Albemarle Supervisor Sally Thomas, an avid fighter for rural preservation who came to office on that most unlikely of methods–- a write-in campaign–- will be celebrated Monday, December 14, at the County Office Building in Charlottesville. The event recognizing her 16 years of service takes place from 3-5pm, with refreshments throughout, and speeches and a presentation at 3:20pm. Though some of Thomas' work appears to be suddenly unraveling these days–- such as putting growth in the growth area (if Biscuit Run conks out) and building a giant reservoir (again, if Biscuit Run conks out)–- voters in the Samuel Miller Magisterial District have known Thomas as an avid student of the issues and an eager enforcer of the 'neighborhood model' for development.
