Neher 401 McIntire Road Charlottesville, VA 22901 Dear Mrs. Neher, I am writing this letter to your attention as per the instructions of Robert Tucker Executive Officer for the County of Albemarle. For the past two months I have had numerous contact with the County Health Department concerning the Galerie Restaurant located at the junction of Route 240 and Route 250 near Crozet. It is shown on Tax Map 57, Parcel 31A (see attached) zoned by the County of Albemarle as C-I. This property has been a restaurant since the 60's. It was recently sold to a new user by our firm. In an effort to comply with new county regulations we made an effort to uncover the system at this current location and have found the following. The original septic system was placed approximately 120 feet from the existing building in 1960. This system was washed away in a flood in 1969. It was replaced by a cistern system and over the years 20 feet of fill has been placed on the site over the existing system. The current cistern system is a big. round concrete box with a sluge pipe draining into a 20 X 20 gravel pit. The overflow pipe drains into Mechum River. The Health Department and owner both agree that this is a very unfortunate situation and the County Health has recommended a number of solutions in their attached from Jeff McDaniel dated December 9, 1991. The County is unwilling to allow the property to use a new septic system for a variety of reasons. Including the following: 1. The size of the site will not accommodate a septic system and a deserve system with a suitable distance from the river and existing well. 2. The site has over the years undergone approximately 60% fill to build up a parking area. No system will be allowed in the fill area. 500 WESTFIELD RD.•CHARLOTTESVILLE,VA 22901 •(804)973-5393•FAX NO.:(804)974-1928 POST OFFICE BOX 65•LOVINGSTON,VA 22949•(804)263-5088 OR(804)263-5980 1ll.( ettieNe !r ? rdoii ,.E>EA LTORS PaeSE74171NG CENTRAL VIRGINIA SINCE 1948 The County Health Department recommend the following which we feel will not work. 1. Sewage Treatment Facility: This is a costly project that would eventually require water to run directly into Mechum River which flows directly to the resvoir. 2. The adjoining property owners to lease system: All sites with gravity flow are'located within the 100 year flood plan. It may be possible to pump sewage across 240 under the railroad crossing to use a site from a Mr. Clayton. He has no willingness to be remotely reasonable on the matter and it would cost thousands to even get a line of approximately feet to his property. 3. Pump and haul method is also an option, but according to both county and state health officials this matter would be considered on a short term approval process. 4. They also recommend allowing this building to hook up to the Crozet/Charlottesville Sewer Interceptor. Many people we have spoken to at the County feel this is our only real option. Our actual request is that you expand the Albemarle County Service Authority Jurisdictional Authority to include Tax Map 57, Parcel 31 A known as the Galerie Restaurant. While we realize that this is an unusual request we feel it is in everyone's best interest that this project be allowed access to this service line as all other options have been exhausted. Thank you for your prompt consideration concerning this matter. Please let me know if I can answer any additional questions concerning this project. Sincerely, //741 4-� . •ent.
