Following publication of the original story, county spokesman Jason Grant asked that certain points that were made in the article be clarified.

“The question I think was, ‘Can they talk about their salaries in closed session?’ And so, to that question, yes – they can talk about salaries in the closed session. Now the specifics the discussions may entail – that I can’t comment on. But that’s why they have legal counsel, so that certain discussions in closed session remain appropriate to the exemption,” said Grant.

Remake Dale City: How the ‘Neabsco Greenway’ will bridge the gap

By Uriah Kiser

When I was a child, the woods behind Andrew Leitch Park in Dale City provided a great escape from the real world of a 9-year-old boy.

My imagination ran wild in those woods. We went hiking, used rope swings to cross a creek, built forts and treehouses, and always watched in despair when the creek flooded and washed them away. The fun part was building them all again.

Remake Dale City: How new signs, bus stops could help create a sense of place

By Uriah Kiser

A plan for a reimagined Dale City calls for neighborhoods that are friendly to pedestrians, bus riders, and drivers.

These new neighborhoods must have better crosswalks so people can easily cross Dale City’s main thoroughfare Dale Boulevard. And while there’s already commuter and local bus service along the corridor, a plan calls for even more transit service along Dale Boulevard.
