Consider holding a public hearing to amend the ACSA Jurisdictional Area to provide water service designation for CONSENT AGENDA: Virginia Department of Transportation (Tax Map 79, ACTION: INFORMATION: Parcel 3A) ATTACHMENTS: Yes STAFF CONTACT(S}: Mssrs. Tucker, Cilimberg, Benish REVIEWED BY: BACKGROUND: The Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) requests amendment of the Albemarle County Service Authority's jurisdictional area in order to provide for water service to their property. This would require access to the existing 16" waterline which crosses the applicant's property and runs along Rt. 250 East. The applicant states that they are experiencing water quality problems (bad taste and corrosiveness), however,their tests have not shown the water to be health threatening. The applicant also states that they lack water for rest room facilities during power outages. (see Attachment A) DISCUSSION: The applicant's property is located outside of the designated Development Area off of Rt. 250 East in Rural Area 2, and is zoned RA,Rural Areas. (see Attachment B) The applicant's property currently is located outside the Albemarle County Service Authority(ACSA)jurisdictional area for"water and sewer"service. (see Attachment C) With the development of Glenmore in the Village of Rivanna, a water line was installed along the Rt. 250 East corridor from the Urban Area to Glenmore. Subsequently, the Stone Robinson School received jurisdictional area designation for water,and a water line was constructed to serve the school from the main line on Rt. 250. Regarding the Village of Rivanna,the Comprehensive Plan states the following recommendation:"Water capacity shall be reserved for a potential new school in the Village until such time as determined that the school is not necessary." Regarding provision of public utilities, the Comprehensive Plan is intentionally specific in objective and strategies as to where and under what circumstances public utilities should be made available. The Comprehensive Plan states: Strategies for Defining Public Water and Sewer Service Areas: • Follow the Boundaries of the designated Development Areas in delineating jurisdictional areas. • Only allow changes in jurisdictional areas outside of designated Development Area boundaries in cases where the property is: (1) adjacent to existing lines; and (2) public health or safety is endangered." The Comprehensive Plan also warns that"such utilities are not to be extended to the Rural Areas as these services can increase development pressures." (p. 146) Public water service to this parcel is not consistent with this intent and could set a precedent for allowing water service to other parcels along this corridor. No information has been provided that indicates that public health or safety are endangered, nor have any steps to solve the poor taste,smell and corrosiveness problems been documented. The ACSA indicates that it can provide the service, and that an onsite pressure reducing valve will be required. No other significant improvements will be required to provide water to the property. (see Attachment D) The Virginia Dept. of Health indicates that as a result of a history of problems with water quality and aesthetics of the drinking water supply,they would be supportive of an extension of water service to serve this site. (see Attachment E) The Board of Supervisors has co red and denied two requests for water o�„r .arvice for nearby parcels along this stretch of 250 East(Booth/Exum(GOCO Oil)and Allen G. Dillard). The Booth/Exum request(TM 79, Parcels 18 and 19) was based on concerns with groundwater contamination. The Dillard request(TM 79, Parcel 4P)was based on a need for fire suppression. The Board has also considered and approved one request for water only service to Clifton,The Country Inn (TM 79, Parcels 23B, 23C, 23F). However, the circumstances for Clifton distinguish it from the VDOT request now under consideration as well as THE Booth/Exum and Dillard requests. The applicant in the Clifton request made well-documented efforts to solve the health and safety issues related to water on their site while working closely with the VA Department of Health and a private well-drilling company. Staff opinion was that Clifton had exhausted all reasonable avenues for addressing water quantity and quality concerns. RECOMMENDATION: This request is not consistent with the strategies of the Comprehensive Plan for the provision of sewer service outside of the designated Development Areas and is not consistent with prior Board decisions in this area regarding the provision of water service. No verification of endangerment to public health and safety has been provided. Based on this information, staff does not recommend approval of this request and, therefore, does not see a necessity for this to proceed to public hearing.

TUCKER COMMISSIONER RESIDENT ENGINEER September 12, 1996 Jurisdictional Water Tap Mr. Wayne Cilimberg Dept. of Planning & Community Development 401 McIntire Road Charlottesville, VA. 22902 Dear Mr. Cilimberg: Attached, please find application for a tap into the water line along Route 250 that passes through our property. Although we have been told that the existing well water is not a health hazard, it poses a problem for corrosiveness and a foul taste. We currently use bottled water for our drinking needs. In addition to above stated problems with the water, we do not have access to any water when the power is off for rest room facilities. If the tap is allowed, we could install our own water line to necessary facilities. We appreciate your consideration of a jurisdictional amendment to make this allowable. Yours truly, 7 / 4. W.

Paine, Senior Planner Albemarle County Dept. of Planning 401 McIntire Road Charlottesville, VA 22902 Dear Claudia: As you have most recently brought to my attention, VDOT has requested that the jurisdictional area for public water service be extended to their Rt. 250 Headquarters so that they may connect to the public water line. Given the past history of their present water supply and problems stemming from its quality and aesthetics as a drinking water supply, this department would support any initiative to extend water service to these headquarters. With that in mind, it might also help address future development in the Hunters Hall Subdivision commercial development in meeting needs for"public"water supplies without drilling more wells in the area. I hope this addresses your request relative to the aforementioned request, however if you have any further questions or need assistance, please do not hesitate to contact me.
