so. Bob Lander, President of the Rappahannock League for Environmental Protection (RLEP). responded to that challenge and offered to poll his organization’s Board to see if they would agree to provide some of the money.

Mr. Lee then forwarded a motion to provide $2500 for lobbying in support of the sludge ban bill if matching funds could be raised from RLEP or other organizations, and the motion carried. Mr. Lander later reported that the RLEP Board of Directors had agreed to provide the $2500.

Schools’ report

In his monthly report to the Board of Supervisors, Schools Superintendent Dr. David Gangel discussed the status of the George Washington Carver/Piedmont Technical Center in Culpeper. He noted that the Boards of Supervisors of all four of the jurisdictions (Rappahannock, Culpeper, Madison and Orange) involved and the center’s Board have agreed to declare its facilities as surplus, and that title to the facilities should be transferred, in equal parts, to those jurisdictions before the end of June of this year.

He also suggested that the Board of Supervisors agree to allocate funds to continue to pay the individual responsible for the facility’s maintenance after July of 2002, at a cost of $38,600, as well as other maintenance-related expenses-all of which costs will be shared by the four jurisdictions.

The Board discussed these expenses and the ultimate disposition of the property which had recently been appraised at $405,000, according to Dr. Gangel. Mr. McCarthy characterized the facility as a white elephant and suggested it be disposed of as quickly as possible. The Board moved to authorize him and Dr. Gangel to act on the Board’s behalf in matters pertaining to the maintenance and disposal of the center’s facilities.
