County Attorney announces plans to retire in February 2019

ANOVER — In a surprise announcement, County Attorney Sterling Rives told the Hanover County Board of Supervisors that he plans to retire in February of next year.

Rives informed the board in a closed session meeting earlier last week and confirmed the action with a public announcement during

the public portion of the Nov. 14 meeting.

“It’s the right time,” Rives said last week. “I’ve been considering it for some time.”

While working as an attorney in Northern Virginia in 1987, Hanover County Attorney Sterling Rives noticed an advertisement for an open position in a small county that neighbored Richmond, but, in actuality, was far removed.

After obtaining a law degree from the University of Richmond, Rives pursued

a career as an educator, but quickly found his calling as a young lawyer working a stone’s throw from Washington, D.C. That work included working with local governments on public policy issues.

But, the ad stuck in his mind and he eventually set up an interview, accepted the job, and found himself as the lead attorney for a county of about 58,000 people.

Masons honor Harper and Freeman for Fire-EMs efforts Contributed Report news@mechlocal.com MECHANICSVILLE -Mechanicsville’s Washington & Henry Masonic Lodge #344 recently paid tribute to members of Hanover County Fire-EMS. They were invited to a Lodge dinner and awards ceremony.

Chief Jethro Piland III was the guest speaker. He said his job is to work for Fire-EMS members by ensuring adequate staffing, technological enhancements, officer development and health and safety improvements.

He said Hanover is planning several major developments that would largely increase the number of residents and structures needing protection.

The county now has one staffed ladder truck, and, next budget year, the department is scheduled for a replacement. That truck will be able to reach higher than those currently operating.

One Lodge member asked which rescue squad would respond to his address. He said he wanted to go there to make a personal donation.

Piland said an ambulance from any one of several stations might arrive. His officers watch over the network of primary locations of ambulances and fire trucks.

When one area has a heavy demand, they shift resources to help keep coverage nearest the locations where they may be needed.

Due to mutual aid agreements, even fire trucks and/or ambulances from the City of Richmond or nearby counties

might respond.

Piland also noted that fire trucks often respond to medical emergencies because responders are dually qualified as firefighters and emergency medical technicians.

Every response ensures medical support if there is a shortage of medics on the ambulance. This also ensures the best possible kind of needed response available throughout the county.

The Masons also recognized Eric Harper and Garrett Freeman as Firefighter of the Year and EMS Provider of the Year, respectively.

Harper works on Ladder Company Truck 13 in Ashcake. He is described as “a dependable, hardworking role model, teaching his craft

to others, and dedicated to serving Hanover citizens.”

Freeman “puts first things first.” He was on an ambulance run during the ceremony. He is described as a leader who works to improve his craft by helping to refine EMS protocols, streamlining medical equipment, and educating medical providers.

He is on a committee that reviews current practices and provides recommendations for improving medical care to Hanover citizens. He recently taught the program for new EMT recruits with a 100 percent passing rate.

coming than relocation as Rives spent much of his childhood in Petersburg and was well acquainted with the Richmond area before returning to take the Hanover job.

“I consider myself a lifelong Richmond resident, born in Richmond and raised in Petersburg,” Rives said.

Before becoming a lawyer, Rives taught Latin, Government and History at Huguenot Academy in Powhatan, and also taught Latin at VCU. He continued to teach at VCU while attending law school at T.C. Williams, graduated and accepted the job in Northern Virginia in 1983.

“In the summer of 1987, I saw a notice for the position of Hanover County attorney,” Rives said. “I thought this would be a way to get back to the Richmond area.”

Four years out of law

school, Rives got the job and headed home.

An assignment that he assumed he would hold for four or five years turned in to a 31-year career.

“I thought I would return to private practice in the city, but the fact is, I love this job,” Rives said.

Facing and confronting a diverse group of issues and situations, Rives said the job offered the type of legal variety that made the work rewarding.

“The job is continually challenging. It’s diverse and I’ve had the opportunity to work with a lot of fantastic people,” Rives said. “I kept putting off the transition back to private practice until it became clear that wasn’t going to happen.”

In those ensuing years, Hanover has become home to Rives and his family.

“It’s a wonderful place to live with a fascinating history and residents who are quick to volunteer to benefit their com-

munities,” Rives said. “It really enforcement officers and is a remarkable place.” county employees who have made so many improvements Through 31 years of in the facilities and the serservice, Rives has observed vices provided,” Rives said. a county that has grown in As part of that team, Col. leaps and bounds, both in David R.

retirement but will certainly miss his counsel,” the sheriff said.

Although the county has changed in many ways, the slow and steady growth has allowed Hanover to maintain its traditional values.

“The Hanover County Comprehensive Plan has been successful in preserving the rural nature of the county and the agricultural industry while still providing places for new residents to live in the suburban areas,” Rives said. “Hanover county is well postured to continue its success.”

THREE DECADES OF SERVICE Rives said the diversity of his practice made coming to work each day exciting and different, and, during his tenure, he worked on a variety of issues, including civil litigation, zoning law, land acquisition, environmental law, construction, public safety and municipal finance, just to name a few.

Rives also was instrumental in dealing with the General Assembly.

“I’ve enjoyed being an advocate for Hanover County and Hanover County Public Schools and for local governments generally,” he said.

The variety of challenges enhanced Rives’ commitment to the practice.

“It’s a broad practice with lots of different specialty areas,” Rives said. “That’s a challenge but it also makes the job intriguing and continually interesting.”

During those three decades of service, Rives was involved in land acquisition deals that included Atlee and Hanover High Schools, Pole Green Park and Totopotomoy Waste Treatment Plant, the latter requiring the successful outcome of six different lawsuits filed against the county regarding that construction.

Rives also successfully

defended the county’s position in a case regarding Machinery and Tools taxes that could have cost the county $700,000 in annual revenue and had similar implications for many localities in the state.

He also negotiated a 1995 settlement with Ashland that allowed the town to annex areas for expansion but also placed the control of water and sewer with the county.

“Hanover and Ashland had water systems that were competing with each other,” Rives said. “Now, they’re whole and it operates much more effectively for everybody.”

Rives said none of those successes would have been possible without a professional team of colleagues. “I didn’t do this alone. I was part of a team of administrators and county employees, including his office comprised of five attorneys with multiple years of experience.

“I am very pleased with the excellent team of attorneys who work in this office and their many accomplishments and valuable legal services that are provided on a daily basis,” Rives said. “I am so fortunate to have been able to work with such an excellent group of attorneys.”

Rives, 67, said his retirement plans include less work and more recreation with an emphasis on the two-wheel variety of entertainment.

Rives and his wife Nancy, a history teacher at St. Gertrude’s in Richmond, plan to do more traveling, and the attorney has his eye focused on a trip he’s been planning for a long time.

“Nancy and I enjoy traveling, camping and boating and we look forward to doing more of those things in the future,” Rives said.

The couple has two grown sons, Edward and Henry.

In pursuit of that other passion, he and his son Henry see ATTORNEY, pg. 13

We still have many reasons to be thankful

Resident asks why businesses don’t decorate

By Melody Kinser Managing Editor

D

espite the sad and incomprehensible divisions we’re experiencing in our country, I’m taking the glass half full approach as we prepare to celebrate Thanksgiving.

With every day, there are many reasons to be thankful.

While many of us will be fortunate enough to enjoy a feast of holiday foods and the good company of family and friends, we need to take the time to consider how blessed we are.

There are those who question -- and worry -about the future of this nation. Rather than dwell on the negative, I think -- if only for one day -- we

celebrate the positives and how (I’d like to believe) most of us view this great land.

We are survivors. That statement is proven true over and over again as Mother Nature rolls through with disastrous consequences. Whether it’s a hurricane, torrential downpours leading to flooding, or out of control wildfires, this is when we see the best in the USA. People helping people is the common thread.

Oftentimes, they are strangers, sharing a common bond of survival and starting over.

Americans never take a defeatist stand, and we are stronger for our actions.

Being thankful crosses many paths. As children, we were taught about the Pilgrims observing

Thanksgiving with Native Americans. What an amazing event that must have been.

Let’s try to put aside any political differences tomorrow and enjoy the day and the people we will be with for Thanksgiving 2018.

Yes, there are still many reasons to be thankful, so let’s take full advantage of how we celebrate.

Here’s to family, friends and the American way of life. We need to work toward that goal of a country united again.

Remember that first Thanksgiving and the gathering of two unique groups of people. They set the example that the rest of us should follow.

We are one under the Stars and Stripes.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Entertainment of days gone by had a haunted touch

By Jim Ridolphi Contributing Columnist Even with all the high-tech devices, hand-held video games and phones that sometimes seem smarter than their owners, teenagers today don’t enjoy the same entertainment we did as adolescents.

In most cases, that’s a good thing, and the long list of activities or previous generations of teens is probably not a shining example for today’s youth.

I’m speaking of a bygone phenomenon called the haunted house.

It was nothing for a carload or two of teens to pile in a car and head to one of our local houses of horror in the Richmond area.

I missed the sad saga of the River City’s famous Blue Shingles, a once beautiful estate built on the bluffs along the James River behind the Carillon.

In the early 1960s, the abandoned mansion became the home of partying youths who nearly destroyed the

once stately home, all in an attempt to be scared out of their wits.

The home featured a bricked courtyard with octagon pool at the end of the winding road that led up to the house. It was by that very pool that Lorenzo Evans Jr. shot and killed himself on Easter Sunday 1955.

The rest is predictable, and legend had it that the unresolved war veteran’s ghost haunted the grounds. That was the initial attraction, but teenagers soon realized the estate provided an unsupervised, out of the way party

spot, the copper blue shingles long turned green.

It wasn’t the only accessible haunted venue in Richmond.

An old farmhouse near Ellerson’s Crossroads was widely known for its ghosts, and teens quickly latched on to the spot for day and night house parties.

The big old house, located near Henrico High School, held lurid tales of a butler’s murder, and a less than see HAUNTED, pg. 8

Once again, the holiday season is upon us and the Mechanicsville Rotary/Ruritan Christmas Parade will be coming through the Village of Mechanicsville.

There is always a good turnout for this parade every year.

Once again, there will be no decorations in the Village of Mechanicsville.

I only saw two or three businesses with decorations for the holidays last year.

I have been in many communities around the surrounding areas and all have decorated their towns: Ashland, Highland Springs, Sandston, Goochland, Chester, Colonial Heights, Petersburg and Hopewell, to name a few.

When people come to Mechanicsville, there is nothing. It might as well as the 4th of July.

I talked to some businesses last year and inquired about something simple such as small wreaths on poles and small holiday flags, but my request fell on deaf ears.

The tree by the Windmill used to be decorated and the lights were on every night, but that also has gone away.

I really don’t understand why no one seems interested in doing anything for “Our Town” for the holidays.

Any comments?

County’s first roundabout opens at Rural Point, Studley MECHANICSVILLE -Work on Hanover County’s first roundabout, located at the intersection of Studley and Rural Point roads near Rural Point Elementary School, is nearly complete and the roundabout is working smoothly.

The single-lane roundabout is an improvement intended to improve safety at the intersection, which had a very skewed alignment.

The construction project also includes curb and gutter improvements, drainage improvements, landscaping and additional signage.

“First and foremost, I am glad the project is complete,” said Sean Davis, chairman of the Hanover County Board of Supervisors. “I appreciate that a number of citizens have reached out to tell me that they are happy with the project. I say that because when

Of course, there were the obligatory blood droplets on the wall, and the strange sounds that always went bump in the night.

Both teens and spirits were thwarted when local police put up a chain at the entrance, and issued regular patrols throughout the property at night.

Of all the less than supernatural experiences I had as a youth, the most significant required a drive to West Point, home of the infamous “Light.”

Just outside the sleepy town, a tiny railroad crossing called Cohoke Crossroads was the scene of many a frenzied Friday night, and, on some evenings, it was difficult to find a spot to park.

The attraction was a ghostly light that traveled the tracks mysteriously at unpredictable times of the night.

The legend that accompanies this mystery is

twofold. One theory states the yellowish light is a headless railway worker searching for his lost extremity. Another explains the phenomenon as the result of a phantom Civil War train carrying wounded soldiers.

I’m not sure about the legend, and locals claim the light is the result of swamp gas reflecting off car headlights from a distant train crossing. I’m not sure.

The site is off limits now and located on private property.

As a youth, we made the drive to West Point on several late night adventures. It always scared our dates, and, quite honestly, unnerved us all.

I saw it several times, sometimes just a glimmer off the tracks and sometimes a lightninglike flash.

I’m pretty sure what I saw wasn’t a ghost, but the adventure of searching sure was exciting.

Kids today, I suppose, have better things to do than ghost bust.

But, make no mistake, the fear of the first step into a haunted house at midnight is an experience you won’t soon forget.

Of the six boys in my own family, three served in the Marine Corps during the Korean War, with one of those also serving as a physician in Vietnam for four years during the war there.

(He also adopted and raised two Vietnamese children, with one of those two children becoming a full colonel in the U. S. Army and serving as the American Attaché to Hanoi.)

Another of the boys served in the Army Reserves and two in the National Guard.

Going back further, family members served in this nation’s wars going back to and including the Revolutionary War, with one ancestor dying at Valley Forge while serving with George Washington.

It was regrettable, however, that the Confederate flag, as depicted in your article, was presented as an object of racial bigotry.

Slavery was practiced under that Confederate flag for four years, 1861 to 1865.

It was practiced under the Stars & Stripes for 87 years and that was the flag under which

a half million slaves labored within the Union states during the War Between the States.

President Abraham Lincoln deliberately did not free those Northern slaves in his Emancipation Proclamation.

Why would the North not free all of its own slaves before marching South to supposedly free the slaves there?

Because the war was not about slavery. Its cause was totally fiscal.

The South, outvoted in Congress, had been exploited for decades.

Exorbitant tariffs could no longer be tolerated by the South.

Three-fourths of the money in the Federal Treasury came from the South and threefourths of that money was spent in the North.

It is true that slaves within the Southern states were robbed of their labor without due compensation, but it must be remembered that the fruits of that labor, mainly cotton and sugar cane, was bought by the North for the purpose of making huge prof-

its with it in their Northern cotton mills and Northern distillers, without the expense of themselves housing, feeding and providing medical care for the slaves.

It begs the question: Who is the most guilty, the one who steals or the one who buys the stolen goods, knowing it is stolen and with the intent of making a hefty profit with it?

Obviously, they are both equally guilty. So why is the South alone blamed?

Ignorance against the Confederacy knows no bounds.

That slavery was the cause of the War Between the States is the greatest hoax perpetrated against a gullible American populace.

Does anyone really believe that Northerners left family, home, dependents, livelihoods, their all, to march South to offer their lives to free a people who they had never set eyes on and to end an institution that went back thousands of years!?

The Planning Department had not issued a recommendation previously, and Maloney said his staff wanted all available information before providing an opinion.

The project is in South Anna commissioner Larry Leadbetter’s district and he moved for denial, citing the inconsistencies with the county’s Comprehensive Plan.

In other matters, the commission unanimously recommended approval of a Comprehensive Plan amend-

ment creating a Healthy Living Section in the county’s blueprint.

Supervisors removed the section during the Comprehensive Plan update in February and referred the proposal to the Community Development Committee for further study and clarification.

The revised version identifies specific areas where bike and pedestrian trails are currently being utilized, areas where they are limited and areas where none exist.

Virginia now accepting applications North Anna station to hold siren test for expanded health coverage RICHMOND — Gov. Ralph Northam recently announced that, as of Nov. 1, state agencies are accepting applications from Virginia adults newly eligible for health coverage under Medicaid expansion.

“When both sides of the aisle came together earlier this year to pass Medicaid expansion, the Commonwealth set a realistic, aggressive timeline for implementation and I’m proud to report the remarkable progress we’re making on these goals in close coordination with our federal partners,” said Northam. “Virginia began accepting applications for expanded health coverage on Nov. 1. I encourage all Virginians to get acquainted with the new eligibility rules and learn how they and their family members qualify for access to quality health coverage.”

Eligible adults will begin receiving services starting Jan. 1, 2019.

The new coverage is available to men and women ages 19 through 64 who are not eligible for Medicare and who meet income requirements, which vary by family size. For example, a single adult with an annual income at or below $16,754 may be eligible for coverage.

An adult in a three-person family with a total household annual income at or below $28,677 may be eligible.

“Thousands of Virginia adults will soon benefit from a comprehensive package of health

Virginians requiring behavioral health and addiction treatment will be connected to a robust array of services. It is exciting and fulfilling to share in the joy that so many of our citizens express as they look forward to realizing their hope for better health.”

“This new coverage will help individuals across the Commonwealth like our friends, our neighbors, our caregivers, and the people we meet daily in coffee shops and restaurants,” said Dr. Jennifer Lee, director of the Virginia Department of Medical Assistance Services.

“It’s critically important that hard-working Virginians will have access to the health care they need to be productive in their jobs and to enjoy a high quality of life. I want to personally thank officials at the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services for being responsive and collaborative as we worked together on these important policy reforms.”

“This is not only historic for the Commonwealth, but also greatly significant for the thousands of human services professionals statewide who are dedicated daily to helping Virginians achieve well-being,” said Duke Storen, Commissioner of the Virginia

One more time: PH wins third state title

By Drew Flores Richmond Times-Dispatch WILLIAMSBURG — Patrick Henry’s boys volleyball team relied on its experience to outlast Great Bridge on Thursday for its third consecutive Virginia High School League Class 4 state championship.

The Patriots prevailed 25-22, 23-25, 25-20, 22-25, 15-6.

After letting a late lead get away in the fourth set, Patrick Henry (18-3) rallied around its veterans to close out the match in the fifth. Jarrett Carrano (21 kills, 13 digs, four aces and three blocks) and fellow seniors Jaxon Delgado, C.W. McIlhenny and Ronny Maier all made key plays down the stretch.

Jason Jones had 25 kills and 25 digs for the Wildcats (21-2). “[Jones] is a great player, brings a challenge every time,” Carrano said.

After taking the first set, the Patriots made a couple of late miscues in the second, allowing the Wildcats to even the match 1-1.

The Patriots fell behind early in the third set but battled back to tie the score behind back-toback kills by Delgado and Cal Inge. Patrick Henry closed out the set with a Carrano block on Jones, a McIlhenny ace and a Carrano kill.

One set away from victory, the Patriots knew it wasn’t going

“They wouldn’t really go away,” said Patrick Henry head coach Michael Townsend.

Behind strong play from Jones and Ace Backer, the Wildcats took the fourth set. It

was all Patriots in the fifth.

Carrano went on a serving run that led to 7 straight points, 2 of which he aced.

“The first one was ‘Make sure I get this in,’ but keep it aggressive,” he said, “and as it

went on, hit it harder and harder and see how much damage I can do.”

Delgado and McIlhenny each had a kill and a spiritdeflating block in the fifth set.

Maier got in on the action,

faking out everyone with what looked to be a set but redirected the pass to a quick-hitting kill.

As the final shot glanced off the arms of a Wildcats

ASHLAND – The Patrick Henry boys team has been arguably the most successful volleyball program in the state of late, winning back-to-back state championships.

With their big three of seniors C.W. McIlhenny, Jaxon Delgado and Jarrett Carrano, the Patriots are looking to finish on a high note with their third Virginia High School League state title.

The Class 4 Western Section champion Patriots (21-3) got one step closer to that goal Tuesday night, sweeping the visiting Eastern Section runner-up Heritage-Newport News 25-12, 25-9, 25-15 in the state semifinals.

The Patriots jumped out to a fast start in the first set behind a Delgado ace and see HAMMER, pg. 26

Raiders ousted by powerhouse Princess Anne

most of the second set, using a Kara Hammock middle kill for a 14-11 lead. The Cavaliers clawed back, but gave Atlee an opening with a pair of service

errors, Brianna Brown’s kill putting the Raider advantage to 19-17.

That’s where Princess Anne’s experience took over, as

a Burrows kill was the third point in the 8-0 finish of the second set.

The Cavs scored from every direction possible to clinch their berth in Friday’s state final with a 25-17 win in the third set.

Carpenter, who guided Atlee to four straight state tournament appearances from 2010 to 2013, including the 2013 Group 5A state title, has been told he’s looked more relaxed and has had more fun this season.

“My wife says it, my kids say it. I think a lot of it has to do with [how much] I do like this team,” Carpenter explained. “I like them because they’re just good kids and they want to learn how to play volleyball.”

Chayse Tyler, in her final match, registered five aces and four kills. Brianna Brown and Leah Zatorski each had 11 assists, while Hammock led Atlee with six kills, and Jada Foreman and Kaylin Strichman added five.

Every player after Tyler returns for at least two more years. A team that arrived earlier than people expected plans to return to the state tournament party.

“There’s things that we can do to be better. But they’re just fun to be with,” Carpenter said.

the results have been good,” said Carrano on his serve.

With the match in hand, several Patriot reserves got time to play.

Link Hammerschmidt and Cameron Miller made their presence felt, racking up seven kills and two aces combined.

“I love it, I love watching those guys play,” Carrano said affectionately.

A bright spot for the Hurricanes was outside hitter Terezz Lee, who had five kills in

the match.

Coach Michael Townsend and Carrano both said they liked what they saw from the reserves and that the Patriots are in good hands going forward.

“With the next 48 hours, there’s very little we can do to gain skill, athleticism, strength. ... It’s really just the mental side and once we focus in on that and minimize on errors and get small wins which will lead to a big one,” Townsend said.

By Rob Witham For the Times-Dispatch MECHANICSVILLE – When a volleyball team can come at you from every direction with the same level of intensity and accuracy, it is hard to find a weakness.

Try as they might, the young Atlee Raiders attempted to slay the giant, but Princess Anne rallied from a 19-17 second-set deficit with an 8-0 run to propel them to victory in a three-set showdown in a Virginia High School League Class 5 state girls volleyball semifinal Tuesday at Atlee.

The Raiders tested the 28-0 Cavaliers and showed that, though many did not expect them to reach make the state semifinals, Atlee deserved to be there.

“They’re a machine. They can come at you from any direction,” Atlee coach Curtis Carpenter said of the Cavaliers.

“That’s a beautiful thing to have in this game. Unfortunately, I don’t have it. At least not yet.”

The underdog Raiders, with only two seniors, battled Princess Anne point-for-point early in the first set before the Cavaliers built a lead. Whenever they needed a boost, both offensively and emotionally, they turned to senior Daria Burrows,

“Feels better than I expected,” Carrano said. “[It’s the] last time I’ll get to do that [and it] feels great. [I’m] glad I could do Daniel Sangjib Min/Times-Dispatch that with these boys.”

He noted that 275,000 square feet of commercial space has already been developed in the Winding Brook area.

County planners originally joined the 18 acres for the mixed use development with areas, including the Carter Heights residential area in the amendment request.

But, the Hanover County Planning Commission removed the additional areas last month and considered an area that included the accompanying rezoning request.

Supervisors voiced support for reinserting the Carter Heights area in the amendment request, and deferred action until a public hearing can be held with the new parameters in December.

Same Day Access to celebrate anniversary ASHLAND -- The Hanover County Community Services Board (CSB) will celebrate the one-year anniversary of its Same Day Access program with an open house event, which will be held from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Saturday, Dec. 1, at its Ashland location at 12300 Washington Highway.

Same Day Access offers walk-in hours for citizens who are seeking services for mental health, substance use, and developmental disabilities.

The program, now a year old, also

offers clients a comprehensive, clinical assessment during their initial visit as well as immediate crisis intervention when necessary.

The celebration event will offer guests an opportunity to tour Hanover’s CSB office, meet the staff, and receive information about resources available to Hanover County residents.

There also will be children’s activities and Mrs. Yoder’s Donut truck.

Following the celebration, there will be

a Revive training from 1:15 to 2:15 p.m. at the same location.

Revive training is a lifesaving tool for those who may come into contact with someone suffering from an apparent opiate/heroin overdose.
