Woodbridge, Va. –– Supervisor Frank Princpi will once again take to the phones to get a feel for what’s on his constituents’ minds.
The elected official will hold his second telephone town hall meeting at 7 p.m. Wednesday April 14.
Principi says 10,000 residents will receive an automatic call from his office that night, and those who wish to remain on the line to ask a question of the supervisor may do so.
Those who remain on the line will be added to a queue and will listen other ask questions as they wait for their time to speak.
Those who would like to participate in the conference may call ahead of time for more information, at 703-792-4646 or by going to the supervisor’s website.
Pricipi’s last tele-town hall took place in January, and many of the issues discussed were he loss of commuter parking at Potomac Mills mall and about day laborers who stand at the corner of Prince William Parkway and U.S. 1.
Some who questioned the supervisor wanted him to move the day laborer site, saying it was unappealing to have so many people standing at a high-traffic intersection.
Principi said he, along with the county, had few options to remove the day laborers from the post because they stand next to a convenience store that sits on private property.
During the last tele-town hall, fewer than 10 questions were answered during the conference. Principi invited those who did not have their questions answered to post them to his website to be answered at a later time.
