Tomorrow, Tuesday, April 18, 2023, we’ll see what Prince William County Supervisors leave in and what they cut out.

During a series of back-and-forth discussions and straw polls, supervisors will decide what programs to fund in the upcoming Fiscal 2024 budget, which takes effect July 1, 2024. You can watch the meeting online here.

On April 16, 2023, Stafford Sheriff’s animal control deputies were called for a report of two butterballs in the street.
On April 16th Deputy A.C. Wolford responded to Olde Forge subdivision for a livestock in the roadway complaint. He arrived to find these two turkeys strutting through the area. We would hate for Butterball and the Gizzard of Oz to go to “waist.” The owner can contact Animal Control to claim their feathered friends (or we will hold them until the middle of November). Don’t we have the “baste” Animal Control Officers?
Someone drove into the Occoquan town post office today, at 202 Mill Street, spelling trouble for town residents who must come to the post office to pick up their mail.
