From Prince William police:
Ms. Seats is still reported as missing. Her family is out of the area, so there was a delayed reporting to us. Ms. Seats is believed to have lived in Prince William County for a short time, her last known address is here in Woodbridge, but when we checked the address, she no longer lives there. There was no forwarding address or any indication she remained in the County. We did take the report and listed her as missing since this was her last known area. There are no indications of foul play or that she is a danger to herself or others, or otherwise endangered.

The Prince William County Board of County Supervisors will address the county’s meals tax during the upcoming budget deliberations, according to Chair At-Large Deshundra Jefferson. The meals tax, enacted in 2022, has been a concern for local restaurant owners, some of whom are advocating for its repeal.
The proposed meal tax (also called the food and beverage tax) for Prince William County in FY2025 is projected to generate $42 million in revenue. This represents a $10 million increase from the previous year, reflecting a significant rise of 31.25%.
The tax has drawn strong reactions from the restaurant industry, where owners have repeatedly called for its abolition, arguing that it places additional strain on their already tight margins. Restaurant owners have pointed to the increased costs they’ve faced over the past few years, compounded by inflation and staffing shortages, making the meals tax particularly burdensome.
