Beginning July 1, 2020, Virginia House Bill 1250, commonly known as the Community Policing Act, will become law. It requires local law enforcement agencies to collect and report certain data pertaining to drivers to the Virginia State Police during a motor vehicle (traffic) stop.
In Prince William County, some of this data was previously collected on stops that resulted in an arrest or the issuance of a Virginia Uniformed Summons (VUS).
A major healthcare provider in Prince William County and Manassas will resume regular procedures today.
Novant Health / UVA Health System Prince William Medical Center in Manassas and Haymarket Medical Center in Haymarket tells us:
They left the area. Now they’re back.
Police are now working to close a portion of U.S. Route 29 in Gainesville as protestors are filing down an exit ramp from Linton Hall Road and walking onto the six-lane thoroughfare that connects Interstate 66 and Charlottesville 81 miles to the south.
Construction on the Hilton Hotel in the town of Haymarket has been delayed due to the coronavirus pandemic.
The hotel was originally expected to open in early 2021.
Haymarket is welcoming five non-incumbent candidates to their town council after the Tuesday, May 19, election, including Kenneth Luersen who will be mayor.
Luersen beat out incumbent David Leake by 13 points. Leake has served as mayor since 2012.
The Novant Health UVA Health System will resume medically necessary, time-sensitive procedures.
Prince William Medical Center and Haymarket Medical Center will be rescheduling patients with postponed appointments and procedures. In addition, they will also provide imaging, labs, and other appointments to support these procedures.
A message board that reads “Vote #TeamHaymarket” has stirring up debate about what type of campaign signs are allowed in the town.
Haymarket resident Rebecca Smith originally posted a photo of the message board to Facebook, alleging the sign’s presence at the corner of Washington and Jefferson streets is a violation of Haymarket Town Ordinance 58-15.5(h) which prohibits electronic message boards.
She’s gone again.
During the Town Council meeting on Monday, May 4, Susan Edwards sent an email to the Council resigning from her position, just as she did in 2010.
