Developers Target Vint Hill Corridor for Over 3,000 New Homes by 2031
Stanley Martin and two other developers are moving forward with plans to build over 3,000 homes along Vint Hill Road in Nokesville. The projects, expected to be completed by 2031, have sparked concerns over traffic, school capacity, and the erosion of the area's rural character. Key infrastructure upgrades, including road widening, are planned, but residents and officials want assurance that developers will bear the financial burden. Additional community meetings are scheduled for April to address ongoing concerns. (Inside NoVa)

Itβs part of a broader plan that includes another center already under construction in Woodbridge. (PW Times)
Community Urged to Help Crack 1999 Homicide as Anniversary Passes

The Cold Case Unit is revisiting the 1999 murder of Russell Raymond Martin, found dead from blunt force trauma in his Triangle home. Separately, officers are probing a shooting outside a Woodbridge sports bar that left a man injured and the suspect fleeing on a motorcycle. Both cases remain open, with police urging anyone with information to come forward. (DC News Now)
