This cost would be absorbed by

The town of Vienna in Fairfax
County, chartered in 1890, is
running into stiff opposition ir
its first bid for expansion.
County authorities, far from
welcoming the threatened bur.
geoning of the. tiny community
have marshalled legal arguments
to head off the expansion.
Opposition has also developed
within the 2.3 square mile
area the town seeks. More than
100 residents of the area have
formed a committee to oppose
the Vienna annexation and
hired an attorney.
When the town was created
it had about 81 square miles.
Its area has remained I'M
changed since. A measure of its
growth in recent years however,
may be seen in the population
jump from 2,026 in 1850 to an
estimated 1890 now.
