With the pull-out of developers in the Cooks Corner brewpub project, at least one county supervisor feels an urgency now to repair the roof on the old Rappahannock Central Elementary (RCE) school cafeteria/auditorium building.

Harmony Village Supervisor Reggie Williams cautioned board members on Tuesday, Dec. 1, that the roof at RCE is in need of major repair and needs to be worked on soon.
