Mechanicsville, VA has been steadily growing for years now. Our population is four times the population of Ashland, a city that has been incorporated since the 1840’s, and over a third of the population of Hanover County. The town is riddled with potholes and overwhelmed with insufficient infrastructure that causes a flood of rush-hour traffic that needs solving. Our board of supervisors couldn’t care less about the town and the numerous issues it faces.

It is time to incorporate.

We need dedicated leadership who understand the struggles this community faces to fix them and maintain the ideas our area believes in. This includes establishing a mayor and police force to execute laws, city council to create laws, a new tax system, a localized election system, a flag and seal to establish our community’s identity, and council districts to be formed.
