Memo to the Prince William County Planning Commission,
This evening, you will be discussing the fate of Purcell Road and the Purcell Road Widening Project. While I live in “the neighborhood”, and naturally don’t want to see this local treasure covered with asphalt, I would like to bring a larger issue to your attention.
FROM POLICE REPORTS
The Prince William County Police Department is asking for the public’s help in providing information about a robbery which was reported to have occurred at Super Check Cashing in the [Manassas] area of Prince William County.

Police said the 23-year-old victim of Triangle rode with a 42-year-old man from Fredericksburg in a car driven by a 47-year-old woman to Graham Park Court just before 5 p.m. Monday. Police said the driver picked up the 23-year-old woman and 42-year-old man at Dumfries Shopping Center on U.S. 1.
WOODBRIDGE, Va. — While a new Potomac Nationals stadium may not be official – leaders in Prince William County are moving ahead with plans to build a parking garage for the planned structure.
A request for $5 million from Virginia’s Transportation Partnership Opportunity Fund is expected to be approved today by the Prince William County Board of Supervisors. With this money, construction of a 1,250-space parking garage could begin, and those spaces would serve shoppers at Potomac Town Center at Stonebridge – home to Wegmans grocery store — Potomac Nationals game time fans, and commuters who would park during the day and leave before games begin, officials said.
