Nonprofits warn of eviction ‘disaster’

By Daniel Berti

Times Staff Writer

The Prince William County government and local nonprofits have spent millions in CARES Act funds to keep area residents impacted by the pandemic from being evicted from their homes this year. Now, some local nonprofits are warning of a potentially painful start to 2021 as the CARES Act deadline approaches and money for local housing assistance runs out.

“Unless the CARES money gets extended, the funds simply aren’t there to help,” said Steve Liga, executive director of Action in Community Through Service, or ACTS. “That is going to be a disaster when that happens.”

The county was awarded $82 million in state-allocated federal CARES Act funds earlier this year.

About $4 million went to the county’s housing assistance program to provide rent, mortgage or utility assistance to people impacted by the pandemic.

Another $3 million went to area nonprofits that already had the infrastructure in place to quickly get emergency aid to county residents.

Several of those nonprofit directors said the need for housing aid in the county was so great that they exhausted their funds within weeks.

Now, with the county’s CARES Act funds set to expire on Dec. 30, some say there could be a “wave” of evictions in the county in early 2021.

Del. Jennifer Carroll Foy announced Tuesday she is resigning from her Woodbridge and Stafford area House of Delegates seat to focus on her run for governor, a move that will allow her to continue fundraising while the General Assembly is in session.

The decision will force a quickly organized special election. Gov. Ralph Northam is expected to schedule the contest for Tuesday, Jan. 5, Keith Scarborough, secretary of Prince William County’s Electoral Board, said Tuesday.

The timeline will require the two parties to pick their candidates as soon as next week, Scarborough said.

The Prince William Board of County Supervisors is standing by its decision to hire Washington D.C. Metropolitan Police Chief Peter Newsham as Prince William County’s next police chief despite pushback from some county residents.

Dozens of county residents, including many young residents, spoke out against Newsham’s hiring during the Tuesday, Dec. 1 board meeting and expressed concerns about Newsham’s controversial four-year tenure as MPD chief, and what they said was a lack of citizen input in the hiring process.

EVICTION, from page 1 “I’ve never seen this before in the time that we’ve been in this county.

I don’t think that we have the funds to help everybody. I just don’t,” said Madlin Edmonds, chief executive officer of New Creatures-in-Christ Ministries. “One person is $10,000.

Another is $8,000, another $7,000.

And what is that? Maybe there’s five or six people that we can help. That does not even touch the tip of what’s needed here.”

The pandemic caused an unemployment crisis across the country, especially for those working in low-wage and service industry jobs. The unemployment rate in the Prince William-area jumped to 9% in June and is now about 5% statewide. The measure does not take into account underemployment, however.

Liga said that rising unemployment and underemployment means that even when residents receive help with their unpaid bills, it only gets them back to square one -- out of work.

“It’s not as if they’re going to be able to go right out and get a job, and those jobs that were lost may not be coming back for a long time,” Liga said.

Evictions ongoing

The most troubling issue identified by several nonprofit directors are the hundreds of county residents who are thousands of dollars behind on rent and are currently going through the evictions process in county courts. Many are on the cusp of eviction but have not yet been put out of their homes because of national and state moratoriums put in place at the start of the pandemic.

Those eviction moratoriums are set to loosen in January, and with local CARES Act money running out, many county residents could be put out of their homes.

“They may not be evicted, but they may be behind five months in rent,” Liga said. “Legally, they haven’t been put out yet. But that process is right there and as soon as they’re able to be, they will be put out. And we’re really concerned about that.

There could be a huge wave of peoskysthelimitdmv20@gmail.com

"There could be a huge wave of people coming really soon that are going to be evicted and the assistance is not there.”

STEVE LIGA Chief executive officer of Action in the Community Through Service (ACTS).

ple coming really soon that are going to be evicted and the assistance is not there.”

And even with those eviction moratoriums in place, evictions are still happening, albeit at a much slower pace than usual.

Prince William County Sheriff’s Chief Deputy Terry Fearnley said that between July 1 and mid-October, the sheriff’s department had carried out 217 evictions in Prince William, Manassas and Manassas Park.

During the same time period in 2019, Fearnley said the department executed more than 700 evictions.

Fearnley said the sheriff’s department has been working in direct connection with the county government to help connect renters facing eviction with assistance programs.

Without that, he said, evictions may have been much higher.

“That’s what we think is keeping these numbers so low,” Fearnley said. “When we go out to serve [eviction notices], we talk to the individual and find out what their issue is and find out what’s going on and then we hold off on the eviction for a week to allow them to get in touch with the county. We don’t want to put anybody out of their homes if we can help it.”

Prince William County Housing Director Bill Lake said those evictions are still taking place because landlords are finding other means of evicting people and families from their homes to get around the federal and state eviction restrictions. That means renters are still being evicted for lease violations not related to the non-payment of rent.

“That’s what owners have become very smart about. They can’t evict them because of not paying rent. So, they will find something else within the lease that the family

its through the Human Services Alliance of Greater Prince William, a nonprofit association of traditional and non-traditional human services providers, including faith-based and other community organizations.

From there, the Alliance distributed the money to the dozens of nonprofits in their network.

Chelsi Conway, executive director of The Human Services Alliance, said their program “serves people who may not necessarily be eligible for the county program.”

“We kind of get the people who are in the gap in terms of what disaster relief efforts have been made available to them,” Conway said.

Since August, The Human Services Alliance has spent $2.5 million of the $3 million in CARES Act funds they were granted. Conway said the rest of the money will be spent in the next few weeks ahead of the CARES Act deadline. She said the alliance has been able to spend so quickly is because “the need is so great.”

“This virus and the shutdown have just impacted so many people in so many different ways,” Conway said.

A silver lining is that Prince William County’s own housing assistance program will continue into 2021 by using CARES Act funds from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, which has a lengthier deadline. But the county’s housing program requires more documentation, and it can take weeks to process a single application. For people experiencing a housing crisis, that is often too long to wait.

By contrast, nonprofits can get money out the door to people within days, or even hours. Nonprofits are also able to provide money to undocumented families, which the county is barred from doing as a stipulation of the CARES Act. Prince William County, Manassas and Manassas Park have among the largest undocumented populations in the commonwealth, with an estimated 35,000 undocumented residents living in the area.

Because of those limitations, the county sent funds to local nonprof-

Walts: No changes despite rising COVID-19 cases

By Jill Palermo

COVID-19 cases at schools

Times Staff Writer

As of Nov. 30, more than 200 Prince William County students and 157 staff members had tested positive for the novel coronavirus since the start of the school year, including 100 staff and 14 students attending or working in person at local schools.

But neither those numbers – nor the county school’s ongoing “highest risk” COVID-19 metrics –offer sufficient reason yet for the school division to pull back on its hybrid, in-person learning plan, which expanded last week to include about 3,000 first grade students attending school in person two days a week.

That was the message Superintendent Steven Walts shared with school board members during their Wednesday, Dec. 2 meeting, during which he said he’s is not recommending any changes in school division operations despite rising infection rates across the county and state -- or the increasing number of cases reported among students and staff.

Walts said he would maintain the status quo, for now, “due in large part” to the limited number of students attending school in person coupled with the school division’s “extensive mitigation efforts,” which include at least 3 feet social distancing requiring face-coverings and other protective gear as appropriate and frequent cleaning and hand-washing.

Walts noted, however, that the school division is keeping a close eye on COVID-19 metrics daily and could make a change “should more indicators reach the highest levels.”

For the last several weeks, Prince William County’s COVID-19 metrics have topped the region in both the average daily infection rate per 100,000 residents and percent-positivity rate on COVID-19 tests.

Mountain View Elementary School kindergarten students work at their desks Tuesday, Nov. 10, the first day they returned for in-person learning.

Walts and other members of the school division’s pandemic team again stressed that Prince William County Schools officials would not tie their decisions to one or two key metrics, mostly because they said the numbers are not a reflection of the school division’s ability to control the spread of the coronavirus inside school buildings.

Denise Huebner, associate superintendent for student services and special education, said the school division continues to place itself in the “moderate to high” risk factor on the Virginia Department of Health’s risk scale for schools – a determination school division officials make in consultation with Prince William Health District Director Dr. Alison Ansher.

“I assure you that our decisions are being made thoughtfully based on a number of indicators. It is

our team’s belief that we have a stronger methodology by not anchoring on a single metric,” Huebner said. “There are a number of factors to consider, and again, perhaps most important is our ability to mitigate the risk.”

Huebner said the school division’s pandemic team believes the level of spread of COVID-19 in the community is not necessarily tied to transmission of the virus in schools as long as schools’ mitigation efforts are successful.

So far, Huebner and other school division officials said, “there is no evidence” of the virus’s transmission inside a Prince William County school building.

What might change schools’ status?

The school division could change its operations if the county’s COVID-19 situation grows more severe, as might be reflected in “a change in our overall community’s medical health or our ability to provide health care,” Huebner said.

Also, “a significant number of clustered outbreaks” experienced among both staff and students, “that cannot be mitigated with the normal protocols,” could trigger a change, Huebner said.

She noted, however, that the school division could respond to such outbreaks on a school-to-school basis. “This would vary from situation to situation. It could include classrooms, grade levels or entire schools,” she said.

POLICE CHIEF, from page 1 Some residents and organizations, including the regional immigrants’ right organization CASA in Action, called on the board to rescind the job offer and begin the hiring process again with more public engagement.

At-large Chair Ann Wheeler (D) said Thursday, however, that the board will not consider taking action to find a new chief.

“The board is standing by its decision,” Wheeler said.

In a closed session meeting held Tuesday, Nov. 24, the board interviewed four finalists from an initial pool of more than 50 candidates, according to a county news release.

The board ultimately voted 7-1 to hire Newsham, with only Supervisor Margaret Franklin, D-Woodbridge, voting in opposition.

The county issued a public notice about the closed-door interviews ahead of the Nov. 24 meeting, but it was not made clear that the board would make a hiring decision that day. Wheeler declined to say when the board was told the four finalists’ names but said all supervisors were provided information about them ahead of the interviews.

The board announced Newsham’s hiring at about 9 p.m. Nov. 24. The news came as a shock to residents of both Prince William County and Washington D.C.

Residents speak out against Newsham

Many of the young county residents who spoke at the Dec. 1 meeting said they were outraged to learn of Newsham’s hiring, including several who said they had participated in the protests in Washington D.C. earlier this year and witnessed and experienced police brutality.

Rowan Moore, a Coles District resident, said she and several of her friends were hit with tear gas and pepper spray while peacefully protesting in Washington D.C. this summer. Ivania Castillo, an activist with CASA in Action, said that she was “beat up” by police in Washington D.C. in November during a protest.

Esmerelda Flores, a county resident and an organizer with Prince William County Mutual Aid, accused the board of hiring a police chief who had teargassed “protesters in D.C. who were practicing their First Amendment rights.”

Others decried the lack of public input in the hiring process. John Steinbach, a Coles District resident, said his “jaw dropped” when he learned of Newsham’s hiring.

“We told you what we wanted in the chief of police,” Steinbach said. “But what happened was a relatively closed process where there were four people that were chosen with apparently a very short amount of time to research who was chosen and no opportunity for community input in the decision.”

Planning Commission revives rural area debate

By Daniel Berti

Times Staff Writer

After nearly a year-long hiatus, Prince William officials are once again debating possible changes to the county’s 117,000-acre “rural crescent,” which was the topic of a recent planning commission work session. It was the first time the panel has taken up the topic since the new, Democratic-majority board of supervisors took office in 2020.

During the Dec. 2 work session, Prince William County Planning Commissioners pressed county

Hiring process detailed

Wheeler said she disagreed that the hiring process did not involve citizen input, however. She pointed out that the county spent five months working with a consulting firm that conducted a citizen survey and police department survey prior to advertising the position.

County officials detailed the hiring process in a Nov. 25 press release. County Executive Chris Martino narrowed the candidate pool to the top six, who were invited to participate in Zoom interviews conducted by Martino and “a very diverse panel assembled for this purpose,” the release said.

The panel included senior county staff members Elijah Johnson, deputy county executive for human services; county attorney Michelle Robl; Commonwealth’s Attorney Amy Ashworth; Sheriff Glenn Hill; and three residents “active in the community and very familiar with law enforcement,” the release said. The residents’ names have not yet been released.

The panel evaluated information provided by the candidates, including “essay responses,” and evaluated each candidate’s answers to questions asked during the Zoom interview, the press release said.

The panel then recommended the four candidates who were interviewed by the board.

Wheeler said the county received additional input from the police de-

staff on the various preservation tools being recommended for the rural area, which include a Purchase of Development Rights ordinance, a Transfer of Development Rights ordinance, an Agricultural and Arts Overlay District and a “Conservation Residential” zoning classification that would allow for higher density development and public sewer in certain parts of the rural area provided most of the land on the property is put into conservation easement.

See RURAL AREA, page 7 partment’s Citizen Advisory Board, which includes representatives from about 20 local organizations.

“To say that there was no public input, I just don’t agree with that,” Wheeler said.

In response to criticism of Newsham’s time working with the Metropolitan Police Department, Wheeler said Newsham was “heavily involved in reforming the Metropolitan Police Department” in the late 1990s. She added that while serving as police chief, Newsham had made sure that the police department “reflected the demographics of the community that it served.”

The lack of diversity of the personnel of the Prince William County Police Department has been raised as an issue in the past by some county residents and the Prince William County branch of the NAACP. But Wheeler said she is taking “to heart” the comments of those who have spoken out against the police chief in recent weeks and aims to reassure residents that the new chief and the county’s police department is committed to building “community trust and transparency.”

“We are a county that has wonderful policies and procedures in place in our police department,” Wheeler said. “And [Newsham] will only enhance the outreach to the community from what we have now.”

Piedmont Journalism Foundation

Dear Readers,

PO Box 21 The Plains, VA 20198 https://piedmontjournalism.org info@piedmontjournalism.org

December 4, 2020

The past year—the beginning of Piedmont Journalism Foundation’s ownership of the Prince William Times/ Piedmont Media--has been a time of upheaval for the local community, and a time of particular importance for community journalism.

Our editors and reporters have worked tirelessly for the last nine months covering the local spread and impact of COVID-19 and informing residents about measures taken to cope with it. Leading up to the November elections, our papers provided profiles of local candidates as well as everything voters needed to know to cast their ballots amid the pandemic.

Along with these special 2020 topics, regular coverage continued on county issues, schools, businesses, transportation, social services, courts and crime, sports, and other subjects of interest to Prince William residents.

Also during the last two years, PJF supplemented the paper’s journalism by providing explanatory indepth articles Piedmont Media staff did not have the resources to report. These included a series on the ravages of the opioid epidemic on our communities and efforts to expand broadband internet to the rural reaches of our counties, which are not yet adequately connected. Links to PJF’s work can be found on the PJF website, http:// piedmontjournalism.org.

The Prince William Times and Piedmont Media have been able to survive and continue providing local news coverage despite losing much of our revenue when many local businesses, heavily hit by the pandemic, could no longer afford to advertise. Survival depended on a combination of major cost cuts at the papers, a pandemic-related PPP loan from the federal government, support from loyal advertisers, foundation grants to PJF and donations to PJF from local residents. The community support has been crucial and we are tremendously thankful for it.

As you are planning your year-end giving, we ask that you consider a donation to PJF. The new wave of COVID-19 is getting worse, and we need the support of residents like you to keep the newspaper and the vital local coverage it provides strong through and beyond this extended crisis.

With gratitude, The Board of Directors, Piedmont Journalism Foundation Bo Jones, Jessica Mathews, Georgia Herbert, Bob Dale, Mark Ohrstrom Piedmont Journalism Foundation is a 501(c)(3) public charity (IRS # 83-07859620), and your gift is fully deductible to the extent of the law.

SCHOOLS, from page 3 Another reason to change course would be “an inability … to staff for instruction or the safety of students,” or, finally, a rise in Centers of Disease Control and Prevention metrics “indicating that our risk threshold has reached the highest risk and it is absolutely necessary for the safety of our students,” she said.

Still, such occurrences might only mean changes for some schools, classes or grade levels, Huebner said.

Huebner added that the school division would also comply with any order from Gov. Ralph Northam to revert to virtual instruction.

Teachers, parents express concerns

Occoquan School Board Member Lillie Jessie peppered Walts and other school division officials about what they are doing to address staff concerns about safety. Potomac School Board Representative Justin Wilk asked about teachers’ concerns with difficulty accessing personal protective equipment and asked Walts to audit each school building’s supply, something Walts said he would look into.

Jessie asked how and when he would decide whether to shut down schools if the COVID-19 numbers become too high. Walts reiterated that the school division would consider all the factors Huebner outlined PITEK, from page 4 Regarding access to broadband internet, Pitek noted that many in the 31st District, which straddles Prince William and Fauquier counties, struggle with inadequate access to high-speed internet. Pitek said she knows both state and federal lawmakers have been working to create government grants to subsidize wireless and fiber connections but says those solutions have so far fallen short.

“It should be considered a utility,”

Prince William Times | www.princewilliamtimes.com | December 9, 2020

and added: “We believe we have a stronger method than anchoring [the decision] on a single metric.”

Several teachers spoke during citizen comment time to express concerns about the safety of in-school instruction. Some parents expressed frustrations with the pitfalls of hybrid instruction, which requires most teachers to teach students in the classroom while zooming with students learning virtually from home.

The school division now has more than 7,000 students learning inside school buildings, which include students in pre-K through first grade, as well as certain special education and English language learners.

High school students in some career and technical education classes are returning to schools for Monday sessions. Most regular education students are attending school two days a week, either on Tuesdays and Thursdays or Wednesdays and Fridays.

The school division is scheduled to return more grades on a staggered schedule in January and February.

A few speakers complained that the school division wasn’t bringing students back more quickly.

Maggie Hansford, president of the Prince William Education Association teachers’ union, again asked the school division to set clear parameters on when the COVID-19 metrics are too high to attend school in person.

“Have the courage to make a decision that won’t make everyone happy but that will keep everyone safe,” Hansford said.

High school teacher Brandie Provenzano said teachers do not necessarily have easy access to personal protective equipment, despite Walts’ and other administrators’ assertions that PPE is readily available.

“You probably don’t know this… because teachers and staff aren’t supposed to talk about it,” Provenzano said. “They’re supposed to quietly trudge through this unknown and often dangerous situation alone because that’s what they always do, right?”

Several elementary school principals spoke during the meeting and said things are mostly going well at their schools since the kindergarten and first-graders returned for hybrid learning.

Pressed by school board members, the principals acknowledged there is anxiety among staff members about the virus.

“Our teachers are scared. They do have anxiety. … I can’t change that, but I can be a listening ear. I can support them every step of the way,” said Deborah Ellis, principal of Minnieville Elementary. “They have real fears that everyone needs to hear.”

Walts urged teachers and parents to report any concerns about health and safety to school principals or

Pitek said of broadband. “I think the federal and state governments need to team up on this effort.”

Pitek earned her bachelor’s degree from Binghamton University and her master’s degree in public administration from John Jay College of Criminal Justice, both in New York. She now works as a project manager for Garud Technology Services, a Maryland-based government contractor.

ing to the Virginia Public Access Project.

Idris O’Connor, president of the Prince William Young Democrats, has also filed for the race but has said he is still deciding whether he’ll run. O’Connor is chair of the Prince William County Cooperative Council of Ministries and a member of the Prince William County Social Services Board.

In Virginia, it is against the law for members of the General Assembly to raise campaign funds while the legislature is in session. The next session is set to begin on Wednesday, Jan. 13, and is a “short session,” meaning it will last for at least 30 days unless extended by a twothirds vote.

Foy, 38, said the decision would allow her to run a “people-powered campaign to make the commonwealth work for all Virginians.”

In a memo attached to her announcement, Foy, a Democrat, cited the examples of a handful of other governors and candidates – including Democrat Stacey Abrams, whose 2017 bid for Georgia governor was unsuccessful – who also resigned their elected posts to pursue their states’ highest offices.

Foy’s announcement also took direct aim at former Virginia governor Terry McAuliffe, a fellow Democrat who is said to be mulling a run for their party’s nomination but has not yet formally announced his bid.

Foy, 38, said the decision would allow her to run a “people-powered campaign to make the commonwealth work for all Virginians.” “​Let’s be honest: the way our political system is set up enables people like Terry McAullife – rich political insiders with strong ties to the special interests – to run for higher office,” the memo said. “Jennifer didn’t choose fancy, high paying jobs that raked in millions to pad her own pockets. She chose to fight for working people as a public defender, magistrate judge and a foster mom.”

Foy is a former public defender who now works as a court-appointed defense attorney. She lives with her husband, Jeff, and their 3-year-old twin boys in Woodbridge. She has held the 2nd District House of Delegates seat since beating Republican Mike Makee with 63% of the vote in 2017.

The district leans Democratic – more than 58% of its voters are in eastern Prince William – but the seat was held by Republican Stafford Supervisor Mark Dudenhefer just prior to Foy’s election. Dudenhefer did not seek reelection in

So far, no Republicans have filed to run for the seat.

Guzman, a Woodbridge resident and a social services administrator, defeated longtime Republican incumbent delegate Scott Lingamfelter in 2017 to win the seat with 53% of the vote. Guzman then fended off a challenge from Republican D.J. Jordan, also of Woodbridge, in 2019. Guzman won that contest with about 52% of the vote.

2017 and instead ran for the Stafford Board of County Supervisors.

Raised by her grandmother in Petersburg, Foy became one if the first black female cadets at Virginia Military Institute before going onto law school.

Foy is known for her work to pass the Equal Rights Amendment in Virginia and for championing issues such as a public defenders’ office for Prince William County; raise the minimum wage; ending the suspension of driver’s licenses because of court costs and fees; and enhancing Virginia’s foster care system.

Foy is one of three Democrats who have so far announced their candidacies for the Democratic nomination to run for governor in 2021. The others are Virginia Sen. Jennifer McClellan of Richmond and Lt. Gov. Justin Fairfax.

On the Republican side, state Sen. Amanda Chase, of Chesterfield, and state Del. Kirk Cox, of Colonial Heights, have announced their bids for the GOP nomination. The Republican Party of Virginia decided over the weekend to nominate their statewide candidates via a convention instead of a state-run primary.

RURAL AREA, from page 4 The county’s recommendations are largely based on guidance included in the county’s “Rural Preservation Study,” a document commissioned by the Prince William Board of County Supervisors and published in 2014, as well as public input gathered from several community meetings held in 2019.

The county’s current zoning rules for the rural area were put in place in 1998 as a means of putting the brakes on suburban sprawl. The existing rules allow for only one home to be built per 10 acres and generally prohibit public sewer extensions. Since that time, agricultural and large-lot land has dwindled in the county, and much of it has been replaced by homes on 10acre lots.

According to county staff, there are fewer than 10,000 acres left in the rural area that are being actively used for agricultural purposes.

Some planning commissioners underscored the need to take action to avoid losing more farmland and open space to 10-acre residential lots. Private lots do not meet the county’s definition of open space that “preserves natural or cultural resources, provides for passive recreation, is used for cultivated fields or forests or exists in a natural and undeveloped state.”

“If we continue to do nothing, we’ll have one of the largest 10-acre subdivisions in Northern Virginia,” said at-large Planning Commissioner Don Taylor.

Others on the commission were skeptical of changing the current rural area zoning rules and echoed the concerns of some citizens and conservation groups who are worried that any changes to the current policy could lead to more residential and commercial growth in the rural area.

Brentsville Planning Commissioner Patty McKay said she is concerned that “we’re not respecting the majority of the citizen comments about minimizing any additional sprawl development in the rural area.”

As of 2015, the population in the rural area was about 27,000. Under the current zoning rules, the county is projecting the population to increase to 35,000 by 2040.

Prince William County Long Range Planning Director David McGettigan said in email Friday however that, if the rural plan is adopted, it would reduce the number of new homes that can be built within the rural area by about 1,000 units and reduce the projected 2040 population to around 32,000.

The Planning Commission has not yet scheduled when it will take a vote to recommend some or all of the rural area policies to the Prince William Board of County Supervisors. Once it receives a recommendation, it will head to the board for final approval.

GUEST OPINION

Exploiting cultural fissures is unraveling our social fabric

By Bob Lewis Don’t imagine for a second that electing a new president is going to close or salve the open wounds and raw nerves that the 2020 political campaigns exposed. Not even close.

Passions have not cooled from President-elect Joe Biden’s victory over President Donald Trump last month. That’s clear from Trump’s own tweets and statements alleging massive fraud — something officials in all 50 states and now his own loyalist attorney general dispute. It’s also clear from the death threats his followers have made against election officials.

“It’s gone too far. All of it,” Gabriel Sterling, a senior Georgia GOP election official, said during an emotional news conference last week.

Nor are we immune from the anger unleashed by this widening societal chasm, even in our own neighborhoods.

Recently, my wife and I were out for a Sunday afternoon walk when we heard the horn blasts of a car braking in the middle of the street in front of a house sporting Biden and “Black Lives Matter” signs. The driver, a 40-ish fellow with a crew cut, stopped in front of us and began shrieking. “All lives matter! What’s wrong with people? Alll liiives matterrrrr!” he bellowed out his window at two bewildered people.

So much for a relaxing Sunday stroll.

Clearly this was no ally of the BLM movement and, I strongly suspect, he did not vote for Biden. Perhaps his unprovoked behavior evidenced a cry for professional help.

Or maybe it’s just years of pent-up grievance nurtured by a steady diet of social media and cable news. The critical takeaway is this: America is profoundly riven by forces far deeper and personally held than anything one election can cause or can fix. In fact, if that encounter is any indication, the election and its continuing recriminations may have only exacerbated it.

Our politics has turned far more caustic than we could have imagined during the ’70s or even as late as President Ronald Reagan’s two terms. Though he was an unflinching conservative who Democrats swore would end the world, Reagan established a sunny sense of comity, civility and shared purpose that trickled down through American society.

Ideological rifts have widened between the two parties during the

past 25 years over policy positions, especially immigration, race-based inequity and public aid to those in need, according to a 2017 survey by the Pew Research Center.

In 1994, only 15 points split the opinions of those leaning toward the two major parties. By 2017, the Pew poll found, the margin had widened to 36 points. More telling were the subsets of partisans expressing very unfavorable views of their rivals: The number more than doubled among Democrats and nearly tripled among Republicans.

Most of the resentment was in place before Trump, but feelings have intensified under his watch.

Underlying it all is “identity politics” and a worsening culture war. It’s as though each side not only abhors the other’s politics, it believes their rivals are intrinsically malignant people.

In another era, before the demise of trusted information sources and the unchecked dissemination of conspiracies, it was easier to keep the fabric of society from unraveling.

Maybe that’s why Reagan could bring in a transformative brand of conservatism in 1980 and have the nation, including Democrats, respect his victory and afford him the benefit of the doubt. After eight years, the two sides were still on speaking terms, America’s essential institutions were healthy, and the Soviet Union was in hospice.

But it’s also because Reagan was Reagan and he set the tone.

He never labeled other Americans “enemies of the people” or instructed a violent right-wing group to “stand back and stand by.” He left office encouraging Americans to view their nation as “a shining city upon a hill,” not dreading a dark and uncertain winter of disease, death and discord.

At its heart, this isn’t a Democrats vs. Republicans problem, nor is it a liberals vs. conservatives dilemma. The problem is we’ve become a people predisposed — and actively prodded — to think the worst of one another and to act on those feelings, even on a street in a sleepy neighborhood on a peaceful Sunday afternoon.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

In support of letting kids learn at school I am writing in response to the article titled, “‘It was so good to have them back’: Mountain View principal describes her students’ return to school,” published in your newspaper on Nov. 14. I think that children having the ability to go back to school is extremely important, especially at a young age, and am glad the Prince William community is working toward this goal.

School, in a sense, is children’s safe place where they can expand their knowledge and enhance their interaction with others, which is something they most likely are not getting at home.

The social world is hard for children to adapt to, as it is for college students like myself, which emphasizes how important in-person learning is for those who are in

that stage of development. Although families can choose if their children attend school in person, there is mostly likely circumspection leading to their final decision. It is substantial to have that option, even if it is limited to two days a week.

A child’s mental health, development, and social interaction is at risk due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and recognizing the conscientious work behind the precautions that are in place to ensure health and safety should play a key role in the decision to send one’s child to school.

I am glad to see the forwarding enhancements on in-person schooling and hope to see it continue for our children’s overall benefit.

LEXI RUTT Gainesville

Slavery, roots of racism missing from high school history classes I am writing in response to the article, “State Commission recommends changes to how African American history is taught in Virginia schools,” published on Sept. 1. With all of the civil unrest that has happened in our country this year, your article really struck a chord with me. As a recent high school graduate, I can attest to the fact that our curriculum didn’t fully explore African-American history or even the key role that slavery played in the Civil War. When we marginalize the existence of slavery, we don’t address how oppressive and ugly it really was. Without this context, we can’t

fully understand the perspective of the African-American community. We learn about history because it shapes the present, and our country was built upon layers of racial bias that still exist in our community and institutions to this day. Institutional racism was the impetus for the most recent protests and social unrest. In order to eliminate prejudice in the future, we must first understand the roots of racism and examine how it contributes to our beliefs and actions today. This begins in history class.

Pearmund Winery opens new market, event space

By John Hagarty

Special to the Prince William Times

COURTESY PHOTOS

The Pearmund Farm Store is located at 6188 Georgetown Run Road, Broad Run.

Vinter Chris Pearmund is known for his stable of wineries and vineyards, but at heart, he’s a farmer. He doesn’t wield a pitchfork or sling bales of hay. His domain springs from the earth by converting vines into wine.

If that doesn’t sound like a conventional farmer, ask him about the weather and growing grapes.

That is if you have time to listen to his response.

Read: It’s not easy.

He now has a store that further reflects his farming bona fides and those of more than a score of other local tillers of the land and artisans. The establishment embodies “down home.”

The Pearmund Farm Store unwrapped its horn of plenty earlier this month. It sells hams, beef jerky, eggs, peanut butter, honey, jellies, jams, pecans, coffee, candles, soap, cider, kombucha, hot sauces, local art and more. Twenty-five vendors (and growing) keep the store stocked. Wine from the three Pearmund wineries is also for sale, of course.

Many of the products spring from Fauquier County’s artesian cornucopia, but they might hail from anywhere in the Old Dominion.

“We are trying to feature as many local products as possible,” said Megan Hayes, store manager. “There’s a lot of items we carry from Fauquier, but also the surrounding counties.”

Indoor and outdoor seating is provided, including a patio and front porch. Since the winery is a grape toss away, conventional wine tastings are not offered at the farm store. However, guests can order wine by the bottle for enjoyment on-site or off.

During the summer and fall months, fresh fruits and vegetables will be available, adding to what is already a market with depth.

“We’ve reached out to local farmers so the store

Bubble for 2?

By Robin Earl and Coy Ferrell Times Staff Writers

Tina Thorpe and Lisa Mele were enjoying lunch in front of Sunny’s American Grill on Main Street in Warrenton on a recent Thursday afternoon. In fact, they were enjoying themselves so much, they stayed and talked for two hours. It was a chilly day, but they were coatless and comfortable in their own “bubble.”

Since then, four other bubbles – transparent, plastic pop-ups big enough to encompass a six-person table and keep those seated warm -have appeared outside restaurants in Old Town Warrenton.

They are the first visible step in a Town of Warrenton initiative dubbed “Warm Up Warrenton” that aims help businesses devise creative ways to thrive this winter. It’s also a natural extension of the “Roll Out Warrenton” program the town council approved last summer, said Town Manager Brandie Schaeffer.

A bubble was offered to any restaurant in town that wanted one, she said. Based on the positive feedback, more will likely be purchased in the

Sunny’s manager Jaydee Dauz said that as of Nov. 19, about 10 customers had tried the bubble, and “they all loved it.” The restaurant has outside heaters for diners, but if the restaurant is able to get more bubbles, they may not use the heaters.

can become a market for their products,” said Pearmund. “During the winter, it will provide a venue for them to sell non-perishable items.”

The Farm Store is part of a five-bedroom, 4,000-square-foot farmhouse that sits on a low rise just before turning right into Pearmund Cellars winery. In keeping with Virginia’s legendary past, it comes with its own historic story.

The home sits on property that was birthed as a land grant in 1743 to a Colonel Harrison, who served in the Revolutionary War. He built a cabin on the site, and today the 277-year-old dwelling is the base of the farmhouse.

The home had been leased for years, but recently the tenant moved on, offering an opportunity for Pearmund further to accessorize his 30-acre estate with another guest attraction. Fifteen acres of Chardonnay grapevines grow nearby.

Upstairs, five rooms can be rented for private parties ranging in size from two to 12 people.

Guests pay at $100 “entry fee” that gets turned into a gift card that they can use in the store or at the winery, essentially making the room rental free.

Rooms “can be reserved exclusively for a small private party. We can provide food, and for three hours, you would have a parlor-like setting for family and friends,” said Pearmund.

With COVID-19 constricting the urge for public gatherings, reserving a room for a small private event allows folks to entertain in a public setting while feeling safe.

“It’s like going to visit grandma’s house in the country. You can bring your food, or we can provide it,” said Pearmund.

The store is at 6188 Georgetown Run Road, Broad Run, and is open seven days a week from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. For more information on the Pearmund Farm Store, drop by https://pearmundfarmstore.com/.

“The bubbles are just a starting point,” Schaeffer explained. “We’re encouraging businesses to think outside the box.” To that end, last month the town council directed staff to develop a grant program for retail, hospitality and food service businesses that is set to launch soon.

The grant program will be funded by about $200,000 freed up by CARES Act funds, and the first round of distributions, which will mostly likely be capped at $10,000 per business, will go out after Dec. 15, the deadline for applications. A second round of grant disbursements will go out after a second application period.

The money can be used for anything related to adapting services during the pandemic, such as improving outdoor dining options – “bubbles” certainly fall into this category, along with outdoor heaters -- and creating touchless ways to purchase goods from shops.

Warrenton Mayor Carter Nevill said he hopes the grants will help restaurants in particular create something good in a difficult situation and that diners will be willing to try something new.

“Winter is magical. This is an opportunity to embrace a whole different kind of dining,” he said.

Amid uncertainty, basketball practices open in Prince William County

By Peter Brewington Times Staff Writer

Basketball tryouts began Monday in Prince William County with administrators, players and coaches happy to be together as they attempt to embark on a season like no other.

Although new safety and sanitation measures have been enacted, the persistence of COVID-19 has observers wondering if the first games scheduled for Dec. 21 will happen.

Around the state many school districts have pushed back winter sports or canceled them.

“Fingers crossed,” said cautiously optimistic Unity Reed activities director Kevin Turner after one day of tryouts. “Many students are in surprisingly good condition, but others need work. We are currently doing no-contact drills so that could potentially delay some of the first games,” he said.

Turner reported lower basketball turnout on Monday, especially with the girls program, where just 10 girls showed up, although those numbers

could increase over the next few days of tryouts. “Our participation numbers are down quite a bit. We had about 30 boys eligible for tryouts on the first day and another six planning to come out Tuesday,” he said.

Unity Reed will host boys varsity and JV basketball and girls varsity basketball.

Basketball is the first of the winter sports to start with the 14-game regular-season schedule beginning Dec. 21. Practices for wrestling, gymnastics, indoor track, wrestling and sideline cheer begin Dec. 14.

New sanitation protocols

Prince William County Public Schools issued its own sanitation-heavy guidelines last week for basketball, which include no contact or scrimmaging, with players participating in groups of no more than five players.

Balls are being disinfected and players instructed to use an individual ball for individual drills. Coaches must wear masks at all times at

Other protocols include no use of locker rooms or classrooms. There will be a thorough disinfecting of everything in the gym between the end of one team’s practice and the start of another.

Prince William County and the City of Manassas will prohibit fans from athletic events at their schools.

20 districts cancel

According to the Virginia High School League, 20 school divisions out of 132 in the state and 37 public schools out of 318 have canceled their winter sports season.

The City of Alexandria is the only Northern Virginia school district to cancel winter sports, but locally the City of Winchester and Frederick County have delayed official tryouts for all five programs until Jan. 4.

Fauquier County has pushed back a week to Dec. 14.

LEGAL NOTICES

NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC OF 2020 RENEWABLE PORTFOLIO STANDARD (RPS) FILING BY VIRGINIA ELECTRIC AND POWER COMPANY D/B/A DOMINION ENERGY VIRGINIA CASE NO. PUR-2020-00134 • Virginia Electric and Power Company d/b/a Dominion Energy Virginia (“Dominion”) has submitted its 2020 Renewable Portfolio Standard (“RPS”) Filing. The Filing includes Dominion’s RPS Development Plan and requests for approval to construct new solar facilities and to enter into new solar power purchase agreements.

• Dominion requests approval of Rider CE with a revenue requirement of $10,575,000 over the 2021 rate year. According to Dominion, this amount would increase a typical residential customer’s bill using 1,000 kilowatt hours per month by $0.19.

• Due to the ongoing public health emergency related to the spread of the coronavirus, or COVID-19, the State Corporation Commission will hold a telephonic hearing in this case on February 12, 2021, for the receipt of public witness testimony.

• An evidentiary hearing will be held remotely on February 17, 2021, via Microsoft Teams, for the receipt of evidence of Dominion, respondents and Commission Staff.

• Further information about this case is available on the SCC website at: scc.virginia.gov/pages/ Case-Information.

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 the Virginia Clean Economy Act (“VCEA”), became effective on July 1, 2020. The VCEA, inter alia, establishes mandatory renewable energy portfolio standards (“RPS”) for Virginia Electric and Power Company (“Dominion” or “Company”) in new § 56-585.5 of the Code of Virginia (“Code”). Subdivision D 4 of Code § 56-585.5 requires Dominion to submit annually to the State Corporation Commission (“Commission”) plans and petitions for approval of new solar and onshore wind generation capacity (“RPS Filing”). The Commission must determine whether the RPS Filing is reasonable and prudent, given due consideration to the following factors: (i) the RPS and carbon dioxide reduction requirements in Code § 56-585.5; (ii) the promotion of new renewable generation and energy storage resources within the Commonwealth, and associated economic development, and (iii) fuel savings projected to be achieved by the plan. The Commission’s final order regarding any RPS Filing is required by Code § 56-585.5 D 4 to be entered by the Commission not more than six months after the date of such filing.

On October 30, 2020, Dominion submitted its RPS Filing to the Commission (“2020 RPS Filing” or “Petition”). The 2020 RPS Filing requests the Commission: (i) approve the Company’s annual plan for the development of new solar, onshore wind, and energy storage resources (“RPS Development Plan”) in connection with the new RPS program (“RPS Program”); (ii) grant certificates of public convenience and necessity (“CPCNs”) and approval to construct and operate three solar generating facilities totaling approximately 82 megawatts (“MW”) (“CE-1 Solar Projects”) pursuant to Code § 56-580 D and the Commission’s Filing Requirements in Support of Applications for Authority to Construct and Operate an Electric Generating Facility; (iii) approve a rate adjustment clause (“RAC”) to recover the costs of the CE-1 Solar Projects and related distribution and transmission interconnection facilities, designated Rider CE, pursuant to Code § 56-585.1 A 6 (“Subsection A 6”) and the Commission’s Rules Governing Utility Rate Applications and Annual Informational Filings; and (iv) make a prudence determination for the Company to enter into six power purchase agreements (“PPAs”) for the energy, capacity, ancillary services, and environmental attributes of approximately 416 MW of solar generating facilities owned by third parties pursuant to Code § 56-585.1:4 (“CE-1 Solar PPAs”).

RPS Development Plan The Company states that its RPS Development Plan reports on the Company’s progress toward meeting the solar, onshore wind and energy storage development targets outlined in the VCEA and presents the

Company’s development plan for solar, onshore wind and energy storage facilities through 2035. Including facilities that are in operation, under construction, or proposed for approval, including the CE-1 Solar Projects and the CE-1 Solar PPAs, the 2020 RPS Filing shows that Dominion has a total of 1,391 MW of solar and onshore wind construction and purchases as of June 30, 2020. For energy storage, the 2020 RPS Filing shows the Company has 16 MW of energy storage in operation, under construction, or in preconstruction.

The Company’s RPS Development Plan calls for additional investment in solar, onshore wind and energy storage in the short and long term. The Company states in furtherance of these plans, it will issue annual requests for proposals (“RFPs”) for development proposals and third party PPAs for new solar and onshore wind projects. The Company states that it also intends to issue annual RFPs for small-scale solar projects to support development of small-scale solar resources.

The Company calculated the projected incremental monthly bill impact associated with the RPS Development Plan and the RPS Program over the next 15 years for residential, small general service and large general service customers. The Company projects, for example, that the monthly bill of a residential customer using 1,000 kilowatt hours (“kWh”) per month will increase by approximately $39.02 by 2035 to reflect the incremental impact of the costs of the RPS Development Plan and the RPS Program. The Company notes that these bill projections are not final, and all customer rates are subject to regulatory approval.

CE-1 Solar Projects The Company seeks CPCNs and approval to construct and operate the CE-1 Solar Projects, which consist of three solar generating facilities: (i) the approximately 20 MW (nominal alternating current (“AC”)) Grassfield Solar Project located in the City of Chesapeake (“Grassfield”); (ii) the approximately 20 MW (AC) Norge Solar Project located in James City County (“Norge”); and (iii) the approximately 42 MW (AC) Sycamore Solar Project located in Pittsylvania County (“Sycamore”). According to the Company, the total estimated costs for the CE-1 Solar Projects are approximately $168.2 million, excluding financing costs, or approximately $2,051 per kilowatt at the total 82 MW (nominal AC) rating. The Company asserts that the CE-1 Solar Projects are needed to comply with the VCEA, to serve customers’ capacity and energy needs, and to comply with carbon regulations.

The Company states it selected the CE-1 Solar Projects from a 2019 RFP (“2019 Solar-Wind RFP”) for additional utility-scale solar and onshore wind generating facilities in Virginia. As proposed, the CE-1 Solar Projects would be composed of ground-mounted, single-axis tracking solar panel arrays with an expected operating life of 35 years. The Company states Grassfield is expected to be in-service by December 2021, and Norge and Sycamore are expected to be in-service by late 2022.

Rider CE In this proceeding, Dominion asks the Commission to approve Rider CE for the initial rate year beginning June 1, 2021, and ending May 31, 2022 (“Rate Year”). Pursuant to Subsection A 6, the Company seeks approval for its accrual of allowance for funds used during construction (“AFUDC”) of the CE-1 Solar Projects, and to recover the costs of the CE-1 Solar Projects and the related distribution and transmission facilities through proposed Rider CE. The costs of the CE-1 Solar PPAs will not be recovered through Rider CE. Pursuant to Code § 56-585.5 F, the Company proposes Rider CE to be applicable to all of the Company’s Virginia retail customers as a non-bypassable charge, irrespective of whether a customer purchases electric supply service from a competitive service provider (“CSP”), subject to two exceptions. The Company proposes to exempt a customer meeting the accelerated renewable energy buyer requirements pursuant to Code § 56-585.5 G and any customer with a peak demand in calendar year 2019 that exceeded 100 MW and that elected to purchase electric supply service from a CSP prior to April 1, 2019, pursuant to Code § 56-577 A 3.

The three components of the proposed total revenue requirement for the Rate Year are the Projected Cost Recovery Factor, the AFUDC Cost Recovery Factor and the Actual Cost True-Up Factor. Because the Grassfield solar project is projected to commence commercial operations during the Rate Year, the revenue requirement for the Rate Year includes separate pre- and post-commercial operations date (“COD”) amounts for Grassfield. The annualized Projected Cost Recovery Factor revenue requirement totals $8,109,000 and $8,478,000 for the pre- and post-COD periods, respectively. The Company’s proposed annualized AFUDC Cost Recovery Factor revenue requirement for the pre- and post-COD periods are approximately $3,220,000 and $1,557,000, respectively. Thus, the total annualized revenue requirement requested for recovery during the pre-COD period of $11,329,000, and the total annualized revenue requirement requested for recovery during the post-COD period of $10,035,000 will produce approximately $4,721,000 and $5,854,000 in pre- and post-COD revenues, respectively. Therefore, the

Company is requesting a total revenue requirement of $10,575,000 in Rider CE for service rendered during the Rate Year.

Sycamore Solar Project

Norge Solar Project

For purposes of calculating the revenue requirement in this case, Dominion utilized a rate of return on common equity (“ROE”) of 9.2%. This ROE is the ROE approved by the Commission in PUR-2019-00050.

If the proposed Rider CE for the Rate Year is approved, the impact on customer bills would depend on the customer’s rate schedule and usage. According to Dominion, implementation of its proposed Rider CE on June 1, 2021, would increase the bill of a residential customer using 1,000 kWh per month by approximately $0.19.

CE-1 Solar PPAs Prudence Determination In its 2020 RPS Filing, Dominion also seeks a prudence determination from the Commission with respect to six CE-1 Solar PPAs pursuant to Code § 56-585.1:4 H. The six CE-1 Solar PPAs consist of: (i) the approximately 20 MW (AC) Watlington Solar Project located in Halifax County; (ii) the approximately 20 MW (AC) Pleasant Hill Solar Project located in the City of Suffolk; (iii) the approximately 118 MW (AC) Chesapeake Solar Project located in the City of Chesapeake; (iv) the approximately 75 MW (AC) Wythe County Solar Project located in Wythe County; (v) the approximately 170 MW (AC) Cavalier Solar Project located in Isle of Wight County and Surry County; and (vi) the approximately 12.5 MW (AC) Rivanna Solar Project located in Albemarle County.

Grassfield Solar Project

Dominion asserts that the CE-1 Solar PPAs are needed to comply with the VCEA, to serve customers’ capacity and energy needs, and to comply with carbon regulations. According to the 2020 RPS Filing, the Company selected the CE-1 Solar PPAs from the same 2019 Solar-Wind RFP from which it also identified the CE-1 Solar Projects.

The 2020 RPS Filing states that the CE-1 Solar PPAs have a positive customer net present value when compared to market purchases. The Company further states that it allocates PPA costs between energy, capacity, and renewable energy certificates (“RECs”) based on their forward value at the time the PPA is executed. The Company states that the costs allocated to energy will be recovered through the fuel factor, the costs allocated to capacity will be recovered through base rates, and the costs allocated to RECs will be recovered through a separate RPS Program RAC. The allocation factors applicable to the CE-1 Solar PPAs are 71.9% to energy, 12.9% to capacity, and 15.2% to RECs. Interested persons are encouraged to review the Petition and supporting documents for the details of these and other proposals.

TAKE NOTICE that the Commission may apportion revenues among customer classes and/or design rates in a manner differing from that shown in the Petition and supporting documents and thus may adopt rates that differ from those appearing in the Company’s Petition and supporting documents.The Commission entered an Order for Notice and Hearing in this proceeding that, among other things, scheduled public hearings on Dominion’s 2020 RPS Filing.

OBITUARIES Wayne Elton Bradshaw Sr. Wayne Elton Bradshaw Sr. of Orlean, Va died December 3, 2020 at his home. He was born on January 23, 1958 in Alexandria, Va to the late Harry Elton Bradshaw Jr. and Helen Virginia Melton Bradshaw.

He is survived by his wife, Susan Poe Bradshaw, his mother, two sons Wayne E. Bradshaw Jr. of Manassas, Daniel K. Bradshaw (Jessica) of Rixeyville, a stepdaughter Jessica Beach of Rixeyville, a brother Brian K. Bradshaw (Helen) of Manassas, and a sister Rebecca Bearden of South Carolina. In addition, grandchildren include Ryann and Mason Bradshaw (Wayne Jr’s. children) and Harry, Lucas, and Thomas Bradshaw (Daniel’s children). He is also survived by many nephews, nieces, and close friends. Additionally, he is survived by his two beloved dogs, Abby and Lexie.

Known for being a hard worker, Wayne took pride in his performance over the years at Woodward Turf Farm, Bradshaw Hauling (selfemployed), SW Rodgers, and Newton Asphalt.

After a long hard battle of pancreatic cancer, Wayne passed peacefully surrounded by family at home. He was a loving husband, father, grandpa, and friend. He touched many lives throughout his life. His greatest passion was being in the driver’s seat of an 18 wheeler. Wayne was well known in the Northern Virginia area for his trucking skills. Many were amazed of his ability loading and unloading heavy equipment and how he had no fear “because the ground will stop you.” Fearless in life, he would tackle any challenge from broken equipment to downing a tree.

Wayne had more common sense than most when it came to everyday tasks. His family and close friends remember many good times and laughter during card games and hunting trips. We should all be so lucky to have known Wayne Bradshaw.

A Celebration of Life will be held at a later date.
