included fellow Northern Virginia Jewish leaders such as Rabbi Lizz Goldstein of the Congregation Ner

Slow progress on housing frustrates board HOUSING, from page 1 At one point, the county was steadily adding new housing and reached an annual high of 7,000 new units in 2005. But that changed during the Great Recession, when the annual number of new housing units plunged below 3,000. Since then, the number has stayed well under 3,000, falling short of demand. In 2023, the county issued only about 1,000 occupancy permits for new homes, according to statistics shared with the supervisors during the Oct. 17 work session. And while the county wants to add more units, the supervisors are hoping to incentivize developers to set aside some of them for affordable housing. But the county can’t do so without an affordable dwelling ordinance, which supervisors are hoping to pass by the end of the year. Some supervisors expressed frustrations during the meeting about the lack of affordable housing prog-

ress over the last few years. “We are not nearly as close as we should be after three years,” said Supervisor Margaret Franklin, D-Woodbridge. “I expected to have an ordinance by the end of this term.” An affordable dwelling ordinance allows a locality to more easily boost affordable housing units and make decisions surrounding it. Under the ordinance, supervisors could offer incentives to encourage real estate developers to build affordable housing within the county. Hugh said the county’s planning staff is working on a draft on an affordable housing ordinance that would allow the county to offer developers incentives to set aside up to 35% of units in a new development that would qualify as affordable for certain income groups. To be considered “affordable,” the monthly rent or mortgage payment—as well as utility costs— must not exceed 30% of the renters’ or homeowners’ monthly income. The ordinance has to go through a series of steps before it is presented to the supervisors for a vote. If it is adopted in December, Hugh said the next steps would begin in early 2024 and would include rewriting the zoning code to incor-

porate the provisions of the affordable housing ordinance. The supervisors also plan to create a “housing trust fund” that would be used to help provide more housing opportunities for residents. The county already has $2.5 million in a housing proffers—money given by developers toward affordable housing—in the planning office, said David McGettigan, the county’s acting planning director. “That’s not chump change,” said Chair Ann Wheeler, D-At-Large. No plans have been announced yet for how the affordable housing

proffer money will be used. In the meantime, the county does provide housing help through the Housing Choice Voucher Program and a firsttime homebuyers’ program. Both are funded by the state and federal governments. Still, supervisors said the need is far from being met. “Once a week, I get a housing phone call,” Franklin said. “This is something we have to figure out what our options are by the end of the year.” Reach Shannon Clark at sclark@ fauquier.com.

For more than a decade, the county has been in a “housing shortfall” as evidenced by the inability to add at least 3,000 new housing units a year since about 2010.

The Company asserts that the CE-4 Projects are needed to comply with the VCEA and to serve customers’ capacity and energy needs. According to the Company, the total estimated costs for the CE-4 Projects are approximately $855.6 million, excluding financing costs, or approximately $2,562 per kilowatt (“kW”) at the total 334 MW (nominal AC) rating. During its 2020 Session, the Virginia General Assembly enacted Chapters 1193 (HB 1526) and 1194 (SB 851) of the 2020 Virginia Acts of Assembly. These duplicate Acts of Assembly, known as Rider CE the Virginia Clean Economy Act (“VCEA”), became effective on July 1, 2020.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Why are supervisors rushing to vote on 44 more data centers? Regarding the Oct. 19 article “Some candidates stay mum on data centers,” isn’t it interesting that Supervisors Ann Wheeler, Kenny Boddye, Margaret Franklin, Andrea Bailey and Victor Angry “voted” as a block to not respond to the survey? It’s incredulous that not ONE of them thought it was important to respond, given that Devlin Tech Park and QTS/Compass in the Digital Gateway are two of the most contentious and controversial projects in the history of Prince William County. Is it because they did not want to rile up residents before the

Nov 7 election but don’t care how it all looks after the election? Where’s the transparency? These are the same five supervisors who pressed for placing both of these projects on their agenda before the end of this board’s term—even though it is common knowledge that the county’s planning office is depleted, overworked and overwhelmed. It’s obvious this is a race. If these 44 data centers are a good idea now, they will still be a good idea next year, What’s the rush? ALLY STOEGER Gainesville

PW Digital gateway would help stabilize the local economy With inflation so high and the economy so uncertain, let’s welcome the Prince William Digital Gateway to help stabilize our economy in such rough seas. Some may argue that inflation is slowing, but the huge inflation of the last few years is cumulative and picking up groceries can be dramatically more expensive than it was in 2021. With interest rates also skyrocketing, we need to offset all of this

negative momentum with some positive momentum, like bringing in new businesses to Prince William County. Our goal should not be to just hold on, but to get our economy going and growing. The Prince William Digital Gateway can help do that and is a much-needed project.

‘People are standing with them’ SOLIDARITY, from page 7 “We are blessed in Prince William County to have you as our residents,” Lawson said. “And I know I speak for the rest of our board when I say that we condemn the acts of Hamas. We fully condemn them.” “My heart aches for the people of Israel, and my heart also aches for my Jewish friends,” she added. “And I want you to know that we will do everything within our power to stop any signs of antisemitism in our community. We will not tolerate it.” Perlstein said the purpose of the event was to bring members of the community together—both Jewish and not—in a show of unity with the Jewish people and with each other amid the ongoing hostage crisis and attacks at the border of Israel and the Gaza strip.

Republicans want a 15-week limit on abortion—not a ban Across Virginia, abortion organizations and Democrat candidates are spreading fearmongering about pro-life candidates. Their ads are designed to create anxiety, deliberately misleading the public about what pro-life Republicans hope to accomplish if they gain control of the General Assembly. Pro-abortion candidates are willing to lie to the voters of Virginia. On many Democrat candidates’ websites, you’d think that the only thing they have to offer voters is their unrelenting commitment to make abortion legal for any reason throughout pregnancy up to birth! Pro-life candidates aren’t calling for a ban on abortion in Virginia. They are backing the governor’s bill preventing abortions after unborn babies can feel pain at 15 weeks. They want to pass rational bills that will provide information to women

before an abortion that can help them make better life-affirming decisions for themselves and their babies. No Republican wants to criminalize women who seek an abortion or obstruct access to lifesaving medical care. Pro-abortion organizations backing pro-abortion candidates will clearly say anything to create hysteria—because telling the truth doesn’t push their radical agenda forward. Voters need to reject this nonsense. Abortion is a life-changing issue and must not be treated as a political game. Women deserve more respect than abortion promoters clearly have for them. What these groups are really worried about is no longer getting legal cover for abortion businesses from their friends in the General Assembly. Don’t be fooled; vote. OLIVIA TURNER Fairfax

Why Republicans can get behind absentee voting You paint the picture that Republicans, like lemmings, are following (Gov. Glenn) Youngkin over the cliff in light of Republican voters’ previous concerns over absentee ballots. While I can safely say Republicans do not trust the changes implemented by the Democrats in the name of COVID, we still suffer through with early voting, precincts open for no apparent reason, thanks to the Democrats in Virginia Senate. However, I do encourage voters to sign up for permanent absentee status until we can change the law. The reason is that for this election absentee voters must put their last four numbers of their Social Security numbers on the ballot envelope

of all ages—from children to the elderly—remain held hostage by Hamas. So far, only four have been released in recent days, including two Americans from Chicago. At the end of the service, pictures of the hostages along with their ages and names, flashed on a screen at the front of the room. “Unfortunately, in times like this, people with negative voices know how to speak up. And people who really just want to be (supportive) don’t know how to respond,” Perlstein said. “And, in our community, we were just feeling the silence of people not saying anything. I very much wanted to give people an opportunity to come out and to see the solidarity and know that they’re not alone and that people are standing with them, and that we have that support within our county.” During the service, Perlstein encouraged participants to commit to doing “mitvahs,” or acts of kindness and empathy, in honor and in remem-

and their birth year. In the primary election this year, absentee ballots were sent in with two signatures, the voter’s and a witness. There was no effort or capability to verify these and in essence it was a blank check, so that’s an improvement. Additionally, voters can sign up for BallotTrax and follow its ballot from the printer to the scanner. All of this does not illuminate the potential for fraud, but it reduces it in my opinion. It is telling that Democrats and the media are howling about Republicans leveraging the absentee ballot system. JEFF FULLER Gainesville

One unfortunate missed extra point In clash of region football powers, Patriot falls to undefeated Mountain View, 14-13 By Jack Parry

Special to the Times

While it wasn’t the middle of November, it sure felt like a playoff football game on Friday night at Patriot High School, with a full crowd rocking as the two-loss Pioneers took on the undefeated Mountain View Wildcats in Nokesville. Hosting the No. 1 team in Class 6 Region B, Patriot limited the visitors from Stafford County to seven first half points but fell 14-13 due to miscues on offense and special teams. Patriot fumbled three times, had a snap go between the punter’s legs and kicker Luke Brixus missed an extra point after the Pioneers’ second touchdown. Each miscue factored in as Mountain View remained undefeated at 8-0 and Patriot slipped to 5-3. “We didn’t lose that game because of a missed PAT. Way too many turnovers, not taking advantage of opportunities, that’s why we lost that football game,” said Patriot coach Sean Finnerty, whose squad sits sixth in the current power points standings behind Mountain View (8-0, 34.5 points), Freedom-Woodbridge (7-0, 33.71), Battlefield (8-0, 32.0), Colonial Forge (8-1, 31.33) and Gainesville (6-2, 21.82). The Pioneers have 27.25 points with Gar-Field (4-4, 25.75) and Forest Park (4-4, 25.0) next. Despite Patriot’s mistakes, the game was a tossup. The visiting Wildcats, who were 11-2 last year, never looked dominant, and were contained by Patriot’s defense until the game-winning drive. Mountain View running backs Torie Martin and Jamil Ramsuer rushed for a combined 138 yards on the ground. Quarterback Aaron Barber completed 8-of-22 for 122 yards and an interception. While he couldn’t find the mark early, Barber completed three straight passes in a crucial drive that ended with a 26-yard pass to Pierre Harris for the winning points with 5:01 left, with Connor Bugni adding the decisive extra point kick. “It was a tough night all the way around, nothing came easy. We had too many foolish penalties again. But our guys hung in, and found a way to win,” said Mountain View coach Lou Sorrentino. Harris didn’t have a single catch before the final series, but racked up 72 yards on the game-winning touchdown drive. He got behind the Patriot defense up the left side for the clutch TD. “My teammates, they trusted me. Coach finally called my number, and I stepped up to the challenge,” Harris said.

“I scheduled tough for a reason,” said Patriot coach Sean Finnerty, whose Pioneers gave Class 6 Region B leading Mountain View a battle before falling 14-13. The game started out sloppy on both sides, with Patriot’s two fumbles being matched by two failed fourth down conversions on incompletions by Barber. After a third straight drive ended in a fourth down incompletion for Mountain View, Patriot immediately struck first as wide receiver Colton Kershaw took a slant pass from quarterback Tyler Knutson 74 yards to the house to give the home team a 7-0 lead with 17 seconds to go in the first quarter. The Wildcats found inspiration after the score, using their run game to drive downfield to score on Martin’s 24-yard TD run to make it 7-7 in the middle of the second quarter following a Bugni’s extra point kick. Patriot tried to close out the half with a score, rushing the ball aggressively with running back Jackson McCarter. But the turnover bug again stymied Patriot as McCarter got a pitch from Knutson and tried to throw deep with his pass easily picked by Etienne Samuah to bring the drive, and the half, to an end. “You can’t win that type of football game against a team like that with that many turnovers,” said coach Finnerty.

Five-foot-11, 190-pound junior Jackson McCarter leads Prince William County in rushing with 1,305 yards in eight games according to stats compiled by Inside Nova. Patriot used an intereption by Aiden Pagonis on the second play of the third quarter to take the lead. After Pagonis’ return to the Mountain View 31-yard line, the Pioneers rammed the ball into the end zone, using McCarter’s 1-yard TD run to lead 13-7 with 8:05 left in the third quarter after the missed extra point. McCarter finished with 84 yards on 24 carries. For the rest of the third quarter, neither team found its footing, struggling to establish possession. With the ball and the lead with 10:41 remaining in the fourth quarter, Patriot made a drive to try to tack onto its lead. After a big gain McCarter got leveled by a defender and lost the football, the team’s third lost fumble of the game. Although Mountain View drove 74 yards to score for a 14-13 lead

with 5:01 left, Patriot still had time to win, but struggled to throw the ball. Knutson threw four straight incompletions on the final drive and finished 6-of-15 for 117 yards. “I scheduled tough for a reason, because I knew I had a really young football team and I wanted to be battle tested,” said Finnerty. “I knew we were good enough to beat that football team tonight.” With both teams being playoff bound, Finnerty kept it coy on a possible postseason rematch. “We’ll see how things play out. Who knows with seeding nowadays,” he said. Patriot has two tough road games left. They visit Gar-Field (4-4) Friday and close with their traditional year-end foe Battlefield (8-0) on Nov. 3 in Haymarket.

BRENTSVILLE CHEER SQUAD REPEATS AS DISTRICT CHAMPS The defending Class 3 state champion Brentsville District High competition cheer team won the Class 3 Northwestern District meet last Wednesday at Fauquier High, scoring 253.75 points, followed by Fauquier (234), Kettle Run (219.5), Warren County (192), Meridian (150.5) and Skyline (145.75). Next up is Saturday’s Region B meet at Brentsville, with the top two advancing to the Class 3 state meet Nov. 4 at Richmond’s Siegel Center. “Brentsville is a powerhouse. They’re amazing,” said Fauquier coach Delorez “D.J.” Christian after the meet. PHOTO BY DOUG STROUD

Homeowners’ insurance can be complicated. Know what your policy covers.

What is homeowners’ insurance and what does it cover? By Carmen Rivera

State Farm Warrenton

After investing in your home, it’s important to have it insured properly. What are all the policy coverages, forms and exclusions?

What is homeowners insurance?

Homeowners insurance is a type of insurance that will provide coverage for your home and other personal property in the case of a covered loss. It can also provide liability coverage if someone hurts themselves at your home or you cause property damage. Homeowners insurance is not only desired, but in many cases, required by your mortgage company so they will also be protected financially if your home experiences a covered loss.

Why homeowners insurance?

A home is the single biggest investment most individuals will ever make.

It is typically the largest asset on the family “balance sheet.” Also, the contents of a typical home, in the form of furniture, appliances, clothing, family heirlooms and other movable personal belongings, represent a substantial additional investment. The unprotected loss (or partial loss) of a home and its contents to theft, fire, windstorm or some other disaster, could be financially devastating. Further, everyone faces the risk of personal liability. For example, a visitor to the residence could slip and fall. Such accidents can result in court decisions awarding large sums to the injured party for medical expenses and pain and suffering.

Homeowners insurance coverage

Originally, a standard homeowners policy covered only the risk of fire. Today’s homeowners policies

We are pledged to the letter and spirit of Virginia’s policy for the achievement of equal housing opportunity throughout the Commonwealth. We encourage and support advertising and marketing programs in which there are no barriers to obtaining housing because of race, color, religion, sex, handicap, age, familial status, or national origin. All real estate advertised herein is subject to the Virginia and federal fair housing laws, which make it illegal to advertise “any preference, limitation, or discrimination because of race, color, religion, sex, handicap, familial status, national origin, or elderliness, or intention to make any such preference, limitation, or discrimination.” This newspaper will not knowingly accept any advertising for real estate which is in violation of the law. Our readers are hereby informed that all dwellings advertised are available on an equal opportunity basis. For more information or to file a housing complaint, call the Virginia Fair Housing office at 804-367-8530 or toll-free at 888-551-3247. For the hearing impaired, call 804-367-9753. EMAIL: fairhousing@dpor.virginia.gov WEBSITE: dpor.virginia.gov/fairhousing

provide protection against a number of the perils of modern life, in one “package” policy. A typical homeowners policy can provide insurance protection for the following: • Home: The physical dwelling structure and other structures attached to it. • Other structures: For example, a detached garage, pool house, guesthouse, green house or tool shed on the residence property. • Personal property: This covers the contents of the home, such as furniture, appliances or clothing. Certain types of property may have specific dollar limits. • Loss of use or additional living expense: If a home is damaged by a covered peril, loss-of-use coverage helps meet the costs of hotel bills, apartment or rental home, eating out and other living expenses if the home is uninhabitable from a covered loss. This policy section may also reimburse a homeowner for lost income if a room in the home were rented out. This is sometimes insured on an actual-loss-sustained basis. • Personal liability: Provides protection against legal liability for bodily injury or property damage if a third party is accidentally injured or their property is damaged. • Medical payments: Also known as guest-medical payments, this section provides limited coverage if a third party is accidentally injured and needs medical treatment.

Homeowners insurance policy forms

There are several organizations that work with insurance companies

to develop standardized homeowners policies. While the details of a particular policy can vary, these standardized policies or forms are generally very similar. • Broad form policy (HO-02): This policy covers the home, other structures and personal property on a named-peril basis. Only the perils listed are covered. • Special form policy (HO-03): Coverage for the home and other structures is written on an all-risk basis—damage from any peril is covered, unless specifically excluded. Coverage for personal property is provided on a named-peril basis. • Comprehensive form (HO-05): This policy covers the home, other structures and personal property on an all-risk basis—damage from any peril is covered, unless specifically excluded. This form is typically used for more expensive homes. • Modified form coverage (HO08): This policy form is generally used with homes where the cost to re-build exceeds the market value of the property. Protection is provided on a named-perils basis. Payment is generally limited to actual cash value.

What does homeowners insurance not cover?

The standard homeowners policies specifically exclude a number of perils from coverage. Policy coverage for these excluded perils can generally be added through an endorsement and payment of an additional premium. Typical policy exclusions might include the following: See INSURANCE, page 15

PIEDMONT HOME CONNECTION/OBITUARIES 15

Prince William Times | www.princewilliamtimes.com | October 26, 2023

INSURANCE, from page 14 • Ordinance or law: Many homeowners policies do not cover losses or have limitations, due to a law or ordinance of the community in which the home is located. For example, if a home is damaged or destroyed, changes in building codes could result in additional uncovered expenses when the home is repaired or rebuilt. Ordinance or law coverage is included in some package policies often as a percentage of the dwelling coverage (10%, 25%, 50%, etc.). This coverage is required in some states. • Earth movement: Excludes loss caused by events such as earthquake, volcanic eruption, mudslide or landslide. • Water damage: Refers to damage from water that backs up from sewers or drains, water seeping through walls below ground or wave action. Many policies contain dollar limits for water damage due to such things as a broken pipe. • Flood damage: Refers to damage from rising water or surface water. • Mold exclusion: Many insurance companies exclude coverage for mold damage. • Other exclusions: Other specific exclusions include war, nuclear hazard, neglect and intentional loss.

Other homeowners insurance considerations

• Replacement cost condition: Dwelling and other structures: If a home is damaged or totally destroyed, a homeowners policy will generally pay (within policy limits) to rebuild or repair on an “actual-cash-value” basis. In simple terms, actual cash value means replacement cost less a deduction for depreciation or for wear and tear. Reimbursement on this basis could leave a homeowner short of the total funds needed to restore the home. Through an endorsement and payment of an additional premium, reimbursement can be on a “replacement-cost” basis. Replacement cost means, simply, restoring the home to its pre-loss condition using materials and workmanship of similar quality. In some policies, the availability of this feature requires the homeowner to maintain coverage on the home equal to at least 80% of the cost to rebuild or repair. If insurance coverage were not maintained at the 80% level, any loss would be reimbursed at a lesser amount or on an actual-cash-value or depreciated basis. • Replacement cost: Personal property (contents): Coverage is normally on an actual-cash-value basis. For an additional premium, the policy can usually be endorsed to protect covered personal property on a replacement-cost basis (the cost to buy the item new today). Depreciation is considered until the item is actually replaced. • Inflation guard rider: The standard policy forms can usually be

endorsed to provide for automatic, periodic increases in policy limits. These increases in policy coverage generally apply to both the dwelling and contents and help avoid being underinsured due to inflation. Such an endorsement also helps meet the 80%-of-replacement-cost condition to qualify for replacement cost on the home.

OBITUARIE S OBITUARIE S Understanding insurance policies

An insurance policy is a written contract between the insured and the insurance company. The protection provided by the policy typically represents a significant part of an individual’s overall risk management program. Thus, it’s important for an insured individual to read and understand key policy provisions such as the following. • What perils are covered in the policy? It depends on the policy. A basic policy may not provide as much protection as you would need. • What perils are not covered? For an additional premium, perils or situations not covered can often be added to a policy. • What are the limits of coverage? This refers to the maximum dollar amount the insurance company will pay in the event of a covered loss. • What are the deductible amounts? A deductible is a dollar amount or percentage the insured must pay before the insurance company pays its portion of the loss. • In the event of a loss, what are the duties of the insured? A policy will usually list the steps that must be taken in the event of a loss.

Seek guidance

Insurance agents and brokers, insurance counselors and other trained financial consultants can help provide answers to detailed questions about a particular policy. These individuals can help you select the right policy and the appropriate amount of coverage. Many mortgage lenders require homeowners insurance, to protect the dwelling, as a condition of granting the mortgage. The specific coverage and terms of a policy can vary from company to company and from state to state. Jewelry, silverware, securities, cash and collectibles are examples of personal property subject to these “internal” policy limits.
