Northampton
Supervisors Zero In
on Budget
By Ron West
The Northampton County Board of Supervisors met Monday in an effort to close in on a final figure for the FY2017
county budget and tax rate.
With the latest reassessment, which in some cases has indicated as much as a 20 percent drop in property values, the
tax rate will need to be adjusted to insure that the county has
sufficient resources to meet its fiscal responsibilities. Based
on the revenue projections, the new tax rate would need to be
set at 82.53 cents per $100 of property value, if there were no
additional funding requests by county agencies.
During the budget work session, the supervisors reviewed
a number of funding requests. If all were approved, the tax
rate would increase by several additional cents. The consensus of the board was to attempt to keep the tax increase as
low as possible, yet fund essential services.
A request to fund additional Emergency Medical Services
(EMS) providers was gradually trimmed from 12 to four by
the board, with an eye on adding another four, if there is a
proven need by the end of the year.
A decision on the School Board’s request for an additional
$391,000 was put on hold while the supervisors continue to
review other funding requests.
While no final decision was made on the tax rate to be advertised, the board noted a desire to hold the tax rate to less
than 2 cents above the adjustment required by the reassessment. That would put the new rate at about 84 cents per $100
of valuation.
The board has asked that once the rate is set, examples of the
amount of taxes for given properties be published by the media.
In the only other business of the evening, Virginia Department of Transportation Residency Administrator Chris Isdell
reported that the top priority of the county’s Six-Year Secondary Road Plan is construction of a new road connection for
Route 642 in Cape Charles at a projected cost of $11,475,000.
Isdell said the project will go out for bid by early summer,
and barring any unforeseen delays, should be completed by
the end of 2018.

Range of General Assembly Actions Will Affect Shore
By Ron West
The annual Eggs and Issues event,
sponsored by Eastern Shore Chamber of Commerce April 22 at Eastern
Shore Yacht and Country Club, offered
updates from state and county leaders
on General Assembly bills, as well as
local issues on the Eastern Shore.
State Sen. Lynwood Lewis stated
that once again, the state budget dominated the recent General Assembly
session in Richmond. As in the past,
funding for transportation projects
and education reform occupied much
of the session.
Noteworthy among the education
bills passed were efforts to provide
more physical activity time for children as well as working to eliminate
and refine some of the Standards of
Learning.
Lewis noted the importance of Wallops, the spaceport, and the Navy to
the Eastern Shore. The possibility of
additional unmanned aerial vehicles
(drones) at the Wallops facility offers
an opportunity to bring additional jobs
to the area, he said.
Del. Rob Bloxom spoke of the possibility of expanding the Port of Cape
Charles as an extension of Hampton
Roads as a way to grow the economy
of Northampton County. Having an
inland port would allow goods to be
shipped via rail or truck without having to face the snarled transportation
system found in Hampton Roads.
Bloxom said the development of
programs at Eastern Shore Community College, such as the truck driver’s
course to help individuals earn a commercial driver’s license, has the poten-

Accomack County Board of Supervisors Chairman Ron Wolff noted numerous economic advancements that
are benefiting the county. High on the
list are developments at Wallops and
the establishment of a new solar facility in the northern end of the county.
Wolff noted that the poultry industry, while controversial to some, is an
economic driver in Accomack County,
employing thousands in the processing plants and poultry houses, and creating jobs for technology workers, fuel
sales, transportation services, and numerous other secondary jobs.
Wolff mentioned that the possibility
that the federal government will limit access to Assateague Beach poses a
problem for Chincoteague. A related is-

Local Coast Guard Leaders Honored
Story and photos by Ron West
Last week, Chief Bos’n Mate Nicholas Crews, officer-in-charge of Coast
Guard Station Wachapreague, and Senior Chief Bos’n Mate Charles Gordon,
the former leaser of Station Wachapreague and now officer-in-charge of
Station Little Creek were among more
than 20 members of the Coast Guard
recently had the mantle of leadership
placed promoted and honored at a ceremony conducted in Portsmouth, Va.
Known as the Chief’s Call to Indoctrination (CCTI), the ceremony serves
as a formal introduction to the command and informs that command that
a new senior enlisted leader is present
and ready to accept the additional responsibilities of leader and mentor.
It also provides the new chief petty
officer with a better understanding of
the importance of camaraderie among
chief petty officers to help further personal, unit, and organizational goals.
The CCTI program ensures that
the history, heritage, and traditions of
the Coast Guard will remain integral
parts of it.
In the weeks and months prior to
Chief Charles Gordon with his projects
the ceremony, each chief was tasked
with completing two projects, which
would be displayed at the CCTI event.
The first, know as a “Charge Book,”
is a decorative binder used to collect
pieces of memorabilia relating to the
CCTI. It contains instructive and encouraging charges and comments.
The second project was to construct
a “Chief’s Cover Box” to display their
dress uniform cover (cap).
Each newly minted chief, regardless
of background in woodworking, must
construct each of the projects, which
should be easily identifiable with the
chief’s specialty and background.
The winning cover box was judged
to be the one built by Gordon.
The ceremony culminated with each
new chief being pinned with the collar
devices representing his or her rank.
All chief petty officers in the audience
removed one of their own collar devices and placed it in a cover. Each newly
promoted chief then selected one of the
devices, which was placed on his own

Court Postings
By Linda Cicoira
Accomack Circuit Court
Forty-three-year-old Oak Hall resident Deandre Brown, who is deaf, and
four sign-language interpreters proved
in Accomack Circuit Court Friday that
Brown is competent to serve as a witness in the first-degree murder trial of
Marcus Mitchell Davis, 28, of Atlantic.
Brown was asked dozens of questions and showed he is capable of testifying at the May trial. The questions
dealt with his ability to understand
and communicate, not with last year’s
death of Jacques DuVual Fauntleroy,
35, of Atlantic.
Davis also is charged with use of a
firearm in the death.
Fauntleroy died from gunshot
wounds to the torso, according to the
medical examiner’s office.
“He has capacity,” Judge W. Revell
Lewis said in ruling that Brown will
be allowed to testify. “The court denies
the motion,” made by defense lawyer
James Broccoletti of Norfolk that Hall
is incompetent.
Lewis granted Broccoletti’s motion to
allow a video camera to record Brown’s
testimony and its interpretation.
Davis has been held without bond in
Accomack Jail since he was arrested,
shortly after the shooting.

Public Asked For Suggestions
on Former Middle School
By Ron West
Northampton County Economic Development Director Kris Tucker told
Cape Charles Town Council last Thursday that county leaders are seeking
the town’s input on the future use of
the former middle-school building in
Machipongo.
At previous county sessions, a number of suggestions have been offered,
but the county has yet to make a decision. Mayor George Proto and council agreed to take it under advisement,
but made no public recommendations.
Proto and Harbormaster Charlie
Farlow reported that an estimated
100 people attended the ninth annual blessing of the fleet April 15. Proto thanked those who assisted and
noted his appreciation for the color
guard from Coast Guard Station Cape
Charles, as well as the Coast Guard
Auxiliary vessel that towed the ceremonial wreath out to sea.
Farlow reported that a grant request for a fourth offshore breakwater has been submitted to the Virginia
Port Authority. If the town is awarded the grant, the fourth breakwater
would add protection to the inner harbor from wind-driven waves from the
southwest and west. Each breakwater
costs approximately $800,000.
Cape Charles has received the title
to a 29-foot sailboat and plans to auction it to raise money for the town.
In a related area, the harbormaster
provided council with a list of names
of those who are delinquent in pay-
ing their fees at the harbor. Farlow explained that many harbors, especially those that serve commercial vessels, often allow their regular clients
to charge items such as fuel for up to
one month. Many of the individuals
who owe sizable amounts date back
several years and in some cases, the
individuals are no long living in the
immediate area. The town is in the
process of seeking warrants and judgments against the vessel owners. According to the information provided,
the total owed to the town is in excess
of $70,000.
Two fireworks displays are being
planned for July. One, the traditional Fourth of July event, will occur on
July 4th. The second, still in the planning stages, is being considered for
an area near Kiptopeke, and if things
go as planned, would occur July 2. It
would be sponsored not by the town,
but rather by a private entity.
Council supported requests to construct or modify structures adjacent
to the harbor. The first, submitted by
Southport Investors, is to construct a
small bathhouse and dockmaster station on the south side of the harbor.
The second request, also by Southport Investors, is to modify a structure known as the Harvey Building to
serve as a small retail establishment.
The Harvey Building was located in
Oyster, but has been moved to Cape
Charles. Both requests were approved
on a 5-0 vote, with Councilman Tom
Godwin absent from the session.

Craddockville Carver’s
Mother Passes Away
Mrs. Margaret
A. McNair, 91,
of
Nassawadox,
formerly of Guilford and Madison,
Conn., died peacefully in the early
hours of Monday,
April 25, 2016.
Born
Margaret Alice McKeon in New Hav- Mrs. McNair
en, Conn., she was
the daughter of the late John J. and
Grace (Gildea) McKeon and sister of
Mary Grace (McKeon) Malarkey. A
lifelong resident of Connecticut, she
was a graduate of St. Francis School
of Nursing in Hartford. Mrs. McNair
relocated to the Eastern Shore of Virginia in 2010.
A wordsmith extraordinaire, always
at the ready with a new joke, tinkling
the ivories at every opportunity, that
was Mrs. McNair. She encouraged all
three of her children to pursue their
artistic talents as well, making sure
art, theater, and piano classes were
taken throughout their childhoods.
If you asked Mrs. McNair what the
most important things in life were to
her, there’s no doubt that her family
and her abiding faith in God would top
the list.
Her eldest child, Mark, and his
wife, Martha, of Craddockville gifted her with three grandchildren and
filled the last five years of her life
here on the Eastern Shore with love
and community, a true home. Daughter Betsy McNair of Santa Cruz, Calif., brought her great joy — and plenty of delicious food — despite the distance. Her youngest, Paul, grew into
one of her closest confidants and best
friends, evidenced by the hours and
hours of phone calls chatting about
everything and nothing. He and his
wife, Emma, and son, Gavin, of Philadelphia, Pa., spent every holiday possible with “Nanny.”
Mrs. McNair also leaves three
grandchildren and their spouses, Delana and Justin Tomkins of Poole, England, Ian and Becca McNair of Charlottesville, Va., and Colin and Kate McNair of Cambridge, Mass. Her fourth
grandchild, Gavin McNair, lives in
Philadelphia.
Great-grandchildren
Currituck and Olivia live in England
visited often. Her sister Mary’s four
children, John Malarkey, Beth Maroney, Bob Malarkey, and David Malarkey,
were loved by her beyond measure, as
was she by them.
All are welcome to celebrate Mrs.
McNair’s life at a memorial service
Sunday, May 1, at noon at Franktown
United Methodist Church.
In lieu of flowers, the family asks
that you plant something blooming,
listen to a lovely piece of music, or
say a prayer in her name. Family and
friends may sign the guest book at

Citizens Voice Opinions on Loaded Cell Phones, Pet Peeves
By Linda Cicoira
A large majority — 91 percent — of
local residents who participated in a
recent email survey conducted by the
Eastern Shore Post agreed manufacturers should not be allowed to make
firearms that look like cell phones.
“No, definitely not, there are too many guns now in unconscionable hands,”
wrote Shirley Christian of Melfa. “Every day, the news is filled with driveby shootings, robberies with guns and
gun-involved murders. Our whole society has turned into who can prove they
are more superior because they have the
bigger or better gun and can get away using it. … I’m glad I was a kid when I was.
If you got caught with gum in school, you
were in trouble, now it’s guns.”
According
to
www.snopes.com,
“these phones have not hit the U.S. but
they are in use overseas.”
The devices look like “a regular cell
phone — same size, same shape, same
overall appearance,” the website states.
“But beneath the digital face lies a
.22-caliber pistol … capable of firing four
rounds in quick succession with a touch
of the otherwise standard keypad.”
Bill Mapp of Exmore said the devices are “too likely to end up with more
innocent people being shot … of course,
now that it has been invented, it can’t
be un-invented. Get ready.”
“Just the sight of a typical gun is
enough to scare off some assailants,”
wrote Karen Simpson of Quinby. “I also want the true impact of a .357, .380,
9mm, .44 etc. Can you imagine a cell
phone gun in the hands of our children? What possible beneficial reason
could there be for a cell phone gun?”
“Guns in any shape or form are not
the problem; it’s the people who use
them,” replied Denise Bowden of Chincoteague Island. “There are all shapes
of vehicles, but that doesn’t stop a
drunk driver from killing someone.”
“How ridiculous,” said Patsy Goard
of Hallwood. “Absolutely not! Can you
imagine the annoying customer that always stands in line at Food Lion talking
on their cell phone and not responding
to the cashier … and they accidentally
pull out the wrong ‘cell phone?’ ”
Participants also were asked, “What
is the biggest thing that others do that
offends you?”
“The thing that bugs me the most
is the general lack of courtesy,” wrote
Anthony LoFaso of Onancock. “People
don’t use their turn signals, leave their
shopping carts feet away from the
racks, don’t say ‘thank you’ for opening a door for them, blast their music
in quiet residential areas, let trash fly
out of their cars or back of trucks. People are too focused on themselves and
inconsiderate of others.”

is when I see the veterans and homeless people neglected in our country,”
said Wanda Johnson of Eastville.
“The act of being pretentious offends
me,” wrote Lynn Bowen of Townsend.
“Please, pretentious people, get over
yourselves.”
Simpson had a list. “There are just
too many offenses in today’s world
for me to name only one. The top five
should certainly include lying, not
obeying rules/laws, apathy, intolerance
and greed,” she wrote
Judy Brunk of Jamesville said, “Use
of the F-word anytime, anywhere” offends her.
Goard is offended with those who
“crack jokes about people being special
ed. Special education is such a necessity for children to be given the learning
experience to grow and mature in the
way that fits their needs. Some cannot conform to the standard classroom
for various reasons. Having witnessed
firsthand how challenging it can be, it’s
not a joking matter.”
Robert Doughty of South Chesconnessex said, “When people brag about
how great the place is that they came
from, that’s offending.”
Carrie Jacobson of Wachapreague
said, “Apart from the big things like
murder, abuse, lying, cheating, etc., I’d
say that people’s self-centeredness is
most disappointing. If we all listened
to each other better, quit worrying
about our own selves for a minute, the
world would be a better place. I don’t
think I’m actually ‘offended’ by this —
or by much of anything, really — but
as I said, I’m disappointed.”
Wrote Greg L. Duncan Sr. of Accomack, “I have learned and try to inspire others to ‘know what they are
working with.’ Then getting offended
is not as big of an issue.”
Jim Chapman of Cheriton said
those who drive slowly in the left lane
offend him.
Bowden is offended by the offended. “That people are offended by everything,” offends her. “You can’t say or do
anything because people get all bent
out of shape over the dumbest things.
Grow up, get a life, go out and make a
difference,” she said.

coach make Ed an important addition
to the board.”

of Tankard Nurseries in Exmore. He
graduated from Broadwater Academy in 1981 and earned an undergraduate degree from Hampden-Sydney College and an MBA from William and Mary.
He currently serves on the Board of

“Attending Broadwater was a formative experience for me,” said Tankard. “I am committed to ensuring that Broadwater continues to
provide families on the Shore with
top-quality education for their children so they can attend great colleges and have fulfilling careers either here on the Shore or wherever
they choose to go.”

Perdue Donates Money, Food to Foodbank
The Foodbank of Southeastern Virginia and the Eastern Shore has received a $10,000 grant from the Franklin P. and Arthur W. Perdue Foundation to support the Backpack Program
serving Virginia’s Eastern Shore (the
Foodbank).
Perdue Farms also contributed
11,000 pounds of lean protein products
as part of the donation. This combined
contribution will enable the Foodbank
to distribute over 37,000 meals in
Northampton and Accomack counties.
“Perdue has supported the Foodbank
for over two decades and this latest gift
demonstrates their continued passion
and support of the goal to solve hunger in our community,” said Charmin L.
Horton, branch manager for the Foodbank. “Being able to ensure the children of the Eastern Shore have the
nutrition they need and to distribute
healthy items like lean chicken is critical because it is a great source of protein that our customers need in their
daily diet, but often have to go without.”
“The Foodbank providing backpacks full of nutritious food every other weekend to at-risk families makes
certain that no child will go hungry when they are not in school. We
are very happy to be able to continue
our support of this worthwhile effort
through funding from the foundation,”
said Kim Nechay, executive director of
the Franklin P. and Franklin P. and
Arthur W. Perdue Foundation. “At the
same time, we have also brought along
11,000 pounds of protein to help the
Foodbank provide nutritious meals
to children, seniors and families facing hunger in Northampton and Accomack counties through its various programs. In a country as rich in resources as ours, we believe no one should go
hungry.”
A nationally-replicated initiative
providing nourishing food to children
at high risk for hunger, the BackPack
Program picks up where school meal
programs leave off. Each distribution
provides a child with five nutritious
weekend/holiday meals, including
main-course items, oatmeal, fruit, vegetables and healthy snacks.

Local Players End Games with Walk-off Hits
E
arlier this month, Whitney Davis, former Nandua softball
player, slammed a two-run,
walk-off home run to cap a four-rally
and lift her Radford softball team over
Gardner-Webb in a dramatic 11-9 win
to complete a three-game sweep of the
Big South Conference series.
A senior, Davis leads Radford in
home runs (8) and RBIs (30) in 47
games, while holding down first base
after playing much of her career at
third and shortstop. A three-sport star
at Nandua, Davis is in the top 10 in
Radford softball history in slugging
percentage and home runs.
Just last Sunday, Zach Mills, who
completed his outstanding baseball career at Arcadia in 2015, rapped a walkoff single to lead University of Maryland Eastern Shore to an 11-inning,
4-3 victory over Delaware State.
Mills, a freshman gaining more and
more playing time, is covering left field
after also handling some pitching duties earlier in the season. Mills is hitting .289, second highest on the Seahawk team.
There’s nothing like a walk-off hit to
spark a celebration among teammates.
To go from being tied and facing extra
innings or behind and staring at defeat
to winning the game with one swing of
the bat empties the dugout for a raucous celebration at home.
And walk-off hits always happen
at home, so the victors also have their
supporters to join in the celebration
and leave the ballpark happy.
The term “walk-off” gets its name
from the fact that the opposing pitcher
and his teammates have to walk off the
field devastated by the sudden turn of
events.
In the annals of Major League base-
Zach Mills
Whitney Davis
ball, walk-off homers made legends of
Bobby Thomson in 1951, Bill Mazeroski in ’60, Kirk Gibson in ’89 and Joe
Carter in ’93.
Thomson’s home run sent the Giants to the World Series and is called
“The Shot Heard Around the World.”
Gibson limped out of the dugout to give
the Dodgers a win with a walk-off homer in the opening game of the World
Series against Oakland. Carter’s blast
gave the Blue Jays the Series title in
six games. And in all of baseball history, Mazeroski is still the only player to
end the seventh game of the World Series with a walk-off homer, lifting the
Pittsburgh Pirates to an improbable
win over the New York Yankees.
Baseball is all about statistics.
There are stats that cover virtually
every movement of the game. I saw a
stat this week that details the ultimate
walk-off home run — a grand slam to
erase a 3-run lead with two outs. It has
occurred 15 times in baseball history.
The career leader in walk-off hits is
Hall of Famer Frank Robinson with 27.
Dusty Baker, current manager of the
Washington Nationals, is second with 25.
Derek Jeter, the Yankee great who
retired in 2014, had relatively few
walk-off hits in his career, but he had a
flair for the dramatic. His final hit was
a walk-off single. His 3000th hit was a
homer and a game-winning RBI.
At any level, a walk-off hit is a singular moment in sports — as local
players like Davis and Mills can attest.

Chincoteague Comeback Caps Key Win Over Nandua
Chincoteague’s Collin Derrickson
had a bases-clearing double in the seventh inning to erase a short-lived 4-3
lead Nandua took in the bottom of the
sixth inning with a three-run rally to
give the Ponies a key 7-4 district win
over the Warriors last Thursday. It was
Derrickson’s second double of the game.
Dustin Holloway had a 3-for-3 day

double. Dylan and Ryan Mason each
had two singles, and Joe Thornton added an RBI single.
“It was a great game and big win for
us, but it’s early in the season with 11
regular season games left,” said Chincoteague coach Will Thompson. “We
still are trying to figure ourselves out.
A lot of things we have to fix to make
us strong to be able to go deep in middle to late May.”

Hunter Hickman each had two hits.
Evan McGregor had a key two-RBI
double in the home half of the sixth inning for Nandua.

Chincoteague captured its first soccer win in several years with a 2-1 win
over Franklin Friday.
Tristan Binder scored a pair of goals
in the first half, and the Pony defense
held on to the lead. Chincoteague coach
Charles Heath said Caroline Thornton,
Issac Haymond and Chris Conser were
key contributors in the win. “This was

years that helped us get to this point.”

thought our back line of Jonathan Esteban, Trevor Cooper, Orge Abiradua
and Beto Marquez did a quality job.
We were better prepared to play a good
team in Arcadia.”
Nandua Softballers Continue To Roll Through District
Story and photos by Bill Sterling
Down 3-0 entering its final at-bat,
Nandua scored three runs in the seventh inning with the help of a two-run
homer by Tyra Bjorlo to force extra innings, and then scored two more runs
in the eighth inning on a two-run double by Emily Justis before holding off
home-standing Essex for a 5-4 win Saturday on the road.
Justis, pitching the entire game because D’errica Toppin was out with a
hamstring injury, got the win while
allowing eight hits and giving up two
earned runs.
Warrior leadoff hitter Sara Gepes
also had two hits.
“Our defense played well, holding
runners to fewer bases and making
good plays,” said Nandua coach Lynn
Williams. “Michaela Wescott ran down
a ball in the gap that most center fielders have no chance at. It was an allaround team effort, and it was great to
see players stepping up when we have
injuries.”
Nandua Tops Chincoteague
D’errica Toppin had three hits, including two doubles, and three RBIs
and also pitched a one-hit shutout as
Nandua registered a 10-0 win over
Chincoteague last Thursday. Kimberly

inning broke open the game.
Cassie Nadeau, Michalea Lewis and
Mackenzie Widgeon paced the hitting

Arcadia Boys Win E.S. Invitational
Story and photos by Bill Sterling
The Arcadia boys won Saturday’s
Eastern Shore Invitational in a sixteam field that included track powerhouse Norfolk Academy. The Firebirds

36, and Cape Henry at 8.
Arcadia coach Sean Norberg said,
“We are pointing to the district meet
with the hopes of qualifying quite a
few athletes for the regional and state
meets, where we can make an impact if
we keep improving our marks.”
For the Firebird boys, Tah’re Pettit
won both the 400 (51.89) and the 200
(24.34) while Devon Rogers won the 100
(11.9) and was second in the 200 (24.9).

Finally something has happened
to solve the issue of public restrooms.
Yippee!
Recent proposed and adopted bills
have stirred up a lot of controversy and
given people something to talk about
over the “water cooler.” But the deep
seeded issue has been in my mind forever. It is called PRIVACY.
I don’t care who you are. I don’t
want you in the bathroom when I am
in there. I like public restrooms that
have big locks on the doors and are se-
cluded. If you are interested, I can tell
you where those places are because I
seek them out.
If there is an issue about school
restrooms, I say put walls and doors
around all stalls and don’t let more
than one person in there at a time.
Real life does not involve the likes
of the restrooms on the old television
show, “Ally McBeal.” If people want
to flush before they go and have their
own remote control that allows them to
do that, I don’t want to know about it.
I don’t like to share the limelight. I
grew up as the only girl in the family
and I am not used to having others in
the facility with me. I don’t care what
sex you are. Stay away from me while
I’m concentrating.
Did you know that there is actually a website that lists the top 15 bathroom scenes in movies? Yep. Don’t expect me to provide that bit of trivia.
Maybe just Hollywood could continue to allow more than one person in
the bathroom at a time so the writers
could continue to find movie topics?

Current Mayor Endorses
Leonard To Replace Him
Dear Editor:
In 17 years as mayor of Chincoteague, I have not
been one to write letters to the editor, but after reading recent letters and witnessing the political tactics
of our council meetings, I’m compelled to do so.
It seems that my supporting
Arthur Leonard for mayor has
upset at least one candidate and
some council members. This was
a decision I did not take lightly,
after 17 years as mayor and a total of 22 years on council, working
through some very difficult times
in our community. I know what it takes to be mayor.
First, I would like to address the comment of there
being only one candidate who has contacts and relationships with federal, state and local government
officials. The town of Chincoteague, its council, mayor, Beach Committee and staff are the ones who have
made those contacts and been working with federal
and state officials. Council hired a firm to represent
us in Washington and open those doors. Councilman
Leonard has been a part of this process and continues to be.
The idea of having PRIVACY could
eliminate the need to have someone
hold the door shut for you. Oh yipppee!
Bathroom doors that work! And maybe
people would stop locking the opening
and then climbing out the bottom of
the stall so that no one can use it. Who
are the guilty parties of that crime?
There’s something to ponder.
And those crazy “Punked” videos of
people wiping Nutella on the hands of
people when they share the toilet paper
roll would be eliminated. Outrageous!
I also read that in Oregon it is illegal
to lie down in a public restroom. Does
anybody do that? Why? It is also illegal
for two people to share a stall meant
for one. Does that mean adults can’t
take their children in there? Really?
And then there was the website that
asked businesses to consider adding
“background music to enhance public
bathroom privacy.” Eureka!
“Customers can hear less from
their neighbors in adjacent bathroom
stalls,” the site states. “But there are
a few caveats: background music in
Second, I would like to address the widening of
our inlet. Town Council, with help from our consultant, applied for a Corps of Engineers project to look
at the southern end of Assateague and our inlet.
Third, consider the Park Service General Management Plan that addresses aquaculture, duck
blinds, watch-houses, and horseshoe harvesting.
Town Council and especially Councilman Leonard,
who has been a hunter and a watch-house owner all
his life, have been working with our state officials almost on a daily basis, already bringing about changes to allow commercial fishing by right.
I have addressed only a couple of
issues to prove Chincoteague, with
the sitting council with help from
our community, are the ones who
have the clout with our state and
federal elected officials, not just one
person.
Councilman Leonard is a lifelong resident of
Chincoteague Island; his family is one of the oldest
business owners on the island. Arthur attended Hargrave Military School, then on to East Carolina, back
home as a business owner, decoy carver, boat captain
and most important a father who has helped coach
his son’s teams, worked with the Museum of Chincoteague with its decoy collection, and helped get a
DU project back to the island, to name a few.
As mayor, I tackled my job with dedication, honesty and most important, respect for others. My de-
Post OpEd Pages
public bathrooms is more appropriate
in some venues, such as restaurants,
than others, such as airports, where
sound systems are needed to announce
flight information, or office buildings,
where the music might permeate outside the restroom and distract workers.” Is it me or did I not read that last
part correctly?
And believe it or not there is actually a list of bathroom apps.
Check out www.sitorsquat.com,
which is made available through a
toilet paper company. It allows you to
“search, view, rate and add bathrooms.”
It’s free and worldwide. Oh yippee.
Another one is called “potty points,
The more points you earn, the higher you climb … not only can you own
the bragging rights over your friends,
but you can earn achievements along
the way. Become a Knight, a King,
or an Emperor. Prefer photography?
Earn the Shutterbug or even Paparazzi achievement!”
Did someone say competition is a
wonderful thing?
cision to support a candidate for mayor was based on
these factors.
I feel Councilman Arthur Leonard will listen to
others, have respect for everyone, and work with others for the betterment of our community.
To him it’s not about I or me; it’s about what is
best for the community at large.
Thanks for all the support over the years; it’s been
an honor to serve this community as its mayor.
Please vote for Arthur Leonard on May 3.
Mayor Jack Tarr, Chincoteague
Leonard Would Continue
Town’s Inclusive Style
Dear Editor:
I write this letter to encourage you to support
Arthur Leonard for mayor of Chincoteague Island
when you vote on May 3.
Our island is a unique place. The tremendous efforts of our public servants, led by Mayor Tarr over
the last 17 years, have yielded amazing and impressive results for Chincoteague. The mayor has encouraged the town to work closely with local businesses, residents, tourists, the chamber of commerce,
and many non-profit and civic organizations to make
Chincoteague the vibrant, stand-out community it is.
These partnerships have made our community
the envy of many other small towns across the country. During one of the worst recessions in our nation-
al history, our town has prospered because we realized many accomplishments that enabled us to keep
a steady stream of tax revenue from our visitors.
This inclusive style has given our town a YMCA,
a first-rate museum, a community library, a restored
historic theater, CCA’s extensive entertainment offerings, new parks, new playground equipment, the
Island Activity Center, history tours, many special
events such as the upcoming “Brew ’n Que,” and the
Bay-to-Bay Run, to name just a few.
And I cannot fail to mention the continuing work
with Fish and Wildlife and the National Park Service
to insure that the town continues to have a seat at
the table as life-changing decisions are made about
our beach and inlet.
We MUST maintain open communication to insure our needs are both heard and met.
These considerable accomplishments happened
because of the efforts and inclusive style of Jack Tarr.
And they will continue to happen when Arthur Leonard brings his knowledge of and love for this community to the office of mayor.
Please join me in voting for Arthur Leonard on
May 3. He will move our beloved island forward in
a civil and productive manner that will enhance the
quality of life for all of our citizens.
Nancy Lane, Chincoteague
Congressman Endorses
Thornton for Mayor
Dear Editor:
I have come to rely heavily on Wanda Thornton’s
wise advice and good counsel in my service to the
beautiful town of Chincoteague.
I’ve seen firsthand that Wanda is a principled and
effective leader, and her knowledge of the issues is
unmatched.
That’s why I proudly endorse Wanda and support her campaign to serve as the next mayor of
Chincoteague.
Congressman Scott Rigell, Va. Second District
Leonard Also Has Relationships
with Important Officials
Dear Editor:
A recent opinion published from some members
of Chincoteague Town Council in support of Wanda
Thornton, and their belief she is the ONLY candidate to have “already established contacts and close
working relationships with government officials and
government agencies at county, state and federal levels” is absurd.
While this is their opinion, in fact, Mrs. Thornton
is not the only candidate to have these relationships.
Arthur Leonard has solid relationships with varying
officials, including Sen. Kaine and State Sen. Lewis,
as well as officials with the Park Service and county
supervisors. This is not an exhaustive list, merely a
small sample of established relationships. These will
be vital in the near future.
Certainly, Mrs. Thornton has served Chincoteague
for many, many years and we are grateful for her efforts; however, I think a new approach and leadership are necessary. We are in need of cooperation
with and representation from other leaders from
various departments and levels to combat detrimental decisions in which the residents’ opinion is heard
but often times disregarded.
It is my opinion, Arthur Leonard will provide our
best avenue to gain the support we need from those
who hold the ultimate decision power. Mayor Tarr’s
endorsement of Mr. Leonard should be noted, as who
would know more of what the next mayor will face
better than the current one?
Mayor Tarr and Mrs. Thornton’s decisions not to
seek re-election as mayor and supervisor seem to
show that even seasoned generals grow battle weary. While I respect and admire both for their many
years of service and efforts, we continue to see more
regulations and decisions handed down that threaten our way of life.
The time has come to pass the torch to new leadership, draw fresh swords and continue the battle to
maintain and enhance this island we are so blessed
to call home. Arthur Leonard is the person to bring
new effort and leadership to further our goals.
William Tucker, Chincoteague
Keep John & Aileen Joeckel on
Wachapreague Town Council
Dear Editor:
The purpose of this letter is to express our full
support for the re-election of John and Aileen Joeckel
to Wachapreague Town Council in the May 3rd election, which is extremely important to the future of
our town.
We feel that without John and Aileen on the council, moving the town forward in a financially healthy
way will not happen. Most of the current council has
been together for almost four years; we have worked
together as a team and have achieved significant
accomplishments.
The opposition in this election is saying, “We need
to take back our town!” Back to what? Higher property taxes, pay for the mayor and council, no dredging
and minimal accomplishments on other important
issues. The present council’s first act was to eliminate town council compensation because we believe
it is our civic duty to serve the town without pay.
This council has:
•reduced property taxes by 25 percent;
•increased town savings by 13 percent, which
would have been 38 percent but we purchased 25
acres that contained the town-permitted dredge
spoils site;
•obtained various grants from the Virginia Port
Authority to maintain our town marina;
•achieved dredging of Wachapreague Channel
and Bradford’s Bay Channel after decades of neglect;
•led the creation of the Eastern Shore Regional
Navigable Waterways Committee, a regional bi-county approach to waterway issues;
•created the Business and Tourism Advisory
Board composed of town business and citizen representatives that plans marketing initiatives and town
events;
•completed the Comprehensive Plan required by
Virginia, the first final revision since 1983;
•published the annual Year-In-Review to ensure
all our residents are informed of the state of the town
•proposed a Fishing/Crabbing Pier & Nature
Walk with about 94 percent funding from grants.
We are finishing up the new town website designed to highlight lifestyle attributes that the town
has to offer both residents and visitors
After decades of neglect and inaction, an ordinance was passed to change the 911 county map to
match residents’ longtime 911 house numbers.
After decades of neglect, the sidewalks in town
were extensively repaired.
Much of these achievements would not have been
implemented without John and Aileen Joeckel, who
have worked tirelessly, with the total support of the
present council, to make our “Little City by the Sea”
a wonderful place to live and raise families.
Vice Mayor/Councilwoman Bonnie Munn
Councilman Stuart Bell
Councilwoman Susie Atkinson
Councilwoman Jeanette Sturgis
