Fredericksburg officials will once again face the public as the city council is set to resume in-person public meetings on May 25.
Attendees must wear a mask, according to a city spokeswoman, and those who want to watch the meeting from home still have that option.
I wanted to share this update regarding the May 25th Council Meeting:
Fredericksburg City Council in-person meetings resume, but with continued remote access for participants and viewers.
The City Council will hold this meeting in person, and in-person attendance by members of the public is permitted, within the seating capacity of City Council Chambers with social distancing measures in place. Face coverings are required for all attendees. Due to the reduced seating capacity and the continued presence of COVID-19 in the community, the public is encouraged to access the meeting through the broadcast on Cox Channel 84 and Verizon Channel 42. The meetings can also be viewed on our regionalwebtv.com/fredcc or accessed through Facebook at www.facebook.com/FXBGgov
Face covers are required for everyone during the meeting, regardless of vaccination status. More information is online here: https://www.fredericksburgva.gov/DocumentCenter/View/19392/2021-05-19-Face-Mask-in-Public-Buildings-PDF

The masking requirement comes after Gov. Ralph Northam dropped his mask mandate for vaccinated individuals. He’s also set to drop all social distancing requirements on May 28.
On the agenda for the upcoming meeting: A discussion on what types of manufacturing will take place in the city’s new creative maker district.

Inspired by local physicians who were among the nation’s first to adopt the concierge medicine model, Northern Virginia is now a hub for its surging popularity. These leading physicians are redefining the patient experience with same-day appointments, direct availability, unhurried visits, and deeply personalized care:
After almost 40 years in practice, Manassas-based Internist John Cary, MD’s change to concierge medicine enabled focused attention for each individual, and the launch of his innovative diet program for those with type 2 diabetes. “The goal is to promote enough weight loss to reach an acceptable A1C of 6% with no medication,” he explains. “Achieving that can take several months of very close follow up. As I tell my patients, we are in this together.”
Jay Tyroler, MD considers his patients quite literally as family. “I believe there’s nothing more honorable than helping patients when they’re sick, or scared, or feeling vulnerable, and I care for them exactly as I would my loved ones.” Whether for a specialist referral, urgent health issue or ongoing follow up, “My patients know I’m always just a phone call away.”
