Precautions on Preventing Fires During Winter

Officials Issue Home Heating Safety Reminders in Wake of Sterling Townhouse Fire

Loudoun County fire officials are reminding residents to take safety precautions when heating their homes during this extended cold spell. The reminder comes after a townhouse fire in Sterling that caused an estimated $50,000 in damage.

The fire was under control within twenty minutes and was contained to the one unit. There were no reported injuries. The occupants of the home were displaced by the fire and are staying locally with friends.

The Loudoun County Fire Marshal's Office determined the cause to be accidental in nature, originating from the chimney and spreading to the roof.

Fire officials remind residents to be diligent about safety when heating their homes this winter. According to the National Fire Protection Association, fireplaces, chimneys and chimney connectors account for the largest share of home heating fire incidents. Creosote build-up is the leading cause of chimney fires. Follow these safety precautions to ensure your family is safe:

" Keep anything that can burn at least 3 feet away from your fireplace or wood stove.
" Have your chimney, fireplace, or wood stove inspected and cleaned annually.
" Burn only dry, well-seasoned wood that has been split, stacked, and allowed to dry for 12 months.
" Have a sturdy screen on a fireplace, and allow ashes to cool before disposing of them in a metal container away from your home.
" Install carbon monoxide alarms in your home.
" Ensure smoke alarms are installed and functional, testing them once a month.

Loudoun Water Rate Hike In Your Future?
Why promote elitists to our utility company?

I support average citizen members to the Loudoun Water board that are pledged to reduce unnecessary spending for elaborate offices and overpriced projects so I nominated former Water Board member Dimitri Kesari to an expired term. Charlie McKinney is a former Republican Chairman and Ben Belrose is a former GOP district chairman. All three are just your "average citizen".

Any of these are qualified -- in my opinon-- but Kesari is a nominee devoted to budget reduction and serves as a long time defender of Sterling values. Kesari is a manager of national campaigns, many Virginia campaigns, served 4 years on the water board under Republicans and was elected to local town office. This Republican and the other GOPers would be blocked by a new proposal.

Some board of supervisor members like Scott York want to block average citizens from serving on the utility rates board and only allow "professionals" or elitists and want to specifically and catergorically bar "average" citizens.

This decision will be made by the board of supervisors at their February meeting.

I believe if they put "professionals" on the Loudoun Water Board it will result in higher water rates for Sterling residents as "professionals" are not going to pledge to keep water utility rates down.

If you believe your water bill should be carefully watched by someone who is known for cutting waste, then tell the board to keep "average" citizens like Dimitri Kesari on the board. Write the board at [email protected]
