Referendum Effort Ignites Feud

Facing a deadline to decide whether they will return to the classroom in September, Loudoun teachers are raising concerns about the long list of unknowns that remain in the school division’s back-to-school plan. Many simply don’t feel the plan is safe.

Teachers and parents were required to decide this week whether they will participate in part-time, in-person classes or sign up for 100 percent distance learning for the first semester of the 2020-21 school year.

In a series of virtual town hall meetings to over the past several days, administrators have worked to provide more details of the class structure and safety procedures that will be implemented when classes resume Sept. 8.

For many teachers, those sessions have only shined light on new concerns—from classroom cleaning schedules to the need for equitable sick leave policies.

On Monday, the Loudoun Education Association, which represents more than 3,600 division employees, recommended its members stay out of the classroom at least until the start of the second semester in January.

According to that statement, “The Loudoun Education Association believes the best course of action is to start the school year with distance learning.

modify curriculum, and develop protocols which meet the needs of students

An announcement by County Chair Phyllis J. Randall (D-At Large) that supervisors next week will take the first formal step toward a police department has sparked an intense public battle with the three-term sheriff, Michael L. Chapman.

Randall on Friday said she would ask for a vote on whether to put the idea to a voter referendum, the first step in the process of starting a county police department. The police department would not begin until 2024 after current Chapman’s term expires.

“That is really important to me, because it’s not about any one person,” Randall said. “And Sheriff Chapman was just elected, he was duly elected, and I do not believe we should try to take the elected sheriff out of this position while his term is in office.”

Chapman, a Republican, handily won re-election over a Democratic challenger in 2019, and began his third four-year term this year.

Randall at a meeting of the board’s finance committee on Tuesday walked that back, saying the motion would instead be for a study about a possible change to Loudoun’s form of government overall rather than a police department referendum, which could mean changes to not only law enforcement but other parts the government’s operations. She said the hundreds of emails she’s had on the topic since announcing the proposal Friday have

HOAs Get Together to Make Their Voices Heard

BY RENSS GREENE rgreene@loudounnow.com

Some of the biggest communities in Loudoun have come together to make a bigger impact.

According to the Piedmont Environmental Council, more than 60 percent of Loudouners live in a Homeowners Association—dwarfing the population of all of Loudoun’s incorporated towns together, although some HOAs are in towns. While they contain the majority of the county’s population, can have very direct impacts on people’s lives, and often face challenges similar to municipalities, they have historically little formal recognition in the county government and little cooperation among them.

The founding members of the Loudoun Coalition of Homeowners and Condominium Associations said the county government’s work to write a new comprehensive plan showed they needed a seat at the table.

“We, as HOA leaders, we have to manage the downstream effects of the decisions that are made in the strategic planning process,” said Cascades Community Association Board of Directors President Matt Durham, who also serves as president of the new HOA coalition. With a population of close to 12,000 people according to the U.S. Census Bureau, Cascades alone has more residents than any Loudoun town except Leesburg—and more than 16 Virginia counties and eight

Cascades Community Association President Matt Durham said HOAs have to deal with the downstream effects of government decisions.

cities.

He gave the example of parking.

“You will not find an HOA or condominium community in Loudoun County—or probably in any county—that will tell you that they have sufficient parking,” Durham said. “… Those are all zoning decisions. And we are all massively under-parked, because builders don’t want to build parking spaces, right? They don’t make any money off of those.”

And because there was no organized HOA voice during work on the new comprehensive plan, he said, they missed the chance to make themselves heard.

Other issues HOAs feel even more keenly about include their roads, lights and other infrastructure elements. They are built by developers and often privately owned, falling to the HOA to maintain after the developer leaves. That means while the residents pay the same taxes as every-

one else, those taxes don’t maintain the streets in their neighborhoods. Instead their HOA has to pay for those—in other words, residents’ HOA fees, pointed out the coalition’s vice president John Lau. He is also the founding president of the Hamlets at Red Cedar HOA and a member of the board of directors.

“Where I am in Red Cedar, we’ve got 26 miles of private roads that we’ve got to deal with, lights, and really got the short shrift from the county in the usual way,” Lau said. “Because the standards they have for those roads are less than the standards for roads that the county or state would assume responsibility for after the development is complete. So, we’re stuck with streets and roads that are not wide enough.”

“I really think what we need is the establishment of some sort of advisory board or commission, and I know there are many—I’m on the Fiscal Impact Committee,” Durham said. “But I think that’s the sort of structure we need where we’re established like that in that form, meet regularly, probably get the chance to not just engage with the Board of Supervisors but also senior staff across the primary topics that are germane to HOAs, and have the opportunity to review and comment on their initiatives before they enact them.”

Both Durham and Lau gave much credit for the idea of bringing the HOAs HOAs continues on page 20

Purcellville Council Considers Utility System Sale

BY PATRICK SZABO

pszabo@loudounnow.com

After delaying recommended utility rate increases and currently generating no new revenue from new water and sewer connections, the Purcellville Town Council is considering another way to deal with its shrinking utility funds—by selling the system.

The Town Council on Tuesday night convened in a closed session to discuss an option to sell the town’s water and sewer systems to Aqua Virginia. The discussion has been prompted by Aqua Virginia’s unsolicited proposal to purchase the systems, according to a staff report. Town Manager David Mekarski and Town Attorney Sally Hankins were also slated to be present in the closed session.

Aqua America is a publicly traded

water and wastewater utility that serves more than 3 million people across the United States. Subsidiary Aqua Virginia serves 75,000 people through 24,160 water connections and 6,903 wastewater connections across 36 counties in the commonwealth, according to its website.

Under Virginia law, the town is not required to disclose details of the proposal if town leaders claim disclosure could adversely affect “the financial interest or bargaining position of the public or private entity.”

In Fiscal Year 2020, the town’s water fund shrunk by 39 percent and its sewer fund shrunk by 16 percent—declines resulting from a need to pay tens of millions of dollars on utility projects and sewer debt and the absence of revenue from new water and sewer connections.

Stantec, the town’s utility rate con-

sultant, advised the town it would need to increase utility rates in one of three ways—by increasing rates by one large amount in Fiscal Year 2021, followed by 4-percent increases for the remainder of the decade; by increasing rates by a moderate amount in FY21 and FY22, followed by 4-percent increases for the remainder of the decade; or by increasing rates by a lesser and steady amount each year through the decade.

On June 9, the Town Council adopted a Fiscal Year 2021 budget accounting solely for the first quarter that excluded utility rate hikes. The council was scheduled to discuss an FY21 budget accounting for the remainder of the fiscal year Tuesday night.

The July 14 meeting will be the first for newly elected council members Christopher Bertaut, Stanley Milan and Mary

Jane Williams—all of whom ran on a slate with Mayor Kwasi Fraser, who also won re-election in June to serve out a fourth consecutive two-year term.

Fraser did not respond to emails or calls with questions on the closed session discussion. Mekarski responded via email, writing that “the discussion has been prompted by Aqua Virginia’s unsolicited proposal to purchase the systems, no action will take place at [Tuesday’s] council meeting.”

Consideration of privatizing the utility system is the latest of several options town leaders have weighed to help return the town’s utility funds to fiscal stability without requiring town residents having to vote to increase fees.

Loudoun’s Confederate Statue to Come Down

BY RENSS GREENE

rgreene@loudounnow.com

A monument that for many residents has served as a stark reminder—and some say a celebration—of some of the darkest parts of American history will come down.

The Board of Supervisors voted unanimously July 7 to affirm that the “Silent Sentinel” statue of a Confederate soldier that stands on the courthouse lawn belongs to the Loudoun Chapter of the United Daughters of the Confederacy, and to allow the organization to remove the monument from public property.

But not every supervisor agreed on why they cast their yes vote.

The vote followed a letter from the Loudoun Chapter of the United Daughters of the Confederacy, asserting that the organization owns the statue since its members raised the bulk of the money to put it up, and asking to reclaim the statue. They acknowledged supervisors were likely to take the statue down with new authority granted by the General Assembly this year; the private property claim sidesteps a lengthy public process and amounts to allowing a private organization to come reclaim their private property.

The statue will likely be gone by Sept. 7.

County Attorney Leo Rogers said Steven Price, the attorney who wrote to supervisors on behalf of the Loudoun Chapter of the United Daughters of the Confederacy, has communicated that the statue will be down on or before Labor Day. After that date, suggested County Chair Phyllis J. Randall (D-At Large), the county government may take the statue down and put it into storage if the Daughters of the Confederacy have not yet come to collect it.

The statue, the “Silent Sentinel,” was commissioned by the Clinton Hatcher Camp Confederate Veterans and Sons, now the Clinton Hatcher Camp of the Sons of the Confederate Veterans, and the Loudoun Chapter of the Daughters of the Confederacy, now the United Daughters of the Confederacy, which began raising funds for the project as early as 1901.

In 1906, the Board of Supervisors agreed to allocate $500 for the project as long as the Sons and Daughters raise the remaining $2,500, and the statue was formally unveiled in 1908, in the height of the Jim Crow era as Confederate monuments were going up across the south. At that time in its history, the Daughters of the Confederacy was promoting the ‘Lost Cause’ narrative of the Civil War that romanticized slavery, and had close ties to the Ku Klux Klan, including erecting a monument to the KKK in North Carolina 18 years later.

would have 30 speakers about the Confederate statue, and of those 30, 27 of them argued stridently to have the statue removed, and three of them supported keeping the statue, you would have been able to knock me over with a feather,” Supervisor Michael R. Turner (D-Ashburn) said. “…There has been a sea change in America over the last month and a half, and I, for one, am very humble and proud to be part of it.”

Dueling Narratives

Renss Greene/Loudoun Now

The “Silent Sentinel,” a statue of a Confederate soldier that stands in front of the Loudoun County courthouse, is expected to come down by Labor Day.

“Why would we keep a statue that symbolizes hate and division right in front of the Loudoun County courthouse?”

— Erin Coleman, Ashburn

“The tides of time are always erasing our memories of the past.

But a statue is an anchor against those tides.

It testifies that these people were real.”

— Supervisor Caleb A. Kershner (R-Catoctin)

Randall, who has argued against the statue for years, counted the unanimous votes to see the statue removed tearfully.

A ‘Sea Change’ “I come up here in support of George Floyd, and I can tell you right now, if he wouldn’t have died, none of us would be here talking about this,” Leesburg resident Steven Ross told supervisors last week.

“And I’ve been thinking about this. This is some type of vending machine type of situation, where we have to feed quarters into America to be heard, and instead of quarters, we’re feeding dead, lifeless Black bodies into this vending machine so that we can have an opportunity to come out here and speak. And I hope that George Floyd is the last person, the last coin we have to feed into this machine.”

Ross was part of the overwhelming majority of people who spoke to the board during July 7 public comment sessions who supported removing the statue.

He said when he moved to Leesburg 20 years ago, “I see this spectacle that’s out in front of the courthouse, and I think about this: What if they would have won? Where would you be, Chair Randall? Where would you be? Would you still be a slave? Because that’s what they fought for.”

“Why would we keep a statue that symbolizes hate and division right in front of the Loudoun County courthouse?” said Erin Coleman of Ashburn. “A building where justice is intended to be served evenly and fairly, which is right next to a town square that is meant to be a gathering place for all of its people? These are hypocrisies that can no longer be ignored.”

“This is not a political issue; it is a human rights issue,” said Mathilde Verdier, also of Ashburn. “Those who built Confederate monuments during the Jim Crow era did so intentionally to perpetuate white supremacy, and let’s be clear, they were on the wrong side of history.”

“Six months, ago if you told me that we

Randall called the argument that taking down the statue erases history “ridiculous.”

“History resides in libraries and classrooms and museums and books and print and film. I’m the daughter and the wife of military. I lived in quite a few places before settling down, and most of my growing up years were in Denver, CO. And I can tell you, I learned every bit of Civil War history, and I didn’t have to go look at the statue to depend on learning that history.”

But, she argued, even if it could erase history—she would do that.

“If taking the statue down could erase history it means that you erase mothers, fathers, sons and daughters being stolen from their homeland and being put in bondage,” Randall said. “You erase women being raped and having their children stripped from them. You erase people working like animals from sunup to sundown. You erase beatings and terrors and lynchings. If taking that statue down could erase the long standing residue of the original sin of slavery, and all that it has wrought, and all that it still [wreaks on] African Americans—if taking that statue down could erase all that, I would be personally traveling through the south tearing down statues with my bare hands.”

But instead, she argued, taking the statue down “corrects history.”

“It’s the putting up of the statue that actually altered history,” Randall said. “What taking down the statue does is this: it brings some level of comfort, that the ancestors of the people who were enslaved don’t have to look at the monuments to the enslavers, or those who fought to keep the institution of slavery intact.”

Supervisor Sylvia R. Glass (D-Broad Run) spoke of her own’s family’s history in civil rights work, including her father’s time as president of the Prince William County NAACP, and her older siblings’ time as the first black students in Prince William County schools.

“I grew up hearing stories from my older sister about how she was screamed at by parents and students at her school because SENTINEL continues on page 7

Supervisors Join Call for Snyder to Change Team Name

“Dentistry with a Gentle Touch.”

Atiyeh Emam, DDS, PLLC

BY RENSS GREENE

rgreene@loudounnow.com

County Chair Phyllis J. Randall (DAt Large) and Board of Supervisors Vice Chairman Koran T. Saines (D-Sterling) sent a letter to Washington Redskins owner Dan Snyder encouraging him to change the team’s name.

“Because you have been such an integral part of Loudoun, you are aware we are a welcoming community with residents from diverse backgrounds,” the letter reads. “We are proud that people of all races, ethnicities, differing abilities, religious beliefs and socio-economic backgrounds call Loudoun home. With that in mind, we were pleased to hear that you are reviewing the name of your football team and are in support of changing the team name.”

After long saying he would “never” change the Redskins name, Snyder announced Monday that the team will change its name. The organization has faced criticism about the name for years.

The push for a name change strengthened this month as the team’s marketing partners joined the chorus of critics, and national retailers dropped the team’s merchandise from their inventory.

Although they are named for Washington, DC and play at FedEx Field in Prince Georges County, MD, the Redskins are a Loudoun business, headquartered in Ashburn at Inova Sports Performance Center at Redskins Park. They also have training facilities there.

Until recently, Loudoun County had a marketing agreement with the Redskins, and in 2012 signed an incentive package to keep the team’s headquarters in Loudoun through 2020. The team first came to Loudoun in 1992.

Although only Randall and Saines signed the letter, they garnered support last week from the 6-3 Democratic majority on the Board of Supervisors for it.

“I think that the Board of Supervisors has a responsibility to speak out when we believe things are happening that are incorrect,” Randall said. “I also think that the Washington team is—if you’ve ever gone to their park or met their players or know what they do in our schools, they do great, great work in our community. They are very involved in our community, you see them around and every day, they’ve given to the schools, they give to nonprofits, they’re really, really involved. It is actually a disservice to the members of the

The name of Redskins Park in Ashburn could soon be changing as the team prepares to change its name under pressure from advertisers and retailers.

team for them to have this name.”

Saines encouraged the team to follow the example of Florida State University, which has maintained a partnership with the Seminole tribe from which it takes its mascot’s name. The tribe has expressed formal support for the use of their name for the mascot.

Supervisor Juli E. Briskman (D-Algonkian) said, “I cringe every time I see the cultural appropriation imagery.”

“As America continues its reckoning on race, steps such as this will show that change is possible, and will be demanded, actually,” Briskman said.

But some supervisors said the county board should not involve itself in the issue.

“This is a private matter, this is an entity that has already declared that they’re going to be looking into it themselves,” said Supervisor Caleb A. Kershner (R-Catoctin). “It’s something that I think is largely political, and I don’t think it helps the citizens of Loudoun.”

“Whether it’s offensive to me or not, I don’t think that the Board of Supervisors as a whole should be involving itself in telling private business what their name should be,” said Supervisor Tony R. Buffington (R-Blue Ridge).

“I typically have two tests with these sorts of things: is this in our purview, and is it going to make any difference,” said Supervisor Matthew F. Letourneau (R-Dulles). “And my conclusion on this one is no and no.”

He also said, “I have a concern when government begins to tell private organizations what they should and shouldn’t do when there is no stake, and there is no partnership, and there is not an agreement in place.” n

Loudoun Medical Reserve Corps volunteers and medical personnel man free drive-through COVID-19 testing tents at Philip A. Bolen Memorial Park in Leesburg on May 20.

personnel have volunteered more than 7,400 hours, saving the county more than $200,000.

“In addition to dealing with the current situation, we really rely on the MRC when it comes to our influenza vaccination campaigns and we’ll be focusing on that this fall because we want to get as many folks as possible vaccinated,” Goodfriend stated. “And when the time comes, hopefully, for coronavirus vaccination campaigns, we would look to the MRC for help.”

More information about the MRC, including an online registration form, can be found at loudoun.gov/mrc. n

Free Rabies Vaccinations Offered July 17 On Friday, July 17, Loudoun County Animal Services will host a free rabies vaccination event for pets. The drivethrough clinic is open to all county residents and will be at Philip A. Bolen Memorial Park in the parking lot near Field 12 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. or while supplies last.

Dogs receiving vaccinations at this clinic also will receive a free one-year Loudoun County license.

“We know that COVID-19 has put significant strain on families in our community, so we are grateful to be able to offer this free event,” stated Animal Services Community Relations Manager Talia Czapski. “Even pets in a secure yard or on a leash can have an unexpected encounter with wildlife, leaving them potentially exposed or in mandatory quarantine if not vaccinated. We want to be able to help people keep their pets, and their families, as safe as possible, during these already challenging times.”

Vaccinations are open to all cats and

dogs over 12 weeks of age. Cats should be in secure carriers and dogs on a 6-foot or shorter leash, not a retractable leash.

Previous vaccination records are required for those wishing to receive a three-year vaccine. Only one-year dog licenses will be distributed at this clinic. Those wishing to purchase a two- or three-year license may do so online after the event at loudoun.gov/4309/Purchase-a-Dog-License.

Loudoun Animal Services’ first completely free clinic is made possible through donations to the Animal Program Trust Fund. All participants are asked to remain in their vehicles, and face coverings and social distancing are required. Participants are asked to bring a piece of mail or driver’s license with their current address on it.

Drivers should enter Bolen Park on Crosstrail Boulevard from Sycolin Road.

Sentinel continued from page 4 she didn’t belong with the white children,” Glass said. “To me, the Confederate monument has just replaced those screams, telling people of color in Loudoun we do not belong.”

Vice Chairman Koran T. Saines (D-Sterling) argued the statue is a symbol of the Jim Crow era of legally enforced racial segregation, and said “it’s not coincidence that this statue was placed at the heart of the county seat, and a place where many citizens would have to go for a variety of reasons.”

He also pointed out that although Loudoun had residents fighting on both sides of the war, the statue only honors Confederate soldiers.

“Even if you personally may not find it offensive, keep in mind the courthouse serves citizens of all backgrounds,” Saines said. “All who enter the courthouse ground should feel welcome. We should not have a statue that there that offends, insults, the citizens of Loudoun.”

“I think it is very difficult for someone with my color skin to fully understand and empathize with someone whose skin is darker, who is so deeply hurt by a celebration of a government and a war and an effort to keep dark-skinned people en-

slaved,” said Supervisor Kristen C. Umstattd (D-Leesburg). She added, “we have to be able to put ourselves in the shoes of other people and see that these symbols of a system that kept their ancestors enslaved are just devastating to them today.”

And Supervisor Matthew F. Letourneau (R-Dulles), a Massachussetts native, said it was “a shock” to move to Virginia and see Confederate leaders memorialized.

“With time we tend to see some things a little differently, and this is one of those things. And as I listen to my colleagues talk about this and what it means to them and how they view it, it’s persuasive to me that we shouldn’t have something in that location that causes a group of our citizens to feel that way. It’s just not a polite, not a nice thing to do.”

He also said, “the slope is only as slippery as we choose to make it.”

“I, for one, am not going to support eradicating celebrations of every individual in American history who did something wrong, because all of them did, and it was a different time,” Letourneau said. “The Founding Fathers were very flawed in many ways, but they still created this ideal of a nation, and here we are. I think when we’re talking about individuals who are being celebrated specifically because of something like the Civil War, that’s a different story.”

Supervisor Caleb A. Kershner (R-Cato-

PAGE 7

ctin) has remained the monument’s most ardent apologist on the board. While he agreed that “legally, if indeed this is the statue of the … United Daughters of the Confederacy, then I think we have no other choice but then to adopt this motion,” he argued against bringing it down. He denied that the statue’s origin is rooted in white supremacy.

“Clearly, the ‘Silent Sentinel’ statue is a memorial to a group of Loudoun residents, who lived right here in our County and died in our American Civil War,” Kershner said. “They were on the wrong side of a very critical issue in history, but they were still Americans. The tides of time are always erasing our memories of the past. But a statue is an anchor against those tides. It testifies that these people were real.”

He also pointed out that, historically, Democrats implemented segregation laws, opposed Civil Rights segregation, and said, “I have yet to see a single one of my colleagues say anything about Governor Northam wearing blackface while standing next to a hooded Klan member.”

Randall pointed out every Democrat currently serving on the board called for Northam’s resignation, and pointed out the reversal in position on social issues the two parties have had since that time: “If the last thing the Republican Party says that they’ve done for minorities was done in 1865, then

you might want to update your résumé a little bit. As Janet Jackson says, what have you done for me lately? This is not really a party issue, this is a human issue.”

Kershner also likened “the bloody and noble fight to free the African-American” to efforts to restrict access to abortion today. “In both cases, one person is allowed to dictate the fate of another, simply because they are black, or because they are unborn,” Kershner said.

More to Come?

The statue may not be the last symbol with ties to white supremacy to come down in Loudoun. Kershner also pointed to former Democratic senator and governor Harry Flood Byrd, who is best known for leading “massive resistance,” a set of laws designed to prevent school integration that resulted in many Virginia schools being closed and a long aftermath of practical racial segregation in school.

“I’d like to thank Supervisor Kershner for reminding us about Sen. Byrd, because I have a feeling that will certainly be on our list, because several things are named after that person,” retorted Supervisor Juli E. Briskman (D-Algonkian).

Rt. 7 between the Shenandoah River and Fairfax County is named Harry Flood Byrd Highway, so named in 1968 two years after his death. n

Town Council to Interview Attorney Applicants

Renss Greene/Loudoun Now

Leesburg Police Chief Greg Brown keeps watch during the “I Can’t Breathe” protest that packed downtown Leesburg on Sunday, May 31.

Police Chief Says Department Policies Address Brutality Concerns

BY KARA C. RODRIGUEZ krodriguez@loudounnow.com

Leesburg Police Chief Gregory Brown said his department goes above and beyond the recommendations laid out by a national movement to address police brutality, and has for many years.

But according to Brown’s presentation, the department meets seven of the eight policies of the campaign.

Brown addressed the Town Council during its Monday night work session and responded directly to the 8 Can’t Wait campaign, which urges jurisdictions to implement eight policies regarding use of force that organizer Campaign Zero says can decrease police violence by 72 percent.

The movement has gained national attention since the death of George Floyd on May 25, at the hands of Minneapolis, MN, police officers.

When he read the policies endorsed by 8 Can’t Wait, Brown said he “had a small smile on my face to know that the Leesburg Police Department not only complies with all eight, but our policies exceed that.” He said both the department and the Northern Virginia Criminal Justice Academy, of which his department is one of 17 member agencies, has been in compliance with the campaign’s policies for at least two

decades, predating his time as police chief.

Brown did a point-by-point comparison of his department’s policies with those suggested by 8 Can’t Wait. Campaign Zero calls for a ban on chokeholds and strangleholds; requiring de-escalation; requiring a warning before shooting; exhausting all alternatives before shooting; a duty to intervene; a ban on shooting at moving vehicles; establishing a use of force continuum; and requiring all use of force to be reported.

Brown said while the department already had a Duty to Intervene policy— which requires officers to stop or attempt to stop another officer when force is being inappropriately applied or is no longer required—in place, he recently worked with Interim Town Attorney Martin Crim to strengthen it.

However he also said the department no longer employs a use of force continuum, policies that describe an escalating series of actions officers may take. Brown said that was an antiquated practice. The department requires reporting for all use of force by its officers, with a final review of each incident by Brown.

“Tracking use of force can sometimes help us to see if there’s a pattern being developed,” with an officer, he said.

Brown underscored the importance of relationships and building that trust with the community. He said he was proud of

the department’s widely regarded community policing program, put in place by his predecessor Chief Joseph Price. Each academy class of the Northern Virginia Criminal Justice Academy comes to Leesburg each session to study the department’s community policing model.

“I can’t take credit for that but am very proud we have maintained that over the years,” Brown said.

In response to a question from Councilman Neil Steinberg, Brown said he took umbrage with the call of protesters nationwide to “defund the police” and instead have government resources reallocated to allow other agencies to perform some of the duties undertaken by police officers.

Brown said council members would be amazed at the number and the types of calls the department receives on a daily basis, and also pointed out how expectations of officers have changed over the years. He said the amount of training required for police officers has more than doubled since when he was in the academy.

In early June, the department published responses to a list of questions posed by community members nationwide in the wake of Floyd’s death. Those responses, which also list off department policies, can be found at leesburgva.gov/Home/Components/News/News/8745/29. n

The Town Council will convene two closed-door special meetings this week to interview applicants for the town attorney position.

According to a press release, the council will convene a special meeting at 9:30 a.m. Thursday, July 16, and immediately will enter a closed session to meet with staff, consultants, and applicants. Council will adjourn the meeting until the following day at 10 a.m., at which time it will reconvene, remaining in closed session. At the conclusion of the July 17 meeting, the Town Council will certify the closed session before finally adjourning the special meeting.

Ten individuals have applied for the open position, but it has not been made public how many will be interviewed by council members.

The council has been assisted by an executive search firm as it looks for a replacement for town attorney Barbara Notar, who was dismissed by the council in February after seven years in the position. Martin Crim has been serving as interim town attorney since the council approved a separation agreement with Notar.

Human Resources Director Joshua Didawick previously said hopes were to announce a hire by later this month or early August.

Sculpture Dedication Planned Saturday The newest round of sculptures at Raflo Park will be unveiled during a ceremony this Saturday.

The Raflo Park sculpture garden, ArtsPARKs, is a collaboration between the Commission on Public Art and the Friends of Leesburg Public Arts. The first two-year sculpture installation was unveiled in July 2016.

Council to Revisit NAACP Agreement

BY KARA C. RODRIGUEZ krodriguez@loudounnow.com

Almost a year after the Leesburg Town Council faced strong criticism from the Loudoun Chapter of the NAACP, council members are planning to reach out to the organization about steps it can take to improve a Memorandum of Understanding they signed in 2018.

The council last summer appointed two council members, Vice Mayor Marty Martinez and Councilman Neil Steinberg, to meet with three representatives of the NAACP’s Executive Committee at the request of the organization. NAACP board members’ concerns at the Aug. 12, 2019 meeting largely centered on the criticism that statements authored by Councilman Tom Dunn were offensive. The Juneteenth proclamation delivered to the NAACP was one of them.

During the meeting last summer, NAACP representatives called on the

council to review its formal memorandum of understanding with the organization, an agreement forged among the NAACP, Town Council and Leesburg Police Department in 2018. There was also a call for the council to enhance its ethics policy, which is expected to be the subject of an upcoming council vote.

Councilman Ron Campbell said during Monday night’s work session that reviewing those recommendations from last summer was “long past due.”

“There is work to be done is my major point,” he said. “If we don’t start doing that work we become negligent.”

Campbell also pointed out how the landscape of the country had changed dramatically in the past year with the movement to address racial injustice and police brutality, spurred largely by the May 25 death of George Floyd at the hands of Minneapolis, MN police officers.

Steinberg, however, suggested the ball was in the NAACP’s court, and

that the council had never heard back on specific suggestions to enhance the agreement. He also pointed to last November’s elections and the COVID-19 pandemic as getting in the way of progress.

Martinez said the council needs more information from the NAACP. “We need to know what they want and what their expectations are,” he said.

A majority of the council favored sending a letter to the NAACP requesting follow-up before to scheduling another meeting between the two bodies, with the entire council attending this time.

The current MOU spells out several mutual goals among the groups, including communication and transparency; community intervention and awareness; and community outreach. It also assigns what specific roles the Town of Leesburg, Leesburg Police Department, and the NAACP will play in achieving those goals. n

Youth Soccer Felony Embezzlement Case Delayed Substitute General District Court Judge Thomas J. Kelley last Thursday agreed to continue the preliminary hearing for Jeffrey and Berkeley Kern—the couple charged with stealing more than $50,000 from a youth soccer club—to Aug. 26.

The Kerns are charged with seven counts of felony embezzlement for stealing from the Old Dominion Football Club—five counts against Jeffrey and two against Berkley. They face 1-20 years in prison for each count.

Jeffrey, 40, worked as a travel team coach with the Old Dominion Football Club. Berkeley, 47, volunteered with the club and was an authorized user of one of its accounts. When the club discovered irregularities in its accounts, the Sheriff ’s Office’s Financial Crimes Unit conducted an investigation and determined the couple had used club accounts for personal use on multiple occasions between 2015 and December 2018.

The couple surrendered to authorities in December 2019 and were charged, arrested and released on bond.

In February, a judge agreed to continue the case from Feb. 10 to March 31. The preliminary hearing was again continued in mid-March when Virginia Supreme Court Chief Justice Donald W. Lemons issued an order of judicial emergency that closed courts down nearly entirely in response to the emerging COVID-19 pan-

mundo, family members said Menendez had been missing for more than 24 hours before his body was found. His parents described him as a happy, popular person without known enemies.

A GoFundMe page established by Menendez’s cousin by Tuesday had raised nearly $13,000 to cover the family’s funeral expenses.

Callers wishing to remain anonymous are asked to call Loudoun Crime Solvers at 703777-1919 or submit a tip through the Loudoun County Sheriff ’s Office app. n demic. Kelley last week said the continuation to August would be the last time the case would be pushed back.

Manslaughter Indictment Issued in Fatal 2019 Crash A Loudoun grand jury on Monday handed up an involuntary manslaughter indictment against an Ashburn man involved in fatal Belmont Ridge Road crash last summer.

Cimran Awil Sabriye, 19, was being held in custody pending a bond hearing set for Thursday. He also is charged with misdemeanor reckless driving.

The crash occurred Aug. 14, 2019, at 7:20 a.m. on Belmont Ridge Road near Legacy Park Drive. Investigators said a dark gray, 4-door 2012 Volkswagen CC was traveling south on Belmont Ridge Road when it ran off the left side of the road, went over the curb, through the median and into the northbound lanes and struck a northbound 2013 Subaru headon.

The driver of the Subaru, Ammie K. Cho, died at the scene. Her daughter, who was secured in a child seat, was transported to Inova Loudoun Hospital for treatment of serious injuries.

Former NFL Player Pleads Guilty to Defrauding WMATA A former National Football League player pleaded guilty last week to orchestrating a conspiracy in which his Leesburg company defrauded the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority of more than $300,000.

Brian Carpenter, 59, of Centreville, played for the Washington Redskins, New York Giants, and Buffalo Bills in the early 1980s and was the owner and operator the Flintstone Group in Leesburg.

According to court documents, the Flintstone Group facilitated the sale and distribution of janitorial products, including products that were specifically labeled and created from Carpenter’s time in the NFL, including an enzyme solvent named “Blitz” and degreaser citrus solvent called “DG-28.”

Carpenter established a relationship

with at least two WMATA employees who were assigned agency-issued credit cards as part of their roles as assistant superintendents for the maintenance and custodial services division. The WMATA employees permitted Carpenter to charge their credit cards for supplies that were never in fact delivered. Carpenter then paid kick-back cash payments to the employees. To circumvent WMATA’s internal credit card controls, Carpenter used at least 10 different companies to process transactions on the credit cards and then provided the WMATA employees with fraudulent invoices representing that WMATA paid for and received all of the products it ordered.

When WMATA’s Office of Inspector General began investigating the case, Carpenter provided investigators with altered invoices to make it appear that he had ordered or substituted all of the products that were charged to WMATA. In total, WMATA spent at least $310,000 on products that were never delivered, the investigation found.

Carpenter pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit wire fraud and faces a maximum penalty of 20 years in prison when sentenced on Dec. 15.

Judge Reduces Sterling Man’s Charges in Fatal Shooting Case

BY PATRICK SZABO pszabo@loudounnow.com

General District Court Judge Deborah C. Welsh on Tuesday amended charges against the 18-year-old man charged in connection with a March Sterling homicide.

Bryce T. Thomas was arrested on March 31 and charged with felony possession with intent to distribute marijuana and possession of a firearm by an adjudicated delinquent following a March 8 shooting in the area of Rusty Blackhaw Square that left Jeremiah D. Gray, a 20-year-old man from Temple Hills, MD, dead.

Under Virginia law, any person under the age of 29 who was adjudicated delinquent as a juvenile at or above the age of 14 and was convicted of a violent felony faces a mandatory minimum prison sentence of five years in prison. Welsh agreed with the request by the Commonwealth’s Attorney’s Office to strike the word “violent” from a description of Bryce’s prior felony conviction. However, she acknowl-

edged the juvenile conviction occurred within the past 10 years, meaning Bryce faces a mandatory minimum prison sentence of two years.

Welsh also agreed to reduce Bryce’s felony possession charge to unlawful possession of marijuana, which carries a maximum punishment of a $25 fine, as opposed to a prison sentence of 1-10 years.

Bryce’s case will now move to the Circuit Court for trial.

Loudoun County Sheriff ’s Office detectives determined the case surrounding Gray’s homicide involved a prearranged meeting between Thomas and a female.

When the female arrived with Gray, an altercation ensued between Gray and Thomas, which erupted in gunfire. The female fled and was located by investigators the following day.

Thomas has been held without bond at the Loudoun County Adult Detention Center since March.

Sheriff ’s Office Public Information Officer Michele Bowman confirmed on Monday that charges related to the fatal shooting have yet to be filed in the case. n

Rachel Roberts, Leesburg’s own “Flower Lady,” has been raising money for Loudoun Hunger Relief since 2012 through her flower stand on Edwards Ferry Road. This year, she passed $100,000 raised for the hunger nonprofit.

By the end of last year’s growing season, she had raised $90,000 since she began putting the stand in her driveway. This year, she has already raised another $10,000—a record year so far.

According to Loudoun Hunger Relief, that amounts to 400,000 meals for people in need over the last eight years.

DeButts Receives Ampersand Award The Ampersand Pantry Project free lunch program passed a milestone last week when it provided its 20,000th free meal since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. The project is made possible by a dedicated core of volunteers, restaurants and donors.

Organizers say one volunteer stands out. Hamilton native Richard deButts was presented with the Ampersand Award during a July 5 celebration at the Project’s temporary headquarters on East Market Street in Leesburg.

The free lunch program is an expansion of the Ampersand Pantry Project’s initial effort, a little free pantry stocked with nonperishable food, diapers, and hygiene supplies on Edwards Ferry Road in Leesburg.

The Project’s founder, Leesburg attorney Peter Burnett, built the pantry and installed it next to Crossroads Baptist Church earlier this year. When COVID-19 put many people out of work, the project expanded.

DeButts played a critical role in converting the former Tastee Freez restaurant on East Market Street for high-volume, no-contact food distribution. He installed the roller conveyor system to provide contactless delivery of lunches, diapers and other supplies to people coming by the drive-through window. He also helped with many other tasks, including hanging signs and banners, setting up a generator

to run fans for the volunteers working in the old building, and providing tables and chairs for lunch assembly.

DeButts also has solicited cash donations and in-kind donations, arranged for the delivery of thousands of fresh apples for the lunches, and picked up the lunches donated by the Hamilton Station Gastropub near his home. He manages the daily meal count and oversees the onsite contribution box he arranged to have made and installed

by Purcellville welder Steve Fleming.

The lunch program will continue as long as the COVID-19 pandemic impacts Leesburg residents, and as long as funds to operate it are available from the generosity of the community.

On Tuesday, July 7, 2020, Earl Francisco Bloch peacefully passed away at Reston Hospital, Virginia, after a brief illness. He was a loving husband and father, an impassioned immunologist and educator. He was born in St. Croix, Virgin Islands, August 26, 1941. For the past 22 years he resided with his wife, Angela and daughter Laurel in Herndon, Virginia.

Earl graduated from Morris High School, Bronx, New York. He earned his bachelor’s degree from City College of New York, master’s from Hunter College and his Ph.D. from Cornell University College of Veterinary Medicine. He was a member of the faculty of the Department of Microbiology, College of Medicine at Howard University, from 1978 until his retirement in 2017.

Upon retirement, Earl returned to his roots in chemistry and physics and formed the Quantum KEM Biotechnology Corporation, with the mission of safely developing novel and precise drugs to treat and cure a wide range of diseases ranging from amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) to Covid-19.

Earl was a man of great energy, optimism, kindness, enthusiasm, creativity, and intelligence. These qualities were exemplified in everything he did, whether designing experiments, preparing for lectures, looking for a plumber, remodeling his home, grilling food or starting a post

retirement career. His lectures to medical and graduate students were detailed and clear because of his use of his legendary drawings and study guides - tools he continued to use up until the time of his death.

He was nearly always available to help students reinforce their understanding of the complexities of immunology. Their appreciation was reflected in the numerous teaching awards and accolades he received from students. He published many peer reviewed articles in scientific journals, and he developed an internet-based study guide for students from high school through professional school.

He was the second child of Karl and Lolita Barnes Bloch, brother to Lois Bloch Simon, Karl H. Bloch (deceased) and Marian Bloch Simmons (deceased).

He is survived by his wife of 35 years, Dr. Angela Love, and daughter Laurel Bloch, both of Herndon, Virginia; his sister, Lois Bloch Simon and brother in law William Simon of Laurelton, New York, and brother in law Howard J. Love, III, of Durham, North Carolina. He also leaves to cherish his memory many nieces, nephews, other relatives and friends.

A private ceremony will be held July 16.

Plans are underway to host a larger, more inclusive celebration of Earl’s life in 2021.

In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Dr. Earl F. Bloch Memorial Scholarship Fund, Wells Fargo Bank, 1498 North Point Village Center, Reston, Virginia. 20194.

LOVETTSVILLE Schilling Steps Down from Planning Commission

Patrick Szabo/Loudoun Now

Purcellville Deputy Police Chief Dave Dailey writes the department’s police report for week ending July 10.

With A Bit of Creative Writing, Purcellville Police Reports Captivate Community

BY PATRICK SZABO

pszabo@loudounnow.com

Purcellville residents have longed turned to the town’s police reports for updates on public safety in their community.

But lately, more have come to appreciate the special flair given to the summary of typically mundane incidents in the quiet town.

Deputy Police Chief Dave Dailey has been writing the Police Department’s weekly crime reports for about a year.

Over that time, he has added humor into a few of the incidents he has written about—minor incidents he said have lent themselves to the silliness, like the time he wrote about two people who got into a fight over the last Brillo pad at 7-Eleven.

Dailey said his primary goal is to keep residents updated on public safety matters. He said that if it takes a bit of humor to do that, at least in non-serious situations, then that’s what he’ll deliver.

“That’s our goal, is to be able to provide information,” he said. “It’s trying to put a human face on law enforcement.”

On June 19, Dailey reported a road rage incident during which a man driving

“It’s trying to put a human face on law enforcement.”

— Major Dave Dailey Purcellville Deputy Police Chief westbound on Rt. 7 became enraged by a woman travelling 15 mph below the speed limit. According to Dailey’s report, “for reason only known to [the male driver], [he] felt compelled to express his displeasure that another vehicle had the temerity to drive slower than the posted speed limit by flashing a one finger salute commonly known as ‘flipping the bird.’”

Dailey, a history buff, then gave a paragraph of background on “the middle finger salute”—noting that historians have found it to be a sign of disrespect as long ago as the 4th century B.C. when Greek philosopher Diogenes displayed his “middle digit” to stateman Demosthenes.

“There is no evidence to support that either was operating a chariot during this exchange,” Dailey wrote.

On July 3, Dailey reported a June 28 verbal dispute between a former couple that continued to live together. According to Dailey’s report, the woman brought home a “gentlemen caller.”

“The argument was verbal only, mostly from the male who was upset over unrequited love and the challenging living arrangement,” he wrote.

Dailey said those types of incidents— the ones that end with little consequence—allow him to add in a bit of creativity, which could help to diffuse similar situations in the future.

“I want them to think about the story I told and laugh and let it go,” he said. “I just want people to think about that next time it happens.”

Those types of humorous reports are gathering a good deal of positive feedback from residents. Dailey said the number of subscribers to the department’s police reports increased by 58 percent overnight REPORTS continues on page 16

The Lovettsville Planning Commission appointed Greg Ratner as chairman and Bob Custard as vice chairman, following the departure of former Chairwoman Shiva Schilling and former Commissioner Will Hyde.

According to Mayor Nate Fontaine’s July 10 email newsletter, Schilling and Hyde decided to pursue other opportunities. They both have years of experience on the commission and helped to implement projects like the Town Center Development, the Town Center Commercial Building, the German-styled 7-Eleven and the Comprehensive Planning Process that resulted in the commission being awarded the American Planning Association’s Dogwood Award with the title of Virginia’s Planning Commission of the Year.

Fontaine wrote that the Town Council would recognize Schilling for her efforts at the July 16 meeting.

The commission will be busy working on the Transportation Master Plan and will soon start the planning process for the next Comprehensive Plan update.

Town Seeks Volunteers for Committees The Town of Lovettsville is searching for residents to fill positions on several town committees and subcommittees.

On the Western Loudoun Community Connect Facebook group, one commenter wrote that reading the reports are like reading episodes of “Drunk History.” Another commenter wrote that the reports are more than updates on public safety— they also are history lessons and help to enrich vocabulary. Yet another commenter wrote “I’ve laughed so hard that there are tears in my eyes. I need to sign up for these alerts asap!”

Police Chief Cynthia McAlister said Dailey is able to strike a balance between seriousness and humor in his reports—a balance that can be made in a community that features such a relatively low level of crime.

The National Council for Home Safety and Security earlier this year named Purcellville as the safest community in Virginia in 2020. According to that announcement, the town’s crime rate is a mere 5.85 per 1,000 residents. According to FBI Uniform Crime Report statistics, 59 crimes were reported in the town in 2018—61 crimes fewer than those reported in the town with the next lowest rate. n

A Middleburg-area brewery proposal has sparked concern from neighbors and is now under scrutiny by the town.

The Middleburg Town Council last Thursday night agreed to send a letter to the Virginia Alcoholic Beverage Control Authority expressing concerns about the proposed 10-acre Fueled Farm Brewery along Rt. 50 east of town. Members want more information about the project, such as the impact it could have on area roads, and also are concerned about objections being raised by neighbors.

During their presentation to the council in May, the owners indicated their neighbors were onboard with the project.

But a month later, adjacent property owner Kimberly Skelly told the council that she and others were concerned about how the brewery could change the character of the surrounding area and filed objections with the ABC. She urged the council to file its own objection.

Skelly, who lives on a 7-acre horse farm neighboring the property to the west of the proposed brewery site, said at the June 25 Town Council meeting that the thought of parking 150 cars and bringing in upwards of 300 people to the proposed brewery makes it “impossible to demon-

strate that that will not disturb my peace and tranquility nor devalue my farm as a small horse farm surrounded by other small horse farms—what I would consider appropriate use of this agricultural residential area.”

Last Thursday, Town Attorney Martin Crim said the state allows any locality to comment on a proposed ABC license— whether the issuing of that license would create a health, safety or moral issue for town residents.

According to a July 9 staff report, town leaders aren’t just concerned about how the brewery owners Scott Buzzelli and Brian Yarnal represented their neighbors’ feelings in their initial meeting, but also about how their presentation lacked details and how the brewery might affect area public safety and traffic and quality of life.

Councilwoman Cindy Pearson said the town needs to consider how the proposed brewery might impact traffic.

“We need to be concerned about our town’s citizens and how this affects us and them,” she said.

Littleton said the Town of Middleburg has a strong business community and a great relationship with it. He said the town government needs to foster that community in the right way and not become hostile toward bringing in “the right type of businesses.” Fueled Farm Brewery

would not be located within the town’s corporate limits.

“We do have to be very, very careful,” Littleton said.

Littleton and Town Manager Danny Davis drafted the letter and showed it to council members before sending it to ABC earlier this week.

As for the objections to ABC, Public Relations Manager Dawn Eischen said ABC is in the process of submitting feedback to its Hearings Division, which will determine if a hearing is necessary. She said that if a hearing is scheduled, ABC will set up an informal conference with Buzzelli and Yarnal and the Skellys, along with anyone else who files an objection to the Fueled Farm project. At the hearing, an ABC officer will review the submitted information, hear each side and make a decision on whether or not the state should issue the brewery an ABC license.

Buzzelli and Yarnal may appeal that decision if it’s not in their favor.

One other brewery has recently been chased off site by objections from neighbors to the ABC. B Chord Brewery faced a protracted battle from 2015 to 2017 when people objected to its first planned site in Bluemont; although the brewery’s owners had already begun work preparing the site in Bluemont, they were forced to find a new spot, the brewery’s current home on Williams Gap Road. n

Town Cancels Remaining LOVE Summer Events The LOVE Summer Committee has canceled the remainder of this year’s LOVE Summer events, which included a lineup of outdoor movies and concerts on the Town Green.

The cancellation was made in light of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Mayor Nate Fontaine in his July 2 email newsletter thanked committee members Jesse Cedoz, Will Hyde, Jim McIntyre, Tiffany Dunlap, Mike Dunlap and Chris Gardner for their efforts this year.

MIDDLEBURG Miller Elected Vice Mayor; Kirk Resigns Role After 14 Years The Middleburg Town Council elected Councilman Philip Miller as vice mayor Thursday night.

Miller, who has served on the council since 2016, was nominated by his immediate predecessor, Councilwoman Darlene Kirk, who is serving her fifth consecutive four-year council term and previously served as vice mayor for seven consecutive two-year terms from 2006 to 2020. Kirk said she needed to step back a bit and that it would not be fair to be re-elected as vice mayor and have to miss meetings while serving in the role.

She said Miller is “level-headed” and “steady” and always has ideas. Miller said the town is in a “good place” at the moment and that it’s constantly inundated with potential dangers, such as the COVID-19 pandemic and the county’s rezoning policies that are allowing denser development to encroach on the rural west. He said it would be important to have a lot of energy, especially because the town is taking on many projects, like the move to a new town office.

“We’ve really got to buckle down and keep pushing forward,” he said.

Miller’s term as vice mayor will expire June 30, 2022.

Town Considers Options for Summer Sidewalk Sale The Town of Middleburg may extend this year’s Summer Sidewalk Sale by two days and implement several new procedures to ensure the safety of shoppers amid the COVID-19 pandemic.

Middleburg Business and Professional Association President Punkin Lee told the Town Council last Thursday night about the association’s plans for the 19th annual sidewalk sale, which will be held at the end

of July this year.

Lee said the association might encourage in-town residents to shop from Wednesday to Friday, July 29-31, to keep larger crowds of people from gathering on Saturday and Sunday, Aug. 1-2. She said they’re also eyeing senior-shopping hours in the mornings each day and installing two hand-washing stations and multiple hand sanitizer dispensers.

The town is also considering installing temporary barriers in the parking spots in front of the shops located on both sides of Washington Street between Liberty Street and Madison Street and along the northern side of Rt. 50 between Pendleton Street and Pickering Street. Doing that, Lee said, would allow for more room for shoppers to social distance.

Town Manager Danny Davis said those barriers would cost less than $3,000 and that the town could share the cost with the professional association.

“Our goal is to have safety first and make people feel welcome,” Lee said.

Rt. 50 Intersections to Close on 3 Weekends For three weekends between now and August, Rt. 50 through the Town of Middleburg will close for A&M Concrete to repair crosswalks.

This weekend, July 17-20, work will be performed at The Plains Road, Pickering Street and Pendleton Street. Next weekend, July 24-27, work will be performed at Madison Street and Liberty Street. Two weeks after that, Aug. 7-10, work will be performed at Hamilton Street and Jay Street.

The closures and detours will begin at 10 p.m. on Friday and continue to 5 a.m. on Monday each of those weekends. The closures and work will remain in place for the entire weekend.

Pedestrian access will be maintained.

Loudoun COVID-19 Numbers Holding Steady in Phase 3 As Loudoun enters the third week of Virginia’s Phase Three relaxation of COVID-19 related business restrictions, its community health statistics are tracking well.

As of Tuesday, the average number of new daily cases, 29.4, was the lowest since mid-June. The average percent of daily positive test results, 6 percent, was the lowest since testing began in March.

The number of fatal cases was 99 and the county was amid the longest streak of days without a coronavirus death since early June.

As COVID-19 cases spike in other states, Virginia is performing well. Gov. Ralph Northam on Tuesday reported there was one exception—the Hampton Roads region. There cases are climbing amid reports of non-compliance with the requirement to wear face coverings in indoor public spaces and physical distancing recommendations. The average number of new daily cases has increased from 60 to 346, he said.

As a result, the commonwealth is de-

ploying more health inspectors to that region and is urging businesses to help promote compliance. Northam said another measure could be restricting how late in the day restaurants can serve alcohol.

“Overall, I think Virginia has really done a great job,” Northam said during his first coronavirus press conference since Phase Three began. Asked whether Virginia, like many other southern states would have to re-impose business and crowd restrictions, the said that shouldn’t be necessary if folks follow the recommendations.

“We can’t go back and we don’t have to,” he said. “There is nothing to slow this down other than us.”

In Northern Virginia, where more than two-thirds of the state’s COVID-19 cases have been recorded, the case metrics continue on a positive trend.

Northam said his administration also is keeping a close eye on case levels in DC and Maryland, which could impact nearby Virginia localities. n

PURCELLVILLE Town Closes Nature Park Trail for Duration of Wells Project TMG Construction Corp. on Monday began work on the Connection of Nature Park Wells project, which has closed the Nature Park Trail through September.

The project will connect two existing test wells to the Nature Park Water Treatment Plant to increase the town’s drinking water supply. The wells are located on the town’s Nature Park property—between Hatcher Avenue and North 21st Street along South Fork Catoctin Creek—which is why the trail must be closed. According to a town statement, construction is expected to last through September.

For more information, call the town at 540-338-7421.

Loudoun Arts Film Festival Kicks Off Sept. 10

BY JAN MERCKER

jmercker@loudounnow.com

Launching a first-year film festival in the suburbs in the middle of a pandemic is gutsy, crazy or a little of both. And it’s happening right here in Loudoun this fall.

The Loudoun Arts Film Festival makes its debut in September. And while the format isn’t what organizers initially had in mind, the content has surpassed expectations.

“If you had told me beforehand the programming that we’d have, I wouldn’t have believed it. It’s amazing,” said organizer Kaeley Boyle. “It’s got the feel of a local film festival with the credibility of an international one.”

The festival will include a robust virtual component along with drive-in screenings at 50 West Vineyards near Aldie.

Organizers also are planning satellite arts programming at 50 West’s sister winery, Sunset Hills Vineyard near Purcellville.

Live screenings run Sept. 10-13 and Sept.

18-20, with online screenings starting in early September. Organizers are finalizing the program, which will be released in early August.

Boyle, an artist and downtown Leesburg gallery owner, cooked up plans for the fest last year with Loudoun-based filmmaker and novelist Owen Palmiotti.

The co-founders had launched an ongoing discussion on how to bring together and spotlight Loudoun’s growing arts community and by January of this year announced plans for the film festival.

“It’s really very much based around building community and using the arts as a vehicle or a language to talk to people and bridge those gaps,” Boyle said. “Recognizing the creative people that are here and creating one event that’s like a beacon to call them out of the woodwork.”

With support from the Loudoun Arts Council and local businesses, Boyle and Palmiotti initially confirmed plans for a three-day festival in downtown Leesburg with screenings at the Tally Ho Theater.

Boyle and Palmiotti brought in Florida-based actor, director and producer Wendy Keeling as LAFF’s creative director and award-winning indie actor Dallas White as social media director to round out the team. Keeling is a film festival veteran brought in to help steer programming and use her industry connections to get the word out on the festival cir-

cuit. Keeling went to the iconic Sundance Film Festival in January to promote the Loudoun festival. By February, connections were being made, and promising submissions started to flow in.

Then COVID hit. There was talk of starting over next year, but Boyle says the scrappy team of creatives wouldn’t let go of a 2020 festival.

“We had some serious conversations,” Boyle said. “We had already developed a list of programming that was crazy to be able to do as a first-year festival. ... It seemed like we were too far down the road and everyone was too gritty to say no.”

There were some moments of serious scrambling as the team searched for venues and made tough decisions about what the festival would look like. But their confidence in the content and a drive to promote local and international filmmakers kept them motivated.

“I was describing it as standing on tectonic plates with lava coming up,” Boyle said with a laugh. “And now we’re on stable ground. We have partners that understand the different aspects, and they’re thirsty to do something, too.”

Like film festivals around the world, LAFF is taking a big chunk of its programming online. And while the feel is different from a traditional in-person festival, streaming presents new opportunities for

access—both for viewers and filmmakers, Boyle said.

“With all the craziness, there have been really great silver linings,” she said. “We have access to people that we wouldn’t have been able to speak to previously being a first-year festival.”

Boyle is also thrilled with the idea of drive-in starlit screenings at the picturesque 50 West with the Blue Ridge mountains in the backdrop, combining topnotch independent films with Loudoun’s rural charm.

“It’s kind of the best of both worlds,” she said.

Organizers are planning a series of theme nights including horror, science fiction and a Virginia’s First night. While programming is under wraps for now, Boyle has confirmed that the festival will include an Oscar-winning short film, stellar documentaries and an impressive piece by a 12-year-old Loudoun filmmaker. Organizers are also planning virtual Q&A sessions with filmmakers around the world. For Loudouners and film lovers around the DMV, it’s a chance to learn more about the industry.

“It’s an event that allows people access to a world that they might not have thought was open to them,” Boyle said.

Film fest continued from page 18 And while LAFF is a grassroots regional effort with a very different feel from the prestigious Middleburg Film Festival, Boyle gives Middleburg credit for putting Loudoun on the film fest map. That festival, launched by entrepreneur Sheila Johnson in 2013, is known for attracting big films and plenty of star power.

“I think with Middleburg laying the groundwork made it possible for us to walk through the door,” Boyle said.

Middleburg Film Festival organizers are currently planning a “social-distanced, in-person festival with a virtual online component” for Oct. 15-18 of this year, said the festival’s public relations director Dana Bseiso Vazquez. Programming is slated to be announced in late August or early September.

“Everyone’s safety and well-being comes first and we will continue to monitor the situation regarding COVID-19,” Bseiso Vazquez said.

For Boyle, whose initial mission in launching the festival was all about community building, LAFF is truly building community but not necessarily in the ways she initially imagined. Instead of a Leesburg-centric in-person event, the festival

is branching out in unexpected ways. The festival is co-sponsored by the Loudoun Arts Council and the Leesburg-based online arts publication Artistic Fuel. Finding partners in Sunset Hills and 50 West was a pivotal development for the festival’s new format, Boyle says, and organizers are looking for additional sponsorships from local businesses.

The logistical challenges have been tough, Boyle says, but in the end, LAFF will deliver the kind of creatively delivered arts programming that communities need more than ever.

“We still need to be around each other from a distance, to be able to have something to look forward to that gives us a sense of normalcy in some tiny regard.” n

“Part of PEC’s mission is to get people involved in their community and having a role in making it a better place,” Bingol said. She first had the idea early in her work with the PEC, where she started in 1998.

“I work with all kinds of groups, and within working with HOAs, it was clear to me—it’s been clear for a long time— that HOAs need to be more involved as a stakeholder group,” Bingol said.

She already had connections to some HOAs through her work helping them figure out sustainable landscaping. She said getting involved in the nitty-gritty of local government, such as zoning ordinances, is important for homeowners.

“Their property is the visual result and physical result of zoning laws and the Facilities Standards Manual, and my goal has always been, in working for PEC, to help people understand their community, their involvement, and how

it affects them,” Bingol said. And, she said, “we are now living the results of that lack of understanding.”

“I used to think, ‘oh, I vote at the national level and the environment is taken care of, they take care of the environment,’” Bingol said. “And the reality is, in my world, in my personal world, the decisions about the environment that surrounds me are made right here, every day.

And I figure if I didn’t realize that, there are probably a lot of other people who didn’t.”

Today, the coalition includes HOAs of every size and from every local elec-

tion district. Durham first announced the new coalition to supervisors near the beginning of their term, but said “obviously COVID threw everything for a loop.” But that didn’t interrupt the coalition’s other purpose—sharing knowledge and experience.

“We want to provide a place for HOAs to collaborate for their mutual benefit, information sharing, best practices, war stories about companies that we work with, whatever,” Durham said. Right now, he said, the hot topic is reopening pools amid the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, with different HOAs sharing what they’ve

been doing, how they’re making their decisions, and what extra costs they’re running into.

“We’re only asking that our input be taken seriously,” Lau said. “That’s the problem: we had no vehicle for offering organized input in the past, and we got run roughshod over by developers and the special interests.”

The Loudoun Coalition of Homeowners and Condominium Associations will hold its next virtual meeting Monday, July 20 at 6 p.m. For more information or to get involved, contact Matt Durham at cascadesdurham@gmail.com. n

average requires only 575,000 gallons of treatment each day.

The town last year also considered a deal with Hamilton in which the towns would have connected potable water lines between them to sell treated water to one another.

Hamilton ultimately decided against both ventures. There have been no public discussions with Hillsboro in recent months.

Virginia Municipal League Executive Director Michelle Gowdy said there are “a few” Virginia towns that have already sold

their utility systems or are actively considering doing so, in part because of a new state law that took effect July 1.

That law will allow for acquiring public utilities to pay a fair market value when purchasing water and sewer systems, while still being required to demonstrate adequate service to the public at just and reasonable rates. The State Corporation Commission, which regulates the privatization of public utilities, is required to adopt procedures governing those fair market valuations. That work must be complete by Jan. 1. n

1.

2.

Zoning Ordinance Amendment, Case Number TLOA-2020-0002 is an amendment to the text of the Zoning Ordinance to establish in Article 7 Overlay and Special Purpose Districts a new section 7.12 Gateway District (Overlay) to implement the Town Plan goal of ensuring quality design compatible with Leesburg’s historic, architectural and tourist resources through architectural and site design review along the Town’s arterial routes to the historic downtown.

The intent is to achieve superior design and appearance of structures constructed and altered along the Town’s arterial roadways to promote the economic health and the general public welfare of the citizens of the Town. This ordinance will address site and building design issues including, but not limited to: structure design, materials, parking lot screening, and architectural treatment. The district is intended to replace the current H-2, Historic Corridor Architectural Control Overlay District.

Official Zoning Map Amendment, Case Number TLZM-2020-0004 is an amendment to the Official Zoning Map to (1) establish the Gateway District (Overlay), on 140 parcels along Edwards Ferry Road that are not currently subject to any architectural and design control overlay district; (2) Rezone 202 parcels from the H-2, Historic Corridor Architectural Control Overlay District (“H-2 District”) to the new Gateway District (Overlay), and (3) Remove 414 parcels from the H-2 District without placing them in the new Gateway District (Overlay) so that they are no longer subject to any Town zoning architectural and design control overlay district.

The proposed Gateway District (Overlay) is proposed to include properties along five major corridors leading to the historic downtown, including portions of East Market Street, West Market Street, North King Street, South King Street and Edwards Ferry Road. The properties subject to these amendments are depicted on the attached map and further described below by address (if any), Loudoun County Property Identification Number, and Loudoun County Tax Map Parcel Number (if any). The properties that would be subject to the Gateway District (Overlay) are listed first. The properties that will be removed from the H-2 District and not placed in the Gateway District (Overlay) are listed second under a separate heading.

TOWN OF LEESBURG NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING

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 valve exercise program 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 each 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. It may be necessary to repeat this process after 30 minutes. In addition, the closing and opening of valves may introduce air into water lines which can cause temporary erratic water flow. If this occurs, open your cold water tap until a clear steady flow of water is observed.

The valve exercising will occur April through November during the hours of 7 a.m. – 3 p.m., 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.

Opinion Missed a Step The announcement last week that Loudoun supervisors plan to seek a November referendum to win authority to create a county police department has given rise to charges of power grabbing—either by the county chair or be Democrats generally. Rightly so.

Consideration of a county police department continues to have merit. As does a review of broader options to change the form of government to operate at peak efficiently in a county that seen its population growth soar past the 400,000-resident mark. There were fewer than 40,000 residents when Phil Bolen was hired as the first county administrator and Sheriff Bob Legard kept the peace with a handful of deputies. Things have changed more than a little bit But those considerations must start with a discussion, not a countywide referendum.

With the stated goal of making no changes until the end of the current sheriff term in 2024, there’s no need to rush the issue to a ballot in the next three months.

Unfortunately, the referendum rollout has served only to entrench partisan battle lines. This should not be a Democrat or Republican issue; it is a community issue.

The question is: Would Loudoun’s residents and businesses be better served by putting law enforcement into the hands of a police department headed by an appointed chief? Supervisors haven’t answered that yet. And voters don’t have the information they would need to make an informed decision.

Rather than advance this issue to the ballot, the county would be better served if supervisors put question into the hands of a community study commission that would be given the space to work outside the realm of political bickering and the authority to investigate best practices from around the commonwealth and across the nation. A similar “blue ribbon” panel lead the effort to add a county chairman elected at-large to the board dais. And a government reform commission was the last to seriously study the merits of establishing a county police force, a decades ago. After that work, supervisors—and voters—could be confident they have the information needed to make the best decisions for the community. There’s no reason to skip that step. n

LETTERS to the Editor Just Don’t Use It Editor: When I first heard about the Dulles Greenway rate increase request, I thought to myself, “I wish I owned this company.” When this Greenway road was first proposed back in the 1990, our elected state and local officials we all in support of this project saying, “This would be a good example of public/private venture.”

Now our residents of Northern Virginia and those to our north in Maryland and west in West Virginia have become so dependent on it because our other roads suck, like Rt. 7 West and Rt. 15 North and Rt. 9 West. And where the heck is our Rt. 28 crossing over the Potomac River into Maryland?

If this road was so needed back then, our lovely state of Virginia should have put it in, but, if they did, they most likely

would still be building it. Since this was built for profit it was completed in no time.

I am not saying I am for the rate increase, but I am not against it. This is a business and if I had a business, which I do, my main objective is to make money—as much as I can. Now the riders (consumers) of the Greenway did not want to pay the price, I say to them, “Do not use it.” If enough people stop using it, this would send a signal to the owners. The consumer is the most powerful person in the world.

The riders need to treat this expenditure like any other one where they feel they are not getting a value for the price. You certainly would not pay $25 for a burger at McDonald’s would you?

PARENTING WITH A PURPOSE

Leading our Kids About School in the Fall

BY NEIL MCNERNEY

Loudoun parents are facing significant difficulties in trying to do what is best for our kids. By now, if you have a school-aged child, you have decided whether they will be doing distance learning or the “hybrid” model of two days in person and three days online learning. For most of us, this wasn’t an easy decision. In fact, I would suggest that this could have been the hardest decision up to this point in our childrearing days. Many of us have been questioned and challenged on our decision by a myriad of people, including family members, neighbors, and friends.

Now comes the more difficult part: How will we continue to provide leadership for our kids about how school will look for them? In this column, I will try to lay out some talking points based on both choices we have been given.

Distance Learning If you have chosen complete distance learning for your child, you might face resistance from them. They might complain that they will miss their friends, that they will have trouble learning, that it’s not fair that

they must stay home. They might promise to be careful and wear a mask all the time.

They might accuse you of fear-mongering.

My initial suggestion, when confronted with this type of push-back, is to spend a good deal of time being empathic. It is important that your child knows that you understand their point of view and that their point of view is valid. Take a significant amount of time letting your child know that you understand. For instance, if your child says that they will miss out by being at home, don’t immediately respond with a rebuttal such as reminding them that many of their friends won’t be there either, or you’ll have to stay separated from them anyway.

Especially don’t reply with some comment about them being selfish. Don’t imply that they are being self-centered by focusing on their friendships instead of the safety of their family. This is not the time to use guilt to prove your point.

Instead try something like this: “I know it’s going to be hard for you and you will miss your friends and feel like you are missing out. Can you tell me more about this?”

The “Can you tell me more about this?” is an important question. Even though it sounds hokey, your goal is to keep them

talking, so you can keep listening. After you think that they have fully shared their feelings, you can then respond. For instance: “I think I understand how hard this will be for you, and I am so sorry that this is happening. I don’t know how I would have dealt with this when I was your age. You’re going to really miss your friends and you’re afraid that you will miss out on a lot going on. But as your parent, I have made the decision to not have you at school until I think it is safe to do so. I know you disagree, and I know this will be hard for you. I will let you know right away once I think that it is safe enough for you to go back.”

This type of response allows your child to know that you are empathizing with their plight, but you are still the authority figure who makes this decision.

that you listen carefully to children who are worried about going back in person.

If a child is extremely anxious about going back, it will significantly impact their learning if they are constantly in fear about keeping their mask on, or maintaining six feet, or washing their hands constantly. For anxious children, this is not the time for them to be facing their anxiety with such a big problem. Although I am a huge proponent of using exposure therapy (incrementally exposing a client to the anxiety provoking object), this is not the right time to implement it.

In summary, be compassionate about your child’s feelings, especially during this decision. Your relationship with your child will benefit. n

Although I might be wrong, I don’t think there will be as much conflict between parent and child about the hybrid choice. My experience so far has been that most children and parents tend to be on the same page when the hybrid model was chosen. However, as someone who works with many anxious children, I would suggest

bers of the family.

Emotional boundaries. Many of our kids get cranky about not seeing their friends, not going to camp and not having things be “normal” in their lives. As parents, we can empathize with how our children feel but it is important that we not take on their feelings. If we do not set an emotional boundary for ourselves, we could end up letting their moods negatively influence our own.

In our house, for example, if someone is growling about not being allowed to see friends or eat out at a restaurant, I say, “Yes, it’s frustrating. I agree. But I choose to look on the bright side and focus on the fact that we are all healthy and safe.” By being empathetic but not letting their mood hijack my mood, I am setting and modeling a healthy emotional boundary.

Physical boundaries. We are all getting used to new physical boundaries outside of the house including staying 6 feet apart from others and wearing face masks. It may be just as important to set physical boundaries inside the house where work, play, school, sleep and relaxing are often taking place within the same few walls.

When I am on the phone with my door closed, for example, I have explained to the

kids that it means I am not available. This boundary works both ways. If one of my children is on a Zoom call with friends, I should not barge in and complain about the dirty clothes all over the floor.

There are other types of boundaries that might help improve family dynamics such as setting digital boundaries (what gets shared on social media), sleep/wake boundaries (what time kids and parents are expected to go to bed/get up) and even parental independence boundaries (so parents can have lives separate from their children).

Hopefully by setting clear boundaries in the home, you can ride out this challenging time with your family in peace. As a side benefit, your children will learn how to respect and set healthy boundaries. n Chris Croll is a writer, community activist and former member of the Loudoun County School Board (Catoctin District).

Poiice referendum continued from page 1 been split more or less evenly between opposing and supporting the idea of a police department, but the majority of all of them had one thing in common.

“Almost all of them said we want to see more figures and numbers,” Randall said Tuesday. “…At some point when your constituents who agree with it and your constituents who don’t agree with it all say ‘we want to see numbers,’ you listen to that.”

Randall has long talked about starting a police department in Loudoun, arguing it would allow for increased oversight and transparency of law enforcement, and pointing out that Loudoun is the largest county in Virginia by far without a police department. Chapman has opposed the idea, along with other ideas aimed at oversight, such as a civilian review board or publishing the Sheriff ’s Office’s General Orders, the normal practice of other law enforcement agencies in the county and region.

But the idea of a Loudoun County Police Department predates Randall’s term on the board; in 2008, then County Chairman Scott York, a Republican, proposed a study of the idea. That effort failed to gain traction.

Randall said good things have happened under Chapman’s leadership, “but he’s not going to be sheriff all the time, and we take a risk—there’s always a risk that somebody could be elected who maybe shouldn’t be in that position.”

Randall stressed she was not seeking to abolish or defund law enforcement in Loudoun.

Chapman Hits Back The day after news broke of Randall’s proposal, Chapman took to the Sheriff ’s Office’s official channels to argue the Board of Supervisors “seeks to take over and politicize local law enforcement.”

Using the same channels the department uses to communicate public safety messages, and offering as contact information the Sheriff ’s Office’s public information officer, Chapman urged Loudouners to call their county supervisors to speak about the proposal, and to sign up for a public input session on July 21, when supervisors are expected to discuss the proposal.

“The Loudoun County Sheriff ’s Office is working for the citizens of our county and will continue to do its part to keep politics out of public safety,” a press release and Facebook post from the Sheriff ’s Office reads.

Chapman followed up Tuesday with the release of a 99-page report prepared by the

ALWAYS ONLINE AT LOUDOUNNOW.COM

Sheriff ’s Office staff that argues against the idea.

“Proponents of this change have said they want to take politics out of law enforcement, but in fact, they want to do just the opposite,” Chapman stated in the release. “This is a reckless power grab intended to inject partisan politics into public safety and forever change the direct accountability of the Sheriff ’s Office to the people of Loudoun County.”

Chapman argued changing to a police department would be costly and not improve current service levels.

“The Sheriff ’s Office facilitates transparency, dialog, trust, outreach, and education directly between citizens and our deputies,” Chapman stated. “There is no middleman, there are no politicians pulling the strings and injecting their personal views. This is the reason Loudoun has attained and maintained such a low crime rate and high citizen satisfaction.”

Supervisors Weigh In County supervisors quickly began to stake their ground in the debate, with all three of the board’s Republicans having already expressed some measure of opposition to a referendum, citing the unknown costs of the change and criticizing what they say is a rushed process.

“We haven’t seen nearly enough information about the costs, how it will be implemented, and what effects and consequences it may have,” wrote Supervisor Caleb A. Kershner (R-Catoctin) on Facebook.

He also echoed Chapman’s argument that a police department is less accountable to voters, arguing a police department “takes law enforcement out of the hands of an elected Sheriff and puts it into the hands of an unelected police department, which would not answer directly to the voters of Loudoun County the way that our Sheriff does.”

Supervisor Tony R. Buffington (R-Blue Ridge) wrote if the county were to consider starting a police department, “THIS IS NOT THE WAY TO DO SO.” “If we’re going to consider doing this, it should be done through an extremely thorough process that provides residents and elected officials with the necessary information to make a truly informed decision when eventually asked to do so. NOT hastily by a decision two Tuesday’s from now by 9 uninformed elected individuals who think its a good idea to force residents to make such an important decision merely 4 months from now without first arming them with the necessary information to make a well informed decision.”

And Supervisor Matthew F. Letourneau (R-Dulles) posted a lengthy breakdown of the issues at hand, concluding he would

likely not support the motion for a voter referendum in its current form. He wrote he was not convinced a comprehensive analysis of such a complex topic can be done in time for the November election, writing “I think it is backwards for the Board of Supervisors to ask citizens to vote first, and get the facts later.”

He also wrote that the county should perhaps cast its net wider—examining the merits not only of a police department, but a potential change in its form of government. Loudoun’s traditional county supervisor model is not the only one available to Virginia counties; in the past, some supervisors have discussed internally whether they should look into other forms of government. Some large and rapidly growing counties in Virginia have switched to other forms of government which may change how the local government functions and which officers are elected.

However, some supervisors have already expressed support for a police department, including Supervisor Michael R. Turner (D-Ashburn), who argued a chief of police hired by the county administrator would need to be qualified to manage law enforcement and a multi-million-dollar budget, as opposed to only meeting Virginia’s minimum requirements to run for public office.

He wrote Loudoun should join other large counties in the region and state.

“After almost two decades of unprecedented growth and the transformation of Loudoun County from a largely homogeneous rural community into a highly diverse, modern county, now is the time to transition towards a more efficient and accountable community policing model adopted long ago by all the counties within the U.S. National Capitol Region,” Turner wrote.

Vice Chairman Koran T. Saines (D-Sterling) has also said he supports the idea, comparing a chief of police to the fire-rescue chief, who is also hired by the County Administrator, the county’s senior-most staff member and one of only two positions hired directly by the Board of Supervisors.

“No single politician would have the power to make any change,” Saines wrote.

“The notion that this change would result in a ‘power grab’ is belied by the diffused nature of the Board’s 9-member structure and the historical record with the fire department. The fire department has not been politicized and neither would a police department.”

Electing the chief law enforcement officer, he argued, is more political.

Proponents of the plan have been hesitant to attack Chapman’s record amid Loudoun’s low crime rates. Loudoun has one of the lowest crime rates in the Washington, DC region. However, they have warned future sheriffs may not be as quali-

fied for the office.

And Randall pointed out that deputies may be fired without warning or recourse at the beginning of each new term.

“If a deputy’s employment is not renewed, that individual has no human resources or county grievance recourse,” Randall wrote in a follow-up Monday. “In short, they are out of a job with very little or no notice, and no ability for their case to be reviewed.”

Much of Chapman’s previous term was spent defending his legal ability to do just that; the department’s attorneys successfully defended a wrongful termination case, pointing to court precedent that allows the sheriff to fire any deputy for political reasons, after a former detective was fired after supporting a different candidate in the Republican primary. That case ended when the U.S. Supreme Court declined to hear an appeal.

The Police Benevolent Association also argued a wave of reassignments after Chapman’s last election amounted to political retaliation. Those included reassigning the president and senior vice president of the PBA’s Loudoun chapter, which declined to endorse Chapman. They were reassigned from investigating thefts, robberies and homicides to night patrol and jail duty.

A New Chief of Police?

Even with a police department, the county would likely still have a sheriff. As a constitutional office, the state mandates the county elect a sheriff, and the office could only be dispensed with if supervisors and voters decide to change the county’s form of government. In other counties with both, the police department handles law enforcement, while the sheriff ’s office is responsible for the courts, the jail and civil process.

If Loudoun decides to hand primary law enforcement duties to a police department, it will be the first Virginia county to do so since 1995. That was the year Prince George County officially separated the police department from the Sheriff ’s Office.

There are currently only nine county police departments in Virginia, and Loudoun is by far the largest county by population without one. The next-largest county after Loudoun with a sheriff ’s office in charge of law enforcement is Stafford County, with a population of around 150,000 according to the U.S. Census Bureau. Loudoun’s rapidly growing population is more than twice that, estimated around 413,000 as of 2019.

Loudoun also has the largest sheriff ’s office in the commonwealth. n

Distance learning continued from page 1 and employees in an online environment.”

The LEA also is pressing for educators to have more involvement in the planning for COVID-era education.

“The current most critical need is to ensure educators, students, and our community are safe. As educators, we are charged with the academic growth, physical safety, and emotional well-being of our students,” according to the statement. “… LEA expects educators to be an integral part of the planning process. It is important to include our perspectives, as we are on the front lines working with students on a daily basis. LEA members demand that they be involved in the development of future LCPS plans.”

On Monday afternoon, LEA members reinforced that position with a large, horn-honking car rally at the School Administration Building in Ashburn that nearly filled the parking lot.

Teachers participated in a July 8 virtual town hall meeting with administrators.

Among the new concerns that surfaced during that session was that the plans did not envision that classroom surfaces would be cleaned during the day, including between classes for middle and high school students or before and after in-classroom lunch service. Administrators said the policy stemmed from a worry that cleaning products teachers might use could react with the cleaners used by the janitorial staff to pose allergy concerns.

“Would you eat in a restaurant that didn’t clean their tables in between customers? The answer, for most, would probably be no,” one teacher wrote after the session.

Administrators later adjusted the plan to allow teachers who become certified,

through video training, to use the approved cleaning chemicals to conduct mid-day classroom cleaning.

Another teacher concern expressed during that session and during a Sunday afternoon virtual town hall conducted by Sen. Jennifer Boysko (D-33) was what happens when teachers are required—perhaps repeatedly—to quarantine themselves if they test positive for the virus or come into contact with an infected student, colleague or community member. There have been no announced plans to offer expanded sick leave or other income protections. While raises and step increases have been suspended because of the coronavirus’ impact on state and local budgets, some teachers have suggested hazard pay should be offered to staff members who head back into the schools.

Teachers also want assurances they’ll have enough appropriate personal protective equipment—beyond the five masks administrators plan to supply each employee—and access to frequent, and preferably free, COVID-19 testing, along with a strong contact tracing system.

For many educators, procedures to ensure the safety of the school community, as well as their own families, relies on a level of trust they haven’t yet reached.

“It scares the heck out of us because we love our kids,” said LEA President David Palanzi. “We need to have trust in the community. We need to have trust in community leaders.”

Parents and teachers had until Wednesday morning to make their declaration on whether they would return to class or opt for 100 percent distance learning. The School Board is expected to get an update on the back-to-school efforts during a special meeting next Tuesday. n
