We understand that as a County we must look for ways, consistent with its Comprehensive Plan, for landowners to realize value from preservation, rather than sub-dividing their land. Examples include conservation easements, bed-and-breakFast facilities, and niche farming, which others in the County are pursuit successfully.

Five, ten, twenty years from now when residents of Rappahannock County look back to see how successful they were in preserving their scenic and rural vision for the County, this decision will appear as a critical event.

The Board has an historic opportunity, and we would say an obligation, to draw a line in the sand here. Current and future generations will be forever in their debt for holding firm now against commercialization of our county. * — <
