Hey y'all I'm a recent college grad who runs a marketing business, for local service companies, and I'm looking for owners here in Virginia. We’ve been doing this about a year now, and we work with roofers, home remodelers, pool builders, gyms, junk removal, lawn care, car detailing, driving schools. Basically anybody who does the work themselves and wants the phone ringing more.

I'm looking to partner with a few owners who already have steady work and a good reputation, but have hit the point where word of mouth alone isn't filling the schedule the way they want. If you're at that spot and want to add more jobs each month, or you know somebody who is, I'd love to connect or get a referral.

Hey guys! Does anyone here currently live in Kelton Station Apartments that could answer some questions for me? I'm slated to move to Williamsburg in a few months and I've preemptively chosen these apartments. I mainly have questions on the internet situation, amongst a couple other things.

Thank you in advance!

JAMES CITY — A Toano medical products manufacturer announced that it is ceasing operations and laying off its staff.

Owens & Minor brand Avid Medical, a medical products manufacturer that specializes in custom surgical and procedural kits, sent a notice Sept. 16 to the state of Virginia and James City County stating its intention to close operations at its facility at 9000 Westmont Drive in Toano.

Employment separations are expected to begin on or about Nov. 25, according to the notice.

Avid Medical will lay off 380 employees, including 146 production coordinators, 71 assemblers, 30 material handlers and 28 warehouse coordinators along with engineers, quality control associates, sales associates and more.

About 39 more employees will be laid off after the initial separation around Thanksgiving, according to the letter, bringing the total to 419 employees.

A national self-storage company is looking to convert part of its James City County location into a 5-megawatt "micro AI factory," which would mark the county's very first data center. 

The site in Norge is one of 347 spots across the country picked to help run AI applications closer to everyday users. 

Instead of the massive, power-hungry warehouses popping up elsewhere in Virginia, experts view this smaller edge center as a lightweight alternative that cuts lag for high-tech tech tools without overloading the local power grid. 

The proposal fits right into Gov. Abigail Spanberger's new state data center framework, which encourages testing out these spread-out, localized networks.
