Loudoun County Board Chair Phyllis Randall spoke at a Board of Supervisors meeting about interactions with Dominion Energy. She characterized the company’s attitude as intransigent and dismissive in her statements. Randall described the challenges posed by this approach during discussions on local matters. The Loudoun County Board of Supervisors includes Chair Phyllis Randall along with members Juli Briskman, Tony Buffington, Sylvia Glass, Koran Saines, Caleb Kershner, Matt Letourneau, and Mike Turner.
The chair explained that a large barrier existed in communications with the utility. This barrier stemmed from insufficient knowledge or engagement according to Randall. She indicated that the situation had persisted and affected ongoing efforts. Board members present included several district representatives who heard the remarks.
Randall mentioned the possibility of additional context helping to resolve issues. She referenced the nineteenth in relation to the timeline of events. The comments occurred as part of a larger agenda item on county business. No immediate action was taken following the statements.
The exchange highlighted differences in perspectives between the board and the energy company. Randall stressed the need for better cooperation to address resident needs. Dominion Energy representatives were not present to respond during the session. County staff noted the comments for potential follow-up.
Public input options were available during the meeting via phone or other means. The board continues to handle various utility-related topics in regular sessions. Randall’s remarks were part of her role as chair in facilitating discussions. Additional meetings are scheduled to cover related agenda items.
Observers at the meeting included other elected officials and staff. The focus remained on factual reporting of the proceedings without further elaboration. County records will document the full discussion for public access. Developments in this area may be addressed in future board actions.
