PLANNING EXPERT TOURS ARLINGTON Definite Steps Taken in County Toward Employment of Zoning Engineer. « BY LESTER N. INSKEEP, Staff Correspondent of The Star. ARLINGTON COUNTY COURT HOUSE, Va, April 4—Definite steps toward the employment of an engineer to carry out the zoring of the county were taken todly when Saville, phnnlng expert of Rich- mond, was taken on a tour of the ‘i county by the . zoning committee of the Arlington County Chamber of - Commerce, of which Ashton. C. Jones is chairman. They were accom- thed by M: lam R. Richards, the most recent appointee to the zonln‘ commis- €. L. Kinnler. Fouowhu the tour of the county, which was expected to consume the gréater part of the day, it was planned to have Saville appear he(nre the Chamber of Commerce board meeting which is to be held tonight in Clarendon. Efforts were being made today to have the three members of the board of county supervisors present at the meeting, Choice May Be Made Tonight. ‘Those interested in the appointment of an engineer were doubtful whether a selection will be made tonight, al- though they held that such action might be possible. It is unlikely, how- ever, that the board of supervisors, in whom the final decision lles, will meet in executive session for definite: action at this time. The Chamber of Commerce zoning commission is acting in a purely ad- visory ‘capacity inthe -selection of the engineer, but has been given a wider latitude in the matter than might ordinarily have been expected due to the fact that they are raising a half of the funds with which to employ the engineer and carry out the work. Members of the reorganized zoning commission were notified' last night by C. L. Kinnler, county engineer, to a pear at the courthouse tomorrow nigl c and complete their organizaticn. Chairman te Be Chosen. ‘The most important action to be taken and one in which the interest of those concerned centers is the selection of & chairman, it being held as prac- tically certain that A. J. Webb, secre- tary of the old commission, will be re- elected. Material for chairman is centered in '.he ofl:er four members, Maj. Richards, rt H. Forman, J. E. Spaulding and Pr:d A. Gosnell. There is a possibility, it was rumored today, that the zoning of the county can be accomplished at & much lower re than was at first contemplated by the two. erganizations in whom'the financial responsibility lies. If this is true the $10,000 fund will be sufficient to not only earry out the zoi , but to insure the administration of the ordinance for more than & year. ‘Those in charge of raising the funds for the expense of the zoning today stressed the point that the commission itself is purely of a civic nature and that all of the members serve without pay. —e Present Comedy April 14.
