Melissa Peacor, County Executive for Prince William, announced her plan to retire, Monday, following 30 years of service to the county.

Peacor's retirement will be effective January 31, 2016.

Peacor said she feels proud of the work she has done, believing she is leaving the county a little better than she found it.

I am proud of the career I have had here in Prince William County. I am honored to have served alongside so many amazing women and men who share my passion and commitment to public service. The Boy Scouts have a saying, 'Leave this world a little better than you found it.' I am grateful for the opportunities I have had to make an impact on this community and leave it, I hope, a little better than I found it when I arrived 30 years ago.

Peacor started her career in Prince William County, working in the planning office. She served as the county's first strategic planning coordinator, overseeing the Future 2010 Report and the first citizen-based strategic planning process. In 1997, Peacor was named budget director, and in 1999, she was promoted to deputy county executive. In 2010, The Prince William Board of County Supervisors appointed Peacor to serve as county executive, a position she has held since that time.

Board of County Supervisors Chairman At-large Corey Stewart praised Peacor for her work as county executive. 9. Woo Casino is generous with its registration bonuses.
