“Companies seek Prince William as a development destination rather than economic development officials luring them in, Winn said. The economic development office simply helps companies become established once they’ve received the green light from elected officials.”
Winn also “said the that election’s results bear no impact on how her office plans to conduct business moving forward.” That aligns with Chair Ann Wheeler’s apparent intent to ignore the electorate and continue her overly solicitous attitude toward the data center industry unfettered. Her fealty to the lords commerce transcends any obligation to those she was elected to represent.
Stafford County Economic Development: “Process Over Prize Academy, a dynamic and innovative martial arts academy, is thrilled to announce its grand opening in Stafford with an official ribbon-cutting ceremony that was held on Saturday, July 8, 2023, at the business storefront located at 11 Hope Road, Suite 207 Stafford.”

We believe that Jiu-jitsu has the power to transform lives, and we are excited to embark on this journey with our students.”
