congrats, matt!

mattBresslerGradGood neighbor and former board member Matt Bressler, a 19-year veteran of the Loudoun County Sheriff’s Office, graduated last week from the the 53rd session of the Virginia Police Chiefs Foundation Professional Executive Leadership School (PELS). 1st Lt. Bressler serves as the Assistant Commander of the Operational Support Division.

The PELS program is conducted in cooperation with the University of Richmond. This program is designed for individuals who currently serve in command/executive-level positions within their agencies. The curriculum is liberal arts/humanities-based and focused on the study of leadership at an advanced level. The objective of this program is to acquaint participants with best leadership practices, challenge them to reflect upon their leadership competency, and examine ways of achieving both personal and professional growth.

The classes are held on the campus of the University of Richmond, and faculty members from the University of Richmond in Richmond, Virginia teach the classes. They are drawn from the Robins School of Business, the Management Institute, the Jepson School of Leadership Studies, and several other schools within the university.

LoCo Aids Haulin’Trash Customers

Loudoun County will be offering a temporary trash drop-off service on the next two Saturdays to Loudoun residents who were customers of Haulin’ Trash. The household waste-hauling company informed customers earlier this week that it would cease operations in northern Virginia effective December 1, 2022. As a result of the unexpected announcement, some customers, primarily in the eastern part of Loudoun County, have trash piling up outside their homes. continue reading >>

Good News on Rt7!

One of our neighbors received the following reply from our County Supervisor:

Thanks for your email and the attached letter.

As the Sterling District representative, the safety and wellbeing of Sterling residents is a top priority for my office. We certainly heard the community’s feedback and concerns loud and clear when we met a few months back. Based on the feedback that has been received, the removal of the traffic signal and implementation of a right in-right out access point has been removed from the proposal.

County staff and engineers for the Route 7 project are currently working to reevaluate the intersection and develop new proposals to present to the Cardinal Glen community. As I have expressed to other Cardinal Glen residents who have reached out on this issue, once staff has developed new options to consider, we will indeed follow up with the community. However, please understand that this will take time as this project is a Countywide undertaking that will not happen overnight, and we are only in the beginning stages. Rest assured that when the time comes to present alternatives, we will be in contact with the community.

Thank you again for your email and for expressing your concerns.
