On Tuesday, Nov. 2, the voters
of Rappahannock County will have the unique opportunity to elect Meredith Gorfein of Washington, a friefld and neighbor, to represent'tis as our Delegate in the General Assembly in Richmond. Now, more than ever before, it is vitally important that we have a Delegate that knows our concerns and fears as our community enters the 21st Century and the world changes around us. ' Already three of our surrounding counties are classified as suburban by the U.S. Census Bureau and we must be ready for the demands that this development will make on our county.
One pf the most immediate demands that the General Assembly will face is finding enough money to take care of the Commonwealth’s transportation needs. While various plans have been put forward to address this problem, none of them come close to proposing enough money to keep up with all tlje demands an ever incrg&sing population will makeron our highway system.
It’s a sad, but unavoidable, fact of life that any trariTftortation construction will be very expensive and hard choices will have to be made.
