Delegate Bob Marshall and Senator Colgan Join Supervisor Stirrup and Candidate Candland in the Fight to Protect Our Safety

Prince William County political powerhouses Senator Charles J. Colgan (D), and Delegate Bob Marshall (R), have added their names along side Gainesville Supervisor John Stirrup and Gainesville Supervisor candidate Pete Candland in the fight to make our streets safer from the incessant stream of dump trucks on Catharpin Road.


Senator Colgan is the senior member of the Virginia State Senate, and he has been a strong advocate for the Oak Valley community in the past, as well as other HOA's in the Gainesville area.

Delegate Bob Marshall is a fearless advocate for the issues he takes on, and Bob has agreed to help with protecting the safety of drivers on Catharpin Road.  He will be a great spokesperson for our effort to resolve the ongoing problem with the dump truck traffic to the Smith Dump.




Supervisor Stirrup has been our champion from day one on this issue, and the entire community owes him a huge thank you.  His tireless advocacy and strong voice on the Board of Supervisors has kept the heat on a bureaucracy that would rather look the other way.




Gainesville Supervisor candidate Pete Candland has been the first candidate in the Supervisors race to step up and publicly call upon VDOT to close the Smith Dump access road, and to stop the dump truck traffic that endangers the public.  We hope other candidates will have the courage to join Pete in helping us with this fight, no matter how powerful or how politically connected the Smith dump operators are.
