for the three high schools and the practical capacity for the three high schools?
5. The estimated cost ofthe new high school is $36 million. Is this based upon the construction
costs for Sherando high school or some other data? Did the cost of She ran do include land
costs? What is the estimated per square foot cost of the new high school?
6. What has it cost Loudoun County to build it's most recent high schools? How large were
they?

What is the estimated per square foot cost ofthe finished facility? Is it a shared facility with
the county? Does the county's participation increase/decrease the costs?

School Board warehouse needs? Leasing of new built-to-suite facilities? Buying/leasing of
existing warehouse structures. (The Kingsdown building in Fort Collier recently sold for $1
million plus. How does this square footage compare to finished Robinson project?)

upon the need for a third high school and warehouse facility. Should the Frederick County
School Board recornmend incurring debt and the Frederick County Board of Supervisors

that were presented to the school board on August 30, 2000 with regard to school construction etc.

he is interested in seeing other bids. He further stated that he feels each school should have their
own architect and that once an architect is selected it should not be for a three year contract.

site at the time of purchase. He asked to see the plan for the remaining acreage.

individual fire company needs under the capital improvements plan, and in looking at this
information, he asked if the answer is no.
Mr. Wyatt explained that under this particular section, the fire companies are looking at
utilizing the same public safety facility as the Sheriff. He further explained that in a different section
ofthis plan, new fire buildings are discussed.
Mr. Wyatt explained that the information contained in (C) was compiled a few years ago by
a group oflearning students.
Chairman Shickle inquired as to what extent did the planning staff review the statistics
contained in this information.
Mr. Wyatt explained that these statistics were established as part of the learning services
project a few years ago with the students who looked at various criteria.
Chairman Shickle asked Director Gary DuBrueler ifhe was comfortable with these statistics
and recommendations.
Director DuBrueler replied that he was.

Chairman Shickle requested that this information be sent to the chiefs of three fire
companies that he had promised it to.
Director DuBrueler replied that he would take care of it.
Supervisor Reyes asked Director DuBrueler if he was comfortable with this information
based on funding that would be needed.
Director DuBrueler explained that there is no request for funding at this time, as this
information is being provided solely for information for the comprehensive plan. At such time as
projects would be looked at closer, then a more in depth study would be conducted to determine the
exact funding needed.
Assistant Director Wyatt spoke to (B) The Frederick County Sanitation Authority long-range
water facilities plan at this time, and noted the recommended changes.
Mr. Wyatt addressed the Northeast Frederick Land Use Plan at this time, and by way of a
colored map, explained what was planned for this section of the Land Use Plan. Upon completion
of his presentation, Mr. Wyatt referred to a letter that appeared in the September 27, 2000 edition
of the Winchester Star in the Letter to the Editor section. He advised that he felt compelled to
respond at this time to this letter due to the fact that it referred to this plan, and in his determination
was not completely accurate.
Supervisor Smith inquired about running a spur for railway, and asked if that was in the plan.
Mr. Wyatt explained what would be needed in order for this to happen, and based on rail
coming to the location ofthe Old Charles Town Road would mean considerable engineering in order
for this to be considered, and this would have to come back before the Board for their approval.
The following citizens appeared before the Board at this time to address this plan.
Winston Cameron, President of Preservation of Historic Winchester, thanked County for
their sensitivity in the past as well as in the future. He thanked Mr. Wyatt for his presentation as he
felt it was very well done. He asked the Board to consider all the information that is available to
them in reviewing the comprehensive plan.
Patricia Zontine, resident of City of Winchester and a member of the Shenandoah Valley
Battlefields National Historic District Commission, and currently serving with Planning Director
Kris Tierney. She commended Frederick County Planning also, for their planning and pointing out
what needs to be done. She does; however, have a problem with this particular part of the Land Use

Plan for when you look at all the planning that has been done, it points to the historical importance
of this, but yet it is targeted for industrial development. She further explained that plans were in
place for the historic portion of this plan to be used as a tourist attraction that would benefit both
Frederick County and the City of Winchester. She asked the Board to reconsider this plan and send
it back to planning.
Mike Webber, Stonewall District, is opposed to this plan. He does not understand why this
section ofthe county has been chosen for so much commercial and industrial development over the
years. He feels this would be a big mistake if the Board approves this request.
John Good, Stonewall District, feels this is a good plan, and it is just that, a plan. This is not
something that will be developed over night, but he feels it does need to be in place for future
planning purposes. He complimented Mr. Wyatt on all the work that he has put into this plan.
Judy Omps, resident ofthe City of Winchester, was present to present to the Board a petition
on behalf of residents of the Stephenson area wherein they are asking the Board to reexamine the
Land Use Plan in the Northeast Corridor. The petition referred to the various studies that have been
done in this area with reference to the historical value of this land.
James Stillwell, resident of Highbanks Road in Stephenson, this property is located very
close to where some ofthe development is proposed. He feels that the two miles that is planned to
go into a residential area is too extensive, and this has been discussed before. He feels that all civil
war battle sites should be shown on all maps, not just certain ones, and more specific detail is
needed. He feels this should be tabled until such time as more information is provided.
Catherine Whitesell, Back Creek District, appeared before the Board representing Dr.
Brandon Beck. Mrs. Whitesell presented to the Board members a copy of The McCormick Civil
War Institute for their review. This information summarizes the events of the 2nJ Battle of
Winchester, which ended on June 15, 1863 at Stephenson's Depot. This site is the core of a
proposed Milburn Historic District and includes sites from the Revolutionary War as well as all three
Battles of Winchester. Expressed the importance of saving the 2nd Battle of Winchester.
Chairman Shickle advised that for those that have already appeared before the Board, but felt
they needed an additional minute or two, he was granting that at this time.
John Good, explained that if you want to draw a crowd at a Board meeting you need to talk
about a rezoning, a water tank, Route 37 East and the citizens will turn out. The question is, are we
Minute Book Number 27
Board of Supervisors Meeting of 09/27/00
(1
here to save something, or are we here to stop something, and he thinks it makes a heck of a
difference when citizens show up.
Mike Webber, explained that he knew of a number of citizens that would like to appear
before the Board, but their feelings are what good would it do. They don't hear a word you say.
They will go right ahead and develop anyhow. The Board needs to look at everyones' concerns.
Does Mr. Good live in this area?
Catherine Whitesell, appeared this time on behalf of her mother, Betsy Solenberger who was
out of town. Ms. Whitesell referred to the Samuel Byers House and the Milburn Historical District,
and the concern her mother had about this property. She felt her mother's expressions in the
newspaper were based on the information she had been given at previous public meetings.
Supervisor Smith stated that he felt the Board does listen to their constituents.
Supervisor Orndoff questioned Mr. Wyatt about acreage and what was planned for the areas
as colored on the map.
Mr. Wyatt explained that majority of the historical area has been identified in the western
part ofthe area of Milburn Road. However, he did point out that some does lye in the eastern part
where some ofthe battle did take place.
Supervisor Orndoff asked Mr. Wyatt if this plan was sent back to committee what changes
could be done.
Mr. Wyatt explained that Frederick County has never formally endorsed the Historic concept
for this district. Ifthe Board feels this is warranted then this significantly changes what is before the
Board at this meeting. He further explained that if the Board feels a historic district is warranted
within this area then he is of the opinion that it is not a good idea to show industrial land use within
it. If the Board is really serious about establishing a historic district within this area then the plan
should go back to the planning department for additional study, if not, then they should vote on what
is before them at this meeting.
Chairman Shickle inquired as to what No vote would do to this plan.
Planning Director Tierney explained that the southern portion of this plan was approved in
1996; however, the plan before the Board at this meeting is much more extensive, and ifthe plan
before the Board tonight is endorsed then the 1996 plan will remain as it is.
Supervisor Orndoff asked if nothing is done then the acreage that has been discussed could
Minute Book Number 27
Board of Supervisors Meeting of 09/27/00
07r
be subdivided into 5 acre lots without any zoning, etc.
Director Tierney explained that has always been a possibility.
Supervisor Orndoff moved to send this Plan back to committee. Supervisor Reyes seconded
this motion.
Supervisor Sager asked for clarification of this motion.
Mr. Wyatt advised that if the Board was happy with the remammg topics of the
comprehensive policy plan update, but not the Northeast Frederick Land Use Plan, then he suggest
that a vote to approve be done only on that portion.
Director Tierney explained that he did not feel the plan should be approved in part. It should
be done in whole or nothing at all. The text amendments could be approved, B,C,&D and send the
balance back to committee.
Supervisor Reyes explained that he feels the need to clearly establish the rural historic
district, to be sure it is preserved.
The question of clarity, on what was contained in the motion, was a point raised at this time.
Supervisor Reyes asked Administrator Riley to help with the clarification ofthis motion and
help the Board to achieve what they want done. He wants to carve out the historical language and
keep it.
Administrator Riley explained to the Board that they need to think about what they are
saying. He further explained if the Board wants to take the area, that is outlined in black on the map
that is before them and remove this from the plan then the Board will be telling the landowner that
they will be severely limited as to what they can do with their property within this area.
Supervisor Douglas stated that she felt the planning staff had done a very good job of this
plan, and ifKris Tierney recommended that it be approved ,as presented, then she would endorse
what they had recommended.
Supervisor Reyes withdrew his second.
There was no second to Supervisor Orndoffs original motion; therefore, the motion died.
Supervisor Smith moved to approve the update of the 2000 Comprehensive Policy Plan as
presented. Supervisor Douglas seconded this motion.
The above motion was approved by the following recorded vote:
