I “It’s the second best in my time | here, in terms of the number of deer 1 checked.” f Mr. Bankston noted that there seemed to be fewer hunters in the woods on Monday and Tuesday, the first two days of big game season and traditionally the heaviest hunting days. “More were successful,” he added. “Nobody is complaining about not seeing game. ” “The deer are all healthy and in good shape,” the veteran enforcement agent said, adding that the last several winters have been mild and the herd has apparently been getting plenty to eat. The average weight for a spike buck is running about 120 pounds, he said. Several county residents checked large bucks, including an 11-pointer killed by Frank Huff Jr. outside Flint Hill, and a 13-pointer checked by Charles W. Sisk at W and J Grocery outside Sperryville. Sheriff J. H. Woodward said that so far there have not been too many problems. He said only two violations were reported to the Sheriffs Department on opening day. Both Sheriff Woodward and Warden Bankston urged hunters to be careful in the woods. “Wear blaze orange, and always be sure of your target before you shoot,” Mr. Bankston advised. “And of course, obey the game laws.” Violations of game laws should be reported to the Rappahannock County Sheriffs Department.

Mr. Huff bagged an 11-point buck and Mr. Krause brought down this nine-pointer in the same area outside Flint Hill. Monday dawned clear and cool, a far cry from last year’s cold and wet first day. At 11th hour, board drops ‘by-right’ migrant housing from ordinance By DAPHNE HUTCHINSON Rappahannock News Staff Writer When Rappahannock’s new zoning ordinance is adopted in December — as intended by the Board of Supervisors - it will be without a provision for migrant worker housing as an accessory use allowed by right. Until last Wednesday night’s work session, the final for the proposed ordinance, a farmer or orchardist would have been permitted a migrant camp on agriculturally zoned land for five months of the year, provided the laborers were employed by the farm or orchard operator. The deletion came in response to a last minute lobbying effort from Meredith and Henry Gorfein, next-door neighbors to a migrant labor camp who have been embroiled in a controversy over its expansion and the permit conditions attached to its operation. In addition, Piedmont District representative Charles Estes convinced his fellow supervisors to allow farm labor camps by special use permit only on land zoned agricultural or conservation and to limit the housing use to nine months duration. Initially, the proposed ordinance would have given the Board of Zoning Appeals authority to issue a permit for migrant housing in any zoning district; in addition, use of the housing would have been restricted to farm workers but not to a specific time limit. Supervisor Newbill Miller argued against a nine months limita tion or a restriction to “seasonal” workers. “I don’t think it’s in tune with the agricultural needs of the county right now . . . The orchard business and the grape growing business require year round labor,” he maintained. ‘’Rappahannock will be better off if agriculture is a viable industry ... We have the good soils and climate for growing apples. The missing ingredient has been the labor. Now, with migrant workers, it’s available again.” He also sought to have farm labor camps permitted in more than just agricultural and conservation zoning districts, particularly in industrial zones. “There is some land zoned industrial that’s orchard oriented.” Nelson Lane posed the possibility of permitting migrant housing only on land owned by the operator of the agricultural enterprise using the laborers. “There’s something to be said for having a labor camp on the same lot as the person responsible for its existence.” “That may be too restrictive, based on the apple business today,” countered Mr. Miller, pointing out that an apple grower may own just five acres but manage a number of leased orchards. If where the workers are employed is to be a factor, then farm labor camps should at least be allowed on land owned OR rented by the person applying for the camp permit, he added. Mr. Miller also noted that use of migrant labor isn’t restricted to or chardists; that migrants might also be employed by grape and endive growers. “I know Mexican labor was used this year in the endive business in Rappahannock County,” he said, referring to Rappahannock Fruit and Produce’s operation which begins the endive season with roots cultivated in rented fields and finishes growing the delicate lettuce hydroponically in the old co-op building in Sperryville. Chairman Hubert Gilkey said he saw “no problem” in striking both the reference to “seasonal” and the nine months limitation on farm labor camps. Mr. Estes objected, however. “We’ll be saying move in, bring your children, we’re going to educate your kids, you’re a permanent resident ... I don’t agree with that . . . You’re going to encourage a whole lot of growth you’re not going to like years down the road.” Without being able to house migrant workers in the winter months, “how is the orchardist going to find labor to prune?” asked Mr. Miller. Picking season ends in mid-November; migrants can “prune an orchard in 30 days” and still be within the nine months limit, Mr. Estes countered. “They can do their work and then go south! ... I couldn’t speak for carrying those people for 12 months. Believe me, I spent 10 years going around labor camps and they’re not- something you want as a year round thing.” Orchardists could use migrants from March through December, Mr. Estes said. “You’re not going to prune from January through mid-March ... A man’s not going to stay up in a tree with the cold wind blowing. . . The little good we do the grower (by allowing farm labor camps year round) isn’t worth -the price the county is going to:have to pay for it.” “Take ‘seasonal’ off and he becomes a permanent resident,” agreed Mr. Lane. Besides, Mr. Estes continued, no new orchards are going to be successful in Rappahannock County. “The deer are going to eat the new trees as fast as they’re set out,” he maintained, adding that there are few growers determined enough to stand guard over the seedlings with a gun to ward off the destructive ruminants. “I’m not willing to give up on growing fruit as a viable industry in Rappahannock County,” Mr. Miller responded. “And if you’re talking about deer damage, you’re not just talking about apple trees - you’re talking about Christmas tree farming and reforestation work... I hate to see us write off orcharding in this county ... If orchards are going to be a viable industry, some of those people you’re calling migrants will have to stay here year round. They are already.” During the three months that growers spray fruit trees, workers can’t go in the orchards anyway, Mr. Estes contended. “So nine months is sufficient ... I’m going to have to hold the line on this!” Mr. Miller conceded. Then the Gorfeins took up the attack on the “by-right” allowance of farm labor camps as an accessory ag(Continued on Page 18) Activists seek help for ‘Piedmont Reserve’ concept By DAPHNE HUTCHINSON Rappahannock New* Staff Writer “We’re being treed by chihauhaus . . . We can’t fight every gas station and drug store,” said Charles Whitehouse, chairman of the board for the Piedmont Environmental Council. To escape the nipping and yapping directed at efforts to preserve open space, farm and forest land and other environmentally sensitive areas, the regional conservation organization has created the concept of a Piedmont reserve, Mr. Whitehouse said Friday in Charlottesville during a conference, “Regional Cooperation for Rural Resource Conservation,” sponsored by PEC and the University of Virginia’s School of Architecture. At present, the reserve of permanently protected resources is just a concept, “a vision,” as the director of the Lord Fairfax Planning District put it. But last week’s gathering of government officials and citizen activists to hear innovative conservation strategies that have worked elsewhere was a step toward making it a reality. “From this conference, we want to see the controls people have been able to impose in other areas,” Mr. Whitehouse noted. The reserve would be a coordinated effort by the state and nine Piedmont counties, he said. It would be a rural conservation area that might encompass 9 million acres. “We’re partly there,” Mr. Whitehouse noted, reporting that 300,000 acres already have some degree of protection through conservation easements (Continued on Page 18) Protection urged for ‘common wealth’ r armiana, open space, iorests, wetlands and mountains — Virginia’s “common wealth” — must be “protected for longer than a zoning ordinance can be defended, for longer than the eight years of an agricultural and forestal district,” Robert Dennis, president of the Piedmont Environmental Council, told an audience of government officials and citizen activists at a conference in Charlottesville Friday. How that permanent protection can be achieved was the focus of the session, sponsored jointly by the Warrenton-based environmental group and the University of Virginia’s architectural department. Permanent protection of fragile resources isn’t a fantasy; it’s an achievable, realistic goal, according to the conference speakers. It’s a goal being reached elsewhere through the combined efforts of local government, state government, conservation and preservation organiza tions and dedicated individuals. The most heartening success story of permanently protected resources comes from Nantucket, an island of 50 square miles and a population of 6,000, located 22 miles off the coast of Massachusetts. “Americans are great planners when it comes to their financial lives and their businesses,” but that talent disappears when it comes to land use, noted William Klein, director of the island’s planning and economic development commission. “How do you get people to plan for a crisis that isn’t quite here yet?” Nantucket is no different from Virginia, Mr. Klein said. “We’re very conservative. There’s a strong feeling of home rule, a strong feeling of ‘How dare you tell me what I can do with my property!’ ” So how did these islanders get so much further than Virginians in (Continued on Page 18) Town enacts ordinance to guard water supply By LOU HATTER Rappahannock N*w» Staff Writer “We are now confronted with a landfill operated by private parties which could threaten our water supply,” said Councilman William Wickens, prefacing his introduction of an ordinance to protect the water supply of the Town of Washington. However, Mr. Wickens noted, “this ordinance was drafted two years ago - before we ever heard of the landfill.” “This ordinance is not retaliation by the town toward the (proposed) landfill,” Mayor Dean Morehouse agreed. “It is just prudent and responsible management of a precious asset: our water.” Following a sparsely attended public hearing, council adopted the water protection ordinance unanimously. The ordinance empowers the Town of Washington to review and grant approval for plans for the construction and operation of any waste disposal facility within a three-mile radius of the town limits. Such power was granted by the state in Section 15.1-292 of the Code of Virginia, which states in part, “Such governing body (county, city or town) may also prevent the pollution of water and ipjury to waterworks for which purpose their jurisdiction shall extend to five miles about the same...” First of its kind Frank Reynolds, attorney for the town, said that “as far as I know,” Washington is the first local government to apply the enabling legislation contained in the state law as it relateatp.PTAfc « tection of water supplies. In answer to a request by the Board of Supervisors for an opinion as to the legality of such an ordinance, Assistant Attorney General Gregory J. Haley replied that his “informal view on the subject” was that such an ordinance would indeed be legal. “Any ordinance... however,” he added, “must be reasonably directed toward the statutorily authorized goal of protecting the town’s water supply.” A second question, directed to the Attorney General’s office by Clerk Diane Bruce at the direction of the board, was whether the county would be bound by such an ordinance. In reply, Mr. Haley said, “. . . a locality’s zoning regulations apply to facilities of other governmental bodies of equal or lesser authority absent a specific exemption . . . were the county to construct a building in the town, it would have to comply with the town’s zoning ordinance ... It is my judgement. . . that the county would be subject to the water protection ordinance.” Patricia Saltonstall, a resident of Flint Hill, attended the hearing and raised several questions with the council. “I’m concerned about new regulations being drafted here which will affect county residents ... If anyone wants to put in a septic system within three miles of town, they have to apply for approval?” “The ordinance exempts single family houses on parcels of five acres or more,” Mr. Wickens replied. “If they want 30 houses on 10 acres, they’ve got to come to council.” “Single families are not the problem,” he continued. “High concentrations, high toxicity are the problems we are worried about . . . Enormous liability could be attached to the operator of a landfill - if something goes wrong. They are literally betting the farm without some sort of guarantee from the county on their lack of culpability. It is an unspeakable risk.” “I’m concerned about the town monitoring building within a three-mile radius,” Ms. Saltonstall repeated. “Can it be done? Can it be enforced? Has it been tested?” “Case law gives numerous authority of a town to exercise its power outside its boundaries. Some are contained in the informal letter (from Mr. Haley) ad dressed to this specific ordinance.” Ms. Saltonstall posed another question: “How about underground storage tanks for fuel, oil, or chemicals. Does the ordinance regulate them? That would be very difficult to enforce. I have an overall concern about monitoring.” She added that several wells in Culpeper County have been polluted by chemical seeping from corroded underground storage tanks. They are common on farms, she said. “If we pass the ordinance,” Mr. Wickens replied, “we’ll do our best - that’s more than is being done now. It would be preferable for the county to enact such an ordinance - but they aren’t - so we will act.” Mayor Morehouse said, “The ordinance is intended to protect a densely populated area. The water situation in town - there is a high toxicity in private wells due to lack of management in the past. .. We have a small budget, less than $15,000 a year. We can’t go sinking a 600-foot well - or truck in water from West Virginia - if our aquifer gets contaminated.” New regulations pending “It would make a ghost town of Little Washington,” the mayor added. Mr. Morehouse pointed out that the federal Environmental Protection Agency has drafted, and Congress has passed, stringent new regulations which ap- ply ta “Schetbde, X)” ..sanitary landfills, which will become effective March 1, 1988. “No landfills will be exempted, and there is no grandfather clause.” Every landfill being operated as of that date must either come into compliance with the new regulations or shut down, the mayor said. “The Schedule D regulations were amended in 1983 and ’84,” he said, “because no one realized the extent of the pollution from those landfills. A main concern of the new regulations is groundwater contamination. gi - “We have a potential multimillion dollar situation here. If the landfill is approved under the present regulations, then the new regulations take effect - it will be extremely expensive to bring it into compliance. ” “Here we have a timing problem,” he continued. “The landfill will be needed before the new regulations are sent to the states ... A private group has applied - here is the application. It is disheartening to say that the state, in its infinite wisdom, before the first public hearing - the state had given preliminary approval to the Lee site.” “We have asked the county several times to let us know what they are doing, and they haven’t,” Mr. Morehouse said. “They claim to! be: behind the eight-ball, but they have placed themselves there.” “Siting is the most important consideration in a landfill. We hope that they are as concerned about the health and welfare of the citizens of this county as we are. We want to be participants in the siting,” the mayor explained, “because if the water is contaminated, we are the ones with the public responsibility to provide clean water to the citizens of the town. The liability, at that point, is on us.” “And,” Mr. Morehouse vowed, ‘If that aquifer becomes contaminated, I’ll shut the well down. We won’t pump contaminated water.” Underground cavern tapped Figures compiled by Brad Fisher, who oversees the town’s water system, and cited by the mayor, place the proposed landfill site one and a half miles - 8000 feet - from the town’s well, and elevated 200 feet above the well site.

Trinity Church dedicates new parish hall By LOU HATTER Rappahannock News Staff Writer The long and storied history of Bromfield Parish began a new chapter Sunday with the dedication of Bromfield Hall at Trinity Episcopal Church in Washington. The hall, which is an expansion of Stuart Hall, the original parish hall built in 1956, includes a meeting room upstairs and church offices downstairs. According to Mrs. Cathy Knuepfer, more than half the money for both the original parish hall and the Bromfield expansion was raised by the dried flower sales which the women of the church have held each year since 1956. Bromfield Parish was established by an Act of the Assembly in 1752, when it was separated from St. Mark’s Parish, centered in what is now the town of Culpeper (known then as Fairfax Courthouse). It included the area that later became Madison, Rappahannock, and a small part of Culpeper County. That huge area was served by three churches: St. Paul’s in Woodville, Piedmont in Madison, and South Church in Wolftown, on the Rapid Anne (Rapidan) River, also in Madison County. Since what is now the Episcopal Church of the United States had its roots in the Anglican Church of England, the church went through a difficult period during the time of the Revolutionary War and the years following. The clergymen appointed by the Church of England served as the first organized government in outlying territories such as Rappahannock, and they were often the targets of the wrath of discontented colonists. In addition to the anger generated by the clergy’s symbolic representation of the King, taxes were also paid to the Anglican Church - regardless of whether or not the taxpayer belonged to the church. There were many Baptists and Protestants in the Piedmont, and their displeasure at paying taxes to a religion to which they did not subscribe was great. Although Massachusetts became ' famous for the Boston Tea Party, symbolizing the colonists’ opposition to “Taxation without Representation,” there was much opposition to the King and his taxes in Virginia as well. Loyalties among the ministers themselves were divided: some disobeyed the church and sided with * the colonists, others supported the Crown and eventually fled the colonies and returned to England. Following the Revolution, the Anglican Church nearly disappeared in the United States, due largely to its historic ties with the English Crown and the colonists’ bitter memories of their long fight for independence. In fact, the settlers’ hatred was so intense that, during the War of 1812, a church located in Slate Mills was torn down by angry farmers. The church was never rebuilt, and a historic marker at the site is the only testimony to its existence. In the mid-1800s the rector of Bromfield Parish was the Rev. William F. Leavell, who wrote in his diary on Dec. 22, 1853: “The extremes of my parish being 40 miles apart and each about 20 miles from my home . . . many times the weather was inclement and so cold indeed as to freeze my buffalo overshoes to my stirrups. But through all weathers I went to minister the services of the Church to poor congregations.” In addition to the three churches, “chapels of ease” had also been constructed in several places, located more conveniently to settlers in the remote regions of the parish. One such structure was built in the 1700s at what is now Aubrey Keyser’s farm in Tiger Valley outside Wash mgton. By 1850 the need for another church to serve the growing settlement of Washington was recognized. Plans were drawn up and James Powers, a builder living in town, was hired for the construction. Mr. Powers had assisted Thomas Jefferson with his work at the University of Virginia. A formal ceremony to lay the cornerstone of the new building was held on May 30, 1857. The Masonic Lodge of Washington was convened to conduct the ceremony in its ancient tradition. A copper box, precursor to a contemporary time capsule, was put inside the cornerstone. According to Masonic records, the box contained the following items: A Book of Common Prayer, the Journal of the 61st Annual Convention of the Protestant Episcopal Church of Virginia, The Episcopal Recorder, The Masonic Mirror, Dew Drops, by J. E. Dow, five-cent pieces contributed by William R. Nokes, Marcus Manuel, Spencer Riley, Wellington Dear, Johnny Lamerson and Master Willie Lane. Miss Helen Lane contributed a tencent piece, the Masonic Lodge donated 50, 25, ten and five-cent coins, and “Brother Philjips, in the name of the Grand Orient of France, added one gold dollar.” The Assistant Bishop of Virginia, Rt. Rev. John Johns, made his annual visitation to Bromfield Parish in the fall of 1857. In his record he observed: “They have built a very neat 'W Rappahannock News photos/Cindy Mahan BROMFIELD HALL is dedicated to the women of Bromfield Parish at a ceremony Sunday at Trinity Episcopal Church in Washington.

Following the death of his wife, the Rev. Mr. Leavell left Brumfield Parish in 1859. He summed up his work in the parish in his diary: “Looking back on my ministerial work in Madison and Rappahannock Counties, I regard it as the most laborious and painful of a long life of toil and hardship. Yet I can say that I never knew a more loving and kind people to their pastor.” The congregation at Trinity originally numbered only seven, but by 1871, of a total of 53 in Bromfield Parish, 25 communicants were members of Trinity’s fold. Among the names were many of the first families of Rappahannock: Lane, Jett, Green, Willis, Menefee, Browning, Powers, Barksdale, Jones, Henry, Spindle, Moffett, J. T. Fletcher and Hamilton Fletcher. Later in that decade the parish was decimated by the loss of members who left the area, as well as some who withdrew from the parish to join the Reformed Episcopal Church, then being formed in Washington, D. C. A Dr. Slaughter observed that “These churches (of the parish) have been so depleted by em(Continued on Page 14) George B. Baggarly t/a PROCTOR-BIGGS FEED MILL 500 E.

Norman has been playing professionally since the age of 16, when he quit school in Rising Fawn, Ga., to play mandolin in a band. In 1969 he moved to Nashville to play guitar and dobro as a member of Johnny Cash’s group. Since then he’s played with Kris Kristofferson, Joan Baez, John Hartford and the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band. On his own now, he’s recorded nine albums, and now has a contract with Rounder Records, re portedly the largest deal ever made by an independent label. Nancy began her musical career in Independence, Mo., beginning the study of the cello at the age of 12. A move to Nashville after high school led her to discover that “other” Nashville music. Norman introduced her to fiddle music and Nancy learned the cello part in true country fashion - by ear. Sponsored by RAAC (Rappahannock Association for the Arts and the Community), tickets will be available at the door. Singing begins at 8 p.m. For further information call 675-3193.

V-——-' THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 20.1986 Editorial The right approach : The Washington Town Council passed an ordinance Resigned to protect its water supply last week, and its approach may contain a lesson. , County officials charged with the responsibility of dealing with the county’s trash disposal problem may perceive the ordinance as an onerous regulation passed to thwart any attempt to locate a waste disposal facility near the town. Members of council Would argue, however, that the intent is only to prevent the operation of improperly designed or constructed facilities within a radius of three miles. Thus, the ordinance would protect the town’s water supply, which pomes from a well to the north of the town limits, in Harris Hollow. ♦ Their concern about the town’s water supply is understandable. Once a water source becomes contaminated, 5t takes years, at least, for nature to flush away the pollutants. Some experts argue that contaminated supplies Way never be fit for human use again. \ Legally, pollution of a public water supply is a liability nightmare. The sums of money which could potentially be awarded to plaintiffs runs into the millions of dollars -- and ^neither the town, nor the county, is in a position to cover those costs. Landfill defenders will argue that technology is the Answer — that government regulatioftSIKfrd monitoring will Sprevent any prol s, or assure that tliey are discovered in jime to prevent a d. aster ' i A case study, detailed in Sunday’s Washington Post, Vnay be enlightening. First, it should be noted that the Example, the Stringfellow Acid Pits, near Los Angeles, is a Schedule C hazardous waste facility, not a Schedule D sanitary landfill. But the same mistakes could occur at any landfill. J The dump site was opened in 1956 and used for 13 years, ^t was chosen because at the time it was thought that the rock Underlying the site was impermeable. Later, it turned out, the rock was fractured, allowing liquids to leach from the jlump into the groundwater. * After the leaching was discovered, attempts were made to control it. A clay cap was built over the 17-acre dump. It jgroded and leaked, allowing still more rain to seep through the deposited residues and into the groundwater. Holes were grilled to a depth below the pits, and gel was injected to seal |he fractures in the bedrock. Pressure from above from the Additional rainwater forced the leachate through the cracks pnyway. 3 Much of the contaminated soil and toxic liquids were jiauled from the site to another, newer and presumably more pecure disposal facility about 40 miles away. Now, it too is leaking. j So far, experts have traced the 300 foot-wide flow of Contaminated groundwater 8,000 feet away from the site — houghly a mile and a half. No one is predicting how much farther it will go. Four hundred families in the town of Glen Avon, near the dump site, have been using bottled water, provided by the state, for two and a half years, since their Jvells showed twice the allowable levels of radiation. 1 “It can’t happen here,” you say. “Those were toxic jiquids, and besides, the technology has improved.” j True, as was stated before, the Stringfellow facility was Resigned for hazardous wastes. And, in the thirty years since |t was opened, there is no doubt that the technology of waste disposal has advanced considerably. * But, there must still be problems. If not, why has the EPA mandated stringent new regulations to control sanitary andfills? Groundwater contamination is said to be one of the :oncems which motivated the new restrictions. So far, the EPA Superfund has spent $34 million on the ! Stringfellow clean-up, with the total needed to complete the , ob estimated to be at least 10 times that amount. Technology las not solved that problem - remember, the second dump site is leaking as well. } The lesson is simple. I Caution is the only word to use in planning for waste disposal. Nobody wants a dump in their backyard. But if there must be one, the officials responsible for its siting have | responsibility to the residents of the county to make sure — to the best of their abilities - that there is no danger to the public. j Nothing can be absolutely certain. But caution and prudence, as exhibited by Washington’s water protection ordinance, can go a long way toward recognizing potential problems, planning for them, and thus preventing them from happening at all. Rappahannock Heritage Rappahannock News photo/Lou Hatter CRYSTAL-CLEAR FALL SKIES produce a spectacular scene as the sun sinks behind the Blue Ridge Mountains, looking west from Rt. 211 at Massie’s Comer. V_;J Letters to the editor A graduate speaks To the editor: For years, Rappahannock County has been debating on whether it is justified in improving and expanding the high school. During those years of debating, conditions have worsened. As a graduate of Rappahannock and a college stu, dent, I feel I must speak out at last. Before graduating, I had nothing to compare RCHS with. Other high schools were bigger, but as far as academics were concerned, I knew nothing about how RCHS compared with other schools. Meeting other students has opened my eyes. Mr. Robert Eastham’s letter of October 30 stated that it was “more important to take a course than just to be offered it.” If the facilities at Rappahannock were improved, students may not only take offered courses more often but be interested in them enough to pass them with higher grades. The teachers at Rappahannock make the lectures interesting but including hands-on experience may result in a higher enrollment in the offered subjects. Hands-on experience would also aid in understanding the course material. In my biology lab at the College of Charleston, I am amazed by what the other students did in high school. Not only was the ceremonial pig dissected at their schools, but many other animals were used for study. They have much more knowledge of anatomy than I do, and it makes a difference. The biology labs were better equipped and were the reason many students chose biology as their major. Most of the students who are at college have taken a chemistry lab where more than just Bunsen burners were used. This is another disadvantage of Rappahannock. The chemistry lab at Rappahannock is a classroom with five or six tables in the back. Experiments have to be set up and taken down at the beginning and end of every class due to the lack of space. The physics classes and chemistry classes have to share everything. This wastes much valuable class time. The cafeteria’s conditions are just as poor. Not only does Rappahannock have a cafeteria for dining, but also a hallway, one classroom, and the parking lot (picnic tables are included). Of course, in the winter, outside dining ceases. This makes the other three available spaces more crowded than usual. Since trays are not allowed outside the cafeteria, most students do not buy lunch in order to avoid the crowds. The gym at RCHS was also mentioned and if Mr. Eastham has ever been to a basketball game, he has noticed the players running into the mats at the end of the court due to lack of space. At many of the games sitting with friends and family becomes a challenge. Graduation was moved from evening to morning due to an inadequate amount of space. The gym was so crowded that the heat became stifling very quickly. I was one graduate who was tom between which relatives would receive my four tickets which allowed them to sit in chairs. After my parents, the decision was difficult. Whoever did not receive a ticket had to get to the high school 30 to 45 minutes early to assure seats - not good seats, just somewhere to sit. I felt sorry for the relatives who were left standing by the bleachers at the last graduation. The locker rooms at Rappahannock have two bathrooms which whole teams have to share. The gym classes, during school hours, are faced with the same problem. The hallway bathrooms have a total of four stalls each. This fcaufces a lot of waiting between classes and late students. The expected increase in enrollment should not be the main deciding factor. The school is obviously too small for the existing students. How many more do we need to meet the quota set in order to begin expansion? The students are suffering because they live in a small county. This should be an advantage. Residents should be willing to pay for a better education for the small number of students they do have. It is said “A little knowledge is a dangerous thing.” On account of a few members of the community’s lack of information, the students of RCHS continue to suffer. KAREN M.

Front Royal. 1 Editorial ‘misleading’ To the editor: We must respond to last week’s editorial “What about Agriculture?” because it is misleading, inaccurate, and irresponsible. We feel it has done a great disservice not only to us but to this county as well. The editorial paints us as against migrant housing. In 1979 when George Sharp built the first migrant labor camp near us, we gave him an electric right of way from our property to the labor camp. In 1984 the second and much larger migrant labor camp was built approximately 475 feet from our property line (not “hundreds of yards from their property line” as the editorial states). The conditions of the Special Use Permit governing that migrant labor camp were those Alex Sharp requested and specified: not more than 10 workers, no longer than the apple picking season. Since 1984 we have had living next to us a year-round labor camp housing as many as 16 men. For us to be construed as against migrant housing (and therefore, by implication, against agriculture) when we finally did speak up seems more than unfair - it seems unfairly biased. But our most serious objection to this editorial comes from its simplistic view that this disagreement over this migrant labor camp signals the beginning of problems between farmers and non-farmers in Rappahannock County. This is irresponsible journalism. Most of the “facts” cited in the editorial are misleading at best. Most are inaccurate. (Alex Sharp does not own “thousands of apple trees” as the editorial leads us to believe; he owns none.) It is no wonder that an incorrect conclusion is drawn from these inaccuracies. Last Wednesday’s five-hour hearing was not the first shot of a battle between farmers and non-farmers; it was one landowner breaking the law and another landowner calling him on it. Finally, in your editorial you held up Loudoun County as an example the Board of Supervisors should follow in formulating our new Zoning Ordinance. You should note that in Loudoun County migrant housing is forbidden in every zoning district except Commercial-1, and there it is allowed only under special exception. We would hope Rappahannock County could be more lenient. HENRY R. and MEREDITH GORFEIN Washington (Ed. note: According to Loudoun Extension Agent Gary Hombaker, that county has only one commercial orchard, Hill High Orchards in Round Hill. This orchard business owns commercially zoned property where the county’s only migrant labor camp is located. “They’re the only user of migrant labor in Loudoun County,” Mr. Hombaker said.)

Day realtor THE “MINGLE” BUYING TREND “Mingling” or collaborative home buying has become a national trend. The U.S. Census Bureau reports that more than 3 million people have purchased first or subsequent home with relatives, friends and even co-workers. The most common reason is economic. A collaborative home purchase can be more cost effective than renting an apartment on an individual basis. Two or more owners can expect to save money on food, maintenance and utility expenses. Also, a group of four people earning $23,000 each would have a combined earning power of one earning $100,000 which makes mortgage qualification easier. In addition, the higher level of income for two or more prospective owners makes the down payment more affordable. Simple arithmetic demonstrates this. The standard down-payment on an average $100,000 home is 20%, or $20,000. For four owners, or two couples, the cost is $3,000 each. If you want to be a homeowner but can’t overcome the down-payment hurdle, think about “mingle buying”.

And then added: "to the exclusion of THE BEST." The pastor was addressing in his prayer an issue and reality that cramps growth. Too often we settle for the "good things of life without realizing that there are "better things" and "best things" in life. The "best things in life" are not necessarily FREE. They must often be purchased at the high cost of discipline and the GAcu,imy ui oumvaieu perception, pius a determined stickability. Talent is a God-gift and free but must be trained if fulfillment is realized. Something so beautiful and free as a sunset must be purchased by the high price of TIME—devoted TIME to allow opportunity for appreciation. But TIME alone cannot produce appreciation of beauty unless one has cultivated a sense of gratitude to Him who is the Source of all BEST things.

Wakefield students tour Philadelphia Wakefield School’s sixth and seventh grade students spent three days in Philadelphia last week, touring historical sites and hiking in Valley Forge National Park. The group left Wakefield on Wednesday afternoon and arrived in Philadelphia late in the evening. They spent the next day at Valley Forge, visiting the Visitors’ Center and hiking eight miles through the park. Of special interest at the Visitors’ Center was the award-winning film about Washington’s winter encampment at Valley Forge entitled The Triumph of Spirit. Later the students visited Washington’s headquarters where he spent the winter of 1777-78, and the Washington Memorial Chapel, one of the finest examples of Gothic architecture in America. Returning from their long, cold hike late in the day, the group spent most of the evening relaxing in the hotel’s heated indoor pool. .All of Friday was spent touring historical Philadelphia. The tour included Independence Hall, the Liberty Bell, Congress Hall, Christ Church, the Betsy Ross House, Elfrith Alley, and the First Quaker Meeting House. After lunch at the Bourse, the students viewed a speWhen Adam delved and Eve span, the Devil was the gentleman. — New England Primer cial exhibit about the writing of the Constitution entitled “Miracle at Philadelphia.” The exhibit included a special film about the complexities of the electoral system created by the Constitution. The last activity of the day was a tour of the Philadelphia Mint in the historical district. For some of the students, the highlight of the trip was an experi ence on the city buses,of Philadel phia: When students stood to offer their seats to elderly passengers, they were showered with praise and gifts by the surprised and pleased senior citizens. On Saturday the group jour neyed home by school bus, passing through historic Brandywine Battle field. w ^ LFCCV CALL 869-1120 for information WINTER REGISTRATION NOV. 24, 25, & 26 ...1-7PM Lord Fairfax Community College P.O.

Rappahannock Journal • Farm • Business • Garden • Rural life Drought continues Seasonal drop in rainfall masks effects By LOU HATTER Rappahannock News Staff Writer The drought of 1986 continues ■vith no end in sight, according to the atest report issued by the Virginia Drought Monitoring Task Force. “Below normal rainfall . . . remains in all regions of the state . . . chances of large amounts of rainfall to push averages to normal or above . . . are not expected,” said the task force report, which includes data through the end of October. Dr. Pat Michaels, the state climatologist, reported that rainfall for the month of October was below normal, but a seasonally low evaporation rate kept the drought situation from becoming significantly worse than it was in September. Thus, Dr. Michaels concluded, “The situation remains one in which individuals and localities are urged to monitor their water supplies carefully.” Dennis Wingfield, who watches the weather from his home in Sperryville, reported that precipitation for the month of October totaled 1.31 inches, a far cry from the average for the month of 2.90 inches. Of that total, more than half fell on the 25th and 26th, when Mr. Wingfield reported a total of 0.69 inch. Thus far in November, the area has fared slightly better, with a total of 2.54 inches of precipitation. Mr. Wingfield noted that the precipitation included “a trace of snow and sleet in Sperryville last Saturday morning - but nothing measurable.” Compared to a total of 2.56 inches for the months of September and October combined, “the total sounds kinda good,” Mr. Wingfield commented. But, he added, “feast or famine” seems to be the rule. Last year he recorded 14.10 inches of precipitation during November. Temperatures in October averaged about one and a half degrees above normal, about the same as those recorded last year. This November produced the coldest temperature recorded by Mr. Wingfield in the last five years, a low of 14 degrees at night and a high of 35 on the 14th. But, he said, there have been lows close to that cold almost every one of the past five years. Compared to last year, temperatures so far this month are running 9.2 degrees colder at night and 8.4 degrees colder during the day. “That’s misleading for an average,” Mr. Wingfield said, because last year November was 7.8 total degrees (night and day averaged together) warmer than November of 1984. So when the figures are compared, last year turns out to be the oddball, he said. The task force reported that groundwater levels in eight monitoring wells throughout the state are below normal, ranging from 11.3 feet off from average in Rockingham County (Western Piedmont) to 5.6 feet below normal in Buckingham County (Eastern Piedmont). In addition, the U. S. Geological Survey reports that the flows in most streams in the state are below normal, including “several of the streams east of the Blue Ridge (which are) at their lowest levels in October since 1964.” The Dan River may (according to preliminary data) have set a new low for the month of October, breaking the old mark set in 1952. Sixteen of the state’s 20 stream monitoring stations report flow levels reduced from last month’s reoprt. Rainfall levels across the state continue to be well below normal. Norfolk reports the largest deficit, with this year’s total accumulation of 20.61 inches representing a shortfall of 18.56 inches. The Northern Virginia area (monitored at Dulles Airport) reports a year-to-date total of 21.85 inches, down 12.24 from the yearly average. The area reporting the least deviation from average, Bristol, in the extreme southwestern part of the state, is still nearly nine inches below the normal accumulation for the year, with its 26.06 inch total representing an 8.67-inch shortage. In the Tidewater region, public water supplies are still in a critical state. The cities of Chesapeake and Newport News have serious problems with increased salinity in their water supply due to salt-water influx. Williamsburg has been forced to put its back-up well into operation and is buying water from Newport News. Fort Monroe’s reservoir is down to a 26-day supply and it is also purchasing water from Newport News. The Palmer Drought Severity Index, which measures general deviations of wet or dry from a normal indexed at zero, is still reporting measurements in the “severe” and “extreme drought” range in all six of the state’s weather divisions. Again, the Western Piedmont indicates the most severe condition, the only one of the six divisions to register in the “extreme” range, with a deviation (Continued on Page 14) u-0mwM-0wwM'0MWM'0M-&wmiwwww-0Wwwmiwwwmw&&M'&fr DiC' ure CHRISTMAS ni5 LTD 2nd Annual Christmas Art ,^Fine Craft Sale Nov. 21 - Jan. 2 Opening Reception Nov. 21,6-9 P.M.

Some scenarios seem to repeat themselves more often than others: an improperly vented chirm ney from a wood stove triggers a wall fire . . . firefighters suspect a portable electric heater placed too close to flammable bedding caused a fatal house fire . . . carbon monoxide from an improperly vented gas heater kills a family in their sleep. Every year at this time, warnings abound about the hazards associated with different types of heat sources. Homeowners and consumers should be well aware of the dangers and the precautions necessary while heating with furnaces, space heaters, wood stoves, kerosene heaters, portable electric heaters, even fireplaces and chimneys. : no accident Still, in 1984 alone, heating equipment caused 192,000 fires. They resulted in more than 700 deaths, 2,600 injuries and property losses of more than $600 million. Much of that suffering could have been prevented if proper precautions had been taken. The U. S. Consumer Product Safety Commission offers the following advice for getting safely through the winter heating season: • Find the owner’s manual for your heating system and read the section on maintenance. It will provide information on periodic inspections and likely problem areas. While the manual is handy, read the entire booklet to refamiliarize yourself with the operation of the system. Keep the manual in a place where you can find it if you need to refer to it during the winter. • Have a heating contractor in SAVINGS BY THE TRAILERLOAD! fcJ*{ ...e TRUCKLOAD SAL Q@' ' ' a* BE KIND TO YOUR FEATHERED FRIENDS AND SAVE MONEY DOING IT!

Make sure that the chimney or flue is also inspected, because most fall checkups do not routinely include this. • Precautions should be taken with wood or coal-burning stoves at the beginning of the heating season. If you purchased a new stove, make sure that the stove, connections to the chimney (stovepipe), and chimney are installed correctly and in compliance with local building codes. Existing chimneys and connectors should be inspected for structural damage, creosote soot buildup and . possible blockage. • If you use a space heater to supplement the main heat source, follow the manufacturer’s instructions for its use. Also, there are basic precautions common to all portable space heaters, regardless of fuel type: never put the heater near drapes, furniture or other flammable materials; to prevent carbon monoxide buildup, keep a window partly open and the room well-ventilated if you are using an un-vented, fuelburning space heater; never operate the heater overnight in a room where people are sleeping. As with the main heating system, familiarity with the owner’s manual is essential. • If the heating system has recently been converted from oil to gas heat, have the chimney inspected. If the furnace was inspected, call the contractor to double-check whether the chimney was inspected as well. • NEVER USE GASOLINE IN A KEROSENE HEATER. Use only K-l grade kerosene. Chimney inspections important The CPSC urges homeowners to have chimneys inspected before use each heating season. Blockages can cause chimney fires or dangerous, even fatal, carbon monoxide buildup. A qualified contractor, chimney sweep or heating service technician should inspect the furnace, flue pipe and chimney for problems. Chimneys are seldom included in routine inspections, but the CPSC advises that it is extremely important to have the chimney inspected for blockages such as loose mortar or bricks, or bird’s nests, which could cause insufficient draft and a resulting buildup of carbon monoxide inside the house. Apart from routine furnace inspections for safety, the CPSC adds that heating systems recently converted from oil to gas can also pose potential carbon monoxide problems. After the conversion, soot on the chimney walls may loosen and fall to the base of the flue. If enough soot falls, the exhaust opening from the combustion chamber of the furnace could become blocked, causing the toxic carbon monoxide fumes to blow back into the house, creating a potentially deadly situation. The CPSC said that new conversions should be inspected now, then routinely at the beginning of each heating season. t The CPSC publishes several booklets with information on safety with a number of heating sources: Coal and Woodbuming Stoves (#92); Electric Space Heaters (#98); Space Heaters (#34); Furnaces (#79); Kerosene Heaters (#97), and smoke detectors. Copies are available by writing CPSC, Washington, D. C. 20207, or by calling the CPSC’s toll-free hotline 1-800-638CPSC.

Flu season here, shots recommended A new strain of influenza has emerged in the Far East, known as Taiwan flu. Recent isolations of influenza in New York, Texas and Hawaii suggest that those cases may be the same strain. Related strains of flu were prevalent before 1947 but have caused fewer outbreaks in recent years in the United States. Anticipating a widespread outbreak of Taiwan flu, the Committee on Immunization Practices, Public Health Service, recommended the production of a new vaccine which will be available in December. This vaccine should be given to high risk persons who received the trivalent flu vaccine this fall. The new vaccine is known as the monovalent Type A Taiwan (HINI). It is also recommended that personnel who provide essential emergency services in the community be immunized with the monovalent vaccme, when available. Groups immunized with the trivalent vaccine in health departments are advised to receive the Taiwan flu vaccine in addition to the regular flu vaccine. Influenza is an acute viral infection of the respiratory tract. ’It is most apt tosoccur during the winter season when respiratory infections are readily transmitted from person to person indoors. However, outbreaks can start at any time. With repeated exposure to influenza healthy individuals (those who have good resistance) build up an immunity. Some degree of protection is acquired even to minor antigenic shifts in the virus which is spreading in the community. However, most people are susceptible to major changes in the strain of the flu virus. Illness from influenza can be extremely severe in persons who have: • chronic respiratory disease such as emphysema or asthma • heart disease and hardening of the arteries • kidney disease • anemia and poor nutrition • drug dependence such as chronic alcoholism • any debilitating condition. Severe illness with complications is also apt to occur in those over the age of 65. Persons who are expected to respond poorly to flu are classified as high risk. Immunization of high risk per sons is recommended each year. Physicians are also immunizing high risk patients against bacterial pneumonia.

MADISON RD., ORANGE * DLR #1644 * 672-3700 ■ w « ---vv Culpeper DAR tours National Arrhiv^s By S.A. BOARD Rappahannock New* Contributing Writer As another project in the celebration of the Bicentennial of the Constitution, 36 members and friends of the Culpeper Minute Men Chapter, National Society, Daughters of the American Revolution, journeyed to Washington recently to tour the National Archives and the DAR Museum. At the Archives (which too few people know aboiit), an hour and a half tour had been arranged. Docents, or guides, explained how all of the important government documents had been brought together in this building from all over Washington. The building was completed in 1937. The Declaration of Independence and the Constitution were installed in the Rotunda in 1952 and the Bill of Rights in 1938. All military records, pension records and other important papers have been microfilmed, and are available for people to look at, study or copy. A movie was shown telling the history of the Archives. An interesting feature of the tour was the circular poster gallery, which shows posters from all of the wars, selling war bonds, information about food rationing in WW II, children’s gardens in WW I, and many other interesting items. The group was told Read ®(je ^appatjannocb ihtog for local news how the most valuable papers are stored in helium filled cases and lowered into a vault and taken out only for very special occasions. A new exhibit called “Creating the Constitution” which is in the Rotunda was described. This explains the problems of operating under the Articles of Confederation - no money standard; no common defense; veterans unhappy because they were not getting pensions; the unsuccessful call for a convention in Annapolis and finally the call to revise the Articles of Confederation which resulted in the writing of the Constitution. Only selected pages of the Constitution are on display but toward the 200th anniversary of the signing (Sept. 17,1987) all of it will be put on display. After lunch in the DAR Headquarters building, the group toured the museum gallery doll and toy collection, the Americana room, and the DAR Library which contains 79,300 books. The Americana room contains materials on genealogy and relevant local history. Thirty period rooms are filled and furnished by various states with period furniture. The Historical Research laboratory has 1350 volumes which answer questions on the Revolutionary era and NSDAR history. These various facilities are open to the public free during business hours, although non-members are charged a fee for use of the DAR Library. School or other groups interested in a tour of the Archives should get in touch with Volunteer and Tour Program, The National Archives and Records Administration, 8th and Pennsylvania Ave. N.W., Washington, D.C. 20403. For DAR tours get in touch with the National Society, Daughters of the American Revolution, 1776 D St. N.W., Washington, D.C. 20006-5392. Among special events at the National Archives in celebration of the Bicentennial of the Constitution will be an 87-hour vigil to honor the Constitution the week of September 17, 1987. New exhibits, a film festival and several new publications are also planned.

Trinity (Continued from Page 12) igration to the south and west and by infrequent and intermittent services that they are hardly able to stand alone and are now like sheep scattered on the mountains without a shepherd.” By 1892 the church’s membership had partially recovered, with 46 communicants, and the expenses over a nine-month period of that year had soared to $194.93. In that year, also, the records of the Diocese of Virginia show that a Sunday School was in existence, with 25 “scholars” and four teachers. Sometime around the turn of the century, Emmanuel Church was constructed in Sperryville, becoming the third Episcopal congregation in the county. By 1906, the Diocesan Journal reported that “the churches in Rappahannock County have become self-supporting.” The situation, however commendable, did not last long and Trinity Church did not again become self-sufficient until 1955. Early in this century, suggestions were made that the church be renovated. The original building was all wood, and had neither a bell nor a tower. It was proposed that the renovations include a bell tower, which would also serve as a vestibule and an entrance to the sanctuary. The idea did not meet with universal acceptance. One member of the congregation declared that if the front door of the church were moved she would renounce her membership. Another resident of the town (who was not a member of any church) declared that if the tower •were not built, he would leave the church. Bob Eastham, the carpenter hired to do the renovation, broke the stalemate, saying, “I’ll build the tower because she’s saved and he isn’t.” The tower stands today as testimony to his logic. The question remains whether the concerned resident ever was saved. During the renovation the origi nal “stained glass,” actually clear glass covered with colored paper, was replaced by leaded stained glass windows given by members of the congregation in memory of some of the parish’s first communicants. It was also about this time that the Rectory, a brick house on Mt. Salem Avenue, was constructed on land donated by D. D. Miller. In 1929, a tornado w'hich swept through the town of Woodville destroyed St. Paul’s Church. The members of the congregation joined Trinity in Washington and Emmanuel in Sperryville. St. Paul’s Church was never rebuilt, and today St. Paul’s Episcopal Cemetery stands on the spot where the church was located. In 1945, the church began a fund to construct a parish house. After 10 years, the project became a reality w'hen Mrs. Margaret Mason, a member of the congregation of St. Paul’s in Woodville, left the church $20,000, which wras put toward the parish hall project. Stuart Hall was constructed during 1956 and 1957. It was also during the 1940s that the congregations in Madison County left Bromfield Parish, leaving the parish with just Emmanuel and Trinity Churches. In 1955 the congregation of Emmanuel Church voted to join the Trinity Church. The Bromfield expansion of the parish hall, for which ground was broken at Easter 1985, is the newest addition to the church. Formal dedication of Bromfield Hall, which was named by and dedicated to the women of Bromfield Parish, was held on Sunday. The Right Reverend Peter James Lee, Bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Virginia, officiated at the ceremony. The present rector of Trinity Church, the Rev. Jennings Hobson III, has been ministering to the congregation for 13 years. Of the Bromfield addition, and of Trinity Church as a whole, he said, “We are gently growing and continuing our ministry.” 85 ESCORT 16,000 Miles $3695 82 FIREBIRD SE1 AUTO-A/C-P.W.

OPEN SATURDAY Moncmos 361-7162 Drought (Continued from Page 3) from normal of -4.26. The Southwestern Mountain region is the least affected, with a reading of -2.55, which still registers in the “severe” range. The state composite is -3.67, also in the “severe”range. One bright spot in the task force’s report is the Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services crop report. “The last week of October brought favorable fall weather, ideal for fall planting and harvesting.” Rainfall during the week over most of the state improved soil moisture levels considerably, according to VDACS. Early in October the soil moisture readings had been 92 percent short and only eight percent adequate. The long overdue rains boosted the “adequate” rating to 46 percent, leaving just more than half (54 percent) of the state reporting a shortfall in soil moisture. Crop harvests and winter grain planting were reported to be pretty much on schedule, according to reports received by VDACS. Pastureland was rated “fair” in most of the state, “but ‘poor1 in Northern Virginia.” Livestock was generally said to be in good condition, with market sales continuing. A total of 85 localities in the state has been declared primary drought disaster areas, with an additional nine counties and three cities afforded secondary status. Farmers in all those designated areas are eligible for federal disaster assistance through the U. S. Department of Agriculture. Agriculture-related businesses, such as feed suppliers and farm equipment dealers, are also eligible for special loan assistance through the federal Small Business Administration. Damage assessment reports compiled by VDACS estimate that the total value of crops lost by farmers in the drought-stricken areas will exceed $311 million, or 43 percent of the total value. The task force concludes that “it appears that the end of the 1986 drought is not yet in sight ... It is almost a certainty that the drought conditions will linger through the end of the year.” Hurricane-type storms, which the task force had previously suggested as the only mechanism likely to relieve the drought, become less likely as the hurricane season nears its end. The National Weather Service long-range prediction for rainfall in November is below normal, with the 90-day forecast (November through January) predicting slightly below normal precipitation. The Office of the State Climatologist at the University of Virginia reports a similar prediction. “Therefore,” the report concludes, “the consensus forecast is now for the rest of the year to average slightly below normal in total precipitation.” The task force does not venture a prediction for rainfall in the coming year. It does, however, note that “with the Palmer Index at -3.67 at the end of October with streamflows and reservoirs at low levels makes the next four or five month recharge period a critical period to watch . . . Individuals ... governments and water suppliers should continue to carefully monitor their water supply situations and have contingency plans ready for implementation should the need arise.” A decision to close school will be announced through the stations listed below. An announcement will be made only when schools are closed. No announcement, therefore, means classes will be held as normally scheduled.

Our power of regulation begins with an application.” The ordinance passed by a unanimous vote of the five members of council present: Mayor Morehouse, Mr. Wickens, Mr. Fisher, Nan Thomasson and Peter Skowronski. Council members Evelyn Willis and Dorothy Clater did not attend the meeting. The mayor directed attorney Frank Reynolds to send a letter to the Attorney General’s office requesting a formal opinion on the validity of the ordinance. He was also directed to inform the Board of Supervisors, and Lee Partnerships, of the passage of the town’s water protection ordinance. “Ask them,” the mayor said, “what they plan to do. Is there any guarantee about liability? If something . . . happens out there, who will pick up the tab?” “I want to put the county on notice,” Mr. Morehouse said, “that the state requirements are not good enough. They had better look to the standards coming in ‘88. They will have to comply . . . We need to know what they are doing - they have not communicated with us.” Planning commission at halt “The planning commission has ground to a complete halt,” Mr. Wickens reported. “We have called two meetings, and did not have a quorum show up for either meeting. . . The planning commission mem bers were supposed to be here to night.” “This is an intolerable situation,’ the mayor agreed. “I am asking th« council to request the resignations o any members who do not plan to at tend meetings regularly. I expeci those who do not attend meetings t< please step down and let us get oi with business.” 412,000 miles and sHtt...afloat? r Writer/photographer Karl Kocivar spends much of his time criss-crossing the state of Colorado compiling his popular Pocket Guide to Colorado. On a recent trip to Lake Irwin, near Crested Butte (elevation 10,200 feet), he recorded a splashy moment at the wheel of his remarkable 1966 Peugeot 403. “I drive my 403 over the Continental Divide and throughout Colorado on a regular basis,” Kocivar reports. “It has more than 412,000 miles on it and I can still rely on it.” “This car is a testimony to the rugged durability Peugeot has been building into its cars for decades. As I travel over Colorado’s mountain passes people turn and stare in disbelief as my little French mountain goat goes over the top loaded with skis, camera equipment and smiling faces.” Major repairs over the years? A clutch replacement several years ago, and new pistons at about the 300,000-mile mark. Otherwise, it’s all original. PH Try A 1987 Peugeot Today.. See How Far You Can Go! • • • PEUGEOT Chevrolet—Peugeot 347-9000 The council took no action on Mr. Morehouse’s request. Ms. Kramer’s request approved Joyce Kramer came before the council to request approval for a culvert to run from her property at the west end of Gay Street onto adjoining land to drain stormwater, which is overloading her septic system. The paperwork for the permit, she reminded the council, was filed two years ago and had gotten lost. Now, the state Health Department had informed her that she had less than a week to get the problem fixed. The council approved her request for a culvert to run under Gay Street to carry off stormwater, on condition that she obtain an easement from Newbill Miller, onto whose land the water would drain, and that she pay the costs of restoring the road surface. Ms. Kramer also requested an exemption from the town’s requirement for a parking lot in front of her Gay Street Inn. “All the neighbors agree,” she said, “they would rather see my lawn than a gravel parking lot.” Mr. Morehouse advised her that she would need to submit a written request for an exemption, supported by documentation and agreements from her neighbors. “If they have no objection, I see no problem,” the mayor said. 25 percent water loss Treasurer Brad Fisher reported on the Water Authority’s continuing battle with leakage in the town’s antiquated system. The loss is running at 25 percent, Mr. Fisher reported. The water authority spent $1700 in the last month on maintenance, he said, almost all of which went to repair leaks. Mr. Fisher added that the costs to the town per 3000 gallons of water totals $7.92 ($3.42 for production, $4.50 for maintenance) while the town charges only $6 for the same amount used. “In the past two months, that has added up to a $400 deficit,” he said. “We need to average the costs of production and . maintenance and raise the charge to . at least cover the costs.” “Won’t that mean a drastic in1 crease in community rates?” asked ! Peter Skowronski. “We need to give ■ priority to residential uses if water . gets low, not have Jacuzzis being ; filled i every night.” i “We have the power io limit wate use any time it is necessary,” Mr. Fisher replied. In other business, the council: • Hired Cindy Mahan as its recording secretary, relieving Dorothy Clater of that responsibility. • Took under advisement a request from Zoning Administrator John McCarthy to raise the fees for applications for rezoning and subdivision. Mr. McCarthy had told the council that the $50 fee is not enough to cover the costs. Council requested Mr. Reynolds to meet with Mr. McCarthy and revise the fee schedule to cover costs and legal fees. • Granted Doug Baumgardner’s request to remove the playground equipment from the back of his lot on Main Street. It had once belonged to the town, Mr. Baumgardner advised the council, but said that he would like to use it if the town laid no claim to it. • Served notice that it intends to adopt a four-percent restaurant tax. A public hearing on the proposed tax has not yet been scheduled. 4 4 * U i 4 4 «• 4 A A * 4 -* 4 4 4 * 4 Joffrey II Ballet in W arrenton Fairy tales and the magic of dance will transform Fauquier High School’s auditorium into ballrooms and undersea worlds when the Joffrey II Dancers present their story ballet Tales from Hans Christian Andersen Sunday afternoon, Nov 30.

Farmland (Continued from Page 1) adopting — and using — innovative land use management tools? How did they get a 2 percent tax on land transfers that now raises $80,000 a week to purchase the heaths, moors, shoreline and ponds which their community has commited itself to protecting? First came the threat. Nantucket is an island of incredible beauty and charm, according to Mr. Klein. Its closely knit, dense village centers look much the same as they did in the 1800s, surrounded by the open land of heath, moor and ponds. “It’s a community mothballed by the death of the whaling industry” that remained undiscovered until the 1960s. Then came, an onslaught of second homes: $200 million worth of real estate sold and 300 homes built a year. “It was a community not just on fire but at the point of meltdown,” Mr. Klein said. Then “Yankee common sense” went to work. The island was declared an historic district, only the second of its kind in the nation, with a review board exercising “complete architectural control over the entire 50 miles, even such minute detail as painting the front door a different color,” the planning commissioner noted. Next came private initiative, with the Nantucket Conservation Foundation established in 1965. Using private money, the foundation has amassed fee interest holdings across the island that now total 6,000 acres. “That was put together by the summer people,” Mr. Klein pointed out. But still, development threatened. “The community came to understand that it could no longer rely on the traditional tools of regulatory police power.” Large lot zoning had been tried; “large lot suburban sprawl” was the result with “houses on every knoll, going for the views,” he said. “It became dramatically clear what would happen — all this land would be eaten up in yard space.” Alarmed citizens determined that it would be a $100 million task to buy the fragile heath lands between the villages, Mr. Klein continued. And the money had to be raised by local government; there was no help from the state. “It was time for the public sector to face up to its responsibilities . . . but how were the people to be motivated?” The start came with a conference, “Nantucket in the Year 2002.” Off-island experts were ferried and airlifted over for 15 hours of advice on protecting aquifers, providing affordable housing, planning for trans Reserve (Continued from Page 1) and the Agricultural and Forestal District program. “That’s a significant block . . . half again as big as Shenandoah National Park.” The Piedmont reserve “is not a dreamy sort of idea,” he continued. “It would be a real geographic entity recognized by the state with delineated borders . . . Signs could be posted, announcing ‘You are entering the Piedmont Reserve’.” In explaining the need for this new approach, he maintained that today’s tools for controlling development and protecting resources are “pretty flimsy” to combat increasing growth pressures. Loudoun County’s population is projected to swell by 132 percent by the year 2010; Albemarle’s population will double by 2030; this year, Culpeper’s rate of housing starts is up 269 percent over last year, the PEC board chairman noted. And the state’s “extraordinary drive for increased highway construction” — including the proposed outer beltway through Loudoun, Fauquier and Prince William, the Piedmont thoroughfare to parallel Route 29 and Charlottesville’s outer beltway — will bring even greater pressure to bear, he added. To deal with this, localities can zone for preservation but “what can be zoned can be unzoned . . . Zoning is a short term solution to land use problems,” Mr. Whitehouse said. Agricultural and Forestal Districts commit land to open space, farming and forestry for eight years, but what happens when that time period expires? he asked. “We could have a dandy set of villages all across the land.” PEC supports the granting of conservation easements as a more permanent solution, but until recently, problems with the Internal Revenue Service cast a cloud over the tax benefits of this program, Mr. Whitehouse noted. And the new tax laws which go into effect Jan. 1 will lessen the economic benefits which accrue to a landowner who grants a permanent easement to the Virginia Outdoors Foundation, Mr. Whitehouse acknowledged. To questions, he explained that the reserve would be divided into service districts, in accord with the land use plans of local governments, where growth would be “directed and encouraged.” “Local governments would be asked to identify the areas that they want to keep in rural use” and then a combined state, regional and local effort — involving government and the private sector — “would figure out a way to make that happen,” added PLEASE KEEP IT DOWN. High blood pressure can be controlled, lb learn how. call us. American Red Cross Robert Dennis, PEC’s president. “By and large, we have the powers to do that now,” Mr. Dennis continued. “But the tools that exist could be improved, and maybe we need to look around the country and find new tools.” PEC is currently working with other organizations on amendments to the enabling legislation for Agricultural and Forestal Districts which would permit such districts to be established for longer than eight years, Dennis reported. “Loudoun County is talking about development right leasing. We’d like to see some county try that. Fauquier County is looking at a rural overlay district.” These and other innovative approaches should be explored further, he said. But whether it’s with the Piedmont reserve or some other strategy, Virginia’s “common wealth” must be “protected for longer than a zoning ordinance can be defended, longer than the eight years of an Agricultural and Forestal District,” Mr. Dennis said. “It’s not going to happen tomorrow,” Mr. Whitehouse concluded, “but it’s something we should be working toward.” VCVCVCWCVCVCVWCVCWCVmi y |NUGGETS OF TRUTH % THE LORD’S PRAYER .

Next, a series of 24 public hearings gave the islanders a chance to tell their elected and appointed officials their ideas. Planning commissioners traveled Nantucket’s “rubber chicken circuit,” talking to md listening to Rotary Clubs and chambers of commerce. The proposals that came out of these meetings went through draft after draft after draft before being gathered into a 28-page booklet, Goals and Objectives for Balanced Growth, “a vision, a blueprint for Nantucket 20 years from now,” Mr. Klein explained. A copy was mailed to every postal patron on the island with the question: “Is this what you want the island to be? Come to the town meeting in two weeks and tell us.” The booklet was “short, succinct, easy to understand,” he said. Its theme? “We weren’t saying no growth. We weren’t talking about torpedoing the ferry. We were saying yes, there can be growth . . . but we want to stop it dead at the moors. We want to keep growth around the villages. We were promoting the village concept.” At the town meeting — where the people of every Massachusetts locality decide all questions, from the annual budget to whether “the lifeguards will wear sunshades” — the plan for balanced growth passed unanimously, 450 to 0, Mr. Klein reported. Then came the vote on the means to achieve the balance: a land bank. With only a single voter opposed, the islanders endorsed a 2 percent real estate transfer tax with the money to be controlled by elected land grant commissions and spent to buy the threatened heaths, moors, shoreline and other undeveloped land. Nantucket then petitioned the Massachusetts legislature for the enabling law necessary to establish the land bank and enact the transfer tax. Thanks to the unanimity of the islanders’ support, Mr. Klein said, the legislation was passed that first year. The tax is levied against all real estate purchases. Paid by the purchaser, it is due moments before the deed is recorded. The typical tax pei transfer runs between $2,000 anc $3,000, Mr. Klein said.

The delinquent fee charged against any shortfall in the taxable amount runs 14 percent annually and doubles if deliberate fraud is involved, the planning commissioner reported. The exemptions are limited. “Basically, we put the Band-aid where it hurts,” Mr. Klein said, adding that first-time home buyers get an exemption of $100,000. The revenue raised by the transfer tax goes into a revolving account with interest accruing to the land bank. “We realized a quarter of a million dollars last year from the interest alone, ” he said. The five elected land bank commissioners have sweeping authority: They can buy land, lease land and borrow money. With a two-thirds majority vote from the town meeting, they have the power of eminent domain. To date, they’ve spent $15 million to buy 750 acres, Mr. Klein said, including ocean frontage, pond frontage, heath and moor land, a nine-hole public golf course that is leased to a non-profit organization and a five-acre “pocket park.” The concept of combining “regulatory and compensatory powers” to block development, preserve resources and promote the village concept continues to have public support, he noted. A land bank has been established on Martha’s Vineyard and bills are pending for Cape Cod and the entire state of Massachusetts as enabling legislation. With the new land banks, the legislature is allowing the community to decide what percentage of the transfer tax revenue will be used for conservation and what percentage will go for land on which to build affordable housing, he reported. “That’s a very exciting approach to the notion of balanced growth,” Mr. Klein maintained. “A land bank is no cure-all,” he emphasized, adding that there’s “no real panacea” for urban sprawl and endangered resources. “We need to use a tool box approach. There’s no one tool to do the entire job, but all the. tools working together can get results.” In Virginia, PEC President Dennis reported, a real estate transfer tax would generate about $100 million a year statewide for every cent on the rate. “It’s worth serious study as a conservation tool,” he agreed.

( RAPPAHANNOCK SPOKEN HERE: j ( ROGER BATCHELDER, EARTHMAN » f Gay St, Washington, Va. 22747 Land use (Continued from Page 1) ricultural use. Whether a camp is used for just five months or whether it’s located on land owned by the farm operator, “it still impacts on the neighbors,” argued Henry Gorfein. “It shouldn’t be a ‘by-right’ use; any migrant labor camp should be allowed only with a special use permit.” He told the supervisors that his property is next door to a “farm operator’s” migrant labor camp. “The farm operator has 450 acres (of orchards) leased. We see the potential for having every migrant laborer in Rappahannock County next door to us . . . We don’t think that’s fair. Somehow, you should be able, to keep a handle on this.” Mr. Miller agreed that it would be unfair to limit migrant camps to land owned by the farmer who employs the migrants. “That’s the same point I made.” As to a cap on the number of farm laborers to be housed at a camp, the supervisors maintained that this could be addressed only by the Board of Zoning Appeals in considering specific cases. “We don’t want to set a figure that we just pull out of the air ... I don’t see how we can fairly set a limit,” said Chairman Hubert Gilkey. “Unless you say you can’t be big in the apple industry,” Mr. Miller added. “If a farmer is going to keep on operating, he’s not going to have any more people than necessary,” noted J. R. Latham. “It’s a difficult problem and we have no answers,” interjected Meredith Gorfein. “What makes sense to us sounds hopelessly unfair to the orchardists,” she conceded. But at the least, she told the supervisors, specify that a special use permit is always required for farm labor housing so that it can be “looked at as a case by case thing” but with the intention that the orchardist or the vineyard operator | “gets what he wants, but that somebody knows what’s happening.” “That’s not restrictive - it’s responsible,” said Mr. Lane. “It’s a small handle on what everyone in this room sees COULD be a problem,” Mrs. Gorfein said. “That’s the answer . . . just don’t have anything ‘by-right’ that isn’t reviewed,” Mr. Lane continued. “No problem, no impact - he’s got it (the special use permit for a farm labor camp). But if he’s already got 25 people across from a nice family ...” “Does that satisfy you?” Mr. Estes asked the Gorfeins. “We would think that was fair and equitable,” Mr. Gorfein answered. “That’s what zoning is all about - to protect neighbors from each other,” noted Mr. Lane. By consensus, the board agreed to drop the five month “by-right” migrant camp as an accessory use and retain the “seasonal” description of the workers to be housed in a labor camp, specifically limiting the camp’s use to a maximum of nine months in the year. Then, for the next two hours, the supervisors reviewed the 198-page zoning ordinance seemingly line by line, going over points raised by the BZA. “Pass on,” ‘Next,” the board members directed, after striking a word here and adding a word there. Several changes suggested by the BZA were referred to professional planner Richard McNear for advice. Finally, after a half hour executive session, the board voted unanimously to hire Hurt and Proffitt, Inc., a Lynchburg firm, to conduct hyrdrology and geology studies and preliminary evaluations on any potential landfill sites. In a second unanimous vote, the board hired Leonard Engineering to act as a consultant in finding an out-of-county disposal method for Rappahannock’s solid waste. Be Resourceful. Recycle.
