Rappahannock County is part of the Culpeper District. Recommended tentative allocations for 1981-82 call for Culpeper District to get a total of $56,068,874 for interstate, primary, urban and secondary roads, $18,772,265 less than last year 1980-81. Funds available for construction and reconstruction will decrease by $98.3 million in the the fiscal year which will begin July 1 under the budget adopted last week by the State Highway and Transportation Commission. Officials attribute the reduction in funding levels primarily to a continued decline in income from state highway user taxes and from the steadily rising cost of maintaining existing state roads and city streets.

New Course Record Set In Fodderstack Classic Race . i « r\tr>r\ nr i _ By i HbKbSA Kfcl IMOLDS Rappahannock >***« Staff Writer A new course record was set on Saturday as Doug Wood of Quantico broke away from a field of 241 to finish the 10-kilometer Fodderstack road race with a time of 34 minutes, seventeen seconds. This year’s record in the threeyear-old race bettered that set last year by Chris Flavin of Washington, D. C., when he ran the 6.2 miles in 35 minutes, 8 seconds. Entrants in the Fodderstack Classic, held for the benefit of the Rappahannock Recreation Association, have been increasing steadily each year, and the race is attracting good local and notso-local runners.

Mink is a secretary for the National Geographic Society in Washington, D. C. Second place finishers - and winners of the Eva L.

Smith of Flint Hill who died two years ago. Mrs. Smith had been clerk of both General District and circuit court in the county for many years. Her son. Galley Smith 111, ran from Flint Hill to Washington one day. "ran right into the court house," according to Bruce, "and suggested we organize a race along Fodderstack." Mrs. Smith worked hard to help her son’s idea get off the ground, and so the imaginative award - a pottery cheese server, ^ complete with apple trees and running shoes, is named in her honor. This award, as well as the regular trophies, are made by local potter Jeannie Drevas and donated by local professionals and businessmen. Besides Reynolds and Strange, several other local residents made a good showing. First in the male - twelve and under category was Matt Owings of Sperryville. Katie Arnold of Huntly. was the first girl in this category. Linda Harvey of Culpeper was first in the 30 to 39 women’s category; Beth Turner of Fauquier County was first in the 40 to 49 women’s category; Martha Sutherland of Sperryville was fir^t in the 50 to 59 women’s category.

This year saw (Continued on Page 2) Preliminary Budget Calls For $6.80 Rate ny UArtimt MU l UHlIMSOIN Rappahannock l\rw» Staff Writer At the April 20 special meeting of the Rappahannock supervisors, county accountant Wally Cox handed out copies of a $3,276,723 working budget for 1981-82 that calls for a tax rate of $6.80 on real estate and $1.40 on licensed vehicles. The supervisors made no reductions on Monday in funding requests from local agencies and departments. Apparently, any cuts in the $3.2 million total will come at work sessions which chairman E. P. Luke indicated will be scheduled before the board advertises next year's budget for public hearing set for June 1. Cox pointed out that the budget can also be amended between the time of the public hearing and the state’s June 30 deadline for setting 1982’s tax rate. The rate in the preliminary budget represents an increase of approximately 53 per cent over last year’s levy of $4.40. Breaking down the major components of the tax hike, Cox attributed: —15 cents to the board's action in setting zero assessment on merchants capital. —70 cents to the elimination of taxes on farm machinery, livestock and household goods, —10 cents to increases in ' the welfare budget, —$1.50 to higher school costs. —35 cents to proposed purchase of a county landfill site, —10 cents to dispatch service for fire and rescue, —10 cents for administration of land use taxation. Offsetting the increases are reductions of 10 cents'on the tax rate trom elimination ot reassessment expenses and 20 cents from extension of revenue sharing. The accountant pointed out that $154,411 in accumulated county surplus must also be expended to lower the proposed rate to $6.80. “It would take an $8 tax rate to fund the proposed level of expenditures without using any surplus at all.” Cox noted. Taxable Worth Lower Elimination of personal property taxes on household goods, farm machinery and livestock coupled with retention of old appraisal values for another year lowers the county's total taxable property from $16,000,000 to SI2,540,000 for 1981-82. This means that 10 cents on the tax rate will now generate approximately S12.500 in revenue. To keep Rappahannock's levy at the current S4.40, at least $300,000 would have to be cut from the proposed budget, according to Cox. Since many expenditures are (Continued on Page 4) Two Prisoners Escape From Road Detail Two prisoners from Correctional Camp 26 at Haymarket escaped from a road work detail in Rappahannock Tuesday morning. Peter Courtney, 31, of Berryville and Charles Longerbeam, 27, of Sterling remain at large after making their escape while working on the Shade Road west of Washington at the Route 211 intersection. Courtney was incarcerated for breaking and entering and grand larceny and Longerbeam was serving time for a drug offense. State police and the local sheriff s department began a search after being alerted to the escape about 9:30 a.m. Trooper C. A. Moore responded with his dog but failed to pick up any scent for tracking. The state police helicopter was summoned and the pilot Milton Eaton accompanied by Trooper R. A. Baines began an air search for the men or a suspicious vehicle reportedly in the area. However the search proved futile with the apparent head start the escapees had before the arrival of the plane. — Rappahannock Newt rhotn/S. Lath am TROOPER R. A.

Land Use Hearing On May 7 t*y UAI'HWU HU I CHI hi SOW Rappahannock \rwn Staff rilrr At a special meeting on Monday, the Rappahannock supervisors ironed out the final wrinkles in a land use taxation ordinance wfiich will be advertised for public hearing set for Thursday. May 7, at 7:30 p.m. in the elementary school auditorium. “We’re going to need as much farm land in the future as we^have today,” stated chairman E. P. Luke. "If we don’t do something..." Use value taxation, the "something” currently under consideration by the supervisors, is a system of preferential assessment for qualifying property under which land is taxed on its capacity for agricultural, forestal or horticultural production rather than its market value for subdivision or other speculative development. Virginia’s General Assembly passed enabling legislation in 1973 to allow localities the option of use value taxation as a means of preserving open space and agricultural and forest lands. To participate in a land use assessment program. a property owner must meet criteria on parcel size, and history and value in farm, forest or horticultural production. Open space receiving land use must conform to the locality's comprehensive plan. If the property is changed to a use which doesn’t qualify for preferential assessment, the difference between fair market value taxes and use value taxes plus 10 per cent interest for a five-year rollback period becomes due. The supervisors agreed to include all categories allowed by the state—agricultural, horticultural, forestal and open space—in the use value ordinance. Concerned with covering costs of administering the program, they proposed an application fee of S50 plus 15 cents per acre. In addition, under the suggested or dinance. participants in land use will be required to revalidate their applications annually with the commissioner of revenue. Supervisor Chairman Luke maintained that revalidation is the only method the county has of keeping track of land in the program and determining when roll-back taxes are due. “It’s a way of keeping the books straight.” he said, adding that this approach has been strongly supported by the head of the state department of taxation's property tax division. Enabling legislation requires that any change in ownership, acreage or use be (Continued on Page 8) TWO HUNDRED FORTY-ON ESTRONG they lined up at the start of last Saturday’s 6.2-mile Fodderstack Classic.

The formal complaint filed with the Occupational Safety and Health Administration cited a missing guard from the radial arm saw, lack of ventilation in the painting room, electrical outlets protruding from the floor and “many other unsafe conditions.” Officials from Richmond have already inspected the RCHS shop and will soon issue a report to the school board, setting time frames for correction of any safety hazards, according to superintendent William Bloomer. Louise Ellis of Amissville, whose daughter Rene sustained serious injuries to her left hand last month, told the Rappahannock School Board that the tragedy of the accident is that “the whole thing was totally unnecessary.” Machinery in the high school shop should include every safety feature available, she maintained. “These are young children learning, not professionals using that equipment,” Ellis emphasized. There is “no excuse” for the missing lower guard on the radial arm saw, she continued, a safety device that would have prevented her daughter’s injury. Ellis recalled that shop teachers in the past have requested additional safety measures. “1 know it’s not the only reason but their contracts were terminated for the next year because of the waves they were making,” she charged. More Operations "That shop is not only an accident that happened but a disaster waiting to happen...There’s a lovely 14year-old girl with a mangled hand who can never have plastic surgery” because doctors are going to have to operate on the hand every six to eight years to prevent the tendons from freezing, Mrs. Ellis said. “There was someone watching over her besides the school board—that’s the only reason she has all her fingers,” Ellis concluded, suggesting that the board provide adequate protection for students.

Senior Trip Wins Board Approval— By DAPHNE HUTCHINSON Rappahannock 'New* Staff Writer Confusion over enforcement of drug and alcohol policies apparently resolved, the Rappahannock school board voted unanimous approval at its April 14 meeting for a sanctioned senior class trip. But instead of spending three days and two nights in Colonial Williamsburg as originally proposed, the seniors will go to Kings Dominion amusement park near Richmond for an evening. Plans for Williamsburg were scrapped after the school board earlier dropped the approval originally given for the outing in response to questions raised by teachers. The teacher-chaperones wanted clarification of their responsibilities for enforcement of school policies while on the field trip. Concern centered primarily on extent of investigative duties, should a drug or alcohol policy violation occur. Although school sanction was withdrawn, the board agreed to give students and teachers a day off from school to go to Williamsburg, emphasizing, however, that civil law rather than school law would apply on the trip. But questions of liability on the part of chaperones and reluctance of many parents to let their children participate without school regulations in effect led to cancellation of the activity. Last Tuesday, on behalf of the senior class, DeeDee Grant asked fhe board for authority to spend funds raised for the senior trip for: 1. a scnool-sponsored outing to Kings Dominion for the amusement park’s “senior night” on May 8, leaving Rappahannock on two school buses at 5:30 p.m. and returning at 2:30 a.m., with the senior class to pay for gas, drivers' salary and drivers' admission to the park. 2. color 8 x 10 group photographs of 'the class in caps and gowns at $4.50 apiece for each senior. 3. $200 donation, if money is left over, to the RCHS drama department for a blue stage backdrop. Investigators? If the trip is approved, DeeDee asked, will chaperones have investigative responsibilities normally assumed by the principal on violations of school policies? If the trip is not approved, she continued, can hinds be divided between the seniors to defray expenses of cap and gown rental and printing of graduation announcements? Should the Kings Domioion trip be approved as a school sanctioned function, DeeDee emphasized that seniors understand all school rules will have to be followed. She asked again for information an how chaperones are to react if a rule is broken. Policy requires the teacher to report policy violations to the principal on return home, not to investigate, according to chairman Beverly Massie. “That means it would not be my function to carry out any investigation or question the students as to who was involved, where did the B & E ANTIQUES Rt. 522 Flint Hill We Buy and Sell New and Used Furniture Open: Saturdays 10 to 5 Sundays 12 to 5 i Rappahannock Ncuib Rappahannock & Adjoining Counties per year $7 00 Elsewhere in the U S per year $8 50 Outside the U S per year $7 00 plus postage SUBSCRIPTION RATES BY MAIL ALL PAYABLE IN ADVANCE ( )New ( JRenewal ( ICheck Enclosed NAME___ ADDRESS_._._ CITY _____ STATE__ ZIP_._ t nieied as second class mail at the Post Office in Warrenton Va The Rappahannock News is published every Thursdav at 39 CulDeper Street Warrenton Va by The ■Vaiienton Printing and Publishing Co PO Box 631 Warrenton.

She added, however, that in their capacity as chaperones, teachers will be expected to supervise students on the trip. “If that is your function...! would assume all chaperones and sponsors would be with the students and would guide the students if they thought the children were getting involved in something detrimental.” Common Sense "We’re getting too lecmncai, :»aiu newoui Miller of attempts to narrowly define the responsibilities of a chaperone. “Use good common sense. You’d probably have to do some investigation on the spot—observe and ask one or two questions on what is involved...I'm willing for the school to sponsor the trip and 1 expect you to use good common sense in enforcing school policies to the best of your ability,” he told Patterson. “I have confidence in you. You’re a man of great ability."Miller added. Noting that field trips are not covered in the drug and alcohol policy, Patterson suggested that specific guidelines be added. “I agree but we don’t have time to do it before May 8,” Miller replied. “I don’t think anything win nappen. 11 $ not me feeling of the board that anything will happen,” Mrs. Massie interjected, adding that she felt teachers had the same responsibilities to supervise the students as someone who takes the child of a friend on a trip. Patterson also pointed out that the Kings Dominion outing was scheduled further away from the date of graduation than the Williamsburg trip had been, allowing for added flexibility in discipline should a violation occur. With no further comment, the board voted unanimously to approve activities and plans for expenditure of funds as proposed by the senior class. At Mrs. Massie's suggestion, the motion included emphasis on the responsibility of chaperones to supervise students.

IU1TDI • MULTIPLE LISTING SERVICE Multiple Listing Service (known as MLS) is probably the fastest way to sell a home today for it gives the seller the greatest amount of exposure in the shortest amount of time. Under this system, the seller lists his home for sale with only one REALTOR member of the regional MLS. A comprehensive listing form is filled out giving all the particulars of the house, and a picture is taken. This information is sent to the central office where it is reproduced and sent to all member offices. The other member REALTORS make all appointments through the originating office. Of course, this gives you greater exposure to prospects than if your house is listed with only a single REALTOR. As the seller, you still pay only one commission, the same as under a single exclusive listing. The REALTOR with whom you list the house received all the commission if he makes the sale, and part of the commission if another REALTOR produces the buyer.

Member, Audit Bureau of Circulation THURSDAY, APRIL 23,1981 Planners Endorse Garage Amendment oy LfATHNU HU Rappahannock News Staff Writer Recently, garages seem to be springing up on Rappahannock's back roads as fast as weeds in a vegetable garden. The spurt began last fall with Jerry Mills’ application to rezone one acre next to his parents’ general store at Estes for a garage and inspection station. Despite objections from neighboring landowners and an opinion from the commonwealth attorney that approval would not qualify as an extension of an existing commercial zone, the supervisors followed the planning commission’s recommendation in approving the rezoning from agricultural to commercial. Neighbors did not oppose Mills’ garage, which had been in operation for over two years without zoning approvals, but rather what they argued was spot zoning not in character with the area which would give Mills rights to a long list of other commercial uses. Next came Charles Dodson's application in January for a similar garage rezoning at Slate Mills. Echoing the same objections raised in the Mills case, adjoining landowners opposed the application to rezone fyom agriculture to commerma). v On Dodson’s request, the supervisors again followed the planning commission’s unanimous recommendation but this time, the decision was to deny the application. Then just a few weeks later. Hushel Settle sought a rezoning from agricultural to commercial for an already operating garage on Route 729 just a few miles down from Mills’ business. Caught between conflicting precedents and with all speakers at the public hearing in favor of Settle’s request, the planners tabled the rezoning application and instead proposed an amendment to the county ordinances. Best Possible Solution At their April 15 meeting, following another public hearing, the commissioners unanimously recommended that the supervisors approve an amendment which would allow garages and used car sales (limited to five vehicles at any one time) with a special use permit in an agricultural zone. Noting the large number of garages in the county, commissioner Newbill Miller said he could see the need for businesses of that type, particularly when the country’s economic situation is such that it’s more feasible to fix up an old car rather than spend S20.000 for a new model. Allowing garages in agricultural districts witn a special use permit (issued by the board of zoning appeals) “makes more sense” than approving a commercial rezoning which would allow a whole list of uses that the county’s governing body never intended for more rural areas, Miller said. He added that he had “some reservations” but maintained that the proposed amendment provided “the best solution other than the ideal” which would be to confine all commercial uses in one area. Several landowners nearby or adjoining Settle’s garage opposed the amendment. Phillip Strange noted his objections, particularly to the provision for car sales, on the grounds that the use wasn't ' in character with the rural nature of the area. His arguments, however, were directed more towards Settle’s intended business operations rather than to the countywide impact of the proposed amendment to the zoning ordinance. Dangerous Precedent “This would establish a very dangerous precedent and encourage others to apply for an automobile dealership,” Strange said, adding that motorists turning to gawk at Settle’s collection of cars would present a danger to other traffic and to the bike riders and joggers along that section of Route 729. Ike Parrish stated objections to a commercial rezoning for Settle but after learning that the proposition before the planning commission was not for a zoning change but instead for an ordinance amendment that would allow garages with a special permit, he said he didn’t oppose Settle’s special use permit. “I wouldn’t want it to go on beyond him,” he added, however. ‘‘What’s to stop a snowballing of special use permits?” asked Strange. He argued that others would apply “and on and on and on until we have a real commercial area.” “You’re building a place to make furniture,” Settle countered. “You’re going to make furniture and you’re going to sell it so don't jump up on my hind end!” he said, asking what was the difference between a furniture business and his garage operation, both moneymaking ventures. “You fight me and I'm going to fight you," Settle warned. Parrish interjected that he and his family would have no objections to the garage if Settle moved it a quarter mile further back from the road. Settle pointed out that he’d discussed his business operation with Parrish before Duiiaing tne garage several years ago. “You agreed that if I put the garage back in the mountain, you’d have no complaint," he said, noting that he’d bought an additional piece of property so he could comply with Parrish’s wishes. ‘‘Now what’s your complaint?” Settle asked. For Garage Speakers in favor of the ordinance amendment likewise limited their comments to Settle’s garage. “I don’t see how it would hurt anybody to let the man have what he asks for,” said Brown Compton who lives directly in front of the site. Speaking for herself and her husband, Mrs. David Compton added her support. “We’re all for it. 1 don't see how it will hurt anybody.” “You’re going to have a permit with rules laid down that you’re going to have to follow,” said Joyce Settle. “I see no reason why with a use permit, a person can’t go about his business...There are not too many places in the county where you can make a living,” she said, adding that two-thirds of Rappahannock’s residents have to leave the county to find jobs. “I’m in favor of the garage," stated Mrs. Hazel Cook. “I’m in favor of the garage too, as long as we have some controls,” interjected Parrish. Commissioner David Fannon emphasized that if the ordinance amendment is adopted by the supervisors, it will only give Settle the right to apply to the board of zoning appeals for a permit, not automatic authorization for his garage and used car sales. He pointed out that the BZA can attach “stringent conditions" to the permit, even going so far as to require that the site be screened. “I understand what you’re saying,” Settle replied. “I’m after new dealers tags and state inspection station and I'm willing to do whatever it takes to get it.” Like Miller, Fannon said he too had reservations on the proposed ordinance amendment, particularly the allowance of used car sales. “But I think it can be handled," he added. J. R. Latham, representing the supervisors at the planning commission meeting in the absence of E. P. Luke, was asked to comment. The amendment “implicates more than this one case of Mr. Settle’s. I think that’s what we’ve got to look at,” he responded. With no further discussion, the vote was unanimous to recommend approval of the proposed ordinance amendment to the supervisors. A PROCLAMATION declaring April 19-25 Private Property Week has been signed by Col. E. P. Luke, Chairman of the Rappahannock County Board of Supervisors. With him is Eileen M. Day, a realtor, in Washington, and member of the Piedmont Board of Realtors. The proclamation states in part that “Of all the rights we have, one of the most precious is the right to acquire real property and to own it, use it or transfer it as we see fit. without interference, as long ts we do not infringe on the right of others. Budget Calls For $6.80 Rate (Continued from Page 1) income-related, reductions would also lower revenues the county can expect to receive, he added. Schools About 70 Per Cent The biggest chunk of the county’s proposed $3.2 million budget comes from school expenses. Superintendent William Bloomer was at Monday’s public hearing along with four board members to explain the $2,279,186 school appropriation request to the supervisors. In the synopsis of the proposed school budget advertised for public hearing, instruction for regular day school, which includes teacher salaries, is the largest single item at $1,056,891. Bloomer noted that teachers and all other school employees will receive a 12.4 per cent “cost of living raise" under the proposed budget. Of fixed charges covering social security, retirement and insurance payments, the second largest item in the school budget, $140,648 of the total $288,374 will be reimbursed by the state, according to the superintendent. For the first time this year, the line item also includes partial payment of medical insurance premiums for all school employees. The budget for 1981-82 reflects only one staff addition, a half-time speech therapist “needed to meet state and federal mandates for providing services to the children,” Bloomer said. For another major item, $247,460 in transportation services. Bloomer said he figured the price of gasoline at $1.80 per gallon. for regular and $2 for unleaded. The proposed budget shows two major decreases pointed out by the superintendent: in other instructional costs due to a drop in the number of children Rappahannock sends to Piedmont Technical Center’s special education programs and in contracted maintenance services due to the completion of a three year roof repair project. No Capital Outlay Supervisor chairman E. P. Luke noted that the school board’s budget doesn’t include anything under capital outlay for expansion of the high school. If funds are borrowed from the State Literary Fund to begin building this year, money needs to be added to cover debt service in 1981-82, he said, asking the school board for an estimate on cost of construction. Massie replied that the board will be in a better position to give a cost projection at its May meeting when screening of 14 architects interested in the capital outlay project is completed. Accountant Wally Cox interjected that the 1981-82 budget doesn’t have to include money for school expansion. If capital outlay is to be funded with a three per cent loan from the literary fund, interest payments do not begin until construction is completed and payments toward principal don't start until a year after the project is finished, he explained. While building is going on, monthly construction bills are to be paid by the county with reimbursement from the literary fund coming at the end of every month, Cox explained. Therefore, he said. it’s necessary only to keep enough in the county's surplus funds to carry the monthly bills—estimated at 10 per cent of the total project—until state reimbursement comes in. Unexpected Money School board member Newbill Miller reported that the county will also receive $22,000 from the Virginia Department of Highways and Transportation, the state's offer for the school bus shop which will be taken by widening of Route 211. He suggested the money be earmarked as a cushion for construction bills. The supervisors will also get back between $30,000 and $35,000 left over from the appropriation for school bus gasoline in the current budget, Robert Eastham pointed out. Added to the $22,000 from the bus shop condemnation, the money should cover any construction bills until reimbursement is received from the State Literary Fund, he said. Eastham objected, however, to giving the supervisors an estimate for inclusion in the 1981-82 budget on what an expansion program for RCHS will cost. “There’s been no approval yet of any building program,” he emphasized. If such a program is eventually okayed. Eastham added, no one can estimate at this point what it will entail. Luke asked how the school board had arrived at its decision to apply three per cent of salary toward hospitalization premiums for school employees, maintaining that this upped the teachers’ raise in the proposed budget to 19 per cent. Injury Leads To Safety Check (Continued from Page 1) Chairman Beverly Massie replied that the school board is a policy making body and acts on the recommendations of the superintendent. Without information from the administration, the board has no way of learning about problem areas she said. Mrs. Massie added that the board reacted in the fall to a safety hazard brought to its attention by authorizing installation of “panic buttons" to turn off shop machinery in an emergency. She noted that the switches were in the process of being installed when Rene Ellis' accident occurred. The shop is inspected for safety hazards by the school's insurance carrier, the state's labor department and officials from the state department of education, according to Superintendent Bloomer. If hazards aren't pointed out. "it’s difficult for me. as superintendent, to be aware of them," he said. New Requirement Bloomer acknowledged that the radial arm saw has only a top guard but noted that a bottom guard was not recommended when the machinery was purchased. “It’s required now” on all new radial saws bought for high school shop Mrs. Ellis countered. “Right,” Boomer agreed, "but unless things like that are brought to our attention, we have no awareness of them.” "Don’t you think it’s a good idea to request amendments to the safety rules (that apply to education programs)?” Ellis asked. She expressed doubt over whether hazards uncovered by the state's inspection will be corrected. “There’s no question about that,” board member Nancy Reeve assured her. Nelson Lane remarked on the high level of safety consciousness shown by the RCHS shop instructors. Chairman Massie agreed that both men "preached safety to the children all the time...But you can't guarantee, even when all precautions are taken, that something won’t happen." Asked by Robert Eastham for more information on the alleged safety hazards in the shop area. Mrs. Ellis told the board that electrical outlets protruding from the floor where desks are located have shocked several students. With the desks in the way, the plugs can’t be used and so should be eliminated, she said. Mrs. Ellis also notea that she’d lodged a specific complaint about lack of venilation in the paint room. She added that she filed her complaint and raised the safety issue with the board after first dealing with the administration, because she felt nobody was going to do anything. Safety Top Priority Since his appointment to the board, Eastham said, "at no time has any item—finances, discipline, anything—been put ahead of safety.” the board’s “first priority.” If hazards exist in the shop area, “it will be a good thing to get your input,” he told Mrs. Ellis. “Other things have to come next because safety’s first," he repeated, maintaining that the board has “reacted to all" unsafe conditions brought to its attention. Noting that her husband was a builder and that she has experience with construction tools and machinery, Mrs. Ellis said she has never seen a saw without a complete set of guards used in a teaching situation. The shop instructor, she maintained, doesn’t want a bottom guard installed because if a board backs up in the saw due to the extra guard, the wood is damaged beyond use. Asked by the board members if the guard on the bottom of the radial saw could have prevented the accident, the superintendent said with the extra guard, "the damage to the hand (Continued on Page 8) Bloomer explained that the board decided to pay a percentage of salary as a means of giving the greatest benefit to experienced teachers. This fringe benefit will provide impetus for experienced teachers to stay in Rappahannock, he said, thereby cutting a turnover rate that has approached 40 per cent for the past several years. Asked for experience levels of the county’s teachers, Bloomer replied that in 1980-81, 29 of the county’s 62 teachers had zero to one year’s experience and 12 had two to three years’. Most of the teachers who leave Rappahannock for positions in other school divisions fall into the four to seven years experience bracket, he said adding that partial payment of hospitalization premiums will help retain teachers. Early Approval Requested In conclusion, the superintendent asked the supervisors for approval of the teacher pay scale as early as possible to aid in recruitment. In addition, he said, current teachers are waiting to sign contracts for the coming year until they see what their salary and benefit package will be. Sharon Kilpatrick, the single person attending the public hearing who wasn’t directly connected to the schools, asked the supervisors to add funds for four modular units to the proposed budget. She suggested this as an alternative to “brick and mortar construction” since the school board is considering an expansion involving only three classrooms and guidance offices. The board’s tentative building plans don’t include replacements for the three existing classroom trailers or enlargement of the overcrowded library and cafeteria. “It’s just a temporary patch-up to provide more classroom space. It won’t make the high school adequate," she said, questioning why the county should go into debt for 30 years to fund a totally inadequate high school construction program. “I think we shotild just add modular units until the mood in the county changes.” Kilpatrick said. Eastham countered that the board will not even consider expanding the cafeteria until the administration first tries three lunch periods as suggested to relieve overcrowding. Class Interrupted "It's time for someone to explain in public just what is meant by three lunch periods.” Kilpatrick replied. In the first lunch shift, students will eat and then Rappahannock New» Photo/Daphne Hutchinaon MUSIC MAKERS from Rappahannock elementary school who recently participated in the Solo and Ensemble Festival were (left to right, front) David Fisher, Stephen Wiley, Tom Massie, Chad Bear, (rear) Marc Wiley, Tara Fisher, Leslie Nichols and Jane Kidwell. have an uninterrupted class period. Likewise in the third lunch, students will attend an uninterrupted class period and then eat. But in the middle shift, Kilpatrick explained, students will spend 20 minutes or so in class, eat lunch, and then come back to that same class for the remainder of the period. Students in the second lunch shift can’t come from home ec, shop or science classes where period-long projects would be interrupted by lunch, she pointed out. Testing will also be a problem in academic classes going to second lunch shift, Kilpatrick said. “There are a lot of educational consequences with three lunch shifts,” she emphasized, adding that this was probably the reason why the administration hasn’t greeted the school board’s suggestion with much enthusiasm. “The cafeteria seats 90 kids and there are over 400 in the school. It can’t be adequate!” Kilpatrick concluded. With no other speakers, Luke closed the public hearing on the proposed school budget. Following an executive session on personnel with the school board members, he announced that the supervisors should be ready to act on the school budget by their May 4 meeting. He added that if cuts are made to proposed school expenditures, the supervisors should reduce the bottom line total, letting the school board decide where to absorb losses. Revenue Projection Low In response to a question from H. B. Wood, Cox reported that it will take an increase of $210,000 in local money to support the proposed school budget. As listed in the advertised budget synopsis, the school .j board expects to receive $276,583 in sales and wine * tax revenue in 1981-82. Cox told the supervisors that this projection is probably about $30,000 too low. Addressing the entire county budget, he pointed out that Rappahannock’s supervisors spent $50,000 more than budgeted for fiscal year 1980-81. At the same time, the county received $123,000 more in revenue than expected, leaving a net gain of $70,000 in surplus funds over what was anticipated. Cox said. Hand Students Win Awards Eight elementary band students represented Rappahannock County for the first time in District IX’s annual Solo and Ensemble Festival held Saturday, April 11, at Seneca Ridge Middle School in Sterling. Several youngsters participating won superior and excellent ratings for their renditions and will receive medals at the elementary school’s spring awards assembly in recognition of their achievements. This was the first competition for Rappahannock’s contingent. As part of District IX, they competed with students from Prince William, Culpeper, Fauquier, Loudoun and Warren counties. Local youngsters, their instruments and the pieces they performed were: —Jane Kidwell, two Russian songs on flute; Leslie Nichols, II Primo Canto on clarinet; David Fisher, Fanfare and Ceremony March on trumpet; Tom Massie, Among the Stars on trumpet; Tara Fisher, two Russian songs on flute; Stephen Wiley, Iliad on trumpet; Marc Wiley, Silver Skater Waltz on trombone; Chad Bear, Julia Maurine Waltz on trumpet. The elementary band is part of the after-school music program directed by Robin Dexter. The Little Fox

It is important to understand the significance of flat feet Although they look cosmetically unattractive, their improper function is what is important. Flat feet work in a manner similar to a car's front end and when it is out of alignment and other parts of the car also tend to break down We feel that it is the improper functioning of the foot that leads to the formation of bunions, corns, and callouses. If treated early enough, these deformities can be prevented from occurring. Unless excessively severe, however, treatment is not started until the age of 2'/i years. Toeing in or toeing out is a similar problem that also should be treated at an early age. A public service with the aim of promoting a better foot health environment from the office of Dr. B.

The County of Rappahannock finds that the preservation of real estate devoted to agricultural, horticultural, forest and open space uses within its boundaries is in the public interest and, having heretofore adopted a land-use plan, hereby ordains that such real estate shall be taxed in accordance with the provisions of Article 1.1 of Chapter 15 of Title 58 of the Code of Virginia and this ordinance. SS 2. (a) The owner of any real estate meeting the criteria set forth in SS SS 58-769.5 and 58-769.7(b) of the Code of Virginia may, at least 60 days preceding the tax year for which such taxation is sought, apply to the Commissioner of the Revenue of Rappahannock County for the classification, assessment and taxation is sought, apply to the Commissioner of the Revenue of Rappahannock County for the classification, assessment and taxation of such property for the next succeeding tax year on the-basis of its use, under the procedures set forth in SS 58-769.9 of the Code of Virginia. (In any year in which a general reassessment is being made such application may be submitted until 30 days have elapsed after the notice of increase in assessment is mailed.) Such application shall be on forms provided by the State Department of Taxation and supplied by the Commissioner of the Revenue of Rappahannock County and shall include such additional schedules, photographs, and drawings as may be required by the Commissioner of the Revenue of Rappahannock County. An individual who is the owner of an undivided interest in a parcel may apply on behalf of himself and the other owners of such parcel upon submitting an affidavit that such other owners are minors or cannot be located. An application shall be submitted whenever the use or acreage of such land previously approved changes; provided, however, that such property owner must revalidate annually with the Commissioner of the Revenue of Rappahannock County any applications previously approved. An application fee of fifty dollars ($50.00) plus $0.15 per acre of land for which preferential assessment is sought shall accompany each application. (b) A separate application shall be filed for each parcel on the land book. SS 3. Promptly upon receipt of any application, the Commissioner of the Revenue of Rappahannock County shall determine whether the subject property meets the criteria for taxation hereunder. If the Commissioner of the Revenue of Rappahannock County determines that the subject property does not meet such criteria, she shall determine the value of such property for its qualifying use, as well as its fair market value. In determining whether the subject property meets the criteria for "agricultural use" or "horticultural use" the Commissioner of the Revenue of Rappahannock County may request an opinion from the Commissioner of Agriculture and Consumer Services; in determining whether the subject property meets the criteria for "forest use" she may request an opinion from the Director of the Department of Conservation and Economic Development; and in determining whether the subject property meets the criteria for "open space" she may request an opinion from the Director of the Commission of Outdoor Recreation. Upon the refusal of the Commissioner of the Agriculture and Consumer Services, the Director of the Department of Conservation and Economic Development or the Director of the Commission of Outdoor Recreation to issue an opinion, or in the event of an unfavorable opinion which does not comport with standards set forth by the respective director, the party aggrieved may seek relief from any court of record wherein the real estate in question is located. If the court finds in his favor it may issue an order which shall serve in lieu of an opinion for the purposes of this ordinance. The applicant for land use shall provide all information necessary for approval and processing of the application. Said information shall include relevant data from the local Extension Service, Soil Conservation Service and/or Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Services offices. SS 4. The use value and fair market value of any qualifying property shall be placed on the land book before delivery to the treasurer and the tax for the next succeeding tax year shall be extended from the use value. SS 5. There is hereby imposed a roll-back tax, and interest thereon, in such amounts as may be determined under Virginia Code SS 58-769.10, upon any property as to which the use changes to a nonqualifying use. SS 6. (a) The owner of any real estate liable for roll-back taxes shall, within sixty days following a change in use, report such change to the Commissioner of the Revenue or other assessing officer on such forms as may be prescribed. The commissioner shall forthwith determine and assess the roll-back tax, which shall be paid to the treasurer within thirty days of assessment. On failure to report within 60 days following such change in use and/or failure to pay within 30 days of assessment such owner shall be liable for an additional penalty equal to ten per centum of the amount of the roll-back tax and interest, which penalty shall be collected as a part of the tax. In addition to such penalty, there is hereby imposed interest of one-half per centum of the amount of the rollback tax, interest and penalty, for each month or fraction thereof during which the failure continues. (b) Any person making a material misstatement of fact in any application filed pursuant hereto shall be liable for all taxes, in such amounts and at such times as if such property had been assessed on the basis of fair market value as applied to other real estate in the taxing jurisdiction, together with interest and penalties thereon, and he shall be further assessed with an additional penalty of one hundred per centum of such unpaid taxes. SS 7. The provisions of Title 58 of the Code of Virginia applicable to local levies and real estate assessment and taxation shall be applicable to assessments and taxation hereunder mutatis mutandis including, without limitation, provisions relating to tax liens and the correction of erroneous assessments, and for such purposes the roll-back taxes shall be considered to be deferred real estate taxes. SS 8. This ordinance shall be effective for all tax years beginning on and after January 1, 1982.

If a change occurs, it is necessary to reapply and pay another application fee. As an example, a farmer who sells an acre off of a 100-acre parcel receiving land use must reapply for the balance of his 99 acres at a cost of $64.85. There is no charge, however, for revalidation if no changes have occurred. Supervisor H. B. Wood agreed that revalidation will be worth the effort. “They can do it when they come in for their county tags,” he added. Without the revalidation requirement, “I think there are a lot of people in the county who will conveniently forget” to report changes in their property. Luke added. As for the $50 plus 15 cents an acre application fee, the supervisor chairman noted that this can be adjusted up or down later as the need arises. “We’re trying to get the program to pay for itself administratively,” he said, adding that the commissioner of revenue thinks another employee will be needed—at least when the program first gets underway—to handle land use.
