Dumfries Proposes Changes to Town Charter

By Uriah Kiser
Dumfries is Virginia's oldest continually chartered town.

The Dumfries Town Council seeks to amend the town’s charter, which dates back to 1749, making Dumfries the oldest continuously chartered town in Virginia. The proposed changes were discussed during the council’s July 3 meeting.

According to a town spokeswoman, the amendments, which must be approved by the Virginia General Assembly in Richmond, are primarily administrative and aimed at promoting greater clarity concerning the existing text. One substantive proposal would empower the Mayor to declare a local emergency if neither the director of emergency management nor the town council is available.

A subcommittee of the House Rules Committee killed a resolution proposed by Delegate Candi Mundon King (D-Woodbridge, Stafford) resolution called the STARR Alert, which aims to notify auto repair shops of hit-and-run crashes, prompting the owners to be on the lookout for drivers that fled the scene of crashes might seek vehicle repairs.
