Rappahannock was the ultimate victor in last Sunday’s game at Fannon Field, outscoring Farmington 5-3. By DAPHNE HUTCHINSON Rappahannock New* Staff Writer Maintaining that “law should follow common sense," Judge Rayner V. Snead ruled at a hearing on August 31 that the Rappahannock Board of Zoning Appeals had the authority to both issue and revoke the special use permit granted to P.E. Steve DeMent last year. The special use permit granted DeMent on April 14, 1977, to build a garagestorage area addition to his Sperryville antique business—and its subsequent revocation on June 9—have sparked debate and litigation that have dragged on for over IS months. Although Judge Snead ruled on two points of law at the August hearing, a final decision that may require DeMent to take down his new building won't be forthcoming until at least November 13. Snead agreed to a continuance to that date at the request of Waugh Crigler. DeMent’s attorney. In beginning his arguments. Commonwealth Attorney George Davis, representing the Rappahannock Board of Supervisors. read from Article 9 of the county zoning ordinance which states "no permit shall be issued for any building, structure or sewage disposal system to be located on a floodplain." "Is it your argument that there can never be a building permit issued in Sperryville?" asked Snead. "Is that what Benefit Polo Brings $1,200 Approximately 400 spectators, a record breaking crowd for Fannon Field, watched Rappahannock beat Farmington in last Sunday's polo match to benefit the county Historical Society. Although the field was wet, there were only three spills. Neither horses nor riders were injured. Farmington jumped off to an early lead in the first chukker with a goal from Roger Reinhardt. Jr. The second chukker was scoreless and Rappahannock came back in the third to move ahead with goals from Robby Reinhardt and Brad Shear. Farmington's Roger Reinhardt. III. tallied in the third period and the half ended with the score at two all. Rappahannock regained the lead immediately in the second half with another goal from Shear and then ran away with the contest on George Greenhalgh's scores in the fifth and sixth chukker. Farmington's Roger Reinhardt. Jr., tallied once more in the sixth period but it was too little, too late as Rappahannock won, five to three. The afternoon was a real community affair—from junior hostesses Belinda Burke. Marion Eastham, Donna Gore and Sarah Massie who helped serve the chicken dinners to the spectators who helped replace the divets in the field at half-time. Between ticket sales and the barbeque chicken dinners that were sold on the grounds, the Historical Society made over 51,200. "We are delighted with the results." commented Virginia Lyndstrom. Historical Society president. “Everyone said they enjoyed it thoroughly." Lane Killed In Crash William Lane, Chicago industrialist and Rappahannock's largest single land owner, was killed Monday. September 18. in New Mexico. New Mexico State Police report that the 01 year-old Lane died Monday evening when the car he was driving hit a boulder and burst into flames. Lane was alone in the car at the time, according to police. Lane was chairman of Lane Industries and president of General Binding Corporation. He owned 292,000 acres of land in New Mexico, including the major portion of the old Bell A UTUMN BEGINS When the center of the sun crosses directly over the earth’s equator, at 5:26 a.m. (EDT) on September 23. astronomers will note another autumnal equinox, marking the beginning of fall. "From that moment on September 23 until the beginning of spring.” Dr. Paul H. Knappenberger Jr., director of the Science Museum of Virginia, explained. “the sun will be south of the equator, providing less heat in the northern hemisphere.” Only twice each year, on the first day of autumn and the first day of spring (usually March 21), does the sun rise due east and set due west.

Special Meeting The Rappahannock Board of Supervisors held a special meeting on Friday, September 15, at 2 p.m. According to Clerk Diane Bruce, secretary for the Board, the Supervisors went into executive session with Commonwealth attorney George Davis to discuss litigation. During the open portion of the special meeting, the Board considered and rejected four proposals for additonal work at the new Gcrk’s office. Reward Offered Amissville Ruritan Gub and other citizens of the Amissville-Viewtown area have joined efforts and are offering a SI000 reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the alleged rapist who attacked a young woman on July 26. If anyone wishes to make a contribution, it will be added to the amount already offered, according to T. C. Barron, president of the local club. RCHS WoesCited In’76 By DAPHNE HUTCHINSON Rappahannock Vw» Staff Writer In a report to the School Board dated January 7, 1976, the Committee to Study Space Needs at Rappahannock County High School recognized “the need for construction and alterations" and listed priorities as: 1. Expansion of the cafeteria and kitchen. 2. Additional restrooms. 3. Additional classrooms. 4. Increased office and storage space. The Committee, composed of Beverly Massie (chairman). Robert Anderson, J. R. Latham and Emory Russell with then Superintendent and Assistant Superintendent O. A. Norton and T. A. Fleetwood as advisory personnel, made no recommendation in their report. Instead, they concluded that there were "too many variables involved to recommend a course of action.” In the opinion of the Committee. more information was needed "regarding the status of the kindergarten program and the direction of the ‘County Building Program.' " In findings on enrollment, the Committee stated that “the membership at RCHS will remain fairly constant over the next five years” and quoted enrollment projections of 459 for 1977-78. 464 for 1978-79 and 447 for 197980. However, the figures listed appear open to question. This year’s senior class numbers 78 while the current seventh grade class totals 100, according to attendance figures. Assuming all seniors graduate and all seventh graders move up to the high school, it will result in a net gain of 22 students in classes at R.C.H.S. In addition, attendence figures show that more children transferred INTO Rappahannock schools than out of school here last year. According to the report, the original capacity of the high school was 285 when the building was constructed in I960. Additional classrooms and a shop were built in 1966 to handle 100 more students, increasing the classroom capacity to 385. Currently. 465 students are enrolled. The report also noted that none of the base facilities—cafeteria, restrooms. guidance, office and storage areas—have been enlarged past the original 285 capacity they were designed to serve. As all of the high school classrooms are currently in use EVERY period during the school day, it would be impossible to expand the curriculum beyond what is currently offered. In the 1976 report, the Committee noted that "Rappahannock offers only the minimum number of academic units (26) required by the state " This applies today for the 1978-79 year also. In addition, the high school offers the minimum number of electives mandated by the state. According to the '76 report. "it was often necessary for a teacher to pack up his-her materials and change rooms as many as 4 or 5 times a day. This is necessary so that classes with large enrollments may be scheduled in the larger rooms." The same situation still exists in the 1978-79 (Continued on Page 2) In School Building Program Gas Tanks Have Top Priority By DAPHNE HITCH INSON Ka|>|iahann<irk Vwn Staff 'R rit«*r Bulk gasoline storage tanks — not additional classroom space at the high school—have top priority in capital outlay building projects, according to lists presented by the Rappahannock School Board members at last week's meeting. Chairman Beverly Massie has previously requested the other Board members to decide on thei» personal priorities and had scheduled a discussion on capital outlay for the September meeting. At the September 12 session, she went around the Board table, asking each member individually for the building needs he felt were most critical. Alan Stokes gave installation of bulk gasoline storage tanks and pumps as his first—^and only—priority for capital outlay. Board member Walter Masterson had no priorities. According to Masterson. no building projects should even be considered as long as more than 370 children at the elementary school are reading below grade level. Improvement in reading, he insists, should receive undivided attention first. Arthlinda Quaintance also had no priorities for capital outlay. Paul Nichols gave installation of the bulk tanks as his first priority with sewage disposal plants at both the elementary and high school second. Nichols listed 'relief for congestion in the high school" as his third priority. Board Chairman Beverly Massie's first priority was bulk gas tank installation with improvement of conditions at the high school second. “Does the Board still wish to meet with the Supervisors for a discussion of capital outlay?" Mrs. Massie asked. (In addition to establishing priorities for capital outlay, she had previously set the September School Board meeting for deciding on a date for a joint meeting with the Supervisors on building projects.) ‘‘They should be informed," said Mrs. Quaintance. “Maybe they already are." she added. Mrs. Quaintance also acknowledged that she was unaware of the situation at the high school since she had not visited there herself. 100 Per Cent Filled Superintendent William Bloomer reported that 100 per cent of the high school (Continued on Page 2) you're saying? It would mean the whole town will wither and die eventually, wouldn’t it?” "Until they have a proper sewer system," Davis answered, "the Board of Supervisors are determined (not to allow) any additional burden to the land." He noted that sewage from every building in Sperryville empties directly into the Thornton River. If the building didn't create any burden on the Thornton, “then it would be alright to have a building?" Snead questioned. Davis replied that buildings can be constructed after the sewage system is completed but until then, county ordinances protect Sperryville's flood plain from pollution and run off by prohibiting the issuance of building permits. In recalling the sequence of events. Judge Snead stated that DeMent applied for a use permit and as a result of BZA action in granting the use permit, a building permit was issued. “So you contend it's invalid?" he asked Davis. It is the Supervisors' contention. Davis said, that the BZA had no jurisdiction to issue a special use permit in a flood plain for the type of structure applied for by DeMent. As the use permit was invalid, he continued, so is the building permit issued pursuant to the use permit. "The ordinance clearly prohibits any structure within a flood plain." he concluded. No Permit Necessary Waugh Crigler, DeMent’s attorney, began his argument by insisting that no use permit was required in the First place. According to Crigler. DeMent submitted a proposal to "repair, improve and upgrade" his existing antique business with the extension and breezeway. He then cited Article 5-1-1 of the zoning ordinance that gives uses permitted bv right in Sperryville’s residentialbusiness district including the right to "repair, improve and upgrade existing facilities to continue in their present use." However, Crigler did (Continued on Page 5) Legal Bill Still Unpaid The county's legal bills keep piling up, but at the September meeting of the county Supervisors, the Board appeared unanimous in its decision to ignore the ever increasing debt—at least for a while. As part of the routine review of accounts. Clerk Diane Bruce read a bill for $.1,794 from attorney Robert Fitzgerald for work on two cases for the Board of Zoning Appeals. Noting an additional charge of $283.t>0 since last month in the suit involving P. E. Steve DeMent. the Supervisors and the BZA. Ms. Bruce pointed out that the bill included costs through August 15 only. "They've been in court since then." she added. Commonwealth's Attorney George Davis advised the Board to wait until litigation in both the DeMent case and the suit involving the Rappahannock Ski Corporation. the Supervisors and the BZA is terminated before acting on the debt. Chairman E. P. Luke THE RAPPAHANNOCK SCHOOL BOARD MEMBERS began to droop slighriT^thTd^JuS marathon meeting that drug on until 1:15 a.m. last week. Around the table from left to right were Paul INichols, assistant superintendent Robert McDaniel, chairman Beverly Massie, superintendent William Bloomer, Alan Stokes, Walter Masterson and Arthlinda Quaintance. 2 noted that the Board had agreed to pay the tees in the DeMent ease. Davis argued that the Supervisors had not included "’’’any budget items for payment of the BZA's legal fees beyond the $1,800 already paid on account. (He has contended in the past that the Supervisors cannot legally pay the BZA's legal bill beyond the amount included in last year's budget in the BZA account. Col. Luke, on the other hand, has maintained repeatedly that the Supervisors are responsible for any bills that the BZA incurs since it is "a creature'' of the Supervisors.) The consensus of the Board was to wait until the final charges in the litigation are tallied before taking any action. In setting up the budget this year, noted Luke, the Supervisors appropriated money for the BZA but kept it under the Super visors' control. "It comes out of our account. We make the (Continued on Page 3) hxecutive Session On Monday, September 11. the Rappahannock School Board held a special executive meeting at 8:30 a.m. in the courthouse. With Superintendent William Bloome excluded from the closed session, the School Board met for approximately two hours with attorney Phillip C. Stone, a member of the Harrisburg firm of Wharton. Aldhizer and Weaver. According to Board Chairman Beverly Massie, the School Board members discussed what they are allowed by law to do. In addition, said Mrs. Massie, Stone explained the grievance procedure that applies to School Board employees. She acknowledged that Stone's firm was a recognized expert in School Board law. having argued cases successfully before the State Supreme Court. She also noted that Stone currently acts as legal advisor to seven different School Boards.

Used Car Lot Approved By DAPHNE HUTCHINSON Rappahannock Vm Staff Writer At a meeting held Thursday, September 14, the Rappahannock Board of Zoning Appeals issued a special use permit to Eddie Sutphin to operate a used car lot on Route 211 at the old drive-in theater site. In an attempt to retain some type of control over the operation, BZA members insisted upon adding conditions to the permit and emphasized that the permit could be revoked if these conditions weren't met. Zoning Administrator Evan McNear reported that the 3.3 acres belonging to Sutphin were currently zoned commercial. He added that the property was now being used to store farm machinery. "It looks terrible," commented BZA member Hal Forward. "It will look worse as soon as they get those wrecks on there." Chairman Josef Gardiner added. Noting that the theater existed prior to the adoption of the zoning ordinance in 1^73. McNear said the property’s commercial zoning came under the grandfathei clause and was still valid ever though the theater use had been discontinued. If Sutphin had wanted another theater there, "I would have insisted that he come in for a special use permit,” the Zoning Administrator added. BZA member George Muth asked where Sutphin intended to have customers park. "They shouldn't be allowed to park on the highway at all.” McNear responded. Forward interjected that parking along Route 211 is already prohibited by state law. Can And Farm Machinery Sutphin informed the BZA that he planned to display only a few cars—15 or 20—with some farm machinery on the lot. "Are you going to do anything to the property?" asked Forward. "I'm gonna clean it up and make it look a little better." Sutphin replied. "Are there any neighbors who might object (to the Paid Political Advertisement We have a good Congressman who knows us and works for our good. Let s keep him in office.

Sutphin answered that he hadn’t heard any complaints from Everet Estes, his only close neighbor. (No one appeared before the BZA to oppose Sutphin's application. As the meeting was held in Ruth Blackwell's office rather than in the upstairs courtroom where the BZA regularly meets. Col. McNear checked the hallway outside the office several times to make sure no one who wanted to testify was being excluded. In addition, the BZA members repeatedly emphasized that the application had been advertized for two weeks in the Rappahannock News, according to law.) Noting that Sutphin was not going to manage the used car lot. Gardiner pointed out that both parties—the leasee and the owner—jointly applied for special use permits in the past. McNear countered that regulations require the property owner only to make application for a special use permit. ‘ He's the one who will be responsible." McNear added. With a formal lease, argued Gardiner. the property owner has no control over the land. "The operators will, in effect, be the owners of the property until the lease expires." he maintained. Without both names—the land owner's and that of the used car lot operator—on the permit, "who's responsible for keeping up the property and seeing that conditions in the special use permit are adhered to?" asked Gar diner. "We all will." Sutphin replied. "I will be using the property as much as they (the car lot operators) are since I'll be keeping farm Birth Announced Mr. and Mrs. Edward Deaves of Washington.

He acknowledged, however, that the license to sell used cars would be under the names of Emerson Bennet and Morris Butler. According to Bennet, both he and Morris were born and raised in Rappahannock and plan to move back to the county eventually. He reported that he had a used car license registered in Alexandria, adding that the license could easily be transferred here. Unravelled Details BZA member Pete Estes assured Sutphin that the Board had "no objection to the permit if we can get all these little details unravelled." He emphasized that the BZA members were not fighting Sutphin's permit but "just trying to see what the situation is." Forward commented that granting Sutphin's application could prove to be "an opportunity to clean up a real eyesore or. on the other hand, make it look worse than it is now." Candy Coombs asked if the permit would be valid should Sutphin sell the property. MeNear answered that misconceptions regarding special use permits existed throughout the county. "Ordinarily, an activity can pass on from owner to owner." he said, "unless the BZA attaches stipulations that state otherwise." T. L. Fast ham. a land owner who lives one and a half miles down the road from Sutphin's property, maintained that granting the special use permit could only improve conditions on the old theater lot. "It can only go one way and that is up." he said. Gardiner suggested that the permit be issued contingent upon Sutphin retaining control of the property with Ben net and Butler required to reapply for a permit in their names should they purchase or formally lease the three and a half acres. The rest of the Board agreed with the chairman's proposal. "What can we include so that we have the authority to revoke the permit if our conditions aren't met?" asked forward. Gardiner proposed that the BZA stipulate how mam vehicles could be displayed on the lot at any one time.

However, he noted, even with maximum utilization, administrators at the high school were forced to combine study halls, putting two classes and two teachers into one room. “So we're beyond capacity," he said. Describing the situation at the high school as “critical," Bloomer maintained that the administration had been ‘forced to put classes in rooms that are inefficient as far as teaching is concerned." He informed the Board that science classes were being held in rooms “without running water or gas for experiments." In response to a question on restroom facilities at the high school. Bloomer answered that there was a single boys bathroom at the end of one of the two hallways in the L-shaped school and a single girls room midway down one of the hallways. "The crowded conditions at the elementary school have not received as much publicity." Bloomer continued. Over the last year. Bloomer noted. Rappahannock Elementary School has added positions of speech therapist, learning disabilities resource person, child development specialist, school psychologist and educational diagnostician. Learning disabilities and speech therapy classes are held in the two small rooms that previously served as the school clinic. The psychologist and learning disabilities teacher share a cubbyhole in the library that used to be the audio-visual room. The educational diagnostician who comes two days a week must oust either the principal or assistant principal front their office to use the room for testing, children for placement. The situation at the elementan school regarding class spact is 'not adequate." Bloomet concluded. for his second and third priorities. Bloomer listed a new. relocated bus shop and expansion of central office space to include room for school records that are currently stored in Warren County. More Specifics Required Nichols interjected that it might be better to make an assessment oi space needs and include options for solving those needs before meeting with the Supervisors. "Something more definite would be better to work with." agreed Arthlinda Ouaintance. In response. Mrs. Massie named Paul Nichols as chairman ol a committee to study school space needs. She volunteered hcrxelt to serve on the committee and also appointed Walter Masterson with Dr. Bloomer as an "advisory member." "I'd like to recommend that the entire Board meet with the school principals and visit the schools during the day to see what the needs are." interjected Don Bomberger. high school math teacher and former president of the Rappahannock County Educational Association. In addition to the crowding at the elementary school referred to by Bloomer, Bomberger reported that the music teacher there must push a piano around front class to class as there is no space for a music room. He also noted a storage problem at both schools. Mrs. Massie recalled that members ol the School Board along with other community representatives had served on a space study committee four years ago and had then Farmington Hunt Club Fall Horse Show Sept. 29, 30 & Oct. 1 Charlottesville, Va. Divisions • Working Hunter • Green Working Hunter • Green Conformation • Pony • Junior Hunter • Amateur Owner-Hunter Fantastic tardSatv Sh!., Scftt. .'W III to I Hi thekrounds assessed needs at the high school. (See separate article.) She added that the committee had been unable to make a recommendation at that time because of the possibility of a capital outlay project for a new county office building. Bomberger remarked that the previous assessment on space needs had been done several years ago. Noting that the School Board had indicated interest in expanding the math program offered at the high school. Bomberger contended that this would be hard to accomplish without additional class space. He reported that a high school teacher who had previously served on state acreditation committees predicted that the high school cafeteria and library would not meet criteria on size for the number of pupils served. "Every year, the library loses a room." he said, explaining that this year, the new part-time guidance counselor had been given office space in the library. "The only way that the School Board can find out what the problems are is to talk to the teachers and the principals.” he maintained. Follow Procedure Mrs. Massie countered that the principal makes recommendations to the superintendent who in turn makes recommendations to Massie Selected James F. Massie of Amissville will represent Southern States Cooperative members in the Sperryville area at the cooperative's district election meeting to be held October 2 at the Holiday Inn in Culpeper. Cordon Thornhill of Boston and Kent Henry of Castleton, managers of the local Southern States retail outlets in Sperryville and Warrcnton will also attend. The session will elect a member of the cooperative to serve on its Board of Directors for the next three years. The member elected will be confirmed at the cooperative's 55th annual stockholder's meeting in Richmond. Va.. on November 15 and 16. Tfie group will also select a nominating committee for the 19X1 election meeting. the School Board in a procedure that has been followed by the Rappahannock Board in the past and would be adhered to in the future as well. Noting that Commonwealth Attorney George Davis and other zoning experts are of the opinion that subdivision growth can't be stopped in Rappahannock, Sharon Kilpatrick asked what effect this growth will have on the size of the county’s school population. She maintained that it was time to start on an educated guess as to whether the current class was really the largest eighth to 12th grade group that would be enrolled at the high school. Paul Nichols, as chairman of the needs assessment committee, assured the audience that his group would investigate all the matters mentioned. “We have confidence in what Dr. Bloomer says—at least I do,” added Mrs. Quaintance. “He's better qualified to visit the schools (and assess the situation there) than I am.” ‘Til look for you to follow his recommendation, then,” Bomberger concluded.

The plan as submitted calls for a 35 Acre lot on back of property, 15 Acre tract on Rt. 211, presently 50 Acres to R. O. Bridges, two 25 Acre tracts sold, one 15 Acre to be sold, retaining 35 acres. The above division requires rezoning from A-1 and CV-1 to RS-1 and RS-1 in a CV-1 district. BY: RAPPAHANNOCK COUNTY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS DIANE BRUCE, CLERK EARLY'S CARPET SALES & SERVICE ROUTE 211—AMISSVILLE 937-5111 If you prefer not to buy top quality wool carpeting, then it is better to buy a carpet made of acrylic, modacrylic or polyester fibers, rather than a cheap wool. Since these fibers look like wool and have similar qualities, they are a good substitute. Of the fibers mentioned, polyester may be slightly stronger than acrylic or modacrylic. Polypropylene or olefin fibered carpeting is particularly recommended for kitchens because it is non-absorbent and easy to clean. The quality of construction is important for this purpose. There are also the so-called novelty natural fibers, such as flax, sisal, jute and straw. Their texture and price make them attractive buys. Much depends upon the particular manufacturer and the quality of the carpet. You can depend on EARLY’S CARPETS, Route 211. Amissville. 347-0700 & 502 N. Main St.. Culpeper, 825-8232 for all types of quality carpeting. Featuring the area's largest selection of prestige carpeting, we offer selections from Lees. Mohawk, Armstrong. Patcraft, Masland and Philadelphia, and our own trained people do all our installations. Often: 9-6, Mon.-Fri.; 9-5 Sat. eves by app't. HANDY HINT: It will be to your benefit to buy from a reliable dealer who has firsthand knowledge of a fibers performance rating. SD2 N. Main St* Cuipipflr, 825-8232 Legal Bill Still Unpaid (Continued from Page 1) decisions," he stated. “But we did agree to pay DeMent,” he said, in a parting shot. There was none of the usual reluctance expressed at paying Community Trash for pick-up and clean-up at the dumpster sites during August although the bill amounted to $3,762. Not a single Supervisor commented. Earlier in the meeting. Col. Luke reported that Community Trash will charge an addition $667 per month to increase the pick-up frequency at Huntly, Scrabble and Amissville dumpsters to three times per week. Burke Appointed Luke informed the Board that Social Services Director Flizabeth Bunt in had suggested Becky Burke be named to the Area Manpower 'Planning Council as representative from Rapspahannock. According to Luke, the Council’s main purpose is to assess the job situation in RappahannockRapidan Planning District 9. "The Council is being reorganized," explained Mrs. Buntin. "They're trying to make their programs more receptive to the needs of localities." She said that the Council was primarily involved in working with the Comprehensive Employment Training Act (CETA). In the past, she noted, attendance at the Council meetings had been sketchy with Rappahannock not represented at all. She called the reorganization "a good thing... In the past, we haven't known enough about Manpower Council programs." Pointing out that there have been only two county CETA employees during the past year, both in the school system. Mrs. Buntin maintained that CETA may be "an untapped resource." She also told the Board that Welfare Eligibility Worker Ellen Mustoe was on the Council, chosen because of her involvement with WIN recipients in a program that requires mothers receiving aid to dependent children to accept suitable employment. Supervisor H. B. Wood asked if the county was entitled to reimbursement for any costs entailed in representation on the Manpower Council. Mrs. Buntin replied that Rappahannock could receive reimbursement for travel costs accrued—the only expenses allowed to the volunteer representatives from the Governor's Man • v.w. vemcie specialist • Repairs on Most Foreign and American Cars 30 A»hby St., Warrenton, Va. 347-3785 power Planning Council if the local agencies cannot afford to pick up the bill. She also noted that the representatives were entitled to a benefit on their income tax returns for their volunteer efforts. The Supervisors voted unanimously to appoint Mrs. Burke as their representative on the Manpower Council. "We’d like a report on what's going on when those councils meet,” Col. Luke asked. On another item, Mrs. Buntin asked the Supervisors whether they wanted to require the Welfare Department to present them with an annual operations report. The report used to be mandatory, she noted, until switched to local option by the General Assembly. She recalled that she used to present the annual report during the county’s budget process. "But the last two years. I’ve been denied that privilege" she said, by having the Supersivors hear her budget explanation in committee rather than with the full Board membership present. Mrs. Buntin maintained that the annual report was a very good idea but noted that she had little time to devote to preparation. She added that a report could be as involved or complicated as the Super visors wished it to be. "Make it to suit yourself and then see if it suits us." suggested Supervisor H. B. Wood. "Whatever you'd like to do," agreed Luke. Supervisor Butch Eastham commented that he didn't think a formal report was necessary since the Supervisors always asked questions during Welfare budget considerations. Luke interjected that any report should be given prior to budget work. Where’* The Money Going? Supervisor Clarence Baldwin supported the requirement for a welfare operations report. "I think ' the taxpayers would like to know how their money is being spent even though we don't have a lot of control...It's a big budget, a lot of money. They should get a chance to read it whether they understand it or not." Wood agreed that county citizens deserved the right to know how the Welfare Department’s money is spent. After assessing the position of the Board. Luke agreed that Mrs. Buntin should try to have her operations report readv for March or April. In other action, the Supervisors adopted a resolution proposed by Rappahnnock Lions Club president Howard Holschuh, declaring October 7 World Lions Service Day in the county. Holschuh reported that the Club planned to tackle refurbishing work at the Recreation Center outside of Washington as a service project. The Board also agreed to advertise Ian Pryde's Blue Rock farms rezoning from conservation to residential subdivision for public hearing at the next Supervisor meeting. In addition, the Supervisors formally approved the Planning Commission's request for help on the county's mandated comprehensive plan from the RappahannockRapidan Planning District Commission. BY: Nancy B. Secrist Extension Agent With cool weather coming, we will be cooking more and using more energy. For those who have electric kitchens and have taken notice of the additional amounts charged for fuel adjustments and energy surcharges, efficient methods in the kitchen are a must. A representative from Potomac Edison will present a program entitled Be A Watt Miser, which deals with efficient ways to use kitchen appliances, Thursday, Sept. 21, at 7:30 p.m. in the Flint Hill Fire Hall. If you cannot come, the following fuel saving tips are offered: Range-top cooking: Use the smallest container or cooking unit possible to fix foods. It costs twice as much to bake two medium potatoes in a standard oven as in a toaster oven, for example. Match pan size and shape to range units. Small pots on large units waste heat. For short cooking time, flat bottomed copper or aluminum utensils conduct heat most efficiently. Cast aluminum or cast iron hold heat well and are best for long cooking times. Place pots on range units before turning on the heat. Turn heat off before cooking is dompleted and use retained heat to finish job. Use tight-fitting lids to retain heat when boiling water or cooking on the range. Cook food in as little liquid as possible. If making instant coffee or tea, boil only the amount of water needed. Cooking time will be shorter. Oven cooking: Foods requiring an hour or more of cooking time should be prepared in ovens or electric skillets, not on range tops. Ovens or thermostatically controlled skillets will be off part of the time, saving energy. Glass or porcelain enamel baking utensils absorb heat well and allow oven cooking at temperatures 25 degrees lower than those needed for metal cookware. Don't preheat ovens unnecessarily. Most baked goods, except for delicate items like cakes, do as well without preheating. Also, setting oven temperatures higher than necessary does not speed preheating. Cook several foods in the oven at once; total energy used will be less than for cooking each item separately in the oven or on top. Heating an oven to bake one pie or two rolls is a waste of energy. Such small items can be baked in sturdy utensils on top of the range, or in small toaster ovens. Closed Doors...Don't be a “peeker” when baking or roasting. Every time the door is opened, oven temperatures drop 25 degrees. If it is necessary to handle foods while cooking, remove them from the oven and quickly close the door. Turn heat off before cooking is finished. Retained heat can complete the process. When roasting turkeys, for example, oven can be turned off 30 minutes before cooking time is up. fiinaf {^Jribu/f CLORE FUNERAL HOME "The Home of Thoughtful Service" PHONE 825-2361 CULPEPER CEMETERY MEMORIALS rated GEstate\ Jl.

Yet, a well-built home in a good neighborhood is one of the best hedges against inflation your money can buy. In the recent years of inflation, for example, home and land values have more than kept abreast of the general rise in prices. This means your home investment puts you considerably ahead of the game financially. Not to mention the pride and pleasure that home ownership can bring you. There is no reason to believe that this situation will change in the near (or not-so-near future). The government's tight money policies have put a crimp into single family home building starts during the past few years but the demand for these homes is constantly increasing. So. it looks like prices will continue to rise. Add to this the tax benefit of home ownership which allow you to keep more of what you earn.

The Rappahannock School Board’s discussion on capital outlay projects scheduled for the September Board meeting was definitely not representative of real need. If the thirty some citizens who attended the meeting expected to hear a realistic assessment of building needs for the county’s school system, they were disappointed. Instead, two Board members had no priorities for capital outlay while the remaining three listed installation of bulk gasoline storage tanks as the most critical building need for Rappahannock’s public schools. We won’t argue whether gas storage tanks are really that important. But why make them the number one priority in capital outlay projects when there's already money in this budget to buy the tanks and put them in? The 1978-79 school budget, approved by the School Board and the XfCn/ut Supervisors, sets asides .UOO for preparation of the site for the new school bus garage and allots $8,000 for gasoline tanks and pumps, including installation. If the School Board’s already got the money for their first priority, why keep it a priority? What’s equally as hard to understand is why two Board members had nothing they felt was necessary as a capital outlay project. Two and a half years ago, a committee, chaired by the current School Board chairman investigated the high school and found certain conditions there grossly inadequate. Nothing’s been done since—no rooms added, no alterations made in the cafeteria, office cm- bathrooms—yet two members of the Board had no priority capital outlay projects in mind. One member’s only concern was the gas storage tanks. While two others gave improvement in conditions at the high school as one of their priorities. The gas tanks are already taken care of in this year’s budget. The State Water Control Board will give the School Board no option but to correct inadequacies in the school sewage systems. So why not make improvement of conditions at the county’s TWO public schools top priority for capital outlay? Toll Free Calls Considered Telephone subscribers in the Washington. Virginia and Flint Hill areas are being asked whether they want to have their local bill increased so that they call Front Royal with no toll charge. Central Telephone Company mailed a survey form to all Washington area customers this week. Extended Area Service (HAS) to Front Royal would broaden by 7.500 the number of customers which Washington subscribers could dial without paying long distance charge. Customers must return their survey to Centel by November 18, 1978. to be included in the poll's results. Under present regulations, a majority of those voting must vote in favor and at least 70 per cent of all customers must return their survey for EAS to be approved. If approved by a majority of Washington area customers. Front Royal customers must also vote favorably before the local calling area could be extended between the two areas. According to the plan, residential customers in Washington who have one party service would pay an additional $2.97 per month. This additional rate would eliminate the toll charges to Front Royal. The survey was sent out as a separate mailing and included a letter explaining the new rates if EAS were approved. If approved, the service could be in operation within two years. *.«v Rappahannock New* Staff Photo/Sarah 1 Our Rappahannock Heritage Prize Winners A great number of prizes were awarded during the recent musical program held at the Rappahannock Recreation Center at Washington.

"Were reaching for the class of vehicles that you want to sell,” said Estes, suggesting that the permit limit sales and display to "operating motor vehicles." State regulations require either that used cars carry a current inspection sticker or that the dealer inform the prospective buyer that the vehicle will not pass inspection, according to Emerson. He also noted that state laws stipulate 250 feet of office with toilet facilities on the lot. One Sign By Right Mrs. Coombs asked what Signs would be allowed by right to the used car operation. “One small sign," answered McNear. "A special use permit is needed for all others." Gardiner added that the sign allowed by right has to be on the property. "It can't be up the road." At Forward’s suggestion. Sutphin's application was changed to read sales of farm equipment as well as used cars sales. A restriction on the number of vehicles displayed on the lot was rejected. "He'll just put his own self out of business if he crowds them all up," Estes maintained. The BZA members also agreed to crop a stipulation on the number of inoperable motor vehicles allowed on the lot since this is covered by the zoning ordinance's absolute prohibition against automobile graveyards. By definition. a graveyard consists of two or more inoperable motor vehicle exposed to the weather. However, the Board members agreed to add the provision that Sutphin must abide by all zoning ordinance regulations. They also prohibited tractor trailers from being stored on the lot. After a unanimous vote to grant Sutphin's application with the attached conditions. Estes again reassured Butler and Bennet that they should have no problems with securing an extension of the special use permit as long as their-operation complies with the established standards should they rent or buy the old drive-in property from Sutphin. “We’d have to have specific, legitimate reasons to turn you down," Estes said. “We’d have to have a complaint...We can’t turn you down because we don't like Mr. Butler and because you're interfering with —Rappahannock News Photo/Daphne Hutch in aon MOUNT SALEM CHURCH Restoration Association, represented by Rev. Gale TitcheneU of Woodville, was awarded the first award for community excellence from the Rappahannock League for Environmental Protection. President Phil Irwin made the award at RLEP s quarterly meeting on September 8. i anyone else's business," he concluded. On a second application, the BZA members voted uanimously to issue a special use permit to Camille Harris, director of Sursum Corda School, to operate a school and day care center for children in a house on Route 626 just outside of the town of Washington in the Tiger Valley. The permit was granted for two years, contingent upon Health Department approval that will limit the number of children to be served. In other business, the BZA voted unanimously to extend trailer permits for Raymond and Rosie Hitt, Mr. and Mrs. Fred Dermitt and Sgt. Raymond Brown. On a final item, the Board requested McNear to send copies of all special use permit applications to each BZA member before the Zoning Administrator mails a copy of the approved permit to the applicant. "Then we can get it solved early if there is a problem,” Forward commented.

(Continued from Page 1) contend that the BZA had the authority to grant a special use permit, “assuming it was necessary.” He noted that the Code of Virginia delegates the power to establish a Board of Zoning Appeals to local government and lists the BZA’s powers, “one of which is to grant special exceptions.” He also pointed out that section 10-3 of the county zoning ordinance confers the power to grant special use permits on the BZA. If the BZA acted in violation of other ordinances in issuing the special use permit, argued Crigler, then it should be charged with abuse of discretion in acting in an arbitrary and capricious manner, rather than overstepping bounds of authority. In reply to Davis’ position that the construction of a building in Sperryville’s flood plain placed an additional burden on the Thornton River, Crigler noted that DeMent’s building didn't even have a sewage system. Responding to the prohibition of building in a flood plain, Crigler stated that the Supervisors would be acting in an unreasonable and unconstitutional manner if they said no construction could take place in Sperryville’s flood plain. That would mean ”a major commercial segment can't be improved. It wipes out growth." Crigler said. In reference to the BZA’s right to revoke a special use permit, Crigler cited the Cedar Knoll case as precedent. According to Crigler, the state Supreme Court ruled in that case that the Board of Zoning Appeals did not have original jurisdiction to revoke a special use permit. Clear Difference Judge Snead countered that “there's clearly a distinguishable difference” between the DeMent and Cedar Knoll cases since the Fairfax BZA attempted to revoke the building permit involved in Cedar Knoll 30 years after it was issued. Only the time span is different, according to Crigler. Virginia operates under the Dillon Rule, he said, and since the General Assembly granted the power to revoke special use permits to the Zoning Administrator, "the only way the BZA can get into it is to hear the appeal from that revocation." Crigler acknowledged that the BZA had the right to attach conditions to a special use permit but he insisted that this hadn't been done in the DeMent case. "Doesn't the record show that the BZA revoked the permit because of failure to comply with conditions?” asked Judge Snead. Referring to the use permit and a cover letter from McNear. Crigler said the permit stated that DeMent could build a 70 foot by 40 foot garage-storage addition to an existing building. Further, he said, the letter stated that the special use permit was issued by the BZA in accordance with the county zoning ordinance. '"There doesn't appear to be any conditions," Snead remarked. i m not saying tnat matters weren’t discussed at the (BZA) meeting but that's a question of evidence...a question on whether the court is* going to go outside the record that has been sent forward by the BZA," Crigler said. He added that the record also showed the permit was revoked by the chairman of the BZA. BZA Powerless? "What about this?” asked Snead, stating a hypothetical situation in which the BZA issues a special use permit with conditions and it Building? I •Paint •lumber •Mlwork •Hardware * Complete One-Step BUILDING SUPPLY Warrenton Buiding Material Co, Inc on the ByPa« Warrenton 3*7-1400 Judge Rules For BZA becomes immediately obvious that the applicant is not complying with those conditions. "You mean to say that the BZA is powerless to do anything about it?" he asked. Crigler answered that the BZA must instruct its administrator “to go out and make a determination" with the applicant having the right to appeal the administrator’s decision. The BZA is not powerless, he insisted, adding that in the DeMent case, the BZA failed to act according to Virginia law. “As I understand the record, this (revocation) was done in conjunction with the Zoning Administrator,” said Judge Snead. “No sir,” Crigler responded. He argued that the Zoning Administrator “never issued a statement” that the special use permit was revoked and never gave DeMent the right to appeal. “Well, now we’re talking about administrative details, aren’t we?” asked Snead, adding that “law should follow common sense.” Strict Construction Citing again the ordinance provision prohibiting the issuance of a building permit in a flood plain, Davis contended that the special use permit granted DeMent by the BZA was, “in effect," a building permit. According to the Commonwealth Attorney, Virginia's Supreme Court has ruled that the BZA can’t issue a variance unless it is within the framework of the statute and ordinances. The BZA, he argued, "has no discretion. Strict construction applies here...They can only grant a variance when it is shown that the ordinance places a hardship on a particular property" as opposed to a class of property. Robert Fitzgerald, attorney for the BZA, contended that the ordinance must be read in its entirety rather than relying solely on the section that prohibits building in a flood plain. He said it's necessary to consider everything that pertains to the area where the DeMent property is located. Fitzgerald noted that DeMent’s property is zoned RB-1 as are the entire villages of Sperryville, Flint Hill and Woodville. According to the ordinance, any legal activity pursued at any of the villages in 1973 when the ordinance was enacted "may be continued.” As an extension of a lawful use, DeMent was told by the Zoning Administrator that he needed a special use permit before he could get a building permit to enlarge his antique business, according to Fitzgerald. He contended that the special use permit granted by the BZA in April included specific conditions: 1 • the new construction had to be 70 foot by 40 foot; 2. the new construction had to be an extension of the existing building. Fitzgerald argued that adoption of Davis' position regarding prohibition of flood plain building would mean ignoring ordinance provisions that allow certain uses in the Sperryville area with a special use permit. Judge Snead stated that he was adopting the argument put forth by Fitzgerald and Crigler and ruled that the BZA had the authority to grant a special use permit. He called Davis’ argument for prohibition of building in a flood plain “too constrictive... It would mean that Sperryville couldn't grow in any way." Moving on. Snead described the question of revoking the special use permit "a little more difficult." Not In Compliance Fitzgerald began by contending that the building permit issued by McNear was not in compliance with the special use permit granted by the BZA. The building permit, he noted, allowed the new construction to be joined to the existing building by a breezeway while the special use permit made no mention of any such breezeway. Fitzgerald argued that there was no question but that the BZA could have revoked the special use permit at the meeting following the issuance of that permit. Lack of compliance with permit conditions was brought to the attention of the Zoning Administrator at the following meeting and McNear subsequently wrote a letter to DeMent, according to Fitzgerald. Then, he continued, DeMent wrote back, claiming that the building permit complied with the special use permit. At the June meeting, said Fitzgerald, the BZA "in continuous action” suspended the special use permit until it could be made clear to DeMent what the conditions were. DeMent then asked for a meeting with the BZA and was heard—in effect, satisfying legal requirements for an appeal, according to Fitzgerald. “At that hearing, the BZA said ‘We don't agree with you, Mr. DeMent. What you’re doing is not what...was granted in the use permit for you to do...We revoke that permit,' ” Fitzgerald said. He conceded that state law doesn’t give revocation powers to the BZA but argued that the precedent for the case didn't address whether the Supervisors could delegate revocation powers to the BZA. Further, he pointed out that the Rappahannock Zoning Ordinance specifically gives revocation powers to the BZA. “The BZA doesn't have the right to determine whether the ordinance it’s acting under is valid or invalid," Fitzgerald maintained. “It is duty bound to comply with the law.” Maurice Biddle, attorney for DeMent’s adjoining land owners. stated that "revocation must be included within the power to grant as a matter of law and a matter of logic." Really Building Permit Did the BZA revoke a building permit or a special use permit?" asked Davis. "My contention is, even though it's called a special use permit, it is in reality a building permit." He maintained that the Zoning Administrator did not deny the building permit applied for by DeMent but rather "simply referred it to the BZA.” The BZA, according to Davis, had no original jurisdiction to issue a building permit. “They can call it a special use permit application if they want to...but it is identical to what would be required in a building permit. A cat might have kittens in an oven but they’re not biscuits,” he remarked. “We might as well be looking at Alice in Wonderland if we adopt your argument” that a special use permit is really a building permit, countered Judge Snead. He continued that he had no difficulty with the revocation question. He ruled that the BZA was clearly within its rights in revoking the special use permit. “The ordinance says so,” Snead stated. “It’s not up to the BZA to interpret the ordinance. This is a matter for the courts to do." Crigler disagreed with the Judge's contention that the BZA had revoked DeMent's special use permit acting in conjunction with the Zoning Administrator. He argued that the Judge would have to listen to the testimony of witnesses before deciding if certain things alledged by the BZA’s attorney did indeed occur. In answer to a question from Snead. Crigler said he wanted to present additional evidence on whether the 50 foot set-back was a condition of the special use permit and whether the breezeway connecting the new structure with the existing building was discussed. "There were witnesses who were here and can testify beyond what is included in the record." he maintained. Over the objections of Biddle, who contended that 15 months should have been enough time for Crigler to gather his evidence, Judce Snead continued the case until November 13 at 2 p.m. "Hopefully, we’ll have a final disposition then," he concluded.
