Scores of Hispanic residents in Prince William County are still in search of housing two weeks after their trailer park was ravaged by storms that produced floodwaters 12 feet deep. About 110 former residents of Holly Acres moved to their third temporary shelter Friday after being forced to leave a county-run shelter at the Dale City Recreation Center.
County officials said they lacked the resources to keep the shelter open since the rec center was unable to collect its normal fees and oversight was costing the county as well, county spokesman Jason Grant said.
