Message To The Gloucester County Board of Supervisors

Open Letter to the Citizens of Gloucester County Virginia


I write today because the county is out of touch with the people of Gloucester.  I read the story Mr. Thompson posted about a Ware Neck resident that took Gloucester County to Court and won only to have Ted Wilmot appeal the decision.

What is Mr. Wilmot trying to accomplish? Is he trying to make life miserable for anyone that is not part of his circle?  Is this payback to the citizens of Gloucester County since Louse Theberge did not get the republican nomination for supervisor?  The county approved both homes being built on the property if there is anyone responsible for the situation it is the county by allowing both homes on one property in the first place.  The zoning ordinance was established by the county it was not directed by any higher government; it is allowed by the state.  The county makes exceptions to rules when it is in their interest.  The court has ruled and the county should allow this to go forward.

Mr. Wilmot was hired under questionable practices by the Board of Supervisors several years ago; we have removed most of the supervisors that were involved and should not bring any of th
em back into the county government.  It is time for Mr. Wilmot to be removed from his position.  This can be easily done.  Mr. Thompson has shown in his blog that some of the practices of Mr Wilmot are very questionable, possibly illegal, and that he does not follow Virginia Commonwealth Law while writing County ordinances.  Why would a law abiding organization like our Board of Supervisors choice to keep him as an employee?

Gloucester County Board of Supervisors: tell Mr. Wilmot to drop this case that he has on your behalf.  Also, tell him his services are no longer needed as of December 31, 2013.  People of Gloucester, let the supervisors know how you feel.  We do not need this kind of treatment of our citizens.

“For the Common Good. “

Sincerely,
Alexander James Jay

Associated Press |

ABINGDON — A police chief in southwestern Virginia has been charged with drug distribution.

Marion Police Chief Michael Dean Roberts was arrested this morning on one count of distribution of a controlled substance. An affidavit filed by a federal agent in U.S. District Court in Abingdon accuses the 54-year-old Saltville resident of selling the prescription painkiller Lortab to a cooperating witness.
Court records do not list an attorney for Roberts, and no hearing date has been scheduled.
Roberts did not immediately respond to telephone and email messages seeking comment.


Can we trust those who have been sworn to protect us anymore?  It looks like we need new standards.

Recipe Of The Day - Game Soup - Whitehouse Cookbook Recipes

289/365 SOUP
289/365 SOUP (Photo credit: cheesy42)
From an 1887 Whitehouse Cookbook;

Two grouse or partridges, or, if you have neither, use a pair of
rabbits; half a pound of lean ham; two medium-sized onions; one pound
of lean beef; fried bread; butter for frying; pepper, salt and two
stalks of white celery cut into inch lengths; three quarts of water.
Joint your game neatly; cut the ham and onions into small pieces, fry
all in butter to a light brown. Put into a soup-pot with the beef, cut
into strips, add a little pepper. Pour on the water; heat slowly, and
stew gently two hours. Take out the pieces of bird, and cover in a
bowl; cook the soup an hour longer; strain; cool; drop in the celery
and simmer ten minutes. Pour upon fried bread in the tureen.
Venison soup made the same, with the addition of a tablespoonful of
brown flour wet into a paste with cold water, adding a tablespoonful
of catsup, Worcestershire, or other pungent sauce, and a glass of
Madeira or brown sherry.


An historical recipe straight from the Whitehouse.

Ware Neck resident wins case in circuit court ruling - Ted Wilmot Seeks Revenge?



1:45 p.m. EDTJune 18, 2013

GLOUCESTER — Ware Neck resident Judith Doyel won a small victory in Gloucester County Circuit Court on Tuesday when a judge granted her request to divide a single property with two homes on it over the objections of county officials.
But her victory was tempered when County Attorney Ted Wilmot said he would appeal the case to the Virginia Supreme Court, a move that will cost Doyel thousands more in legal fees and an unknown amount of time waiting out the legal process.
Doyel and her attorney, Bob Hicks, had successfully convinced visiting Judge Walter J. Ford to grant the request to divide equally 7.4 acres on Marshfield Road in Ware Neck. Doyel has been trying to sell the property with two homes on it since December 2011.

A contract on the property a year ago was nullified, however, because an appraiser couldn't find any comparable properties to arrive at a value and no mortgage companies would lend the purchaser money to finance the sale, according to court testimony.
Doyel applied to subdivide the property and filed an application with the county last year, but it was denied by Planning Director Anne Ducey-Ortiz. In court, Ducey-Ortiz testified that as much as she wants to help Doyel, she is supposed to enforce county ordinances.
In Doyel's case, those zoning ordinances in her area prohibit lots of less than five acres with homes on them and bars private roads such as Marshfield serving more than 3 lots; the road serves five.
A farmhouse and a manufactured home were on the property prior to the enactment of the county's zoning and planning ordinances in 1998.
Hicks told Ford that Doyel isn't asking to put anything new on the property. The homes have separate driveways, septic systems, wells and even addresses and keeping them has become a financial hardship for her.
In his ruling, Ford said that Doyel has been deprived of her right to sell her property and "that's a hardship."
Wilmot's move to appeal the case caught Doyel and Hicks by surprise.
"It makes no sense," Doyel said.


This is typical of Gloucester County government.  This article lacks detail in regards to the ordinance in question.  We have shown numerous times on this site that Gloucester County has little to no regard for state law when making local ordinances and have made a number of local ordinances in violation of state law. Could this be another area where the county has done just that?  

  Maybe someone should sue Ted Wilmot for the hardships he is creating here.  This is also part of the reason Louise Theberge was voted out recently.  The people of Gloucester County are tired of these kinds of cruel politics and have made it well known that we are not going to take it anymore.  It would seem to us that there is a grandfather clause in this case seeing as the homes existed on the property prior to the 1998 zoning ordinance.  Is Judith Doyel just being milked here?

This is your county tax dollars working against a citizen of Gloucester.  Send Ted Wilmot an email letting him know not to waste your tax dollars like this.  His email address is ewilmot@gloucesterva.info
