$1 million earmarked to replace recently-renovated library, senior center Potomac Community Library in Woodbridge.
Prince William County earmarked nearly $1 million as a downpayment to replace the Potomac Community Library and a senior center.
Both buildings are less than 50 years old and are located in Woodbridge.
The county tells us:
The Potomac Library is well maintained with a roof that was replaced in 2013. In 2011, an enhanced garden was put in, but the building, which opened in 1975, is beyond its projected useful lifespan.
The Potomac Community Library also lacks sufficient meeting space for community events and has insufficient space for the public to access computers.

New fines imposed for failing to register car, show license plates
Prince William County wants its money.
Today, the Board of County Supervisors voted to approve a new tax-evader program that imposes an annual $100 license tax on owners of motor vehicles that do not display current Virginia license plates and a $250 penalty on owners who fail to timely register their vehicle.
“This is long overdue,” said Neabsco District Supervisor Victor Angry. “We all have to play by the rules, and there are a lot of people who are breaking the rules.”
State law allows the county to create such an ordinance. The county set the penalities to the highest that the law allows.
