Rappahannock News, December 9, 1976

Loaded gun law held illegal By MEMORY PORTER RAPPAHANNOCK County’s ordinance outlawing a “loaded rifle or shotgun in a motor vehicle” within the. county was ruled invalid by General District Court Judge William Carson on November 16. The county’s game warden, Jim Bankston, advised the Rappahannock Supervisors of this at their December 2 meeting. On July 1 the Supervisors, upon the recommendation of Bankston, voted unanimously to advertise their intent to adopt state enabling legislation making it “unlawful for any person to transport, possess or carry a loaded shotgun or loaded rifle in any vehicle on any public street, road or highway” within the county. The intent was to adopt the state code for the county at the Board’s September meeting. After the September meeting the Supervisors believed the ordinance had been officially adopted. However, on November 15 County deputy Martin Orfilia charged two out-of-county men with “discharging a firearm from a vehicle” and with “carrying a loaded firearm in the car.” The next day Judge Carson dismissed the charges against the two hunters because the county had failed to adopt a properly worded county ordinance, Bankston explained. “WHAT did we do wrong?” asked Chairman Pete Luke of Commonwealth’s Attorney George Davis, who advises the Board on legal matters. Davis told the Supervisors that they had failed to draft a county ordinance prior to the public notices that had appeared in the Rappahannock News. The r> Supervisors had also failed to hold a public hearing on the proposed ordinance, allowing “the citizens the right to come in to support or oppose it.” Supervisor E. M. Eastham, who had in July seconded Supervisor H. B. Wood’s motion to adopt the state law for the county, expressed misgivings about the law. “Since the law doesn’t seem to be effective and Davis won’t prosecute it.. “If it is properly adopted, I’ll prosecute,” Davis interrupted. (At the July meeting Davis had advised the Supervisors that in his view a loophole had been left in the state enabling legislation be cause any person “who reasonably believes that a loaded rifle or shotgun is necessary for his person safety, in the course of The large barn on the Jay Dawson farm near Huntly was destroyed by fire just after 4 midnight Tuesday. Mr. and Mrs. Dawson restored and renovated the building as a recreation center and this is where the RLEP Halloween dances have been held. The fire is being investigated. Board sidesteps landfill issue THE Rappahannock Supervisors sidestepped the issue of whether the county intended to stay with the concept of a private landfill in the county, or to support a county - owned site, at the December 2 meeting. Community Trash, owned by E.B. and Ruth Updike, was awarded a three-year contract to handle Rappahannock County’s trash in August 1976. The contract with Community Trash made no mention of where or how the Updikes would dispose of the trash. At the time, Community Trash hoped to be able to continue using the Orange County landfill, but on August 9 the company was underbid by a Ri chmond firm and was advised by the Orange County Supervisors that the Orange landfill would be closed to Rappahannock County within 90 days. (At that time, Commonwealth’s Attorney George Davis pointed out to the Supervisors and Mrs. Updike that the collected trash was the personal property of the Updikes and they would have the responsibility of finding a disposal site.) At last Thursday’s meeting, Davis remembered the letting of the contract a bit differently. He indicated that the Supervisors had been aware of the option the Updikes have on 36 acres located on Route 522 between Culpeper and Sperryville. “You passed a resolution in support of the Updike’s contract...If you don’t want to enter a contract with the Updike’s that something else,” Davis stated. THE Updikes have applied for a special use permit from the county’s Board of Zoning Appeals to operate a privately owned landfill on the property, but because of legal questions raised by opponents to the proposed landfill permits, the Board on Zoning Appeals tabled the application at its October meeting. The Appeals Board is scheduled to continue the public hearing on the proposal on December 9. Board of Supervisor Chairman Pete Luke announced he had written BZA Chairman Josef Gardner that the decision on the special use permit should be made on the basis of the suitability of the land and that decision must rest with state agency in charge of solid waste management. The letter noted that the Supervisors were relying on a private solution to the county’s trash disposal problems “at this time.” The county just did not have the funds to purchase a landfill site and although there were some funding sources available, there were See Page 10 I

MRS. SARAH C. LATHAM, Managing Editor ^ Telephone Washington 675-3349 Country Christmas CHRISTMAS is a special time of the year everywhere, but especially in this part of the country. Things that other people experience only through Christmas card illustrations are part of our daily lives. Woodpiles and wintry meadows, foxhunters and farm animals, kids skating on ponds and streams (if they’re shallow enough to be frozen), traces of snow, picturesque and bustling towns, classic churches punctuating the horizon, farmyards with geese and turkeys—almost everywhere you turn in this Virginia countryside, there’s a satisfying prospect, a comfortable awareness of tradition and community. Even Christmas shopping is different. Woe unto those who must venture into the crowded city, or who brave the asphalt expanses of “regional” shopping centers—a description which designates only the cold-blooded calculations of merchandising expectations, not the special flavor of a very special part of the nation. People who live out here know where the best fresh turkeys can be bought, which shop has a relative’s old favorite whatever (and who can get it for you if it’s not in stock), and shopping can be done with friends, on both sides of the counter, who really care about those old catch ^words of the retail trade, quality and service. CHRISTMAS emphasizes the special joys of living in the country, or in a small town, and of reasons for helping protect those qualities which make life so special for everyone fortunate enough to live, work, shop or play in Piedmont Virginia. Let’s don’t let it go for false promises of “growth” and “progress.” Look at the jammed traffic and sprawling suburbs and shopping centers of places which have already fallen to these false lures, and you see what we mean. Let’s do all we can to make every Christmas a merry one in the country. □ Effort begun to obtain grant for recreation THE Rappahannock County Recreation Center Association has started the ball rolling to request a government grant to build all the remaining facilities planned for the Rec Center site on Route 211 near Washington. The Association’s executive committee approved the action at its meeting Monday night, December 6, according to Association President T. Granville Eastham. Two meetings to solicit public reaction to the proposal will be held at the county courthouse at 1 p.m. Monday, December 13, and at 8 p.m. Tuesday, December 14. All interested persons are invited to either meeting. The decision to apply for a federal grant was based on research at both the county and federal levels, and discussions with officials at Planning District 9. The county Board of Supervisors has endorsed the concept, said Eastham. Captain William Fries, USN (Ret.), who has helped push the plan, reported that special funds have been earmarked by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to provide recreation facilities for communities of less than 10,000 population. A recent survey by Planning District 9 confirmed that Rappahannock is the only member county of the planning district to have no public recreation facilities. THE Rec Center plans to build a swimming pool, two tennis courts, an outdoor basketball court, and two shuffleboardcourts. Funds would also be requested to provide adequate parking facilities, picnic tables, benches and paths throughout the site. This development would supplement the pavilion, which was paid for by state funds and private solicitation, and the playground equipment, horseshoe pits, and landscaping donated by the Rappahannock Woman’s Club, Lions Club and Garden Club, respectively. □ MISSIONARY TO SPEAK Miss Ann Dwyer, who is a foreign missionary to Yemen, will speak at the 11:00 a.m. service December 19 at the Washington Baptist Church. Letters to the editor Thoughts on good town planning IVUiWI • — • j As a long-time student of city planning, I should like to add some remarks to your editorial of 25 November. Firstly, American towns and cities are all inevitably configured with the automobile in view. Because of this consideration, they invariably adapt to an essentially linear pattern. As an example, I would cite Columbia Pike in Arlington, Va. This is a long, wide boulevard along which are sited at intervals numerous shopping centers. To get to these shopping centers, one must traverse on foot huge parking areas in a state of alertness to avoid being struck by vehicles arriving or departing. The typical shopping center is linear and after one has traversed it in one direction, one must return past the same businesses to regain one’s starting point, a monotonous experience. Now the point I am making is that what is beautiful and charming in city planning relates essentially to human scale. A part of human scale is pedestrianism. We are most comfortable when we can conduct our affairs on foot without undue inconvenience. The popularity of the enclosed man or arcade shopping center is predicated on easy pedestrian movement. The monotony of the linear shopping center is avoided as one never passes the same establishments as one circles around to the starting point. If we take these same ideas and relate them to city planning what we in effect arrive at is the old European model of the town square with all the business, social, civic and religious establishments fronting it. The square itself is an oasis of trees and greenery, affording pleasant relief from the hustle and bustle of the business and social world that surrounds it. Residences circle the outer rims of the town, all within easy walking distance of the square. I remember a calendar picture of one particularly attractive town on the Mediterranean. What fascinated and charmed me was the town’s human scale. In my mind’s eye, I could see myself strolling easily from my residence into the town’s center and having a pleasant glass of wine in an open air cafe on the square. In contrast to the above picture, visualize an aerial view of a gigantic cloverleaf in Southern California. Not withstanding the -- fact that the highway engineers made every effort to make their cloverleaf attractive through sweeping curves and elegant overpasses, it still is an appalling sight to the sensitive observer. Why? Because it lacks human scale. In the back of the mind we picture ourselves dropped on foot in the midst of these miles of hot, monotonous concrete, beset with the challenge of getting off this vast expanse without first dying of thirst or sunstroke. The charm of Williamsburg is the charm of a pedestrian world. I would make the point that man has never fully conformed to the automobile. While he recognizes its merits, he still views it as a thing alien to himself and a world built around the automobile seems foreign and ugly to him. I suppose the human animal will always primarily identify himself with his body and its unaided capabilities and only secondarily with his automobile. In closing I would like to offer my word of priase for the excellence of your very perceptive editorials. p Daniel J. Kennelly Satellite Beach, Fla. Scoreboard help thanked Editor: The scoreboard fund raising campaign for Rappahannock County High School was a tremendous success and I personally wish to express my sincere appreciation to all who contributed. I am confident that the students and members of the athletic teams, as well as the coaches, faculty and administrators, are likewise grateful for the support received. It is indeed rewarding to know that we have so many interested and generous people in our community. The scoreboard has arrived and I do hope that each of you will have an opportunity to see it in operation! Thank you again for all your efforts on behalf of our young people and their activities.

E L I f L c F 0 X Landfill ruling is expected THE Rappahannock Board of Zoning Appeals will issue a ruling Thursday on the special use permit application from Mr. and Mrs. E.R. Updike to operate a privately owned landfill within an agricultural zone. The Updike’s Community Trash Service was the low bidder on the county’s trash disposal and won a three-year contract awarded by the Supervisors in August. The Updike’s intended at that time to use the Orange County landfill to dispose of the refuse but were underbid on the Orange contract. Subsequently, the Orange Board of Supervisors notified the Updikes that the landfill there would be closed to them in 90 days’ time. the Kappahannock Supervisors decided in September to authorize Chairman Pete Luke to continue working with the Updikes in their attempts to open a private landfill within the county. The Updikes located a landowner outside Sperryville who was willing to sell them property to be used as a landfill. Holding a contingency contract on the parcel, the Updikes requested a special use permit from the BZA in October. At that meeting, the Board adjourned to untangle legal questions without reaching a decision. If the application is denied on Thursday, the County may have to attempt to find a way to fund a public operation. FEDERAL funds for a landfill are available from HUD’s Community Development Discretionary Grant program but Rappahannock’s chances of being awarded funding for this year are very slim, according to Planning District 10 official Bob Abbott. Abbott was responsible for engineering Louisa County’s successful grant application that resulted in funding for an $88,000 landfill project. There is Eight million dollars available in Virginia through the HUD program for this funding cycle, according to Abbott. Preliminary applications are due between November 15 and January 7. The preapplications are rated in four categories on the basis of points awarded in five areas. Top priority ranking almost assures funding, available up to one half million per project, said Abbott. The second category is a standby position, in effect waiting for a project in the top priority category to drop out. Abbott said that Louisa’s landfill project had been in stand-by initially. Twenty-seven projects made the top ranking that year but one decided not to accept the Federal money. Louisa’s landfill was ranked 28th. Louisa had already funded its landfill through other sources so HUD officials allowed the $88,000 to be transferred to funding a reservoir. © A THIRD category ranking means that the grant has merit but needs more work, and should be resubmitted the following year. Fourth position means “forget it,” according to Abbott. The first criteria the pre-application is judged on is extent of poverty and percentage of substandard housing in the population to be served by the project. Twenty points are available. The second criteria is the exBRIDGE CLUB MEETS Mrs. Brown Miller was hostess to the Sperryville Bridge Club Friday night at her home near Sperryville. Guests were Mrs. W. H. Lyne, Mrs. C. E. Johnson, Jr., Mrs. Hugh Chrisman, Mrs. Elmo Flynt, Mrs. R. E. Wood, Mrs. T. J. Pillar, Mrs. W. H. Cordle and Mrs. I. R. Kilby. Prize winners were Mrs. Lyne, Mrs. Pillar and Mrs. Kilby. □ tent the proposed activity will benefit low and moderate income families. If less than 51 percent of the population served falls in the low to moderate income range, the project is awarded 11 points for incidental benefit. Principal benefit, worth 23 points, is given if 51 to 99 percent are poor or moderately poor. One hundred percent of the population served total benefit in this category is worth 35 points. Up to 25 points can be given to the application if the project supports the activities of low and moderate income people. Only 25 points can be accrued if the project alleviates a health and safety problem and a final ten points may be awarded if the application has received funding from other federal or state sources. Total points available are 110. According to Abbott, the determination of which projects receive funding is done by taking the IT’1" application with the highest number of points, subtracting the total funding it needs from the eight million allotted to Virginia for this funding cycle and then just continuing with the same process for the second ranking scorer and so on down the line until the money is exhausted. ABBOTT explained that having a high percentage of low income families to be served by the project was the key to obtaining HUD funding this year. A landfill application submitted by Greene County this year was ranked in the third category and denied funding while a water line expansion project to serve low income families was awarded a grant. Abbott emphasized, however, that the criteria could change next year. “We’re applying again,” said Greene Commonwealth Attorney Dave Dickie, “and we may well get it.” 1 See Northern Virginia's Most Exciting Assortment of Equestrian Gifts Assorted Glass Mugs Candy Dishes Milk Glass Cups Assorted Ashtrays Change Purses Jewelry Assorted Beverage Glasses Cocktail Shakers Continental Cups Waste bins Desk Sets Placemats & Coasters at the Rappahannock Tack Shop Many of our Tack items are now on sale at discounts of 15-50% thru Dec. 31, 1976 Rappahannock Tack Shop Rt. 522 Flint Hill, Va.

. Cars hit animals Animals have found it dangerous recently in Rappahannock. Trooper R. A. Baines investigated a traffic collision on Route 729 near Estes Saturday in which a calf was struck by a motorist, and two deer were killed in as many wrecks on Route 211 last week. Rayburn Allen of Rixeyville escaped injury but received minor damage to his 76 Dodge when he struck the calf. One deer collision occurred at Jordan’s hill .near Amissville and another near Hampton Inn, Washington on December 3 and 4, respectively. A 64 Chevrolet pickup and a 77 Lincoln Continental met at Viewtown with drastic personal property damage Saturday. According to Baines, the pickup loaded with corn, driven by Brue Settle of Castleton, struck the Lincoln operated by Charles Glaze of Vienna. Damage to the Lincoln was estimated at over a thousand dollars and the truck was declared a total loss. Settle was cited for reckless driving. □ request for BIDS The Rappahannock County Bonrd of Supervisor* is soliciting bids ta paint the Caurtraani, tha Judges’ chambers, jury raoiu and the halls in the Caurthaase, Washington, Virginia.

Board sidesteps landfill issue From race 1 “none available” for the current year, the letter stated. Supervisor Clarence Baldwin asked why the county couldn’t consider leasing land. “Several people in his district had expressed interest in leasing land for the trash disposal,” he reported. Luke quickly suggested that those interested contact the Updikes, who had very limited success in finding suitable sites. Baldwin argued that a leasing arrangement would be “better than condemning someone’s property, like you (Luke) expressed at the last meeting.” DAVIS asked again, “wasn’t there some action by the Board of Supervisors on the Updike’s option on the Carrigan property?” Luke’s flat response was “no.” The previous January and /February, the Planning Commission sought proposals from anyone interested in operating a landfill in the county, Luke recalled, “but they could find nothing.” Baldwin said that if the county allowed a privately owned land e <WJhite SLp South Gate Shopping Center Culpeper JUMPSUIT A favorite way to be fashionable and comfortable.

We have enough of our own trash.” Davis advised that the county had the “reached the point” of where they must make a decision on whether they favored the private ownership of the landfill. “It looks to me as if the Updikes have to find a place either in Rappahannock or they’ll have to find another site” somewhere else,” Supervisor Wood stated. “WHAT if he says he can’t live up to the contract?” Davis asked. “Then we can sue them,” Wood quickly replied. Luke commented that the trash problems were not unique to just Rappahannock County. “All of the United States,” solid waste disposal is a big problem, he said, adding that “one day the county is either going to have to join with another jurisdiction or find a landfill of our own.” Davis asked if the Supervisors wanted to support the use permit request of the Updikes being considered by the BZA. Wood, in whose district the property is located, said “no one wants it in my district.” Wood added that it was up to the Board of Zoning Appeals to decide on the use permit. “We shouldn’t be trying to tell them which way to decide.” LUKE summarized the debate. “We are supporting the contract with Community Trash—how they decide to dispose of the trash is their problem.” The county should “stick to the contract until its shown they (Updikes) can’t fulfill it,” Luke concluded. Davis claimed that the Board of Zoning Appeals at the October public hearing on the landfill permit had been trying to “dictate” to the Supervisors that the county should go to a public landfill. Davis tried to insist that the BZA was appointed by the Supervisors and thus should be serving the Supervisors. not dictating to them. Luke reminded Davis that the BZA members were appointed by the court. Davis shrugged and gave up the argument. On a motion by Supervisor Dick Latham, seconded by Eastham, the Board went on record reaffirming support of the three-year trash contract with the Updikes. Davis said he did not like the resolution because it did not mention a sanitary landfill in Rappahannock County. “You are making absolutely no steps toward fulfilling the state law that requires Rappahannock County to have a landfill,” he closed. Wood said he could not support a resolution that was linked to a landfill. When it was made clear that the mention of landfill was to be deleted from Latham’s motion, the vote was unanimous. NEAR the close of Thursday’s meeting the Board went into executive session to discuss land acquisition and personnel matters. In loud voices, the words “landfill” and “trash” could be heard emanating from the back room, closed door session. A reporter from the Culpeper Star Exponent interrupted the closed session to ask if the private meeting had been opened to further discussion of the landfill question. The Supervisors answered that they had only been “jokingly” suggesting that the Madison extension school site be used as the county landfill. Action taken in executive session as reported by Luke included authorization to pay a hospital bill for an abortion performed on a welfare patient; authorization for Luke, as Chairman of the Board, to negotiate on the Madison school site; and the deletion of one request for mileage reimbursement from the Sheriffs department.— Memory Porter Washington VFD elects officers The Washington Fire Department held its annual election of officers Monday, December 6.

Loaded gun law held illegal From Page 1 his employment or business” would be exempt from the law. “Reasonable belief’ would be difficult to determine, Davis suggested.) Bankston insisted that the county could eliminate a lot of problems if no loaded guns were permitted on public rights-of-way where both sides of the roads were posted against hunting, in addition to the county ordinance in question. “On the other hand, we are talking about taking away a man’s civil rights,” Eastham stated. LUKE disagreed. “Local landowners have property rights, too.” He added that the county must weigh the rights of the county KOUNTRY KEYBOARDS LTD | Featuring___ KAljVAM ^rgans and Pianos | Music Supplies GET ACQUAINTED SPECIAL Model E90G $ | 300 SAVE $200 off regular price GET ACQUAINTED SPECIALS through DECEMBER 18 SAVE $200 to $980 off Regular prices of Instruments. g Monday, Thursday, Friday 12-9 PM Tuesday, Wednesday, Saturday 10-7 PM g 347-4256 Located in the Warrenton Office Building 87 LEE HIGHWAY WEST I #*gg* OPEN HOUSE .

Since the start of hunting season this year, five cows and a bull had been killed by hunters in Madison County, Bankston mentioned. Davis pointed out that there was already a state law prohibiting any shooting from a public rightof way. But the problem there is that you have to actually see the person shoot, “and it is easier to just see if the gun is loaded,” commented Wood. Supervisor Clarence Baldwin asked if there would be a problem with the definition of the term “loaded.” “Is it in the chambers or the magazine?” he asked. SHERIFF Bill Buntin assured the Supervisor that he still favored the ordinance as adopted. His understanding from the judge’s dismissal of the cases in November was that the county code would only have to be drafted in proper form. Bankston asked that the Supervisors adopt the county ordinance using the same language in the state enabling legislation, otherwise he argued that he as a state law enforcement officer could not enforce the prohibition on loaded guns in the vehicles, if the county code differed from the state law. Davis vehemently disagreed with Bankston’s interpretation of his police powers as a state employe and added that the county was not empowered to draft a stronger ordinance than permitted in the state code. Bankston had with him a copy of a similar county ordinance adopted recently in Culpeper County. The Supervisors directed Bankston to meet with Davis to draw up a proper ordinance for Rappahannock, to be adopted at a subsequent meeting. Later, Bankston noted that the county would not have the “much needed” gun law during the current hunting season. The problem with outsiders coming to hunt in Rappahannock is compounded by the fact that the counties to the west close their hunting season earlier than does RappahannocK, thus greatly increasing the number of hunters coming into the county, Bankston maintained. IN OTHER business Luke announced the expiration of Bob Anderson’s appointment to the Planning District 9 Commission. Luke suggested that Fanning Baumgardner be asked to replace Anderson. At the suggestion of Baldwin, the Board agreed to put off the appointment for another month to give the Supervisors time to search for other persons who might be willing to represent the county on the regional planning board. □ FIRE, RESCUE The Sperryville Rescue Squad carried Edward Nicholas, Jr. from a car accident at Johnson’s Store to Culpeper Memorial Hospital November 30.

Antenna safety warning The rapid growth of citizens band radio popularity is increasing the problem of serious accidents occuring when CB antennas come into contact with overhead power lines, according to Francis Updike of Northern Piedmont Electric Cooperative. Twenty-six such accidents were reported to a major " insurance company last year. A study revealed that the antennas were mounted atop long metal masts which rested on the ground at their base and were supported by guy wires or the eaves of a house. Since most base station CB antennas are lightweight and measure 17 feet high before being mounted on a mast, it is quite easy to erect a very tall antenna/mast on the ground and then walk it into an upright position. The majority of victims were simply walking the antennas into place when the antenna contacted a high voltage power line. One half of the victims died of electrocution, and all but one of those killed were standing on the ground holding the mast. Updike cautions all do-it-yourself antenna installers about affixing any such structure to utility poles or trees near utility poles. Any questions involving proper safety precautions should be referred to Northern Piedmont Electric Cooperative. □ _ m BOOKCASE, Maple finish with -M sliding glass doors.
