that this section of State Route 768 should be abandoned or discontinued.
Mr. Fisher noted that no one from the City was present regarding this matter, and
suggested deferring discussion on this agenda item until later in the meeting.

Route 743.
Highway Matters:
Discussion of resolution from School Board on
The following resolution adopted by the School Board on April 12, 1982, was presented
to the Board as information pertaining to construction which is to take place on Hydraulic
Road in the near future:
BE IT RESOLVED by the Albemarle County School Board as follows: The
School Board has received a letter dated December 2, 1981, from D. S.
Roosevelt, Resident Engineer, Commonwealth of Virginia, Department of
Highways and Transportation, concerning Highway Project 0743-002-153,C501,
Hydraulic Road, Albemarle County, Virginia, which affects the School Board's
Albemarle High School property. The School Board also has received a copy
of Project 0743-002-153,C-501, Plan Sheets No. 9 (as revised 10/21/80,
11/17/80, 2/9/81, 2/13/81 and 5/12/'81), No. 10 (as revised 10/21/80,
11/17/80, 2/9/81, 2/13/81, 3/4/81, 3/20/81 and 8/12/81), and No. 10-B (as
revised 2/9/81, 2/13/81, 3/4/81, 3/20/81 and 8/12/81), hereafter the "Plans",
which indicate the right-of-way and improvements which will be constructed
on the Albemarle County School Board property. The School Board agrees in
principle to dedicate the right-of-way as shown on the Plans to the Depart-
ment of Highways and Transportation without compensation for land or
damages, provided the Department of Highways and Transportation does the
following:
The Plans indicate replacement parking which will be constructed by
the Highway Department within the current right-of-way of State Route 657
(Lambs Road). The Plans also indicate the triangular area bounded by
existing Lambs Road, relocated Lambs Road, and Hydraulic Road will be
cleared, grubbed and properly seeded. Where possible, any hardwoods
located within the triangular area referred to above will be preserved.
The area between Hydraulic Road and the Albemarle High School parking lot
will be properly landscaped. The area in question is also bounded by the
Hydraulic Road entrance to the school and the relocated intersection of
Lambs Road and Hydraulic Road. The "grass area" between the roadway and
the parking lot will be approximately 14 feet to 16 feet wide and be on a
2-1 slope. This will place the parking lot some 3-5 feet below the roadway
and may present some difficulty in mowing the slope. Therefore, once the
construction project is completed, the Highway Department will plant a
"hedge-type" material in this area, preferably a Hetz Blue Juniper. Once
established, maintenance of the hedge will be the responsibility of the
School Board. Finally, upon completion of the Project, the Highway De-
partment will transfer the triangular parcel shown on the Plans and the
property under existing Lambs Road to the School Board.
Mr. Roosevelt said this resolution is the result of correspondence between the School
Board and the Highway Department. Mr. Roosevelt said rather than a financial settlement
for land taken for the Hydraulic Road improvement project, the School Board preferred to
have the Highway Department restore da. mages incurred during the construction phase; hence
the above resolution.
Mr. George St. John said the Board did not need to take any action on this resolution
at this time. Mr. Roosevelt ~aid a condemnation certificate has been filed so the Highway
Department may legally enter the property, but that actual transfer of the property will
not take place until the project is completed. Mr. St. John said only when the property
is ready to be transferred to the Highway Department will the Board of Supervisors need to
take action.
Agenda Item No. 4d. Highway Matters: Other Matters. Mr. J. Ashley Williams, Acting
County Engineer, was present to report on progress in obtaining easements for the George-
town Road Walkway along with Mr. Jim Nunnally, an independent appraiser, who was employed
at the April 14, meeting to make appraisals. Mr. Nunnally said he has done a preliminary
study of this project area and estimates $8,000 for the easements including damages (i.e.
shrubs etc.). Mr. Nunnally said damages or replacement of shrubs should not be included
in construction costs but rather in purchase of the easement. Mr. Nunnally said if a flat
fee is paid for damages, then the property owner can decide whether he wishes to replace
any landscaping removed for the walkway; if this is included in construction costs, then
the County would replace those shrubs and be liable at a later date should any of those
plants die. Mr. Nunnally said he would charge the County approximately $2,000 for con-
tacting property owners and obtaining easements. Mr. Nunnally said he would try to obtain
signatures on all the easements which are needed, but if no signature is obtained, then'a
certificate of condemnation would have to be~ filed. Mr. Nunnally said the County would
have to obtain the land under State Code Section 15.1-238 since no public hearing has been
held on this project.
Mr. St. Joh~ said there is another method for taking the easement, but it leaves the
opportunity for property owners to contest which would require court action rather than
simply a thirty day waiting period.
Mr. Lindstrom said ~he would like to see the project handled so all property owners
are treated equally, not have some property donated and other land purchased at full
value. Mr.'Nunnally said $10,000 should purchase all of the easements and~pay~his fee.
Mr. Williams stated that a $10,000 fee for purchase of easements would bring the total
project estimate to $57,000.
Motion was then offered by Mr. Lindstrom to authorize Mr. Nunnally to proceed with
contacting property owners along the west side of Georgetown Road to obtain the easements
necessary for construction of the walkway, and that the County Attorney's office draw the
necessary easements. The motion was seconded by Miss Nash and carried by the following
recorded vote:
AYES: Mr. Butler, Mrs. Cooke, Messrs. Fisher, Henley, Lindstrom and Miss Nash.
NAYS: None.

May 12, 1982 (Regular Day Meeting)
Agenda Item No. 4b. Highway Matters: Public Hearing: Pursuant to the Code of
Virginia, Sections 33.1-155 and 33.1-157, notice is hereby given that the Board of Super-
visors of Albemarle County, Virginia, will consider abandoning a portion of State Route
652 in Fieldbrook Subdivision. (Advertised in the Daily Progress on April 28 and May 5,
1982.)
Mr. William S. Roudabush was present, representing Mr. Joseph W. Richmond. Mr.
Roudabush said this two part request was scheduled for public hearing today, but that he
has been informed that no action can be taken at this time due to advertising requirements
as specified in State Code Section 33.1-157.
Mr. Dan Roosevelt of the Highway Department said the portion of road which is only
platted (and not constructed in any way) does not concern the Highway Department; however,
the Highway Department would not like to see the existing section of road abandoned (under
State Code Section 33.1-155) until there is a new section of road constructed to replace
it.
Mr. Roudabush said he would like to see the matter handled in two parts so that the
process can be accomplished as quickly as possible. Miss Lettie E. Neher, Clerk, stated
that due to Section 33.1-157 abandonment of the portion of road which is only platted and
has never been constructed has been advertised for the June 9, 1982, Board meeting in
order to meet the thirty day advertisement requirement stated in that Code section. She
indicated that notices have been placed along the road and at the County Courthouse as
also required in that State Code section. Mr. Roudabush said that the new section of
Route 652 which is being constructed to replace the existing section of Route 652, will
not be completed for quite a long time.
Mr. Fisher suggested that the public hearing be held since a portion of this request
was advertised for this meeting. No one from the public was present wishing to speak
either for or against this petition, and Mr. Fisher declared the public hearing closed.
At the suggestion of Mr. St. John, motion was offered by Mr. Lindstrom, seconded by
Miss Nash, to defer action to the June 9, 1982, meeting of the Board. Roll was called and
the motion carried by the following recorded vote:
AYES:
NAYS:
Mr. Butler, Mrs. Cooke, Messrs. Fisher, Henley, Lindstrom and Miss Nash.
None.
Agenda Item No. 4d. Other Highway Matters: Mrs. Cooke thanked Mr. Roosevelt for
placing signs on Huntington Road as she had requested.
Mr. Henley said there are still quite a few "chuck holes" on the County roads which
needed to be filled, specifically on Route 810.
Mr. Lindstrom asked if the Highway Department had cleaned up the litter problem on
the road near Red Brook Farm. Mr. Roosevelt said it was dirty this morning, but did not
know if this was new litter, or if his crew had never cleaned the original problem. Mr.
Roosevelt said he would follow up on this matter.
Mr. Fisher requested repairs to Edgemont Road which goes up Observatory Mountain
stating that in some spots the pavement is only four feet wide.
Agenda Item No. 4a. Closing of a portion of State Route 768. Mr. Fisher noted that
Mr. Eugene German Director of Parks for the City of Charlottesville was still not present,
so Mr. Fisher recommended this item be deferred until the June 9, 1982, regular day
meeting.
NOT DOCKETED. Mr. Lindsay G. Dorrier, Jr., Albemarle County Commonwealth Attorney,
was present, and introduced two students visiting for Youth in Government Day.
Mr. Fisher requested Board members to change the date of the meeting scheduled
between the Board of Supervisors and members of the Annexation and Revenue Sharing Nego-
tiating Committee, set for May 20, 1982, to May 24 at 2:00 P.M. in the Albemarle County
Office Building.
Mr. Fisher said he also wished to remind the Board about the meeting between the
Board of Supervisors and the Rivanna Water and Sewer Authority regarding the Buck Mountain
Creek Reservoir set for May 13, 1982. Mr. Fisher asked Mr. St. John if the Board should
adjourn to May 13th in order to hold a legal meeting. Mr. St. John said if the Board of
Supervisors will be discussing public business, he would advise adjourning, to that date
Mr. Fisher requested Board members to reserve May 19, 1982, at 5:30 P.M., as a time
for an executive session to discuss legal matters resulting from the upcoming referendum
on annexation and revenue sharing.
Mr. Agnor introduced Pearl Quarles and Kathy Simmons, students visiting for Youth in
Government Day. Mr. Agnor also introduced Miss Ellie Bishop of the Extension Service, who
coordinated the Youth in Government activities.
May 12, 1982 (Regular D'ay Meeting)
Agenda Item No. 4e. Highway Matters: Appeal: Talbotts Gasoline Sales and Automobile
Laundry Site Plan. (Site Plan for Retail Gasoline Sales and Automobile Laundry Facilities,
U.S. Route 29 and Berkmar Drive, prepared by W. S. Roudabush, Inc., dated March 10, 1982
and revised April 9, 1982. Tax Map 61U, Parcels 01-15 and 01-16.)
Mr. Robert W. Tucker, Jr., Director of Planning, was present and stated he has
received a request from Mr. William S. Roubabush to withdraw this site plan request. Mr.
Tucker said that he did not have anything in writing and would therefore recommend deferral
until the June 9, 1982, regular day meeting.
Mr. Roudabush was present and stated that he was representing Mr. Talbott in this
matter. Mr. Roudabush said Mr. Talbott had taken every precaution in planning this
gasoline sales and auto laundry facility on the proposed site. Mr. Roudabush said that in
order to meet the entrance requirements set by the Highway Department, Mr. Talbott. optioned
another adjacent lot which would then share an entrance with an adjoining business. Mr.
Roudabush said Mr. Talbott had agreed to a turn~ng lane across the entire frontage of the
property as well as a number of other smaller concessions in order to develop this site.
Mr. Roudabush said Mr. Talbott felt that this appeal would bring additional canditions,
and since Mr. Talbott was already unhappy having to share an entrance to this site, he has
decided to withdraw the site plan at this time.
Mr. James R. Skove, member of the Albemarle County Planning Commission, who appealed
the approval of this site plan (NOTE: Mr. Skove's letter dated April 21, 1982, addressed
to Mr. Robert W. Tucker, Jr., Director of the Albemarle County Department of Planning, is
on file in the office of the Clerk to the Board of Supervisors.) was present, and said he
had nothing further to add to his letter.
Mr. Fisher asked if this item should be deferred until a formal letter of withdrawal
is received from Mr. Talbott. Mr. St. John advised that since this withdrawal request has
been received from Mr. Roudabush, an authorized representative for Mr. Talbott, at a
public meeting, a written letter is not necessary. Mr. Tucker said that Mr. Talbott had
also requested subdivision of this property and that plat should also be withdrawn at this
time. Mr. Roudabush said he would also request withdrawal of the subdivision plat entitled
"Berkmar, Lots 15A and 16A, Revised Final Plat" which was approved by the Planning Commission
on April 20, 1982. (Tax Map 61U, Parcels 01-15 and 01-16.)
Motion was offered by Mr. Lindstrom to accept the withdrawal of the site plan and
subdivision plat for Talbotts Gasoline Sales and Automobile Laundry, per the request of
Mr. William S. Roudabush, agent for Mr. Talbott. The motion was seconded by Mrs. Cooke
and carried by the following recorded vote:
AYES:
NAYS:
Mr. Butler, Mrs. Cooke, Messrs. Fisher, Henley, Lindstrom and Miss Nash.
None.
Agenda Item No. 5. Senior Citizen Passes to County Parks. Mr. Agnor noted receipt
of a letter from Mr. Eston B. Stephenson, dated May 3, 1982, wherein Mr. Stephenson
requests that the County consider providing all senior citizen residents of Albemarle
County with life time free entrance passes to Mint Springs and Chris Greene Lake Parks.
Mr. Agnor said Mr. Stephenson's letter was forwarded to Mr. Patrick K. Mullaney, Director
of the Parks and Recreation Department, who responded with the following memorandum dated
May 7, 1982:
"Nearly all of the State and Federal Parks that we contacted have some type
of special provision for senior citizens. We have determined that the age
for senior c.itizens varies from agency to agency.
It is my personal feeling that reduced rates should be based on "ability to
pay" as opposed to age and we are hoping to work with our County Social
Services Department, as we have in the past, to determine reduced season
pass rates for families qualifying for their programs. However, in keeping
with other State and local agencies and recognizing that most of the senior
citizens that we deal with have relatively low incomes, it may be wise to
offer some type of special consideration for senior citizens.
In doing this at the present time with the new season upon us and a com-
pletely new entry procedure to work with, our main concern is to eliminate
as much confusion as possible for our cashiers and for our customers as
they arrive at the park. For this reason we would like the Board's appro-
val to proceed with one of the following two options:
1. That senior citizens (62 and over) be issued season passes. These
passes would be issued only at the Parks and Recreation Department office
after proper verification of age is presented. These passes would not be
issued at the park site. Senior citizens who do not possess this pass will
pay the regular park entry fee.
We do not feel that this would result in a significant loss in revenue,
because we do not have that many seniors currently using the park facilities.
This option would be the easiest one for us to administer; or
2. Senior citizens will be admitted to the parks at the current reduced
children's ra~es~ To qualify for these rates the person involved must
possess a senior discount identification card (available from JABA for
residents of Planning District 10 over sixty years of age) which they must
present to the cashier on duty at the park.
The reason we would like to use children's rates for this service is that
otherwise we would have six different rates being charged at the front
gate. If after our first year's experience we find that we can handle the
traffic flow on busy days without too much problem, then we could change
these rates if they prove to be unsatisfactory."

May 12, 1982 (Regular Day Meeting)
Mr. Fisher said he felt most of the elderly would prefer to visit the parks during
the week when there is less of a crowd. Mr. Fisher said he felt the first recommendation
in Mr. Mullaney's memorandum was a good idea, but felt a policy such as this should be
regularly reviewed, since the number of retiring persons is constantly increasing. He
felt the statement about basing free passes on the ability to pay, rather than age, has
merit and should be considered for use in the future.
Mr. Butler commented that he felt a free pass policy for the elderly was a good idea.
Miss Nash said that most of the parks surveyed by Mr. Mullaney were swimming facilities,
and she doubted that many elderly utilized such facilities in great numbers; she supported
this suggestion.
Motion was then offered by Mr. Butler to accept as a new policy for the Parks and
Recreation Department, Mr. Mullaney's recommendation one, which reads: "That ~senior
citizens (62 and over) be issued free season passes. These passes would be issued only at
the Parks and Recreation Department Office after proper verification of age is presented.
These passes would not be issued at the park site. Senior citizens who do not possess
this pass will pay the regular park entry fee." Mr. Agnor asked if any time limit was
wished for this policy. Mr. Fisher said he would like to see this policy enacted for one
year, at the end of which the policy can be reviewed and changed if necessary. Mr. Butler
said he would accept the one year limitation to his motion. The motion was seconded by
Miss Nash and carried by the following recorded vote:
AYES:
NAYS:
Mr. Butler, Mrs. Cooke, Mr. Fisher, Mr. Henley, Mr. Lindstrom and Miss Nash.
None.
(NOTE: At 10:14 A.M., Miss Nash left the meeting.)
Agenda Item No. 6. Literary Fund Loan Applications (3). Mr. Agnor presented a
request from the Albemarle County School Board for three literary fund loan applications
on the following projects.
1. Henley Middle School - Replacement of the roof, $250,000.
Jouett Middle School - Replacement of the roof and the one-story
high walls, $555,500.
3. Walton Middle School - Replacement ~0f the roof, $250,000.
Mr. Agnor noted that these three items have been included in the five year budget for
capital expenditures. Mr. Agnor said the reason for these loan applications coming to the
Board before the capital budget is to meet deadlines for submitting the applications to
the State. Mr. Agnor said the capital budget has been reviewed by the Planning Commission,
and all three of the above requests have been recommended for inclusion in this program.
Mr. Agnor said if the Board of Supervisors wished to authorize the applications, resolutions
must be adopted.
Mr. Fisher said he was extremely unhappy with having to replace the roofs of these
three buildings so soon after construction and at such a high cost to the County. Mr.
Agnor said these three schools are only a few of the many structures in this area built
with a flat roof, which all having the same problem of leaking. Mr. Agnor said several of
the buildings owned by the University of Virginia are having similar problems.
Mr. St. John said his office has been investigating this problem, and stated that one
of the school building roofs is still under warranty. Mr. St. John said the roofing
material used on these structures has failed and that it is a nationwide problem. Mr. St.
John said the State Attorney General is looking into the possibility of a class action
suit against the manufacturers of the roofing materials, but that the County cannot wait
for that suit to be decided, the roofs must be replaced as soon as possible. Mr. St. John
described the problem with the roofing material and noted that the "Clerk of the Works"
who supervised the construction of Walton School recommended not accepting the roof work
at the time of completion. Mr. St. John added that the architect for that project did
accept the work and the County was bound by the architect's acceptance.
Mr. Butler asked if using literary funds for these projects would take away from
future funding of other necessary school construction projects. Mr. Agnor said it has
been the policy to use literary funds when available for a project, because it is less
costly to borrow literary fund money at three percent interest, rather than defer the
project until county funds are available. Mr. Fisher said these requests have been
received as high priorities from the School Board because water leakage is damaging the
structures and their contents as well as creating a fire hazard through the electrical
systems.
Mrs. Cooke said she would like some assurance that the repair work will be more
satisfactory than the original installation. Mr. Agnor said that when the roof of the
Joint Security Complex was replaced, an architect specializing in roofs was hired not only
to design the new roof, but to actually supervise the construction of the new roof. Mr.
Agnor said he would be glad to speak with Dr. Gutierrez and discuss the procedure used at
the Joint Security Complex. Mr. Fisher felt that Mr. Agnor's suggestion to speak with Dr.
Gutierrez should be carried out.
Motion was then offered by Mr. Lindstrom to adopt the following three resolutions
authorizing the Albemarle County School Board to apply for literary fund loans in the
total amount of $1,055,500 and to recommend that money used from these loans permanently
correct the leakage problem of the roofs.
May 12, 1982 (Regular Day Meeting)
WHEREAS, The School Board for the County of Albemarle, on the 30th day
of April, 1982, presented to this Board, an application addressed to the

Agenda Item No. 12e. Appropriation: Education. Mr. Agnor read the following
memorandum from Mr. Ray Jones, Director of Finance, dated May 7, 1982: :
"In a memorandum received from Dr. J. William Barton, Assistant Super-
intendent for Finance/Business Management, dated April 29, 1982, he requests
several capital improvement appropriations. Separate action from this
memorandum is being requested on the Literary Fund applications. However,
the appropriation for Jouett, Henley and Walton are for plans and specifi-
cations on the same projects. As you probably know, all three of these
projects are for roof replacements plus repairing of the walls at Jouett.
The appropriation requested for the $1 million is on Phase III of Albemarle
High School. Per Dr. Barton's memo, a Literary Fund loan of $1 million is
to be the source of funding on this project. A previous appropriation of
$50,000 for plans and specifications was made on this project.
It is requested that the Board make the following appropriations from the
Capital Improvement Fund Balance:
19.19C Albemarle High School -- Phase III $ 950,000
~:~ii~9.34 Jouett School -- Roof and Wall Repairs 24~000
19.35 Henley School -- Roof Repairs 20,000
19.36 Walton School -- Roof Repairs 20~000
$1,014,000
As proceed~of the various Literary Fund loans are received, the monies
~ac~ into the Capital Improvement Fund for other appropriations on
approved Capital projects. 0nly the project for the Albemarle High School
PHase III renovations had been considered by the Board as a specific
project in previous Capital .Improvement budgets. However, it is understood
that a faulty roof will probably result in further structural damage."
Mr. Fisher asked the students visiting-for Youth In Government Day about the renova-
tions to Albemarle High School. One student said the heating and cooling system ~is uneven,
leaving some classrooms cold and others very.hot. The same student also commented that
other renovations to Albemarle High School are very nice and were badly needed.
Motion was offered by Mr. Lindstrom, seconded by Mrs. Cooke to adopt the following
resolution:
BE IT RESOLVED by the Board of Supervisors of Albemarle County, Virginia,
that $1,014,000.00 be, and the same hereby is, appropriated from the Capital
Zmprovement Fund and Coded as follows:
19.19C Albemarle High School -- Phase III $950,000

Agenda Item No. 11. A.H.I.P. Quarterly Report. The Third Quarter Report of Fiscal
Year 1981-82 for the Albemarle Housing Improvement Program, Inc., was presented by Mr.
Gary Oliveria. Mr. Oliveria said the HUD Bloc Grant money for this fiscal year will be
spent by the end of this quarter, and that the County Planning Department is in the
process of aiding AHIP in applying to the Department of Housing and Urban Development for
a new Bloc Grant.
Mr. 01iveria then presented slides showing the home rehabilitation projects completed
during this quarter.
Agenda Item No. 14. Clarification of Albemarle County Service Authority Service
Areas. Mr. Tucker summarized the discussion from the April 21, 1982, meeting and then
presented a map indicating all parcels which currently abut the existing waterline through-
out the entire County, not strictly the Route 29 north and Scottsville Areas.
Mr. Fisher said since the decision to serve the United Parcel Service property, a
decision must be made on which other parcels should be served. Mr. Tucker said his staff
used existing maps to determine which parcels actually abut existing waterlines, and noted
that not all parcels have structures on them. Mr. Fisher expressed concern about serving
some parcels where existing structures may be set back as much as 2,000 feet from the
waterline. Mr. Lindstrom said he would like to avoid having any "note" on the map and
suggested a field survey to determine which parcels have existing structures which could
be served by water. Mr. Lindstrom asked Mr. Brent of the Service Authority if he felt
serving only those parcels with existing structures would be feasible. Mr. Brent said it
would be workable if the map is properly colored to indicate those parcels which would be
eligible under this plan.
Mr. Lindstrom asked if this type policy were adopted, would it be done as a clarif-
ication retroactively, or as a new policy. Mr. Fisher said the procedure would have to be
to hold a public hearing to amend the service areas.
Debate then ensued about what type of structures should be considered if a policy to
include parcels with existing structures is pursued. Mr. Brent recommended using aerial
photographs to identify structures. Mr. Henley recommended using the existing tax re-
cords. Mr. Henley and Mr. Fisher felt a field survey would be essential in order to
identify all types of existing structures on specific parcels. Following this debate, Mr.
Fisher requested Mr. Tucker to have his staff survey each parcel which is not currently in
the service areas of the Albemarle County Service Authority and report those findings back
to the Board at the June 9, 1982, meeting.
Agenda Item No. 15. Appointments. Mr. Fisher noted the additional appointments on
the list which was recently received by the Board. Miss Nash, Mrs. Cooke and Mr. Fisher
said they had possible nominees to the Visitors Bureau, Library Board and Jordan Development
Corporation respectively; but had not been in contact with those people and would like to
withhold nominations.
Mr. F±sher said one appointment which could be made was for the Criminal Justice
Advisory Council, noting that traditionally the County has nominated the Sheriff and a
deputy. Motion was offered by Mr. Henley, seconded by Mrs. Cooke, to reappoint Sheriff
George Bailey and Deputy Sheriff James L. Higgins to another one year term, effective
July 1, 1982 through June 30, 1983. Roll was called and the motion carried by the following
recorded vote:
AYES:
NAYS:
Mr. Butler, Mrs. Cooke, Mr. Fisher, Mr. Henley, Mr. Lindstrom and Miss Nash.
None.
Mr. Fisher noted that the At-Large position on the School Board is due to expire, and
asked if the Board wished to advertise this vacancy or reappoint Mrs. Sally Thomas to the
post. Mr. Henley offered motion to reappoint Mrs. Thomas to another term on the School
Board as the At-Large member. Miss Nash said names of other qualified citizens should be
sought before the reappointment is made. Mr. Fisher said he did not know if Mrs. Thomas
wanted to be reappointed, and suggested contacting Mrs. Thomas to see if she desired
reappointment before going any further.
Appointments for the Welfare Board, Jefferson Area Board on Aging, Advisory Council
on Aging and the Rivanna Water & Sewer Authority Board were also discussed, but no nomina-
tions were suggested, and appointments were deferred.
Agenda Item No. 16. Other Matters Not on the Agenda. Miss Nash requested the Board
again adjourn into executive session in order to finish the discussion on the "borrow pit"
for the Scottsville levee project. Mr. Lindstrom said he would also like to discuss the
Caleb Stowe/UVB case, which was not discussed during lunch. At 3:00 P.M., motion was
offered by Miss Nash, seconded by Mr. Lindstrom, to adjourn into executive session in
order to discuss legal matters. Roll was called and the motion carried by the following
recorded vote:
AYES:
NAYS:
Mr. Butler, Mrs. Cooke, Mr. Fisher, Mr. Henley, Mr. Lindstrom and Miss Nash.
None.
At 3:35 P.M., the meeting reconvened back into open session. Motion was then offered
by Mr. Lindstrom, seconded by Mr. Butler, to authorize the Chairman to sign a deed of
easement dated May 11, 1982, concerning the Scottsville Flood Control SP-81-68, under the
specific condition that "Construction is to begin within five years." Roll was then

Call To Order. The meeting was called to order at 7:30 P.M., by the Chairman, Mr.
Fisher. Mr. Fisher noted that a quorum was not yet present.
The meeting was turned over to Mr. Cole Hendrix, Acting Chairman of the Rivanna Water
and Sewer Authority, who introduced the Rivanna Board members and representatives from the
consulting firm of Camp, Dresser and McKee. Mr. Hendrix noted the presence of two members
of the Charlottesville City Council; Francis L. Buck and John Conover. (NOTE: At 7:37
P.M., Mrs. Cooke arrived.)
Mr. Hendrix then turn the meeting over to Mr. George Williams, Executive Director of
the Rivanna Water and Sewer Authority, who made a twenty minute presentation on the Buck
Mountain Water Supply Study, A Summary of Findings, (Note: a complete copy of Mr. Williams'
presentation is on file in the office of the Clerk to the Board of Supervisors.) The
following is a condensation of Mr. Williams' presentation:
The Charlottesville/Albemarle urban area presently obtains potable water from
four surface water impoundments. These reservoirs are adequate for near future
needs but the need for additional water beyond the year 2000 is apparent.
Projections based on the 1977 study by Camp Dresser & McKee have been modified
to show effects that water conservation programs have brought about.- Projec-
tions will be reviewed periodically in the future to determine exact timing.
Several options were investigated as potential sources of future public water
supply including:
North Fork Rivanna River - quantify of water is adequate but a portion of
the drainage basin is outside the jurisdiction area (Greene County)
2. Mechums River - eliminated due to poor water quality
Rivanna River - eliminated due to location in highly urbanized area causing
severe water quality problems
4. Buck Island Creek - eliminated due to high pumping costs
Preddys Creek - eliminated due to low yield
Moormans River - eliminated due to low yield in drought conditions
James River - option does exist, very-expensive
Buck Mountain Creek - good yield, acceptable water quality, proximity of
South Rivanna water plant; subject of present study
Another option which could be utilized is the use of collapsible flashboards on
the South Rivanna Dam. Flashboards would add four feet to the dam height and
provide an additional safe yield of 6.4 million gallons per day and would delay
development of a new source by approximately ten years.
The Buck Mountain watershed was selected for concentrated study by the Board of
Directors of the Rivanna Water and Sewer Authority. A two year moratorium on
building in the area was enacted by the Albemarle County Board of Supervisors,
and is scheduled to expire on August 13, 1982.
