POLICY STATEMENT - R EGIONALIZATION,OF LOCAL GOVERNMENT
Upon motion made by Dennis T. Cole and seconded by Richard F. Madigan,
BE IT RESOLVED, That the Board of Supervisors of the County of Frederick does herein
issue the following statement as the official policy of this County on the question of Regio
Government:
POILICY STATEMENT
REFERNECE: Regionalization of Local Government
DATE: October 11, 1972
On September 13, 1972, this Board passed a resolution requesting that the Lord Fairfax
Planning District Commission adopt certain policies in relation to both the administration of
the Commission and also the overall concept of regional government as it seems to be developin
in the Commonwealth. I
This Board has no argument with the need for coordination and cooperation among local
jurisdictions and also the need for basic planning, assistance that can be provided by a joint
professional staff as established under the Commission. As illustrated by the Frederick - Winc
efforts in the jail and landfill operations, and the present negotiations on a joint sewer pla
along with the possible addition of Clarke Countylin the Frederick - Winchester Landfill,ample
proof is provided that local jurisdictions, on the own initiative, can join together to solv
mutual problems. Therefore, it is the basic policy of this Board, and we feel the wishes of th
residents of Frederick County, to oppose this continuing development at the state level of a
policy of regionalization of local government functions through the constant strengthening of
the variousplanning districts (Note speech by Holton - October 3, 1972). It is felt that the
ester
t,
265
Planning District Commision should and must adhere to the policies of its member jurisdictions
on this matter and we urgently ask all members to review this development and its impact on th
ivery nature of local government in Virginia. It is our hope that our neighbors will come to th
(same conclusion that we have reached and join with us in a progressive program to maintain
local government functions.
Therefore, in support of referenced resolution of September 13, 1972, this Board
recommends that the District Commission adopt the following policies and actions:
(1) Recognition of the District Commission as a corporate planning venture directed
by the concensus of total local policies.
(2) Oppose any and all attempts to convert the Planning District Commissions into
"the more powerful, all- encompassing service districts ".
(3) The Commission inform all local representatives to the General Assembly of its
opposition to this continuing development of regional government and request
that they initiate action to stop this growing encroachment on the basic
foundation of this Commonwealth.
In addition to the District Commission, we ask that each local government body join
with us and take the same basic steps as outlined above. The question of the survival of local
government, as we know it today, depends upon the ability of these fundamental units of govern
ment to change and accept the responsibilities of meeting and providing the needs of its citiz
In issuing this statement, it is the basic feeling of this Board that local governmen
cann change and can meet the needs of its people and can cooperate with other jurisdictions
when necessary and so long as this is accomplished, there is no basis for regionalization of
any function of government and the usurpation by the uncontrollable arms of the state of the
basic principles of our democratic system of government.
By recorded vote with Raymond C. Sandy, J. Robert Russell, Dennis T. Cole, Richard F.
Madigan and Donald, R. Dodgson all voting "for" the above resolution was passed unanimously.
LANDFILL - PIPE PURCHASE - APPROVED

at the Landfill and it was now necessary to increase the size of the pipe. Therefore, he
recommended the sale of the present pipe so that new'pipe could be purchased.

equivalent amount of 24 inch reinforced concrete drainage pipe for use at the Landfill.

the total cost, per prisoner day, for the month of July was $1.84 and August`. was $2.24, and
that this cost did not include salaries, only food and general - upkeep expenses of the jail.
Upon motion made by Richard F. Madigan and seconded by Dennis T. Cole,

Mr. Alderman stated that this was a re- hearing on the petition of Jack K. Wampler to
rezone a parcel of land from A -2 to B -2.
Mr. Sandy asked if there was anyone to speak in opposition of this rezoning.
Mr. Blair Webber appeared before the Board, representing a group of residents in the
area, to speak in opposition of this rezoning. He stated that they were no.t in favor of an all
'
night business in the area because of the disturbance it might cause as well a's attracting an
undesirable element of people. He said that these residents felt that this rezoning would hurt
the value of their property some of which was valued at $50,000.00 to $60,000.00. Mr. Webber
said that the residents also objected because of the road hazard which would be created in the
winter because of the water being onto the highway.
Mr. Sandy asked if there was anyone to speak in favor of the rezoning.
Mr. Larrick appeared before the board and gave a brief background on the rezoning
petition. He then presented Mr. Fahnestock who stated that he was a neighbor of Mr. Wampler
and had known him for a number of years and felt that he would operate the business very well.
He stated that he felt the car wash would be an asset to the community. He said that if
Frederick County is to grow, we must have more industry and he felt this would be a desirable
industry to have in the area. He said there were other businesses in the
area and he would not
268
stand in the way of progress. Mr. Fahnestock said he felt this business would pay a tax base of
a good amount and if the county did not allow industry to locate here they would locate else-
where. He stated that Mr. Wampler had met the requirements of the State Water Control Board
and had been approved by the Planning Commission and he asked the Board to-reconsider this
zoning petition.
Mr. Sandy asked Mr. Wampler if it would be necessary to operate the car wash on a 24 hour
basis. I
Mr. Wampler said that he didn't feel that it' have to be operated on a 24 hour basis
but he did not want to say that it would not. He stated, that if it should cause a problem at a
late hour he would close it as he had investments in the area to protect also.'
Mr. Cole said that he had had a few people call him concerning pollution in Hot Run and
he wanted to be assured that there would be no pollution problem. He asked Mr. Wampler if he
had installed tanks and purchased a large tank truck to take care of any excess water.
Mr. Wampler stated that this was correct andlthat the State Water Control Board would
not permit him to pollute any area.
Mr. Sandy stated that the Board realized that the County needs comprehensive zoning plan
and that we would have one in the near future.
'Upon motion made by Dennis T. Cole and seconded by Donald R. Hodgson,
BE IT RESOLVED, That the Board of Supervisors of the County of Frederick does herein
approve the application for rezoning of Jack K. Wampler and Polly J. Wampler to rezone 2.25
acres of land located on U. S. 11 North from A -2 to B -2.

C. Sandy voting "for" and Richard F. Madigan abstaining the above resolution was passed.
Mr. Sandy stated that he cast his vote in favor in support of the Planning Commission
LORD FAIRFAX PLANNING DISTRICT COMMISSION
WATER QUALITY
PLAN
Mr. Alderman stated that he would like to have some direction from the Board as to how
to -cast his vote on the Water Quality Management Plan. He stated that there were several point
he did not agree with one of which was that there was overlapping work, since Frederick County
is also conducting such a study.
Mr. Madigan stated that the study should take into consideration the duplication of
studies because they are talking about taxpayers' money. He said they seem to have a complete
disregard for the use of taxpayers' money.
Mr. Russell asked if they had a copy of our plans when they went into a study of this tyF
Mr. Alderman stated that the study is not yet complete. He said the question was if ther
was a conflict, will our plan yield to theirs or will they yield to ours.
Mr. Cole discussed the cost of the study for I Frederick County of $32,000.00 for this stuc
as opposed to $50,000.00 for the study for Lord Fairfax.
Mr. Alderman stated that the basis for the $32,000.00 fee was required by HUD to qualify
for federal funding.
Mr. Madigan asked if the contract signed forithis study was in proper form.
Mr. Alderman stated that he was not at the meeting and he understood that the contract
was approved to be signed by the Executive Committee of the Commission. The full Commission
was told that the Water Quality Management Plan was signed; then there was an objection from tt
floor as:to the right of the Executive Committee to sign such a contract; then the Chairman
indicated it had not been signed. Then at the next Jmeeting therecas a request from the floor
to appoint an independent citizens committee with these people being appointed by the local
governments and they would elect a Chairman of this Committee. Frederick County appointed Don
Krueger. The Chairman of the Planning Commission appointed the Chairman, Tom Gibson of Front
Royal. He stated that one objection was that the contractor and the engineer involved were
present at the committee meeting. I
Mr. Madigan stated that he felt the Board should voice their objection to the approval
of the contract until the true value of the studies have been taken into consideration and
their usefullness determined.
Mr. Alderman then read several comments from Don Krueger on the Water Quality Management
I
Contract.
Mr. Cole asked how this could - affect the couity and city studies on the waste treatment
plan, stating that these studies could overlap.
Mr. Alderman stated that this was the main concern. He stated that he would like to see
the Commission state that in no way will the outcome of their contract restrict the outcome of
the county and city studies.
Mr. Cole asked if this was so that we could move ahead with our projects, and Mr.
I
said that it was.
M••
Mr. Alderman stated that he felt that the Commission should allow Frederick County
to-appoint members to the committees.
Upon motion made by Richard F. Madigan.and seconded by Dennis T. Cole,
BE IT RESOLVED, That the Board of Supervisors of the County of Frederick does herein
go on record as opposing the regional Water Quality Management Study and does direct its

the Unisil property near Gore. He stated that they wanted property in that area so that they
could get sand and be near a railroad and that this piece of property was quite suitable. He
said that it was not in a residential area.
278
Mr. Lacy Anderson appeared in opposition to this rezoning and stated that the dust caused
by the plant would be detrimental to the residentsiof Gore. He stated that there was quite a bi
of pollution coming from the Unisil Plant now.
Mr. Sandy asked if there were any environmental controls up there and Mr. Anderson stated
i
that they had a dust collector but that it only gets about 10% of the dust from plant itsel
Mr. Ebert stated that the location is at the very fartherest end of the property which
would be more than 1000 feet from Back Creek. He stated that the company assured him that they
would take every precaution against pollution because of the government controls and there
would be no dust.
Mr. Cole asked if the company could come before the Board and explain further what they
plan to do with the property. He stated that he felt they should represent themselves before
the Board.
Mr. Ebert stated that the company could not come to another board meeting. He stated that
they could have come today but did not feel it waslnecessary and if the property were not
rezoned today they will probably locate elsewhere.
Mr. Russell asked if any of the officials of the company had talked with the Planning
and Zoning Committee and Mr. Ebert stated that he had handled it for them.
Mr. Cole stated that the Board would have a better idea of what they were getting into
if some of the officials would come before the Board and explain their operations. He said
that we have enough pollution problems here in Frederick County now and asked what assurance
Mr. Ebert could give the Board on the possible pollution problems presented by this company.
Mr. Ebert stated that the company would havelto comply with the government controls and
that they assured him they would take every precaution against pollution.
Mr. Alderman asked if this company would file an environmental impact statement and
Mr. Ebert said he was sure they would if so requested.
Mr. Madigan explained the operations planned at the plant and said that it would be
almost pollution free and that any dust would settle within 10 yards of the plant.
Mr. Madigan stated that the company would use a 2 inch pipe to take care of the water.
He stated that the Unisil Corporation is working on their five million dollar plant'and they
will solve a good bit of the pollution problem there especially the sand going into the creek
and most of the dust problem.
There was discussion as to whether or not there was any pollution control within the
building code and Mr. Alderman stated that the building code did not contain specifications
for environmental protection.
Mr. Russell asked Mr. Madigan if he had talked with the President of the Company and if
i
the president had said that the operation would be nearly pollution free. Mr. Madigan said
that was correct.
Mr. Cole stated that any company that was interested in coming into Frederick County
should come before the Board and explain themselves. He said that he had a phone call from a
lady in Gore about the sand. He said that he did not like to be pressured into anything. He
said that he felt the Board was voting for something and they did not know what was coming.
Mr. Madigan stated that he felt it would be as clean an industry as you will find in M -2
I
and that it was under -roof. He said he had talked with many residents in Gore and they had no
objections.
I
Mr. Cole asked how large this plant could get and Mr. Madigan said not too large because
the land was not suitable for building a large plant.
Mr. Russell said that if Mr. Madigan had talked with the president of the company he did
not feel they would get any thing more than they had today, but he did feel that any industry
should represent themselves before the Planning Commission and the Board of Supervisors.
Mr. Cole said he felt the Board was being hasty and that this was the most open zoning
you could get into. He said this is mining and M -1 is a different story.
Mr. Sandy said that he did not feel men on the Planning Commission felt the political
pressure that the men on the Board of-Supervisors did.
Upon motion made by Richard F. Madigan and seconded by Donald R. Hodgson,
BE IT RESOLVED, That the Board of Supervisors of the County of Frederick does herein
