On Monday, June 8, the Town will temporarily shut off water service to perform work aimed at improving our water system. The work is expected to begin at approximately 9:00 A.M. While every effort will be made to restore service as quickly as possible, there is no established timeframe for completion, and water service will be restored once the work has been successfully completed.
We apologize for any inconvenience this temporary interruption may cause and appreciate your patience and cooperation as we complete these important system improvements.

MEMORIAL DAY PROCLAMATION - May 25, 2026

WHEREAS the United States Congress, in a joint resolution approved May 11, 1950, provided that Memorial Day should be set aside as a day of prayer for permanent peace; and

WHEREAS, each year Memorial Day serves as a solemn reminder of the scourge of war and its bitter aftermath of sorrow; and

WHEREAS this day has traditionally been devoted to paying homage to loved ones who lie in hallowed graves throughout the land, having sacrificed their lives for the freedoms we now enjoy; and

WHEREAS in tribute to these silent dead it is fitting that we lift up our voices together in supplication, each according to their religious faith, for wisdom in our search for enduring peace; and

WHEREAS today and every day, let us reverently remember and honor those who have fallen in war, and rededicate ourselves to the cause of peace, to the end that the day may come when we shall never have another war.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT PROCLAIMED by the Town Council of the Town of Urbanna, Virginia, that Monday, May 25, 2026, be observed as Memorial Day and as a day of Town-wide prayer for permanent peace.

In commemoration of this event, the Urbanna Town Council urges all citizens to join together in their homes, places of work, and places of worship at 3:00pm for the National Moment of Remembrance to honor those who gave their lives for our country and pray for permanent peace and wisdom for our town, our state, our nation, and our world.

PROCLAIMED this 14th day of May, 2026.
