Sterling Man Faces Life Sentence in Sister’s Death BY NORMAN K. STYER AND KATHARINE DEROSA

Those renters would pay reduced or even no rent in exchange for doing specific work on the property. Other supervisors supported with the concept—and added it could be a good chance to look into what the county should do with those properties, which are historic, and which are simply old. “I do think we need to have a conversation at some point about all of these properties and what our intent is, because I think there are some that would probably be better served with other organizations running them,” said

“In cold blood.” Those were the first words spoken Tuesday to the jury on the opening day of a murder trial expected to continue late into next week. Michel Moreno, 59, is charged with Moreno first-degree murder and felony hit and run in the July 21, 2018 death of his sister, Nancy, whom he struck with a vehicle as she was walking along the shoulder of Rt. 28. “In cold blood. That’s what we used to call it,” Deputy Commonwealth’s Attorney Jason Faw said to the jury during his opening statement in the case. If prosecutors can prove to a unanimous jury that Moreno acted willfully, deliberately and with premeditation in causing the death of his 54-year-old sister, Moreno could be sentenced to spend 20 years to life in prison. Moreno’s attorney, Robert Vernail, told the jury that few elements of the case would be in dispute as dozens of witnesses provide testimony in the following days, but he indicated that Moreno ultimately would take the stand and tell them what was going through his mind that day. Faw said that Moreno and his sister had a “complex” relationship that became further strained when their mother, Anna, was diagnosed with cancer. It started with a disagreement over her treatment options. Moreno, who lived with his mother in Sterling, wanted her to undergo holistic treatment, while Nancy favored conventional medical treatment. A close friend of Nancy’s testified that while Anna was ill, he had to mediate a disagreement

The mailbox in front of the old Arcola Elementary School, built in 1939, lays in a bush nearby the disused building. In 2016, supervisors declined a proposal from the Windy Hill Foundation to put affordable housing in the building; a new proposal could give county-owned historic properties like the school a new lease on life under private management.

Loudouners Could Live In, Maintain Publicly-Owned Historic Properties BY RENSS GREENE County supervisors will consider a program to allow private organizations to run—or even live in—county-owned historic properties in exchange for commitments to maintain, preserve and improve those properties. Supervisors on July 2 approved Supervisor Tony R. Buffington (R-Blue Ridge)’s proposal to explore the program. Staff members said the county’s Heritage Commission would consult with other counties that have started a similar program to develop a detailed proposal. Buffington called it a way to get preservation work done on long-held but often

long-dormant historic sites, “to begin to leverage some of the private money via public-private partnerships to allow us to enter into leases and agreements with private entities to better manage, preserve, maintain and operate some of our own historic properties.” “Such a program could even include the option of allowing private entities to actually live in the buildings in our historic properties in exchange for an agreement or a lease that they would be required to improve the property,” Buffington said. “… So I think this is a good way for us to get some private dollars into better maintaining and improving some of our historic properties.”

Supervisors, Staff Look to Help Pay for Farm Sign Fix BY RENSS GREENE County supervisors, attorneys and zoning regulators are still looking for a fix after a series of complaints brought down roadside signs advertising wayside stands and farm markets around western Loudoun, threatening those businesses’ future. As a short-term fix, the county may help the affected business owners pay the costly fee to apply for an exception to sign rules. Those signs are out of compliance with Loudoun’s strict sign regulations—but those rules are only enforced if a complaint filed, and those

farms and markets have long relied on signs to advertise themselves to drivers passing by. The concerns about Loudoun’s sign ordinances were brought to light when one person began filing complaints about signs advertising agricultural businesses in western Loudoun, and those business owners now face fines if they keep their signs up. On June 4, county supervisors extended the appeals period for those citations to the end of October to buy themselves and those business owners some time before the fines start coming, but they are still looking for answers. County staff members have

warned changing the sign ordinance would be a lengthy process—as long as three years—because of its complexity, the limited county staffing available and the requirements for public outreach. The courts have also ruled under freedom of speech protections that it would be unconstitutional for the county to regulate signs differently based on their content—such as putting different rules on a sign that advertises a farm stand versus a sign advertising an apartment complex. Supervisors have offered several suggestions for getting around the regula-

For many of Loudoun’s 42 councilmembers, working in the fields of information technology, government contracting and real estate is commonplace. For Hillsboro Councilman Stephen Moskal, his office is the fairway. Moskal, 51, was once a professional golfer who competed in European circuits throughout the 1990s. Now almost two decades since he moved back to the U.S. to start life anew with a more traditional career path, Moskal is serving his first term on the Hillsboro Town Council and spending all his time between a town that boasts a population of 170 and a golf club that features three times that number of people registered as members—Ashburn’s Belmont Country Club. It’s there

that he keeps his professional golfing skillset sharp. Only now, he’s doing so by teaching others how to play. Moskal began golfing at age 10, playing the game with his dad and brothers at a small golf club in Michigan in the late ‘70s. Four years later, when he was a freshman in high school, Moskal got serious about the game and started practicing every day during the summer. That practice landed him a spot on his high school golf team. But the game still didn’t come natural to him at that time. “I was terrible,” Moskal said. “I was so bad. I was most improved player two years in a row.” And most improved player he definitely was, becoming all-state in his MOSKAL >> 43

Loudoun Human Services Plan Sets Targets for Nonprofit Work BY RENSS GREENE A year of work among Loudoun’s nonprofits and human services agencies has produced a set of overarching strategies to better coordinate the work of the county’s humanitarian organizations. The new Loudoun County Human Services Strategic Plan, unveiled at the Board of Supervisors meeting June 2, is a massive list of 103 projects around five goals over five years. Those five goals include closing service gaps for

vulnerable or underserved people; addressing social determinants of health in Loudoun, the conditions under which people live and the affect those conditions have on them; integrating Loudoun’s human services to optimize access; developing and coordinating resources and funding to meet the county’s growing needs; and strengthening the community and network among human services providers in Loudoun. It was developed with work from more than 120 experts from 67 or-

ganizations, as well as input at eight community workshops and from more than 400 people in an online survey. The plan also comes with a new committee, the Loudoun County Human Services Strategic Plan Advisory Committee, which is being assembled under Assistant County Administrator Valmarie Turner’s leadership. It will include senior government staff members from county departments like Family Services and the Health TARGETS >> 6

Daughters of the American Revolution Support Clerk’s Historic Preservation BY RENSS GREENE The Ketoctin Chapter of the National Society of the Daughters of the American Revolution presented Clerk of the Circuit Court Gary Clemens and his Historic Records and Deed Research Division with a $16,445 grant to preserve three historic records that are being damaged by previous preservation efforts. Sharon Hodges of the Ketoctin Chapter presented the grant during a brief July 2 ceremony in the courthouse square. The books are some of the oldest in the clerk’s historic collection, which stretches well into America’s colonial days.

Court Order Book A includes records from 1757-1761 and was Loudoun’s first court order book. Another, a rough minute book, covers 1780-1782 and records payments for goods and services to the state militia, Continental Army, and county residents during the American Revolutionary War. The third, Court Order Book G, covers 1776-1780, the first court order book published after the Declaration of Independence. On the title page, thenclerk John Binns wrote “Independence declared 4th day of July 1776,” and the first two pages of the book order that the Declaration of Independence be read from the steps of the county courthouse in Leesburg—close to the

spot where the Daughters of the American Revolution presented Clemens with a check. It also ordered all county officials to take new oaths of office— to the newly independent Commonwealth of Virginia. The three books are being damaged by a laminate from the 1970s, at the time the standard practice in preserving historic documents. Many years later, historians discovered that over time the laminate was actually breaking down the pages inside. The grant will pay to remove the old laminate and place the pages in new, safer protection. Historic Records Manager Eric Larson described the process, which PRESERVATION >> 7

Loudoun United Stadium Named Segra Field Loudoun United announced Monday that its home stadium near Leesburg will be named Segra Field, after inking a naming-rights deal with the fiber optic network company. “There are many pieces to the puzzle that is building a brand new soccer club and stadium from the ground level. Creating strong partnerships from the beginning is a key piece to long term success,” stated Loudoun United Chief Operating Officer Adam Behnke. “Partnering with Segra is a win for all of us. It opens the door for the future growth of both Loudoun United FC and Segra within the rapidly growing business community in Loudoun County.” The team’s first game in the stadium at Philip A. Bolen Memorial Park, which is still under construction, is scheduled for Aug. 9. The stadium will also host a variety of other sporting events, community activities, and concerts. The naming rights partnership is a seven-and-a-half year deal going through 2026.

The new complex will seat 5,000 people and is planned to have eight luxury suites seating 24 each, along with concessions, vendors, and beer and wine. “Segra is proud to partner with Loudoun United FC,” stated Segra Vice President of Marketing James Nester. “This is an exciting project for Loudoun and the region. We look forward to supporting soccer’s growth in the area, while further establishing our brand and helping drive economic development in Loudoun.” Segra is one of the largest independent fiber bandwidth companies in the U.S., created by the merger of Lumos Networks and Spirit Communications. The company has nearly 25,000 miles of fiber connecting more than 9,000 on-net locations and 44 data centers throughout nine mid-Atlantic and southeastern states. Segra provides Ethernet, MPLS, dark fiber, advanced data center services, IP and managed services, voice and cloud solutions.

Targets << FROM 4 Department alongside nonprofit leaders, the schools, the Loudoun County Chamber of Commerce, and representatives from among the people served by Loudoun’s human services organizations. The Loudoun Human Services Network, a growing group of area nonprofits, played a central role in devising the new plan. Chairwoman Carol Jameson, the CEO of HealthWorks for Northern Virginia, said, “there’s a lot of enthusiasm among the members.” “We now have 50 members, so we’re really large, which is great,” Jameson said “I’m just so over the moon that we have so many nonprofits joining us. So, with 50 members, that’s a lot of potential folks that I want to serve on the advisory committee.” But nonprofits outside the network may still help, particularly in subcommittees and working groups to tackle specific topics. Then, Jameson said, the work of that advisory committee and its subject-specific subcommittees can help lay out a five-year roadmap. “That will enable us to start building more concrete, measurable objectives that we want to try to reach,” Jameson said. “And key in any strategic planning is you set yourself an objective, you implement it, see how did it goes, how do we measure it.”

The plan also highlights the collaboration among Loudoun nonprofits— while they often must compete for funding, including from the county government, they often also find ways to cooperate. “I think the conversation has been more about the enhanced impact that can be had when organizations work in at least a cooperative fashion, and may be moving toward a more integrated fashion where they’re serving clients,” Jameson said. She pointed to a collaboration between her organization and Loudoun Hunger Relief, which operates a food pantry at HealthWorks. Many of the people who visit the center, which provides healthcare to people with limited or no health insurance, may also need help with food. “It’s opening up those sorts of doors to think how do we complement what we each do,” Jameson said. “At the end of the day, we’re doing this to better serve the community.” “It unlocked huge opportunities,” said Amy Owen, Executive Director of the nonprofit funding organization the Community Foundation for Loudoun and Northern Fauquier Counties, which also played a central role in creating the plan. “In fact, we at the Community Foundation anticipate that some of our donors will look over those action items and see where they might plug in their personal philanthropic resources to see where the greater good can be met, so I think it

really opens doors.” But Owen is concerned the plan’s sheer scope and size may make it unwieldy. “I think the biggest challenge we were faced, because so many individuals and businesses and nonprofits and government leaders were involved, was to stay focused,” Owen said. “… To some extent we may have failed, we may have created such a large list of things to do that it may feel overwhelming for the next committee that takes it on, but staying focused was important to be sure that they identified low hanging fruit, things that are easy as well as really high-impact opportunities.” That will fall to the advisory committee, which will come up with an action plan. Turner said she hopes to have the committee up and running by September. During the Board of Supervisors meeting, Supervisor Suzanne M. Volpe (R-Algonkian) wondered how supervisors should make sure the plan turns into action instead of getting lost. And Supervisor Matthew F. Letourneau (R-Dulles) cautioned “any time you do one of these things, now it’s only as good as whether you actually implement it.” He said he would like to make sure supervisors are referring back to the strategic plan—particularly during annual county budget deliberations. rgreene@loudounnow.com

This financial and emotional tightrope is one you usually have to walk alone because most agents have no way of helping you with this predicament. But one local realtor is using a unique Guaranteed Sale Program which solves this dilemma. This program guarantees the sale of your present home before you take possession of your new one. If your home doesn’t sell in 120 days, they will buy it from you themselves for the previously agreed price ensuring that you never get caught in the

Real Estate Catch 22. Before you hire any professional, you should research the market to find out who can do the best job for you. When interviewing agents, find out what kind of guarantee they are willing to give you with respect to the selling of your home. Unfortunately, you’ll find that most agents simply cannot make such a guarantee. To help you learn more about this program and how it can make your move less stressful, a FREE special report has been prepared entitled “How to Avoid Getting Stuck with Two Homes”. To hear a brief recorded message about how to order your FREE copy of this report call toll-free 1-888-302-3341 and enter 2489. You can call any time, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Get your free special report NOW to find out how to guarantee the cash sale of your home.

Loudoun - Every month, thousands of homeowners are faced with the stressful dilemma of whether to buy first or sell first. You see, if you buy before selling, you could run the risk of owning two homes. Or, just as bad, if you sell first, you could end up homeless. It’s what insiders in the industry call the Real Estate Catch 22, and it’s an extremely anxious position to find yourself in.

found majority support. Proclamations now will also be given out ahead of the council’s bimonthly business meetings. The proclamations will be presented at 6:30 p.m., and the regular business meeting will begin as usual at 7 p.m. Councilman Ron Campbell, who put forward that change, noted that most community groups or individuals who are being presented with proclamations leave after the presentation anyway, so beginning presentations earlier makes sense. Campbell also found support for a change mandating that council members vote on proclamations two weeks ahead of the business meeting at which they will be presented. Current practice allows any council member to put forward a proclamation with no need for majority support or the support of any other member. Other changes endorsed include that each proclamation must have a sponsor, either a council member or, in the case of a staff-initiated proclamation, the town manager. The name of the person or group that the proclamation is being presented to must be listed, and there will be signature lines for the mayor, the proclamation sponsor, and any other council members who wish to sign. krodriguez@loudounnow.com

[ TOWN NOTES ] Goats Set to Begin Brush Work Next Week

Tuscarora Creek Antiflood Work Underway

The goats are headed to Leesburg. Beginning Monday, July 15, the town will begin using goats to control vegetation at two flood-way channels. Following public pressure, the Town Council in April unanimously voted to discontinue its use of herbicides for controlling vegetation growth. Council members decided instead to turn to the practice of using goats for clearing the growth. According to Director of Public Works and Capital Projects Renee LaFollette, goats can quickly clear plant growth and will be relatively cost effective compared to other options that were considered. A contract was awarded to Prosperity Acres, LLC, from Sunderland, MD, on June 29. Fencing will be installed over the weekend and the goats will begin clearing tall grass and weeds at Town Branch, just behind the Dry Mill townhomes, beginning Monday. Once the waterway has been cleared, the goats will be relocated to the Plaza Street flood-way, toward the end of July. Residents are asked to stay away from the goats, avoid petting or feeding them, and to keep dogs leashed at all times. Under the terms of the $53,136 year-long contract, Prosperity Acres, LLC will maintain the fencing and goats on a daily basis. Two rounds of goat trimming are expected.

A project along Tuscarora Creek to help reduce flooding of the adjoining residential properties on Shenandoah and Harrison streets is underway. The project will include the installation of storm drains to handle a 100-year storm event along with the construction of a two-to-four-foothigh wall. The stream restoration will include realignment of the channel to reduce or eliminate erosion while improving the overall health of the stream. The project will be constructed in phases, with the initial phase located upstream of the Harrison Street bridge, behind the T.W. Perry and Village Lane bowling alley properties. As of June 21, the contractor has completed the installation of erosion and sedimentation control measures. Tree clearing operations are underway and will be in process for the next few weeks. Leesburg has a “no net loss” tree replacement policy for all its capital improvement projects. Staff members will review the number and size of the trees removed to determine how many trees are needed to replace those taken down. If all of the replacement trees are not able to be accommodated within the boundaries of this project, trees will be planted in other areas of town. TOWN NOTES >> 9

And the Winner is ... The 2019 Patriot Cup, presented to the most patriotic float entry in Leesburg’s Independence Day parade, was awarded to the Sjurseth family of Lucketts. Ted and Lisa Sjurseth are well known locally for their leadership in the America’s 9/11 Foundation, which organizes large motorcycle memorial rides to the sites of the terrorist attacks. But Ted Sjurseth said their grandchildren were the driving forces behind the float, a project that involved frequent deliveries from the Amazon truck and lots of red, white and blue paint. The annual contest is judged by members of the Leesburg Daybreak Rotary Club and is sponsored by Loudoun Now.

[ TOWN NOTES ] << FROM 8 Phase two of the project will take place downstream of the Harrison Street bridge and behind the Catoctin Skate Park and Loudoun County Rescue Squad properties. This flood mitigation project will be constructed con-

School Café Program to Expand, a Bit BY ANDREW PARKER

Ms. KRISTINA BOUWEIRI

MRS. DI COOK

The 2019 Loudoun Laureates

An effort to modernize cafeterias in Loudoun schools is gaining traction, but not as quickly as hoped. The Loudoun County School Board has approved a contract worth more than $250,000 with School Nutrition Services to continue expanding the program with cafeteria updates at three county middle schools—Riverbend, Sterling and Stone Hill. However, administrators recommended continuing under a trail phase of the program until it starts to show more signs of picking up. During a Finance & Facilities Committee meeting in late June, Becky Domokos-Bays, director of the school system’s School Nutrition Services division, told School Board members that the program is “not as successful as we’d hoped” in the early going and recommended continuing the existing limited scope while collecting data “before we move on to additional schools.” Last summer, Sterling-based SNS introduced a “fast casual” approach known as Café + Teria as a pilot program at the Academies of Loudoun. The program includes an “Ignition” serving line where students can build a nutritious meal in a four-step process. The first step is selecting a grain, salad or wrap, followed by a protein of either antibiotic-free chicken, ground beef or Paneer cheese. The third choice is a topping of vegetables, cheese or sauces, and the final choice is dressing. The project at the three middle schools will include new paint schemes based around individual school colors, new

tables and chairs to “give it that commercial feel—kids are going to like that,” Domokos-Bays said. There will also be updates to kitchen areas and other elements to brighten the area and “give it a modern feel,” she said. “That’s why we call it a refresh.” She also provided an update on vending machines installed at the schools that offer healthy options. “They can pull out a salad, they could pull out a smoothie—something that would qualify as a full meal [under USDA guidelines],” Domokos-Bays said. The federal government gives grant money to the schools for the program, which is available to students who set up an account with the school system. In addition to the popularity of smoothies and wraps, there’s evidence that some students are willing to spend extra for premium items, like a Starkist tuna pouch. Domokos-Bays said the division also seeks direct feedback from students and regularly monitors consumption to modify food items based on demand. “We experiment. We ask the kids what they want,” she said. When School Board Chairman Jeff Morse (Dulles) asked about donuts, Domokos-Bays said the foods must be considered healthy to qualify for federal grant funding. School board member Debbie Rose (Algonkian) said that one of her concerns is the “feeding frenzy for prime seats” that will be created for seating within the new and updated areas. “Kids are going to be knocking at the door for their turn.” aparker@loudounnow.com

During its June 11 meeting, the board approved recommendations from its Student Support and Services Committee to adopt a new policy that combines and updates elements of two previous policies covering a student’s school status, admission

of nonresident students and required physical examinations. “The School Board shall require that parents, guardians, or other persons having control or charge of a school age child meet all admission requirements prior to a student enrolling in Loudoun County Public Schools,” the new policy states.

The admissions section also adds a section specifically related to homeless children. “If the child is identified homeless under the McKinney-Vento Homeless Education Act … and cannot provide the required documentation, the school registrar shall submit the information to the McKinney Vento liaison and enroll the child immediately. The local school McKinney-Vento designee shall work with the family to obtain required documentation in a timely manner,” Policy 8125 states. It goes on: “A student who has been placed in foster care by a local social services agency shall be immediately enrolled even if the placing social services agency is unable to produce the documents required for enrollment.” In that case, the parent or guardian must provide a written statement to verify the student’s age and that the student is eligible as well as “in good health and free from communicable or contagious disease.”

[ PUBLIC SAFETY ] Driver Faces Manslaughter Charge in Fatal Crash

is scheduled for Aug. 22 in Loudoun County District Court.

An Ashburn man has been charged with involuntary manslaughter after a single-vehicle crash Thursday night that killed a passenger in his vehicle. According to the Sheriff ’s Office, Cameron T. Prince, 30, of Ashburn, was traveling northbound on Randolph Drive toward Prentice Drive in Sterling Prince around 11:30 p.m. July 5 when he failed to negotiate a curve and crossed into the southbound lanes before running off the road, becoming airborne and crashing into a tree. Speed was cited as a factor in the crash. Tunisia S. Rasul, 31, of Ashburn, a passenger in the vehicle, was taken to Reston Hospital where she died. The road was closed for more than six hours as the Sheriff ’s Office’s Crash Reconstruction Unit conducted the investigation in consultation with the Commonwealth’s Attorney’s Office. Prince was held without bond at the Loudoun County Adult Detention Center. A preliminary hearing

Cyclist Dies from Injuries Sustained in June 1 Crash The bicyclist who was struck by a car on Sycolin Road south of Leesburg on June 1 has died from his injuries, the Sheriff ’s Office announced. The crash happened at the area between Shreve Mill Road and the Leesburg Park and Ride at 9:40 p.m. June 1. The cyclist, Jesus Walter B. Ramos-Benitez, 41, of Leesburg, was airlifted to the hospital for treatment. He died June 30. The driver of the vehicle remained on the scene. The crash was still under investigation in coordination with the Loudoun Commonwealth’s Attorney’s Office and no charges have been filed.

Hamilton Rescue Volunteer Charged with Underage Relationship A volunteer with the Loudoun County Combined Fire and Rescue System was charged last week after an investigation determined he engaged in an inappropriate relationship with a juvenile he met during his duties with the Hamilton Volunteer Rescue Squad. Jacen N. Martin, 23, of Purcell-

ville, has been charged with contributing to the delinquency of a minor and possession of child pornography. Martin was suspended June 22 after the allegaMartin tions surfaced. The charges followed an investigation conducted by the Sheriff ’s Office’s Special Victims Unit. Martin was released from the Adult Detention Center on a $2,500 secured bond.

Frye Manslaughter Case Set for November Trial A Loudoun grand jury Monday handed up an indictment charging Zachary Frye with aggravated involuntary manslaughter in the death of Lauren McDarFrye by, who was struck by his car as she walked along Morrisonville Road on Jan. 4.

A four-day trial is scheduled to begin Nov. 12 in Loudoun County Circuit Court. According to testimony during a preliminary hearing last month, Frye, 20, struck and killed McDarby as she was walking near Zion Lutheran Church just before 7:30 a.m. on Jan. 4. According to blood test results and accounts from witnesses who encountered Frye at the scene shortly after the incident, he had been drinking prior to the crash, although a DWI charge initially filed against him has been dropped. The witnesses described Frye as being emotional and, at times, violent to himself, as he struck his head against the side of the church building and against a tree on multiple occasions. If convicted, Frye could spend one to 20 years in prison.

Bomb Scare Prompts Evacuation in Sterling County deputies and the bomb squad were called to the Shell gas station on Commerce Street in Sterling on Monday evening after the discovery of an unattended suitcase next to a gas pump. The incident happened at 7:15 p.m. July 8. The area was evacuated as a precaution until the suitcase was deemed safe and was removed from the area.

Kids play in the fountains out front of One Loudoun’s Alamo Drafthouse Cinema on a weekday during their summer break.

One Loudoun Still Growing, New Businesses to Open this Summer BY PATRICK SZABO Loudoun County’s version of the Reston Town Center was a mound of dirt seven years ago and a small arrangement of four buildings five years ago. Now a cluster of more than a dozen buildings that house close to 100 shops and restaurants, One Loudoun is still far from completion, just as its #NotDoneYet hashtag suggests. The 40-acre One Loudoun downtown area opened its first businesses in 2013 and is now at 95 percent capacity of its 470,000 square feet of retail space, featuring about 20 restaurants and bars like Matchbox, Uncle Julio’s and Bar Louie, and about 60 retail storefronts like the Alamo Drafthouse Cinema, Barnes & Noble, and Trader

Joe’s. The center also features the Upper West at One Loudoun neighborhood—104 townhomes being built by Miller & Smith that feature up to 4,300 square feet of space each, along with individual 400-square-foot rooftop pied-à-terres—and the 24-townhome Uptown Row development. In the mix is also the soon-to-open City Tap Kitchen & Craft and The Lost Fox Hideaway, as well as a rebranded World of Beer that’s now called Jefferson Ale House and Kettler’s Vyne apartment community that will bring in nearly 400 residential units along with thousands more square feet of retail space to the northern section of ONE LOUDOUN >> 18

One Loudoun visitors take an evening stroll along Exchange Street, which features a Bar Louie, Uncle Julio’s, a Barnes & Noble and the newly rebranded Jefferson Ale House.

The 40-acre One Loudoun downtown area features about 80 restaurants, retail shops and other businesses housed in more than a dozen buildings.

Comstock Holding Companies is on schedule to open the Phase II expansion of the BLVD | Loudoun Station project next to the Silver Line’s Ashburn Station Metro stop by next spring. The new buildings will add 318 units to the neighborhood and place the project among the largest apartment communities in Loudoun County. BLVD Gramercy East features studio, one, one+den, two, and three-bedroom residences in a five-story building surrounding two landscaped courtyards. The residences will feature upscale culinary-inspired kitchens, SmartHome Technology and secured lobbies. BLVD Flats features 58 one, one+den, and two-bedroom residences in a five-story brick industrial-style. These residences will feature high ceilings, oversized windows, kitchens with concrete counter tops, SmartHome Technology and secured lobbies. A planned renovation of amenity spaces in Phase I of BLVD | Loudoun Station will repurpose the original leasing and management offices to create a state-of-the-art fitness facility. Additionally, the outdoor pool area will expand to include an outdoor fireplace, fire pits, cooking stations, seating and dining areas, and landscaped gardens. The original pool will be replaced with a larger pool featuring a retractable pool deck that will cover the pool when the pool is closed, allowing entire outdoor amenity space to be accessible to residents yearround.

Raguso Opens Irish Dance Academy I n t e r nationally awarded Irish Dance instructor Ariel Raguso has opened the Misneach Irish Dance A c a d e m y, Raguso which will offer classes in Ashburn, Purcellville and Inwood, WV. Raguso currently is the only Irish dance teacher in West Virginia certified as a CLRG, or An Coimisiun Le Rinci Gaelacha—a hard-earned certification that allows her students to enter competitions called feiseannas to demonstrate their skills all over the world. “I believe every student who wants to learn can achieve anything they set their mind to,” Raguso said. “Almost every aspect in Irish dance takes courage, learning a new step and performing in front of an audience. It’s not easy, but if you push yourself and try, the reward is success.” Traditionally, Irish Dance has been taught by traveling dance masters who would roam from village to village teaching dance to community members. Keeping with tradition, Misneach will offer classes in three different locations. “As the school grows, I see a strong community of dancers and families that support each other,” she said. “I would like to have a strong presence in the competitive world, but also be able to offer dancers many opportunities performing in small and large venues.” Those interested in learning more about the academy may take part in the free “Try It Out” Open House from 5-6 p.m. Friday, July 12 at the Workman Fitness Studio in Purcellville.

And they recommend the developer provide a stoplight at the intersection of Russell Branch Parkway and Northpark Drive, which the developer has not done. Commission Chairman Fred Jennings (Ashburn) said the application may take some time to work through, given its outstanding issues, but dismissed concerns from residents that it would impact their property values. He pointed to reports indicating the demand for housing units in Loudoun far outpaces the supply. “I would say that’s part of a much broader, macro event going on, but there is no shortage of need for housing of various sizes in the county,” Jennings said.

Both businesses are owned and managed by the same group and are set to open this summer. It will be City Tap’s ninth location, with two already operating in Washington, DC. While its food will blend the chef ’s personal expertise with regional traditions to create dishes like Cajun-style shrimp and grits and tangy whipped ricotta, its beer will come in the forms of IPAs, Berliner Weisses, fruited wheats and barrel-aged stouts that are “rich with variety and variation,” according to the website. “It seems like a really good, cool experience—we’re really excited about them coming,” said Lindsay Petak, the senior marketing and business development manager for RPAI, the company that manages One Loudoun’s downtown retail space. “We want them to open as soon as possible.” Just a few blocks down Exchange Street is World of Beer, or the restaurant and bar formerly known by that name.

Even more noticeable of a change in the center is the construction of the Vyne apartments, being done by the Kettler real estate development company between Endicott Drive and Sprague Drive. Expected to open in spring 2021, that project will bring in a 378 oneand two-bedroom residential unit apartment community with a stand-

alone clubhouse, a rooftop terrace, a co-working space and resident lounges, among other amenities. It will also add more than 22,000 square feet of street-level retail space along two blocks and 550 parking spaces, which will supplement the combined 1,218 parking spaces that the center’s two parking garages already provide. Adjacent to Vyne is the 1.2-acre lot where Hilton Hotels & Resorts is slated to build its TRU by Hilton, a new type of hotel that is “vibrant, affordable and young at heart” and “energetic, yet relaxing and comfortable,” according to its website. The modern hotel chain features larger lobbies, 24/7 markets and collaborative workspaces. The center will also soon see a Muse Wine Bar and an express-sized location for The Pit Stop BBQ—the same vendor that operates in the Cascades Marketplace commercial center and the Gilbert’s Corner Market on weekends. Petak said that popup would open in the former B Doughnut site by the end of the month. Petak said that RPAI is also bringing more events to One Loudoun. Those include the addition of two outdoor movie nights this fall and, in October, a Halloween-themed pet event, similar to the Pet Fiesta that the Reston Town Center held in May, and the 44th annual Virginia Wine Festival. Petak said the drive behind those additions is “to really be able to give more to the community.” “We want to be able to add more, just do more,” she said. pszabo@loudounnow.com

Wally Johnson tells Joan Wolford, the owner of the Savoir Fare catering business, about the early 20th century, hand-painted Coca-Cola advertisement on the side of the Old Furniture Factory.

Savoir Fare Preps Move into Furniture Factory BY PATRICK SZABO It’s been used to manufacture furniture, educate children, sell groceries, illegally sell alcohol, create woodwork and host bluegrass concerts. Now, Round Hill’s Old Furniture Factory is preparing to become the town’s only true take-out dinner option. On Aug. 7, Joan Wolford, the owner of the Savoir Fare catering company, plans to close on the purchase of the 4,400-square-foot Furniture Factory building along West Loudoun Street to run C’est Bon by Savoir Fare—a dinners-to-go operation she previously ran out of a food truck. Wolford started that operation in 2012 by bringing the truck with her to weddings to sell late-night snacks like barbecue brisket sliders and petite chicken and waffles.

More recently, she’s been operating it out of the parking lot at her building across the street from the Furniture Factory from January to mid-March. Once the Furniture Factory sale goes through, Wolford will begin converting the front section of the building, a space she’s dubbed “The Square,” into a lobby-like area where residents can stop in to pick up their favorite Savoir Fare catered-foods, which will still be prepared in Wolford’s 2,500-squarefoot kitchen across the street. Those include a local apple and bleu salad with Wolford’s famous balsamic vinaigrette, smoked beef brisket au jus and Savoir Fare’s signature fried chicken. Wolford is hoping to open up shop by the end of the year but realizes opening might be closer to the first few weeks in January. “That’s pretty set in

my mind,” she said. Wolford said her idea to open the dinners-to-go storefront arose years before Wally Johnson put the building up for sale in 2017. She said that originally, she tried to convince Johnson to install a kitchen in the building, since he owns the Round Hill Design Studio—a high-end kitchen sales and installation company established in 1988. “He didn’t take that bait,” Wolford said. She also looked at purchasing another property in town to open C’est Bon, but backed out of that deal upon realizing it would have cost her too much to add in the required parking. Once Johnson put the property on the market, Wolford said her desire to FURNITURE FACTORY SALE >> 22

Snyder Resigns from Hamilton Town Council BY PATRICK SZABO After serving for nearly three decades on the Hamilton Council, Michael Snyder has stepped down. Snyder, 71, said he and his wife would be moving to a retirement community just outside of Philadelphia by the end of summer to be closer to their grandchildren. His final council meeting was June 10, when Mayor David Simpson presented him with a 1910 Illinois pocket watch. Simpson noted that the timepieces were made with so much pride that their manufacturers put their initials on the inside workings to keep from tarnishing the outside, much like how Snyder worked for the town the past 29 years, “tirelessly,

behind the scenes.” “I will miss Hamilton. I will miss Loudoun County,” Snyder said. “The second Monday of the month will never be the same for me.” Snyder’s time on the Hamilton Town Council began when he was elected in May 1990. He said he ran for the spot because he was concerned about the town’s well system and wanted to find ways of providing fresh water to residents. Since then, he’s helped work out a deal with the county to provide water to Kenneth W. Culbert Elementary School and Harmony Middle School and develop two new wells that are SNYDER RESIGNS >> 22

Residents have until 5 p.m. Monday, July 15 to submit their design for the town’s LOVE sign, which will be permanently installed on the Town Square. The town is looking for submissions that depict a LOVE sign that is 12-16 feet wide by 5-7 feet tall that promotes Lovettsville’s unique character. Part of the nearly 50-year-old “Virginia is for Lovers” brand, the town’s sign will be one of more than 100 located in towns across Virginia, two of which are in Loudoun— one in Leesburg and another in Purcellville. Submissions should be formatted as a PDF, titled LastName_ FirstName.pdf and include an image of the design, proposed fabrication methods and budget, which should not exceed $4,500.

Water Meter Replacement to Begin in August The Town of Lovettsville recently hired Frontline Inc. to remove all water meters and replace them with more accurate wireless read meters. That project will begin in early August and should take up to two months to complete. The new meters will allow the town staff to better monitor residents’ water usage and alert them when it identifies abnormal usage. Currently, leaks are often not detected until the end of the threemonth billing cycle and result in high consumption rates and utility bills. The town is advising residents that the new meters will be more accurate, which means that some residents might notice an increase in their water usage because some older meters might

Historical Society to Host Talk on Production Innovators The Lovettsville Historical Society will host a talk entitled “Making Something out of Nothing: Geniuses of the Frontier—James Rumsey and John H. Hall” at 2 p.m. Sunday, July 14 at St. James United Church of Christ off East Broad Way. The talk, presented by Jefferson County historian Jim Surkamp, will focus on Hall and Rumsey’s accomplishments in modernizing steam turbine and production technology that revolutionized the ways in which products across the world were made—a process later dubbed “the American factory system.” Rumsey, a blacksmith and millwright from the late 1700s, showed how a steam engine could propel a boat along the Potomac River. A few decades later, Hall harnessed water power to mass produce single-shot, breechloading rifles and landed a federal contract to produce 1,000 of them at the Harpers Ferry Arsenal in the early 1800s. That production system was applied to sewing machines, then bicycles and cars, like Henry Ford’s assembly line.

Furniture Factory sale << FROM 20 purchase it grew and she realized that she wouldn’t be happy if someone else bought it and opened a restaurant there before she could. Johnson said he felt that Wolford would be the “perfect purchaser” even before he listed it for sale. Throughout the past two years, he’s received a handful of offers that were lower than expected. Savoir Fare has been in operation in the town since 1999. In 2009, Wolford even opened a full-service restaurant in her building, which sits at the corner of West Loudoun and Main Streets. She closed that in 2013 once her catering business grew so much that a single kitchen for it and the restaurant wasn’t sufficient. Wolford now caters 135 weddings and 75 other jobs annually and is at capacity with her existing equipment, kitchen space and staffing. While Savoir Fare has been a staple in Round Hill for years, the Furniture Factory has been a landmark in the town for much longer. The Howell Brothers Furniture Emporium built the factory in the mid-1880s and operated there for the next decade. For a year in 1911, the building served as the location of the Old Round Hill School when the schoolhouse on Church Street burned down. It was later used as a grocery store, a tin shop and, during Prohibition

in the 1920s, as a speakeasy. In 1985, Johnson and his business partner purchased the property to operate American Woodcrafters, which they ran until 1998. In 2001, Johnson’s daughter Hope Hanes, an elementary school art teacher, helped to launch the Round Hill Arts Center, which moved to Hill High Orchards in 2009. It was then that Johnson moved his Round Hill Design Studio into the building. Since 2004, the Furniture Factory has also been home to the monthly Bluegrass Jam—a Friday night jam session in which musicians bring their instruments and strike up with others. Johnson said those jam sessions have, at their peak, brought in up to 250 people and generated $2,200 in one night, which

has benefited Genesis International, a nonprofit that supports pre-school education and health programs for orphans and vulnerable children in Africa. Johnson said the jams have welcomed the likes of Ben Eldridge, The Seldom Scene’s former banjo player; Dick Smith, a former banjo player with The Country Gentlemen; and Tara Linhardt, a mandolin player with Bluegrass Collusion. After visiting the jam session for a first time in several years June 28 and meeting musicians and organizers, Wolford said she’s motivated to continue hosting the events—a resolve Johnson said the bluegrass jammers would find to be “music to their ears.” “These people were tugging at our heart strings,” Wolford said about her time at the jam last month. “We’re willing to entertain this just with a few minor tweaks.” Aside from preparing for closing on the property, Wolford said she’s also prepping to paint the interior, is looking at possibly paving the parking lot and is generally getting Savoir Fare ready for a C’est Bon move across the street. She feels she has another decade of “really good energy” before beginning to think about retirement. “I think this is a really good investment and a fun project for me for the next 10 years,” she said. “This I know I can do.” As for Johnson and his kitchen design company, he said he would work a bit out of his home, but mostly retire come August. “It’s been a good run,” he said.

“extremely productive.” “I have enjoyed my time on the town council,” he said. “It’s been good. It’s been good to work with the people in town.” Snyder is the third longest serving council member among any town in Loudoun—serving six years fewer than Hamilton Town Councilman John Unger, who was elected in 1984, and two years fewer than Round Hill Councilwoman Mary Anne Graham, who has served for 31 years on the dais, although not consecutively. Graham was elected in 1984, lost the Town Council election in 1988, lost the mayoral election in 1990, and was elected back to the council in 1992 and has been serving ever since. The Hamilton Town Council is considering five candidates to fill Snyder’s seat. Those are Planning Commissioner Catherine Salter, Board of Zoning Appeals members Mattias Caro and James Bourne, Century 21 Realtor Judy McHenry and Robert Beach, a new town resident. Simpson said the council would meet Monday, July 15 to interview those candidates and make a selection. The appointed individual will serve on the council until a special election is held in May 2020. The winner will fill the spot for the remainder of the term, which expires in June 2022.

Loudoun Celebrates Butterflies and Moths BY JAN MERCKER It’s mid-summer, and that is lepidoptera season in Virginia. Loudoun’s conservation groups have some cool programming coming up this summer to celebrate butterflies and moths. The Izaak Walton League’s Moth Night returns for its second year July 20, while the Loudoun Wildlife Conservancy holds its 23rd annual Butterfly Count Aug. 3. Paul Kreingold, conservation director for the Izaak Walton League’s Loudoun County Chapter, has some thoughts on our collective fascination with winged insects. “With butterflies, they’re beautiful and with moths, they’re mysterious. It’s just like with bats—they’re denizens of the night,” Kreingold said. The chapter’s Moth Night returns Saturday, July 20 and features two entomological rock stars. David Adamski, a retired Smithsonian entomologist and one of the country’s leading authorities on micro-moths, is joined by Dana DeRoche, curator of the Smithsonian’s spider collection for a two-day celebration of mysterious moths and other insect life. The event, geared toward both adults and children, features a talk from Adamski and De Roche about insect adaptations and tackles the question, “Why are insects so successful?” Then

the scientists and their team will help set up insect traps around the 88-acre campus. “You hang a light and then you wait,” Kreingold said. “I was amazed the first time—you get everything from these huge four-inch Dobsonflies to the tiniest little things and everything in between, a whole myriad of moths and all kinds of bugs.” Last year’s Moth Night drew around 70 participants, including local moth enthusiasts and students from the Washington DC Young Entomologist Group, which Adamski leads. On Friday, July 18, Adamski will lead a smaller event at the chapter’s headquarters for lepidoptera enthusiasts explaining how to kill, spread and display butterflies and moths like museum curators. For Kreingold, a longtime nature enthusiast, the annual event, along with other chapter programming on insects, is a way to help non-professionals get a closer look at the natural world. “There are so many things we see every day and we know nothing about,” he said. Another up close and personal look at Loudoun’s insect world comes every year on the first Saturday in August at the Loudoun Wildlife Conservancy’s annual butterfly count.

Che Apalache Melds Bluegrass, Latin Styles Fleck are equally invested in the success of the end product, Troop said. “We’re all equally excited to see what’s going to happen with this album,” he said. “He’s happy with it from the production standpoint, and we as musicians are really happy about it.”

BY ANDREW D. PARKER Che Apalache is bringing its blend of Appalachian bluegrass and Latin music to Round Hill’s B Chord Brewing Company on Saturday. Led by Joe Troop, the four-piece band stops in Loudoun with momentum at its back leading into next month’s release of a new album, “Rearrange My Heart,” that was recorded and produced by banjo icon Bela Fleck, who is best known for his bluegrass jams with New Grass Revival and Béla Fleck and the Flecktones. Troop describes Che Apalache’s musical fusion as an “interesting look at the globalized world through a bluegrass lens.” Raised in the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains before travelling across Europe then living in Japan, Troop immigrated to Argentina in 2010 and began teaching bluegrass music. Nine years later, he’s part of an up-andcoming band that features three Latin American musicians—Franco Martino on guitar, Martin Bobrick on mandolin and Pau Barjau on banjo. Bobrick and Martino are from Argentina, and Barjau is from Mexico. Early this year, Che Apalache recorded the new album with Fleck at the controls, followed by a spring tour along the East Coast, through the Midwest and out to California. The B Chord Brewing Company show on July 14 is part of the band’s summer tour, with shows mostly in the Mid-Atlantic and stops in Kansas, Missouri and Colorado before commemorating the official release of the new album Aug. 9 in Sandpoint, ID, opening for the Avett Brothers. “There’s some good stuff happening as far as big stages and big festivals this summer,” Troop said. The performance at B Chord will include new songs, including from Rearrange My Heart, he noted. “We’re still producing new material, too. A lot of the stuff we’re doing hasn’t been heard by audiences yet.”

Musical Melting Pot

Béla’s Tones It’s a special experience working with a luminary such as Fleck, who Troop described as a “childhood hero,” adding that while many people know of Fleck’s accomplishments as a musician, “first and foremost, he’s a masterful producer.” The first time he met Fleck was an unbelievable experience for Troop and Che Apalache band members. “It quickly becomes a new reality, and in that new reality we learned a lot of tricks of the trade, and got some good advice,” he said. Troop praised Fleck’s leadership during the recording and pre-production stages. “He understood the timeline,” Troop said. “We had to work our butts off and he was crucial in organizing how we went through the process.” The band also appreciated how Fleck gave thoughtful insights on where to polish up the songs without trying to over-influence the music or steer it in a different direction. “He didn’t make any drastic changes, but he made a lot of subtle changes and suggestions,” Troop said. “He knows how to lead a band and he knows how to get a band sounding good.” Fleck “left his mark on the music,” Troop said. “He would never give answers or say, ‘Here’s what you need to do,’ instead he’d say, ‘Why don’t you try this?’ He led us in interesting ways, and that’s reflected in the album.” The members of Che Apalache and

While most of the band originates from outside the U.S., Troop has ties to Virginia, growing up in Galax and meeting people from Loudoun in his early years. Free Dirt Records, the record label releasing Rearrange My Heart, is based in Washington, DC, and the band’s most-visited area in the states is the capital region, in part because Baltimore-Washington Airport offers the cheapest rates on flights from Argentina. Living together in Buenos Aires has helped the band keep the ideas fresh and flowing. Troop described the band’s creative process, which involves a lot of throwing ideas out onto tables. “When we rehearse it sounds like a bunch of grunting and confusion, until we somehow just get it all together,” he said. Band members will bounce ideas around and Troop will guide the composition, a process that has gotten much less laborious after playing together and touring for years. “The real trick is being able to keep it cool on a personal level so that we can work artistically,” he said. “It’s just getting along with each other and checking your ego at the door. Because everyone’s got one. We all know we’re assholes. If there’s one member of the band that doesn’t know that, we’re going to have problems.” Over the years, the bonds have grown stronger, he said. “We’ve cultivated a lot more respect for one another, and that’s really cool. On a human level, that’s one of the most amazing accomplishments of this band is how we’ve grown to understand one another as people. And if there’s an effort to do that, the music CHE APALACHE >> 27

By the time each performance is over, Che Apalache hopes they provided audiences with an “entertaining show,” Troop said. “We’re showmen. Our goal is to make people go through a wide range of emotions. We try to make them cry, make them laugh, make them shout.”

The band’s material also includes traditional southern mountain gospel acapella singing. “It’s a bluegrass ensemble but we’re doing contemporary world music,” Troop said. “A lot of people are surprised by the kinds of audiences we get, people from a lot of different cultures. We draw from a lot of different sects of humanity.”

Buggy << FROM 24 experts to count butterflies at multiple locations within a 15-mile count circle centered in Waterford. For the past three years, retired Smithsonian butterfly curator and avid butterfly enthusiast Anne Ellis has run the count. Last year, 80 volunteers counted around 3,000 butterflies of nearly 50 species, Ellis said. This year, Ellis is looking for counters of all ages, along with experienced group leaders to help volunteers identify the butterflies they spot. “It’s not only how many butterflies we see but how many species we see, as well,” Ellis said. The count usually identifies around 50 species, but last year, one of Ellis’ favorite species, the Pipevine Swallowtail, was mysteriously absent on count day, even though Ellis and others had spotted them around the county in the weeks before the count. “It’s a snapshot,” Ellis said, but, in general, the more counters who show up, the more butterflies the group is able to count. The annual snapshot does give a good idea of prevalent species in our area, and the group shares its data with the North American Butterfly Association. Ellis, who ran live butterfly exhibits at Montgomery County’s Brookside Gardens and the Smithsonian’s Museum of Natural History, retired to the

Between The Hills neighborhood in northwest Loudoun a few years ago, and one of her favorite spots for butterfly watching is the beloved Butterfly Alley at the Blue Ridge Center for Environmental Stewardship near her home. For Ellis, the count is a way to access valuable information and also expose families to the rich diversity of butterflies in Loudoun. While the craze for Monarch waystations is positive, she said there are plenty of other species who thrive in other habitats. Ellis is passionate about swallowtails and other butterflies who lay eggs on different plants. “[The Monarch] is a poster child,” Ellis said. “We’re not paying attention to what other butterflies need. … We need to think about habitat generally.” jmercker@loudounnow.com

The Town of Leesburg will conduct controlled flushing of water mains throughout the Town beginning June 1 through November 30th, 2019. This preventative maintenance program is essential for maintaining the Town’s high standards of water quality. Water mains are flushed by opening fire hydrants and allowing them to flow freely for a short period of time. The flushing cleans out sediment, removes air which may accumulate in the water mains and restores chlorine levels in areas of limited use, thereby, reducing the potential for bacteriological contamination. Water is safe to drink and safe to use during flushing. However, flushing may result in temporary discoloration and sediment in the water. If discoloration or sediment is evident, the Town recommends residents avoid doing laundry until the discoloration subsides. Flushing may also introduce air into the water, which may temporarily cause erratic flow. Some residents and businesses may experience lower pressure during the flushing in their neighborhood. The Town regrets any inconvenience the flushing operation may cause. Please call the Utilities Department at 703-737-7075 for further information. For after-hour emergencies, call the Leesburg Police Department at 703-771-4500. 07/11/19 06/13/19

TOWN OF LEESBURG

Town of Leesburg Continues Water Valve Exercise and Maintenance Program Public Notification The Town of Leesburg is continuing a preventative maintenance program to protect the longevity and operation of the water system infrastructure and valves. This consists of a valve exercise program, which requires closing, then opening each main line valve and service line valves in specific distribution areas. The purpose of the program is to exercise main line valves throughout the distribution system to assure reliable operation and maintain water quality. During this program crews will exercise the valves by operating the valve through a full cycle and returning it to its normal position. Where valves are exercised, a fire hydrant will be flowed to ensure that the water in the main remains clear. During the valve turning exercise customers may experience some sediment or discolored water for a short period of time. Water is safe to drink and safe to use during this period. If this condition is noticed we recommend running several cold water taps at full force for a period of 1-2 minutes which should remove any discoloration from the water. It may be necessary to repeat this process after 30 minutes in some cases. In addition, the closing and opening of valves may introduce air into water lines which can cause temporary erratic water flow. The valve exercising will occur June through November during the hours of 7:00am – 2:30pm, Monday through Friday. The Town regrets any inconvenience the maintenance program may cause. If you have any questions regarding our valve exercising program, or have any concerns about water quality, please call the Utilities Department at 703-737-7075. For after-hour emergencies, please call the Leesburg Police Department at 703-771-4500. 07/11/19

[ OPINION ]

July 11, 2019

Opportunities for Success Watching the slow dilapidation of any historic structure can be painful; the hurt can be more severe when it is the idle hands of government allowing time and weather to take their damaging toll unabated. In the Loudoun County government’s inventory, there are a couple of disturbing examples. The former Arcola School and the Aldie tavern are among the significant structures that have suffered severely while under county ownership. Other properties in the government’s inventory arrived there as a safety net of last resort, presumably safe from the bulldozer but with no clear future. There are success stories, too. The county’s taxpayers have poured millions of dollars into preserving and renovating important historic assets that continue to serve the community. And nonprofits and other agencies have made significant contributions. The Lucketts Community Center, the E.E. Lake Store in Bluemont, the Waterford Old School, the Aldie Mill, the Mt. Zion Church and Hillsboro’s Old Stone School all serve as examples of what is possible. The Heritage Commission’s proposal to allow private citizens or companies to take on the stewardship role for some of the unused county properties sets the stage for additional successes. The arrangements should advance the core goals of preserving these irreplaceable resources without diverting huge sums of public dollars from other pressing construction priorities—schools, park facilities and, unfortunately, state roads among them. Just a few weeks ago, this Board of Supervisors was threatening to pull its property from the core of an historic district—an action its members certainty would have viewed as appalling if proposed by a developer. After abandoning that poorly-conceived strategy and now supporting this innovative concept, a measure of faith has been restored that the county leadership isn’t really prepared to abandon a fundamental value that has shaped the Loudoun of today—that we will not entirely pave over our past.

[ LETTERS ] Far Reaching Impact Editor: Did you know that Data Center Alley in Loudoun County creates environmental racism in Buckingham County? Hard to believe, but here’s the connection. Dominion Energy uses the data center boom to justify building the unneeded, unnecessary Atlantic Coast Pipeline. The ACP requires the Buckingham Compressor Station to push fracked gas through huge pipes. The proposed BCS site is in the geographic heart of Virginia: the Freedmen founded community of Union Hill, a rural community comprised of primarily African American households of the elderly and children supported by incomes less than the Virginia average. For the past five years, diverse residents of Union Hill have united to rise up to protect their land, air, water, way of life, and health. Pastor Paul Wilson, of the Union Grove Baptist Church, is one of the most outspoken pipeline critics. He is a central figure for community meetings, Circles of Protection gatherings, and anti-pipeline events. The ACP has been called the Keystone XL Pipeline of the East. Union Hill has been referred to as “Standing Rock.” In an article, Pastor Paul is quoted, “Everybody in Southside Virginia knows who this preacher is. It was simply because I’m doing what watchmen are supposed to be doing: crying out, just being a voice in the wilderness.” Ella Rose, 74, lives only 150 feet from the property line of the proposed BCS. When Ella retired to Union Hill, she was captivated by the turkey, deer, and other wildlife. Now, she worries about her quality of life, tree loss, toxic air pollution, well water contamination, and potential explosions. Noise from the BCS will be like a jet plane flying overhead. Ella will withstand it 24/7, 365 days of the year. A study determined that exposure to noise as well as toxic chemicals (regularly spewed

to the air during routine maintenance) pose a significant public health concern for those living nearby compressor stations. Ella said, “I believe now that this community was chosen because we are predominantly African American. … They assume we won’t speak up. … Lives of Union Hill matter too, and they should not be sacrificed for financial gain.”. Ruby and John Laury moved to Union Hill for the “clean air, clean water, green land, and no stress.” The Laurys are farmers and ranchers who depend on healthy land. Mrs. Laury is concerned about the impact of the compressor station on ranchers, milk farmers, property values, and air quality. Explosions from fracked gas pipelines create extensive hazard zones. According to Penn State pipeline safety chart, the ACP impact blast/incineration zone extends 1,000 feet, close to ¼ of a mile, on both sides of the pipeline centerline. Anything and anyone in this zone will be “incinerated.” No wonder the community, many environmental and legal allies are fighting tooth and nail to stop ACP. Regrettably at the end of June, the State Corporation Commission approved Dominion’s Integrated Resource Plan, including the ACP and the BCS. Dominion customers will foot the bill for building the ACP and the BCS with $29.37 added to each Dominion customers’ bill, every single month. Dominion Energy shareholders will enjoy the guaranteed 15 percent profit of the cost to build the ACP and BCS. What happens in Loudoun does not stay in Loudoun.

Farm signs << FROM 3 tions to provide more permanent signs for rural businesses, most of which the county’s attorneys have advised them would be unconstitutional. During the June 18 meeting of the board’s Transportation and Land Use Committee, Director of Planning and Zoning Alaina Ray told supervisors there is actually already a fix available—”the issue at hand is who pays for that.” Sign Development Plans allow business owners to work with the county to develop special rules for their business when the normal sign ordinances don’t work. If a business owner has a sign out of compliance, enforcement action is stayed once they file a Sign Development Plan application and while it is in progress. The plans are commonplace around Loudoun’s major commercial projects and town center developments like One Loudoun. But the fee to apply is $5,120. Supervisors on the committee supported a staff proposal to explore a grant program for marketing rural businesses—which could help those businesses pay the fee for a sign development plan. It would be a county grant to help pay for a county fee, but Deputy Director of Planning and Zoning James David pointed out there are already policies for fee waivers on the books for which those businesses may not qualify.

the very large majority of us, with tuition, room and board skyrocketing to upwards of $80,000 a year. The constant conflation of financial need, low-income, and race is taxing. In this crowded field of students who have a financial need to attend college, this student’s scholarships are presented differently. And why? Not because she’s low-income (she happens not to be), but because she falls outside of the writer’s norm, where merit is associated with the white, and at least, the so-called middle-class. If white and middle-class, no label is needed—it’s the standard by which others are compared. But, God forbid, you fall outside the norm. The scholarship is no longer an academic scholarship, it’s instead a scholarship for high-achieving and low-income students. The decision is made to call attention to the perceived distinction. And although it happens often, it’s

“This is temporary,” said Supervisor Ron A. Meyer Jr. (R-Broad Run). “We don’t need to create super dense criteria. If you’re bringing a sign development plan, and you’re a business, you get an incentive to cover the fee until we get this [zoning ordinance amendment] done. Tada!” “I don’t know if there’s any option other than what Mr. Meyer just said that keeps us out of court,” agreed County Chairwoman Phyllis J. Randall (D-At Large). The committee voted unanimously, 5-0, to direct the staff to pursue that idea. If the full Board of Supervisors approves that idea, a report is expected back in September. County planners expect to update the county’s sign ordinance as part of a comprehensive overhaul of the county’s zoning ordinances, following last month’s adoption of a new county comprehensive plan. That process is expected to take years. The county’s sign ordinance may also already be difficult to defend in court. Earlier in their term, supervisors oversaw an update to the regulations on temporary yard signs in reaction to a court ruling that found regulating signs for political campaigns differently than other signs was unconstitutional. “We do have what could be perceived as many sign content-based issues embedded in our ordinance, and we do need to look at the entirety of the ordinance,” Ray said. rgreene@loudounnow.com

“The 18-year old senior will graduate Friday with $800,000 in college scholarships—much of it from programs for high-achieving, low-income students—to cover her costs at Yale University.” An accomplished high school senior, school and community activist, and soon-to-be Yale freshman was offered more than $800,000 in scholarships. Yet, this is the description sent to the community to capture Iman’s senior moment. Low-income: another label and the coded elephant in the room. And despite being an exceptional student with parents, a nurse and pastor supporting her at every turn, Iman’s story was hijacked by limited perspective. The same perspective that reduces exceptional to mediocre, good to okay but catapults immaturity to criminal. Sadly, I’m rarely surprised when these labels are referred to as harmless—justified, deserving, or written off entirely (i.e., “I’m sure he/she didn’t mean anything by it.”). I understand that we are all at different places in our inclusive journey. Still, I’ll use this opportunity to appeal to those who already give a damn—those already engaged enough to seek answers, delve deeper, support and move forward. Though, I may understand the distance in where we are, I don’t accept stalled progress. And here is a blaring distinction, far from a harmless description or a subtle mention, inserted to shift the focus from merit to need. When this young lady deserves to be proud of her achievement (without encumbrances), she instead must navigate senseless marginalization and, incidentally, an erroneous “low-income” descriptor, which also happens to be false. Here’s news: College costs are a challenge for

such a ridiculous practice and grounded in the falsehoods of superiority. And even as universities like hers—Yale—respond to the rising cost of tuition and the stagnating cost of family incomes by offering full tuition to families earning less than $125,000 annually, there remains this insatiable appetite for labels. Time-out and on to what matters. Iman: Continue advancing your strength-in-difference paradigm. Be driven by your own curiosity and awareness and engaged by those who seek to grow. Invite discussion without feeling the need to defend who or where you are. And, in your own way, call out those and the language attempting to reduce you, your merit, your value. Even as pervasive myths urge you to abandon what sets you apart, be reminded that everyone you know is flawed and perfectly imperfect. There is zero obligation to play into an imposed model-minority myth. And as you navigate among students of varying character and from homes of varying stability, see both the strengths and weaknesses of others, while standing as your own measure. And for the rest of us, though this was written with Iman in mind, the plea is to all students and families symbolic of her and families like hers— like mine—who navigate this space differently. And to our trusted partners. Authenticity serves as our most forceful activism that allows us to improve the design of our evolving world. This truth is self-evident. Congratulations, Iman.

For the Misrepresented When Labels are Too Much

Trump Twitter Ruling Cites Loudoun Case BY RENSS GREENE A federal appeals court’s ruling that President Donald J. Trump may not block people on Twitter cites a precedent-setting lawsuit against Loudoun County Chairwoman Phyllis J. Randall (D-At Large) decided earlier this year. A three-judge panel from the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit ruled unanimously Tuesday that because Trump uses his Twitter account for government business—often announcing policy, arguing politics or haranguing other users and world leaders to his nearly 62 million followers—he cannot block other Twitter users from accessing his social media feed. He had been sued after doing so. Included in the 29-page opinion is a mention of Davison v. Randall, the federal case in which Randall was sued for blocking Brian Davison from her “Chair Phyllis J. Randall” Facebook page, where he had posted allegations of conflicts of interest by School Board members and their

Historic properties << FROM 1 Supervisor Matthew F. Letourneau (R-Dulles). He also added that there are some properties held by the county that he does not believe are historically significant. “As long as they’re going to do this, let’s really kind of dive into these questions and talk about some of these things and talk about what things were important to Loudoun County and different communities in Loudoun County and why, and talk about the difference between what the Commonwealth [of Virginia] calls an historic piece of property versus what people in Loudoun might think is historic.” Board Vice Chairman Ralph M. Buona (R-Ashburn) welcomed the opportunity for private citizens and organizations to step up, referencing the recent controversy over county plans to build a new fire station next to an old tavern building in Aldie. “Some of these groups that are very vocal need to sometimes step up with some responsibility and say, ‘we can

tion,” wrote Judge James A. Wynn, Jr. in the court’s ruling. “Put simply, Randall unconstitutionally sought to ‘suppress’ Davison’s opinion that there was corruption on the School Board.” Subsequently, Randall said comments would no longer be allowed on that page at all, although today they are. The case drew national attention as one of the first to delve into murky First Amendment questions online, and in their ruling, the three-judge panel in Randall’s case also contemplated—but did not answer—other quandaries, such as conflicts between First Amendment protections against government censorship online and the possibly stricter content regulations of the private online forums being used. “We are disappointed with the court’s decision and are exploring possible next steps,” Department of Justice spokesperson Kelly Laco said in a statement after the Trump ruling.

families. Randall deleted the post and blocked him to prevent him from making additional postings. She then unblocked him the next day. Another federal appeals court reached the same decision in that case, affirming a lower court’s ruling that Randall was acting “under color

of state law” in running that Facebook page, in deleting Davison’s comment and in banning Davison from the page. “Randall’s decision to ban Davison because of his allegation of governmental corruption constitutes black-letter viewpoint discrimina-

put together a foundation, we can do some fundraising,’” Buona said. “If it’s really that important to you to save it, then try to step up and be part of the solution, and not just complain to us that the taxpayers aren’t saving it.” Supervisors voted 7-0-2, with supervisors Kristen C. Umstattd (D-Leesburg) and Ron A. Meyer Jr. (R-Broad Run) absent. A resident curator program proposal is due back to supervisors by November. The proposal started with the Loudoun County Heritage Commission. Commission member Lori Kimball, who chairs a subcommittee on maintaining county-owned historic properties, said Loudoun’s program would reflect Fairfax County’s lead. “Many people love historic buildings and love living in them, and would enjoy doing that work,” Kimball said. “It becomes kind of a labor of love, and feeling like you’re really saving this structure for future generations.” Fairfax adopted its resident curator program in 2014, offering long-term leases to tenants who agreed to rehabilitate and maintain those historic properties. In Fairfax, resident curators agree to a pre-determined re-

quirements and standards for a property, and as long as they fulfill their contractual obligations, pay no rent. “Everything is all felt out ahead of time, and the guidelines by which the curator or the caretaker has to adhere,” Kimball said. “So, sometimes there might be historical materials that need to be used, other times perhaps not—that’s all laid out ahead of time for each individual property. The curators are responsible for the costs of rehabilitation, maintenance, and utilities. They can be individuals, nonprofits, or even for-profit entities. And while the properties are often homes, Kimball said the curator could be a business, too. Kimball said the idea arose during discussions of the Aldie tavern, a property the county purchased with plans to build a fire station. Surrounding residents complained that historic aspects of the property would be destroyed, although the tavern itself would have been preserved. Supervisors eventually found another property for the new firehouse—the third they have purchased for the project, having been chased off both previous sites by neighbors’ objections. “It came up in the discussion of the

Aldie tavern and what to do with it, but it could apply to other of these county-owned properties as well,” she said. An inventory of county-owned historic properties in May 2018 counted 26 across Loudoun, ranging from the Aldie tavern to the old courthouse in Leesburg. They also include sites like the Lucketts and Philomont community centers, the Carver Center, Waterford Old Jail, Frogshackle Cottage and Lanesville House at Claude Moore Park, and the Broad Run Toll House. She said putting private curators into some of those properties could be a “win-win.” “They’re able to live in that historic property, they’re able to care for it without buying it … and it’s a win-win for the county in terms of, they’re not paying to maintain the property and do whatever kind of restoration or maintenance work needs to be done,” Kimball said. Heritage Commission county staff liaison John Merrithew declined to answer questions for this article.

After his mother died in March 2018, Moreno blamed Nancy, and later also blamed the hospital’s nurses, Faw said. Nancy then moved from her Sugarland Run home to live with her brother at their mother’s house nearby. As she took control of his finances, pressed him to get a job and become more responsible, Faw said, their friction increased as Moreno continued to blame her for causing Anna’s death. On July 21, 2018, Nancy was plan-

ning to travel to Cleveland for her job at the Federal Trade Commission. Her brother was on course to drive her to Dulles Airport. They didn’t make it that far. Near the Innovation Avenue interchange, he pulled over on the shoulder and Nancy got out, taking her suitcase with her. She walked away, continuing on the shoulder toward the airport. Faw said at least two drivers passing by would testify about seeing

Moreno drive into his sister and then drive away with her suitcase dragging underneath the front of the Toyota RAV4 all the way to the area of Frying Pan Road in Fairfax County, where it was later recovered by investigators. Nancy was taken to a hospital, where she died five hours later. Moreno kept driving. He was arrested in a Maryland casino by Anne Arundel County police after investigators used cell phone pinging to find his path and location.

Hillsboro Councilman and former professional golfer Stephen Moskal putts his golf ball into hole number four at the Belmont Country Club in Ashburn.

Moskal << FROM 3 junior and senior years before heading off to Furman University in Greenville, SC to play Division 1 golf in the late ‘80s. That’s not where Moskal kickstarted his pro golf career, though. After graduation, he took a hiatus from the game, purchased a one-way ticket to France and left America to work odd jobs in Europe. But it wasn’t long before he ended up back on the green working for a golf club about 50 miles west of Paris called Le Golf du Bois d’Ô. During his time there, Moskal even designed the club’s new 18-hole course, which he said was inspired by a course in Muirfield, Scotland. On Moskal’s course, there are no two consecutive holes affected by wind in the same direction—a feature fewer golf courses are emphasizing these days. It was around that time that Moskal picked the clubs up once more, playing for nearly two seasons in France as an amateur golfer before deciding to turn pro. After competing in a Professional Golfers’ Association Qualifying Tournament, he was good enough to make the cut and add the title “professional golfer” to his résumé. Although he didn’t qualify for a spot on the PGA’s top circuit, Moskal did qualify for a spot on the French National Tour. He also played on the United Kingdom Mastercard Tour and the European Challenge Tour. In those championships, Moskal said he placed between 20th and 30th, meaning he was able to make a living solely as a professional golfer, although he said the winnings were just barely enough to get by. Moskal said that after eight years competing in those circuits, he had to make a major life decision—whether to continue trying to make it onto the PGA’s main tour or quit while he was ahead and take a different route in life. While he got close to the top level, he chose the latter option. That choice, he said, was more justified by a stress fracture in his hand that was paining him to play the game he loved. At that point, Moskal took a job as a

golf instructor near Paris for a year, then moved back to the States in 2000 to take a job as the instruction director at Fair Oaks Golf Park. Five years later, he and his colleague were tapped by Topgolf to help the company set up its first location in the U.S. in Alexandria. For the next eight years, Moskal and one other golfer helped run the company’s golf academies at its then four U.S. locations. In 2013, Moskal left Topgolf to manage Belmont’s golf academy, which he’s now doing six days a week during the summer months, teaching about 150 people throughout the year. Of those student golfers, about 25 are children signed up for weekly camps and about 15 are part of a year-round junior program. The rest are adult golfers looking to step their games up. In the past six years, Moskal has instructed more than 2,000 golfers at Belmont. From 2012-2018, Moskal also was the head coach of the Marymount University golf team. In 2016 he and his wife and two kids moved to Hillsboro from Centreville. Immediately, Mayor Roger Vance and other council members brought Moskal into the loop. “You get invited to participate in a lot of stuff quickly,” Moskal said. Two years later, he was appointed to a spot on the Town Council to fill a vacancy left by Belle Ware in February 2018. “I figured it was something that I had planned to do and made sense to get involved,” he said. Elected to the Town Council for a first time in the May 1, 2018 municipal elections, Moskal said he plans to seek re-election when his term expires in June 2022. Aside from working to help move along Hillsboro’s $22.2 million Traffic Calming and Pedestrian Safety Project and teach golf to hundreds at Belmont, Moskal periodically coaches Pornanong Phatlum, a Thai-born golfer competing on the LPGA tour. Moving forward, he’s focused on a new school he’s implementing at Belmont that centers on the mental aspect of golf, employing the help of a peak performance specialist. “That’s something I’m looking to develop,” he said. pszabo@loudounnow.com
