The dogs, owned by Ellen and Charlie Manson of Washington, have been nursed, in addition to their owners, by a number of residents of the town, and all survived. Most have now been sold. Town Residents Adopt Orphaned Puppies Bookmakers would give mighty slim odds on 11 orphan puppies only a week old hanging on to life. But anyone who bet on Tigger and Rue’s babies would have broken the bank! The odds makers couldn’t have reckoned with a town as adoptive parent. Charlie and Ellen Manson were taken by surprise when their flat-coated retriever, a birthday present for Charlie a year earlier, gave birth to 11 puppies. They had bought Rue to keep their male dog, Tigger, company and to give them a supply of little Tiggers but they hadn’t expected quite so many tiny bundles of black fur. Despite the awesome number of offspring, Rue took her job seriously. Eight days later, all the babies were healthy and well fed and their future looked great. But tragedy hit the Manson home. Rue got into a pond with cement walls and couldn't climb out. She drowned, leaving 11 orphans and two distraught masters. The news spread. Molly and Jenks Hobson came over immediately to comfort the Mansons and to help with the puppies. But infants—be they canine or human — require almost constant care and feeding. With Charlie and Ellen both working, the time they had to devote to the little orphans was limited. Then, in the nick of time, the cavalry came galloping up over the hill—the town of Washington came to the rescue. “People just started showing up and volunteering to help us,” Ellen recalled. “I don’t think Jenks had to coerce anyone,” she added. Every three hours during the days and evenings for a week following Rue’s death Washington’s dog lovers and good neighbors trooped into the Manson home to take turns mixing formula, feeding, bathing, paper changing and cuddling. Dawn Fisher donated an old fur coat. The coat had holes cut in it before it was draped over the rack that held the puppies' bottles.

At the end of their second week, Rue’s 11 children were over the hump, thriving on love and care from Dot White, Nancy Secrist, Mary Bailey, Tinker Hay, Dawn Fisher, Mary Selles, Frank Jolly, Rae Hasse, Martha Whitsed and Jenks and Molly Hobson. From formula, they wen* to pablum in bottles an^ finally began eating out of a pan. Two weeks ago, they graduated to dry food. Now ready for their new homes, the puppies live in temporary quarters—a small, fenced enclosure in the Manson's back yard. As of last week, only three hadn't been spoken for. Since all 11 look almost exactly alike, Charlie came up with a novel idea for (Continued on Page 2) Land Use Laws May Change Soon By daphne McCullough Rappahannock New* Staff Writer “You can bet your boots that land use is going to be changed,” promised State Delegate George Beard at the Rappahannock League for Environmental Protection's Silvey Hurt In Cycle Collision Douglas Wayne Silvey of Amissville has been in the intensive care unit of Fauquier Hospital following a motorcycle crash Saturday night when he sustained a severe leg injury and an arm injury. Silvey was operating a '72 Harley Davidson motorcycle traveling north on Route 642 at Amissville when he attempted to pass a '76 Ford pickup operated by Richard Jeffries of Rixeyville, according to Trooper C. A. Moore. There was a vehicle approaching from the opposite direction, a ’73 Plymouth driven by Herman Clatterbuck of Amissville. Silvey struck the side of the Clatterbuck car, the officer said, bounced off into the Jeffries truck and was hurled down the road. Tuesday on Route 211 east of Amissville Trooper Moore investigated a collision involving Lisa Crescent i in a '65 Chevrolet pickup and George Sodon of Minnesota in a ’73 Chevrolet station wagon. No injuries and no charges resulted, said Moore. Billy Hawkins of Castleton was involved in a single vehicle crash Sunday on Route 618 at Castleton. According to Trooper R. A. Baines, Hawkins driving a 72 Ford pickup, ran off the road, struck a bank. He sustained a possible minor hip injury, said the officer. Charges are pending. June 3 town meeting on land use issues. “The General Assembly knows that something is wrong with the Code. We know it has bugs in it but I don't think they anticipated all the problems that have arisen.” Beard reported that he'd recently been appointed to an Assembly finance subcommittee to study land use. Concern over the state’s legislation that allows localities the authority to establish use value taxation grew out of “a disaster in Prince William County," he said. By taking advantage of deferred use value taxation, Hylton Industries, the developers of Dale City, were able to save $200,000 in local taxes, according to Beard. The company owns 2,685 acres in Prince William that were originally assessed at $4,147,000. Although the property is slated for eventual development, it was approved for use value tax treatment, dropping the assessment to $181,000. As a result. Beard said, the tax bill on the land dropped from $227,000 to $10,000. ''They’ve taken the law to preserve open space and the agricultural industry and turned it in for a profit," Beard charged. (This was possible, he said, because enabling legislation allows an owner of property in land use to cut off acreage for development while keeping the balance of the tract in the (Continued on Page 10) Temperature May Rise Thursday should be sunny with highs in the mid-70s to mid-80s. Warmer temperatures, and more humid conditions, are expected by Saturday with temperatures high in the 80s. Lows will range from the 50s to the 60s. Total Budget Over $2 Million Tax Rate May Jump 20 Cents I>y UArnUL UlctLLLUUOH Rappahannock News Staff Writer On Monday, June 19, the Rappahannock Supervisors will meet at the courthouse to approve the county’s 19781979 budget and set a tax rate for the coming year. In order to fund county services as proposed in the advertised budget, assessment will be set at $4.20 per $100—an increase of 20 cents on the levy. Total revenue requirements called for by the proposed budget are over the two million dollar mark for the first time. This year's contemplated expenditures add up to $2,247,096—an increase of $330,505. In addition to raising the property taxes by 20 cents. me supervisors propose raising the utility tax to bring in $60,000. Last year, utility taxes were set at Five percent of the First $30. This year, the tax will be 20 percent of the first $15, the maximum allowed by the state. In the First draft of the proposed budget, expenditures totaled $77,419 more than incoming revenue under last year’s tax rate of $4. According to Supervisor Chairman E. P. Luke, the budget could be funded without raising property taxes but this would mean exhausting the county's $71,751.50 reserve fund. On the basis of trends established over the last few years, the Supervisors decided that expenditure ot reserve money was unwise, according to Luke. The county school budget of $1,360,879 comprises the single largest item in Rappahannock’s budget. Due primarily to Standards of Quality (SOQ) mandated by the state, school costs are expected to increase. In addition to smaller pupilteacher ratios that require additional teachers and classrooms, schools have to provide an expanded program for learning disabled, handicapped and special education students. At the same time that local school costs are increasing, (Continued on Page 4) Park Grants Extension On Land Swap But Is Exchange Legal Under State Law? Shenandoah National Park Superintendent Robert Jacobsen announced on Tuesday that he has granted an extension until July 25 in the time allotted for public comment regarding the proposed exchange €lf Rappahannock Park land for private property in Greene County.''" f -** However, Jacobsen added that "so far, we have not seen any substantive reasons to cause us to cancel the proposal.” Jacobsen said he’d talked with a number of people in Rappahannock and with Congressman J. Kenneth Robinson before agreeing to extend the period of public review on the land swap for 30 additional days. “This will give all interested citizens or public bodies the opportunity to thoroughly consider this land exchange proposal and VtfRr' tHtffCTHom, •*- mM Jacobsen.

However, Rappahannock's jump onto the slow but steady bandwagon of former Attorney General Andrew P. Miller anticipated his arrival on the third ballot at the Democratic State Convention. Miller, who gained votes steadily after 1,222 on the first ballot, was acclaimed the Democratic nominee last Saturday in Williamsburg for the U. S. Senate seat of retiring Sen. William L. Scott, a Republican. Miller will face his Republican opponent, former GOP national co-chairman Richard D. Obenshain, in face-to-face debates before the Nov. 7 general election. An "open convention coalition” of the seven other candidates competing with Miller for the Democratic nomination June 9 and 10 mistakenly hoped for a bandwagon of their own to "Stop Andy.” Miller had reached an unofficial total of 1,360 votes j^n the decisive ballot, which was 37 votes short of the 1,397 majority needed for the nomination. Then the temporary coalition stood together on the platform to withdraw and to acclaim Miller the victor. Miller was short of official victory and seemed unstoppable with his closest rival, state Sen. Clive L. DuVal of McLean, trailing by 780 votes. Rappahannock's four delegates had four votes in a participating total of 2,792 delegates. Floor workers tried to woo Mary Edna Schaeffer, Dorothy Davis, Hubert Gilkey, and E. H. Bailey as if each vote were the only one that counted. Mrs. Schaeffer, who sat on the aisle on the overflowing convention floor at William and Mary Hall, was the most convenient to candidate representatives scrapping for the 7th District votes, one-onone. Her seat had its compensations. Candidate Miller stopped to shake her hand and speak between balloting on his squeeze through the delegations with an escort of uniformed police and staff with walkie-talkies. Alternates from Rappahannock were Sherman Williams and Dianna Bird, who needed floor passes to leave their spots in the gallery. Delegate Davis traded seats with Alternate Bird for awhile, allegedly to (Continued on Page 4) _| KhMi/kr Rippakamock Newt KNIT ONE VOTE, PURL ONE VOTE. Mary Edna Schaeffer, chairman of Rappahannock's delegation of four to the Democratic State Convention in Williamsburg last Friday and Saturday, wasted no time on the convention floor, knitting through tedious preliminary procedures until the vote-casting began.

TIGGER COULD PUT A LOT OF HUMAN FATHERS TO SHAME. Although his children number 11, he can always manage to find time to give them a little individual attention. He knows what it’s like to be an orphan. The Mansons found Tigger in a Richmond alley when he was just a pup. Orphaned Pups (Continued from Page 1) identifying the puppies for their prospective owners. As they've been selected, he’s sprayed each with white paint—a taile here, a back there, a little on the side and a dab on the leg. Tigger has become recently embroiled in teaching his offspring the social graces and how to behave like dogs. According to Ellen, he ignored his progeny for the first six weeks. Now, he's like a kid with a new toy. He's right in the middle of the squirming mass of puppies everytime they’re let out of their pen to play. Tigger flops on his back, bats at the babies with his feet and, ever so gently, takes his children into his powerful jaws during a wrestling match. Occasionally, he gets a little tired and gives a persistent puppy who won't leave him alone a warning growl. But most of the time, he's the soul of patience and a model father. It's hard to tell who will miss the babies most w^en they go on to new homes— the town, the Mansons or the proud daddy. daphne McCullough Ifoppaliannock ^cuu?

Summer School Reading Program Begins Monday By daphne McCullough "•Pf-hinno* IVwSMff Writer The Rappahannock elementary school* summer reading program will begin as scheduled on Monday June 19, with 60 students who are a year or more behind grade level in reading. Projected costs for the program is SI 0,000. Superintendent William Bloomer noted at Tuesday’s meeting of the Rappahannock School Board that this estimate didn’t include the transportation costs for the five buses that will be used to transport the children to and from their three-hour morning class. “Five buses for 60 children? Is it necessary to have transportation available?” asked Board member Paul Nichols. Bloomer responded that failure to provide transportation would cut participation “in half or possibly down to a third.” He added that the administration had expected at least 100 children for the summer program “but for one reason or another there was less interest than anticipated.” Jack Jenkens asked why, when the notes went home from school announcing the summer program, they didn’t carry a notation that the $50 reimbursable charge could be waived for hardship cases. “That (the $50 fee) might have cut down on participation,” he maintained. Bloomer disagreed, noting that teachers had made a deliberate attempt to relay to parents that the $50 charge was not mandatory. “We’ve done the best job we can with the numbers and (reading) levels we had,” remarked elementary assistant principal Cheryl Neel, who will be the administrator in charge of the summer reading program. “It seems to be going fine,” she added. Miss Neel noted that two letters regarding the reading program had been sent out from school to the parents of the 350 elementary students who are a year or more below grade level in reading. If the forms were not returned marked by the parents, then teachers were requested to call the homes, according to Miss Neel. “The response seems to warrant not going ahead,” said Ron Wiley, adding that the program had been put together “awfully suddenly.” “It is the regret of the School Board that there is not more participation,” Chairman Beverly Massie responded. She recalled that parents had shown up in force for previous Schuq^ Board meetings and indicated interest in attacking the reading problems that Rappahannock’s elementary students have shown. “I don’t know why more failed to participate (in the reading program),” she added. in me coming year, Mrs. Massie continued, the administration and teachers would devote more time to an in-depth study of the reading program to find out where weaknesses lie.

First, the shortage of new savings made it difficult to finance private housing, and the number of new housing units built each year was far below that what it should have been. Since there is a steady growth in population, this puts pressure on our housing reserves and prices rise. Second, there have been inflationary increases in the labor and materials costs that go into building a house. In most urban areas, land values continue to go up each year, too. Historically, real estate values have always increased faster than the cost of living. Thus, it is an .excellent inflation hedge. So here are the readymade ingredients for a good investment. We all need housing of some kind, and according to the experts, the price of housing will continue to go even higher, though perhaps, not as dramatically as in the past few years.

Describing the summer reading project as “a pilot program,” Mrs. Massie maintained that the School Board would be remiss to drop the proposal now that interest has been shown. The experience gained in the summer program will help in planning for the regular school year and for summer school next summer, she concluded. Teachers who will instruct in the summer reading program are: Ed Potts—12 students in two reading groups. Susan Hrbek—10 students in two reading groups. James Fountain —10 students in two reading groups. Annie Moore—7 students in three reading groups. Monica Toman —13 students in one reading group. Sandra Potts—8 students in two reading groups.

C. Randolph’s Salem Farm. The jumper classic concluded the week long Upperville Colt and Horse Show held last week at Grafton Farm across the road from Salem. Several thousand spectators crowded on the hillside overlooking the colorful course or gathered in box seats along the ring. Among the entries were six horses from Mexico who came to the classic at the beinning of their summer show tour. The course, designed by Robert Jolicoeur of Canada, contained 15 fences ranging from spreads and verticals to a water jump and Liverpool, and three in-and-outs. Fence 14, a vertical, was particularly tricky because it closely followed the wide water jump and gave riders little time to collect their horses before jumping again. Jr. Angus Field Day Scheduled The Virginia Junior Angus Association will hold its annual field day June 17 at Brandy Rock Farm, Brandy Station. The state showmanship contest to choose two winners and two alternates to represent Virginia at the national contest will be held during the day. Dean Danielson of VPI will be official judge for the judging contest and will present a type demonstration. Jake White, manager of Sugar Loaf Farm, will give a showing demonstration. Lunch at 12:15 will be followed by the showmanship contest with White as official judge. -t—1—l—tr,Every manhe* e.right.lohis opinion, but no man has a right to be wrong in his facts. At the end of the first round, Smith on Val de Loire, Bernie Traurig on The Cardinal, Lynne Little on Port, and Steve Stephens on Gray Chief all had successfully negotiated the challenging course. They returned for a jump off over a shortened course. Val de Loire, The Cardinal, and Port again went clean while the four faults incurred for a knockdown by Grey Chief placed him in fourth position. Val de Loire’s time of 43.50 bested The Cardinal’s 44.53 so the Stillmeadow Farm gelding received the blue ribbon and the $4500 first prize. Third went to Port with a time of 46.42. Smith first won the jumper classic in 1976 on Radnor II, a horse that she also competed with on Sunday. He ended up in an eight-way tie for fifth place with four faults from the first round. Smith, 28, said that although she was raised on a farm and grew up in Pony Club, she did not receive formal riding instruction until she was 19. She overcame discouragement from one of the foremost trainers and instructors, and climbed her way to success by hard work grooming, braiding, and whatever else needed doing around the barn. Although Smith has placed well in other competitions this year on the Grand Prix circuit, she was not among the riders scheduled to leave for Europe Monday to compete on the United States Equestrian Team. Her disappointment at not being chosen was evident Sunday. “They said the team would be selected from competition at three shows, and I was the only rider who placed at all three,” Smith said. “I would liked to have gone. They’ve (the USED only used me when they had to. I think they owe me an explanation,” she added. Val de Loire is a veteran of both the Montreal and Munich Olympic games. The 13-year-old chestnut gelding competed as part of the Spanish equestrian team before being purchased by Stillmeadow Farm last August. “He would stop with me at first until I got to know him,” Smith said, but the pair has placed consistently this year.

Kids Wanted The Rappahannock Athletic Association’s summer baseball program has a new problem. The Association beat the bushes for money, equipment and volunteers to coach and umpire. Now the program needs kids. Try-outs two weeks ago were rained out. Last Saturday, the field was full of boys nine to eleven years old but in the other ^e groups and on the girls team, participation was lacking. In order for the program to run effectively, the Association needs girls of all ages and boys from ages 12 to 17. Last year, older kids dropped out because there weren’t enough players to field more than one team. Although emphasis is on learning the basics rather than fierce competition, some competition is necessary or it’s no tun. Kids can only take so much anil work on fielding, hitting and pitching. To maintain interest, they need to play real games. And in order to have contests, the Association must have enough participants to make up at least four teams. It’s not too late to join. Any boy or girl interested in playing baseball can just show up at the elementary school field on any evening during the week. Or they can call Don Keithley at 6753431 or Guy Foster at 675-3467 to sign up. Now that adult involvement has provided enough coaches and umpires, it would be sad if the program failed in its second year of operation because kids are no longer interested in what was once our national pastime. Tax Increase (Continued from Page 1) the percentage supplied by the state has dropped. Between 1975 and 1976, the local share of the county's school budget increased six percent—from S512.160 to $551,991. The local share jumped nine percent between 1977 and 1978—from $563,248 to $615,730—and will jump even higher at 14 percent from 1978 to 1979— from $615,730 to $704,101. The rapid increase in the local share of the school budget has not been offset by an increase in assessed value of Rappahannock property. While local school costs have jumped by nine and 14 percent, -the increase in assessed value has climbed at a steady rate of approximately 3.5 percent a year. Other factors also have affected school funding. Last year, the state allowed localities to fund below the minimum per pupil expenditure of $825, provided all other Standard of Quality were met. (Rappahannock funded at $815 per pupil.) This year, localities do not have the option of funding below the minimum set by the state if they want to retain state funds. In addition, the per pupil funding level has increased from $825 to $901. Besides the steadily increasing local share of school costs that will have to be met through dipping into the county’s reserve fund if taxes aren't to be significantly increased, the county is also faced with another extra revenue demand—$25,000 for the required reassessment that is scheduled fur 1960. As an alternative to either exhausting reserve funds or raising property taxes, the Supervisors looked at all other revenue sources open to them, according to Luke. If all other revenue sources including consumer tax on gas. utility tax on phones, gas and water, business and professional licenses and an increase in motorcycle and track licensing fees to the maximum allowed by the state—the county would collect only S6.845.19. This would be offset by the costs of setting up the administration necessary to collect some of these fees. In comparison, 10 cents on the tax rate brings in SI5.000. The Welfare Department and School budgets are proposed fir approval by the Supervisors on Monday exactly as they were submitted. Both show increases. The school budget calls for SI.360,879—up by S46.946 over the previous year. The Supervisors indicated at their June Board meeting that they would fund the proposed school budget in its entirety. The total expenditure for the Virginia Public Assistance fund is estimated to be S179.136—an increase of S32.401. However, only a very small percentage ol county revenue is involved in the increase. Purchased services accounts for $29,948 of the raise. The county’s share of this category amounts to just $4,053. The rest is made up of donated funds. Several budget requests presented to the Supervisors were cut before being included in the proposed county budget. The Board of Zoning Appeals asked for $5,000 in its account to cover possible attorney fees. The Supervisors instead included the appropriation under “Board of Supervisors” along with an additional $2,000 to cover attorney fees for assistance given to Commonwealth Attorney George Davis in his revisions and review to the nmiiif' and subdivision' ordinances. Col. Luke explained that the Supervisors could appropriate part or all of the $5,000 to the BZA as it is requested. County constitutional officers had all asked for a ten percent raise in salary. This was cut in the proposed budget to 6.8 percent and a letter sent from the Supervisors to the State Compensation Board recommending approval of the lower rate. The Sheriff's Department request for an additional deputy was omitted from the proposed budget and the Library's request for an appropriation was cut. However, the county’s support of the library is up $200 over the previous year. The Supervisors reduced Chapter Ten Mental Health and Mental Retardation Community Services Board request from $6,807 to $5,807 but the appropriation is still an increase of $699 over the previous year. Other increases include a jump of $18,228 in appropriation for the county clerk’s office to cover moving expenses to the new office and purchase of additional furniture and equipment. The contemplated expenditures for the Planning Commission in the coming year show an increase of $13,380 but the Supervisors anticipate that $12,000 will be covered by a comprehensive planning grant under the Rural Development Act. In addition to the drop in the state’s share of school «MI, K lppeiri that support from the federal government for local government costs is also on the wane. General revenue sharing grants will drop in the coming year by $4,435. The public hearing on the budget is scheduled for Monday, 10 a.m., in the courthouse. According to a notation on the advertised budget, the Supervisors will approve the budget for the fiscal year commencing July 1, 1978 “no later than July 1, 1978 and at least seven days following the hearing.” After the hearing the Supervisors may adopt the budget as advertised with its $4.20 tax rate per $100 of assessed value or they may adopt a budget with a lower tax rate. They may not go above the advertised rate of $4.20 without readvertising the budget and holding a second hearing.

DuVal came closest to Miller of all the other seven Litter Cleanup Cost $4 Million The results of a recent survey conducted by the Virginia Divison of Litter Control indicates the state’s local governments spent an estimated S3.9 million during fiscal year 1977 for local litter pickup. The single largest expenditure was in the City of Norfolk where $585,000 was spent for motor sweeping and hand sweeping operations along streets and other public areas in an effort to keep these areas litter free. Norfolk was followed by Henrico County which spent $340,000 and the City of Hopewell which expended $232,447. The survey letter asked the state's 136 county and city administrators to submit the actual or best estimated cost for litter pickup in their respective localities. xintenders, but DuVal still railed by 780 votes. Half of Rappahannock's delegation favored former Fairfax Supervisor Rufus Phillips, the candidate backed by the American Agriculture Movement (AAM), for the first two ballots. Rufus Phillips was Miller’s third closest challenger, after DuVal and Norfolk City Council member G. Conoly Phillips. Rappahannock split the delegation’s four votes two for Miller and two for Rufus Phillips on the First two ballots. All four voted for Miller on the third ballot. They received no instructions after their election at the mass meeting held April 15 at the courthouse in Washington. All said they were uncommitted. “He’s gained steadily, and he ought to take it,’’ predicted Gilkey before the “open convention coalition” stepped out of Miller’s way on the crucial ballot. Mrs. Schaeffer said the direction Miller's campaign will take in Rappahannock probably will be mapped this Thursday at the next quarterly meeting of the county Democratic Committee. A HAWTHORNE TREE IN FULL BLOOM is picturesque on a Rappahannock farm. Planning Helps Control Land Use Everyone Wants A Piece Of The Rock By DAPHNE McCULLOUGH Rappahannock New* Staff Writer Rappahannock County is not under what Fauquier Planning Director Dick McNear describes as “urban growth pressures.” Instead, Rappahannock faces “piece of the rock pressure,” said McNear. “Everyone wants a little piece of this most scenic, unspoiled countryside. The county's biggest problem is how to control this pressure. If it is not controlled, then the scenic, rural values will be lost.” McNear and State Delegate George Beard were the featured speakers at a June 2 town meeting on land use issues sponsored by the Rappahannock League for Environmental Protection. Although McNear criticized the Virginia Code’s vagueness on land use law, he stressed that localities weren’t using some of the control options already available. Repeating that what worked in one county wasn't always right for another, McNear reported on land use and planning measures adopted in Fauquier. Fauquier County, in revising its ordinances and comprehensive plan, instigated a mandatory cluster requirement in areas deemed to have a natural resource worth protecting, including prime farmland, environmentally sensitive steep slopes and scenic areas. Local Example McNear used Jay Dawson's proposed 400-acre, large-lot subdivision near Huntly as an example of how the mandatory cluster regulations worked. Dawson currently plans to divide his property into 16 lots ranging from 25 to 50 acres. "Sixteen houses, each with a fence around the property...Where are you going to find enough to farm?" asked McNear. He contended that mandating a cluster development with open space ratios approaching 90 percent was a viable, realistic and legally supportable alternative. Under a mandatory cluster requirement, Dawson would have to group his 16—"or even 20 houses”—on 40 acres in an appropriate location, according to McNear. “Ninety percent of that 400 acres would then stay in permanent open space (as) a viable farming unit...The resource is still there," he said. McNear explained that the open space may be retained in private ownership, held by a homeowner's association or deeded to the county. Should the property stay in private hands, it may be sold but would always carry a deed restriction, prohibiting further development of the land. In addition to mandatory clustering as a means to control land use, McNear stated that localities can create a special zone where subdivision development is not allowed, period. “A nosubdivision agricultural or steep slope zone can be justified under existing laws," he insisted. “It’s a little bit of a radical idea...No one’s tried it,” McNear added, acknowledging that the alternative had been rejected by the Fauquier Planning Commission. He maintained that "large lot zoning, in and of itself, does not protect anything...One house on every 25 acres will not preserve rural character, will not preserve resources.” Comprehensive Plan But whatever route a county follows in establishing land use controls requires adoption of a comprehensive plan, according to McNear. “A locality that doesn't plan and implement that plan through zoning and subdivision ordinances is being planned and zoned by default by each land owner. There’s no public consideration in that process,” he said. Public consideration is a necessary part of the planning process, McNear continued, and “the primary document for public consideration is the comprehensive plan” mandated by the state for adoption by 1980. “I’m aware that it’s a controversial subject here in Rappahannock,” McNear said. He stressed that a comprehensive plan didn't have to be a "give away.” Instead, the plan should reflect the opinion of the majority of the local citizens, their needs and desires regarding land use regulations. Public opinion can be gathered, he noted, in a series of meetings held throughout the county. During Fauquier’s comprehensive plan revision process, sessions were first held all over that county to gather ideas on how people felt their communities should or shouldn't grow. Subsequently, the county’s planning staff came back to the same communities with a list of alternatives for more public input. Then the staff met with the Planning Commission to adopt an alternative for recommendation to the Supervisors. In addition, separate special meetings were held to discuss proposals for protection of prime agricultural land and sensitive steep slope areas. Not Enough Involvement “We had citizen involvement but not as much as we probably should have had since the Board of Supervisors made substantial modifications (to the Planning Commission’s proposals)," McNear reported. Citizen response at the last minute, described by McNear as a “blitzkreig behind the scenes” sparked the Supervisors to hold an early Saturday morning meeting where they made changes to the proposed comprehensive plan revisions. "My title is director of planning and zoning but that’s a misnomer,” continued McNear. “The director is the Board of Supervisors. The planning Commission is only advisory. The Board is the one that votes aye, nay or maybe. The citizens, through their Board, dictate what the comprehensive plan and the zoning and subdivision ordinances look like.’’ A comprehensive plan contains more than zoning and subdivision ordinances, according to McNear. “There are required studies that must be made. In the main, a comprehensive plan is a document that is the legal basis for the zoning and subdivision ordinances containing the reasons and rationale for the various zoning districts and regulations." Without a plan, “Rappahannock’s ordinances—be they good or bad—are fairly suspect from legal challenge,” McNear contended. In formulating a comprehensive plan, McNear said, the needs of all citizens must be taken into consideration. "Thirty percent of Rappahannock's resident population lives below the poverty level. This problem must be addressed," he said. “The comprehensive plan must relate to the ability to provide services—fire, rescue, solid waste disposal, and above all, schools,” McNear continued. He advised planning for “only what is wanted” because "the courts have said if you plan for it, be prepared to provide for it." “Until Chapter 11 (the section of the Virginia Code that relates to counties, cities and towns) is changed, local government will be hampered in its ability to plan and to implement plans,” McNear said. Power to plan and zone is vested in the state and delegated to localities by the Code. But under the Dillon Rule, any powers not specifically authorized to local government remain under state control. As a result of this vagueness in the Virginia Code, “courts have to end up more times than not as the final arbitrator (in land use decisions),” said McNear. “Courts armed with the Dillon Rule are playing a major role...in confining local ability to plan and zone adequately, ne contended. McNear called for a complete overhaul of Chapter 11 to make the Virginia Code “internally consistent.” To charge localities with responsibility for conserving natural resources and providing for agricultural needs and then not give local government adequate and specific tools to do so is “double talk," he maintained. “There’s nothing in there that says you can zone for farms.” McNear insisted that the Code needed to include specific measures for carrying out the goal of protecting resources and agriculture that is stated in its purpose. The specifics “must recognize that land is an exhaustable resource and not just a commodity,” he said, “it must also recognize the public concerns related to land development and use,” specifically the impact that growth has on schools and other required services. McNear acknowledged that Rappahannock’s comprehensive planning process was already under way with a planning grant application submitted under the Farmers Home Administration Rural Development Act. “This county has the ability to impact what it will leave for future generations,” he stated, describing Rappahannock’s stance as "very progressive...a forerunner among rural counties.” Most of the people will agree that the county’s rural characteristics should be preserved but not many will agree on how to accomplish that goal, according to McNear. "Now is the time to impact both the course and the resolve for Rappahannock,” he concluded. + + + + Every man has a right to his opinion, but no man has a right to be wrong Letters To The Editor Top Priority To the editor: Why i* $3000 considered too much for a third deputy? To the residents of Rappahannock County, this should be a top priority in their 1978-79 budget. Surely the security of having a wellmanned and effective law enforcement department is worth more to us than this! Our Board of Supervisors must open their eyes and ears and approve Sheriff Buntin’s request before we lose the deputies we do have. The simple fact that our Board of Supervisors has denied this request for the third consecutive year is clear that they feel our law enforcement department to be of minor concern. This is not good. All of us deserve and should demand as much protection as we can afford, and with a population of over 5000, not only can we well afford it, we definitely need it! In our opinion it takes dedicated souls to work in the conditions and for the salary described by Rev. Hobson and Mr. Moore in their letters of last week’s edition. Let’s not take advantage of our deputies' dedication to this county. We might not be so lucky to find others so willing to work so hard. As a closing thought in addition to the employment of a third deputy, we would like to recommend a salary increase for these deputies as their present salaries are disgracefully low for the amount of time and energy they spend on the job Not only would this increase encourage continued employment, but should we ever need to fill future vacancies, we can be guaranteed of more than three applicants as has been the case in the past. ROGER & SARAH ROACH Washington Federal Law Violated? To the editor: In a previous letter to the Editor (June 8, T978) I questioned the basis in Virginia law for transferring Park land to private individuals. Now I find what appears to me to be a serious question concerning the basis in Federal law, as well. The Land and Water Conservation Fund Act of 1965 was amended in 1977. It now includes the statement, ‘‘the Secretary (of the Interior) may not alienate property administered as part of the national park system in order to acquire lands by exchange.” (Alienate is a legal term meaning to transfer property to the ownership of another.) It now seems to me that the proposed land swap between Park officials and Saddleback Associates is strictly illegal at both the State and Federal levels. A. STANLEY THOMPSON Sperryville Donors Appreciated To the editor: Last Thursday, while the Bloodmobile was in Washington, there was a generous response to the appeal for blood. This is to thank the 35 donors who took the time to help save a life.

Why should A Falls Church Volvo dealer support SCCA Racing? After all, very few Volvos compete on the SCCA circuit and Summit Point is hardly the focus of a suburban Volvo market At DON BEYER VOL VO, we think a little differently: We think a dealership which competes successfully in regional and national racing demonstrates its interest in technical excellence to the greater community. We think that the promotion of amateur racing also promotes the public's awareness of the specific and general principles of automobile maintenance, making our daily service lives a little easier.

Beard Predicts Land Use Law Revisions (Continued from Page 1) use value taxation program. Roll back taxes for the proceeding five years are due only on the portion of the property that has been developed.) Situation Dfacumed Beard noted that the special land use subcommittee hadn’t yet held a meeting but he had some predictions for the RLEP audience on what changes it would recommend to the General Assembly. Currently the minimum size of a tract eligible for use value taxation is five acres. "This will go up. It may jump considerably,” Beard said. Changes may also be made in the penalties for dropping out of a land use program. As the law stands now, a property owner must pay deferred roll-back taxes for the previous five years once land is developed. The law calls for a six per cent penalty to be assessed on the deferred taxes. ‘‘Well, that’s a joke because you can’t borrow money at less than nine or ten per cent interest,” according to Beard. “So I’m sure that’s going to go up.” Beard also predicted that regulations regarding forest land would be revised. Currently, forest property taken out of land use is subject to the same five-year roll back tax that applies to agricultural land. “But you can’t raise a grove of trees in five years so I’m sure that will be raised to ten or 15 years,” said Beard. “Forest land owners who withdraw and develop their property will be penalized for a 15-year roll back...at a higher rate of interest.” In addition, Beard predicted that income from the land may also become a factor in determining eligibility for land use. Even with loopholes tightened. Beard said he didn’t view use value taxation as a tool for all localities that face growth pressures. “Not every county can afford land use. How do you pay for services if you put the whole county in?” he asked. He noted that three of the four counties in his district—Madison, Orange and Rappahannock—would have problems adopting land use because they have no significant industrial development. One Exception Culpeper County, he continued, was fortunate to have a 50-50 balance between industry and agriculture. “Industry is carrying the weight for us to go into land use,” he maintained. Beard, a resident of Culpeper, noted that assessment under land use had gone down from $1,800 to between $500 and $400 per acre and was a significant factor in keeping county dairy operations in business. In emphasizing the need for revisions in land use tax regulations. Beard acknowledged that “there’s just no way to draw up the same pattern” to fit all 63 counties with land use. “But we’re going to have to try to get the pattern so it will fit more people than it’s fitting right now, he said. “We can't preserve open space with just planning and zoning,” interjected Fauquier Planning Director Dick McNear. "Land use law can help if the loopholes are plugged, particularly after the state goes to 100 per cent assessment." RLEP president Phil Irwin asked if the General Assembly was going to address problems and loopholes in the recently adopted Agriculture and Forestal Districts Act. New York state’s agricultural districts are effective tools in controlling land use but Virginia’s law was shot full of holes by interests in Richmond so that it's now a worthless bit of legislation, according to Irwin. Beard indicated that AF Districts would also be discussed by special subcommittee. Irwin criticized Virginia's adherence to the Diilori Rule which requires that “all powers reside with the state and not with the people—a totally abhorrant concept," according to Irwin. It means that “before a locality can enact an ordinance, it must have enabling legislation from Richmond,” he said. “It probably will take a reenactment of the Constitution to return the basic responsibility of government to the people," Irwin concluded. Beard replied that he'd written down “what the hell are you going to do with the Dillon Rule?" and would bring it up for discussion when he met with the other members of the finance committee subcommittee on land use.

Bring a dish and enjoy an evening of fellowship Park Seeks Comment On Land Exchange lionttnuea trom rage i) December 8, 1977. "We assumed we’d have feedback if the Rappahannock Planning Commission saw any problems," said Jacobsen, adding that his office had received no response. "It appeared that the coast was clear.” Since there was no adverse response, Jacobsen containued, he saw no need to hold a public hearing on the transaction. He noted that there was no legal requirement for such a meeting and added that notice of the transaction had been sent to newspapers. The Park, he maintained, was not derelict in notifying adjoining land owners. Legal Exchange? It appears there’s some question as to whether the proposed land exchange is legal under Virginia Law. The Virginia Code in section 7.1-22 states that if the U. S. government ceases to be the owner of any park land conveyed to it by the Commonwealth, the right and title of that land shall immediately revert to the Commonwealth. In 1975, the Code was amended by the addition of a paragraph that authorized the exchange of Park Land without its immediate reversion to the Commonwealth. This paragraph was deleted from the Code in 1976. It alto doesn’t appear in the 1978 Code. Jacobsen maintains that the paragraph was omitted by “typographical error” for the last three years. “We’re been assured it’s still in effect,” he stated. According to the Legislative Services Office in Richmond, the paragraph was removed deliberately. Jill Pope from the Office of Legislative Services reported that chapter 449 of the 1975 Acts of the General Assembly put the paragraph authorizing Park land exchanges into the Virginia Code. Chapter 211 of the 1976 Acts of the General Assembly took the amendment out, according to Pope. “It strikes that language,” she said, indicating that the paragraph authorizing Park land exchanges was omitted deliberately and not by typographical error. Five Previous Exchanges Jacobsen said on Tuesday that he was aware of five other Park land exchanges that had taken place. H< added that two others an currently under consideration besides the proposed exchange of Rappahannock property. None of these seven involve land in the county, according to the Superintendent. ‘‘Actually, the Rappahannock County border is ?\appa liatum ck Nmis Reach nearly everyone in Rappahannock County with your Classified Ad.

He predicted that the next problems with Park land in Rappahannock would involve congestion in parking areas that give access to the Park. “It’s worthy of note,” Jacobsen continued, “that these land exchanges may originate on the part of the Park or on the part of individual land owners...Each one, from the Park’s standpoint, is judged solely on the basis of overall good to the Federal land holdings and the long range plans for the Park.” The exchanges, maintained Jacobsen, are not done secretly and "are not put together to profit private citizens.” If the exchange for Rappahannock Park land is finally approved, the property will be surveyed “as soon as we are able to bring in teams,” said Jacobsen. Next, deeds will be drafted and checked by the Justice Department to assure that title is satisfactory. "Then the transaction is completed, assuming that both parties are still interested,” the Superintendent concluded. daphne McCullough + ++ + + Face the facts, but don't dwell on the facts; dwell on what you want them to become.
