No. 25-071. The Joint Interjurisdictional Ad Hoc Committee will convene as needed and at the request of Prince William County, City of Manassas and/or City of Manassas Park elected officials.
The Joint Interjurisdictional Ad Hoc Committee is intended to foster communication between jurisdictions for the betterment of Prince William County as a whole, and for the two cities, through informative and cooperative Committee meetings. The Committee meetings will provide transparency and promote mutual understanding between the governing bodies and present more opportunities for the sharing of information.
The Joint Interjurisdictional Ad Hoc Committee shall be comprised of two (2) members from each jurisdiction, for a total of six (6) regular members, with one (1) alternate from each jurisdiction. The membership from Prince William County shall include the Chair of the Board, and the Board shall annually elect the additional member and alternate.
Key topic areas of the Joint Interjurisdictional Ad Hoc Committee may include: 1) Shared Services Agreements, 2) Population Health and Social Services Coordination, 3) Housing Policy, 4) Joint Economic Development Opportunities, and 5) Infrastructure and Facilities Planning.
As the Joint Interjurisdictional Ad Hoc Committee will be a separate public body, meetings of the Committee are subject to the open meetings requirement of the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA). The Committee will refrain from taking action on any item being presented or discussed, but may make recommendations to the respective governing bodies. If a decision or action is necessary, the Board is the appropriate body to make the decision affecting the Board or act accordingly at a regularly scheduled Board meeting for Prince William County.
