Quantico Marine Corps Base could soon get more local help for public works projects on base.

The Prince William Board of County Supervisors raised its Intergovernmental Support Agreement with the base to $5 million, up from $2 million, allowing the county's department of public works to work on additional projects on the base while lessening Quantico's reliance on the Federal Government's procurement process.

The change means more small projects like procuring additional right of way, tree clearing, road repairs, miscellaneous brick repairs, and other smaller projects could be completed sooner than later.
