MEMORANDUM
TO: Albemarle County Board of Supervisors
FROM: V. Wayne Cilimberg, Director of Planning and /,/ii

DATE: February 8, 1990
RE: Connection to Albemarle County Service Authority
Water Service - Oak Knoll Subdivision - Lot 1
Tax Map 59, Parcel 12F
Mr. Richard P. Cogan is requesting that the Board of Supervisors amend
the Albemarle County Service Authority (ACSA) service area to include
the above-referenced 6.638 acre lot for water service. This property is
situated outside of a designated growth area and therefore, should not be
available to public water or sewer service. However, under circumstance
of demonstrated inadequacy or failure of on-site improvements, public
utilities have been made available. The applicant has cited well yield
difficulties of an adjoining property. However, no comment is offered
as to the adequacy of other lots within the subdivision. Property
adjoining to the west, consisting of fourteen lots, is served by public
water.
The applicant states that a sum of $1,428.32 was paid to the ACSA in
1988 to install a tee and gate valve appurtenances to accommodate future
possible connection to the public water line. While the applicant
acknowledges awareness of the fact that subsequent Board approval would
be necessary to connect to the water line, it does appear that the
County Attorney's office should advise as to any legal aspects of this
expenditure.
;.r
Should the Board of Supervisors choose to approve the applicant's
request, staff would recommend that:
1. The provision of public water be limited to one dwelling unit,
exclusive of guest cottage;
2. No diminishment in acreage or subdivision of the property,
including family division, be allowed.
