I'm newer to Virginia and contested my increased property taxes based on some major foundation issues I discovered. PWC accepted my application (came to inspect the damage- huge mistake on my part) but also came at me with a vengeance with a violation notice, threats of civil, and criminal charges and a warrant!!! This was all at one time so is absolutely retaliation but I guess it's allowed.

My question is, should I be looking for an attorney or legal guidance here? This feels like abuse of power.

Virginia is "buyer beware " so I'm being held responsible for things that were build before I purchased. Most of us home owners had to waive inspection (and overbid) to buy, I did get a Survey and everything was accounted for on the survey.

I had a licensed contractor here today and mentioned it to him, he was shocked. He said permits are NOT required for some the small upgrades I made but I must have pissed someone off.

Hi,

A friend is moving to Woodbridge and she doesn't know which school is better for her kids.

I did some research and seems that Lake ridge is better with 5 stars reviews and no shootings, found Enterprise with 4 stars reviews and a shooting on 2022.

I wanted to know if that information is accurate and your thoughts about those schools in order for her to choose the best option.

Thank you!

I get they think the car is connected. But are these homes being picked at random I wonder.

Sad.

I’m trying to locate a witness in a legal case. I got information that he is living in “the jungle” off of route 1 in Woodbridge. Does anyone know what specific homeless camp this is?

hi everyone! would anyone know of any tennis clubs that have adult lessons in the area? i’m 23 and just moved back to the area after five years, and i’d love to meet new people while also being active and trying a new sport! location-wise, i live in prince william county, but not opposed to driving elsewhere for classes. thank you in advance for your suggestions! 🎾🤍

Ive lived all over the country, and a few places in this state. Even though PWC seems to have nice parts. It seems like a very trashy county overall. Litter all over, run down looking businesses, abandoned homes or buildings on main roads in commercial area. Crime seems to be going up. my biggest concern living here is the county board doesn't seems to have any GOOD plans for fixing this.

as it stands now, it appears things will only get worse, and not better.

All though I move often for work this is the first time Im considering moving because of the poor outlook and conditions of an entire county.

Is anyone else being harassed by PWC school officials about unexcused absences?

In this case we got a nasty letter about truancy laws and legal action for our student missing 3 days the week after Thanksgiving for travel. The absences were pre-arranged but the school decided it would not accept the reason.

This is a straight A student who is in mostly advanced classes. Why are they needlessly antagonizing parents?

DUMFRIES, VA — A DUI checkpoint is coming to Dumfries on Wednesday night. The Prince William County Police Department said they would run the sobriety checkpoint from 8 p.m. to 12 a.m.

Authorities did not specify the exact area of Wednesday's checkpoint, but they said it would be in the eastern district of the county, which includes Dumfries. The Prince William County Police department regularly conducts checkpoints throughout the county in an effort to discourage drunken driving among residents.

Please let me know if this isn't allowed. This is a long shot, but I'm hoping someone saw something.

On Friday, January 13, 2023, I was heading to Virginia to visit family when I was hit by a driver who fled. The driver was in a lifted dark colored 1500 Chevrolet Silverado with large tires (according to the witness). They slammed their truck into the side of my car after tailing me sending my car flying across the road. They'd been driving sporadically on 95 between approximately 11:15-11:35am.

Again, a long shot, but if anyone was driving on 1-95 South last Friday between Woodbridge, VA and Fredericksburg, VA and saw the driver or captured their plate. Please let me know. Thank you in advance!

I don’t know how to start the process of bringing the plastic bag tax here. But wanted to see if people are interested in doing so. Here’s the link showing what Fairfax County implemented https://www.fairfaxcounty.gov/environment-energy-coordination/disposable-plastic-bag-tax-fairfax-county
