The Prince William Conservation Alliance on Wednesday will be talking about the Rural Crescent

It’s an area of land from Gainesville to Quantico that the Prince William County Board of Supervisors in 1998 designated as an urban growth boundary to keep the county’ s growth in check, and mostly located in its more dense central and eastern sections.


A plan to seek requests for proposals to outsource the management of Prince William County’s Public Libraries is dead.

The county’s Board of Supervisors voted 7-1 on Tuesday to kill the measure proposed this past spring by Gainesville Supervisor Peter Candland. He gave the dissenting vote.
