• Loudoun County School Board weighs reversal that could reroute Dominion transmission lines away from Ashburn neighborhood, through schools (wusa9.com) — Sterling families could soon see massive Dominion transmission towers routed either past Rock Ridge High and Rosa Lee Carter Elementary or through nearby Ashburn backyards, depending on a high-stakes Loudoun School Board vote. An emergency meeting before a July 20 deadline weighs whether to allow lines on school property, as neighbors in Sterling and Ashburn debate safety, home values, and how to power the county’s booming data centers.
   

• Noodles & Company shuttering stores in Leesburg, Herndon (theburn.com) — Sterling diners may remember the Noodles & Company that closed in 2020, a space now filled by CHIKO, as the chain continues pulling back from our area. The last Loudoun County Noodles in Leesburg has shut down, and the nearby Herndon location is expected to close later this month as part of a nationwide downsizing effort.
