Rappahannock News, October 21, 1976

Landfill hearing postponed By MEMORY PORTER CLASHING legal opinions at the Rappahannock Board of Zoning Appeals meeting on October 21 brought a public hearing on a proposed privately owned landfill to an abrupt adjournment midway through the public testimony. E. B. and Ruth Updike, as owners of Community Trash Company, were before the Board of Zoning Appeals seeking a special use permit to operate a sanitary landfill on 36.92 acres located on Route 522 between Culpeper and Sperryville. Warrenton attorney Francis Greene, representing an adjacent Ski area future to be discussed The future of the Rappahannock Ski Corporation property in Harris Hollow will be discussed by the corporation’s president Janies A. Moore at a special meeting sponsored by the Rappahannock League for Environmental Protection to be held Friday, November 5, at 8 p.m. in the Rappahannock Courthouse. Harris has agreed to describe various options under study to operate and reopen the facility. The meeting is open to the public and comments, questions and suggestions will be taken. □ landowner who is opposed to the location of the landfill, raised the question of whether the Updikes had legal standing to even apply for the landfill permit. Reading from the county’s code, which Greene said was lifted directly from the state law, a special use permit application can be made by only “a property owner, a tenant or a government official.” At the beginning of the hearing Updike stated that he had a contract to buy the property, conditional nn first nhtainincr tho cnemial ncf» permit to operate the landfill at the site. Greene argued that this was “a mere option” to purchase the land and therefore the Updikes did not have legal standing before the Board. Rappahannock Commonwealth ’ s Attorney George Davis disagreed. He advised the Board members that the Updikes, as contract buyers, were within their legal rights to apply for the permit. GREENE asked that the “technical” legal question be put aside for the moment to discuss the feasibility of the particular site. “It seems clear to us that the applicant has not established that the landfill would not be hazardous or injurious to the character of the neighborhood,” he stated. Assisting him in that line of reasoning was another attorney, JohnMears. Mears suggested that the Updikes had not provided any information to the Board that the site was suitable for a landfill other than it was available for purchase. Davis interrupted, saying the opponents could not raise a legal procedural objection and then continue to discuss the application. “We’ll let the Board decide that,” said Admiral J. M. Gardner, Chairman of the Board of Zoning Appeals, adding that it might save holding a second hearing. Davis crossed the room to confer with Pete Luke, Chairman of the Board of Supervisors, quickly returning with a request that the special use permit be amended to make the Board of Supervisors a party to the application. Confusion reigned. “On what authority?” asked Mears. “AS ATTORNEY to the Board of Supervisors,” Davis snapped. Luke added that since the Supervisors had gone on record favoring a private landfill versus a county-owned site he, “as Chairman, taking advice of counsel” asked that the Supervisors become part of the application. “Otherwise we are stymied.. .We have asked contractors to try and solve our problem so we are in fact a party whether it is this contractor or any other who won the bid,” Luke stated. BZA member Hal Forward said he thought the entire Board of Supervisors should be involved in a decision to become actual participants in the landfill permit. Davis insisted his motion be voted See Pace 3 Costume ball set Mrs. Virginia Miller reports that reservations for the Bicentennial costume ball on November 12 are rapidly coming in. “This promises to be the big event of the fall season and the most fun,” she said. “The orchestra that has been engaged can play music to suit dancers of all ages.

MRS. SARAH C. LATHAM, Managing Editor Telephone Washington 675-3349 Land and people A LETTER writer this week has raised again a question often stated in relation to land use issues. He worries that to be for wise land use, preservation of open spaces andprotection of agricultural acres, is, somehow, to be against people. “People have to live somewhere,” is the way the dilemma is often addressed. “Are you against people having an opportunity to move out to the country?” is another way the alleged “elitism” of conservationists and preservationists is criticized. The immediate answer to these questions is obvious: If everyone moved to Rappahannock County (or Fauquier, or Loudoun or Culpeper or wherever), then there wouldn’t be any open land to preserve. Common sense indicates that somewhere along the line, too many people would add up to a ruined environment. Look at New York City and environs; look at industrialized Northern New Jersey; look at the in-close Washington, D.C., suburbs. Another aspect of the reply to accusations that conservationists are bad neighbors is to note the fact that not everyone who moves out of the city into the suburbs or the countryside does so be cause he loves the land or open space. He moves out of the city for many reasons, but few because of a seeking for bucolic simplicity — else why do so many suburbanites immediately start clamoring for city schools, city type streets and gutters, city-sized policeforces, urban recreational programs? SAVING farmland is not something that can be done in the midst of unlimited, uncontrolled “development.” The two simply do not go together. That doesn’t mean shutting the door to everyone, but it does mean setting up door checks to make sure the house isn’t spoiled by overcrowding. Rappahannock is a rural county with a rural lifestyleone tempered sharply, it is true, by recent trends set by weekenders and retirees. But it has been our understanding’ that people have moved here recently because Rappahannock is rural, open, clean and beautiful. Surely they don’t want to see that scrapped now out of some notion that we, somehow, have an obligation to accept every developer who’d like to make a quick buck and then move on to some other unspoiled county to repeat the process.□ RCHS needs heln Editor: Several interested citizens and parents of students attending and participating in athletics at Rappahannock County High School have expressed concern as to the extremely poor condition of the basketball scoreboard. The present scoreboard has structural damage and efforts to repair these damages have been totally unsuccessful. Inquiry was made as to the cost of a new board and we find this to be approximately $1,800. Obviously, the Rappahannock High School Athletic Department has no funds with which to purchase the scoreboard and unless we gain contributions throughout the entire County, a new board will be impossible. Thus far we have been very fortunate in receiving contributions from a small number of interested and generous people; however, we do need the support of the entire County to reach our goal. We appeal to you, the citizens and parents of our County, to help our young people and our school by contributing to this extremely worthwhile cause. Athletic events are an important part of any school and we personally feel that it is important for our students to have the same opportunities as students in surrounding schools. All contributions are tax deductible and any individual or business contributing as much as $100 will become a member of “The Century Club” for 1976-77. These names will be placed in an appropriate place in the school for proper recognition. Won’t you please help our students and our school by sending your contribution today to Rappahannock County High School Athletic Department, c/o Mrs. Doris D. Gore, P.O.

The public is invited to attend. Letters to the editor New popsicle is not ‘junk food* Editor: We read with interest Mrs. Sharon Kilpatrick’s criticism of the “junk foods” sold in the schools, particularly thepopsicles during the afternoon recess. Unless someone else has already suggested it, I believe that she and others will be interested in the enclosed article about the University of Florida doctor and researcher who developed Gatorade and now a popsicle, called “Ten Plus.” According to this article, the popsicle is being distributed, nationwise, so surely its distributor in the Virginia area can be located. We enjoy reading the paper weekly, especially feature stories about local events and people. Dorothy R. Smith P.S. Other alternatives for the refreshment break—milk, apple juice, or water! Editor’s note—The following is taken from an article in the Orlando Star, Orlando, Fla: Dr. James R. Cade, professor of medicine and the inventor of Gatorade, has a new discovery on the market—a popsicle that is both nutritious and tasty. The new product, called Ten Plus, is a high-protein popsicle, financed by the Popsicle Industries of America, and the inventor claims that one of the frozen, chewy snacks is as nutritious as a hot school lunch. “The school lunch,” Cade claims, “frequently goes in the garbage to feed the pigs. But the kids eat dessert.” Each Ten Plus contains the eight essential amino acids, the building blocks of protein and is also comprised of calcium, phosphate, minerals, all the B vitamins in measurable amounts, plus vitamins A and C. Best of all, Cade and others who have tried the product, report that it tastes good. “The protein serves as an antifreeze. The regular Popsicle is icy and kind of hard,” said Cade. Ten Plus “freezes with a much smaller crystal and makes it into a chewy consistancy,” It melts very slowly and contains only 86 calories. “You could live on Ten Plus,” maintained Cade. “If a child had nothing but one of these at 10 in the morning, one at noon and another in the afternoon, he’d have good enough nutrition to mature in normal fashion.” Popsicle Industries produces the mix at its home plant in New Jersey, then it’s shipped out with wrappers and sticks to be distributed by local plants. In Florida Ten Plus sells for 20 cents in vending machines and 25 cents in the University’s cafeteria. Cade said he thought the product would sell for 96 cents for a box of six in the supermarkets. “It’s going all over the country, and Canada, I think,” commented Cade. “How quickly depends on the wholesaler and retailer.” □ Don’t be an island Editor: In renewing my subscription to the Rappahannock News, I wanted to register a mild protest to the tone of the editorials during the past several months. They seem to withdraw the welcome mat for new residents. According to a recent survey (by the Overseas Development Council and the U.S. Coalition for Development) two-thirds of Americans, 18-25 years old, identify pollution and over population as the number one and two most serious world problems. I agree with the young Americans and feel that we should work toward solutions to these two problems. As a “weekender” in Rappahannock County, I, too, would like to see it remain rural, agricultural and unpolluted. However, I think we should all look occasionally at the bigger picture. In the Christian sense we are our “Brother’s Keepers.” There are many many people that need to be housed and fed. We even admit over 400,000 legal immigrants to the United States each year! They, in addition to our own growing population, must have places to live and work. So where does this leave Rappahannock County? I think it should continue to be open to new settlers but, hopefully, with an eye on planned growth to minimize increased pollution and over population of the County. But I don’t believe the good citizens of the^ lty want to remain an island lemselves. I think this should be"Vecognized in your editorials. Walter W. Jones McLean Award for the News Editor: Will you please publish the enclosed letter, with which the Rappahannock Unit of the American Cancer Society wholeheartedly agrees. To paraphrase a TV jingle, “when you say professionalism, you’ve said it all,” and I’m sure the many other organizations in the county join with us in saying that we have always known Mrs. Latham as a dedicated professional who gives us news articles that are accurate, readable and comprehensive. We all extend to her congratulations foj* receiving the award and bravos for her years of public services. Mrs. Robert Rodgers As Chairman of the Public Information Committee of the American Cancer Society, Virginia Division, I am pleased to inform you that/ “The Rappahannock News” has been selected as a recipient of a' Certificate of Merit for its assistance in informing the public about cancer. The Certificate of Merit will be presented at the time of the Awards Luncheon which concludes the Division’s Annual Meeting October 28-29. The luncheon will be held at 1 p.m. on Friday, October 29, in the Ballroom of the Hotel Roanoke in Roanoke. We would like to invite you to attend the luncheon and receive the award at that time. A special press table will be located at the front of the room. I would like to add that the American.Cancer Society is most grateful to you and ‘ ‘The Rappahannock News” for your many contributions through the years in the fight against cancer.

Landfill hearing postponed From Page 1 upon. Another Board member, George Muth, instead moved that the Appeals Board adjourn in order to get legal counsel on the need to readvertise the permit application should the Board of Supervisors become joint petitioners for the landfill. Again, Davis emphatically stated that readvertising would not be necessary. Muth’s motion to adjourn was quietly seconded by Forward. Davis again demanded that his motion be considered. There’s no question in the world that the Supervisors have legal standing to be a party to the application,” he stated. “There is a question in our mind and you are not running this meeting,” Chairman Gardner countered. Davis, who does not sit on the Board of Zoning Appeals, can not make a motion and when Gardner asked if any Board members would like to entertain Davis’s motion, there was silence in the room. The question was called on the motion to adjourn and with a quick unanimous voice vote the meetine closed. THE hearing had begun with Supervisor Luke giving the history of the trash problem in Rappahannock that led to the Updikes seeking a landfill site in the county. Community Trash was apparent low bidder for the 1977 Rappahannock trash contract, and was awarded the contract at the August Board of Supervisors meeting. The bids from the Updikes were at a 12-month cost of $33,616 if the trash company had to find its own disposal site and a higher bid of $43,616 if the county provided the landfill site. Mrs. Updike said at the time the bids were opened that they were expecting to continue to have access to the Orange County landfill for disposing the Rappahannock trash. But when the Orange County bids were opened a few days after the Updikes were awarded the Rappahannock trash contract, they were underbid. Luke explained that the Orange County Supervisors have now given Rappahannock notice that use of the Orange County landfill must be stopped in 90 days. Luke related that both the Rappahannock Supervisors and Planning Commission have been trying to locate a site for a landfill within the county since late 1975 with no success. “Where there is suitable land there were no sellers,” he related. The “real dilemma” before the Supervisors had *- been whether to go with a private landfill, dependent on a willing Loneliness Everybody Needs Somebody All The Time During the loss of a loved one, lonilines.s can be so overwhelming.

Ya. seller or to go with a publicly owned landfill by condemning a site. “Torn between keeping taxes down” and a county owned landfill, he asserted that if the county were to acquire a landfill there would have to be some increase in the county tax rate. “We decided to give private enterprise a chance to work... and now have a buyer and seller,” he said, adding that the “adjoining property owners carry some weight, but not a whole lot,” because there will always be some complaints by landowners adjacent to any landfill site. In response to a question from Davis, Luke said the supervisors supported this particular location for the landfill. ALTHOUGH there are some federal grants available for the county to purchase a landfill site, Luke said that it was too late to apply for the funds this year and he was not aware of how much money would be available for the coming year. BZA member H. L. Manwaring asked if there would be any savings in the trash contract if the county owned the landfill, and was told again by Luke that “just the opposite was true”; the contract with Community Trash is $10,000 less if the county does not own the site. (Mrs. Updike has told a Rappahannock News reporter that the figures on the contract were mistakenly reversed; but when the bids were opened in August she decided they had to live with the mistake. Community Trash was awarded the contract as low bidder.) Mears asked Luke on what grounds other than availability of the site did the Supervisors support the site. He replied that two soil scientists from VPI had visited the site and while there was “not 100 percent feasibility.. .my position and the Board of Supervisors’ position is to solve a problem... this property is available and on the surface looked suitable” said Luke. (Contacted later, H. G. Epperson, the soil extension specialist with the Agronomy Department at VPI who surveyed the site with Luke, said that in his opinion, “only three to four acres” of the 36-acre site would be acceptable for a landfill. The problem with the site, according to Epperson, is that the slopes there present potential drainage problems with contamination to the waterways through the property. He said the soil depth on the property on the slopes ranges from “zero to about three feet, with rock outcroppings in some places.”) DISTRICT Solid Waste Management Director R. H. Foreman advised that the state code required the county to provide for some form of solid waste disposal. There are two alternatives, a landfill site or an incineration system, he said. With the “prohibitive” expense of meeting state air pollution standards, solid waste could be handled at one-tenth of the cost by the use of a land im. Any discussion oi recycling the trash would be “dreams only,” until the economic picture changed, he said, adding that the “last recession blew those dreams out of the basket.” Foreman claimed that the “smell” at the Fairfax landfill on Interstate 66 isn’t there today because the landfill operation has been corrected. Any smell now could only be attributed to the reclamation area where they are using a soil conditioner (sludge from sewer treatment plants). People play ball and picnic next to the landfill in Fairfax County, Foreman continued,*^ “something they could not do if the smell still existed.” The problem with the Fairfax landfill in the past had been the “old way” of compacting the trash. “We prescribe complete compaction so that no air or water can get to the compacted waste, permitting no leaching or gases. Foreman said the Updikes have both the equipment and a good record at the Orange County landfill to do a proper job. ALTHOUGH the law concerning landfills has no penalties for violations, he maintained he had “roughly 90 percent compliance” with the operators of landfills to comply with the regulations. “We can remove a permit, but our cooperation has been so good, we haven’t had to do it.” Foreman said he had only given a cursory look at the site. He had walked around it and looked at the soil maps and had decided “basically” it could be a good site. “We’ve got a long way to go, but will do nothing until you approve the use permit, Foreman told the Appeals Board. He suggested the permit be approved, subject to the site being found suitable. Eventual use of the land would be pasture or playground, but he could not envision “heavy housing on the site after the landfill was reclaimed, unless an area was set aside for future septic fields. Suitable landfill sites can go as deep as 70 feet, but in Rappahannock County, Foreman said, they would be “lucky” to find a site with a soil depth of 15 to 16 feet. “If there is not a soil depth of over 12 feet we would have to look for another site,” Foreman stated. He later commented that if the soil depths on the site proved to be less than that, the landfill “could always go up in the air,” changing the contour of the land. One square acre, six feet deep would take care of the solid waste disposal for a population of 6,000 for one year, Foreman stated. ADMIRAL Gardner asked if there were any witnesses in favor of the landfill permit. There were none. As Greene and Mears led off with the opposition’s viewpoint, the legal arguments were raised and the meeting abruptly ended. The use permit will be readvertised for another Board of Zoning Appeals hearing. □ We’ve got the low-cost new car loan that will save you money. COME AND GET IT. Go ahead.

Book report deadlines are nearing THE annual Rappahannock County Library Book Report Contest is under way for pre-high school and high school students of the County, and the first group is reminded that number one of their two reports is due October 22. Tlie second report is due on or before November 5, the same closing date for high school entries. All books or articles read for the contest must be obtained at the Rappahannock County Library where the librarians will give help in choosing material. Suggested length is about 350 words, but no precise length has been set. Reports may be typed or handwritten (if neat and legible). Contestants are allowed freedom in organizing the reports, and advice maybe solicited from teachers, parents, librarians, or others, but the report must express in the student’s own words what he got from the reading. Each report must state: the title of the book or article (if article, give also the name of magazine or periodical in which it was found); author’s name; illustration, if any; publisher (of a book). In addition, a printed entry slip, available at the principal’s office, teacher, or at the County Library, must accompany each report. This slip bears a number which will be used on each report instead of a name or other identification which must not appear on any entry, to insure impartial judging.

For a lower cost of living through a lower cost of government “What we don’t need in Washington’,’ Senator Byrd says, “are more big spenders in the Senate’.’ He believes that the primary cause for inflation is the reckless spending of the federal government and resulting record deficits. “The huge and accumulated deficits;’ he says, “are mortgaging the future of our young people and forcing up interest rates. “Inflation is a hidden and cruel tax which eats into every wage-earner’s paycheck and every housewife’s grocery dollar. It hits hardest those on fixed incomes and those in the lower and middle economic brackets. “We will not get the cost of living under control until we get the cost of government under control’,’ Harry Byrd continues, “and the place to start is in the high levels of government;’ He voted against increasing his own salary by opposing automatic cost-of-living increases for the Congress. For freedom for Virginia's fanners Knowing that adequate food production can only be achieved with a minimum of government control, Harry Byrd has voted to exclude small farms from oppressive OSHA regulations. He has also voted to strengthen beef markets, opposed an excessive tax increase on one of our leading farm products, and supported an increase in the federal estate tax exemption to encourage preservation of Virginia’s family farms. For strict, fair law enforcement Harry Byrd supports the efforts of law officers to reduce crime, and he has voted for both the death penalty for violent federal crimes; and for mandatory sentences for “hard” narcotics pushers and for those convicted of federal crimes involving handguns. But he opposes additional federal gun controls, wide-scale domestic wiretapping and “no-knock” search and seizure laws as violations of your rights as a law-abiding citizen. For government that serves the people Harry Byrd believes that government should be responsive to the people; he also believes there is a distinct difference between helpful government leadership and disruptive government interference. To help reduce the mushrooming cost and power of the federal bureaucracy and make the government more responsive to the real desires of the people, Senator Byrd has introduced legislation requiring periodic review of more than 1000 federal agencies— and the elimination of those agencies that cannot justify their costs or their actions.

Such objects could cause the lineman’s climbing spur to “cut out” possibly resulting in a fall or other serious injury. Placing of any type of sign on utility poles is prohibited by law. Any signs attached to PE poles will be removed, the company said. n APPLES GOING The 1976 Apple Season is fast drawing to a close.

There are three designs to choose from: White with red Noel motif; black with gold signs of the Zodiac; and yellow with a smiling face design that says, Have a Good Day!
