Goochland moved ahead with the Urban Development Area process last week, hearing a report from the county’s consultant on the matter. Frank Cox, president of The Cox Company, spoke to the board during their 2 p.m. work session. Cox told the board that the county’s village concept in the current Comprehensive Plan “in essence currently establishes the general framework for the Urban Development Areas as they are defined by the state.” “Essentially you already have them,” said Cox. “What we need to do now is to fine tune the verbiage.” Village areas in the Goochland Courthouse area and Centreville are the areas designated by the Comprehensive Plan for higher density, the goal of the UDA legislation. Cox said that the state has for the first time has required that the county recognize in the Comprehensive Plan certain development densi-
T H E
ties. “That’s never been done before,” said Cox. Those densities are four units per acre for single family dwellings, six units for townhouses and 12 units for multifamily buildings. Cox said that the land needed to accommodate projected population and commercial growth could range from 470 to 1055 acres, less than the area encompassed by the two villages. Next steps would be to decide how to allocate the acreage between the village areas, or whether to include additional areas in the county’s UDA plan. That idea found favor with District 4 supervisor Malvern R.”Rudy” Butler, who said the Tuckahoe Creek Service District should be considered for inclusion in the UDA plan. The board voted to direct staff to go forward with seeking public input for the two village areas as well as possible inclusion of TCSD in the county’s UDA plan.

Goochland County NAACP Takes the State NAACP Crown Contributed Report news@goochlandgazette.com
The Virginia State Conference NAACP hosted its Diamond Jubilee Anniversary, October 29-31st in Roanoke, Virginia in recognition of “75 years of Pride, Dedication and Service” to the citizens of Virginia. The conference featured speakers such as poet Nikki Giovanni; author, Rawn James; Jack Gravely local radio talk show host, and various youth performers. Seventy-five years ago the Virginia State Conference NAACP was organized in Roanoke, Virginia by well know civil rights attorney Oliver Hill, of Richmond; Sadie Wyche of Suffolk; Jessie M. Tinsley, Richmond; Jewel S. Carrington of Halifax; Zenobia Gilpin, Richmond; J. Bryon Hopkins, Richmond; Dr. Leon
Ransom, National Office and Mrs. Spencer of Roanoke in 1935. The founders believed that knowledge was power and that convening at an annual meeting to share what other NAACP Branches and Youth Councils had been engaged in was an excellent way to keep people informed and an opportunity to train others on how to effectively address discrimination issues as well as inform members on the objectives and progress of the civil rights movement. This year’s conference focused on training youth in public speaking, and presenting the right images. The youth were afforded an opportunity to engage in a round table discussion on bullying in schools and how to effectively address problems with teachers. Workshops were also
presented on obesity and how to combat and prevent overweight problems. The adults attended workshops on obesity, housing, effective communication, and legal redress when handling discrimination complaints. Today the Virginia State Conference NAACP has 100 Chartered Branches serving all citizens of the Commonwealth of Virginia. The Diamond Jubilee Celebration Banquet was held Saturday, October 30, with NAACP President and CEO, Benjamin Jealous delivering the Diamond Anniversary address. The highlights of the banquet were the introduction of several queens and kings representing their respective counties or cities from across the state. Little Miss Sierra McLean of Second Union Baptist Church of Goochland repre-
sented Goochland County as its queen and was crowned queen for the State NAACP. This was a joyous celebration witnessed by 23 members from Goochland County and hundreds of members from across the state. As Little Miss Sierra McLean received her crown she was flanked by three generations including her mother Tanika McLean, Grandmother Katie Cox and Great- grandmother Marie Glover all of Goochland County. Sierra, a fifth grader at Byrd Elementary School, raised $9,000 earning her the state crown. She is an aspiring lawyer and an avid soccer player, loves to read, sing, and praise dance in her church. Her family, church and the Goochland County NAACP Branch are proud to Contributed Photo have brought the crown home Little Miss Sierra McLean of Second Union Baptist Church of for the first time in the history Goochland with NAACP president Benjamin Jealous.

Tree continued from > page 1 event. The evening started off with Christmas carols by the Goochland High School Jazz Choir directed by Susan Duty, followed by the Goochland YMCA Ballerinas, who entertained the crowd dancing to “The Jingle Bell Rock.” As the magic hour of 7:30 approached Goochland Board of Supervisors Chairman William Quarles and YMCA Executive Director Jay Shively led the crowd in a countdown to the lighting of the Christmas Tree, just behind the main stage. As the count hit zero, the tree lit up with a tastefully understated blue lighted color scheme. “It was a great start,” said Quarles. “We have many people in Goochland who have a lot. We need to ‘pay it forward,’” he said, the phrase coming from a movie title that encouraged people to pass their good for-
tune on to others. After the tree was lit, children gathered around as Steve Kenney read the “The Night Before Christmas.” Then Christmas caroling continued along with arts and crafts for the kids and hot chocolate and cookies for all. Two fires were available for roasting marshmallows, or just warming one’s hands to ward off the chill. Nine-year-old Kelly Hitt was one of the first youngsters to get Santa’s ear. He told him he wanted some more Bakugan game figures. YMCA Program Director Jan Kenney, who promoted the idea for the tree lighting event, called the event a resounding success. “It was clear that this is something that the people want,” said Kenney, who said plans were to make the tree lighting an annual event with Goochland Recreation and Parks collaborating again next year with the Goochland The Christmas Tree after the lights were switched on.

Honoring Bill of Rights Day Guest Column by Dr. Mark W. fundamental rights has eroded over Hendrickson the decades. The property right has
December 15 is Bill of Rights Day. This year is the 219th anniversary of the adoption of the first 10 amendments to the United States Constitution—the Bill of Rights. Few Americans notice Bill of Rights Day. That isn’t surprising, since we have done such a poor job of upholding and abiding by its provisions. Rather than debate individual amendments, let’s consider a more fundamental problem: We poorly understand the elementary concept of rights. Many Americans, both conservative and liberal, further cloud the issue by asserting that responsibilities frequently eclipse rights. To the founders, government’s sole legitimate purpose is to protect our rights. The Declaration of Independence specifies two essential points we need to understand about our rights: 1) They are God-given; 2) they are inalienable. Divine authority is a stumbling block for some Americans, but it is the second point that is the immediate issue. That our basic rights are inalienable means, simply and unequivocally: No person or group of persons, including government, is justified in trespassing upon anyone’s rights— that is, in taking life, liberty or property from another—except via due process of law as a penalty for having harmed or violated someone else’s life, liberty, or property. One person’s rights end where another person’s rights begin. The clear understanding of our
suffered the greatest damage. Under the influence of progressive/socialist ideas, the traditional American negative right to not have somebody take one’s property has been corrupted and inverted into a positive premise. One of the most famous examples of this inverted concept of rights was President Franklin Roosevelt’s socalled “Economic Bill of Rights.” In 1944, FDR asserted that Americans had a “right to a useful and remunerative job,” “a decent home,” “adequate medical care,” “a good education,” etc. Nobody objects to decent jobs, homes, health care, and education, but these good things can’t be “rights.” If one person has a legal right to have a home, then other people must be compelled to provide that home. That would violate those citizens’ rights to their own liberty and property. In other words, “rights” in FDR’s sense negates “rights” in the founders’ sense. The assertion that we have become too “rights-centered” and that we need to strike a balance between rights and responsibilities is inaccurate and misleading. First, our Republic has always been rights-centered—after all, we have a Bill of Rights. Second, no mature adult denies that we have responsibilities. Citizens have at least three primary responsibilities in our constitutional, rights-based order: First, to respect the rights of others; second, to provide for self and dependents; third, to find a see Editorial > page 7

I am confident that 2011 will find these folks and hopefully others meeting the challenges which the New Year is sure to provide. One can work towards progress, though progress is often in the eye of the beholder but when it comes to caring for others in need, we know it when we see it. I believe that many of the people that work for the county, elected or not, all have a need/desire to succeed. We are a diverse county demographically but we are greater than the sum of all our parts. Wishing all a happy and safe new year. Looking forward to all exceeding their expectations.

But don’t we have a responsibility to help those who are in need? Yes, we who are in the Judeo-Christian tradition have a responsibility to extend charity to those who are incapable of helping themselves. This, however, is a moral responsibility, not a legal one. It makes no sense to say that those who work hard, are productive, and have savings, have a responsibility to provide for those who shirked that very

same responsibility. That position denies the premise that we all share the same responsibilities. It is to maintain that some competent adults have responsibilities and others don’t. The traditional American credo is that we all have equal rights and responsibilities. Progressives, by contrast, believe that government should decide whose “rights” and “responsibilities” receive privileged treatment. Which side of the fence are you on? Dr. Mark W.

Del. Bill Janis talks with students at a recent reception at the Maggie Walker Governor’s School.
Janis continued from > page 2 Janis, who has been deputy whip for the last three years, explained that his responsibility “is to make sure there
are no surprises. It’s three parts nose-counting and one part arm-twisting.” In reality, Janis said he is expected to know where everyone is on key issues, both Republican and Democrat.
“If I need 51 votes I don’t really much care where they come from,” said Janis, who noted that he has forged good relationships with many Democrats from rural districts who tend to vote conservative.

Tips to fireproof your house this winter season Contributed Report news@goochlandgazette.com
To assist you in protecting your family and property, consider the following tips from the United States Fire Administration and the Virginia Department of Fire Programs to reduce your chances of becoming a winter fire casualty: Kerosene Heaters Be sure that kerosene heaters are legal in your area. Be sure your heater is in good working
condition. Inspect exhaust parts for carbon buildup. Be sure the heater has an emergency shut off in case the heater is tipped over. Never use fuel burning appliances without proper room venting. Burning fuel (coal, kerosene, or propane, for example) can produce deadly fumes. Use ONLY the fuel recommended by the heater manufacturer. NEVER introduce a fuel into a unit not designed for that type fuel. Keep kerosene, or other flammable liquids stored in approved metal containers, in well ventilated storage areas, outside of the house. Never fill the heater while it is operating or hot.
source in homes. Careful attention to safety can minimize their fire hazard. To use them safely: Be sure the fireplace or stove is installed properly. Wood stoves should have adequate clearance (36”) from combustible surfaces and proper floor support and protection. Wood stoves should be of good quality, solid construction and design, and should be laboratory tested. Have the chimney inspected annually and Wood Stoves and cleaned if necessary, especially if it Fireplaces has not been used for some time. Do not use flammable liquids to Wood stoves and fireplaces are start or accelerate any fire. Keep becoming a very common heat a glass or metal screen in front of Refueling should be done outside of the home (or outdoors). Keep young children away from space heaters—especially when they are wearing night gowns or other loose clothing that can be easily ignited. When using a fuel burning appliance in the bedroom, be sure there is proper ventilation to prevent a buildup of carbon monoxide.
WRAP UP A GREAT DEAL!
the fireplace opening, to prevent embers or sparks from jumping out, unwanted material from going in, and help prevent the possibility of burns to occupants. The stove should be burned hot twice a day for 15-30 minutes to reduce the amount of creosote buildup. Don’t use excessive amounts of paper to build roaring fires in fireplaces. It is possible to ignite creosote in the chimney by overbuilding the fire. Never burn charcoal indoors. Burning charcoal can give off lethal amounts of carbon monoxide. Keep flammable materials away from your fireplace mantel. A spark from the fireplace could easily ignite theses materials. Before you go to sleep, be sure your fireplace fire is out. NEVER close your damper with hot ashes in the fireplace. A closed damper will help the fire to heat up again and will force toxic carbon monoxide into the house. If synthetic logs are used, follow the directions on the package. NEVER break a synthetic log apart to quicken the fire or use more than one log at a time. They often burn unevenly, releasing higher levels of carbon monoxide. Furnace Heating

It is important that you have your furnace inspected to ensure that it is in good working condition. Be sure all furnace controls and emergency shutoffs are in proper working condition. Leave furnace repairs to qualified specialists. Do not attempt repairs yourself unless you are qualified. Inspect the walls and ceiling near the furnace and along the chimney line. If the wall is hot or discolored, additional pipe insulation or clearance may be required. Check the flue pipe and pipe seams. Are they well supported and free of holes and cracks? Soot along or around seams may be an indicator of a leak. Is the chimney solid, with
cracks or loose bricks? All unused flue openings should be sealed with solid masonry. Keep trash and other combustibles away from the heating system. Other Winter Fire Safety Tips
Never discard hot ashes inside or near the home. Place them in a metal container outside and well away from the house. Never use a range or an oven as a supplemental heating device. Not only is it a safety hazard, it can be a source of potentially toxic fumes. If you use an electric heater, be sure not to overload the circuit. Only use extension cords which have the necessary rating to carry an amp load. TIP: Choose an extension cord the same size or larger than the appliance electrical cord. Avoid using electrical space heaters in bathrooms or other areas where they may come in contact with water. Frozen water pipes? Never try to thaw them with a blow torch or other open flame, otherwise the pipe could conduct the heat and ignite the wall structure inside the wall space. Use hot water or a laboratory tested device such as a hand held dryer for thawing. If windows are used as emergency exits in your home, practice using them in the event fire should strike. Be sure that all the windows open easily. Home escape ladders are recommended. If there is a fire hydrant near your home you can assist the fire department by keeping the hydrant clear of snow so in the event it is needed, it can be located. Finally... Be sure every level of your home has a working smoke alarm, and be sure to check and clean it on a monthly basis. Plan and practice a home escape plan with your family. Contact your local fire department for advice if you have a question on home fire safety.

Board continued from > page 1 public comment period at the beginning of the board’s 3 p.m. meeting, several speakers questioned the UDA process. Susan Lascolette said the UDA process was being pushed by land use groups and that there would be attempts to remove the UDA requirement in the next General Assembly session. “My objection is the erosion of property rights,” said Lascolette later in the week. But Principal Planner Tom Coleman said that just

because the county creates the mandated UDA’s does not detract from the board’s rezoning authority. Coleman said the UDA concept grew out of a desire to make more efficient use of roads and to slow growth of transportation funding. And directing growth to the village areas will help keep the rest of the county more rural, said Coleman. Butler said he favors the UDA concept. “You need to put growth in the villages where we have water and sewer,” said Butler. Coleman said a citizen survey was being prepared by the consultant and com-
munity meetings would be held before the matter was placed before the Planning Commission and ultimately the board for inclusion into the Comprehensive Plan. In other business, the board heard a presentation by Major Don Bewkes of the Sheriff ’s Office concerning the need to upgrade the county’s communications by January 2003 as mandated by the FCC. The proposed plan involves constructing an addition to the Sheriff ’s Office, upgrading county owned towers and purchasing a new radio system for all county agencies.
“With the current system we cannot meet the interoperability needs with other jurisdictions,” said Bewkes. In the evening session the board deferred consideration of public hearings on zoning the proposed Route 623 landfill until January 4.

Mustang guards stampede Bulldogs, 70-49 Outside shooting cold for Goochland BY JIM RIDOLPHI Special Correspondent
Last Wednesday was one of those nights best forgotten for the Goochland Bulldogs boys’ basketball team. The Monticello Mustangs brought their high energy, fast paced style of play to the Goochland gym and simply overwhelmed the Bulldogs, 7049, in a Jefferson District matchup. “We were outplayed in every phase of the game tonight and never got going,” said Goochland head coach Oliver Courtney. “We missed shots we should have made and made mistakes you can’t afford to make against a team like Monticello.” It was only minutes into the game when Courtney took his first timeout with the score 12-4. The resulting efforts concentrated on stopping the Mustang guards, who were dominant on both ends of the court. But nothing seemed to work against Monticello (2-2, 1-1 Jefferson District) and the opening quarter ended with the Bulldogs on the trailing end of a 16-7 score. In the second period, a couple of spectacular plays by Goochland’s Tim Miller coupled with some accurate three point shooting pulled the Bulldogs within two at 16-14, but the Mustangs responded with an offensive run that resulted in a 34-24 halftime lead. Monticello continued their up tempo fast break game in the second half and the Bulldogs just couldn’t keep up with Mustang guards Jahlil Mosley, Banes. “I thought we played well tonight and we depended on our guards and that’s our game,” said Mustang coach Kareem Martin. “That’s going to be the key to what we do. They’re lightning fast.” Martin said he’s still waiting for his “bigs” to come along to complement the excellent guard play. “Once they’re involved, we’ll be that much

more dangerous,” he added. Mosley led all Mustang scorers with 18 while Banes recorded nine. Kevin Archer had 14 points and Denzell Terry had 12; all of them from the guard position. Martin’s team started out slow with two close losses but has since evened its record. “We’ve still got a lot of things we need to work on, but once our inside play improves, we’ll have it all come together,” he said. Meanwhile, Goochland is still looking for answers. “Looks like everyone we’re meeting is playing well, so we have to adjust the way we play these teams,” Courtney said following the loss. “We got outplayed all the way around, so there’s not much you take away from a game
like this one.” Courtney said he’d stress the basics like rebounding and defense and instill the need for improvement. “We’ve got a lot of work to do.” Courtney feels those improvements will have to come from the outside shooters in order to make the inside game work. Every team is aware that the Bulldog’s strength comes in the form of 6-6 center Corbyn Jackson, and they key on him. Therefore, that should lead to uncontested outside shots. “There are shots open that we are not making from the outside,” Courtney said. “Until we do, every team is going to sag in on the big man. Until we put the ball in the hole, the other teams are taking away our main threat and that’s
tough.” Even with the extra attention, Jackson led all scorers with 17 points, while Tim Miller added 11. On Friday night, the Bulldogs turned in a hard effort but suffered another home loss 58-51, this time to Orange County, falling to 0-3 in the Jefferson District play. The Bulldog girls and boys have a week off to improve before returning to action this Friday for a home showdown against Louisa. It will be the teams’ final home game before the Christmas break. The girls’ game begins at 6 p.m. and the boys take the court at 7:30 p.m.

JV football coach Matt Singleton introduced his district winning team to an appreciative audience. The junior Bulldogs captured the Jefferson District crown for the second year in a row. “If I had to say one word that would describe this team, it would be heart,” Singleton said before he handed out awards. Mitchell Brice was named offensive MVP while Scott Pearce was tapped as defensive MVP. Collin Smith received the Bulldog award and Jordan
Jefferson walked away with the coaches’ award. Varsity football coach Joe Fowler followed with is near 60- member squad. The veteran coach said this year’s 6-4 record was a disappointment. “We have high expectations around here,” Fowler said. He said although some members of the squad may go on to college careers, many more will contribute in other ways. “ I don’t know if any of these kids will play in the NFL. I don’t know if any of them will be college All Americans,” Fowler said. “But I’d be willing to bet that out of this group will come a doctor, a lawyer, a Board of Supervisor or School Board representative, a teacher, a fireman, a police officer or a person who serves in the military. Whether they play football or
not, that’s what it is important.” Running back David McKenna was named offensive MVP, while Jess McLaughlin was tapped as defensive MVP. Three athletes were named as coaches award winners. They were Jonathan Herndon, Adam Maguire and Cameron Harrison. Athletic trainer Melissa Black recognized the dedicat-
ed students who assist her in keeping GHS athletes healthy and on the field or court. Senior members of the staff included Jazmyne Cook,Amber Robinson and Rhavin Cooley. Underclass students recognized were Morgan Garrett, Alexa Condrey, Monique Morman, Sydney Ezell, India Pleasant, and Katrice Tinsley. Team manager was Lauren Garner.

By Ken Odor Media General News Service Henrico’s Byrd Middle School celebrated its selection as the school with the best library in Virginia last Thursday. Chosen by the Virginia Educational Media Association (VEMA) as the
School Library of the Year for 2010, Byrd was visited by Nancy Everhart, American Association of School Librarians (AASL) President on her “Vision Tour” of some of the nation’s best school libraries. “This is the 14th school I’ve been to since September,” said Everhart, who said she was heading home for the holidays after her visit to Byrd. She hopes to
visit all 35 libraries nominated by their states this year. Thursday’s festivities included two assemblies for the student body. After performances by the Byrd cheerleaders and the step team, School Board Chair Lisa Marshall told the students she was not surprised that Byrd’s library was continued on page 3

Henrico Schools Secondary Education Director David Meyers said he’s often heard libraries called the “brain” of the school but that at Byrd it went further. “Your library is the brain and the heart of this school,” said Meyers. “We’re really proud of you – great job Byrd Middle School.” Guest speaker Rob Ukrop, stressed the importance of reading in his comments. “Reading gives you a good

foundation,” said Ukrop. “Once you learn to read it’s a lifetime skill.” Ukrop brought a copy of “The Giving Tree,” a book his dad used to read to him when he was a young boy when he couldn’t sleep or had nightmares. “The thing I love is that it’s just me and the book,” said Ukrop, who said that he reads everyday. At the close of the assembly, Everhart presented the award to Byrd Librarians Shannon Hyman and Janis Jones and Assistant Librarian Mary Freundt. Hyman said Byrd principal Sharon Pope had nominated the Byrd Library. “It’s quite an honor to rep-
resent the Henrico system,” said Hyman, who credited the school’s staff for their suppport of the library. Everhart said the criteria for selection of the best libraries included having outstanding programming that affected every student in the school, the population had to be diverse, the library must be visually stimulating and the school librarians had to be members of AASL. “You meet those criteria far and above,” said Everhart, who said the school libraries selected would be held up for others to emulate. Before the assemblies, Everhart toured the school and took part in a panel discussion and model instructional lesson.
