Supervisors meet

Rappahannock County Supervisors are scheduled to hold their regularly monthly meeting Monday, a meeting that appears to be routine but one that could easily develop into anything but ordinary.

On the preliminary agenda are matters of the routine: An update on the county’s continuing attempt to settle on an adequate insurance policy; a report from Wayne Cilimberg, executive director of the Rappahannock-Rapidan Planning District; a citizen’s objection to the proposed site of the animal shelter near the Scrabble School.

Also scheduled is a public hearing to discuss the state highway department proposal, or sixyear plan, for local roads.

However, it is possible Supervisors maybe asked to review the 1985 proposed zoning ordinance which was reviewed in closed session by the Rappahannock Planning Commission. That had not been placed on the agenda as of early this week.

Supervisors meet in the county courthouse, Washington, at 10 a.m.

Election preview

Inside this edition of the Rappahannock News is a 12-page special edition entitled “Election Preview.” Included in the supplement is a look at the 1985 campaign trail and a profile of each of the six candidates contending for statewide offices.

The four-color section, produced by Arundel Newspapers, also includes a brief history of Virginia politics, the election process in the Old Dominion and a listing of polling places.
