Development, taxes divide candidates
County chair hopefuls target data centers, each other, during sole debate By Shannon Clark Times Staff Writer
No matter who wins the race for chair of the Prince William Board of Supervisors, the county’s growing data center industry could be the loser, as both Deshundra Jefferson and Jeanine Lawson pledged during their first and only debate Oct. 26 to raise data center tax rates and halt any new data center rezonings if elected on Nov. 7. Lawson, 54, the Republican nominee, and Jefferson, 47, the Democratic nominee, both also said they

would do whatever possible to stop the controversial Prince William Digital Gateway from coming to fruition even if the current board approves the project in December. The plan proposes up to 34 data centers on 2,100 acres next to Manassas National Battlefield Park. Lawson went a step further and said she would restore the former “rural crescent” by reinstating development restrictions lifted by the current board late last year. Lawson also said she would repeal the county’s 4% meals tax and voiced her opposition to collective bargaining for county staff and first responders. See CANDIDATES, page 2
County planners urge denial of Digital Gateway By Peter Cary and Jill Palermo Piedmont Journalism Foundation, Times Staff Writer
Prince William voters will elect seven members of the Virginia House of Delegates on Nov. 7, but only two races are deemed “competitive.” Both contests are in newly drawn districts on the western end of the county and are among 10 across the commonwealth that will likely decide the partisan lean of the state House, which now has a 48-46 Republican majority with six vacancies.”
Citing a lack of information and numerous unanswered questions, Prince William County’s professional planning staff is recommending denial on the Prince William Digital Gateway—one of the largest and most controversial commercial projects to come before the board of supervisors in decades. The PW Digital Gateway is a plan to transform 2,100 acres of homes and small farms adjacent to the Manassas National Battlefield Park into a new corridor of up to 34 large data centers. First proposed in July 2021, the plan was hatched by 102 property owners along Pageland Lane who banded together to sell their collective 1,800 acres to two data center developers—QTS and Compass Datacenters—for what was proposed to be one of the largest data center corridors in the world. The effort was led by Pageland Lane resident Mary Ann Ghadban, a commercial real estate developer who owns a 55-acre farm in the PW Digital Gateway corridor. Ghadban and her neighbors contend that worsening traffic along Pageland Lane and high-voltage power lines have spoiled the rural character of their properties.

Development, taxes divide candidates
CANDIDATES, from page 1
Jefferson called the rural crescent “a gem” but stopped short of saying she would restore former restrictions on public sewer lines. Jefferson also expressed concern about the meals tax but said she would not repeal it without replacing the tax revenue it generates for local schools and county services. Jefferson also voiced her full support for collective bargaining. The candidates also took aim at each other for not doing enough to protect the county from rampant data center development. Lawson tried to tie Jefferson to the current board’s Democratic majority, which has been supportive of controversial data center rezonings, while Jefferson blamed Lawson for voting to approve data centers “for years.” The debate, held just 11 days before the Nov. 7 election, was sponsored by the Prince William Chamber of Commerce and was moderated by Julie Carey, of NBC channel 4; Bruce Potter, publisher of Inside Nova; and Jill Palermo, managing editor of the Prince William Times and Fauquier Times. During the 90-minute discussion, Jefferson and Lawson also talked about what they would do to combat rising local crime and address a lack of affordable housing. The two also shared their views on a possible Washington Commanders stadium in Prince William County as well as a proposal to build a county-funded $120 million indoor track and recreation center along the Interstate 95 corridor. Jefferson, a Montclair resident and Chicago-area native with a background in broadcast journalism and political communications, spoke about affordable housing, fully funding schools and balancing land development with protecting the environment during her opening statement. “We need sensible, yet bold leadership to move us forward,” Jefferson said. “Experience only matters when it yields positive results. We need a fresh perspective and somebody who is capable of building a bridge in order to move us forward.” Lawson, an Iowa native who was elected Brentsville District supervisor in 2014, spoke against over-development, rising taxes and crime running “amok” over the last four years in her opening statement. “(The current board has) told the citizens of this county to shut up and sit down,” Lawson said. “Under Chair Jeanine Lawson, we’re going to restore power back to the people, and it’s going to start January 1 when I’m elected chair.”
On data center tax rates
Lawson said that if she’s elected she would like to raise the county tax rate on data centers from $2.15 per $100 assessed value to closer to Loudoun County’s rate of $4.15. But Lawson noted she would not want the county’s personal or business property rate to exceed the car tax rate of $3.70. “There’s a lot of detail to (raising the tax rate) that you have to be care-

ful,” Lawson said. “Another thing I’ve recently learned is that if data centers are hosting servers for the federal government ... we cannot necessarily tax federal property. That’s revenue that we are leaving on the table.” Jefferson said she would also raise the data center tax rate and would work with the board and the data center industry to do so. “We can do better for residents of Prince William County, it’s just that we have to have leadership that desires to do so,” Jefferson said. “The data centers want to be here, but we don’t have to have them here.”
On the 4% meals tax
Regarding the 4% meals tax, which raised more than $30 million for county schools and services last year, Jefferson said she would like to “phase it out or reduce it completely,” depending on how the county can make up for the revenue. Jefferson noted that both local schools and county services “are counting on that money.” “I am really concerned about that tax because it is hurting small businesses,” Jefferson said. Lawson said she would repeal the tax within “the next budget cycle” next year, noting the tax has hurt many small businesses. “I’ve gone down to family-owned businesses in eastern Prince William and heard firsthand stories of people who either have to pay their meals tax on the 20th of every month or figure out how to make payroll,” Lawson said.
On building an indoor sports complex
Regarding a proposal for the county to spend about $120 million on a new indoor sports complex, Lawson said that while she “likes the idea of a sports center, budgets are about priorities.” Lawson said she needs more details about the project before deciding whether to support it. “I think there needs to be future conversations about it,” Lawson said. “I absolutely think that sports tourism could be a great benefit to this county but it has to be right for everybody.” Jefferson said she would need to know whether the complex would be self-sufficient and generate revenue and said that while the complex could be a great feature to have along the I-95 corridor, the county has greater needs. “We need new schools. ... We need to expand and revitalize. We’ve
got to invest in public safety,” Jefferson said. “Those are two of my biggest things that I’m going to commit you to before I can say anything on the indoor sports facility.”
On a Washington Commanders stadium in Prince William
Asked to rank their level of enthusiasm for encouraging the Washington Commanders to build a new stadium in Prince William County on a scale from one to 10, Lawson said she is a “one.” “I do have to be careful about answering this question because the county is under a (non-disclosure agreement) and it applies to me,” Lawson said. “But I’m definitely a ‘Debbie Downer’ in closed session” discussions on the stadium, Lawson said. Jefferson ranked her level of enthusiasm about a stadium at “seven” but said she would not support any public incentives to encourage the Commanders to pick Prince William. “If they come, they come,” Jefferson said. “I will certainly work with the General Assembly. I will certainly market Prince William County, but I am not going to give public funds to millionaires or billionaires.”
On combating youth crime, gun violence
Regarding potential ways to prevent youth from becoming involved in illicit drugs and crime, Jefferson said she would like to work with the school board to train personnel who can recognize the signs of at-risk youth and offer more after school and summer programs to keep them on the right track. Jefferson also said she would like
to give public servants “a seat at the negotiating table,” to provide an opportunity for conservations around adequate pay and working hours. “I have lost family to gun violence,” Jefferson said. “One of the best things we can offer for our young people is opportunity. That’s why we need initiatives (such as) a summer jobs program.” Lawson said the county needs to address rising crime by hiring more police officers and ending “soft on crime policies.” She also said the county should partner with the school division, churches and nonprofits to prevent youth crime and gun violence. “We need to hire more police officers,” Lawson said. “We have a shortage, and they are working mandatory overtime. They’re stretched too thin in their shifts. They don’t have time to go into what we call community policing, community engagement to go to the schools to build those relationships with trust.”
On the proposed Va. Route 28 bypass
Both candidates expressed their opposition to the proposed Va. 28 bypass, a project that has been under consideration by the county board for about five years. The project would extend Godwin Drive beyond Sudley Road for about three and a half miles to create a new road aimed at easing trips between western Prince William and Fairfax County. The supervisors recently approved spending another $1 million to study the project. Lawson said she does not agree with the bypass due to its potential disruption of homes and environmental impacts. “This bypass will take about 70 lower-income homes,” Lawson said. “It disrupts a lot of families. ... It will be an environmental disaster.” Jefferson said she also does not agree with the bypass and said that transportation projects should be looked at from the perspective of “how do we move people around” not just “moving cars around.” “It’s a zombie project that we keep giving more funding to, when, in reality, it may not be what’s needed for that area,” Jefferson said. “I’m very deeply concerned about losing homes.” Reach Shannon Clark at sclark@ fauquier.com.

County candidates split along party lines on indoor track, meals tax By Shannon Clark Times Staff Writer
Democratic and Republican candidates for the Prince William Board of County Supervisors are expressing opposite views on two late-breaking issues in the final days before the Nov. 7 election: whether to support a proposed $120 million indoor track facility and whether to keep or repeal the county’s 4% meals tax. While most Democratic candidates say they support or are open to building a county-funded indoor track and recreation facility, Republican candidates say they either don’t have enough information or oppose the idea altogether. On the county’s relatively new 4% meals tax, most Republicans candidates say they want to repeal it, while Democratic candidates are mixed. The board currently has a 5-3 Democratic majority.
On the indoor sports complex
An indoor sports complex featuring pickleball courts, a pool, a hydraulic running track and multiple hard-surface courts could be coming to Prince William County as soon as 2025 if supervisors vote to move forward with the project next year. In October, supervisors held a public hearing and heard from coaches, students and residents who support it.
Democratic candidates
Of the seven Democratic candidates who responded to the survey, two say they’re not sure about the indoor recreation center and five support it. Deshundra Jefferson, the Democratic nominee for at-large chair, and Jim Gehlsen, the Democratic nominee in the Brentsville District, say they’re undecided. Jefferson said she would prioritize new schools and would need to know if the facility would pay for itself, while Gehlsen supports raising data center taxes to help pay for it. Incumbent Supervisors Victor Angry (Neabsco), Andrea Bailey (Potomac), Margaret Franklin (Woodbridge) and Kenny Boddye (Occoquan) say they support the idea, as does Idris O’Connor, the Democratic nominee in the Coles District. “We are the prime area along the I-95 corridor that is perfectly situated to draw a population between Virginia Beach and upstate New York for a state-of-the-art facility such as this,” Angry said. Franklin said the facility would be a “regional entity that can not only produce revenue from major sporting events and competitions but also to help Prince William further become a regional leader in economic development.” Bailey said the facility would help to increase the county’s commercial tax base but said a “specific price tag” should not be attached yet to the project until the supervisors have looked at all resources to make the project a reality. Boddye said if the facility has the right “location, specifications and programming,” it would “benefit Prince William County residents of all ages, support our families, and grow our local economy.” Boddye said it could also double as a venue for “conferences and corporate

Republican candidates
Most Republican candidates, including their nominee for county board chair, Supervisor Jeanine Lawson, said they need more information on the indoor recreation facility before stating a position. There are “too many unknowns at this time, especially the financial implications of a $100-plus million project,” Lawson said, expressing concern that the facility would not be self-sustaining. Similar concerns were expressed by Brentsville District Republican nominee Tom Gordy as well as incumbent Supervisor Yesli Vega (Coles). Karla Justice, the GOP nominee in the Occoquan District, said she supports the project but is concerned about how the county would pay for it. “I strongly believe that the Occoquan District and county families need more space to safely participate in recreational activities, exercise, play and spend time together,” Justice said. “I feel that this facility would provide a safe venue for those types of activities and would serve as a net positive for our community. The current board is quoting the number $100 million, however, I believe that number to be short as it does not account for several aspects of what would be needed to complete the project in full.” Three Republican candidates are outright no’s on the facility, including Supervisor Bob Weir, who is running unopposed in the Gainesville District, as well as Verndell Robinson, the GOP nominee in the Potomac District, and Jeannie LaCroix, the Republican nominee in the Woodbridge District. LaCroix said supervisors need to address “needs of their constituents” first and then, “if appropriate, spend taxpayer’s money on additional projects later.”
Meals tax
Since July 2022, a 4% meals tax has been added to the cost of all prepared foods and beverages. The tax was adopted as a means of generating revenue. In fiscal year 2023, the tax raised about $30 million, which was roughly split between the school division and county services.
source of revenue. Jefferson said she would like to “phase it out or reduce it completely” depending on how the county can make up for the revenue, since both schools and county services are “counting on that money.” Both Gehlsen and O’Connor said data centers should be taxed more to reduce the meals tax and make up for the lost revenue. Boddye said that he supported the initial implementation of the tax due to the county’s need to diversify its tax base instead of “relying predominantly on residential real estate taxes.” Boddye said that schools and other county services need a “meals tax without signs of harming restaurants” and that he is open to “phasing out” the tax if there was a replacement source of revenue and said increasing the data center tax is the “most readily available source,”
but he is open to other ideas. Franklin said she supports the meals tax because of the increased school funding it provides to increase per-pupil spending. Prince William County has one of the lower per-pupil spending rates in the region. Angry, however, said he’s waiting for more information before he makes up his mind. Bailey said that she recognizes the concerns some residents and businesses have about the tax and said, going forward, supervisors need to continue to evaluate their future financial strategies and “be inclusive as we weigh the pros and cons, consider the alternatives and always keep in mind what’s best for everyone who calls our county home.”
Republican candidates
Lawson said she is against the meals tax and if elected, “will lead efforts to repeal the meals tax during next year’s budget cycle.” All six other Republican candidates agreed with Lawson’s position, with many calling the meals tax “regressive.” Robinson said she has spoken with restaurants in the Potomac District and some in the Neabsco area and said the tax “needs to be repealed” because restaurants and minority-owned businesses have been affected disproportionately. “I cannot support a tax that brings devastation to our county in every district,” Robinson said.

Abortion, education top issues in hot Va. House races VA HOUSE, from page 1 In the race for the 21st District seat, Democrat Josh Thomas, 35, an attorney, faces former Gainesville supervisor and lobbyist John Stirrup, 66, a Republican. In the neighboring 22nd District, Democrat Travis Nembhard, 35, an attorney and former administrative law judge, faces Republican Ian Lovejoy, 41, a former Manassas city councilman and entrepreneur. With voters motivated by anti-data center angst as well as concerns about whether Virginia will remain the only state in the South where abortion is still legal beyond 15 weeks of pregnancy, early turnout has been strong. In HD 21, more than 9,500 voters had already cast their ballots as of Oct. 31, the third highest in any state House race in the state. Meanwhile, HD 22 has already seen 7,600 early votes cast, the 12th highest in Virginia, according to the Virginia Public Access Project. No incumbents are running in either district. In HD 21, the partisan lean is mixed. Voters supported Rep. Jennifer Wexton by nearly 2 points in 2022, but Republican Gov. Glenn Youngkin won the district with 51.4% of the vote in 2021, according to VPAP. In HD 22, the partisan lean slightly favors Republicans, with voters supporting GOP congressional nominee Hung Cao with 51.3% of the vote in 2022 and Youngkin with 53.2% of the vote in 2021, according to VPAP.
House District 21 candidates
Stirrup was twice elected to the Prince William Board of County Supervisors to represent the Gainesville District in 2003 and 2007. He was a political appointee during the Reagan Administration and has worked as an accountant, commercial real estate broker and a lobbyist for local governments. Two years after leaving the board of supervisors in 2011, Stirrup was arrested for driving while intoxicated 1st, a class 1 misdemeanor, and pleaded guilty to reckless driving, also a misdemeanor, according to Prince William County court records obtained by the Prince William Times. Stirrup said he is running because he has the experience to deliver Virginia’s “conservative comeback.” Youngkin endorsed Stirrup during the primary. Stirrup has received an A rating from the NRA. Thomas is a commercial real estate attorney who served in the U.S. Marine Corps and led tours in Afghanistan. During the pandemic, Thomas joined the Virginia Medical Reserve Corps. Thomas received an F rating from the NRA.
House District 22 candidates
Lovejoy was elected to the Manassas City Council in 2012 and served two terms. This is his second try for a seat in the House of Delegates; Lovejoy lost his 2019 bid in the former District 50 to former delegate Lee Carter, a Democrat. Lovejoy founded Reliant Hiring Solutions, a firm that organizes hiring fairs in various sectors, and owns and manages an art gallery with his wife. Lovejoy received a B rating from the NRA. Nembhard is an attorney who has worked as a financial regulator investigating white collar crime and insider trading at the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority. Nembhard also worked as an administrative law judge and served as an assistant attorney general in the Civil Rights Bureau for the New York State Office of the Attorney General. Nembhard received a “?” rating from the NRA, which it says “often indicates indifference, if not outright hostility, to gun owners’ and sportsmen’s rights.”

of pregnancy and Democrats favoring the state’s current law, which allows access to through the 26th week, abortion rights have been a hot topic in campaign ads for both races. Stirrup was caught on tape earlier this year saying that he favors a 100% or total ban on abortion, according to the Washington Post. Lovejoy said he favors Youngkin’s 15-week ban, calling it “commonsense,” according to his website. Both Thomas and Nembhard have pro-choice views. “When it comes to abortion, I view that as a working family matter. … I stand for folks to be able to decide if and when they want to start that working family,” Thomas said. Nembhard said voters are “concerned” about restricting abortion access in Virginia. “There are folks who fall all across the spectrum on their personal views on it,” Nembhard said. “But one thing that many of them believe is that women are capable of making their own medical decisions and that we should not be in the business of creating new restrictive bans.”
Parents’ rights, teacher pay
Education issues, including parents’ role in public education, boosting student achievement and restricting access to books have become divisive issues in the election. Lovejoy has attended at least one meeting of the local Moms for Liberty group. “Parental involvement in education” is “definitely” a topic voters mention, Lovejoy said. On his website, Lovejoy says supporting underperforming school divisions and empowering parents “to guide their children’s education,” are among his priorities. Stirrup’s website promises he will “fight tooth and nail to get divisive politics out of classrooms and give parents a voice in their children’s education.” In a June interview, Stirrup said he supports school vouchers and expressed concerns about pandemic “learning loss” and “boys using girls’ facilities” in schools. Thomas said the No. 1 question he hears when talking to voters is whether “public education is still a good investment … after the pandemic.” “Democrats have the best answer,” he said, which is “investing in our public schools, particularly, teacher pay and investing in infrastructure and making sure we’re putting out a good quality education product at the end of the education pipeline.” “I think a lot of parents here are worried that the politicization of the classroom is having a negative impact on their kids’ education,” Thomas said. Nembhard, whose wife is a teacher, expressed similar support for investing in public education and paying teachers competitively for “the value

of their work.” “We need to stop villainizing and pitting teachers against parents,” he said. “The fact of the matter is they want the same thing, right?” He also said improved communication is necessary to combat misinformation about what is being taught in schools.
Data centers
All four candidates expressed concern about the overdevelopment of data centers in western Prince William County. Although zoning decisions are made by the local boards of supervisors, Thomas said he would try to use state regulations to prevent “data center overgrowth” near schools, homes, state forests and national battlefields. “There are a lot of things we can do to curb overdevelopment at the state level,” Thomas said, including rules on stormwater management and buffers. While Stirrup did not respond to a request for an interview for this story, in a June interview he said data center proliferation was the biggest concern he was hearing about from voters. “They understand the need for data centers, cloud computing and such, but what I think the real consternation is where they’re being built, close to schools,” he said. Stirrup noted there were five bills before the state legislature earlier this year that sought to restrict data centers from national parks and historic areas. All failed due to bipartisan rejection. “Depending on the outcome of this election in November, it could be a different dynamic both in the general assembly and at the county level,” Stirrup said. Lovejoy called data centers “absolutely the number one issue” for voters in the election. “It’s kind of shocking just how on fire that issue remains,” he said. “People are just seeing it in their daily lives. … It’s something that happens either next to their houses, next to their neighborhoods or immediately down the road. You can’t drive around without seeing some evidence of that happening.” “The reality is that I have a data center growing in my backyard,” said Nembhard, who lives near Chris Yung Elementary School in Bristow, which could be surrounded by the proposed Devlin Technology Park. If approved by the Prince William supervisors, the plan could allow up to 11 data centers on about 270 acres of data centers along Linton Hall Road. “I live in the community and understand the challenges that are affecting them,” Nembhard said, noting that he wouldn’t “choose that for my neighbors, my community.” Although a local issue, “what I can do—and what I intend to do—is leverage my position as a legislator to have those conversations with the board of county supervisors and make sure that I’m advocating as fiercely as possible as to what issues are impacting our residents,” Nembhard said. Lovejoy said data centers should only be placed where “practical” and not in neighborhoods. “Because the plots of land just aren’t big enough to put enough setbacks and enough trees and enough line-of-sight mitigation and noise mitigation to minimize the impacts,” he said. If elected, Lovejoy said he would work to enact state legislation relating to light industrial uses that would include data centers without specifically targeting them. “What delegate or senator is going to vote against reasonable mitigation requirements for industrial development in their neck of the woods?” he noted.

Rosie’s gaming parlor is on the ballot in Manassas Park By Cher Muzyk
Times Staff Writer
Churchill Downs Incorporated, Rosie’s Gaming Emporium’s parent company, has pumped more than $500,000 into its effort to win Manassas Park voters’ approval to bring a new parimutuel betting parlor into their city of about 17,000 residents. Rosie’s promises to bring 150 jobs and generate about $1 million in annual tax revenue for Manassas Park, but the mayor and at least one city councilmember remain opposed. As stipulated by Virginia law, Manassas Park’s 9,000 voters will decide on Election Day whether to welcome Rosie’s into the Manassas Park Shopping Center on Centreville Road, its chosen location. It would be the second Rosie’s Gaming Emporium to open in Northern Virginia and would follow the Rosie’s Gaming Emporium that opened in Dumfries in 2021. That outlet will soon be replaced by “The Rose,” a casino-sized pari-mutuel gaming outlet that’s set to open next year, also in Dumfries. Manassas Park Mayor Jeanette

Rishell (D) said she remains against the Rosie’s referendum because she is concerned it would change the character of Manassas Park, which she describes as a “safe little city that by nature is welcoming to all families and residents.” Rishell said she was told by Churchill Downs that Rosie’s would have between 250 and 350 slot-like betting machines, which she calls a “large predatory operation.” Rishell said she’s concerned the facility could grow to as many as 650 machines. The machines are based on historical horse races. Parimutuel betting creates a pool of winnings paid out based on the amount of money ®
that is wagered. In the U.S., this type of gambling is common in horse racing and is legal in Virginia localities if approved by residents via a ballot referendum. Vice Mayor Alanna Mensing (D) and City Manager Laszlo Palko have also voiced opposition to the plan. Mensing said last spring that bringing Rosie’s to Manassas Park “would drastically help our economy (but) does not match the vision I hold for our city.” Last week, Mensing said her opinion is “mostly unchanged.” “I’m very indifferent to the whole thing,” she said. The two are outnumbered, however, by the four other councilmem-
bers who are expressing support for the plan and appearing in social media ads encouraging residents to vote yes on the referendum. Councilmembers Yesenia Amaya (D) and Laura Hampton (I) have appeared in Facebook ads touting the benefits of opening Manassas Park to Rosie’s. “This is an opportunity, a direct opportunity, for Manassas Park voters to reduce the taxes here in Manassas Park,” Hampton says in her video ad. “It puts Manassas Park on the map as a destination center for individuals that live outside Manassas Park to spend their money here.” See ROSIE’S, page 7

County planners urge denial of Digital Gateway
DENIAL, from page 1
The planning staff’s decision on the project was released Friday, Oct. 27 and comes ahead of a planned Nov. 8 public hearing before the Prince William County Planning Commission. The decision follows months of review by the county’s professional planners. QTS and Compass submitted four versions of their rezoning applications, all of which were reviewed by county agencies and neighboring property owners, including the Manassas National Battlefield Park and Conway Memorial State Forest—both of which continue to express their strong objections. The recommendation does not mean the projects won’t go forward. The county’s professional planning staff issues an advisory recommendation for every rezoning project. The Prince William Board of County Supervisors will have the final say and have scheduled hearings and votes for Tuesday, Dec. 12. Under that timeline, the board will hear the projects about a month after the Nov. 7 election and just weeks before newly elected board members take office on Jan. 1. The planning staff’s recommendation was welcome news to activists who have been fighting the project since its inception. Elena Schlossberg, executive director of the Coalition to Protect Prince Wil-
liam County, called the staff’s rejection of the project “a vindication.” “This is vindication that everything that the community has been saying is right and that all the gaslighting” by county officials who support the project “could not suppress the truth.” QTS could not be reached for comment on Friday afternoon. Ghadban said she is “confident” the data center developers and county staff will work out the remaining issues. “These cases are too important to a future Prince William that is a world-class community,” Ghadban said in a text message. Those sentiments were echoed by Board of Supervisors Chair Ann Wheeler, who has been a proponent of the PW Digital Gateway. Wheeler and the board’s four other Democratic supervisors— Victor Angry (Neabsco), Andrea Bailey (Potomac), Kenny Boddye (Occoquan) and Margaret Franklin (Woodbridge)— voted in favor of the county’s comprehensive plan amendment paving the way for the PW Digital Gateway rezoning in November 2022. The amendment laid out the supervisors’ vision for the corridor, which they contend could be a mix of industrial buildings and open space, complete with hiking and equestrian trails. Promotional materials for the PW Digital Gateway pitch a parklike development where residents

could hike or ride their bikes along streams and wildlife corridors weaving through 90-foot-tall industrial warehouses and as many as a dozen electrical substations—an idea critics have called far-fetched at best. In a statement Friday, Wheeler said she “was not very surprised” the planning department recommended denial and said she believes that the staff concerns could eventually be addressed by the data center developers. “It is ultimately up to the applicants to address any issues and work with the planning commission and the board of county supervisors regarding these concerns,” she said. Wheeler was unseated in the June 20 primary by fellow Democrat Deshundra Jefferson, who reiterated on Friday that she strongly opposes the PW Digital Gateway. Both Jefferson and Supervisor Jeanine Lawson, the Republican nominee for board chair, issued statements Friday saying they agree with the county planning staff’s recommendation. “I’ve said from the beginning that PW Digital Gateway would be catastrophic for the county and the national park. The more our agencies evaluate this project, the more apparent it becomes just how irresponsible it is,” Lawson said. “No one can objectively look at this and determine it’s in the best interest of Prince William County.” “The Prince William Digital Gateway is not the right project,” Jefferson told the Prince William Times. “There are too many questions and too many unknowns. This is one of the largest land-use cases that’s come before the board of supervisors in years, and they should not rush to pass it.”

The PW Digital Gateway is comprised of three separate rezoning applications, two from QTS and one from Compass Datacenters. Dubbed PW Digital Gateway North and South, the two QTS rezonings cover a collective 876 acres that are proposed for 10.7 million square feet of data center space. The Compass application seeks to rezone 885 acres to allow for 11.5 million square feet of data center space. Together, the two projects propose as many as 34 separate data center buildings. In explaining its recommendation for denial, the county’s planning staff cited 10 nearly identical reasons for all three applications. They ranged from lack of information on the siting and design of the data center buildings and the effects of the projects on electrical infrastructure and the nearby Manassas National Battlefield Park. As part of the zoning plan, the applicants had jointly provided a “master corridor plan,” which consisted of overhead sketches of building footprints, trees, creeks and sites for power substations. But the staff wrote that the “building locations and site layouts depicted in the MCP
are for illustrative purposes” and do not indicate nor stipulate where the buildings will actually be built. Similarly, the county planning staff faulted QTS and Compass for not supplying anything but rudimentary side views of the proposed buildings. Without what are known as detailed “elevations,” the staff wrote, county officials would have no idea what the buildings would look like the project was finished. County staff also complained that the developers had made a half-dozen proffers that would allow them to make changes to numbers of buildings and sizes, architecture, landscaping and noise mitigation measures after the rezonings are approved. Also, missing from the plans are routes for transmission lines to serve the dozen or more substations needed for the data center campuses. By not designating corridors for these high-power lines, the developers are causing them “to be located in areas identified to preserve forests and sensitive environmental resources and cultural resources,” the county staff wrote. In addition, both applicants had sought waivers from having to obtain a special use permit to build data centers outside of the county’s data center opportunity overlay district. The developers had contended they did so much work on their applications that an SUP was not needed. But the staff said the applications lacked “building footprints, site layouts and elevations,” which are normally found in an SUP application. The reasons for denial are nearly identical for Compass, QTS north and south, with the exception of an additional objection for QTS south that deals with the view of data center buildings from the Manassas battlefield. Some of the proposed data centers are only a few hundred feet from the battlefield grounds. The staff said there “remains a level of uncertainty” on the visibility of the buildings from the battlefield once the project is finished and that it is especially critical of what it saw as a lack of commitment to buffers. By issuing these objections 12 days before the scheduled planning commission meeting, the staff could be providing some wiggle room for the developers to answer at least a few of their objections. But their last paragraph of commentary notes that there are still many unresolved issues with 10 different state and county agencies that have been asking questions and raising objections since the first rezoning application was filed in the spring of 2022. This is not to mention the scores of pages of issues, questions and comments from the planning staff itself in the past year. Manassas battlefield Superintendent Kristopher Butcher has warned of the data centers’ “wholesale destruction” of historic landscapes related to major Civil War camps and troop burials.

GUEST OPINION
My vision for Prince William: A brighter path forward By Jeanine Lawson Over the last decade it’s been an honor to represent the people of Brentsville District on the Prince William Board of County Supervisors. I’ve been a witness and partner to some wonderful improvements for our community. I’ve seen new schools, parks and roads built, small businesses launched and flourish, historic barns transformed into spectacular beauties and so much more. As satisfying as these achievements are, what is most gratifying is working closely with the public on an array of issues to better the lives of Prince William families. As a resident of 28 years, a mom and as a county supervisor, I love calling Prince William County home, but I want to be very clear—I have no love for the direction Ann Wheeler and her board majority have taken us the last four years. Increasing taxes and ramming through controversial development plans have turned our community upside down. County residents suffered as the board majority ruled with an iron fist. Local government is expected to act in the best interest of an entire community. They do this by listening to residents’ concerns, consulting with staff and outside experts, then working collaboratively to determine the best way forward to address those concerns. Unfortunately, this
Jeanine Lawson
has not been the case these last four years. A lack of trust from the public has led to a fractured relationship between elected officials as well as the people they represent. Electing my opponent will only produce more of the same. It’s time we reverse course. The bottom line is that Prince William deserves a board that will put its residents first—a board that listens, works with constituents, focuses on commonsense solutions and wants to actually protect the county it represents. That is my vision as chair of the Prince William Board of County Supervisors. It is the job of the chair to set the tone, to provide effective leadership, and to navigate the complexities of local government while ensuring we’re putting our residents first above all else. This is no easy task on an eight-seat board reeling from four years of bitter spats and a board majority that’s focused more on corporate interests and scoring political points than residents’ interests. This is not a hyper-partisan race.
This is a race about a better future for all Prince William families. That’s why my campaign for chair has been about building bridges from the beginning. Residents from across the political spectrum are supporting my race. That includes endorsements from respected Democrats, including retired commonwealth’s attorney Paul Ebert and retired Woodbridge supervisor Hilda Barg, as well as the HOA Roundtable, the Fraternal Order of Police and the Prince William Realtors Association. These groups and individuals know this isn’t about political parties. It’s about effective leadership and commonsense solutions to lower taxes, lower crime and end reckless development. I am proud that I am the only candidate in this race with bipartisan support. I will always put the people of Prince William County over party politics and corporate profits. Lastly, we’ve heard endless discussion over the last 18 months regarding the data center industry. To be clear, the data center industry is not what it was five years ago, which is why I have called on our county to put the brakes on data center rezonings until we can actively gauge how their development affects our environment and quality of life. Data is necessary but that doesn’t mean it’s our responsibility to become the
dumping ground for data. My vision for Prince William is simple. I will lower taxes so that families already struggling through inflation can make ends meet. This starts with repealing the meals tax and reducing the personal property (car) and real estate taxes. I will restore the rural crescent and follow the principles of smart growth. Additionally, we must prioritize our public safety, which starts with funding our police department so they can be fully equipped to ensure our safety and peace of mind. Finally, my vision for Prince William consists of our local government working for you. The election on Nov. 7 is arguably the most serious in decades with significant consequences for generations to come. What will our legacy be? Will we continue on our current path escalating into further tax increases, irreversible development and out of control crime? We won’t be able to turn back time. Now is our opportunity to change course, and Prince William families deserve a brighter path forward. I’m asking for your vote. Supervisor Jeanine Lawson is the Republican nominee for chair of the Prince William Board of County Supervisors. An op-ed by Deshundra Jefferson, Lawson’s Democratic opponent, published on Sept. 14.
LETTER TO THE EDITOR
In support of Jeanine Lawson and Danica Roem I had a little Ford EXP; it was a hatchback, which was convenient, especially for someone like me, having left home at 18, finding herself moving every year for a decade, a new room to rent, new roommates. All that changed, when I married a man who had a dream to own enough land that he could buy a tractor. So, we moved from Centreville, having saved most every penny for several years, and built our forever home in the rural crescent. It wasn’t the prettiest lot, in fact, it looked like an “Adams family” lot, overgrown with vines, choking the very life out of almost nearly every tree. My husband single-handedly saved every tree, cutting poison ivy vines in spring and waiting until winter, when they withered and died, to pull the dead vines from each tree with his beloved 50-year-old used tractor. This home we built has been a labor of love, and ROSIE’S, from page 7 “Parimutuel wagering means revenue, jobs and a lot of fun,” Amaya said in her Facebook video ad. “It’ll help pay our firefighters, our police officers and our teachers. So, Rosie’s will make Manassas Park a whole lot better.” Along with Hampton and Amaya,
the roots we built are not just the brick and mortar of our house, not just the roots of our children, but the bonds we have created are with the people I have met throughout Prince William County. I recognized the desire to destroy the rural crescent as more than an environmental threat but as a bludgeoning tool to sow division. Indeed, while I view the threats of industrial sprawl and the dismantling of the rural crescent as environmentally and fiscally irresponsible, the existential damage is even more dangerous. Given recent events, my decision for county chair has crystalized. While Jeanine Lawson and I do not agree on every issue, Jeanine has stood true to her word to protect the rural crescent, stop data center sprawl and stand up for those who have been fighting to protect their homes and unique history, including the Carver Road community, Save Historic Thoroughfare and residents along
City Councilmembers Michael Carrera (I) and Darryl Moore (D) penned an Aug. 3 letter to the editor in support of Rosie’s. “If approved by voters, Rosie’s Gaming Emporium will generate millions in new tax revenue to help ease pressure on taxpayers and create new well-paying jobs in Manassas Park. This is exactly the kind of opportunity we need,” they wrote.
the route of the proposed 28 bypass. Prince William County needs healing. The calculated division of east versus west must stop. It is a cynical abuse of voter concerns. To make healing possible, trust is going to be the most important ingredient. I trust Jeanine Lawson to be our next chair and represent everyone. At the same time, I’m also supporting Danica Roem, who is running for state Senate. Danica has been a steadfast supporter of protecting our remaining rural places in Prince William County. She will not be dissuaded by developers, special interest or even her own local party’s twisted talking points. She carried legislation to put some guardrails around data center development, and she has promised to do so again if elected. She has my unwavering trust and my vote.
The Prince William Chamber of Commerce has also endorsed the project. If the referendum is successful, Churchill Downs will have to file for a conditional use permit that will be reviewed by the city’s planning staff and approved by Manassas Park City Council before it can open, Palko said. The process ensures a public
ELENA SCHLOSSBERG Haymarket
safety plan is in place and that traffic and other concerns are addressed. “A conditional use permit can be denied if these concerns are not addressed, but it cannot be denied based on the type of use,” Palko said. “That question is being decided by our residents this November.” Reach Cher Muzyk at cmuzyk@ fauquier.com

Join the dinner party Contributing Writer
A fine dining restaurant with a “fixed price menu” at $145 a pop might sound intimidating. But those looking for an elevated and delectable “farm to table” dining experience will have an intimate and rare experience. Chef Stephen Burke, 27, and his wife and co-owner, Kelly Burke, 26, offer a unique concept: The restaurant seats only 30 patrons. All arrive at the same time and savor the same meal— like a big dinner party or a special event with extended family. It’s also dinner and a show, and it’s a pleasure to watch. The staff’s attention to detail is apparent from attendants who carefully plate courses with tweezers and pour sauces tableside. Each chef gets their turn to shine, preparing meals that Burke describes as “novel but still recognizable … with some nostalgia.” Like any fancy dinner party, the seating begins with a welcoming glass of bubbly to enjoy as diners settle in for the evening. It’s followed by two scrumptious, more-than-morsel-size savory bites to whet the appetite before the evening’s five-course meal begins. A recent night’s menu included sea bass with local apples, grilled octopus with Marcona almonds, chicken roulade with chanterelles, short ribs with roasted turnip puree, and dark chocolate semi-freddo with orange bitters ice cream. Unexpected additional confections followed dessert. An optional $20 cheese course featured “Rogue River Blue,” a blue cheese wrapped and aged in grape leaves, soaked in pear liquor. It was served with poached apples from Hartland Farms and a glass of port from Monticello. Co-owner and investor Sharon Briskman says the fully renovated
restaurant aims to offer guests “the best meal and best service they could ever have.” “We need this here,” Briskman said, noting the Vint Hill area lacks fine-dining options. Diners must make a reservation and are asked to pick between the 11foot chef’s counter or a plush private table. Kelly Burke prints a seating chart so the staff can refer to everyone by name. “I don’t want to cook for tickets—I want to cook for people,” said Stephen Burke, who adds that Alias happily accommodates guests’ dietary restrictions with advanced notice so meals can be thoughtfully prepared. The restaurant follows the “farmto-table” tradition: preparing seasonal dishes sourced from local farmers. The Burkes have a long-standing relationship with Whiffletree Farms, where they get their pasture raised meat and eggs. “We have worked with Chef Stephen at his two prior restaurants (Three Blacksmiths and L’Auberge Chez François) and are very pleased to see him in his own place,” said Whiffletree Farms owner Jesse Straight. Alias strives not to let anything go to waste. “It’s sinful to throw produce away,” Stephen Burke said. “We feel that responsibility.” Stephen’s younger brother, Andrew Burke, the restaurant’s sous-chef, is lovingly nicknamed the “waste police” for gathering scraps that can be used in stocks and other flavorings,

Stephen Burke said. An optional wine pairing, presented by the house sommelier, is at hand. Hand-crafted cocktails with names like “Old Fashioned Coverup” and “Incognito”—a nod to Vint Hill Farm Station, the former Army spy base it calls home—are also on the menu. “We’re learning how to dance around each other, around this kitchen, as new staff in a new space,” said Kelly Burke, who is also a new mom to the couple’s 3-month-old son, Atticus.
She and Stephen have worked together at several restaurants, including at The Inn at Little Washington, since they began dating seven years ago. Although co-owning a restaurant as a married couple means “there’s never a moment off work,” they say they wouldn’t have it any other way. “We’re just doing what we love,” Stephen Burke said. “The victories and the losses are ours to share.” Reach Sondra Anzalone at news@ fauquier.com

‘Sarge’ charges through sky at 120 mph 91-year-old Gainesville man celebrates birthday with skydive By Peter Brewington Times Staff Writer
Relentlessly positive, outgoing and talkative, Joseph “Sarge” Roach is one of those people who lights up the halls at Harper’s Station, an independent and assisted living community in Gainesville. It was no surprise then to see the exuberant Roach celebrate his 91st birthday by going skydiving last week. Roach jumped from 14,500 feet hooked up with an instructor from Skydive Orange, a jump center about an hour south in Orange. Roach is a former master sergeant whose 21-year military career included over 300 parachute jumps. He was a jump instructor at Fort Bragg and West Point and served in the Korean War and Vietnam War. He knows tandem skydivers reach speeds of 120 mph during free fall. “In the military you jump from much lower, but if you got it in your blood, you want to get out and do it. It was my idea, I wanted to go again,” said Roach. Roach got inspired to get back into jumping about four years ago and convinced his wife, Billie Jean, to jump for the first time. “I was so proud of my wife when she did it with
Parkinson’s and all. It made me feel good for her,” said Roach about Billie Jean, who passed away in 2022. “My wife was very small. She looked like a baby when she was hooked in for that jump.” Roach’s 91st birthday was Oct. 24. Since no jumps were offered that day, he went on Oct. 25 joined by his son Joe and granddaughter Katie. “It’s great, it was such a clear day. You could see, to coin a phrase, miles and miles,” said Roach. After dropping from the plane, he described a quick period where jumpers encounter sensory overload and can’t remember what happened for a few seconds. “It’s like you’re not there. Then you come back and he’s talking to me,” said Roach about instructor Mario Ripa. See SKYDIVER, page 12

Cougars (9-0) host Tigers (8-1) in pre-playoff showdown By Peter Brewington Times Staff Writer
PHOTO BY JOHN SCOTT HUGGINS
Nico Orlando and the Brentsville Tigers (8-1) visit Nokesville rival Kettle Run (9-0) in Friday’s showdown for the Class 3 Northwestern District title.
Kettle Run is 9-0 and coming in as the defending Class 4 state runner-up. Brentsville is 8-1 and has reached the Class 3 semifinals two years in a row. Grab your popcorn. Friday’s regular season finale showdown between the Nokesville area rivals isn’t a playoff game, but it could be in three or four weeks as Kettle Run is No. 2 and Brentsville No. 3 in the Class 3 Region B rankings. The game is at Kettle Run at 7 p.m. “This is probably going to be our biggest game, our hardest game. It’s going to be the best team we play, and it’s just going to be a little taste of (the) 3A (playoffs),” said Kettle Run quarterback Jake Mulhern, whose team has moved down from Class 4. “It’s a big thing. We’ve finally gotten to this point. We’re here,” said Brentsville coach Loren White of the season-long buildup to the game to decide the Class 3 Northwestern District title. “They’re 10 miles away from us, and with us both being in the same conference and region now, I think that game just means a little bit more,” said Kettle Run coach Charlie Porterfield. “It always was a big one for us, but I think now it just means a little bit more.” The squads have played nearly identical schedules with similar results. Brentsville’s lone loss came to Class 4 power Millbrook 21-14 in overtime way back on Sept. 8. The
‘We want to keep riding this wave.’ - BRENTSVILLE COACH LOREN WHITE
Tigers have four wins over Class 4 teams, beating Sherando, James Wood, Handley and Liberty. Brentsville will make the playoffs for the ninth straight time this year and may have the best team in school history. “They’re a solid team. They’re good. We know they’re good. Our biggest thing is just great week of practice. Best practice of the season,” said running back Colton Quaker. “They don’t have any surprises for us, so I think it’s going to come down to who’s the better team and who wants it more.” Kettle Run won 38-7 last year and 35-14 in 2021. They didn’t play in the pandemic-affected 2020 season. Brentsville last won 21-20 in 2019, a year when the Cougars were 1-9. The Tigers have big-play makers in quarterback Caleb Alexander and running back Nico Orlando. Kettle Run’s Quaker, who has rushed for 1,244 yards and scored 25 touchdowns, is the focal point of the Cougars’ attack and he’s surrounded by speedy skill players in quarterback Mulhern and elite receiver Sammy Rodgers.

going into the playTigers, Cougars tangle ofoffs,momentum and we’re just going to keep on in battle of Nokesville pushing. Everybody’s got to be in it FOOTBALL, from page 11 “The Mulhern kid is new on the scene,” said White. “He’s a quick kid that gets the ball out well and Quaker’s been around since day one and he’s only a junior. He’s patient and physical and has a burst of speed. And Porterfield’s an O-line guy (former player). His guys always get good punch up front.” Coming off shutouts of Fauquier 56-0 and Skyline 37-0, White thinks his team is ready and healthy. “It’s been great. We’ve learned a lot this year. I like my group of guys. They’re amped up and ready to go. We want to keep riding this wave,” said the Tigers’ third year coach. Kettle Run’s Mulhern is also psyched. “It’s going to give us a lot
to win it,” said the Cougar QB. Kettle Run has made the Class 3 state semifinals twice, losing close games in 2011 and 2012, both to James Monroe. The Cougars went 13-1 last year, losing to powerful Dinwiddie County 65-20 in the Class 4 title game at Liberty University. Friday’s clash for the Class 3 Northwestern District title will set the tone for the playoffs and perhaps help the winner move up to No. 1 in the Region B rankings. Thomas Jefferson-Richmond is No. 1 now. “I think this is what we hoped it would be when we found out the schedule was going to be Brentsville at the end,” said Porterfield. “We were hoping we would be 8-1, 9-0 at this time, and we’re going to be able to roll in and that be for all the marbles.”
Roach enjoys ride from 14,500 feet SKYDIVER, from page 11 Ripa pointed out sights in the sky and below them as they floated down. “He said, ‘Over there is your son, and over there is your granddaughter,’ and so and so. Then he said, “Now you can see them on the ground.’’’ Roach said he didn’t seek approval from any doctors for the skydive. But added his urologist knew about PHOTO COURTESY OF SKYDIVE ORANGE

it. “I have a catheter in me. When I asked him for his professional opinion, he said, ‘Make sure you drain the bag,’” Roach said with a laugh. Standing tall at 6-0, the native of Carlisle, Pa., is trim and exudes energy. He’s got a pacemaker, as well as a rare autoimmune condition called myasthenia gravis, which causes muscle weakness, but nothing appears to dampen his positive spirit. “It (myasthenia gravis) puts a lot of people down, but it does not bother me at all. I get out a bit, I get around,” said Roach, who used to run marathons with his wife. Roach continues the proud tradition of senior citizen free fallers like George Bush Sr., who famously did a skydive for his 90th birthday. “I’ve
done three tandems. I kept thinking about it. It’s in the news. Bush did it. A lady of 104 just did it,” said Roach. “I intend to keep this up every year as long as I’m able.” If you visit Room 2118 at Harper’s Station, you’ll see Roach’s door propped open with a rock. “I get to meet more people that way. That’s why the rock is there,” says sociable “Sarge.” He also likes to hang out in the lobby by the front desk and say hi to folks and deliver packages to neighbors around the building. “A lot of people tell me that it’s my nature and the nature of my family to help people and do good with them. I think it comes all the way back to my dad and grandad on down,” said Roach.

For sale: 4 bedrooms, 3 baths, a few ghosts By Tyler Ross
Ross R eal Estate
Real estate agents often find themselves navigating challenging situations when selling properties, but perhaps none are as intriguing as the sale of a haunted house. The task of selling a haunted house goes beyond conventional real estate practices and brings with it a unique set of “super-natural” challenges. Put yourself in the shoes of your favorite real estate agent (me). Imagine receiving a listing for a charming, century-old mansion in Old Town Warrenton. To the naked eye, it’s nestled amidst towering oak trees, maybe sits on a commanding hill behind ivy-covered walls, fences or gates. The property exudes grandeur and history. When people walk by, they stop to take in its beauty and charm. You think to yourself: “What an amazing
property! I can’t wait to list this! it will sell right away!” But wait, you learn this house also carries a chilling reputation. Locals whisper about strange occurrences, apparitions and unexplained noises echoing into the streets. Anyone you know who has lived in the area has a story of a bizarre event, a phenomenon that doesn’t seem believable. A friend of a friend lived in that house, and you now know, for a fact, this house is no ordinary house. This house is haunted. The first step in the listing process of any good real estate agent is to research and gather information about the property. In this case, research means delving into the haunted history of the home. Local legends, newspaper clippings and eyewitness accounts all become part of your process. You learn about the
We are pledged to the letter and spirit of Virginia’s policy for the achievement of equal housing opportunity throughout the Commonwealth.

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.

house’s tragic past—a former owner who mysteriously disappeared; the Civil War soldiers who stayed there; the family who endured the unthinkable. … The tales of ghostly encounters span decades. These stories are enough to send shivers down anyone’s spine. To successfully sell a haunted house, one must understand the market. One must indulge themselves in the lifestyle of the niche group of buyers who are drawn to the paranormal, those seeking homes with a supernatural history. You must find common ground with the buyers intrigued by the thrill of living in a haunted house. You need to refine your marketing efforts to home in on those who may be more willing to not only overlook spectral residents but actively seek them. Marketing a house is an art form. Marketing a haunted house is the highest form of such an art. Traditional tactics such as professional photography and appealing descriptions hardly scratch the surface. For example, in some cases, agents might collaborate with paranormal investigators to document and authenticate supernatural occurrences, adding an air of authenticity to the listing. The agent must carefully craft a narrative that draws potential buyers without sensationalizing or downplaying the property’s eerie history. The agent needs to ensure expectations are met. Imagine the excitement of new buyers visiting the house only to be disappointed by the lack of ghosts, demons or spirits. Without the authentication of genuine poltergeists, that buyer may move on and pur-
chase a haunted home elsewhere. Assuming you can secure a good purchaser, negotiating the sale of a haunted house often involves unconventional requests. Buyers may ask for paranormal investigations, spiritual cleansings or even discounts to account for the eerie atmosphere. Handling these negotiations requires a delicate balance between accommodating buyer requests and ensuring the seller’s interests are protected. Selling a haunted house as a real estate agent can be a unique and challenging endeavor that requires a combination of market knowledge, marketing skills and a deep understanding of the supernatural. Navigating the sale of such a property involves not only managing the expectations of potential buyers but also respecting the history and stories that surround the house. It’s a journey filled with eerie tales, unexpected twists and the opportunity to find buyers who are willing to embrace the supernatural as part of their new home’s charm. In the end, though, Virginia is a “caveat emptor” state, which means “let the buyer beware.” So, the alternative is the seller can simply choose not to disclose that their house is haunted. Happy haunting!

COMMENT ON THE DESIGN OF THE PRINCE WILLIAM PARKWAY AT OLD BRIDGE ROAD INTERSECTION IMPROVEMENT PROJECT OCCOQUAN MAGISTERIAL DISTRICT (UPC: 119073) VENUE: The County Board Room 1 County Complex Court, Woodbridge, VA 22192 The Prince William County Department of Transportation will conduct a Design Public Hearing for the Prince William Parkway (Rte. 294) at Old Bridge Road Intersection Improvement Project at the County Boardroom 1 County Complex Court, Woodbridge, VA, 22192, at 2:00 p.m. on Tuesday December 5, 2023. The event will be streamed live virtually through the link posted on the Prince William Board of County Supervisors webpage at: https://www.pwcva.gov/department/ board-county-supervisors. In the event of inclement weather, this Design Public Hearing will be rescheduled for a later date. Public notifications and readvertisement will be issued accordingly. The purpose of this public hearing is to ensure that the public is provided with an opportunity to both review and discuss the proposed improvements and potential impacts to the surrounding properties. This hearing will also provide an opportunity for public feedback on the current design of this intersection improvement project. Project plans, information regarding property impacts and right-of-way assistance information will be available at this public hearing and 30 days prior to the hearing. A tentative project schedule will also be discussed at the meeting. The project consists of improvements at the intersection of Prince William Parkway and Old Bridge Road. The improvements include realigning and straightening Prince William Parkway, improving left- and right-turn movements and realigning Old Bridge Road to intersect with Prince William Parkway as a side street. Prince William Parkway's realignment will be the primary thru movement with features including 12-foot lanes, a variable width raised median, a 5-foot sidewalk along the eastbound lanes, and a 10-foot shared use path (SUP) along the westbound lanes. Old Bridge Road's realignment will be the secondary movement with features including 12-foot lanes, a 4-foot raised median, and 5-foot sidewalks on both sides of the roadway. The project includes access management, turn lanes, intersection improvements, and a signal modification at the main T-intersection. A service road will be provided along the eastbound lanes of Prince William Parkway to provide residents with improved access to Prince William Parkway. This project will mitigate traffic diverting from the Prince William Parkway (principal arterial) to Old Bridge Road (minor arterial) to improve throughout and overall level of service. In addition, new pedestrian crossings, utility relocations, storm drainage, and storm water management (SWM) facilities will be provided. In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act and 23 CFR 771.117, a Categorical Exclusion (CE) document has been prepared to assess the project's potential effects upon environmental resources and to determine if there are any significant environmental impacts.
