Rappahannock News, August 14, 1975

£. 2<CL'1 Zoning ‘exception’ is recommended T. C. LEA, attorney for the heirs of J. L. Williams, and Commonwealth’s Attorney George Davis were directed by the Board of Supervisors last Thursday to “get together and see if something can be worked out” to enable each of the seven Williams heirs to inherit a part of the 37-acre family homeplace. Rappahannock’s subdivision and zoning ordinances permit as many as five children to inherit property even if some of the five lots would be of nonconforming size. The Williams heirs had requested a re zoning of their property from agricultural to residential subdivision, in order to divide the land into lots small enough for each of the seven children to have one. “I’ve never heard a more eloquent or compelling case for an exception,” one member of the audience said after listening to the pleas of the Williams family. The only problem with that, Supervisor Chairman Pete Luke said, is that the Williams heirs haven’t asked for an exception—they’ve asked for a rezoning. Luke said he’d have no qualms about granting an exception, since “this fits the exception idea,” but he would oppose a rezoning. That could become a precedent, he said, “and affect the rest of the ordinance.” “We don’t care about getting rezoned,” attorney Lea said. “We just want to split the land.” The zoning administrator had advised Lea to go about it in this manner, he said. “Well, send it back to the Planning Commission. Get Lea and Davis together and see if the two parties can’t work something out,” Herbert Foster said. And that’s what the board recommended. EARLIER, during the public hearing, attorney Lea presented a plat showing how Jarrel Williams had acquired his 37 acres, fronting on three secondary roads in the “Tiger Valley.” Williams had acquired five separate lots by four deeds. His children wanted to reapportion those five lots into seven. The county ordinance allows a parent to give a twoacre lot to as many as five children. The way the Williams heirs proposed to divide their land, several of the lots would be larger than two acres, and perhaps this division of land was more in the spirit of the zoning ordinance than some which complied exactly, Lea said. But, Lea said, his real argument was the discrimination against parents who “fortunately or unfortunately” had more than five children. Lea said he wanted to tell the Supervisors “something about this family and their contributions to Rappahannock County.” And he emphasized repeatedly, “These people are not tring to split up their father’s land to make money. They’re only asking that people who were born and rainsed here can come back.” Phil Irwin, president of the Rappahannock League for Environmental Protection, said the rezoning requested by the Williams would create high density development in an otherwise agricultural area. “Mr. Lea assumes that subdividing into parcels is the only way to divide an estate, there are other alternatives,” Irwin said. Elizabeth Haskell said she and her husband had bought the Joe Keyser place. They were the most directly affected by this rezoning, she said. They had been attract ed to this area by its agricultural character and intended to maintain their own farm in agricultural use. The subdivision of this property would affect everyone in Rappahannock County as a precedent, she said. “The Williams are a fine family. I like them as neighbors. But I don’t want a sub division as my neighbor,” she said. JOHN LANCASTER, the husband of one of the Williams heirs, spoke next. “There is such a thing as moral law and material law. Nothing can prohibit you from , See Page 10 O.A. Norton continues in the capacity of Superintendent of Schools for Rappahannock County, working solely with this county, rather than with both Rappahannock and Warren as he did previously. The School office has been established in the former Lee Highway Hotel building in Sperryville and Mr. Norton has T.A. Fleetwood as assistant superintendent; Mrs. Frances Carney, standing, and Miss Martha Lou O’Bannon, both of Woodville, as clerical employes. New fire and rescue number listed A NEW communications system for the Washington and Flint Hill fire and rescue units has been established with dispatching headquarters in the sheriff’s office in Culpeper. It is important that residents of this area make note of the phone number for this service, which is 112-825-6655.. This is a long distance call from either of the Washington or Flint Hill areas; however, to obtain the new dispatching service, this is necessary, for there is no local base station. The new system is now in use, the old lines of communication will remain open so that calls can also be made locally, and the new system as a back-up will guarantee that either company can be alerted at any time. Stickers with the new number on them which can be placed on the telephone will be distributed soon. Since the Culpeper dispatcher will not be totally familiar with the area geographically and with family names, it will be necessary that caution be taken when calling a unit. Be sure to speak distinctly, giving names, directions, locations and the nature of the problem clearly. To install and activate the new system four steps were taken: The phone was installed at the Culpeper Sheriff’s office; next, electronic equipment in that office will allow the dispatcher to set off the siren at either Washington or Flint Hill or both, by simply pressing a button; the third phase was the installation of electronic devises placed in the sirens at Washington and Flint Hill fire houses which will activate them for a pre-set number of cycles for a pre-set length of time, when the button is pressed in Culpeper. These sirens may also be activated locally under the old system. THE FINAL step is the location of monitors at the fire houses and in the homes of various department members. These tone activated devices will allow the dispatcher to inform members of the nature and location of the call. This will be convenient for members who may not be able to hear the siren at their homes. Due to the expense of the monitors, not all members will have them in their homes or cars, but it is hoped that eventually these can be provided for every active department member. The new system is helpful in reaching and alerting volunteer personnel, and it should also help to improve insurance rates. The fire companies at Amissville and Castleton have used this system for some time.D School dates Rappahannock County Public Schools will open for the 1975-76 session on Monday, August 25. Classes will be dismissed at 2 p.m. on opening day, with full day schedule beginning August 26. Friday, August 29, will be a work day for teachers, and pupils will not be in attendance. Pre-school conferences and work days for teachers will be held on August 20, 21 and 22 in preparation for the school openings. Monday, September 1, will be observed as a holiday.□

LATHAM, Managing Editor Telephone Washington S75-334& ■BHUHSMiUBHnMMMIIMMHMMHI Citizen support ISN’T this too often the way it is, was the rhetorical observation of a “citizen” panelist on the last day of the Piedmont Environmental Council’s fourth annual “planning conference” last week at Airlie House, the posh professional gathering place near Warrenton. After everyone else has been heard from—planners, lawyers, bureaucrats, developers, speculators, &c., &c.—then the citizens are given a tail-end place on the agenda, and told to please hurry up, because we’re way behind schedule. She submitted that this is an upside-down approach to the problem of planning in Piedmont Virginia or anywhere in America, and, ironically, so did some of the more enlightened “professionals” who preceded her. Citizen participation is the key, said many of the most influential speakers—from a planning consultant from Great Britain to a former Governor of Ore gon. Without citizen participation, and citizen support, the best land planning will in the world won’t amount to anything more than the oratorical sum of successive land planning conferences, and that isn’t the same thing as obtaining legislation to protect a critical watershed or obtaining the political clout required to block a subdivision from ruining, for all time, acres of fertile farmland. The Piedmont Environmental Council has served a useful purpose over the years in bringing together such lively and provocative minds as Graham Ashworth of Great Britain, Tom McCall of Oregon, William Reilly of the Rockefeller Land Use Task Force, and many, many other eloquent, sometimes passionate advocates of planning sanity in a nation threatened by judicial and developmental anarchy. They’ve helped inspire lonely citizens and sometimes forlorn citizen groups who have fought the good fight against a tide of Babbitry and boosterism that sometimes has threatened to engulf us all in a sea of asphalt and plat maps. BUT more is needed. The message has to get out to a wider audience. Broad citizen support is needed to inspire the sort of political initiative that gets truly comprehensive and lasting results. The PEC and like-minded groups have got to find ways to reach a wider audience, one whose scope can be translated into the sort of voting power that politicians in Warrenton, Leesburg, Richmond and Washington, D. C., pay attention to. Former Oregon Governor Tom McCall has a proven record of being able to reach a state’s electorate—its masses, if you will. But when he came to Virginia, he didn’t speak to the masses, he spoke to a largely repeat audience at a rather exclusive “think-tank” type of fancy retreat. We don’t think Governor McCall would have minded rolling up ms sleeves and loosening his tie, in order to better sound off at a country fairground, or make himself heard at the back of a rural school auditorium. And it’s our guess that a rural Virginia audience would respond to the sound reasoning and solid emotionalism expressed in Graham Ashworth’s precise clipped British accents just as forcefully as have his audiences at Airlie. Indeed, Mr. Ashworth seemed to rather relish the one burst of oratorical rough and tumble to which he was submitted on his most recent foray onto the threatened North American continent. It’s public support that is the Key to truly meaningful land planning, said Ashworth and McCall and any number of speakers at the PEC’s latest “planning conference.’’ Here’s hoping the effort is made to invite the public in to more of any future efforts to promulgate the cause of sound planning, which is really nothing more than another way of saying “common sense,” an attribute historically respected by “the public.” □ “Close-ups” The closeup last week was a key chain, however there was no real way to completely specify it as just that, thought some readers did.

Letter to the editor Textbook advice Editor: As the new school year approaches, I would like to relay some information to Rappahannock County parents. At the beginning of 1974-75 school year, it so happened that new textbooks for my eighth grade science students were late arriving. Therefore, these students made strong efforts to find used books. About 90 students actually were able to buy used books—for a couple of dollars—and only about 25 students bought their science books new, for about $6.40 each. Of course, if new books had been available during that first week of school, most students would have purchased them. The point is that in most cases students can buy used books, at a savings, if they look for them. If your children buy most of their books new, they are wasting your money. They can find used books by asking their older friends or by making use of the National Honor Society, which arranges sale of used books. Furthermore, if some old books are lying around home, there is a good chance they can be sold if brought to school. Of course some textbooks are discontinued, such as certain science and math books this year, but most books remain in use for six years. Brion G.

T H E L I T T L E F 0 X School Board handles varied agenda RAPPAHANNOCK’S School Board members talked about establishing a policy on the use of school buildings after school hours, the need for a dress code, how the Freedom of Information Act affects who can see student records, as well as other administrative matters during their meeting Tuesday night. The school board meeting was shorter than most—the motion for adjournment came before 11 p.m. Rappahannock school board members admit they’re notorious for late meetings, sometimes lasting until 12:30 or 1 a.m. But the sch ool board members compensate themselves for the long hours spent around the less than adult size table in thi; elementary school library. There’s almost always a fresh pot of coffee, and on Tuesday night they had homemade fudge and cookies as well. Superintendent O.A. Norton suggested that the school board establish a policy for use of school buildings after hours. He thought it should be restricted to recognized county groups and rented for a fee. A.Y. Stokes suggested that the agreement needed a clause placing responsibility on one specific person. “There ought to be some liability,’’ he said. Others agreed. Board chairman E.N. Montague read a letter from Mrs. Jack Atkins, requesting use of the school building for three hours on Tuesday nights for a training program for the Rappahannock County Rescue Association. They would need one classroom with a blackboard and could demonstrate practical application in the hall, so as not to disturb a classroom. The class would start September 23 and continue for 72 hours worth of instruction. PAUL NICHOLS commented that it might be cheaper for them to buy or rent a blackboard and hold the course in a fire hall. Superintendent Norton thought “this has got to be a highly motivated group to stick with a class that long.” “But it’s necessary,” Walter COMPLETE ONE-STOP Building Supply Hardware Paint Millwork Lumber WARRENTON BUILDING MATERIAL CO.. INC. ON THE BY-PASS WARRENTON Phone 347-1400 PITT Masterson said. “Oh, I’ll agree it’s a worthy thing, lives can be saved,” Norman said. He added that he didn’t know Mr. Atkins. Would he be the kind of person to clean up after the class was over? Norton asked. Paul Nichols said he knew all three of the rescue squadsmen who were in charge of the course. “All three are of the caliber to leave it in good order,” he said. E.N. Montague said the one reservation was heat costs. “We don’t know how tight this fuel is going to be. But we have indications it’ll be right tight,” he said. A.Y. Stokes made a motion to tentatively approve the request, subject to conversations between Jack Atkins and Superintendent Norton concerning heat costs. BEVERLY MASSIE said she was concerned about getting a dress code approved, especially for the warm months at the beginning of school, since “fashions are brief.” Norton said dress had become a problem during late spring in Warren County Schools. “We had more trouble* this past year in Warren County, especially among the junior high school students. You know, these peek-a-boos and bare midriffs. I finally had to tell a parent ‘Your daughter is maturing and she’s becoming a distraction,”’ Norton said. A dress code needs to be drafted and published so the students would be sure and know it, Beverly Massie said. “Oh, they know it,” Arthlinda Quaintance said. “But they conveniently forget it,” Beverly Massie said. T.A. Fleetwood, assistant superintendent, explained public law 93-80, regarding the availability of student records. “Category One” information, such as name, address, phone number, grades and educational progress, must be kept separate from “Category Two’’ information, which includes more personal information on the student such as pyschological evaulation, speech therapy and special education testing. Category Two information cannot be released without parental consent. Category One Information can be released, unless a parent has specified otherwise. If that paent doesn’t want Category One information released, it means the students name can’t be released, not for a football game roster, the yearbook or a commencement program. Norton said this new ruling would affect his budget. “If we’re going to have to keep two files on each student,’’ he said. “I see one advantage in all this,’’ Walter Masterson said, a bit facetiously. “We can’t release attendance records so they can’t figure out that goofy budget in Richmond,’’ he said. FLEETWOOD also said that new rulings require that special precautions be taken in school disciplinary matters to make sure all students get “due process.’’ Parents must be notified in writing of the action that might be taken against their child and the student must be allowed time to present his case before a decision is reached on the part of the principal or school board. “All this is in keeping with the practices of the courts of this nation,” Montague commented. “Well, I don’t go for it,” Arthlinda Quaintance said. A special admission committee will decide if a student can be re-admitted after suspension. This will relieve the school board of holding extra meetings, the superintendent said. O.A.

Recreation area permit is denied BY PEKAY PETTUS RAPPAHANNOCK’S Board of Zoning Appeals turned down the request of the Rappahannock Ski ' Area Inc. for a special use permit to allow parking for 150 camper trailers. The special use permit was requested on behalf of contract purchasers Donald Weil and Clift Miller of Front Royal. Weil and Miller had tentatively agreed to buy the ski area, provided they could get permission for the camper trailer park. According to Donald Weil and James A. Moore, president of the Rappahannock Ski Area Inc., the ski area must become an all year recreational resort in order to be profitable. Virginia winters have proved too warm to depend solely upon skiing, they said. Both Weil and Moore maintain that camper trailers are necessary if the ski area is to be used all year. ttappanannocK citizens who spoke against granting the special use permit during a hearing before the Zoning Appeals Board last Thursday (August 7) claimed the development of the ski area, as outlined by Weil, would offer no advantages to offset the encumbrances it would place upon the county. Opponents cited traffic congrestion in the town of Washington; increased traffic volume, which would make more frequent maintenance and a new bridge necessary for the gravel secondary road which is used to reach the ski area; additional fire, police and rescue squad services; as well as “litter” and “pollution,” as some of the disadvantages or costs the county could expect if Weil and Miller went ahead with their recreational development plans. Their fears were supported by two letters read aloud near the end of the hearing. One was from Don Askew, resident engineer for the Virginia Department of Highways, and the other was from the Rappahannock County Planning Commission, which had conducted a “fact finding survey” on the ski area at the request of the Zoning Appeals Board. ASKEW SAID that Route 622, the gravel road to the ski area, is only 18 feet wide with one foot shoulders. This road has an average of 345 vehicles per day from the end of the hard surface to the entrance to the ski area and only 47 vehicles per day beyond that point. Three of the four “inadequate” bridges across the road have already been replaced, Askew said, but one remains. That has a 15ton limit. The Rush River occasionally floods the lower sections of Route 622, Askew noted. The road should be hard surfaced, the resident engineer wrote, and would have been paved several years ago if it had not been for some difficulty in acquiring the necessary right of way. In the meantime, the funds have been transferred to other construction projects. Askew said the additional traffic which would probably result if the ski area became a year round recreational resort would bring increased demands for hard surfacing the road. However, in light of the right of way difficulty and reduced secondary road funds, Askew said it would be “many years” before the Virginia Department of Highways could begin to consider paving the road. According to the fact-finding report made by the Planning Commission for The Zoning Appeals Board, Rappahannock County collected approximately $12,000 in taxes from the ski area for the years 1964 to 1975. During that period, the county spent approximately $58,000 for maintenance, mainly on roads, and services to the ski area. The Planning Commissioners noted that the ski area was open less than half a year during this period. It is possible that the costs of maintenance and services would increase, while the taxes would remain essentially the same if the ski area were to become an all year recreational resort, the Planning Commission report said. JOSEF GARDINER, chairman of the Zoning Appeals Board, asked Weil if he would be able to pay for paving the secondary road to the ski area entraince. Weil asked for a minute to confer with fellow developers, then answered that they could not afford to hard surface the road, though they might consider helping with maintenance of the dirt road. James A. Moore, president of the ski area, spoke first at the hearing last Thursday. Moore said the contract purchasers only wanted to “put in” the kind of recreational facilities that had been suggested for the ski area by a committee of Rappahannock citizens. The current controversy over proposed development of the ski area into an all year recreational resort revolves around the campers and the fear of Rappahannock residents that there will be too many on the ski area property or too many driving through, Moore said. But that would never be the case, he claimed. Not more than 150 camper trailers would be allowed on the property at one time, and it would be seldom, if ever, that many showed up on the same weekend, he said, making a point Weil had made many times before and would do again before meeting was over. To deny the camper trailers would be to deny the owners of the ski area the use of their property as an all-year recreational resort. “I don’t want to be legalistic,” Moore continued, ‘‘but a property owner is entitled to the use for which his property is best suited. My property is best suited for commercial recreation,” he said, adding that the zoning Appeals Board had a right to deny him that use only if what he proposed were “injurious to the neighbors.” Camper trailers would not be in-----'—I NOTICE To the People of Rappahannock County, Wakefield District: Because I will not be a candidate for Supervisor from the Wakefield District in the November election I d like to take this opportunity to thank everyone f°r their kind help and cooperation during my past terms while holdi.8 this office. Even though I will no longer be serving the County in the capacity of Supervisor, I shall continue to work for the betterment of Rappahannock in every way. Herbert Foster Flint Hill, Va. jurious, he said. Moore went on, repeating much of what Weil had said at earlier sessions—as many as 1,500 people would buy “shares” to become “tenants in common” of the property; a share would entitle them to use the camping, skiing, swimming, hiking, tennis and riding facilities which would be developed at the 300 acre recreational development;—a property owners association will be formed of all 1,500 “tenants in common.” This association would draft by-laws and elect directors who would administer and manage the recreational development. AUBREY KEYSER was concerned about possible pollution of the Rush River and wanted to know what arrangements Weil and Miller would make for sewage disposal. Moore and Weil both said, several times, that the developers of the ski area would have to comply with state standards in order to receive permits, and those state standards assure that the public will be protected, they said. Weil said he didn’t think a special use permit was necessary in order to locate camper trailers on the property. “We don’t believe there’s any article in the (Rappahannock) zoning ordinance which covers the use we wish to make,” he said. The requirements concerning public trailer parks do not apply, he said, since this would be a private operation. Zoning Appeals Board member H.M. Forward wanted to know how Weil would prevent any of the 1500 “owners” of the recreation area from sub-letting to other camper trailer owners. “They have nothing to sublet,” Weil maintained, since they wouldn’t own individual lots. “But they have a privilege” to bring their trailers there, Forward said. \o Weil said there are three camper trailer parking areas, totaling 11 acres, already “in existence.” So, he assured his listeners, “we don’t intend to go out tearing up the slopes.” Weil said the state of Virginia has strict standards regarding the site plan for camper trailer parks, and he’d have to abide by those. The state requires a parking space of 1600 square feet for each trailer, he said. In addition to parking for 150 camper trailers, the maximum See Page 8 Southern States August SALE on Unico Exterior Paints PAY LESS FOR PROLONGED PROTECTION THRU AUGUST 16 White Exterior Latex House Paint Good results—low price Ready for second coat in 30 minutes No. 341 Sale *4.98 * White General Purpose Paint b^.

Recreation area permit is denied From Page 7 number to be allowed on the property at one time, there will be parking for 600 cars, Weil said. “You can’t presuppose 1,500 owners will all have campers,” he said. Anyway, “we’d like to think of the campers as minor.” Anyone who wanted to bring their camper to the property would have to call the property manager in advance, to make sure there’d be space, Weil said. Anyone who came by car could come anytime. Mildred Fletcher asked what kinds of camper trailers would be permitted. Weil said “pop-ups, self-contained vans and trailer units” pulled behind cars would be considered as campers. A trailer longer than 29 feet is not considered a camper trailer, but a mobile home trailer. Ian Pryde wondered if motorcycle riding would be permitted inside the recreation area. Weil said it would not. The by-laws of the property owners association would prevent it. Josef Gardiner, chairman of the Zoning Appeals Board, asked if the by-laws could be changed later. Weil said they could, but added that the zoning appeals board could place permanent restrictions or conditions upon the special use permit. PHIL IRWIN, president of the Rappahannock' League for Environmental Protection, asked if Weil had applied for water, sewer and health permits needed for a public recreation operation. Weil said he’d wait to do that until after the special use permit was granted. Irvin asked Weil if he’d still apply for the state permits even if he found they weren’t required in order to operate a private recreational resort. Weil said he thought most of the health permits \ would be required anyway, whether the operation was public or private. Irwin said members of RLEP were disappointed that all aspects of the recreational development would be private. He wondered how much one of the 1500 shares would cost. Weil sort of hedged. Irwin asked if it were safe to assume “You either don’t want to tell us or you haven’t figured it out yet.” Weil said the shares would be priced for “as much as we can make it and still sell.” Probably more than $2,000 and less than $5,000, he said, finally. Mrs. Gladys Hofstadler said she lives near the Piney River campground and litter is a problem after every weekend and holiday. What guarantee could Weil offer that this would be different? Weil said he couldn’t make any guarantee, but he surmised that this would be less of a problem at a private campground, like his, than in a public one. People who had ownership in something would be more careful, Weil stated. Mrs. Hofstadler wondered if hunting would be allowed on the property. Weil said no. She also asked if the 1,500 future owners would be individuals or businesses which might bring “a Grayline bus” full of people out. Only individuals, or a husband and wife, he said. Elizabeth Haskell wondered how many people could be expected to use the recreation area on an average day. “Never more than 20 per cent at one time,” Weil said, adding “on a good ski weekend it would be different.” “There are so many things that bother me about this being private,” June Jordan said. She asked Weil if he really thought people would pay $5,000 for the right to park a camper trailer for a few days at a time on a site with no trees. None of the parking areas Weil indicated earlier had trees, she said. “Once you start selling” the plans will have to change, she predicted. “But that’s their problem,” H. L. Manwaring, a member of the zoning appeals board, said. Weil agreed. “We could go bankrupt,” he said, with a shrug of his shoulders. JUNE JORDAN also wondered if the horseback riding Weil had said the recreation area would UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT DESIRES LISTINGS FOR ACQUISITION OF AVAILABLE FAMILY HOUSING The United States Army intends to construct 211 family housing units at Walter Reed Army Medical Center, Glen Haven Section, Montgomery County, Maryland to provide housing for married military personnel assigned to that installation. The 211 units will consist of 126 2-Bedroom Garden Type Apartments, 45 3-Bedroom Townhouse or Duplex type units, and 40 4-Bedroom Townhouse or Duplex type units. Pursuant to Section 111 of Public Law 93-636, the Army will consider the acquisition by purchase of an equal or lesser number of existing privately owned housing units which are vacant, complete for occupancy and meet the Army's requirements. Such units must consist of not less than 50 units grouped contiguously to each other and be within rush hour commuting distance of one hour of Walter Reed Army Medical Center (Georgia Avenue and Aspen Street, Washington, D. C.). Proposals to sell must be submitted to U.S. Army Engineer District, Baltimore, ATTN: Real Estate Division, P.O.

Weil said no. There is already “a stable with four compartments” on the ski area property, he said. Joyce Andrews said she was worried about pollution of the Rush River, since her children swim in it downstream from the ski area. Henry Eastwood noted there are only a few gas stations in Rappahannock within a short driving distance of the ski area. Would Weil provide extra gas or would there be shortages, affecting local people, he asked. Weil said the health department would protect the public with regards to sewage and as for a gas shortage, he couidn’t predict how the future property owners association would deal with that. George Muth, a member of the zoring appeals board, said he was disappointed that Weil had not submitted more information detailing what the impact of the recreation development on Rappahannock County would be. “You haven’t given us very much as an applicant,” Muth said. “It’s impossible to get” the kind of information Muth wanted, Weil said. Fanning Baumgardner read a report prepared by the Planning Commission which said the county had collected $12,000 in taxes from the ski area between 1964 and 1975 and had spent $58,000 in maintenance, mainly for roads, to serve the ski area. That was when the ski area was open less than half a year. The taxes would stay the same and the expenditures would go up if a recreation development were open all year long at the ski area, the planning commission report suggested. Weil argued that many businesses probably get more “tax benefit” out of roads than they put into them. George Davis though the ski area development would bring “severe encumbrances without a cor-' responding benefit” to the public. H. L. Manwaring asked to hear from “the public officials.” PETER KRAMER, Mayor of Washington, said he was worried about traffic congestion in the town of Washington which would be generated by the ski area development. He was concerned about the problems which would occur when a car pulling a trailer tried to negotiate the corner at the Cash Store. Kramer said he was also worried about the additional road maintenance costs and the burden several hundred additional weekend residents would place upon local police, fire department and rescue services. Kramer disputed Weil’s claim that private campgrounds would have less litter than public ones. The public campgrounds he’s visited, Kramer said, have been cleaner than private ones. Pete Luke, chairman of Rappahannock’s Supervisors, said he, too, was worried about the “hidden costs” of the development. “When growth comes, additional services are required” and “protection is a county responsibility.” It could be that the number of regular weekend vacationers at the ski area will mean that the sheriff’s department has to add a deputy. And people in his district have made it clear, Luke said, that they don’t want to see county money used for “private gain.” Zoning Appeals Board member H. L. Manwaring said he’d been listening to hear what advantages the ski area development would offer to offset the expense and disadvantages it would bring to the county. He’d heard of none, Man waring concluded. Chris Byrd said he regarded the ski area development proposal as a storm coming when there’s still more hay to get up. “Have you ever waited to change a tire at Merle’s (the gas station in Washington) when there’s 10 cars ahead of you?” he asked. NEWBILL MILLER expressed a concern Peter Kramer had voiced earlier. Once developer Weil has sold three quarters of the 1,500 shares, the recreation area will be administered by the directors of a property owners association, the by-laws of which are subject to change. “I think we’d be entering into a contract with someone we don’t know,” Miller said. Zoning Appeals Board member H. N. Forward made a motion that the special use permit be denied, because approval would be injurious to the safety and welfare and contrary to the public interest of Rappahannock citizens. “Add health to that and I’ll second it,” George Muth said. It was done. The vote for denial was unanimous. □ Wayne - Red Rose ^ - Animal Health Products - Wayne & Purina Dog & Cat Food - Custom Blended Fertilizers Lime - Rock Phosphate Spreader Service Marshall Feed & Supply, Inc* CompUte Farm Service Center TWO LOCATIONS Marshall 364-1501 The Ptaias 253-5261

Zoning \exception’ is recommended From Page 1 inheriting, and sometime that has to be by partition.” “You have a discretion,” Lancaster told the Supervisors. “You are wrong only when you abuse that discretion. We’re not interlopers. We belong here. I’ve been coming here for 35 years,” he said. (Earlier, T. C. Lea had noted that Lancaster had served as chairman of the zoning commission of Bridgeport, Conn.) John H. Williams, the oldest of the heirs spoke next. His family has been in Rappahannock County since Reconstruction days and before. “My father, Mr. Joe Keyser, and Mr. Raymond Slaughter were responsible for bringing a power line into the Tiger Valley for people to hook on,” he said. “I could tell instances of heroic acts by my family during the Civil War, but they would not be appropriate here,” Williams said. What bothered him, Williams continued, was that the h’eyton Farm, not too far away from the Williams land, had been subdivided. “How much more effect will the Williams heirs have on Rappahannock than all of those?” he asked. “We want the privilege to build. All of us might not build. This property fronts on three different highways (secondary roads). There won’t be any great congestion.” Joseph Williams said he didn’t want to repeat what’s being said, “but I like Virginia and I like this county and I like little Washington. I worked on the Slaughter and Keyser Farms as a little boy. I’ve helped to build stone houses. At the age of 12 I weiled stone and mixed mortar. I feel I’ve contributed something here,” he said. CAROL WILLIAMS said she didn’t want to “wave any flags,” but she had been a school teacher in Rappahannock for many years and she felt she’d contributed something, too. She named some of her former pupils and their accomplishments when they grew up. Susan Lafayette Williams said she felt her father had contributed a lot to Rappahannock and she felt it was an “injustice that his chil dren couldn’t inherit his property.” Ed Harris told the Supervisors he had come to the meeting to present another matter, but after listening to the Williams case he wanted to speak on that. Harris said he was in sympathy with the ordinance which tried to protect the rural character of Rappahannock. “But this is a very human issue. I think it would be a gross misreading of the law to deny them this right. Can’t we do something to make an exception?” Wit Kuncewicz said he, too, had come for another matter. “But the zoning ordinance was born in turmoil and sweat. It is to project the Williams as well as everyone else. I’d like to appeal to both parties to find a way to accomodate the Williams without destroying the zoning ordinance,” he said. NED JONES, county clerk, admitted he usually doesn’t speak at public hearings, but he’d make an exception in this case. Jones said he remembered when the clause permitting parents to give two acres to five children was discussed. “We talked then about what would happen in this situation,” he said, adding that the intent of those who drafted the ordinance was to see that something could be worked out to provide for each child. William Keim worried that granting the Williams rezoning request would have application countywide. “Let’s see if we can get around this without establishing a precedent,” he said. Henry Eastwood said that “being a friend of the Williams, I’m about to come unglued, but I hope I can keep it together enough to finish.” Eastwood continued, ‘‘I sincerely hope they can get what they want and something can be done which will cause no hard feelings.” John Williams spoke again. “This isn’t setting a precedent. The lifestyle of this area isn’t 25 acre lots. Look at Peyton place. Those people aren’t farmers. How did they get their four and eight acres? We’ve been here overalOO years but the people who’ve been here 15 don’t want those houses because they won’t look good,” he said. His in-law, John Lancaster, spoke again. “We’re not asking you to change the law, but to grant a variance,” he said. John Williams said he thought the problem was some people felt new black houses would contaminate the air. But “it’s been beautiful air always, and always will be,” he said. “IT’S ONLY been a few years since this zoning ordinance came about, and it’s brought discord and trouble ever since,” Boyd Brown said. “Children who are unborn today will read about this and say “What was wrong with these people?” Brown said. “You readjust a piece of equipment when it doesn’t work, you should be able to do the same to the ordinance,” he said, adding he didn’t think anyone opposed the Williams request just because they’re colored. Champlin Carey said his family had lived in Rappahannock County 13 years. If the board granted this variance, they’d have to grant more, so what would the county be like in 40 years when he comes back to Rappahannock to live. “You’ve got to think of the future, but who is thinking about these people?” Charles Brown asked. Pat Saltonstall said she supported the Rappahannock League of Environmental Protection and their goals to keep Rappahannock rural, but, speaking as an individual, she though “I’ve never heard a more eloquent and compelling reason for an exeption.” Frances Slaughter Keyser said the Williams had been associated with her family for several generations. “I’m glad they want to come back. Please grant them a variance.” “It doesn’t take a public hearing to decide the Williams are a good family,” Newbill Miller said. “From an emotional standpoint the rezoning would have to be granted, but what about the requests beyond the Wiliams? The ‘little man’ suffers most when the zoning ordinances are relaxed. The county must look 10 or 15 MILLER TOYOTA S.H.M.C.Y.M.C.B.F.M.T. * Our new 5 speeds can have you gaining from gear to gear SR-5 Corona SR5 Corolla E5 Corolla SR5 Sport Truck Corona E5 Celica GT See How Much Car Your Money Can Buy From Miller Toyota MILLER of MANASSAS tJIr. 7852 8566 Smiley Rd. Manassas, Va. 368 7111 years ahead and make sure public health and welfare are protected, Miller said. He added that he feared the exception would soon become the law. Two county lawyers, George Davis and Jim Bill Fletcher had presented different views on zoning and land use over the years, but they both agree if the county doesn’t stop granting exceptions, the exceptions will become the law, Newbill Miller said. Michale Marsh said he too knew the Williams and liked them, “but if you let this thing through, all hell’s gonna break loose.” Phil Irwin, “speaking only for myself and not RLEP,” asked the Supervisors to grant the variance. FANNING BAUMGARDNER reminded the Supervisors that the Planning Commission had hosted a hearing on the Williams request and all 28 people who attended were opposed to the rezoning. Only one of the Williams heirs, Lewis Butler had attended that hearing and he didn’t speak. Attorney T. C. Williams had asked that it be continued, since he had a conflicting appointment. But the planners had already advertised the public hearing and decided to go ahead. “We could debate this family situation for two weeks,” Pete Luke said. Supervisor Clarence Baldwin said he didn’t think the law was fair, to stop at five children. “The Williams have made a persuasive case for an exception, but not for a rezoning, and that’s what they’ve asked for,” Luke said. H. B. Wood, Herbert Foster and Clarence Barksdale agreed. The Supervisors decided to send the request back to the planning commission and directed the attoneys for the Williams heirs and the county to get together and see if they could work out an exception that wouldn’t affect the entire ordinance.—Pekay Pettus FIRE, RESCUE Washington Rescue Squad took Junior Woodard from the home of Paul Burke in Harris Hollow to Warren Memorial Hospital on August 5.

Insurance premiums will not be collected at this time but will be paid to the child’s teacher immediately after the opening of school. The spelling texts will come up for adoption in 1977 and the newly adopted dictionaries will not be available until next year, therefore if possible it would be wise to get second hand ones. Student lunches will be 40tf this session and ice cream will be 10 and 15 cents.□ WOODVILLE NEWS By MRS.
