RE: Sewer Tie-In on Rt. 250 West for Parcel 23B
Javor Parcel
Dear Mr. Fisher:
The Planning Department, upon my request, sent me the
Service Area Map regarding properties of Kirtley, Javor and Sieg
on Route 250 West (copy attached) . The portions of these
properties outside of the South Fork Rivanna Watershed are shown
in the darkened area on the map. This is the same drawing
displayed at the April 11 , 1984 Board of Supervisors Meeting and
discussed with Mr. Elrod, the County Engineer.
Offhand, it would seem inequitable that the parcels on
either side of 23B, (my 5 acre tract) the Kirtley and Sieg
parcels should have that much more of their land area outside of
the Rivanna Watershed than my inbetween parcel. This came about,
evidently, as the result of previous site grading on the Kirtley
and Sieg properties' thereby giving them a broader area of water
run-off away from the Rivanna Watershed.
My observation is that should the jurisdictional line
as shown on the enclosed sheet be adopted by The Board of
Supervisors at the May 19th public hearing, it would prove
valueless to me as it would encompass only the 75 ' scenic
easement set-back which I cannot use for building purposes.
I 've met with Mr. Elrod this past week to review the
site plan that I submitted to The Planning Commission on March
26 , 1984 , but deferred it pending the outcome of The Board of
Supervisors action on the amendment to The Rivanna Jurisdictional
Line for the three parcels referred to above.

It appears possible that with some minor engineering
modification in the grading of my building site, the water
run-off could be directed away from the Rivanna Watershed. It
would then be possible to tie into the Crozet Interceptor Sewer
Line provided the Board of Supervisors amended the jurisdictional
line. The engineering studies which are being prepared will show
that a gravity flow line to manhole #27 can be reached only
50 yards away on the South side of 250 West from the center of my
property line.
The following facts further make it essential that
public sewer be made available for this 5 acre site:
1) I have a valuable asset in this parcel which I have
not been able to utilize for ten years . Taxes have been paid of
approximately $1 ,000 per year.
2) The tax base for the County would increase
substantially if the property were utilized to its full
potential. I am presently paying County taxes of close to
$10 ,000 annually on other commercial property I own.
3) The 5 acre parcel is zoned Light Industrial and it
is not feasable to install septic tanks and drain fields as The
Board of Supervisors acknowledged when they approved my previous
site plan with the condition that public sewer be made available
to all units. This one condition shut me down as the only public
sewer was 2 ,000 ' East on Route 250 .
4) Now that the sewer line is a reasonable 50 yards
distance I would be in position to meet this condition.
5) I do not believe The Board of Supervisors would be
setting a precedent by amending the jurisdictional line as the
three parcels under consideration are unique in that they are
zoned Light Industrial or M-1 and encompass a minute area along
the route of the sewer line to Crozet.

In closing I should like to share some observations on
The Crozet Sewer Interceptor. It is my understanding that the
line is funded 75% by EPA and the other 25% by a public issue of
Revenue Bonds . It would seem that the nature and source of the
funding should give every tax paying citizen - of which I am one
who kicks in a hefty share to the IRS - the benefit of tying into
a sewer line that runs right past his front door.
I sincerely hope that The Board of Supervisors in their
good judgement and sound reasoning will arrive at a decision at
their May 9th meeting that will in all fairness permit me to do
something with my property which in the long run would be
beneficial to the County and Community.
Sincerely,
Henry J. Javor
Enclosure
