A public meeting will be held Thursday, November 9, at the existing senior center, 13850 Church Hill Drive, just off Prince William Parkway, at 1 p.m. It's one of two meetings the government has held to solicit feedback about the new center.
So far, the county has not released conceptual drawings of a new center, said where it could be built, or what amenities it would include. All of that is expected to be unveiled at a Board of County Supervisors meeting in December.

The Prince William Board of County Supervisors raised its Intergovernmental Support Agreement with the base to $5 million, up from $2 million, allowing the county's department of public works to work on additional projects on the base while lessening Quantico's reliance on the Federal Government's procurement process.
The change means more small projects like procuring additional right of way, tree clearing, road repairs, miscellaneous brick repairs, and other smaller projects could be completed sooner than later.

WOODBRIDGE -- Prince William County officials today will sign off on a 50-year right of way plan to build new segments of the Potomac Heritage Scenic Trail.
The new trail sections will run through the Occoquan Bay and Featherstone national wildlife refuges in Woodbridge, adding to some 13 miles of the trial already constructed in the county.
When completed, up to 45 miles of the trail along the Potomac River between the Chesapeake Bay and Pennsylvania will traverse the county.
