An adjourned meeting of the Board of Supervisors of Albemarle County, Virginia, was held on
December 10, 1975, at 4:00 P.M. in the Board Room of the County Office Building, Charlottesville,
Virginia. This meeting was adjourned from November 20, 1975.
PRESENT: Messrs. Stuart F. Carwile, Gerald E. Fisher, J.T. Henley, Jr., William C. Thacker, Jr.,
Gordon L. Wheeler and Lloyd F. Wood, Jr.
OFFICERS PRESENT: Messrs. J.H. Bailey, County Executive; Ray B. Jones, Director of Finance; Robert
Sampson, Assistant to the County Executive; James Bowling, Deputy County Attorney; and Michael
Carroll, Personnel Department.
Meeting was called to order at 4:00 P.M. by Chairman Gordon L. Wheeler.
No. 1. Economic Development Commission. Mr. Louie L. Scribner, Chairman of the Charlottesville-
Albemarle Economic Development Commission, read a prepared statement endorsing the concept of an
Industrial Development Revenue Bond Authority for Albemarle County and the City of Charlottesville.
He then presented to the Board a list of 116 localities in Virginia who presently have such an
authority, and a sample ordinance from the Governor's office, to create an authority under Chapter
33 Title 15.1 of the Code of Virginia.
Mr. Wheeler said he has had informal meetings with members of City Council, and is under the
impression that the City seems to be favoring separate, rather than a joint authority. He reiterated
that their position was not official. Mr. Thacker, Board representative on the Economic Development
Commission, said he felt strongly that it was something that the entire community needed. Mr.
Thacker then offered motion that the Chairman appoint a committee to meet either separately or
jointly with the City, to prepare an ordinance in cooperation with the County Attorney's office, and
to report back to the Board at the earliest possible date. Mr. Wheeler said if it is the desire of
the Board, the inter-governmental committeecomposed of the Board Chairman, County Executive, and
County Attorney will meet with the Mayor, City Manager, and City Attorney.
Mr. Wood said he would like to go ahead and set a public hearing date. Mr. Thacker said in
order to advertise for a public hearing, a' two week advertising schedule would have to be set up~
placing the date of the hearing beyond the end of the present Board's terms. Mr'. Wood said he was
aware of a request by a local industry for funds under such an authority, and hoped that the Board
would call a public hearing on this subject before they left office on December 31st.
Mr. Fisher said he would like time to discuss the possibility of a joint authority with the
City before holding public hearings, as he was concerned with the possibility of cresting conflict
between the two localities if only one has an authority. Mr. Carwile said he supported Mr. Wood's
request to hold a public hearing as soon as possible.
Mr. Wood then offered a substitute motion to advertise for a public hearing an Ordinance to
establish an Industrial Revenue Bond Authority in Albemarle County, for December 30, 1975 at 7:30
P.M. in the County Courthouse. Motion was seconded by Mr. Carwile. Mr. James Bowling told the
Board before an ordinance can be drafted by the County Attorney's office, the Board must decide what
authority an Industrial Bond Authority is going to be allowed to have, as the enabling legislation
is very broad. Mr. Fred Ferguson of the Chamber of Commerce, said the Authority would be a public
entity, and act only at the request of the public. Mr. Bailey said the impact of this type of
Authority must be discussed at the public hearing, and suggested the staff present information to
the Board before the public hearing date. At this point roll was called and motion to hold a public
~hearing was carried by the following recorded vote:
AYES:
NAYS:
Messrs. Carwile, Thacker, Wheeler and Wood.
Messrs. Fisher and Henley.
