Memorial highway dedicated to fallen trooper By Laura McFarland News Editor

POWHATAN – A lasting recognition of the sacrifice made by late Virginia State Police Special Agent Michael T. Walter is now a permanent part of Powhatan County. A large gathering of elected officials, law enforcement, family, friends and community members gathered on Friday, Oct. 26 at the Village Building to dedicate the “Trooper Michael T. Walter Memorial Highway.” The state has dedicated a portion of Route 13 between Route 1002 (Emmanuel Church Road) and the Cumberland County line in the trooper’s honor marking it with signs along the way. Walter, who lived in Powhatan, was an 18-year veteran of the state police

who was fatally shot in the line of duty on May 26, 2017, in Richmond. Steps were taken earlier in 2018 at the local and state levels to make sure there was a visible reminder put up to remember him and his sacrifice. The dedication ceremony included several special speakers talking about Walter not only in relation to his ultimate sacrifice but the life he lived and the lasting impact he made in his 45 years on this earth. One of the last to speak but also the most poignant was Walter’s wife, Jamie Walter, who honored her husband’s memory but also expressed her need for something good to come out of a situation that forever changed the lives of her and the couple’s three children, Austin, Mason and Addison. see DEDICATION pg. 5

tive way to ensure future zoning decisions are based on sound public policy rather than unfounded fears,” she said. Thomas Lacheney, county attorney, said the county was surprised to receive the letter from Hardiman Law on KCG’s behalf and does not see any legal claim in it. When asked how the county will address this situation, he said “there is nothing for the county to address at this point because we dealt with the rezoning request and the case is closed.” “I cannot tell if they will actually file suit, and there isn’t anything we can ‘settle.’ The rezoning was denied and the board behaved properly in doing so,” Lacheney said in an email. Hardiman’s letter includes a summary overview of the case see ACCUSED pg. 4

POWHATAN – The developer that sought approval to build an apartment complex in Powhatan County but was denied by the board of supervisors in February is now accusing the county of violating fair housing practices. The county recently received a letter dated Oct. 19 from Hardiman Law, a firm representing KCG Development, stating that the supervisors’ decision in denying a rezoning request for the Reserve at South Creek violated the Fair Housing Act and caused the developer to suffer “injury as a direct result of the county’s discrimination.” That injury entitles the company to damages and attorneys’ fees, according to the letter’s author, attorney Helen Hardiman.

In the letter, Hardiman offers to discuss resolution of the claims “without the additional cost of litigation” and gives Powhatan leadership until 5 p.m. on Friday, Nov. 2 to contact the firm and “explore mutually beneficial paths forward.” “If we are unable to resolve the matter, then we are prepared to exercise our fair housing rights,” she wrote. In response to an email sent to the law firm after the letter was received, Stacy Kaplowitz, vice president of development, responded with a brief email. She said KCG’s intent in sending the letter to the Powhatan supervisors was to open a dialogue about the ramifications of the county’s decision in denying the rezoning request. “Our hope is that county leadership will engage with us and other stakeholders in a produc-

for $9.6 million in projects By Laura McFarland News Editor

POWHATAN – The Powhatan County Board of Supervisors last week approved in a split vote a $9.4 million financing package to fund capital improvement projects. During the board’s meeting on Monday, Oct. 22, supervisors voted 3-2 in favor of approving the plan to pay for seven projects on the capital improvement plan (CIP) using borrowed funds. Voting for the project were chairman Carson Tucker, who represents District 5, Angie Cabell, District 3, and Bill Melton, District 4. Voting against it were David Williams, District 1, and Larry Nordvig, District 2. The Powhatan County School Board and Economic Development Authority will also have to approve the financing at their Nov. 13 and Nov. 19 meetings, respectively, since one of the elementary schools will be used as collateral in the loan. If all goes ahead, the projected date to close on the fiscal year (FY) 2019 project financing would be Friday, Nov. 23. The board actually approved a resolution that says the bond shall not exceed $9.6 million, but county administrator Ted Voorhees later clarified that is the maximum amount allowed. The proposed projects total $9.4 million, but the interest rate is still being finalized, so the goal is to close on the package as close to $9.4 million as possible. The finance package as presented would include the re-

purposing of Pocahontas Middle School using its existing HVAC system ($1.284 million); constructing a new convenience center in the east end of the county ($1.75 million); Village Building sports fields upgrades ($500,000); expanding and paving a gravel lot on Marion Harland Lane to accommodate more courthouse parking ($400,000); athletic field improvements to the lighting ($758,000); ERP financial management system ($1.5 million), and $263,000 in contingency funds. The package also includes $2.945 million for Pocahontas and Powhatan Elementary schools maintenance through energy performance contracting. The school district had a technical energy audit performed by Trane Building Advantage, which recommended the energy efficient and cost saving measures. Energy savings performance contracting is a financial mechanism used to pay for today’s facility upgrades with tomorrow's energy savings. The board had reviewed the financing options at recent workshops with Kyle A. Laux, senior vice president of Davenport & Company LLC, the county’s investment firm. Through those meetings, they narrowed an initial proposal of up to $23.9 million down to the current amount. Before the board began its discussion, Laux once again gave a presentation that detailed the proposed financing package. It assumes a 4.01 percent insee BOARD, pg. 6

Powhatan Middle School adjusting well to Chromebook rollout By Laura McFarland News Editor

POWHATAN – If anything about the rollout of a one-to-one Chromebook initiative at Powhatan Middle School surprised staff, it was how smoothly it went. Administrators planned to take the second and third weeks of school to distribute Chromebooks to the 1,022 students in sixth, seventh and eighth grades, but in actuality, it only took about four days to accomplish the feat, Dr. Samantha Martin, principal, said. “It was done by history classes and the distribution went very quickly.

CHROMEBOOK Continued from pg. 1

Now several weeks into school and having had the Chromebooks in students’ hands for awhile, Martin said she is still extremely pleased with the way the program is going. “It has definitely been used to support the division goals for instruction that we have for students to be able to collaborate, innovate and create. Their digital fluency is very high. Lots of times you will see the students showing the teachers how to use the Chromebooks,” she said. This is the second time in two years that Powhatan County Public Schools has seen the rollout of Chromebooks to the entire population of one of its schools. Powhatan High School did a successful pilot program during the 2016-2017 school year and then rolled out the one-to-one during the last school year. Similarly, the middle school did a pilot program last year with 12 teachers who had dedicated Chromebook carts in their classrooms at Pocahontas

Middle School, Martin said. Those teachers were integral to easing the transition for the full rollout across the entire school. “I think a lot of the growing pains we could have had were avoided because of the purposeful pilot,” she said. Another aspect of the pilot program that was helpful was that the 12 teachers were from a mix of the three grade levels and subject matters, said Gillian Lambert, instructional technology resource teacher. Teachers in English, science and history each had their own experience with how the Chromebooks worked with their subject matter and “could then share out with their grade levels and areas.” Two other factors that helped were teachers who were eager to incorporate the devices and a willingness to learn from the high school on what worked and didn’t when it did its full rollout, Lambert said. As with the high school, the middle school students will keep their Chromebooks for the entire year, she said. But un-

She is survived by her eight children, Bruce Jr. (Shane), Rick (Sarah), George (Rene), Jack (Tonda), Liz Gulick (David), Terri Rexroad (Steve), Carolyn Forrester MATTHEWS (Tim) and Bobby. She is also survived by 14 adoring grandchildren, four great-grandsons; sister-in-law, Agnes Mathews; and numerous cousins and extended family. Georgianne loved life, lived it to the fullest and portrayed a presence of true joy to those around her. She welcomed a steady stream of daily visitors to her home, which was always full of laughter, bright colors and good food. Everyone loved her because she made every single person feel special. Known as the “Sunflower Lady of Ballsville,” she was often featured in the local newspaper for her fields of sunflowers that blossomed each year. Countless people would come to have their photographs taken among the flowers, where she would encourage them to pick a few to take home. She loved bringing joy to others, but her first love was the Lord, and she was never bashful about voicing that love to her family and friends. A Celebration of Life for this oneof-a-kind lady will be held at 11 a.m. on Saturday, November 10 at Mount Moriah Baptist Church.

like the high school, where students should get the same Chromebook back each year, the middle school devices will be collected at the end of the year, reset and then redistributed in the fall but not necessarily to the same students. The school district ordered 1,150 Chromebooks for the middle school, representing one per student plus a pool of spares for the help desk, said Jeff Durrett, director of administrative technology. In order to ensure a student is not without a Chromebook when a repair is needed, the school can issue the student a spare while his or her individual unit is being repaired. The district paid $299.93 per unit, which includes a four-year warranty, he said. Dell provides an on-site technician if a repair is needed that is beyond the scope of what division employees can provide onsite. “However, in regard to repairs, something that has changed from last year is that our computer techs at both PHS and PMS are be-

ing certified with Dell so that we can do all our repairs in-house,” Durrett said. “My PHS tech was certified last spring, and the PMS techs are enrolled in the program now. That will enable us to provide quicker turn-around for repairs, and we’ll save on warranty costs in the long run.” Employees started right on day one with the Wifi at the middle school tuned and ready to go, Durrett said. The middle school is using the same system that was installed last year at the high school, and after having been through the tuning process before, staff was able to drop the same configuration on the access points at the middle school, which was a big help. The student digital fluency is high and the middle schools students have quickly adapted to using the Chromebooks, Martin said. She praised the teachers’ creativity in using the devices in their lessons, giving examples such as French classes using the Chromebooks to see 360-degree views from the Eiffel Tower,

health classes having the students track their own fitness testing data, or the music technology and music creation classes using programs that allow the students to compose music. The Chromebooks are meant to enhance the curriculum and become an extension of what the teachers are already teaching, Lambert said. “I think they are doing very well with incorporating them. I work with a lot of the teachers on different ways to use it and how to use it also for the deeper learning we are looking for and not just a substitute for paper and pencil,” she said. Sixth-grader Trevor Britton said he has used his Chromebook in every class in some way and he likes the devices and how they keep all of his materials together. “I like how all of our work is on them and we don’t have to do worksheets and how we can email the teacher if we need something,” Trevor said.

Brian Avinger said he likes that he can look on Schoology to remind him of his due dates and upcoming tests. He also likes the different activities he has gotten access to, whether it is coding drones or playing educational games such as math Pacman or a science game. Melissa Clayton, an integrated sixth-grade science teacher, said she has found the Chromebooks amazing so far. Instead of worksheets, she gives the students assignments digitally, they complete and submit them via Schoology and she can grade them and send them back digitally. She said she doesn’t miss carrying all of the stacks of paper around. “We still do hands-on lab activities but they put the information into their Chromebooks,” she said. “They have been graphing on Google Sheets. They have learned how to create a graph and interpret it. it is a whole lot quicker and easier for the electronic age.” Laura McFarland may be reached at Lmcfarland@powhatantoday. com.

Fire and rescue vehicle struck while responding to accident By Laura McFarland News Editor

POWHATAN – Powhatan County came too close last week to feeling the pain recently experienced in Hanover County when a car struck an occupied fire and rescue vehicle on Route 288 in Powhatan as it was responding to an accident. In the early hours of Wednesday, Oct. 24, fire and rescue chief Steven Singer had just gotten back into his command vehicle after responding to an accident where a car hit a deer when another approaching vehicle struck his vehicle and proceeded to overturn. The incident started around 5 a.m., when Powhatan County Fire and Rescue units were dispatched to a single-vehicle accident involving a deer strike in the northbound lane of Route 288 near Huguenot Trail, ac-

cording to a post on the department’s Facebook page. The initial accident resulted in no injuries. An engine company, a medic unit, and a command vehicle, along with multiple law enforcement units, were in the process of clearing up when a vehicle traveled past the blocking engine and struck the stationary Ford Explorer with Powhatan Fire and EMS that was

occupied by Singer. The Ford Explorer was located in the left lane with its emergency lights activated. The oncoming vehicle, a 2001 Chevrolet fourdoor, was driven by Adrian Phillingame, 61, of North Chesterfield. It was traveling northbound and struck the Ford Explorer in the rear, resulting in Phillingame’s vehicle overturning in a median

on the left side of the roadway, according to a release from Sgt. Keeli Hill, public information officer for the Virginia State Police, which is investigating the crash. Singer was transported to the hospital for treatment of minor injuries. He is reported to be sore but otherwise unharmed. Phillingame’s vehicle rolled several times and the driver had to be extri-

cated by firefighters and then transported to the hospital for treatment of serious injuries. Phillingame was charged with reckless driving. Had the accident occurred only a few minutes earlier, when the firefighters were still working the scene, it could have been much worse as several of them were standing nearby, said Brigid Paciello, communications and IT specialist for Powhatan County. The incident was especially disturbing to local firefighters because it came close on the heels of a loss in Hanover County in a similar situation. Lt. Brad Clark, a Hanover firefighter, was fatally struck along Interstate 295 while responding to a crash during Tropical Storm Michael. “I think it really hit home. I know several of the firefighters that were

on scene actually worked with the firefighter from Hanover, Lt. Clark,” Paciello said. “They are always on heightened alert anyway when they are out there on an interstate, but having worked with him and knowing him so well, it heightened their alert a little bit more. It really upped the scariness of it knowing that that had just happened. Literally if this had been moments before, there would have been five people standing there outside of vehicles.” People are reminded that if they see flashing lights, whether it is law enforcement, road workers, fire and rescue, or even a tow truck, oncoming drivers need to move over and give them space, she said. “They are out there doing a job,” she said.

Much of the letter asserts race discrimination as the overall driving factor in the boardâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s denial and comes at that accusation in multiple ways. At the end of the letter, after laying out her case, Hardiman â&#x20AC;&#x153;offered to settle legal claims with strong available remedies.â&#x20AC;? She cited possible available relief under the Fair Housing Act such as a municipality being required to allow affordable housing developments to proceed or compensatory and punitive damages.

and the supervisors â&#x20AC;&#x153;ratified their discrimination by denying the request.â&#x20AC;? Hardiman asserts that the project was initially met with support by many county staff and department heads and named two supervisors, Bill Melton and Larry Nordvig, as initially expressing support of the proposal. Both Melton and Nordvig were contacted to comment on their names being mentioned in the letter but declined because of possible litigation and deferred to Lacheney. Hardimanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s letter went on to reference Nordvig several times, saying he not only supported the project but â&#x20AC;&#x153;assured KCG he would push for rezoning very quickly.â&#x20AC;? It asserts that by fall 2017, once word had gotten out that affordable housing might be coming to Powhatan, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Supervisor Nordvig had reversed courseâ&#x20AC;?

and â&#x20AC;&#x153;county leadership withdrew support.â&#x20AC;? Both comments made at public meetings and documents requested from the county under the Freedom of Information Act, show â&#x20AC;&#x153;a virtual avalanche of communitybased opposition to The Reserve, many of which deploy stereotypes and thinly-veiled language about race to warn supervisors of what they fear will be the result of affordable housing: high crime, drug use, dangerous people in proximity to Powhatan schools, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;importing outsidersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; from other areas, destruction of the charming and rural character of Powhatan, reduction of property values, and the like.â&#x20AC;? The letter also cites several residentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; comments, which included language such as â&#x20AC;&#x153;laying the groundwork for a ghetto in our county,â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;income-based properties draw criminals, drugs and violence,â&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;you get a call one day that your granddaughter has been raped between the school and the apartments. But thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not bad â&#x20AC;&#x201C; she could have her throat cut and be laying in the d*** creek dead.â&#x20AC;?

stressed that the apartments are Section 42 housing, which uses low income housing tax credits to build and lower rents based on income. After hearing all of these comments, the supervisors voted 4-1 in favor of denying KCGâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rezoning request, Hardiman wrote. Here she again specifically referenced Nordvig, quoting him as saying â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;The bottom line is Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve never seen such strong, sustained, sincere support from the community â&#x20AC;&#x201C; youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re awesome! The people are our boss, so I will therefore vote no â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the people have spoken.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;In short, the county voted the proposal down because of community opposition. And the community opposition was significantly comprised of race-based fears and stereotypes about who might occupy the affordable housing units at The Reserve,â&#x20AC;? Hardiman wrote. Lacheneyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s response to the attorneyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s accusations about resident comments was that anyone can come to the public hearing and speak. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We cannot/do not control what the citizens say.

and the statements of citizens cannot be imputed to the board of supervisors,â&#x20AC;? he said.

Other arguments Hardimanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s letter cited discrimination based on several other arguments: Preferential treatment â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Hardiman cited three plans for apartments proposed in Powhatan in the recent past, saying only one of them was approved. Winterfield Phase 2, which was billed as â&#x20AC;&#x153;premium, high endâ&#x20AC;? apartments for seniors, passed unanimously, while The Reserve and a 2011 project called Shady Oaks, both of which would use low income housing tax credits, were opposed by residents and denied or deferred. To this and earlier points, Lacheney referenced a letter from KCG to the county on Jan. 26 in which it outlined the project as having â&#x20AC;&#x153;housing units that will be targeted to working individuals and families as well as seniors living on fixed incomes in Powhatan County.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;There was never any thought on the part of the board of supervisors that this was Section 8 housing or targeted to low-income people,â&#x20AC;? Lacheney said. Lack of affordable

housing â&#x20AC;&#x201C; â&#x20AC;&#x153;Powhatan lacks an adequate supply of quality affordable housing, and its lower-income residents are rent burdened,â&#x20AC;? Hardiman wrote. Rent burdens in the region â&#x20AC;&#x153;disproportionately affect African Americans.â&#x20AC;? The Reserve would create needed affordable housing opportunities and increase racial integration of the county because â&#x20AC;&#x153;the pool of likely applicants to The Reserve is disproportionately African American.â&#x20AC;? Invalid basis for denial â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Hardiman said KCG was given three reasons why the project was denied and refuted all of them, saying they â&#x20AC;&#x153;all amount to pretext for discrimination.â&#x20AC;? She offered arguments refuting that the project was not compatible with the 2010 Long-Range Comprehensive Plan, did not exemplify the design elements identified for the Village Center-Planned Development (VC-PD), and is not compatible with adjacent industrial uses. She also refutes opponentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; claims that the children who would live in the apartments would push the countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s schools to capacity and create too much additional traffic.

She said her late husband taught her to be strong and resilient, question the unknown and challenge the impossible. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Mike was our superhero. He was a loving and supportive husband, father, friend, mentor and coach. Mike made a difference, and I would challenge you all to do the same and encourage you to be thoughtful, to be kind, as everybody is fighting an uphill battle,â&#x20AC;? she said. She also talked about the court case that occurred earlier in the month that saw her husbandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s killer, Travis Ball, take an Alford plea and be sentenced to 36 years in prison, which was far less than many had been hoping for. She sent a special message to Virginiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s governor and legislators, some of whom were in the audience. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I do believe that we need some change in laws. I do believe that

law enforcement and all of our first responders need to be protected,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I do believe that when a law enforcement officer is killed in the line of duty that it should be an automatic federal offense. It should be at minimum life in prison without parole if not the death penalty.â&#x20AC;? Another speaker, Wayne Huggins, executive director of the Virginia State Police Association, pointed out that these kinds of dedications are events that people never want to happen because it means an officer has been lost. But if that comes to pass, then it is the duty of survivors to remember them. â&#x20AC;&#x153;These types of ceremonies help us fulfill our promise that your sacrifices will never ever, ever be forgotten but rather will always be remembered,â&#x20AC;? he said.

taking on more debt and Nordvig, who had also voiced his concerns all along, soon followed. Melton commented on the boardâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s efforts to reduce the proposed spending in the last few meetings and the need he saw in several of the projects. When the board agreed on bonded projects in 2016, the majority decision was that they would agree to let Powhatanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s debt service vs. expenditure policy level, which is a factor in its credit rating, approach a maximum rate of 15 percent with the understanding that they would get it back down to the desired 12 percent as quickly as possible. Williams has made that topic a priority all along when discussing financing and did so again on Oct. 22. He pointed out that when the county borrowed $54.5 million in 2016, he didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think that two years later â&#x20AC;&#x153;we would be back here with a proposal looking at half as much again,â&#x20AC;? referring to the originally proposed $23.9 million. Even with the reduced amount, he said he still has personal concerns as a supervisor. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Now that we are looking at it and now that it has been reduced down to $9.4 (million) in projects, I am still concerned â&#x20AC;Ś that this has become the new norm, that we are not going to really get back un-

derneath 12 percent but we will be bouncing around somewhere between 12 something and 14 something because every so many years, every time we get an opportunity, we will layer in more debt,â&#x20AC;? Williams said. He added that he is worried about the countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s debt overall, whether it is incremental or recurring costs that add up to pennies on the real estate tax in the next budget and the ones that come after. The countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s current way of planning, managing and spending has gotten the county where it is, and that needs to change, Williams said. He acknowledged a point that Melton would make when he spoke, that there are capital improvement projects that need to be done, but said they need to be done in a fiscally responsible manner. He gave the example of Goochland County turning around after being in major financial straits several years ago to now being prosperous. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have to change. We canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t keep going on the course that we are going, where every two years we look to be able to borrow money to do needed projects,â&#x20AC;? he said. Nordvig prepared a short slideshow that he used to help illustrate his points and how he felt about the current situation.

He used an example from Peanuts of Lucy continually promising Charlie Brown she would hold the football for him to kick only to yank it away at the last minute. He said he felt like Charlie Brown looking at Lucy and hearing the promise that this time he would get to kick it. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are about to vote on a spending package of over $9 million. This spending will increase our debt a lot. I also foresee a time soon when taxes will be increased to cover any additional spending, which indeed was in this original proposal,â&#x20AC;? Nordvig said. In addition to the cartoon, Nordvig used his slideshow to show 2015 campaign ads from Melton and Tucker where they talked either about lowering taxes or promising not to raise them and lowering the debt ratio. He said he was not attacking them but trying to illustrate their fiscal responsibility promises. He then pointed to their support of the effective five-cent tax rate increase to pay for the 2016 bonds, thereby increasing the debt ratio. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have never recovered the original tax rate of 85 cents from before this vote, and we are now poised to move in the wrong direction again, another run at the football,â&#x20AC;? Nordvig said. Before the vote, he

challenged the board to â&#x20AC;&#x153;step back, ditch this proposal, roll up our sleeves, identify true needs not wants, consider them individually and work as a board to come up with a more reasonable spending plan.â&#x20AC;? Melton said he met with groups that urged him to do what was needed without raising taxes while lowering the debt service vs. expenditure ratio as soon as possible. He promised them to weigh the projects heavily â&#x20AC;&#x153;and do what was right for the county and citizens of the county.â&#x20AC;? He pointed out with the $9.6 million, the county would reap the benefit of many projects that had been needed for years, including an east convenience center, expanded courthouse parking, replacing a 17-year-old financial system, and elementary school repairs that are only going to get worse. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I am fine with the $9.6. I am not sure we are being a little shortsighted but I committed that I was going to bring it in with no tax increase, not binding a future board, and bringing the debt policy back as quickly as we committed ourselves to,â&#x20AC;? Melton said. Laura McFarland may be reached at Lmcfarland@powhatantoday. com.

The right to vote is a gamble worth making By Laura McFarland News Editor

ast week, many in the nation waited and watched with rapt attention for the drawing of six two-digit numbers to see if their life could be changed in an instant. Winning $1.6 billion is an astounding concept and enough to make some people who never buy a lottery ticket go, “Oh, why not?” After you did it, maybe you even spent a little time fantasizing about what you would do with that much money (minus the huge chunk out for taxes, of course). Maybe you thought about the things you would buy, the people you would help, the places you would travel, or the causes you would support. With that much money at stake, the possibilities seem kind of limitless. Alas, it wasn’t to be, at least not the big one, which was sold in South Carolina. That chance of one in 302 million really is a doozy, but people still play. It’s built on a hope that they can beat the odds and make a better life for themselves, not a guarantee. Surprisingly enough, thinking about this as I write this column was inspired by something I saw on Facebook. It made the analogy of people taking the chance

were old enough to go fight and die in the Vietnam War at age 18 then they sure as heck should have the right to vote, which came with the 26th Amendment. All of these efforts combined and the work of so many others were the examples that were set for me about the importance of the right to vote. When I visit the polls to take photos and speak with local citizens, one of my favorite things is to see parents with their children. Sometimes, it’s because of necessity because they don’t have anywhere else to take them. But, sometimes, it’s because they are taking the time to instruct their children of the importance of exercising their right to vote and leading by example. I am equally impressed when I see disabled or ailing seniors who refuse to give up their right to vote, even casting their ballot from a car if they have mobility issues, which is an option provided by the efficient Powhatan Voter Registrar’s Office. There is no one in 302 million chance of winning when it comes to casting your ballot. Regardless of who wins, your vote counts, so don’t forget to cast it in the General Election on Nov. 6, 2018.

In their words though, even if people don’t think their vote will count, it’s a gamble that you don’t have to spend a dime on. It’s a cynical viewpoint, but many of us have probably had it at some point, especially when we are voting in an election where it feels like we are voting for the lesser of two evils rather than someone we actually want to hold that particular office.

T H E E D I TO R Vote based on candidate’s positions, not sterotypes Dear Editor, On October 10, a letter was published stating that gender should not be the deciding factor when choosing a candidate. I completely agree. My support for Abigail Spanberger for Congress is based on her strength and intelligence, not her gender. I find this to be true of most of her supporters. Do we need more women in Congress? Of course we do. But we also need representatives that care more for their country than their party. We have a dysfunctional Congress that is failing in their mission to serve as an independent branch of government. Abigail Spanberger has served our country under republican and democratic administrations and, as she says, “It was the mission that mattered.” Mr. Brat likes to emphasize his position as a professor of economics, but his support of a tax bill that benefits wealthy donors and corporations, gives very little to the middle class, and will increase our national debt by over one trillion dollars, does not support his claims of fiscal responsibility. The GOP leadership has now made it known that they plan to turn to cuts in Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid to pay for these entitlements for the wealthy. In an age of mass information (and misinformation!), it is important to find the facts. We all have important votes to cast on November 6. I hope that everyone votes based on Abigail Spanberger’s actual positions, not on political assumptions and stereotypes. Nancy V. Ayers Powhatan County

Resident keeps it short and to the point: ‘Vote Republican’ Dear Editor, A few weeks ago, I had the privilege to have my political article published in this column.

So I will come to the point. In the shortest KJV New Testament verse, John 11:35 "Jesus wept" vice lacking being a large dissertation, it is a strong and powerful message!

The eighth annual Pumpkin for Kids decorating contest drew some creative entries, including ones for Despicable Me, The Wizard of Oz, Moana, and Winnie the Pooh, as well as some tricky engineering designs.

Pumpkins bring joy to kids By Laura McFarland News Editor

! " # " $ %" & '" ( & ! ) ' & ! " * & " ' " $ ! ) *

OWHATAN â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Cinderellaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fairy godmother would have been pleased at the transformations that took place for the eighth annual Pumpkins for Kids decorating contest. Now in its eighth year, the event to benefit the Childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Hospital Foundation drew a room full of creative and elaborate transformed pumpkins designed to bring joy to children and their families during long hospital stays. Tables and even chairs spread around a large room at Independence Golf Club were overflowing on Wednesday, Oct. 24 with pumpkins that had been decorated to look like childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s characters, houses and buildings, spacecraft, food, people, animals, and more. In all, 93 large pumpkins and many accompanying smaller ones were transformed. This contest, which was started by Powhatan native Rachel Massengill, benefits the Childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Hospital Foundation. Entries are submitted by companies in the Richmond area, including a few with Powhatan connections, and the top winners in a decorating competition were taken to the Brook Road campus of the Childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Hospital of Richmond at VCU to be put on display. The other entries went to other hospitals around the area to also spread some joy. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It went great. I loved the venue. I was really excited. I thought it worked really well for it. There was definitely a lot stiffer competition but it gets better and better every year. There is more competition every year,â&#x20AC;? Massengill said. Pumpkins for Kids has definitely come a long way in the last eight years. When Massengill started it, she just had five Richmond-based companies decorate a

pumpkin and they were taken to the hospital. The next year it was 10 companies and started to get more competitive. It has grown every year since until about 50 companies participate, some decorating multiple pumpkins. In the last few years, companies have also asked if they could donate to the childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hospital and have helped purchase toys for the hospital, Massengill said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;My goal was just to bring smiles to childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s faces by having companies decorate a pumpkin. Then it turned into companies asking if they could give to the Pumpkins for Kids project,â&#x20AC;? she said. Still, the heart of the event every year is the pumpkins and helping to brighten up the local hospitals, she added. The pumpkins have to be decorated not carved because of sanitation issues in the hospitals. So the pumpkins start as the base and the creations are built on or around them. Luck Companies, the parent company of Luck Stone in Powhatan, had a table full of decorated pumpkins, including the Tin Man from Wizard of Oz, a pineapple, Genie from Aladdin, a cauldron and a Rub a Dub Dub scene. This is the second year the company has participated as a way to help the community, but it is also a great experience for the employees who put so much effort into their creations, said Jason McKend, executive IT support for Luck Companies. Sometimes more than one person may decorate a pumpkin, which creates opportunities for teamwork, he said. They also just have a blast decorating and then narrowing down the choices in an in-house competition to the final selection that will be submitted for the actual Pumpkins for Kids. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It feels great. We like to give back. Wherever they go, we are happy

about that and hope they bring smiles to people,â&#x20AC;? he said of the pumpkins. Shana Bennett, a customer account process analyst, brought the four pumpkins submitted by the customer account management center of Dominion Energy, which serves part of Powhatan County. The companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;Winnie the Poohâ&#x20AC;? inspired pumpkin was among the top 10 finalists, but they also submitted one of the Papa Smurfs seen in the competition, a Minion and a character from Teen Titan. It offers the companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s associates an opportunity to share their creative abilities while giving back to the community they help energize, Bennett said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I love this opportunity, especially to put a smile on our babiesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; faces â&#x20AC;&#x201C; because they are all our babies. It is a feelgood moment. It warms your heart to be part of such a beautiful event,â&#x20AC;? she said. Sarah Irby, director of community relations for Childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Hospital Foundation, was called on to narrow the top 10 down to the top five, who received prize baskets with a trophy and gift cards donated by local restaurants. Thinking about the pumpkins that would be taken to the childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hospital and displayed in clinics, nurses stations and at the front desk, she said it is wonderful for patients, families, children and staff to have these bright, cheerful displays greeting them when they walk by them. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The kids will do a parade around the hospital on Halloween when they are dressed up so they will get to see the pumpkins,â&#x20AC;? she said.

Powhatan head coach Jim Woodson acknowledges the crowd as he was recognized prior to Powhatan’s 21-20 win over Albemarle on Oct. 26. Woodson announced on Oct. 24 that he would retire at the conclusion of the 2018 season as head coach of the Indians.

Woodson announces retirement as head coach By Billy Fellin Sports Editor

ince 1979, a lot has changed in Powhatan County. New school buildings have been built, residents have come and gone and 39 classes have graduated from Powhatan High School. But, there has been one constant at Powhatan High School over those years—Jim Woodson as a coach. However, that time will be coming to

an end soon as Woodson announced on Oct. 24 that he will retire from the position he has held for 34 seasons. “I’ve thought long and hard and it’s just time,” Woodson told the Richmond Times-Dispatch, which had the first story on the announcement. “It’s somebody else’s turn. They say you know when it’s time, and this is it. It’s time for somebody young, with more enthusiasm, more time, to come in. It’s time to pass the torch.” Woodson is completing his 40th season overall in the orange-and-black.

Woodson was a three-sport athlete at Powhatan High School, playing football, baseball and basketball. Woodson has coached JV football and basketball for the Indians and assumed the mantle of head football coach in 1985. Since then, he has been at the helm of a consistently successful program. Woodson’s career record stands at 281-105-1 in 34 seasons and he is the winningest coach in the Richmond area. That’s a career win percentage of

73-percent. His 281st win was the 21-20 overtime win on Oct. 25 over Albemarle, which was punctuated by Woodson’s call to have Jacob Moss run the quarterback sneak in the win. Woodson ranks eighth all-time in Virginia High School League history with the 281 wins. Joe May, who coached at Nottoway until 2008, is ahead of Woodson with 285. see WOODSON, pg. 4B

Moss wins it in OT for Indians with QB sneak By John Harvey The Daily Progress

Powhatan quarterback Jacob Moss, seen here against Western Albemarle, lifted the Indians to a 21-20 win with a quarterback sneak.

Albemarle’s athletic department honored Powhatan football coach Jim Woodson prior to the game on Oct. 26 after he announced he would step down at the end of the season. The dean of coaching in the Jefferson District celebrated the honor by deciding to go for two in overtime during the Indians’ thrilling 21-20 win. Quarterback Jacob Moss took the snap and followed his center and guard, and just got the ball over the goal line as Powhatan (5-3, 3-3) snapped Albemarle’s four-game win streak. “It was a quarterback wedge,” Woodson said. “We kicked a little motion to give a little window dressing, and we run

behind our horses. The offensive line, nobody knows them, but they don’t care because they are the reason.” After a scoreless first quarter, Albemarle opened the scoring on the first play of the second quarter, when Daquandre Taylor rumbled off left tackle for a fouryard touchdown and a 7-0 Patriots lead with 11:54 left. Powhatan answered on the ensuing possession with a nine-play, 66-yard drive of its own. The Indians went away from its run-oriented attack as Moss found Brendan McMullin on a 33-yard touchdown pass to tie the game at 7-7 with 7:42 left in the first half. Yousof Algburi drilled a 28-yard field goal as time expired to give Albemarle a see INDIANS, pg 2B

Knights fall short in possible playoff preview By Billy Fellin Sports Editor

t was a matchup of the top-two football teams in the Virginia Independent School Athletic Association’s Division III at Blessed Sacrament Huguenot on Oct. 26. The No. 2 Knights hosted No. 1 Roanoke Catholic in what could be a preview of a playoff game down the road for both teams. If that is true, however, Blessed Sacrament Huguenot hopes that the next time they see the Celtics goes differently as Roanoke Catholic rolled past the Knights 66-8. “We took one on the chin tonight,” Blessed Sacrament Huguenot coach Shawn Pickett said. “Hopefully we can get it back together next week and get ready for the playoffs.” The game got off to a rough start for the Knights and set the tone for the rest of the game. On the Knights’ first drive, Kemper Roudabush dropped back for a pass. The

ball was tipped and intercepted by the Celtics defense. Just two plays after the turnover, the Celtics scored to make it 6-0 after a failed two-point conversion. Blessed Sacrament Huguenot’s first snap on their next drive was an 18-yard run by Trevor Parker, but that big play didn’t spark the Knights offense. A fumbled snap dug Blessed Sacrament Huguenot into a hole they weren’t able to get out of and were forced to punt. The Knights pinned the Celtics at their 18, but a 65-yard run two plays into the drive set Roanoke Catholic up for a touchdown two plays later for a 12-0 lead after another two-point conversion failure. Roanoke Catholic’s defense started pushing its advantage and was holding the Knights offense in check. On its next three drives, the Knights had just three plays that went for positive yardage. Sacks and tackles for loss by the Celtics and penalties by the Knights kept Blessed Sacrament Huguenot from continuing drives.

The Knights had just one first down in the first half. “It was a lack of experience in the big games,” Pickett said. “It happened to us against Isle of Wight too and here we go again. We have to correct those mistakes and work extremely hard this week.” Roanoke Catholic’s offense kept the pedal down against the Knights defense. On its third drive, after a penalty wiped out a 29-yard run for a touchdown, the Celtics scored through the air on a 31yard touchdown pass. Another pass to start the second quarter went for 19 yards and a score, followed by a 35-yard run, a 1-yard run, and a 70-yard punt return to make it 45-0 in favor of the Celtics in the first half. The Celtics scored twice more in the second half, on a 1-yard touchdown run and a 2-yard run before the Knights got on the board. Blessed Sacrament Huguenot was able to put a drive together late in the game, which was keyed by Michael Kemp. Kemp started the drive with a 9-yard run and had runs of 10 and 35 yards on the

drive as well. Kemp led the Knights with 70 rushing yards. The 35-yard run set up a 1-yard run by Roudabush for the Knights’ lone touchdown of the game. He would convert the two-point conversion to put the score at the eventual final of 66-8. Blessed Sacrament Huguenot will travel to Richmond Christian on Nov. 2 for its regular season finale against Richmond Christian. Pickett said that he hopes to get a second chance at the Celtics, but said his team needs to have its attention on the Warriors. “Hopefully we get to see (Roanoke Catholic) in the state championship game,” he said. “I still don’t think the score showed what our potential can be. We were down three offensive lineman tonight, but we don’t want to use that an excuse. We need to work hard the next three weeks and get these kids’ spirits up.” After the game was rescheduled, Senior Night was moved to Nov. 9.

Powhatan’s Brendan McMullin (4) and Bradey Lindhjem (76) celebrate a touchdown in the first half at Albemarle on Oct. 26.

The Indians started the overtime from the 15 after a penalty on the extra point attempt. Jacob Taylor had two big runs, including a 2-yard touchdown run on fourth and goal to extend the game. Powhatan missed the

extra point attempt, but Albemarle was called for roughing the kicker, which gave the Indians another opportunity. The ball was moved to the 2-yard line, and Woodson decided to go for the win.

“I haven’t been in that situation often,” Woodson said. “But with the penalty, it cut it in half and I said ‘What the hell, let’s go for it. Let’s have fun. I’ve only got one more regular season game, I’ve got to go out with a bang.”

Indians volleyball honors seniors, beats Rapids By Billy Fellin Sports Editor

The Powhatan volleyball team had lost three games in a row, including a heart-wrenching five-set loss to Albemarle on Oct. 18. What better night to turn that all around than on Senior Night? That’s exactly what the Indians did with a five-set 20-25, 25-12, 25-12, 1625, 15-5 win over James River at Powhatan High School. “It was the first win we’ve had in while,” coach Amber Foos said. “Still would have liked to have seen it done in three. The first set kind of caught our feet under us. They really needed this win, especially coming off a five-set loss to Albemarle. This is the best I’ve seen them play

since the losses to Fluvanna and Monticello.” It was a night all about the seniors and several seniors stepped up during the five-set showdown with the Rapids. In a pre-game ceremony, Jordan Davis, Katie Coats, Hannah Worsham, Lauren Llewellyn, Maddie Turner and Rachel Mueller were honored as the seniors on the team. “All the hard work has paid off,” Llewellyn said of being a senior. “I’ve earned my position and being in this program this long shows that it’s worth it.” “It’s relieving,” Worsham said of reaching her final season. “We finally made it. We’re finally here. It’s exciting…it’s really sad, but it’s also exciting.” “I feel blessed to have these other seniors with me,” Coats said. “They’ve

encouraged me and really helped me, and it’s nice to be graduating with them.” Llewellyn had 51 assists on the night, Davis had 14 kills, Turner had 38 digs and Mueller had four kills. “I just have to play for my teammates and go from there,” Davis said of her performance. James River jumped out to a fast start in the first set, riding a 9-2 run over the first 11 points. Powhatan started climbing back into the match and chipped away James River’s lead. A kill by Sierra Ellison brought the Indians within three and two Rapids errors made it a 16-14 deficit. Back-to-back points by Llewellyn and Mueller tied the game and an ace from Natalie Mueller gave

the Indians their first lead of the match at 17-16. It was short lived, however as James River took the lead back at 18-17 and went on a 7-3 run to end the first set. Powhatan dominated the second and third sets. In the second, an ace from Turner started a six-point run that broke the set open to 15-6 and set James River on its back foot. “To play for four years, it’s nice to see how far we’ve come together,” Turner said. “My team just helps me (get the digs) up and they help me do well.” Similarly, the Indians rode an eight-point run in the third set that gave them a 15-8 lead and cruised to a 2-1 match lead. The fourth was much more like the first, however, as the Indians battled back to tie it at 13-13 and

took the lead one point later. But, the Rapids went on a 10-2 run to close out the set and sent it to the fifth. However, the fifth set was all Indians as a kill from Star Bryant started a crucial 5-0 run that opened the lead up and tilted the scales firmly toward the Indians. On Oct. 23, the Indians took down Orange in three to end the regular season on a two-game winning streak. While the Indians got to play one last time on their home court in the Region 4B playoffs against Louisa on Oct. 30, it was the final time on the home court in the regular season for the seniors. Rachel Mueller said that she thinks this group has left a solid legacy for

others to follow. “I think we’ve shown the younger girls need to be playing travel and gotten them interested,” she said. “We’ve shown that they’ll be fine and they can continue what we started.” For Foos, this is a special group of seniors as it includes players – like Davis, Llewellyn and Turner – who have been coached by her since their freshman seasons. Foos said that her role in Powhatan is the first time she’s been at a school for four consecutive years. “They’re a good group,” Foos said. “I’m going to miss them. They started here when I started here. They’ve been with me for four years. It’s tough. I want to make sure they stay with us as long as possible during the playoffs. I’m not ready to see them go just yet.”

Powhatan alum Gatlin Snyder was a stout goalie for the Indians field hockey team, one who led a defense that posted shutout after shutout during the region title run last season. Now, Snyder is in her freshman season at Randolph-Macon College and is making her presence felt thus far in her collegiate career. Snyder has played in 12 of the Yellow Jacketsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; 18 games this season, with 11 starts. In those 12 games, Snyder has already eclipsed the 100 save mark with 117 saves as of Oct. 28. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been going really well,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been a lot and weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had a lot of games that have been really close. A lot of them have come down to the wire. But, I trust my defense and I trust my girls. I know they always have my back, so I do my best to have theirs.â&#x20AC;? During Snyderâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s time in the cage for the Yellow Jackets, she has allowed 20 goals with an average of 1.82 goals against. She said that she has gotten more playing time in her freshman season than she expected she would. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had a lot more playing time than I thought I would,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Going

Woodson won two state championships with the Indians. The first was in the 1996 Division 2 title game, which Powhatan won 20-8 over Giles High School. The second was in 2003, a 6-0 win over William Fleming in the Division 4 championship game. He was named state coach of the year twice in 1996 and 2003. Woodson was also honored as AllMetro Coach of the Year five times during his over three decades of coaching. Woodson became the winningest head coach on a memorable night against

into my first game, I was a little nervous. But, once I was on the field, I was totally fine.â&#x20AC;? She has posted two shutouts this season. The first was on Oct. 12 in a 3-0 win over Bridgewater. In the win over the Eagles, Snyder had five saves. On Oct. 14, the Yellow Jackets took down Rhodes 1-0. Snyder had eight saves in that game. Snyder said that the college game â&#x20AC;&#x153;is very differentâ&#x20AC;? from the high school game, but she is adjusting well to the differences. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s so fun,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The pace is so much faster. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m having a lot of fun. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been about honing in skills for everyone and focusing on the little things.â&#x20AC;? Her play this season has been among some of the best in the entirety of Division III. Snyder is fifth overall in save percentage with .854. Snyder is averaging 9.75 saves-per-game, which is 13th overall in all of Division III. The Yellow Jackets finished the regular season 8-8 and were 4-4 in the Old Dominion Athletic Conference. The eight wins are four more than Randolph-Macon put together last year. The college schedule is a little longer than the high school one that Snyder had played as an Indian the last

four seasons, but she said that the practice schedule has gotten her prepared for the grind. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our first month, almost, is three-a-day practices,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;That really prepares us, mentally and physically, to get through a long game and a long season.â&#x20AC;? Snyder said that she has been keeping up on what the 2018 edition of the Indians field hockey team has been up to but hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t had the chance to see a game as they both are playing in the same season. She said she hopes that her playing at the college level will inspire the current and future Indians players. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We were the underdogs,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;No one really knew where we were, hockey-wise, and we were off the map. You have to work hard and give it your all. You have to be dedicated to it. It just takes one person because when they see it can happen, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a spark for so many people.â&#x20AC;? Randolph-Macon hit the road to Roanoke on Oct. 30 for the quarterfinals of the ODAC tournament. Should the Yellow Jackets defeat the Maroons in the quarterfinals, they would travel to No. 1 seed Lynchburg on Nov. 2 for the semifinals.

Fluvanna last season. On Oct. 13, 2017, Powhatan defeated the Flucos 35-0 to leave Woodson all alone as the coach with the most wins in the history of high school football in the Richmond area. He had been tied with Roger Brooke of King William/Henrico at 274 prior to the momentous win. After that win in 2017, Woodson told The Powhatan Today that it was all about â&#x20AC;&#x153;the players and the kidsâ&#x20AC;? and that he was proud of being in the position to â&#x20AC;&#x153;work with the young men in this community to get these victories.â&#x20AC;?

Woodson was inducted in the Virginia High School League Hall of Fame in 2013 and retired from 18 years as the athletics director in 2017. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been blessed to have the opportunity to work with all these guys and touch the lives of all these guys,â&#x20AC;? Woodson told the Times-Dispatch. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Hopefully, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve made a difference.â&#x20AC;? Woodsonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s final home appearance will be on Nov. 2 in the regular season finale against Orange. While the Indians are in position to qualify for the Region 4B playoffs, it would be unlikely for Powhatan to host a playoff game.

18-09-AZ: The County of Powhatan proposes the amendment of the Powhatan County Code of Ordinances to amend the provisions of Chapter 83 (Zoning Ordinance), Article V (Transition Base Districts), Sections 83-360 through 83-364 by eliminating the Residential-Commercial (R-C) zoning district and reclassifying all parcels currently zoned as R-C to another zoning district, depending upon the current use of the parcel and the location of the parcel within a platted subdivision or planned development.

42-69I 42-69J 42-69L 42-69M 42-6E

As part of this request, the following changes to the Powhatan County Code of Ordinances and zoning map are proposed:

Based on the aforementioned criteria, the following 16 parcels of real property (identiﬁed by Tax Map Parcel Number), currently zoned Agricultural-10 (A-10) and Residential-Commercial (R-C), will be rezoned, in their entirety, to Commerce Center (CC):

Powhatan code sections 83-360 to 83-364 would be repealed and the R-C Zoning classiﬁcation struck from the county code of ordinances.

All parcels of real property (or portions thereof) that are currently zoned R-C that have been developed and are being used for a commercial purpose, and are not located within a platted subdivision, will be rezoned to the Commerce Center (CC) zoning district (Powhatan Code Sections 83-240 through 83-244).

All parcels of real property that are currently zoned R-C and lie within a platted subdivision will be rezoned to the zoning district which comprises the largest percentage of the acreage of the parcels contained within the platted subdivision.

All parcels that are currently zoned R-C that are vacant, used for residential purposes, or used for institutional purposes, and that are not located within a platted subdivision will be rezoned to the Agricultural-10 (A-10) zoning district (Powhatan Code Sections 83-160 through 83-164).

For parcels of real property that are zoned A-10, R-C, and CC with proffered conditions, the portion of the property zoned R-C will be rezoned to A-10, with the zoning of the remainder of the property being unchanged. For parcels of real property that are zoned R-C, Ofﬁce (O), and Residential Utility (R-U) with proffered conditions, the portion of the property zoned R-C will be rezoned to R-U (Powhatan Code Sections 83-350 through 83-354), with the zoning of the remainder of the property being unchanged.
