Spotsylvania County resident Angie Craddock often glances at the 12.5 acres of land on Five-Mile Road, knowing it likely won’t remain undeveloped for long. Craddock accepted that developers would eventually want to construct homes on the property. However, a proposal that includes a Sheetz convenience store and other commercial space in addition to 40 townhomes never crossed her mind.

Retaining Wall Variance Under Close Scrutiny at Town Planning Commission Work Session

According to an AI overview, a retaining wall’s height directly dictates the lateral earth pressure, structural requirements, and legal compliance needed to keep it from failing. Soil pressure against a wall does not increase linearly; it grows significantly deeper down. Doubling a wall’s height more than doubles the stress and overturning force it must resist. Taller walls trap more groundwater and moisture, increasing the risk of bulging, cracking, or catastrophic collapse if drainage is inadequate. All of this was relevant to the Town Planning Commission at the November 4 work session as the commissioners reviewed a design-stage assessment for a variance that would increase the maximum height of a retaining wall from 6 to 10 feet. Geotechnical testing, construction inspections, and final certification are next steps for this project on Royal Lane and will be reviewed by the County.

InsideNoVa celebrates ribbon-cutting for new Manassas office

InsideNoVa held a ribbon-cutting for its new Manassas office on Thursday with the Prince William Chamber of Commerce and city leaders. The nearly 60 people who attended were able to tour the new space, meet InsideNoVa team members and enjoy networking and refreshments. InsideNoVa moved to the new office in May; it previously was in Woodbridge. "It’s important for us to be here because not only are we within walking distance of the courthouse and City Hall, which is great for our reporters, but we are centrally located in Prince William County – our primary coverage area," publisher Bruce Potter told attendees. Potter noted that the move was one of three major changes for the local news company this year - the others being its conversion to a new web platform and its expansion into offering targeted digital marketing solutions for local and regional businesses. Prince William Chamber of Commerce CEO Kristi Black and Manassas Mayor Ralph Smith also spoke during the event.
