Foster's business had its grand opening a month ago. ‘‘They’re coming in here applying for a permit after a fait a compli, agreed Werner Krebser. “And that’s not the way to go.” Foster said he wanted to make use of the house he owned in Flint Hill without renting the building. He maintained his operatioi would cause no disturbance to the community and agreec to keep all furniture inside. Asked to comment Herbert Barksdale, Flint Hil resident and Wakefield’! representative on the BZA noted that Foster’s would be a family business open onh on weekends with his wifi responsible for shop operations. “That’s what he’s doing now,” Barksdale added. The board voted unanimously to grant Foster’s permit with no further discussion and then unanimously approved a request from John Burke for a second dwelling on his oneand-a-half acre lot in Harris Hollow. Burke reported that his mother’s house was sold a month ago, leaving the elderly woman with no place to live. Burke said he’s $22,642 For Bus Shop Lot Refused For years, the Rappahannock school board has been pressuring the Virginia Department of Highways fbi an offer on the school bus shop lot which will be taken as right-of-way for widening Route 211. Although construction on the road is years away the highway department agreed to cooperate, particularly since the board alleged it needed the money to build a new shop further back on the property. According to Henry Snead, the department’s right-of-way engineer, an offer of $22,642 was made by the highway department on October 10 for the 1.0445 acre parcel following appraisal by Walter A. Robinson of Warrenton. The offer was rejected by the school board represented by Sperryville attorney James W. Fletcher. At the November 11 board meeting, Newbili Miller made reference several times to a January deadline for vacating the bus shop. No public report was made at that session or any earlier meeting, however, on the board’s rejection of the highway department’s offer. According to Snead, it is policy when the highway department acquires a piece of property with a building to give the owner 90 days to vacate. For the Rappahannock bus shop, the time period started with the offer of $22,642 for the 1.0445 acre parcel, Snead said. “We’re not receptive to eviction,” the right-of-way engineer emphasized. “If it works a hardship on the property owner and if it dosen’t interfer with construction, we work with the property owner on leasing the building.” Snead acknowledged that the highway department currently has no plans for completing the widening of Route 211 between Washington and Sperryville until the late 1960s at the earliest, so a lease arrangement with the school board for the bus shop is a possibility. According to Snead, the school board may at any time start the draw down process on the $22,642 certificate of deposit on file with the clerk’s office. Snead emphasized that the board could collect the money for the property and still go to condemnation proceedings. If the amount settled on by the condemnation commissioners is higher than the highway department’s offer, then the department must pay the difference. If the amount is lower, the school board must refund the difference. Snead said he expected the condemnation case with the highway department represented by Leesburg attorney Royce Givens to go to court here within six Months. “That’s if we can't reach an agreement. The department never gives up on the possibility of reaching an amicable agreement with any property owner,” Snead concluded. i applied for and been given a building permit to construct 1 quarters for her on his lot. Then, he continued, zoning administrator Evan McNear advised after construction started that a special use permit was also required. Gardiner cautioned Burke that if the building is approved, he wonft be allowed at a later date to subdivide and sell that portion of the lot. “No sir, not as long as I’m living,” said Burke, assuring the BZA he had no intention of subdividing. "Others can fight over it after I’m gone.” He added that he had approval from the local health department for the septic field to serve the 26 foot by 14 foot second dwelling. Permita First ‘‘It seems like in this county, we do things in a retroactive way,” said Werner Krebser, objecting to the issuance of a building permit for start of construction before other necessary approvals were first secured. As a classic example of the backwards way the county conducts its zoning business, he cited Levi Atkins who continued building after being warned by the zoning administrator that his house was too close to the road and thus required a variance to setback regulations. Atkins just went ahead and finished building and then applied for the variance which was unanimously approved by the BZA. “Why can’t we see that the permits are issued first?” asked Krebser. “When these cases come to the BZA, it’s too late to do .anything about it. It’s Col. McNear’s responsibility,” maintained chairman Gardiner. “I’ve addressed m. U «~..l u -KI-. I j avis tw- v. vii "fiv subject for the 12 years I’ve served on this board to no avail.” Pete Estes asked if the building permit was for an addition to an existing house. Burke replied no. (The permit, however, describes the new construction as an addition, not a separate dwelling.) Zoning secretary Patty Alexander interjected that (Continued on Page 3) Holiday Closings In celebration of Thanksgiving, state offices, banks, schools, county offices, most businesses and the Rappahannock News office will be closed Thursday, November 27.

Flood Plain Building Okayed BZA Postpones Decision On Castleton Apartments By DAPHNE HUTCHINSON Rappahannock New* Staff Writer With a courtroom full of opponents and no development plan from the landowner, the Rappahannock Board of Zoning Appeals tabled a request last Thursday to convert a large chicken house into eight residential units. The board delayed action on Steven Parlagreco’s application for a special use permit pending an on-site inspection and recessed its November 13 public hearing until the next regular BZA session on December 11. During the hour and a half of testimony allowed before the courtroom had to be cleared for a trial, the BZA members listened to a barrage of opposition to Parlagreco’s request. Later, however, when the board continued its agenda in the clerk's office basement, E.P. Luke, chairman of the t Rappahannock supervisors, pointed out that multi-family residential is a permitted use in an agricultural zone subject to submission of a development plan and compliance with special requirements on screening, noise, pollution, smoke, odor and other items listed in Article 13 of the county's zoning ordinance. “It’s a permitted use. That's the law. If you meet the conditions (in Article 13), you -should get whatever it is you v (provided its allowed as A special permitted use). I don’t know what else we can go on,” Luke said. Earlier at the court house, Luke emphasized that the requirement for a development plan had not been met. “I’d like to see some drawings that show electrical hook-ups, sewer, parking—all those things,” the supervisor chairman said. Josef Gardiner, chairman for the BZA, responded that -a development plan must be submitted before a building permit is issued. "Sometimes that’s the case, sometimes that’s not, the case,” countered Luke, adding that the BZA should stipulate that a plan is required and “not leave it to chance.” Parlagreco brought only large color photographs of the Castleton Farms’ building on Route 616 which he proposes to convert into apartments. His attorney, Flint Hill lawyer M.F. Biddle, explained that Parlagreco plans to start a commercial vineyard on his 460 acre farm and needs affordable, convenient housing for laborers who will “be on duty 24 hours” once operations begin. According to Biddle, conversion of the 530 foot long and 40 foot wide chicken house will not involve outside structural changes. The local health department has already approved a full septic plan for a field to be located 500 feet from both the road and the proposed apartments on a reverse side of a hill, Biddle said. The little run which feeds a farm pond flows through the property on the hill’s forward slope, he added. He said that approval for the water supply to the proposed apartments has also been secured. According to the attorney, each of the eight units will include 1,200 square feet of floor space with two bedrooms, bath, living roomdining room combination, kitchen, balcony, drapes and carpeting. “This will be a quality, top-flight series of apartments,” Biddle said, noting that the units may also be rented to teachers who have difficulty finding adequate, affordable housing in the county. Don Hudson who lives just over a mile from Castleton Farms charged—without mentioning specifics—that Biddle’s description of the area was “grossly oversimplified to the point that its inaccurate.” He objected to granting the special use permit on the basis of future need for farm labor housing when a commercial vineyard operation might begin. Biddle responded that projections called for grape planting to start next June. “We have to have people to Town Addresses Water, Dogs, Siren And CenTel By DAPHNE HUTCHINSON Rappahannock Newa Staff Writer The rain that dripped and drizzled down Saturday and Monday was as welcome to Washington’s town council as it was unwelcomed by parents and teachers who had to face kids cooped up indoors. At last Wednesday’s council meeting, water system supervisor Charlie Jenkins reported that ground water shortages from three months of drought were forcing him to pump around the clock two days per week and 10 to 12 hours the other five days to supplement flow from the town well. “We’re just holding our own,” he BY MONDAY AFTERNOON freezing appeared ghostly in its translucent garb. —Rapiiihaaanti NwiPlwn/S.

Noting that the farm includes three tenant houses^ Hudson maintained that health considerations should prevent the apartment conversion of a building that was originally used as pens for pig breeding and then a chicken house. “It’s not satisfactory for human habitation,” he said. Hudson continued that the old chicken shed is very close to a highly traveled road, making the planned apartment area “a hazardous place” for children. In addition, he claimed that sewage from the apartment would pollute nearby streams and lakes. “So you’re more alarmed with the projected quality of the operation?” asked Gardiner. “No," Hudson replied, stating that he objected to a commercial Enterprise (rental apartments) located in the middle of an agricultural area "for considerations which don't even exist...It's an effort tc justify what will essentially be (Continued on Page 4) Bloomer Invited To Apply For Own Job At last Thursday’s meeting, the Rappahannock school board took no action on the renewal of Dr. William Bloomer’s four year contract as superintendent of schools which expires June 30. 1981. Instead the board voted unanimously to advertise an opening for superintendent here as of July 1. Asked to comment this week, Dr. Bloomer said he had been invited by the school board to submit an application for the job. “But I am not seeking reappointment,” he said, explaining that he would not *PPly "It has been my pleasure to have served as superintendent of Rappahannock County schools and I will be seeking other opportunities in educational fields,” Bloomer said. “The challenges I’ve engaged in here have been both professional and educational growth experiences. My hope and trust is that future decisions of the board will be made in the best interests of the students of Rappahannock County.” School superintendents in Virginia, under state law. are appointed for four year terms or for the remainder of an unexpired four year term. In both cases, contracts end on June 30. Unlike other school personnel, superintendents are not granted tenure. At the same time the school hoard voted to advertise the opening here fbr superintendent, they appointed Robert Eastham and Beverly Massie to the search committee to find candidates for the job. told his fellow council members. Asked how the pump was working with all the extra running time, Jenkins said the water system would do fine "as long as the well holds up." Mrs. Charles C. Burke, who with Mrs. Ctara Updike were the only town residents to attend last Wednesday’s meeting, asked why the council last month dropped the dog ordinance proposed for Washington. "Between the time we first considered an ordinance and when we could get it passed, the state of Virginia came out with a list of specifications for dog pounds that are really unreal,” Mayor Newbill Miller answered. He explained that construction of an impoundment facility to meet regulations mandated by the state will cost approximately $17,000, using blueprints and plans supplied by the Virginia Department of Agriculture. Mrs. Burke suggested that the town use county facilities and personnel to enforce its proposed leash law, noting that her taxes and those of other town residents paid the county dog warden. The ordinance advertised by the town for public hearing required a dog be kept on a leash when off its owner’s property. Mayor Miller noted that the county has no such ordinance and no intention of passing one. Therefore, he said, county personnel can't be asked to enforce a leash law in the incorporated town of Washington, a law much stricter than any the county has on its books. Miller noted that county dog warden Jack Bruce will pick up stray dogs running loose in violation of county ordinances. Mrs. Burke insisted that E. P. Luke, chairman of the Rappahannock supervisors, told her that the county’s warden will also enforce dog laws in town. All it would take is a letter to the supervisors, making that request, she said. “That just applies to stray (Continued on Page 4) Reward At $8,000 The reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of persons responsible for the Halloween Night burning of four barns in Sperryville has reached approximately S8.000. Money has been donated by the county, several organizations and numerous individuals. The reward will be paid only upon conviction of the arsonists. According to commonwealth attorney Douglas Baumgardner, the identity of anyone supplying information to the Rappahannock sheriff’s department or state police arson investigators will be kept confidential. James Jessup, supervisor of the local state police arson investigation unit, said on Tuesday that his men are still gathering evidence in the Sperryville area. Asked if the unit was also looking into the fire which destroyed 40 hay bales in a field near Washington Saturday night. Jessup said the incident had not been reported to his office. Rappahannock deputy John Henry Woodward who visited the scene Saturday night while Jack DeBergh’s hay bales were still burning said it appeared the fire had been set. According to sheriff W. A. Buntin, his office has not received a request to investigate the incident.

Thursday Friday Closed—Holiday Payments Trouble School By UAFHNE HUTCHINSON Rappahannock IWi Staff Writer Faced with a decision that could impact all bus route extensions, the Rappahannock school board last week agreed to continue paying Mrs. Roy Ellis 50 cents per day to transport her children in fourth and seventh grade to the bus stop one mile from their house. Superintendent William Bloomer brought to the board Mrs. Ellis’ request for an increase in reimbursement from 50 to 75 cents per day. According to the superintendent, this is the only remaining case in Rappahannock schools where a parent is paid in lieu of transportation. Bloomer recalled that, he and transportation supervisor Allie Huff checked out the road after Mrs. Ellis had requested a route extension three years ago, determined it unsafe for bus travel and so recommended payments in lieu of transportation. Nelson Lane, representative from Mrs. Ellis’ school district, said she opjy jjlrpve her children in bad weather, that the rest of the time they walked. He opposed granting the reimbursement increase, maintaining it was dangerous precedent to set at a time when the board is considering an end to bus route ■ extensions as part of its transportation policy to conserve fuel. “We have to make a basic decision—do they all walk a mile or do none of them walk a mile?” said Nancy Reeve. “Do we have bus route extensions or no bus route extensions?" She maintained that if the board required the Ellis children to walk the mile to the bus stop, a distance within the legal walking limits set by the state, then all other children on bus route extensions within those state limits will also have to walk. “Otherwise, it’s discrimination,” she maintained, noting that most of the students on existing route extensions are within a mile of another stop on a main road, according to information supplied by the superintendent. (State regulations allow students under ten years of age to be required to walk up to a mile to a bus stop and students over ten up to a mile and a half.) Asked for a recommendation, Bloomer replied that he would prefer to see the board compensate Mrs. Ellis for bringing her children out rather than sending the bus a mile in to pick them up. Describing the superintendent’s response as a “false alternative,” Robert Eastham maintained that legally the board doesn’t have to pay in lieu of transportation or send tha hue in that tka *•»/% <XXXJOOOOOOOOOOO<XXWXXXXXX50<5 TIME to SHOP for CHRISTMAS at ifc THE COUNTRY STORE Christmas Cards Christmas ornaments Gift wrap & tags Stocking stuffers Velvet ribbons Stockings Candles Artificial holly greens * The one stop Christmas Shop Wa*. ft rows.

Lane agreed with Eastham’s opposition to mileage payments. “We could be held hostage by any parent whose kids are walking the legal distance,” he maintained. “There could be repercussions.” Despite reservations, the board voted unanimously to continue paying Mrs. Ellis 50 cents per day, a schedule that works out to $90 per year. Extension Tabled On a second related request, the board tabled a decision on sending a bus down Route 649 to pick up the five, eight and ten year old children of former bus driver John Henry Woodward. According to Bloomer, the closest stop is 1.8 miles from the Woodward’s driveway. The youngsters formerly rode their father’s bus to school. The superintendent added that the winding gravel road has no adequate turn-around spot and presents a hazard to bus travel. The board instructed Bloomer to investigate the situation with Huff and bring a report to the December meeting. Who Paya? A proposal from the supervisors to pay directly all bills for an underground gas storage tank sparked a procedural fight at last Tuesday’s meeting that left two motions dead for lack of a second. During budget approval several months ago, the supervisors requested the school board to reconsider dropping underground gas storage tanks from its proposed budget, an allocation that the board had included for five years previously but never spent. The supervisors maintained that bulk buying will result in long term savings and volunteered a supplemental appropriation to finance the project. In response, the school board agreed to install the tanks. Since then, the estimate on tank installation came in much higher than anticipated and while authorizing installation, the supervisors agreed to see if they could first get a cheaper bid. Superintendent Bloomer reported the latest developments to the school board on Tuesday and concluded by noting that the supervisors wanted all bills for the tank sent directly to them. "Madam chairman, did you hear that?" demanded Eastham, insisting that direct payment by the supervisors was unlawful. "It is this school board that owns and controls the property and puts in that tank. The supervisors asked for the tank and we agreed, subject to a supplemental appropriation. Let them give us the money. The supervisors have no authority to directly pay bills for this board!” he ar^u d, maintaining that the actioi could set a precedent for ti e supervisors to later direct and pay for other, less desirable projects. None of the other board members appeared at all upset. The first response came from Newbill Miller who proposed the tank be installed in part of the bus shop lot which won’t be taken by the highway department for Route 211 expansion. Nancy Reeve described payment as a fine point. “If it’s legal, I don’t see what difference it makes.” Chairman Beverly Massie agreed, noting that the funds are county money whether they come directly from the supervisors or from the supervisors to the school board for disbursement. “I think they were just cutting down on paper work and red tape," Mrs. Massie said, volunteering to check with a legal authority on direct payment. “I want a motion.” said Eastham. demanding that Mrs. Massie be formerly directed to bring a written legal opinion to the board. “Mr. Eastham, won’t you take my word for it?” the chairman asked. "I want it in writing," Eastham repeated, moving that Mrs. Massie be so directed. When there was no second, Eastham repeated his motion. Again there was no Chester Gap 4-H’ers Elect Officers New officers elected for the Chester Gap 4-H Club are president, Angie Jenkins; vice president.

Eastham next asked how the proposal on direct payment of gas tank bills was transmitted from the supervisors. Bloomer replied that chairman E. P. Luke made the suggestion, speaking for the entire board with all members present at their November meeting. “Ah, Col. Luke again, again,” Eastham replied, writing notes rapidly on a stack of papers. After Mrs. Massie repeated that she would contact the supervisors for clarification on payment of the bills for the underground tank. Miller noted that location of the tank will affect the cost of putting it in. The further away from the shop building, a site which will eventually be taken by the highway department for Route 211, the higher the price for electrical hook-up, according to Miller. His motion to have the tanks installed on part of the bos shop lot which won’t be condemned passed unanimously. Woman's Club To Meet The Rappahannock Woman’s Club will hold its monthly meeting at the home of Mrs. Alice R. Wood near Washington on Tuesday, November 25 at 8 p.m. All members are urged to attend. From 1820 to 1977 about 48 million persons immigrated to the United States. Zoning Board (Continued from Page 1) Col. McNear, in issuing the building permit, understood the addition would be attached to the Burkes’ house. Supervisor Luke questioned the logic of allowing an addition with a building permit while requiring a special use permit for the same structure if it is just ten feet away and not attached. He expressed doubt that the county would ever find means to control the type of unauthorized construction which occurs when a landowner applies for a building permit for an addition and then changes his mind and builds a separate dwelling. Approving a second house for Burke’s lot would be detrimental only if he split off and tried to sell the second dwelling, according to Gardiner. “It appears to me that we need to be more specific on the building permits,” the chairman added, however. Col. Luke claimed that the zoning administrator had checked the slope on Burke’s lot before issuing the building permit but was corrected and informed that McNear didn’t know where the lot was even located before granting approval to build. Dropping discussion on the application, the BZA voted unanimously to authorize the second dwelling, already under roof by Thursday’s meeting, with the proviso that a restriction against further subdivision be recorded in the county deed book. \ Building? •Paint •Lumber j •MiHwork 1 •Hardware Complete One-Step BUILDING SUPPLY Warrenton Building Material Co., Inc. on the By-Pass Warrenton 347-1400 RiAiKU md REAL ESTATE INSTALLMENT SALE It is quite common, and in some cases even necessary, for the seller of real estate to finance the deal on his own. If it results in a substantial gain, serious consideration should be given to qualifying the transaction for the installment method of reporting the gain. Generally, a gain is reportable for tax purposes in the year of the sale. If the seller has accepted notes or other obligations of the buyer, payment of income taxes could be a considerable financial burden since the seller has not yet collected the cash from the sale. To overcome this dilemma, a properly structured transaction could qualify TUI nil. Illinr-w for the installment method whereby the seller would report the gain proportionately in those years in which he collects the cash from the buyer. In addition to receiving cash in the year tax payments are due. the seller also benefits by deferring the taxes. To qualify for the installment method of reporting the gain, the seller must not receive more than 30 per cent of the selling price in the year of the sale.

Audit Bureau of Circulation THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 20,1980 Clean Up Zoning Rappahannock County needs to clean up its zoning act, to borrow a piece of popular slang. It goes without saying that our local land use laws are long overdue for revision. The county’s zoning and subdivision ordinances have more holes than a sieve, holes that have been pointed out again and again by concerned citizens, local attorneys and enemy lawyers who’ve battled the county in court. We won’t go into specifics now. At this point, we’re waiting to see if the planning commission ever gets started on its repeatedly postponed subdivision and zoning ordinance review, most recently scheduled to begin at the first of the year. But aside from emphasing the urgent need for attention to Rappahannock’s land use planning apparatus, we have two additional suggestions which will improve administration of local laws. Litigation over P.E. Steve DeMent’s addition to his Sperryville antique business and the Nationwide Pentecostal Evangelistic Association’s campground on Aaron Mountain has been long and costly—and may not be over yet. The legal hassles and conflict over zoning laws which arose in both cases could have been prevented by a simple, inexpensive requirement that has been mentioned time and again but never implemented. Why doesn’t the zoning office ask every applicant for any county permit which involves construction to include a simple sketch of what is to be built? Not a drawing to scale by an engineer, just a little sketch which shoWs generally where, Whaf id&d how big. If that had been required, then the zoning administrator would have known from the start that the NPEA was planning an open air pavillion for big camp meetings, not a church; that John Burke was planning a separate dwelling, not a two room addition; that Steve DeMent was constructing a separate antique warehouse joined to his existing building by a few two-byfours nailed up over a walk-way. Permits in all three cases might have been granted anyway but responsibility for the errors would have been clearer. Most recently, Rappahannock’s Commissioner of Revenue has added her voice to those suggesting that a sketch be made a part of any permit application. The zoning administrator, as an employee of the county supervisors, must follow orders from the board. We’d like to see the supervisors formally order that the sketch be required. It’s a “no cost” proposal, the kind this county seems to find easiest to implement. Our second suggestion involves money but what the county may spend in salaries can be saved in legal fees. When the zoning office opened on November 18, it was for the first time in 21 days and with two Tuesday holidays in November, the office will be open for only two days total this month. Considering the land use questions and growth pressures the county faces, we’ve reached the time where we need more than a one-day-a-week zoning office. At the same time, we’re not to the point where we require a full-time zoning administrator. But we have other slots to fill too—those of building inspector and county engineer—so why can’t the four positions be combined into one 40 hour per week job? The added beauty of this approach is that it would put an end to buck passing. What could the building inspector say? “It’s not my fault today because ' yesterday when I was sonjing administrator I didn’t do something I was supposed to do? ” Combining the three positions will effectively give the county three fulltime employees for the price of one, increase the chances of avoiding costly law suits through better administration of local ordinances and improve the availability of services to R a ppahannocl^tax payers. Town Council (Continued from Page 1) dogs," interjected Dorothy Hawkins. "The dogs that are causing the problem here aren’t strays—they have owners." Therefore, the only action Bruce can take is to require the owner to purchase a license for the dog, not keep the animal on a leash. Having the county enforce town ordinances could set a dangerous precedent. Brad Fisher added. “We could put a parking regulation in and they’d have to enforce that,” he joked. Miller agreed to check with the supervisors to see if that board has volunteered to enforce a leash law for the town. A CenTel Telephone representative spent a half hour with the council members trying to iron out some technical wrinkles in the town’s franchise agreement with the company. Apparently, the town needed to assign a reference number to the document, according to CenTel lawyers. “We’ll give it number one," Miller volunteered, the council all grins at this closeto-home example of Bureaucratic red tape. In addition, Mrs. Vickers explained, the company has switched franchise forms since the agreement with the town was ratified last year. After 20 minutes of trying * —-L— ■ *■— A SMALL PINE TREE resembles a woman in a hoop skirt after Monday’s sleet bowed its lower branches. to figure out who was to sign what where for which date, all the names were in the right places. “Now, you won’t see me again for another 30 years,” joked Mrs. Vickers. “No, I’m just kidding—it’s always been a pleasure,” she said, leaving copies in triplicate of the franchise agreement for the town’s records. In other business, the town agreed to again contract with the Boy Scouts to decorate the town with garlands for Christmas and accepted Mrs. Waldron O’Conner’s offer to get together a group to trim the town tree. Town treasurer Brad Fisher, who also serves in the Washington Volunteer Fire Department, reported the fire company’s approval of the council’s proposal to locate the fire siren in the belfry of the new town hall. Miller added that Wayne Jenkins will inspect the belfry and give recommendations on necessary structural supports the added weight may require. Fisher was asked to consult with engineer Fanning Baumgardner on design specifications so improvements to the town’s water system can be put out for bids in the spring. In addition, the council authorized Mayor Miller to investigate the possibility of hiring two after-school CETA workers to clean up the town hall. Responding to looks of puzzlement from his council members, Miller acknowledged that CETA (Comprehensive Employment Training Act) began poorly in Rappahannock three years ago. With little or no supervision, CETA started here as a “make work” program, according to Miller. But all that has changed, he maintained, with youngsters now receiving valuable job training and meaningful employment. A RAPPAHANNOCK CHAPTER of the DAR has been organized and officers chosen. Among those attending the November 1st meeting held at Graves Lodge in Madison County were, from left, in front, Mrs. H.T.N. Graves, Virginia Chaplin DAR; Mrs. John J. Casey, First Vice Regent Rappahannock Chapter; Mrs. Walter E. Height, Organizing Regent Rappahannock Chapter; Mrs. Roy L. Beck, Second Vice Regent Rappahannock Chapter; Mrs. John J. Allen, Librarian Rappahannock Chapter; second row, Mrs. J.P. Roysdon, Virginia Organizing Secretary; Mrs. R.C.L. Moncure, National Second Vice President of the Daughters of the Colonial Wars and Member of the Bill of Rights Chapter DAR; Mrs. C.E. Johnson, Regent of the Culpeper Minute Men; Ms. Geraldine J.

The first official meeting of the Rappahannock Chapter DAR is set for Sunday, December 14 with a Christmas tea at the home of Mrs. William E. Burke at 2 p.m. Apartment Vote Tabled For On-Site Visit (Continued from Page 1) low cost rental housing,” Hudson claimed. Annette Young, landowner with a farm about two miles away from Parlagreco’s, said the photographs displayed gave a deceiving impression of the property because background and foreground weren’t incorporated into the pictures to show details of the topography, particularly the proximity to a stream. When she and her husband bought their property 16 years ago. Young said, the realtor had been very concerned about possible pollution of the stream with wastes from the then-in-use chicken shed. She maintained that the danger of pollution to Allen Run would be even worse with t sewage effluent from an apartment building. The run, she said, flows into the Thornton River, already dangerously polluted to the point where plans for an upstream sewage treatment plant and central sewage system are under way. Young also noted that the development would put increased pressure on community services—schools, police, fire and rescue and solid waste disposal. Trash would be a particular burden on the capacity of the nearby Castleton dumpsters, she said, adding that Parlagreco already burns tires on his farm, sending up clouds of thick, black smoke. Homer Henry, former owner of Castleton Farms, maintained that the 19 acre chicken house lot is currently taking all the sewage wastes that it’s capable of absorbing. Of the 19 acres, he said, eight are in steep woodland, three in flood plain and one and a half in a pond. A tenant house and a small efficiency apartment over the chicken house are already on septic fields on the lot. “That’s all the land is capable of handling,” claimed Henry. He also insisted that the wells which serve tenant house and chicken shed apartment are not adequate for eight additional residential units. According to the former Castleton Farms owner, some exterior change will be necessary in order to convert the chicken house into apartments. “Inside at the eaves, it’s only six feet high,” he exported. “Maybe they’re going to have small people live there,” Gardiner joked. Henry repeated his opposition to the apartmen project complex, “What’s to l stop him from leasing these ( apartments (to other than < farm help) and then turning > around and asking for more?” he asked, warning j that the project could "snowball.” David Konick, Washington { lawyer representing nearby i landowner J. T. Woodward, i said that the apartment i complex, if approved, will become the “dominant , character” of a neighborhood i that is now very rural with a , sparse population. Over continued interruptions from Admiral Gardiner, Konick noted that this is the first special use permit application to come before the BZA since the recent adoption of the county’s first comprehensive plan. The plan, a guide for land use and development, sets as goals protection of rural, low density settlement patterns and direction of growth toward existing villages, according to Konick. He also reported that the plan discourages strip development along arterial highways and seeks to protect prime farmland from residential and speculative development. These goals of *the comprehensive plan will be violated by approval of the apartment complex, Konick maintained. ! Werner Krebser, representing the Izaak Walton League, said a development plan is required so the BZA “can make a proper judgement on what these people want to do.” The proposal before the board, he said, “doesn’t tell us about water, sewer or parking.” According to member Howard Holschuh, the Rappahannock League for Environmental Protection is also opposed to the apartment conversion. Faced with having to vacate the courtroom and either recessing the public hearing or trying to cram 50some people into a basement office in the clerk’s building, the BZA members agreed to continue testimony on Parlagreco’s special use permit application at their December 11 session. Completing their agenda an hour later, they left for an ton-site inspection of Castleton Farms. t Flood Plain Building Before recessing, the BZA voted unanimously to grant James Russell a variance to t the zoning ordinance to allow lim to rebuild his Sperryville arry-out and food service tore which burned down five ears ago. Both the advertisement ind resolution passed at rhursday’s meeting cite the zoning ordinance section on ton-conforming uses as the egulation involved in the rariance. Article 14-7 states hat a nonconforming juilding or structure lestroyed or damaged to an :xtent not exceeding SO per ;ent of its value mav be estored within three years. It tlso states that any building lamaged to an extent exreeding 50 per cent of its /alue shall not be reconitructed unless for a conforming use or if the building is used >for agricultural purposes or as a one-family dwelling. Russell’s building, formerly Texas Pete’s Bar-BeeQue was totally destroyed by fire in August, 1975. Questioning the variance on the three year time limit for rebuilding, Pete Estes noted he wasn’t opposing Russell’s request but pointed out that the time limit couldn't be a factor since the structure suffered more than 50 per cent damage. “He couldn’t have rebuilt even if he was within the three year limit,” said Estes, maintaining that if the BZA wanted to grant a variance, it would have to find another section of the ordinance under which to authorize Russell’s request. The rest of the board ignored Estes’ argument and went on to move that the variance to the three year time limit be granted, extending Russell’s right to rebuild for another three years. Estes voted with the other BZA members to unanimously grant the variance. No mention was made of the lot's designation as flood plain even though Article 9 of the zoning ordinance speciafically forbids assuing a permit for any building, structure or sewage disposal system within 50 feet of a flood plain. The same section also states that no building, structure or sewage disposal system shall be located on a flood plain. Sign Permit Denied In other action, the BZA voted unanimously to allow Huey Atkins to expand his Sperryville Exxon Station to include a used car dealership with an eight car limit and denied Paul St. Clair’s request for a sign on Route 211 to advertise his Black Kettle‘Restaurant, located in Washington. St. Clair said he had permission from the owner of Greenfield Farm to put up a 20 foot sign opposite Gilson Whorton’s fruit stand on Route 211. (The fruit stand itself is advertized by a number of illegal signs which violate provisions of the county's sign ordinance.) "I sympathize with Mr. St. Clair’s position. He needs to advertize. All the businesses in Washington need to make their presence known to the people on Route 211,” said Candy Coombs, proprietor of The Country Store in Washington. She added however that if all Washington businesses put up advertisements, the approach to town would look "very tacky.” Also according to Coombs, St. Clair would need approval from the Virginia Department of Highways to erect a sign on 211 in any other location other than adjacent to a business. Across the street is not adjacent to Whorton’s fruit stand, she noted. “We have historically turned down signs of this nature since I’ve been on the board—that’s been 12 years—for the reason that the highway department doesn’t permit them,” Gardiner said. "The county has tried through the years to keep signs off the highways. It’s not in keeping with the zoning ordinance or in the spirit of the residents ol Rappahannock County,” he said. Coombs added tnat tne highway department has no objections to a sign welcoming motorists to the town and listing the services available in Washington. Bob Dennis, representing the Izaak Walton League, said that organization also supported having representatives from the county, the business community and the highway department work together on a single town sign "to let the public know what is where.” He maintained that the precedent of approving St. Clair’s application “would haunt us in the long run” and added that with the signs St. Clair already has, his total square footage would be over the aggregate limit set by the zoning ordinance. The vote to deny St. Clair’s sign application for his Black Kettle Restaurant was unanimous. The Little Fqx Continued from last week Letter To The Editor Histories Needed Dear Editor: The Virginia Division United Daughters of the Confederacy is beginning a long overdue project. That project will be the writing of the Regimental Histories of all of Virginia's regiments that fought in the war. "Love Makes Memory Eternal” but as the events of the War Between the States move deeper into the past, those memories are fading and slipping from focus. Each year as we meet we see that death has thinned our ranks. So many of our Daughters and especially our real Daughters are no longer with us. With their passing is oftentimes gone forever those precious memories and fond recollections that they held so dear. I am sure that the same is true with other sources of information as well. It is imperative that we begin to assemble all possible information on Virginia’s ioldiers so that it can be preserved forever in print. The writing of all of the Virginia Regimental Histories is indeed an awesome undertaking. There vere approximately 90 Virginia Regiments and Batteries that served in Virginia’s defense and over 100,000 of Virginia’s Sons answered her call to war. But if we carry into this project only one hundredth part of the determination and zeal displayed by Virginia’s Sons on hundreds of battlefields, then this project will be insured success. We are very excited about the historians who have already consented to give their aid and direction in the I actual writing of these histories. Dr. James I. Robertson of VPI and SU, l and Mr. Robert Krick, chief j historian at Fredericksburg National Historial Park, two of the foremost War Between the States historians in the country, have agreed to prepare two of the initial histories. It is hoped that by the summer of 1981 we will have six regimental histories Hmprlnti1-' In undertaking a project of this scope and magnitude, it is obvious that the Virginia Daughters need help and support from all who had ancestors who fought with Virginia units. At this time we are making an urgent appeal for anyone of Virginia ancestry to please send us a list of the following: Veterans full name, unit, date of birth, date of death, place of death, letters, diaries, photographs, etc., that he may have. Please send this' listing and your address to: Harold E. Howard 808 Sanhill Drive Lynchburg, Va. 24502 Miss Helen Kibler 35 Blue Ridge Ave. Luray, Va. 22835 743-3685 Since the writing of these histories has already begun, please send this information as soon as possible. Our heritage is one of the few tangible gits that we can pass on to our children. Please make this precious gift possible by helping us preserve the record of the heroism and sacrifice of Virginia Sons. For truly. "Love Makes Memory Eternal.” MRS. FRANK SILEK.
