Summary

The Prince William-Manassas Regional Jail Board voted to approve a retirement resolution permitting Captain Robert Powell to purchase his duty weapon under the cited Virginia statute.
A resolution read aloud by a board member recognized Captain Robert Powell—or 35 years of service and stated that, "in accordance with Virginia State Code 59.1-148.3, purchase of handguns of certain officers allows Captain Robert Powell to purchase his duty weapon." The board sought a second; after a second was given the chair called for a roll-call vote.

The motion carried by roll-call vote with all members present voting in favor.
The resolution records Captain Powell's retirement date as April 30, 2025, and formally authorizes the purchase of his duty weapon consistent with the statute cited in the resolution text. The board offered verbal thanks and best wishes to Captain Powell and noted his planned retirement.
The action was a formal, recorded board resolution; no amendment to policy or additional funding was associated with the vote.
