Item 12.2. Readoption of Boards and Commissions Appointment Policy.
Mrs. Humphris noted that there were some boards and commissions not listed
on the schedule for advertisement, under Item #13. For example, she could not
find on either list the Equalization Board, Albemarle County Service Authority,
January 5, 1994 (Regular Day Meeting)
(Page 4)
00080
Regional Disabilities Service Board or the Social Services Board. She also added
that since these boards and commissions are called by various names, there needs
to be an index included in the appointments book.
Mrs. Thomas referred to Item ~11 in the policy which states: "Ail
incumbents will be allowed to serve two consecutive terms on a board or
commission without his/her position being readvertised .... " She thinks that all
positions should be advertised instead of giving persons a free, unadvertised
second term because that cuts down on opportunities for citizen participation.
She feels that all openings should be advertised and the incumbent allowed to
indicate whether he/she wish to be reappointed. She agrees that the incumbent
should not be made to go through the application process again.
Board members concurred with Mrs. Thomas and agreed to omit Item #11 from
the policy.
By the above shown vote, the Board adopted the following Boards and
Commissions Appointment Policy:
ALBEMARLE COUNTY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS
POLICY FOR BOARDS AND COMMISSIONS
A. CREATION OF NEW BOARDS AND COI~4ISSIONS
1. On an annual basis the list of active boards and commis-
sions will be purged of all bodies not required by Federal, State,
County or other regulations, which have not met at least once during
the prior twelve-month period.
2. Whenever possible and appropriate, the functions and
activities of boards and commissions will be combined rather than
encouraging the creation of new bodies.
3. Ail newly created county-wide boards and commissions
which will have the power to impact the health, safety and welfare
of all the residents of~the County, will be comprised of represen-
tatives from each of the magisterial districts. These representa-
tives will be appointed by the members of the Board of Supervisors
following the same appointment procedure in Section B for other
magisterial appointments.
4. All newly created boards and commissions which include
members selected on an at-large basis will orient the terms of
appointment of these representatives around an April I/November 1
appointment advertising schedule, with all appointments being made,
if possible, within ninety days of the aforementioned dates.
5. Any newly created task force or ad hoc committee which is
intended to serve for a limited time period, may be comprised of
magisterial or at-large members at the discretion of the Board of
Supervisors. The appointment process shall follow that adopted in
Section B for other magisterial and/or at-large positions.
6. Any newly created board or commission which is comprised
of members selected at-large and, for reasons of emergency or
expediency, cannot comply with the April I/November 1 appointment
advertising schedule, will be considered a special committee or task
force. Members of this body will be selected by the Board of
Supervisors according to the appointment procedure in Section B for
other at-large appointments.
B. APPOINTMENTS TO BOARDS AND COI~4ISSIONS
1. Ail appointments to boards and commissions based upon
magisterial district boundaries will be made by the members of the
Board of Supervisors. All magisterial positions will be advertised.
At the discretion of the supervisor of that district, selected
applicants may be interviewed for the position.
2. Ail appointments to boards and commissions will be
advertised en masse twice yearly on April 1 and November 1, depend-
ing upon the appointment's date of expiration.
3. On April 1, on November 1, and fifteen days after the
aforementioned dates, a notice will be published in the local
newspapers which will outline the boards and commissions having
appointment positions available. Interested citizens will be
provided upon request with a brief description of the duties and
functions of each board, length of term of the appointment,
frequency of meetings, and qualifications necessary to fill the
position. An explanation of the appointment process for both
magisterial and at-large appointments will also be sent to all
applicants.
4. Ail interested parties will have thirty days from the
date of the first notice to fill out and return to the Clerk of the
January 5, 1994 (Regular Day Meeting)
(Page 5)
000303
Board of Supervisors a detailed application with the understanding
that such an application may be released to the public if so
requested.
5. Once the deadline for taking applications is past, the
Clerk will distribute the applications received to the members of
the Board of Supervisors for their review. For magisterial appoint-
ments, the Clerk will forward the applications to the supervisor of
that district. After a two-week deliberation period, the Board, or
the supervisor in the case of magisterial applications, will notify
the Clerk to set up interviews with
selected applicants.
6. From the pool of qualified candidates, the Board of
Supervisors may select applicants to interview for the vacant
positions. For magisterial appointments, the decision to interview
selected candidates will be determined by the supervisor of that
district.
7. The members of the Board of Supervisors will begin the
interview process with applicants for appointments with the earliest
effective dates.
8. Selected applicants will be interviewed within forty-
five days of the close of the application period and all appoint-
ments will be made no later than sixty days after the application
deadline.
9. For purposes of economy as well as to insure the consis-
tent operation of the boards and commissions, if a vacancy occurs in
the middle of a one-year appointment or if less than one year
remains in the term after the next scheduled appointment advertising
date (April i/November 1), then the Board of Supervisors will select
the replacement to the board or commission without further adver-
tisement.
10. If a vacancy occurs in a two-, three-, four- or five-
year appointment and more than one year remains in the term of
appointment after the next scheduled advertisement period, then the
vacated position will be advertised and filled during the next
advertising period.
11. If a member of a board or commission does not partici-
pate in at least fifty percent of the board or commission meetings,
then, the chairman of the body may request the Board of Supervisors
to terminate the appointment and refill it during the next scheduled
advertising period.

missions will be advertised based on the following time schedule:

have a limited scope and are close to being adhoc. She suggested that this

Agenda Item No. 14a. Transportation Matters: Discussion: Route 649 at
the Airport.
Mr. Tucker referred to a letter dated December 13, 1993 (copy on file in
the Clerk's office), sent to the Board from Mr. Dan Roosevelt, Resident Highway
Engineer. In his letter Mr. Roosevelt states that for many years the intersec-
January 5, 1994 (Regular Day Meeting)
(Page 9)
000;307
tion of Routes 606 and 649 at the airport has been a location of concern to the
Highway Department, the Board, the airport and the citizens of Ablemarle County.
The unusual configuration of the intersection has long caused confusion to motor-
ists using it. Mr. Roosevelt recommended, and it was concurred to by the Airport
Authority, to change the configuration of the intersection. Mr. Roosevelt has
provided a sketch which outlines the proposal. Funds are available in the Secon-
dary Road Fund to accomplish this work. The cost is approximately $60,000. Mr.
Tucker noted that the Airport Authority voted to show its support by providing
a $10,000 contribution to the project. The actual cost to the Secondary Road
Fund would be $50,000.
Mr. Roosevelt said this is the first time he has come before this Board
recommending that funds currently in the Six Year Plan be redirected to an
improvement. There have been extended conversations about the safety and
configuration of this intersection. After some study by the traffic engineer,
the Department developed this proposal to improve the traffic safety of the
intersection. He does not believe the improvements would increase congestion at
the intersection. The cost is $60,000 and he recommends that the Board transfer
money from a current allocation to this project. Hopefully the intersection can
be rebuilt in the spring.
In his letter to the Board, he indicated that there was already $400,000
allocated to proposed improvements on Route 708 and Route 678. At a previous
meeting, the Board adopted resolutions recommending that both of those projects
be dropped from the development plan. The Commonwealth Transportation Board has
acted to defer the projects as requested by the Board. The $400,000 that was
allocated to the projects is available for redistribution. Normally he would
redistribute the funds to projects already in the Six Year Plan. He is now
requesting the Board adopt a resolution supporting the reconfiguration of this
intersection and the transfer of $60,000 from the Route 708 project to a budget
line item to fund this project.
Mrs. Thomas asked why it is safer to remove the slip ramps. Mr. Roosevelt
said there are two problems at this intersection. One problem is the slip ramp.
Traffic headed north on Route 606 often consider that as a straight through
movement and comes into conflict with traffic heading towards Earlysville which
actually has the right-of-way. The second major problem is when traffic exits
the airport and approaches the intersection where the two slip ramps intersect
with Route 649, the driver literally has to look 270 degrees to see whether it
is safe to proceed. There may not be an overwhelming number of reported acci-
dents at that location, but there are an overwhelming number of incidences that
occur. This improvement should take care of the problems. Mr. Roosevelt said
the improvements would require traffic headed from Route 29 to Earlysville to
come to the intersection, stop and then turn left. Traffic coming from Earlys-
ville would have to make a little sharper righthand turn in order to get out to
Route 29. He does not feel the added left turn and right turn lanes would
increase congestion at the intersection.
Motion, was then offered by Mr. Bowerman, seconded by Mrs. Humphris, to
adopt the following resolution:
RESOLUTION
WHEREAS, the Virginia Department of Transportation undertook
a study of the intersection of Routes 606 and 649 at the
Charlottesville/Albemarle Airport due to its unusual configuration;
and
WHEREAS, the Virginia Department of Transportation has
determined that relatively inexpensive improvements can be made
which would improve the traffic safety of the intersection. The
improvements would remove the "slip ramps" which currently carry
traffic from Route 649 to Route 606, both north and south, and
replace them with a typical "T" intersection, as outlined on the
attached sketch (on file);
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, by the Board of Supervisors of
Albemarle County, Virginia, that the Board does hereby endorse the
project and implementation plan as proposed by the Virginia Depart-
ment of Transportation. The Board also authorizes the transfer of
$60,000 from Secondary Improvement Fund to accomplish this work, as
requested by the Department.
Roll was called and the motion carried by the following recorded vote:
AYES:
NAYS:
Mr. Bowerman, Mrs. Humphris, Messrs. Marshall, Martin, Perkins and Mrs.
Thomas.
None.
Agenda Item No. 14b. Discussion: Routes 760/712.
Mr. Tucker referred to a letter dated December 13, 1993 (copy on file in
the Clerk's office), from Mr. Roosvevelt concerning Routes 760 and 712. He wrote
Mr. Roosevelt, at the request of the Board in July, 1993, asking him to review
Route 760 between Routes 710 and 712 to determine if some minor improvements
could be made which would improve the sight distance and surface of this road.
January 5, 1994 (Regular Day Meeting)
(Page 10)
000308
This request came as a result of concerns expressed by local citizens as a part
of a rezoning request before the Board.
Mr. Roosevelt said it was his understanding that the Board was looking for
improvements similar to what was done on Route 769; improvements to the drainage
so that the surface would not be rutted and washboarded as often as it is now and
some improvements to the sight distance so that traffic could move at the speed
it moves now and safely negotiate the curves. He looked at four locations for
sight distance improvements and locations where the ditches could be improved to
keep water away from the surface and improve the riding quality of the surface.
He has provided six different estimates for the Board to consider, along with the
overall cost, so the Board can decide whether it wants to do any or all of these
improvements.
Mr. Roosevelt said in the case of Route 769, two citizens came forward and
requested this review and indicated their willingness to assist his office in
obtaining the easements or additional right-of-way needed to make the improve-
ments. The Department will need permission to grade on private property in order
to make any of these improvements. He thinks this process would be more effec-
tive if there was someone from the community willing to act as a liaison. He
then requested that if the Board decides to allocate some money to this project,
it do so with the understanding that someone from the community will participate
in obtaining the easements.
Mrs. Thomas said this issue was discussed before she became a Board member
so she has tried to find out as much as she can about the situation. It seems
to her that locations three and four, on the map provided, seem to be the most
dangerous situations. If the locations proposed for improvement were put into
priority order, it is her opinion that the highest priority should go to location
~4, #3, ~2 and lastly ~1. She is not convinced that all these improvements are
needed. She wants to make sure that the situation warrants all four improvements
before moving forward.
Mr. Perkins asked where the funds would come from to fund these improve-
ments. Mr. Roosevelt said if the Board wants to pursue these improvements, he
would ask that the funds be transferred from the Route 708 project. Regardless
of whether the funds are transferred to this project or to some other project,
he would not leave the money in the Route 708 project doing nothing. He should
already be transferring the money from Route 708 to some on-going project. If
at some time in the future the Board decides it wants to resurrect the Route 708
project, the project could be put back into the Six Year Plan.
Mr. Tucker noted that improvements at locations #3 and #4 and the ditches
total $27,400.
Mr. Roosevelt said he does not think he needs dedicated right-of-way at any
of these locations; he thinks the work can be done within the 30-foot right-of-
way, but he would need permission from the adjacent property owners to grade.
He can do this work with a letter of agreement from the property owners. (Mr.
Martin left the meeting at 2:48 p.m.)
Mrs. Thomas said she does not know what really needs to be done and she
feels that the citizens in the area need to have some input. Mr. Roosevelt said
he has made no contact with the neighborhood other than to talk with Mr. Will
Riley.
Mr. Perkins asked if there has been any effort by the citizens to get the
necessary right-of-way to pave the road. Mr. Roosevelt responded "no", not for
Route 760. His office attempted to get the right-of-way on Route 712, eight or
nine years ago, but the effort was unsuccessful and the project was dropped from
the Six Year Plan. (Mr. Martin returned to the meeting at 2:50 p.m.)
Mr. Marshall suggested deferring the item for 30 days to see if there is
support for moving forward. Mrs. Thomas said she will meet with the residents
to see if she can get some neighborhood representation to work with the Highway
Department.
Motion was then offered by Mrs. Thomas, seconded by Mr. Martin, to defer
further discussion on this item until February 2, 1994. Roll was called and the
motion carried by the following recorded vote:
AYES:
NAYS:
Mr. Bowerman, Mrs. Humphris, Messrs. Marshall, Martin, Perkins and Mrs.
Thomas.
None.
Agenda Item No. 14c. Other Transportation Matters.
Mr. Roosevelt responded to a request from Mr. Martin concerning the speed
limit on Route 795. He indicated that the section of Route 795, from Route 53
down to the south of Route 627, is supposed to be posted at 35 mph. The speed
limit signs have all disappeared. He has directed his sign foreman to replace
the signs. A sign will be installed approximately every mile or so along the
stretch of road.
Mr. Roosevelt responded to a request from Mr. Perkins concerning how the
Department determines priorities for guardrail. He reported that the Traffic
January 5, 1994 (Regular Day Meeting)
(Page 11)
000309
Engineer's office has a fund which is used for installing guardrail at various
locations in the Culpeper District. Using some formula, the Traffic Office
attempts to spread that money over the nine counties in the District. Albemarle
County gets a certain share of this guardrail money. The priorities set by the
Traffic Office cover locations along Route 29 and Route 250 that meet the
criteria, but recommendations for locations along other routes can be considered.
Although he thinks a consolidated list from the Board is preferable, he is
willing to accept a list of roads from individual Board members for consideration
by the Department for guardrail. He will see that the roads get considered
before the next guardrail schedule is prepared which normally occurs in the Fall.
This is for primary roads.
Mr. Roosevelt said he reviews requests for guardrail along secondary roads
and if Board members have requests, he will provide them with the cost. He added
that the money for guardrails along secondary roads would come out of the
Secondary Roads Budget.
Mr. Roosevelt responded to a request from Mr. Perkins concerning the curve
on Route 810 and the possibility of using rumble strips. In discussions with the
District Traffic Engineer, he found that rumble strips are located in the state
in Northern Virginia only and are being used on an experimental basis. The
Department does not want to install any more strips strictly for speed control.
He did ask the Traffic Engineer to look at the curve. It was suggested that the
night arrows currently there that direct people around the curve be changed to
a more modern chevron-type arrow. He will also check into extending the speed
limit along Route 810 to a point north of the curve.
Mr. Bowerman said he thinks it is time that the Highway Department consider
installing a traffic signal at the intersection of Hillsdale Drive and Rio Road
due to increased traffic related to the improvements on Route 29 North. The
speed along Rio Road is posted at 40 mph but most traffic goes 45 to 50 mph. It
is difficult to cross Rio Road from either Hillsdale Road or Old Brook Road or
to even get out of those intersections, and people are taking chances. He is
convinced the traffic warrants will be there as soon as all traffic on Route 29
uses the northbound lane. He thinks a traffic signal should be done sooner
rather than later.
Mr. Roosevelt agreed and said he feels the same about two other intersec-
tions; one is the Greenbrier Drive/Rio Road and the other is the Greenbrier
Drive/Commonwealth Drive intersection. He has talked to the Traffic Engineer who
is studying all three intersections and trying to make some estimate of what the
traffic volumes will be when Route 29 is under full construction to see if there
can be some justification for traffic signals, and anticipating that once Route
29 is complete the traffic volumes at these intersections will remain at the
relatively high level to still justify the signals. He will be in Culpeper at
the District Office later this week and will talk to him about these situationa.
The Board needs to realize that all three of these intersections are secondary
and the money to pay for these signals would come out of the Secondary Road
Improvement Fund. He had planned as part of the Six Year Plan process to
recommend the Board put some money into the plan designated for traffic signal
improvements. He will provide the Board with an update after his meeting in
Culpeper.
Mr. Marshall said he has received several telephone calls about buses
stopping on the mountain between Buck Island Creek and Spring Hill Baptist Church
before the Fluvanna County line. He asked Mr. Roosevelt to look into installing
some "bus stop" signs in this area.
At 3:05 p.m., the Board recessed for the joint meeting with the School
Board. The Board reconvened in Room $5/6 at 3:10 p.m.
Agenda Item No. 19.
School Board.
Meeting Room 5/6
3:00 P.M. Joint Meeting with
SCHOOL BOARD MEMBERS PRESENT: Messrs. William W. Finley, George C.
Landrith, III, Michael J. Marshall, Mrs. Patricia L. Moore, Mrs. Karen L. Powell.
OFFICERS PRESENT: Dr. Robert W. Paskel, Superintendent, and Dr. Carole A.
Hastings, Assistant Superintendent.
Item 19a. Long-Range Enrollment Projections.
Dr. Hastings presented an overview which outlined the projection methodo-
logy used by the Center for Public Service (CPS) and the methodology used by the
County. The presentation included projection comparisons, reasons for diffe-
rences in the two projections, high school projections, unknown factors and the
implications. The presentation also included how the revised projections were
achieved and the implications. She added that the staff was pleased to work with
Dr. Mike Spar. Dr. Spar is responsible for the projections provided by CPS. Dr.
Spar was cooperative in working with the Long Range Planning Committee in terms
of meshing the projections for CPS and the school system.
January 5, 1994 (Resular Day Meetins) 0003~0
(Page 12)
At the end of her presentation, Dr. Hastings introduced the following
members of the Long Range Planning Committee: Richard E. Huff, II, Deputy County
Executive; Willie Smith, Director of Transportation; Tex Weaver, Information
Resource Planner; L. A. Reaser, Director of Building Services; V. Wayne Cilimber,
Director of Planning and Community Development, and herself.
Mr. Tucker said if the two Boards accept the projections from the Long
Range Committee, the next step would be to address the implications and come back
to the Boards with recommendations. Dr. Hastings said that is correct.
Mrs. Moore said she does not see information on proposed developments in
the report. Mr. Cilimberg said he thinks it is important to note that projec-
tions for the future are based on history. The same development growth projected
during the last three to ten years is projected for the next ten years. The same
trends in growth are projected to continue.
Mrs. Thomas asked what caused the projections to be higher in every other
year in 1993 as compared to the 1992 projections. Dr. Hastings said the 1993
projections reflect actual enrollment. The same methodology was used, but actual
live birth data was available.
Mr. Finley said in the minutes of the Long Range Planning Committee for
November 29, it stated that Tracy Holt would develop a trend for kindergarten
enrollment and and incportate a reduced figure into the 1994-95 projections. He
asked if that had been done. Dr. Hastings replied, "yes". The revised enroll-
ment figures that the Boards are looking at now was reduced by approximately
eight percent.
Mrs. Moore asked if the projections included children who are filtering
back into the public schools from private schools. Dr. Hastings said a survey
was sent to all the private schools in the area and about 50 percent of the
schools responded. The results did not show anything abnormal. Unless parents
volunteered the information, there is no way to get information on why the child
is not in public school or when the child may reenter the school system.
Mr. M. Marshall said he has been on the School Board for two years and he
cannot, with confidence, remember any single number predicting the future that
turned out to be accurate. He believes that everytime the numbers are recon-
figured, they will be different.
Dr. Hastings said unless there is disagreement among the Boards as to the
Committee looking at a more conservative approach to enrollment growth, next week
the Committee will start looking at whether elementary redistricting for 1994 is
necessary and, secondly, the impact on the Capital Improvements Program. The
Committee will then revise its recommendations based on these new enrollment
projections.
Mrs. Powell asked why it is such a problem to get live birth data. Dr.
Spar said it takes the state awhile to process the birth data primarily because
it has to wait for other states in which Virginia residents give birth to send
that information back to Virginia. Generally speaking it takes about a year,
after the end of the calendar year, for all of that information to get back to
the state to be processed.
Mrs. Thomas said she was impressed that the figures are as close as they
are.
Mr. Bowerman asked how difficult it would be to go to the two major
hospitals and get birth data. Dr. Hastings said that is confidential informa-
tion; hospital personnel cannot just look at their data base and give out
information on how many residents in the County had children.
Dr. Hastings concluded by saying that the Long Range Planning Committee
will be meeting next week and coming back to the School Board in February with
a revision on the Long Range Plan.
Item 19b. Other Matters not Listed on the Agenda.
Mrs. Thomas introduced Mr. Russell Madison Cummings, Jr., her recommenda-
tion for appointment to the School Board.
Mr. Tucker introduced Mr. Larry Davis, the newly employed County Attorney.
(At 4:15 p.m., the joint meeting of the Board of Supervisors and School
Board was adjourned. The Board then reconvened in Room #7 and continued with its
regular meeting. Mr. St. John did not return to the meeting.)
Agenda Item No. 15. Report: Accessory Apartments.
Mr. Ron Keeler, Chief of Planning, said the Board last reviewed accessory
apartments in October, 1993. At that time, Mr. Bain suggested the staff look at
subdivisions in the County to determine which developments already had deed
restrictions that would effectively prohibit the use of accessory apartments.
That information is provided in the staff report to the Board. Comments have
January 5, 1994 (Regular Day Meeting) 0008~[.1
(Page 13)
also been provided by the Housing Coordinator. In addition, staff was asked to
summarize the pros and cons of accessory apartments, which has been provided.
Mr. Keeler said the County Attorney retained a title company to evaluate
the declarations and covenants in approximately 440 subdivisions and the results
are depicted on a map provided to the Board for information. Basically about
one-half of the lots in subdivisions are restricted against accessory apartments.
Approximately two-thirds of the lots in urban areas are restricted. Approxi-
mately 80 percent of dwellings available to accessory apartments are situated in
the rural areas. The Housing Coordinator has stated that permitting accessory
apartments can increase the supply of affordable housing, although the number of
units produced is generally limited. In addition, accessory apartments should
be viewed as one minor, but valuable, component of a comprehensive approach to
developing affordable housing options.
Mrs. Thomas asked if staff would discuss the pros and cons of waiting and
including this in the general discussion of the Comprehensive Plan. When she was
campaigning for the Board, this was an issue that came up with some frequency,
and she was sympathic partly because her husband's parents have lived with them
for three years. She does not have an accessory apartment because she does not
have a separate kitchen. She asked if there are applications for accessory
apartments waiting to be processed. Mr. Keeler said there are no applications
waiting, but there are people who would like to do this.
Mrs. Humphris said she was going to suggest that the Board follow staff's
recommendation to consider this issue during review of the Comprehensive Plan.
Mr. Martin said he is willing to move forward on this issue. The Planning
Commission discussed at length whether to proceed with accessory apartments as
a separate item or discuss it with the review of the Comprehensive Plan. The
Commission agreed to move forward, outside of the Plan, because this is an
important part of the housing strategy. He tends to agree with that assessment.
Mr. Keeler said the Commission is prepared to proceed to public hearing to
amend the Zoning Ordinance. An analysis of all the issues has been done and the
Commission felt this was worth proceeding with.
Mrs. Humphris said she thinks the public needs an opportunity to have a
broader understanding of all the issues involved. She does not believe that
going to public hearing now under these circumstances would give the public the
opportunity for input that it would have if this issue was reviewed during the
Comprehensive Plan review process. She thinks that attention needs to be paid
to the comment that accessory apartments should be viewed as one minor, but
valuable, component of a comprehensive approach to developing affordable housing.
She thinks the Board needs to comprehensively involve the public because there
are so many areas this is going to affect in terms of growth in the County. This
also obviously will have a tremendous affect on the rural areas.
Mr. Martin disagreed. He thinks more attention would be afforded accessory
apartments if it was taken as an individual issue rather than including it in the
overall review of the Plan. It seems to him that isolating this issue would
bring it more to the spotlight as opposed to it being one component of many
issues. He thinks more people would know what it is about.
Mr. Bowerman agreed that doing this by itself would focus more on the issue
of affordable housing.
Mr. Martin then offered motion, seconded by Mrs. Thomas, to direct the
Planning Commission to proceed to public hearing to amend the Zoning Ordinance
to allow an apartment unit as accesory to a single-family dwelling. Roll was
called and the motion carried by the following recorded vote:
AYES: Mr. Bowerman, Mrs. Humphris, Messrs. Marshall, Martin, Perkins and Mrs.
Thomas.
NAYS: None.

NAYS: None.
Mrs. Humphris said she was fortunate to receive many applications for the
Planning Commission from the Jack Jouett District. She interviewed David
Kalergis, Greg Kamptner, and Peter Stark. Mr. Dennis Rooker withdrew his
application. She made a carefully thoughtout decision to reappoint Jacquelyn
Huckle to the Planning Commission. In her opinion, Ms. Huckle has served
outstandingly on the Commission. Ms. Huckle brings about 50 years to this
community of institutional memory on all the issues that the Commission deals
with. She thinks it is wonderful that Ms. Huckle is willing to give four more
years of her time and expertise to the Commission.
Mrs. Humphris then offered motion to reappoint Ms. Jacquelyn Huckle as the
Jack Jouett District representative on the Planning Commission, with said term
to expire on December 31, 1997. Mr. Marshall seconded the motion.
Mr. Martin offered motion, seconded by Mrs. Humphris, to appoint Mr. W.
Thomas Leback as the University of Virginia non-voting representative on the
Planning Commission, with said term to expire on December 31, 1994.
Roll was called and the motions carried by the following recorded vote:
AYES: Mr. Bowerman, Mrs. Humphris, Messrs. Marshall, Martin, Perkins and Mrs.
Thomas.
NAYS: None.
Mr. Bowerman mentioned that he has interviewed four people for appointment
to the Planning Commission. He has not decided among the four whom to appoint.
He will hold off on his nomination until after the Board has interviewed the at-
large applicants.
Mrs. Thomas said she intends to hold off her nomination until the Board has
interviewed the at-large applicants.
Mrs. Thomas offered motion, seconded by Mr. Bowerman, to appoint Mr. Andrew
B. Middleditch to the Public Recreational Facilities Authority, with said term
to expire on December 31, 1996. Roll was called and the motion carried by the
following recorded vote:
AYES: Mr. Bowerman, Mrs. Humphris, Messrs. Marshall, Martin, Perkins and Mrs.
Thomas.
NAYS: None.
Mrs. Thomas said she interviewed six applicants for the School Board. The
group of candidates were outstanding. Mrs. Thomas then offered motion to appoint
Mr. Russell Madison Cummings, Jr., as the Samuel Miller District representative
on the School Board, with said term to expire on December 31, 1997. Mr. Martin
seconded the motion.
Mrs. Humphris said she had only one application for consideration to the
School Board from the Jack Jouett District. She feels that Mrs. Karen Powell has
been a wonderful representative on the School Board. Mrs. Powell pays great
attention to detail and spends a lot of time doing the job. She thinks Mrs.
Powell's experience will provide continuity on the School Board. Mrs. Humphris
then offered motion to reappoint Mrs. Karen L. Powell as the Jack Jouett District
representative on the School Board, with said term to expire on December 31,
