Messrs. Tucker, Foley, Davis, Cilimberg, Benish;
Ms. Ragsdale REVIEWED BY:
LEGAL REVIEW: YES
BACKGROUND:
The applicant is requesting ACSA Jurisdictional Area designation for water and sewer service to an approximately 2-acre parcel
located on the west side of Buck Road (Route 789), near its intersection with St. George Avenue. (See Attachment A) The
property is located within the designated Crozet Development Area, in the Whitehall Magisterial District. The parcel is currently
designated for "water only to existing structures." The applicant is requesting water and sewer service for an addition to be
constructed on an existing house. The existing septic system located on site would not be adequate to serve the expanded
structure. The applicant prefers to connect to public sewer, and that connection would be consistent with County utility policies.
The properties adjacent to the north and south of this parcel are similarly designated (water only to existing structures). The
properties across Buck Road to the east are designated for water and sewer service. The Board reviewed this request at its
December 7th Board meeting, and directed that the request be scheduled for public hearing.
STRATEGIC PLAN:
2.2 Protect and/or preserve the County's natural resources
DISCUSSION:
The subject property is located in the Crozet Development Area. The water supply for Crozet is provided by the Beaver Creek
Reservoir. Sewer service is provided by the Moore's Creek Treatment Plant via the Crozet Interceptor.
The Comprehensive Plan provides the following concerning the provision of water and sewer service to the Development Areas:
"General Principle: Urban Areas, Communities, and Villages are to be served by public water and sewer(p. 114)."
"Provide water and sewer service only to areas within the ACSA Ju isdictional Areas (p. 130)."
"Follow the boundaries of the designated Development Areas in delineating Jurisdictional Areas (p.130)."
The Comprehensive Plan recommends serving the Development Areas with public water and sewer service. This parcel is
located within the Crozet Development Area, so designating it as part of the ACSA Jurisdictional Area for public water and sewer
service would align with County policy.
BUDGET IMPACT:
The property owner will bear the costs for water and sewer hook-up.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
As a general policy, staff has advised that public utility capacity should be reserved to support development of designated
Development Areas. Since this property is located within a designated Development Area, the provision of both water and sewer
service to the property would be. consistent with the Comprehensive Plan public utility policy. Therefore, staff recommends the
