If Rappahannock enters into an agreement to participate in a regional landfill the new cell would not be opened, Mr. McCarthy said, but the county is still proceeding with engineering plans for it. Col. Bingham said the county should proceed to get a permit from the state for the cell because it would be able to use that permit as a “bargaining chip” in negotiating on the regional landfill.
The supervisors met in executive session with representatives from four engineering firms bidding to apply for permits and design the cell to be opened after January, 1994. They have not accepted any of the bids yet.
They agreed to meet again at 7 p.m. Thursday March 19 to consider bids for construction work on the landfill cell to be used from this fall until January 1994, bids for the mapping for the E-911 system, bids for engineering work on the new cell and bids from insurance consultants.
The supervisors agreed to make a request at the primary road hearing in Culpeper March 31 to have the four-laning of U.S. 522-211 extended to the Sperryville Exxon station with a separate left turn lane for cars going south on U.S. 522 or Route 231. They took no action on the proposed Sperryville by-pass.
Mr. Estes said his constituents were evenly divided between those who favor the by-pass and those who oppose it. He said he estimated the entension of the four-laning would be 300 to 400 yards. “That would be a nice way to end the four-lane,” he said. “It would be less dangerous and more useable to the people in that area.”
The supervisors discussed what to do if Fauquier County and Warrenton decide to move from Planning District 9 to Planning District 8, which includes most of the counties in Northern Virginia. Mr. McCarthy suggested Rappahannock and the rest of the counties in PD-9 should consider also going to PD-8.
Col. Bingham opposed the idea. “I can’t see one advantage of going with Planning District 8,” he said. The supervisors agreed to ask E.P. Luke, Rappahannock’s citizen representative to PD-9 to come to the April meeting and discuss the situation.
In other action the Board of Supervisors:
• Agreed to allocate money so Sheriff John Henry Woodward can order two new cars for the department. They also learned that the kitchen at the jail is preparing meals for about $1.50 per meal, as cqmpafced to $3 per meal that the county wasNmying when the meals were prepared by the Hampton Inn.
• Approved a special exception for Sally Nash to construct a building to house a “Workspace for Choreographers” on her property near Sperryville. They followed the restrictions recommended by the Planning Commission for the use of the property.
