The Questions:

1. What changes, if any, would you make to the current 10 acre minimum in the rural area?

2. Would you support Prince William County funding for a Purchase of Development Rights to encourage commercial agriculture and preserve open space in the Rural Area?

3. How would you increase commercial agricultural operations in the Rural Area, including wineries and breweries, to preserve open space?

4. As the county population increases, how will you increase the acreage of public parkland for ballfields and for passive recreational activities?

5. VRE has proposed to increase the number of trains running throughout the day, and also to extend its tracks to Gainesville/Haymarket. Which of those two options is your top priority?

6. Do you support the proposed Bi-County Parkway? The Bi-County Parkway is a 10-mile highway segment of the 45-mile long corridor that would connect I-95 in Prince William County to the back of Dulles Airport in Loudoun County.

7. In the update of the Economic Development Chapter of the Comprehensive Plan, would you consider it a higher priority to improve rail and bus transit capacity in order to attract businesses to Prince William, or would you prefer to rezone acreage to permit more development?
