Commission adopts County facilities naming and renaming policy

Powhatan County Parks and Recreation Advisory Commission · August 6, 2026

Summary

Powhatan's Parks and Recreation Advisory Commission adopted recommended updates to the county's Naming and Renaming County Facilities & Parks Policy, approving the implementation timeline with a 4-0 vote.

Deputy County Administrator Sarah Barnett presented proposed updates to the county's Naming and Renaming County Facilities & Parks Policy, including an implementation timeline. After Barnett's presentation, Commissioner Frank Flannagan moved to adopt the recommendation; the motion was seconded by Austin Schwartz and carried on a 4-0 vote.
