The meeting opened with the Lord's Prayer led by Nr. Garnett. On motion by Nr. ~neeler, seconded by ~r. Yancey, minutes of the meetings of Nay 14 and Bay 21, 1970, were unanimously approved as submitted. Nr. Donald Carroll announced that he is being transferred out of the State and has submitted his resignation to Judge Waddell to be effective July 17, 1970. Nr. Carroll stated that he had enjoyed very much serving on the Board and would not have accepted appointment had he known that he would not be able to serve the remainder of the term. ~r. '~heeler inquired about progress on industrial access funds for Route 640. The County Executive advised that he is working with American Tel. and Tel. and the Highway Department on the financing of this project. Request of C. C. and S. H. ~Voodson to abandon a portion of the 01d Lynch- burg Road was deferred until 9:30 A.~.. on July 16, 1970. Nr. Yancey stated that about a year ago Nr.

Evans in obtaining a deed which would allow the drainage problem to be corrected. He advised that Ricky Road ser~es as a thoroughfare for numerous residents of ~e County and is not a road serving just those citizens living on the road. He recommended that this street be recontmended for accep- tance into the Secondary-System. Nr. Coats advised that he did not feel the Highway Department would accept t~icky l~oad since it is in a subdivision. After lengthy discussion, Nr. Garnett requested that the County Engineer and the County Attorney bring in all facts regarding this matter at the next regular meeting. Communication was received from ~r. James H. Williams requesting that certain streets in Jefferson Village be accepted into the Secondary System. 24'2:' The following resolution was offered by Mr. 'Wood, seconded by ~r-.

On ~ritten request from Mr. B. G. Warner, Mr. R. E. Tomlin, local train master for C & 0 Railway Company, appeared to discuss with the Board the railroad crossing on Route 240 at Eorton's in Crozet. Mr. Tomlin advised that it was necessary to perform the switch between 9:00 AM and 1~.1,:00 ~ but they were holding the traffic delay to a minimum and that the average switch now requires one ~nute to ~one minute, twenty seconds. Mr. Coats of the Highway Department advised that the railroad company had made tremendous im- provements since so many complaints were made known to them. The County Executive called attention to communication of October, 1966, in which C & 0 wa~ advised that permission for the crossing was granted on the basis that the switching of cars would be at approximately 6:00 A.M. Mr. Tomlin stated that this was impossible now. He did agree to attem~to get the crossing smoother and to continue to hold traffic delays to a minimum. Mr. Coats also stated that the Highway Department would keep in touch. The request for acceptance of streets in Section 2, Orchard Acres, which has been pending for some time, was again brought before the Board. Mr. Coats advised that this section still does not quaii~ for acceptance since: there are only two houses constructed there, only one of which is occupied. On motion by Mr. Wheeler, seconded by Mr. Yancey, unanimously carried, it was ordered that the developer be advised to resubmit his request when this section of Orchard Acres becomes eligible for acceptance.
