25 YEARS AGO
August 9, 1984
Robert Dennis, president of the Piedmont Environmental Council, wants "scenic" status for the Upper Rappahannock and Thornton Rivers, the environmentalist told county supervisors Auk 6 State scenic-river status will help protect the rivers by making its more difficult legally to divert or reclassify them, according to Dennis. Scenic status, Dennis said, would force the governor to refer any proposed change in river status to a local board before a decision could be made.
For about four months, Ronald Frazier of Amissville has spent every hour he can muster in the county clerk’s office poring over Rappahannock's proposed zoning ordinance. If he had his way, every property owner in the county would be doing the same “This zoning ordinance could be in place the next 10 years," Frazier says. “I’d like to be involved in the planning of my future.”
