All 8 houses have a frost free hydrant at the house in the yard. Each house has an outside toilet . These houses have not had any work done on them since 1967 . I took these houses over in December 1987 . I have repaired all 8 houses, they were about to fall down. I replaced porches, steps , repaired all leaks in roofs and even replaced roofs on 4 porches . I put a new floor in the kitchen on Lot 6 and painted the inside of the entire house on Lots 1, 2 , and 4 . I was hoping you would let these people live in these houses without bathrooms right away. The outside toilets can be pumped just like a septic tank when full . If the toilets get in bad shape a new hole can be dug and the toilet replaced. If you want to stipulate that the outside toilets be pumped every four or five years , I would not object to that . I recently put a new toilet on Lot 7 , the one they were using was 22 years old. I want to put water and a sink in each house. This could be done by running a drainline out of the back of the house about 40 or 50 feet from the house - let it run off down through a massive pile of soapstone rock which is millions of tons . Considering what they are doing now - washing dishes, clothes, taking baths and throwing water out of the back door in the yard - this would be much safer and healthier. - .- You have to consider what these eight families would do without these houses . They would probably be homeless . I have known all these people all there lives . Most of them worked for Alberene Stone Co. where I worked until it was sold. I want these people to eventually own these houses . Four or five already told me they would like to own the house they live in - ownership gives pride to most people, they will fix them up and make these homes look presentable. I could show you approximately 125 houses which I sold to the employees when I worked for the Stone Co. They took a lot of pride in ownership, and fixed these old houses up, and made fine homes out of them. I am sure there is some solution to the drainfield problem without it being so expensive. • SCHEDULE A Tax Map Parcel 126 , 31 A (part) is presently zoned RA. The proposed 8 lot subdivision lies along Route 800 near the Albemarle-Nelson County line. (See plat previously filed with Zoning Department) . There presently exists a house on each proposed lot of the subdivision. These houses were built by the Old Alberene Stone Company during the 1920 ' s and were rented to employees of this company. These houses did not have water or sewage at the time they were built . Over the years these houses have been occupied by employees , or former employees , of the Old Alberene Soap Stone Company, or its successors , the Georgia Marble Company and/or the New Alberene Stone Company. The present residents for each of the houses are as follows : Lot 8 - Mr. and Mrs . Jack (Jimbo) Eubanks and one son who have lived on the lot for 30 years ; Lot 7 - Mr. Windell Mays who has lived on the lot on and off for over 40 years; Lot 3 - Mr. and Mrs . Linwood Allen who have lived on the property for about 25 years ; Lot 5 - Mr. James Allen who has lived on the lot for 15 years; Lot 4 - Mrs . Angeline Eubanks who has lived on the lot for 4 years with her two children; Lot 3 - Mr. Robert Roberts who has lived on the lot for 12 years ; Lot 2 - Mr. and Mrs . Harvey Tinnell who have lived on the lot for over 3 years with their three children; and Lot 1 - Mr. and Mrs . Charles Wooten who have lived on the lot for 8 years with their children. It is the intention of the applicant to continue to rehabilitate these houses, and then sell them to the present tenants . r • EXHIBIT B The houses on the lots in this proposed subdivision had been in disrepair for a number of years until recently when the applicant, Kenneth V. Carroll , has made substantial improvements to the houses . These improvements include replacing porches and steps which had rotted out in all the houses , repairing roofs that leaked and replacing floors in the houses rented by Mr. Allen and Mr. Tinnell . At the present time the Schuyler Sanitary District (of Nelson County) has brought water to the lots and presently all tenants have frost free outside spigots from which they get their water. It is contemplated that the water will be brought into the houses by the present tenants or the applicant in the near future. Mr. Carroll intends to continue to make repairs , as needed, to the houses , and then sell them to the tenants . He has done this in various other subdivisions in this area of like nature such as Goldmine, Stumptown and Newtown in Nelson County, and the tenants , after becoming homeowners, have continued to improve the houses on the lots . Lots 1 through 6 are not suitable for septic tank absorption fields because of either limited area of suitable soils, soils with very slow permeability, soils with a seasonal high water table, soils with very shallow depths to fractured schist bedrock that is very difficult to auger, or a combination of these limitations according to the report of Steven K. Thomas , Soil Scientist . The applicant requests that the application be approved without any special provision for septic tanks . The houses have been in place for over 60 years, the tenants are in place, these tenants will become homeowners , and at the time they become owners of the property, they may take appropriate action to obtain additional land for drain fields if such action is appropriate.
