The Manassas City Council on Monday night unanimously approved renaming Manassas Regional Airport to Washington Manassas Airport as its commercial and ticketing name, moving forward with a rebranding effort supported by airport stakeholders but met with mixed reactions from some residents.
In a 7-0 vote, the council adopted Resolution R-2026-881. The airfield itself will continue to be known as Harry P. Davis Field, and the airport code HEF will remain unchanged. Officials estimated the cost of the name change at $100,000, to be funded entirely from the airport enterprise fund (fees collected at the airport) with no impact on the city’s general fund or taxpayers.

Prince William County police responded around 10:23 p.m. April 13 to the area of Centreville Road and Leland Road near Manassas. Investigators said the boy had left his home and was running in the roadway, crossing Centreville Road northbound, when a 2012 Honda Civic hit him. He was not in a crosswalk or safe crossing area at the time. Bystanders performed CPR until the child was taken to a hospital, where he later died.
The driver, identified as Jacinto Josue Ezequiel Jacinto Morales, 30, of Centreville, stayed at the scene and was not hurt. He faces a charge of driving without a license, third offense. His court date is pending, and he was released on a summons. The boy’s name is not being released because of his age.
