Whill Stanley, age 6, leads the pledge at the jail opening ceremony held for a new regional facility set to open July 1. Officials and residents attend the ribbon cutting and see the 12 page 2 section edition for details.
The 375-bed RSW Regional Jail in Warren County near Front Royal opened with a ribbon cutting led by Judge Dennis L. Hupp. He praised the design, security features, and the joint effort of three counties Rappahannock Shenandoah and Warren to deliver a modern facility that will receive inmates next week and serve goals of punishment rehabilitation and deterrence while maintaining human dignity. Warren County Supervisor Doug Stanley called the building beautiful on the outside and functional inside and noted it would not look like a prison.
The Warren County Board of Supervisors unanimously tabled Todd and Brenda Peal gift permit request for a Skyland Estates short term rental citing unresolved legal questions about the permit process. County Attorney Blair Mitchell did not confirm link to a late Tuesday appeal by lawyers for Tareq Salahi whose similar request had been denied.
