“The Prince William County School Board is expected to amend the school calendar at its Jan. 17 meeting to close schools for the presidential primary in March,” reports Emily Seymour at Insidneova.com.
Hey everyone, here is a quick update on some things we’re working on at potomaclocalnews.com.
We start with breaking news, as Stafford County has just issued a boil water advisory for residents in the northern part of the county.
Stafford County Government: “Stafford County Utilities has issued a boil water alert for areas in the northern part of the county due to complications from a water main break last night after heavy rainfall. Water main breaks typically result in shifts in water pressure, which could lead to system contamination. Out of an abundance of caution, authorities strongly advise residents to boil water or use bottled water for consumption. There is no current evidence of contamination of drinking water. However, when pressure levels drop in larger areas of the system, Virginia Department of Health protocols call for additional testing that can take three to five days to complete.”
“Customers may visit Stafford County Utilities website to determine if their address falls in the affected area. Customers possibly affected will have also received a direct notification. Stafford County has provided an interactive map or application below in which residents can input their addresses to see if they fall within the Boil Water Alert areas. Residents may call the Utilities Department at (540) 658-8616.”
“Jefferson, D-At Large, shared her vision for the county’s future during the supervisors’ first meeting of the new year. In the new term, Jefferson said she’s hopeful the board can come together and collaborate with respect for one another to “better govern,” reports Shannon Clark at the Prince William Times.
