Luke asked the residents to fill out forms that asked in which county they were taxed and voted, and which school their children attended.

Another concern that needed to be cleared up was which sheriff’s office and court would prosecute crimes committed there.

Also attending the meeting were supervisors Roger Welch of Rappahannock’s Wakefield District and Stuart Rudicille of Warren County’s South River District, and commissioners of revenue, Beverly Atkins of Rappahannock and John Smedley, of Warren. Also present was Warren County Attorney Doug Napier. Along property lines

Large Rappahannock County tax maps were displayed showing the present boundary, and at the end of the meeting, Luke drew the proposed changes that meandered along property lines.

Luke and Atkins added that the map was only a tax map and was not accurate in representing the properties.

Smedley will advertise the proposed change in the Northern Virginia Daily. He hoped the boundary adjustment could be settled and become effective for the 2000 tax year. Long-term problem
