MANASSAS — When our student reporter, Malachi, interviewed Manassas Fire Chief Rob Clemons, he learned Clemons watched the TV show “Emergency” every week, “religiously.”
The 1970’s drama chronicled the lives of paramedics and firefighters in the Los Angeles area.

STAFFORD — Property owners in Stafford County could see a $120 increase in their property tax if some county leaders have their way April 16.
That’s when the Stafford County Board of Supervisors is set to approve its fiscal year 2020 tax rate. Currently set at .99 cents per every $100 of assessed property value, the proposed rate is $1.03 per every $100.
The preceding weather forecast is from the National Weather Service Baltimore/Washington, D.C. office in Sterling.
STAFFORD — (Press release) The Stafford County Board of Supervisors identified healthy growth as a priority last fall when they adopted Stafford’s first-ever Strategic Plan and Stafford County 2040 Vision for the Future.
The Strategic Plan calls for actionable steps over the next three years to identify and execute growth management strategies that align with Stafford’s Comprehensive Plan without negatively impacting taxation. Citizen input is a critical element in the deliberations. Roundtable discussions and public meetings are the next steps in Stafford’s healthy growth analysis.
