Lack of proper and required silt fencing and general maintenance leads to partially clogged storm drains. I have documented this environmental negligence for nearly 2 years.
Valley Development of Vienna, Virginia has proven to be an absentee slumlord. Google the hashtag #cedarvalejustice as further evidence of corporate environmental malfeasance.
The deadline for submitting my county commission candidate profile was October 15th. The IT has yet to publish our candidate profiles yet early voting started back on October 17th.
I sent an email to the reporter who sent me the profile for me to answer. This reporter has always been courteous and prompt in our email exchanges. I have nothing personal to hold against this reporter. The buck stops on the editor’s desk, the same editor who has ignored me and my family for the past 495 days.
Below is the email I sent to the reporter yesterday. I have yet to hear back from them.
I edited out the personal greeting I gave to the reporter to protect her identity…
I was just wondering when the county commission profiles will be published?
Over 10,000 votes have been cast so far. It would have been nice to have some of them see our profiles first.
I totally understand. The editor runs the show. I understand elections have consequences. I understand the cozy relationship Mark has with the incumbents. I am not as dumb as I look. Despite being nothing but respectful to Mark, he obviously despises me and cares very little about my father, who I brought by Mark’s office 494 days ago about a story concerning developers cheating my family. I laid a gift in his lap. What “journalist” would pass up a chance to shine a light on out of state multi-millionaire developers cheating a Korean War Navy Veteran and his disabled wife? I have never been so disappointed in someone than I have with Mark.
Mark Plemmons @markplemmons had a chance to help a Navy War Veteran who was cheated by out of state developers. It has been 473 days since I introduced my father to Mark. He seemed so interested in my parent’s struggle. Never heard a peep back. #cedarvalejustice @indytribune

Paging Mr. Mark Plemmons….
It has been 473 days since I brought my Korean War Veteran father to your office to introduce him and tell our family story.
473 days of deafening silence…
Ironically, that was just before the county commission meeting where I spoke and introduced my father and told my family’s story. Not a peep. Not a “Thank you for serving our country, Mr. Hill” or anything…
Just 473 days of deafening silence and disrespect from Mark and his paper. 473 days since the GOP county commission ignored my veteran father.
What would you do in my shoes, Mark Plemmons?
Dear Bonterra Builders, You profit because of the sacrifice of an Korean War Vet and his disabled wife, my parents.
Does that seem fair and just to you? If you want to help, I have some suggestions….#bonterrabuilders #cedarvalejustice #cedarvalefarms pic.twitter.com/b4T41ehqL0
