Loudoun County, Virginia is divided into eight magisterial districts: Algonkian, Ashburn, Broad Run, Catoctin, Dulles, Leesburg, Little River, and Sterling. The magisterial districts each elect one supervisor to the Board of Supervisors which governs Loudoun County. There is also a Chair elected by the county at-large, bringing total Board membership to nine. Board members serve concurrent, four-year terms. A Vice Chair is selected by the Board from among its membership. The current Chair is Phyllis Randall and the current Vice Chair is Juli Briskman, the Algonkian District Supervisor.[1] She has served as Vice Chair since January 2024. Salaries for the current Board term of 2024-2027 were set by the previous Board in January 2023.[2]

Meeting schedule
editThe Board of Supervisors meeting schedule is set forth is its Rules of Order.[3] Business meetings typically occur twice monthly, beginning on the first Tuesday of the month at 5:00 p.m. The Board holds one public hearing monthly, currently on the Wednesday at 6:00 p.m. that follows the first business meeting. The second business meeting occurs at 5:00 p.m. on the next Tuesday following the public hearing. The Board's standing committees[4] also usually meet monthly. The meetings are held at the Loudoun County Government Center, 1 Harrison Street, S.E. in Leesburg. The Board's official meeting schedule is published in accordance with § 2.2-3707 of Virginia Freedom of Information Act[5] (FOIA) on the master calendar on the county's website.
Actions
editAs empowered by the Code of Virginia, the Board of Supervisors typically takes action within its purview during each of its business meetings, public hearings, and standing committee meetings. The Board has both administrative and legislative responsibilities, some of which are discharged in the role of the local governing body and some of which have derived from its function as an administrative subdivision of the state. The powers and duties of the Board of Supervisors include:
- Adopting the county budget (establishing appropriations and setting the tax rates);
- Approving and enforcing the county's comprehensive land use plan and related ordinances;
- Making and enforcing ordinances for public safety, sanitation, health and other regulations permitted by state laws; and
- Providing for the care and treatment of indigent and handicapped citizens.[6]
Over time, a Board of Supervisors may take thousands of individual actions in open session by motion and majority vote during its meetings. The official actions of the Loudoun County Board of Superiors are documented on the county's website, in the form of a copy teste,[7] a "true copy" of the county's official record of Board actions, produced, signed, and published by the clerk on the county's website.

Clarke was elected Vice-Chair on January 3, 2012, and served until December 31, 2012, choosing not to hold the position a second year.[16] On January 2, 2013, Williams was elected to serve as the next Vice-Chair,[17] a position he held until March 2015. Williams resigned the Vice-Chair post on March 16, 2015, after a 2006 arrest for assault in Ocean City, Maryland resurfaced.[18] Two days later, on March 18, 2015, the Board elected Buona as the new Vice-Chair,[19] a position he held through the remainder of the term. On September 6, 2015, Shawn Williams, the Broad Run District Supervisor, resigned his supervisor position after being arrested for simple assault and unlawful entry earlier that day.[20] The Board appointed Jim Bonfils to fill the Broad Run District seat on September 21, 2015,[21] from a list of 13 applicants (including former Broad Run District Supervisors Steve Stockman, David McWatters, and Chuck Harris).[22] Bonfils was sworn in on September 22, 2015,[23] and served out the remaining 101 days of the term.

The sole Democrat on the Board, Mercer District Supervisor Thomas Dodson, later resigned his position effective December 31, 1993, after taking a job out of the area.[36] The Board appointed Republican Ready Snodgrass in January 1994 to fill the Mercer District seat, bringing the Board under total Republican control.[37] She subsequently won the November 8, 1994, special election to permanently fill the seat.[38]

In November 1983, Loudoun voters elected four Democrats and four Republicans to the Board of Supervisors, making for an even split. The Supervisors agreed to alternate the Chair position between a Republican and a Democrat ever year for the four-year term. Blue Ridge District Supervisor James Brownell served as Chair during both the Republican years, first from January 1984 to December 1984, and second from January 1986 to December 1986. Democratic Leesburg District Supervisor Frank Raflo served as Chair from January 1985 to December 1985. On January 5, 1987, Democratic Guilford District Supervisor Betty Tatum was elected Chair, become the first woman in the history of the Board of Supervisors to lead the group.[48] In December 1986, Leesburg District Supervisor Frank Raflo resigned for health reasons.[49] Later that month, the Board appointed Charles Bos to fill the Leesburg District seat and serve out the remainder of the term.[50]

Due to rapid development around the continually growing Sterling area, the populations of the Broad Run and Sterling Districts were vastly greater than the populations of the other five districts. To address this population discrepancy, throughout 1974 and 1975, the Board went through a redistricting process in the eastern part of Loudoun County. Through the redistricting process, the Board approved a plan to split the area consisting of the existing Broad Run and Sterling Districts into three districts, thus creating one new district. This newly added eighth district would be called the Guilford District. Due to the redistricting occurring in an election year, the Supervisor for the newly created district had to be appointed. On December 16, 1975, Bob Scheetz was sworn-in as the Guilford District supervisor. Carl Hendrickson and George Yeager were also sworn in on the same day to take their seats as Supervisors for the redrawn Broad Run and Sterling Districts.[60] Before the November 1976 special election was held to permanently fill the Guilford seat, Scheetz was challenged by Gerry Gardner in a Democratic primary that same year. Gardner won the Democratic primary, and subsequently won the November 2, 1976, special election as well, becoming the first woman to serve on the Loudoun County Board of Supervisors.[53][54]
In June 1978, Sterling District Supervisor George Yeager, the Board Chair since January 1978, resigned his seat to accept a job in West Virginia, effective July 11, 1978.[61] The Board appointed Shannon Geddie to fill the Sterling District seat, becoming the second woman to serve on the Loudoun County Board of Supervisors when she was sworn in on July 17, 1978.[62] She won the 1978 special election to retain the Supervisor position, but later lost the 1979 general election.[63] The Chair position formerly held by Yeager was filled by Broad Run District Supervisor Carl Henrickson. Dulles District Supervisor Henry Stowers remained Vice-Chair.[64] During this term, Mercer District Supervisor William Crossman, a Democrat,[65] held the Chair position from January 1976 to December 1977.[66][67][68]

On June 23, 1971, the Board adopted its new districts, dropping the Jefferson, Lovettsville, and Mount Gilead district names in favor of Dulles, Catoctin, and Blue Ridge. The Sterling District was also created, bringing the total number of districts to seven.[71]
In October 1974, Sterling District Supervisor Paul Walstad resigned, with the October 15, 1974, meeting being his last. James Cave was appointed by a judge to fill the vacant Sterling District seat, attending his first meeting on November 5, 1974.[70]
