23219 Zoning,subdivision changes adopted By PEKAY PETTUS A LONG list of amendments to Rappahannock’s new zoning and subdivision ordinances was approved by the Supervisors following a joint public hearing with the Planning Commission last Thursday. The ordinances were adopted by the Supervisors last fall with the stipulation they would be reviewed and, if necessary, amended by April of this year. Most of the discussion, and controversy, at last Thursday’s meeting focused on Section 2-31A of the subdivision ordinance. That section defines “subdivision” on land of less than 14% slope as any division of land into two or more parcels for transfer of ownership, lease or building development (a) if any such lot is less than 25 acres; (b) if a new street is involved in such division; or (c) if the state access highway to such subdivision has a right-of-way width of less than 50 feet. THE Planning Commission had recommended to the Supervisors that sections (b) and (c) be deleted. But their recommendation encountered opposition from persons in the audience at the hearing and both subsections were eventually . retained. Col. E. A. McNear, county Zoning Administrator, ji, argued that the two delev* tions would “weaken and water down the ordinance; we’ll pay dearly,” he predicted. “And we’ll get bunches of 25-acre subdivisions.” TtLtl TmhiIm nMAdiilAnt svf A 111.1 11 (till) (/* vuiuvi** the Rappahannock League for Environmental Protection, agreed with McNear. “The RLEP is happy to endorse most of the proposed changes to the ordinances. But we strongly recommend retaining subsections (b) and (c).” Irwin maintained that the requirement of a plat or sketch was not too much to ask of any subdivider, regardless of the acreage he was dividing. “AS YOU know, there are a good many 1,000-acre tracts in this county,” Irwin said, “and they could divide them into a sub division of 40 parcels and still by-pass any right of review by the county.” Newbill Miller, chairman of the Board of Supervisors and a Planning Commissioner, who had attended the work sessions that resulted in the recommendation to delet the two subsections, disagreed. “Maybe I’d be willing to keep (b), but I have no use for (c),” he said. “It’s unduly restrictive.” Miller thought that a premature subdivision clause “would catch the big ones.” Eileen Day, however, thought the two subsections should stay. “There should be minimum standards for roads in any subdivision. People come and scream at the county for services. They’ll want the school bus and the fire truck up there.” “Without them there aren’t enough controls,” added Captain W. J. Kime. “I support Irwin and McNear.” Newbill Miller offered a compromise. “Let’s change (a) to 50 acres, leave (b) in, and take (c) out.” “LET’S keep all three in and make exceptions for parcels of more than 50 acres,” J. R. Latham suggested. “But you’re missing the point,” McNear said. “Keeping them in doesn’t prevent anybody from subdividing. It just means it has to come through the proper channels. It assures the county some review. You’re not denying them the right to subdivide. You’re just insisting they do it orderly.” At this point, Sean Kilpatrick, a Rappahannock resident and reporter for The Culpeper Star-Exponent, asked: “If I own 20 acres, a bottomland field over on the F. T. Valley Road, and I want to sell that to my neighbor Mr. Fletcher, so he can run some cattle on it, what business is it of the county?” The Supervisors didn’t respond to Kilpatrick’s question directly, but Pete Luke told him that sales to adjacent landowners are a special situation. “That comes under boundary adjustment. We have a special provision for that.” Joy Luke suggested that the problem seemed to be “the number of times a parcel is divided, not the acre age involved. There’s bound to be some compromise possible.” “Well, one thing’s for sure. There’s not much See Page 16 Trout fishermen lines the banks of Piney Branch in Old Hollow as the trout fishing season opened at noon Saturday. According to Game Warden, Irvin Kenyon, results were good with most everyone making at least one catch and relatively few violations. as Supervisor J. NEWBILL MILLER, Chairman of the Rappahannock County Board of Supervisors since 1963, resigned from the Board last Friday. In a letter to Circuit Court Judge Rayner V. Snead, Miller said he had contemplated resigning for several months. “I made it clear a year and a half ago that I wouldn’t be running for re-election,” Miller said. ‘‘And it was a long series of things that made me decide Friday was the time to do it.” The day before, the Board of Supervisors approved amendments to the county’s new subdivision and zoning ordinances, one or two which Miller had seen as ‘‘too restrictive.” Miller admitted, when discussing reasons for his resignation, that he was “not happy with some things in some sections” of the new ordinances, but he said he was not quitting because of the Supervisors’ action on Thursday. “It’s not a case of me picking up my marbles and going home,” He said. “I’m proud of my record and I I’ve accomplished about as high of percentage of my goals as I could have expected to.” But Miller said he was “tired of the criticism and bitterness” that he faced “in the center of every public controversy.” “Some people say that anyone who’s in the public eye should be willing to take that, but I don’t think you should have to put up with that kind of innuendo. Not on the local level, when the official is only interested in doing his duty.” MILLER repeated several times that “no one person or thing” influenced his decision. “It’s cummulative, I’ve been thinking about it for some time.” Miller added that “any time an official is faced with constant decisions on an issue as emotional as zoning, the stresses are doubled.” ‘‘But Rappahannock has been well governed, not just by me, but by the Board. If you compare us to our neighbros, our zoning ordinances have been effective and our tax rate is reasonable.” he said. Newbill Miller had some ideas about the direction Rappahannock’s leaders should take in future planning decisions. “Everything that local government has to decide on, from schools to the tax rate, depends on orderly growth,” he said. “When the subdivision and zoning was started, back around ’62, you had just a handful of people who were interested, who saw the need for planning.” “So that handful saw to it that reasonable, effective ordinances were enacted. And the people of the county recognized that these were reasonable, so they were overwhelmingly in favor,” he said. But Miller now fears the See Page 15

LATHAM, Managing Editor Telephone Washington 675-3349 ‘A quiet place’ “A QUIET PLACE where yards are wide, people few, and motor vehicles restricted are legitimate guidelines in a land use project addressed to family needs...The police power is not confined to elimination of filth, stench, and unhealthy places. It is ample to lay out zones where family values, youth values, and the blessings of quiet seclusion, and clean air make the area a sanctuary for people.” That passage is from the majority opinion of the United States Supreme Court in the case of the Village of Belle Terre (N.Y.) vs Bruce Boraas as handed down April 1, 1974. It was written by Justice William O. Douglas, and sums up an interesting and what could be far-reaching interpretation of a community government’s zoning powers. While the case involved other complications of “life style” and legal points, not even the dissenting opinions written by Justices Brennan and Marshall argued the basic right of local governments to exercise zoning discretion of this sort. It certainly seems elementary enough. But it is also something which sorely needed to be said in the highest tribunals, in the face of developer assertions which practically amount to a definition of anarchy. How many times have we heard it said around here?—about how simple ownership of a piece of property by one person overrides the rights of everyone else living in the community? It’s not usually put that bluntly, of course, but that’s what it amounts to. How refreshing now to hear the Supreme Court say that people in a community have the right, if they want to, to zone for peace and quiet—for “a sanctuary for people”! JUSTICE DOUGLAS CITED an earlier conclusion of the court regarding zoning that also held that “it is within the power of the legislature to determine that the community should be beautiful as well as healthy, spacious as well as clean, well-balanced as well as carefully patrolled.” Even Justice Marshall, in dissenting, conceded that: “I am in full agreement with the majority that zoning is a complex and important function of the state. It may indeed be the most essential function performed by local government, for it is one of the primary means by which we protect that sometimes difficult to define concept of quality of life.” He just dian’t agree that this was a pertinent point in the case at hand. To hear some re-zoning and development arguments bandied about these parts in recent years, rules and regulations for an orderly society amount to a denial of freedom.

T H E Sperry ville heads SWCB priority list “SPERRY VILLE is number one on the priority list,” Pete Luke told Rappahannock’s Supervisors at their meeting last Thursday. Luke said that the State Water Control Board has placed Sperryville at the head of a list of study projects for sewage treatment alternatives. “It seems that we made enough noise about. our problems up here to get them to look at the plight of small towns,” Luke said. “They’ve (the State Water Control Board) now got the Mitre Corporation studying small communities. They’re focusing on them, now that they’ve recognized that the problems of the small community need a different solution from the bigger, more populated areas.” Luke said the State Water Control Board still endorses Planning District Nine’s Water Quality Management Plan “as guide.” “But they now realize that the problems of a small place are unique, and those big-scale treatment plants just aren’t appropriate.” THAT conclusion was voiced earlier by theSperryville Community Group, an organization formed shortly after the Health Department warned Sperryville businesses that their Health Permits wouldn’t be renewed unless some alternative was found to dumping sewage directly into the South Fork of the Thornton River. A Water Quality Management Plan, prepared for Planning District Nine, recommended two types of sewage treatment facilities to solve Sperryville’s problem. The Sperryville Community Group objected to both proposals as too large and too expensive. The Community Group members argued that Sperryville doesn’t need a sewage treatment system with “growth potential” since Sperryville is in a flood plain and future development is restricted. They said Sperryville only needed a solution to alleviate the existing problem. The community Group recommended purchasing a tract of land large enough for a community septic field. (ADDING substance to Luke’s optimistic report on the chances of funding a Sperry ville sewer “solution” was a report given at last Saturday’s meeting of the Upper OccoquanSewage Authority. Millard H. Robbins Jr., executive director of UOSA, was until recently with theSWCB, and he mentioned Sperryville in a report as a specific example of the type of project which may be pushed to the top of state priority lists. (Added Robbins, in the report to his directors: “The 1974 General Assembly reduced the State matching grant from 10 per cent to 5 per cent and established a fund of $1.5 million for hardship cases. In extreme hardship cases, the locality can receive a State grant of 20 per cent or a total of 95 per cent. The criteria for establishing hardship cases are being developed by the State Water Control Board. Preliminary indications are that hardship cases will be limited to small systems... ”)□ I IV' r k , HIM Quality Clothe* for over 40 Years Easter Fashions i For Ladies and Gentlemen * i FOR HER • SPRING COATS • DRESSES • ENSEMBLES • COORDINATES • ACCESSORIES FOR HIM • SUITS • SPORTCOATS • SLACKS • SHIRTS • ACCESSORIES • SHOES FREE CIRCUS DOLLARS !

Scant local ‘input’ at road hearing JUDGING from the turnout at last Thursday’s Highway Department district hearing in Culpeper, people in Fauquier, Lou' cloun and Rappahannock counties (and officials) don’t much care what is in store for them in the department’s 10-year primary road-building program. A number of citizens and officials were on hand to speak about problems in Fairfax, Prince William, Madison, Orange and Culpeper, and the towns of Fairfax City, Manassas Park, Manassas, Haymarket, and Culpeper, but the representations for Fauquier, Loudoun and Rappahannock were scant. (Apparently, Albemarle representation was even scantier.) Delegate French Slaughter spoke in behalf of a number of road projects in his distrct. Mrs. J. W. Sinclair had some questions about the eastern Warrenton bypass; Donald Musch, an attorney from Middleburg, spoke in general terms about the plethora of fourlaning projects in Fauquier and Loudoun, and Delegate French Slaughter threw in a passing word about problems along Route 211 in the vicinity of Amissville, \ .but beyond that, Highway Department officials might be excused for concluding that there’s not much public or private interest in primary highway projects in Fauquier, Loudoun and Rappahannock Counties. J. E. HARWOOD opened the proceedings at the Culpeper District headquarters of the Highway Department (even the biggest highwayman of them all in Virginia, Douglas Fugate, was in attendance) with an invitation to “public input.” Harwood said that until last year, the Department had contented itself with two hearings—one in Roanoke and one in Richmond — based on “tentative allocations” for primary road projects. But last year, a series of hearings was held in each Highway District, dealing with some projects not even marked down for “tentative allocations,” and the Department liked the idea. The two allocation hearings will still be held, in June, he added. Harwood had little else to say about specific departmental plans or problems, beyond raising a question about the possible impact of “the fuel crisis.” He said current figures indicate the department will lose 10 per cent or more in highway tax revenue; maybe even 15 or 16 per cent. (January reports showed highway usage in Virginia down almost 30 per cent, but Harwood didn’t mention that figure.) Various projects were supported by H.S. Hume Jr. of Arlington, W. H. Carpenter of Madison, Giles H. Miller Jr. of the Town of Culpeper, H. F. Noel of Orange, and French Slaughter. A favorite project mentioned often was improvement of Route 3 leading to Germanna College and Lake of the Woods residential area. Delegate Slaughter also thanked the Department for “its consideration” of the crossover problem on Route 211 at Amissville. Mrs. J.W. Sinclair of Warrenton was next, and she was not awed by the lineup of Highway Department officials.

Despite the most determined efforts, citizens never seem to get any information at all until ‘‘30 or 60 days before a public hearing is held,” when it is often too late to do anything about plans alread) made. ADDED MRS. Sinclair “Nothing ever seems tc resolve in favor of the public; it always goes to th( highway.” She described difficulties experienced in gettinj Sm Page 19 Speed limit plea KEEP VIRGINIA’S SPEED limits at their present 55 mph level, the Virginia Highway Department was urged at last Thursday’s primary road planning hearing in Culpeper: “I love my husband!” Making the plea was Mrs. Diana Byrd, who described herself as a resident of Fairfax County “and a prospective resident of Rappahannock.” Said she to the assembled Highway Department Commissioners and engineers: “Now that the crisis is over and we’re only left with a problem, it is important that you keep the speed limits down and keep your men enforcing it.” Automobile—manufacturers “love” to make cars which will go 100 mph, she said, “and my husband would be pleased to drive it at 100 mph. In fact, he did and you gave him a ticket. I love my husband very much! Please keep the speed limits low!”D Mrs. Diana Byrd urged state highway officials to keep the present 55 mph speed limit, because "I love my husband.” 1 for Pork Producers Buy a ton of swinefeed..* *2^ Here’s your chance to pack on the pork and eliminate worms at no extra charge.

Only bearded turkeys are legal and hunting hours are from a half hour before sunrise until 11 a.m. This season will run through Saturday, May 11. Only one turkey per day may be taken and the season bag limit is three per license year, which means any turkeys killed last fall must be counted in this season’s bag. If a hunter used none of his turkey license tabs last fall, all three may be used in the spring. Most hunters are very good about getting out of the woods by 11 a.m. This is important since the sooner they leave the less chance there is of disturbing a nesting hen. Most hunters find that the action is pretty well over much earlier than 11. Use of dogs is, of course, not legal during the spring season and an effort should be made to keep dogs out of known nesting areas for the next several months. □ NOW yENROLLING fc FOR ** 1974-75 Session Btakeftelit Country Bay School Huotle.

Burgess, Superintendent of State Police, has reported. He said that it is difficult to explain but just about all the gain was achieved in February, which saw 50 deaths to mark the lowest February toll since the 36 of 1961. Score for February, 1973, was 90. There were 78 January, 1974, deaths and 77 for January, 1973. March tolls were 91 for 1973 and 88 for 1974. Here he observed that all 1974 statistics are subject to slight increases due to late reports and deaths of persons now carried as injured and that there was every possibility of the March score for 1974 surpassing that of 1973. Pedestrian deaths dropped from 40 to 35, deaths of motorcyclists stood even at seven each and those of servicemen rose from six to 10. Highway Department figures showed traffic volumes to have dropped about four percent for the first two months of the year.C $he ffbud ®rlbut6 7 UVHB FUNERAL HOME “The Home of Thoughtful Service” CEMETERY MEMORIALS PHONE 825-2361 CULPEPER Warren Memorial Hospital.

They might listen to them as representing all the people, and they might enact some things that are too restrictive, that the people won’t accept.” “I’m sure I’ve made the best decision for my best interests,” Miller said. “And I think I’ve made the best decision for the county’s best interests.” Miller said “there have been some wild rumors about what I’m planning to do next.

Zoning, subdivision changes From Page 1 ' land under 14% slope that contiguous. Not in Rappahannock,” Newbill Miller said. PETE LUKE had done some research on his point. “We keep saying that about Rappahannock, put after checking, I’ve found out that 43% of the county is under 14% slope. It’s not the 70-30 ratio like some people think; it’s closer to 50-50.” Eileen Day suggested that exceptions should be permitted for property fronting on existing stateowned rights-of-way. “If it’s there already, letthem go ahead.” “We've got to remember we’re dealing with two different realms,’’ Commonwealth’s Attorney George Davis said. “We have the big land developer and the local guy on the scene. And we need different rules for rabbits than for elephants.’’ Davis suggested that the requirements might start when more than three parcels were being divided from the tract. “I could accept the Commonwealth’s suggestion, reluctantly,’’ Phil Irwin said. “But we don’t want to grant some kind of carte blanche for cutting up three parcel tracts all over,’’ Kime said. “It would be worded to take care of the different types,” Davis said. “But let’s work for something realistic. Avoid the appearnce of being so prohibitive.” MINIMUM standards for road requirements were also discussed at the hearing. “We’ve batted around these road requirements at a thousand meetings,” Pete Luke said, “and I think we’ve got it down about right—avoiding extensive cuts and fills, but with enough room for rightof-way, enough room to maneuver around within that right-of-way.” An appendix of minimum road standards, drafted by Luke and Fanning Baumgardner, was added to the subdivision ordinance. “Since our strict ordinance in ’62, with all those street regulations, we’ve put a lot of pasture under pavement. We want to avoid this in the future,” George Davis commented. “But I think this ordinance is generally discouraging to outsiders,” Davis added. “We’re not going to make it perfect,” Pete Luke said. “I’m for follow-up. We’ll always have to look at it again.” EILEEN Day as chairman of the Land Use Com REAL ESTATE OFFERINGS REALTY WOODVILLE: Completely restored log cabin in quiet village.

Exclusive with Joyce R. DeBergh Real Estate Broker Washington, Virginia Phone 675-3677 for appointment mittee of the RLEP, read the Supervisors a statement drafted by her committee saying its members were “basically pleased” with the new ordinances but wanted to point out “some inequities.” Mrs. Day said the Land Use Committee wanted to see the minimun-lot size in an agricultural zone increased and the minimum acreage in a conservation zone “commensurately decreased.” In this way, she said, the total number of tracts would not be increased, but would be more balanced, “and would help preserve disappering farmland.” The Land Use Committee also recommended that the Planning Commission consider adopting a comprehensive plan and that future small lot subdivisions should be planned to take place within a half mile of existing population centers, “to facilitate services and help preserve visual unity and esthetic qualities.” Discussion, and a pointby-point reading of other changes in the ordinances, prolonged the meeting by several hours. Some of the changes involved the insertion or deletion of a single defining word; some involved minor technical changes ; some added legal clarification, or eliminated what was felt to be unecessary wordage. Most of the changes, and the reasons they had been suggested, had been dealt with in detail at work sessions over the past several weeks, sessions which were reported at the time in the Rappahannock News.

Hoad Hearing From Page 7 data about the by-pass and its “spur” linkage with Route 17 north of Warrenton, stating: “That is the kind of thing we don’t see why we as citizens can’t be alerted...so we can send in some ideas...Why can’t you hear the people before your plans are made?” J. E. Harwood attempted a reply, for the Department: “We attempt to hold public hearings when we have sufficient information to present plans that can be understood,” he said. Murmurings from the audience indicated that many persons present shared Mrs. Sinclair’s questions. Highway Commission Douglas Fugate declined an invitation to speak. William Embrey, chairman of the Fauquier Planning Commission, and Fauquier Planning Engineer Richard McNear, also did not speak. Present as as observer was W.P.

Jennings Hobson told the Supervisors that a surplus fire truck was available for Washington if the county Supervisors would first endorse the study that had been presented to them at their February meeting. “I remember that thing,” Pete Luke said. ‘‘All about what to do if a truck with radio active isotopes wrecks in the county. We’d have to build a building and hire a man to handle it. As I recall, we told the fellow that it wasn’t needed in Rappahannock County, just wasn’t appropriate.” ‘‘This endorsement won’t commit you to anything,” Hobson said. ‘‘You’re just saying it was a nice study, so we can get this fire truck.” Si Sez WHAT DO WE KNOW about Easter? We know that the time corresponds with the Jewish holiday, called the Passover. It is mentioned once in the Bible in Acts 12:4 with a notation that it should be Passover. Then, why Easter? Since it is associated with fertility rites we assume it comes from the goddess of such rites, Astarte. A .Professor Roger Rusk has given us a computerized report. Having given all the known facts to the computer, the answer came out that Christ was crucified Thursday, spent Friday (which began at sunset) Saturday and Sunday in the tomb. Monday morning the tomb was empty. He spent three whole days in the tomb as He said He would. According to the computer Christ died April 6, 30 AD. The Lord’s Day would be three days later. Now that we have actual dates, are we going to continue the haphazard way of celebrating this event which has a date variation of 35 days? Whatever this Holy Day may mean to us, the message is that beyond this vale of tears there is life. I think our rewards in that after life is determined by how we live here and now.D Wreck A single vehicle traffic crash occurred Sunday a half mile west of Washington on Route 211. Fabian L. Kozik of Bronx, N.Y. operating a 64 Ford, ran off the left of the road and struck a guard rail. No injury resulted and damage to the car was estimated at $300 and at $120 to the guard rail, according to Trooper W. A.

B. Wood said, ‘‘I didn’t think much of this other thing, but I’ll go along if this is what it takes to get the fire truck.” “Sure, I guess so, if this is how you get a fire engine,” Luke said. Herbert Foster was willing to go along with this idea too. “We’re justsaying it was a nice study. Okay.” “As a study it was fine,” Pete Luke said. “But it sure didn’t fit anything here.”n AN R C QUALITY THEATRE IN FRONT ROYAL. VIRGINIA HELD OVER! 2ND SMASH WEEK NOW THRU TUES.

MILLS GODWIN ignored local requests and signed into law Monday night a measure which takes away from local jurisdictions primary authority over powerline routes. House Bill 664 shifts responsibility for approving the routes directly to the State Corporation Commission. Local governments will be allowed to appear at hearings in Richmond, but utility companies will no longer have to deal with local planning commissions, zoning boards and boards of Supervisors. Several members of the Rappahannock League for Environmental Protection, citizens in Fauquier and Warren Counties, and Delegates Raymond (Andy) Guest Jr. and A1 Smith wrote to the Governor, asking that he veto the bill. In the words of one critic: “Bill 664 (removes) in one stroke important local airings and roadblocks, and creates a one-stop hearing in the state capital, which should greatly please all big powerlines.” If this act had been in force several years ago, Rappahannock and Fauquier Counties might be crisscrossed by multiple powerline corridors right now.
