The white flight from Petersburg absolutely happened, almost doubling Colonial Heights’ population, but it was incorporated 6 years before Brown so integration couldn’t have been the only reason for its existence.

Honestly I don’t see how they can realistically take a lane the full distance on any of the southern routes. Midlothian east of Belt is 4 lanes, Route 1 south of Chippenham is also 4. Make Route 1 a 2 lane road and see what happens when 95 shuts down and all the traffic dumps into it.

So I wonder what will become of that little triangle of land?

Reply to Sheetz on RT10 is gone by Zerochance76
It’s not simply being remodeled according the county’s plans in Accela. The entire site is being demoed and removed— building, canopy, tanks, and asphalt. A new Sheetz is being built with the pumps to the side of the lot instead of the front, and with the building offset to allow for a drive thru. Everything you see in the photo is headed to the landfill so Sheetz can get a DRIVE THRU. Most wasteful thing I’ve heard this week.

Raising Caines bought the Rite Aid property in Dec 2021. It’s not re-listed for sale so I would say it’s safe to assume it will be developed eventually.

Reply to comment by bentboybbz in Where to dispose of a broken window AC unit by JWyattMcC
R22 was installed in new systems as late as 2010. If the life of a unit on average is 15 years, with some lasting longer, it’s safe to assume there are still plenty out there kicking. Even R-410A, the most common today, it isn’t great for the ozone. It is banned effective Jan 1 2025.

Reply to comment by 1A4RVA in Dominion asks to reinstate surcharge for Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative, boosting bills by VCUBNFO
Dominion and AEP are highly regulated in Virginia. We don’t have a bad system if the SCC works properly— which may be a big “if” sometimes.

Probably downvoted because scavengers will release the ozone-depleting r22 prior to scrapping. Legitimate places that properly recover the refrigerant charge a fee to take the appliance.

The franchisor of BurgerIM ran off with all the company’s money and is hiding out overseas, leaving all franchisees orphaned without any support system. The local owner is the same but the “money problems” were not his.

If it’s not his cup of tea there are plenty of top notch sterile auditoriums in the county high schools.

Reply to comment by 55V35lM in Should Virginia help pay to rebuild Fox Elementary? What happens if lawmakers say 'no'? by CrassostreaVirginica
Months before this happened a certain alarm company that was part of this story but no longer exists upgraded the burglar alarm at work. They asked if they could have the remains of the old system because it was still in use in many RPS schools— and basically only there— and the parts were impossible to obtain.

This is not true. Due to the Byrd Road Act of 1932, the vast majority of roads in Virginia are maintained by the state directly.

My friend has a story about how his 60 year old parents ate at the restaurant and afterward thought it would be fun to go dancing downstairs. Didn’t turn out to be as much fun as expected.

Most daycare workers aren’t making 38k per year. Someone could come to your home and make more while you pay less.
