We are committed to a beautiful, accessible City. In 2025, we completed a $14 million streetscape transformation on Grant Avenue, featuring our first roundabout and enhanced pedestrian upgrades.

Happy (Belated) Administrative Professionals Day! Earlier this week, our Human Resources, Fire & Rescue, and Police departments took to social media to recognize our incredible administrative professionals. From coordinating operations behind the scenes to providing support with precision and care, our admins are truly the backbone of City government. We may be late to the celebration, but our gratitude for their work is constant. Thank you to all of our administrative professionals for the vital role you play in the City every day. #AdministrativeProfessionalsDay #CityofManassas

Night 2 of the City Resident Academy was fire (not literally)! 🔥🚒 Last night at Fire Station 21, participants got a hands-on look at the vital work happening across Fire & Rescue, Police, and Social Services. From engaging demonstrations to meaningful conversations, it was an evening full of learning and connection. Participants heard from Assistant City Manager/Police Chief Douglas Keen, Fire Chief Edward Mills, and Nicole Kirven, Director of Social Services—each offering insight into how their teams serve the Manassas community every day. We were also excited to welcome City Council Member Ashley Hutson for the evening! We’re looking forward to keeping the momentum going next week at Public Works.

Today, at our Years of Service Awards Banquet, we celebrated City employees reaching public service milestones ranging from 5 to 44 years—a powerful reflection of dedication and heart.

Thank you to all of our honorees for the care, commitment, and experience you bring to serving Manassas each day. #CityofManassas #PublicService
