Permits approved
Special use permits requested by Claudia M. Trinca and C.E. Gallagher, Jr. were approved by the Rappahannock Board of Zoning Appeals on Sept. 25. The BZA also approved one of the permit requests submitted by Aileen, Inc. in Flint Hill.
Aileen, Inc., which last month opened a factory outlet store near Flint Hill, filed permit requests to construct three advertising signs. The board approved one of those requests, to place a sign at the intersection of Va. 641 and U.S. 522. Requests for permission to place signs at Massies Comers and on its site near Flint Hill were denied.
Trinca was issued a permit to establish an antique shop on Main Street in Sperryville, and Gallagher’s request to convert a workshop into a single family dwelling was approved.

The criminal charges were brought by the Rappahannock Humane Society Oct. 4. An Oct. 29 court date has been set.
According to the warrant, three veterinarians examined the horse, allegedly suffering from a dislocation of the fetlock, arthritis and from massive bone deterioration as a result of the dislocation. Two of those vets recommended that the horse be put down.
