Supervisor Ron Llewellyn's 7 Sins Against Warren County, VA.

Letter sent to The Northern Virginia Daily and The Warren Sentinel:

10-12-2007

Letter To The Editor:

Previous letters written by Mr. LaBarca, Mr. Haynes, Mr. & Mrs. Stephenson, and Ms. Cable give praise, support, and little else of substance for Mr. Llewellyn's bid for re-election as Supervisor for the North River District. Blind loyalty does little towards evaluating Mr. Llewellyn's actions.

If we are to believe these folks, Mr. Llewellyn has single-handedly claimed responsibility for so many wonderful things there remains precious little for the other Supervisors to claim as their own accomplishments.

Please allow me to give additional credit to Mr. Llewellyn for his documented actions not mentioned by his friends.

1) Mr. Llewellyn raised our taxes. Should we praise and thank Llewellyn for raising taxes?

2) Mr. Llewellyn filed a false Economic Interest Statement describing his real estate holdings and business interests. Should we praise and thank Llewellyn for "forgetting" what he owned and who his business partners are?

3) Mr. Llewellyn has received over $2,000,000.00 from Brookfield Washington LLC, his business partner developing Catlett Road and Swan Farm subdivisions, without providing independently verifiable information concerning the transaction. Brookfield is partnered with Llewellyn on 2 rezoning projects brought before the Board of Supervisors while Mr. Llewellyn is a sitting member. Should we praise and thank Llewellyn for taking huge sums of money from a company with official business before the Board?

4) Mr. Llewellyn used Warren County Attorney Douglas Napier as his Registered Agent on file with the State Corporation Commission for 3 of his businesses, Swan Farm LLC, Catlett Road LLC, and LBX3, LLC. Napier was County Attorney when he became Llewellyn's agent. Llewellyn was a sitting member of the Board of Supervisors when 2 of the filings were made. Douglas Napier was Warren County Attorney from 1976 until his abrupt, no-notice, resignation last August. Should we praise and thank Llewellyn for thinking he was creating no possible conflict of interest using the County Attorney as his personal attorney?

5) Mr. Llewellyn tried to sell Warren County water rights to Frederick County in exchange for water and sewer service to 2 of his personal business projects. Should we praise and thank Llewellyn for his poor business sense?

6) Mr. Llewellyn destroyed the relationship between Front Royal and Warren County due to water issues for his projects. Should we praise and thank Llewellyn for poor interpersonal skills?

7) Mr. Llewellyn has demonstrated a willingness to prefer his personal business interests before his responsibility to his constituents. People without power trust and depend upon those with power to protect and defend them.

Should we praise and thank Mr. Llewellyn for betraying our trust?
