We were accompanied by Mr. R. G. Warner, Resident Highway Engineer. After visiting these roads, we wish to make the following recommendations: 1) Route #620 (Woodridge): Addition to the State system of existing private road from Route #620 to .4 miles North of #620. Recommendation to accept subject to final determination by the Highway Department and County as to whether this road was planned as a Subdivision street or not. Covesville: Addition to State system of existing private road from Route 837 to its intersecvion with the Southern Railroad to .25 miles North of said intersection. Recommendation~was to accept this, subject to final check with the Southern Railroad as to where their right-of-way is. 3) Beagle Gap Road: From Route 691 to .~ miles West. Recommendation is to accept this road into the system with Mr. Walter Young participating in a portion of the cost to shape the road and improve the drainage and surface. This recommendation is made since Mr. Young owns several parcels of rental property along this road. This approval would again rest on final determination by the Highway Department and the County, as to whether any portion had been platted as a subdivision development.

No. 4 d). Mr. John'Humphrey presented a letter from Mr. Charles C. Sensabaugh, General Manager of Charlottesville Hardware Company, Inc., requesting a road sign be erected at the intersection of Route 29 North and out State Route 631 (Rio Road). Mr. Humphrey asked Mr. Warner if the policy would be different since the requested sign would be at the intersection of two major roads. Mr. Warner stated the policy was the same, the Highway Department would erect the sign, but the person requesting the sign must pay for it. Mr. Wood said that although the request is from Charlottesville Hardware, there are many other companies on that road and he felt they should all share in the expense of purchasing the road sign. Mr. Woo.d~then offered motion to adopt the following resolution. Motion was seconded by Mr. Fisher, and carried by the following recorded vote: AYES: Mesars. Carwile, Fisher, Henley, Thacker and Wood. NAYS: None.

No. 4 e). Highway matters not on the agenda from the Board. to repair holes on Route 618. Mr. Henley requested Mr. Warner Mr. Carwile inquired if the state maintains the entrance to Montvue Subdivision. Mr. Warner said they did not, as it was not in the "right-of-way". Mr. Carwile then asked if any progress was being made on Old Forge Road. Mr. Warner said to his knowledge nothing had yet been done, but that he would be glad to check. Mr. Wood said he had asked Mr. Charles Perry of the Highway Department to check into repairing the railroad bridge on Huntington Road, but had not heard the status. Mr. Warner said they had been in tou~h with the Railroad, but had not gotten a response. Mr. Wood then asked Mr. Warner to look into repairing holes in Rio Road, especially the area where the several subdivisions meet the main road. Mr. Warner said that even though the problem lies with privately owned roads, his Department has been filling them because the holes are right at the edge of the State maintained roads. Mr. Fisher asked Mr. Warner to check and see that road lines are painted at the entrance of the new Ednam Forest Subdivision. Mr. Warner said he had been in touch with the owner, and was assured it would he done at that time, but added he would check into that matter again. Mr Fisher also requested Mr. Warner to look into repairing holes in the road outside the Highway Research Council Building at the University of Virginia. No. 6. Public Hearing, Ordinance vacating a portion of the plat of Wakefield Subdivision shown on a plat rec'orded in the Office of the Clerk of the Circuit Court in Deed Book 385, page 157. This vacation for that portion of Wakefield Court lying on the northwesterly side of Wakefield Road between Lot 1, Block C of said subdivision and Lot 6, Block A thereof. (Advertised in the Daily Progress on June 27 and July 4, 1975) Mr. Humphrey said the Planning Department did communicate with the City Planning staff and Commission to receive comments. The City Planning Commission recommended vacation, but w~h~ ~ 192 (7-17-75 Day) plat. Mr. Humphrey added that if the Board wished to vacate this plat, he recommended some provision be made for access along property lines to utilities. The recommended easement width was 20 feet. Mr. Thacker asked if anyone from the public wished to speak on the subject. Mr. Lloyd Wood said Mr. Vaughan Stewart, and Mr. Paige Lynch had spoken to him and said they would not be able to attend the meeting, but that they were in favor of the plat vacation. Mr. Thacker closed the public hearing since no one wished to speak. Mr. Wood pointed out on a map the reason this vacation request was denied in 1973. He then pointed out how a permanent cul-de-sac was now at the end of this street, and how all the utility lines are located in that area. He added that Wakefield Subdivision can take no further development, and offered motion to adopt the ordinance advertised for vacation with no allowance for an easement. Motion was seconded by Mr. Henley. Mr. Batchelor noted that water, sewer and gas lines have been installed in that area and that a right-of-way should be retained. Mr. Fisher said there is no recommendation from the County Planning Commission, and that the Planning Staff recommends against vacation. Mr. Wood noted that a petition had been presented to the City by property owners on the City side, requesting vacation of the Wakefield Court right-of-way. There was no further discussion, role was called, and motion to adopt the ordinance was denied by the following recorded vote: AYES: NAYS: ABSENT: Mr. Wood. Messrs.

Mr. E. E. Thompson, an adjacent landowner stated he had no objections to the plat vacation. Mr. Thacker asked why a corrected plat had been put to record. Mr. McCue said there was a resurvey, which repositioned the lot boundaries, and their present request is to vacate the corrected plat (Lots 23, 24 and 25). No one else from the public wished to speak and Mr. Thacker closed the public hearing. Henley then offered motion to adopt the following ordinance.

Mr. Kelly Reynolds, County Fire Marshal, was present but suggested the Board hear the report from Mr. E. E. Thompson of the Albemarle County Service Authority first. Mr. Thompson noted his report of July 11, 1975, (copy of which is in the permanent file of the Board of Supervisors) then said since the writing of this report, he has been able to secure the services of two school age boys under a Federally funded program, to maintain fire hydrants and make them serviceable. Mr. Fisher asked about hydrants located on raw water lines. Mr. Thompson said they cannot be used because of the intense water pressure, and was not sure which alternative would be better, removing them and try to salvage, or color code those that are unuseable. Mr. Carwile asked about fire hydrants located in private subdivisions, on private water systems. Mr. Thompson said these hydrants were being supplied with water by the private subdivision, and that the Albemarle Service Authority did not.have jurisdiction. Mr. Carwile then suggested the County Attorney draft an ordinance, requiring these private subdivisions to maintain their hydrants to County standards. Mr. Thacker asked about ithe hydrant problem in the Scottsville area. Mr. Thompson said the biggest problem is they are only selling about 53% of the water and cannot detect the area of leakage. He added they have purchased a "leak detector" to hopefully locate the problem. Mr~ Thompson then said another serious problem is the fact that the hydrants are so old they cannot be serviced without turning o£f the entire water system, and the entire hydrant must be replaced, as parts are not available. Mayor Ramon Thacker of Scottsville said he disagreed with one item in the report, that being most hydrant threads were not standard size. Mayor Thacker said the hydrants in Scottsville were all equipped with National Standard threads, and all trucks carried adaptors in case of pro- blems. He asked what could be done to require Paulett Subdivision to install hydrants as they develop. Mr. John Humphrey said the subdivision had been approved by the Board before hydrants were required, and this subdivision on a well system and hydrants are not feasible. Mr. Thompson said the Service Authority would gladly help the town of Scottsville in analyzing their hydrant system. He added they are going to purchase a "tap valve" to aid in repairing hydrants. This valve will make it possible to repair the hydrant without turning off the entire water system. No. tl. Service Authority Note. Motion was offered by Mr. Carwile to defer this matter until Wednesday, July 23, 1975, at 7:30 P.M., motion was seconded by Mr. Wood, and carried by the following recorded wote: AYES: Messrs. Carwile, Fisher, Henley, Thacker and Wood. NAYS: None. ABSENT: Mr.. Wheeler. No. 5. Matters not on the agenda from the public. No one from the public wished to speak. No. 9. Land Use. Miss Page Godsey, Administrative Assistant, reported that all field work on land use applications has been finished with the exception of about 10 parcels she predicted that the office will meet the 1975 deadline. Miss Godsey then requested a revision of Section 9-31(b) of the Land Use Tax Ordinance, citing the reason being the County Ordinance compared to the State Ordinance requires applicants to submit an application for each use on a parcel as well as a separate application on each parcel. Motion was offered by Mr. Henley, seconded by Mr. Carwile to advertise for a public hearing, an amendment to the Land Use Tax Ordinance for August 13, 1975, at 7:30 P.M. Role was called, and motion carried by the following recorded vote: AYES: Messrs. Carwile, Fisher, Henley, Thacker, and Wood. NAYS: None. ABSENT: Mr. Wheeler. Miss Godsey next presented She said this would simplify the BE IH RESOLVED by Article VIII, Chapter the following resolution for the Boalrd's consideration. application and re-application procedure. the Albemarle County Board of SuperVisors that Section 9-33 (b) 9 of the Albemarle County Code is hereby amended to read as follows: The application fee under the Ordinance for Special Assessments for Agricultural, Horticultural, Forest or Open Space Real Estate (Land Use Tax Ordinance) shall be figured at $.15 per acre on total acreage with a minimum charge of $15.00 per individual owner and shall be paid to the Director of Finance of the County. However, where a landowner is required to file a new application under the Ordinance for Specia! Assessments for Agri- cultural, Horticultural, Forest or Open Space Real Estate, because the use or acreage of such land previously approved has changed, the application fee for said re-application shall be $15.00. These fees may be changed from time-to-time by resolution of the Board ~of Supervisors. Mr. ~Henley offered motion to approve the resolution as presented by Miss Godsey. seconded by Mr. Carwile, and carried by the following recorded vote: Motion was AYES': NAYS: ABSENT: Messrs. Carwi!e, Fisher, Henley, Thacker and Wood. None. Mr. Wheeler. Miss Godsey next presented a request for a Land Use Classification Appeals Board to be made up of three members. The duties would be to review land use classifications when requested to do so by the applicant. Mr. Henley said he felt it sounded like something that was very much in need. Mr. Hhacker agreed with Mr. Henley, and said the County Attorney should prepare such a resolution for the Board's consideration. Mr. Fisher agreed, and felt it should be a citizen committee as suggested by Miss Godsey. Mr. Thacker said that since it was the consensus of the Board, they would place this item on the agenda for August 13, 1975, and advised Board members to be prepared to make appointments. No. 16. Appropriation Totier project. Mr. David Morris., Chairman of the Parks Committee, was present and requested the Board's permission to release the Totier Creek Project for bids. He said the project consists of construction of a comfort/maintenance structure, tot-lot play structure, (7-17-75 Day) delayed until some future time. Mr. Thacker said the project had been approved for revenue sharing funds, but no appropriation has yet been made. Mr. Batchelor recommended making an appropriation of $50,000, and if the bids are within this appropriated amount the contract can be immediately awarded. Mr. Henley asked if things like seeding would also be bid. Mr. Morris said yes, and Mr. Henley protested saying County employees could probably do it themselves for half the price. Mr. Fisher said he was not inclined to appropriate more than the requested $50,000 without first viewing the bids. Mr. Carwile then offered motion that the Parks Committee be authorized to put the Totier Creek project out to bid, and that it be bid in such a fashion that there be alternates in the bid so items ~an be deleted if necessary, and that appropriation for this project be deferred until the bids are received. Motion was seconded by Mr. Fisher, and carried by the following recorded vote: AYES: Messrs. Carwile, Fisher, Henley, Thacker and Wood. NAYS: -NOne. ABSENT: Mr. Wheeler. No. 12. Reports of the Department of Social Services for the months of May and June, 1975, were received in accordance with Virginia Code Section 63.1-52. No. 18. Restricted Roads Committee Report. Mr. William Roudabush, Chairman, presented the following report. Other members of the committee are Mr. Charles Perry of the Virginia State Highway Department and Mr. Ashley Williams, Assistant County Engineer. In order to provide a program of continuing maintenance for subdivision streets created under the Subdivision regulations of Albemarle County and assure uniform standards of design and construction as a guide for the Board of Supervisors, Planning Commission, developers and engineers, the following policy and design standards recom- mended adopted for subdivision streets to qualify for addition to the State Secondary Road System: 1. GENERAL POLICY: The general policy of the Board of Supervisors shall be: a) That in-so-far as possible, all streets which are required to be approved under the subdivision regula- tions shall be designed and constructed pursuant to standards which would make them eligible for addi- tion to the secondary system. b) That the d~sign standards be flexible enough to encourage meandering of residential streets with curves and grades to fit the terrain and with as little emphasis on grade and alignment requirements as necessary, so as to reduce residential development costs, preserve natural vegetation and discourage high traffic speeds. c) That the safety aspects of the design and construction of the facility is not reduced. SPECIFIC POLICY: The following design standards, both as to geometrics and base and pavement design and other requirements are established as minimums for subdivision streets: a) Current highway department policy does not provide for acceptance of streets in commercial subdivision developments in cases of dead-end, cul-de-sac or loop streets which do not interconnect with other State maintained roads or provide a genuine public service. In approving commercial subdivisions of this nature the Board may make special exceptions to allow such subdivisions to be approved with "Owners maintenance agreements" to provide for road maintenance, however, all design and construction standards specified herein shall be adhered to in all cases. Such streets shall be designed and constructed in accordance with (b) or (c) following. See Appendix A for standard form of owners agreement. b) For subdivision streets with dead-end, cul-de-sac or loop streets having a known and fixed vehicular demand not exceeding 210 vehicles per day and when there is absolutely no possibility'of the streets being extended the minimum standards for pavements and geometric design specified in Appendix B shall apply. c) For all other subdivision streets the minimum standards for pavements and geometric design specified in Appendix C shall apply. d) For Townhouse streets the minimum standards for pavements and geometric design specified in Appendix D shall apply. e) Subdivision streets which do not connect directly to present State maintained roads will only be approved with owners maintenance agreement requirements specified in (a) above to provide for private maintenance of'all streets within the subdivision. Such streets shall be designed and constructed in accordance with (b) or (c) above. f) Pri~vate access easements may be approved only in such instances when other access to subdivided lots or tracts is impractical or impossible. The number of lots, tracts or parcels served by a single private access easement shall be limited to no more than two, providing a minimum width-of no less than 20 feet for each parcel served. g) Bonds required for all roads approved under (b) and (c) above. (No recommendation on Bonding made by the Committee) h) Streets constructed under this policy will be recommended for acceptance in the secondary system by adoption of a suitable resolution at such time as they are brought to proper standards and found that they are open to the general use of the public and provide a genuine public service. STANDARDS OF DESIGN: There are many variations of design which may be used to fit local conditions. All reasonable requests for variations will be referred to the Virginia Department of Highways for consideration. The following attached appendices constitute minimum standards for design of subdivision streets in Al'bemarle County. (For the purposes of determining the traffic usage (VPD) on subdivision streets each family unit should be multiplied by seven): APPENDIX A: Standard form for owner's maintenance agreements for streets not eligible for secondary road maintenance. APPENDIX B: Minimum design standards for subdivision streets, dead-end streets, cul-de-sac or loop streets with fixed vehicular demand not exceeding 210 VPD. (7-17-75 Day) APPENDIX C: Minimum design standards for subdivision streets other than dead-end, cul-de-sac or loop streets and those W~th vehicular demand exceeding 210 VPD. APPENDIX D: Minimum design standards for townhouse streets. APPENDIX E: Base and pavement design criteria. APPENDIX F: Geometric design standards.

(7-17-75 Day) Co Eo APPENDIX E BASE AND PAVEMENT DESIGN CRITERIA GENERAL: For design purposes, subdivision and townhouse streets have been divided into five traffic volume categories as follows: Category I Up to 250 vehicles per day Category II 251 to 400 vehicles per day Category III 40l to 750 vehicles per day Category IV 751 to 3,000 vehicles per day Category V 3,001 or more vehicles per day (l) Typical pavement designs for each traffic volume category are included. These are to be used as a guide. Combinations other than those given may be used. Pavement designs should fit local conditions. In cases where the traffic volume is near the upper limit for any traffic category, consideration should be given to using the design of the next higher category. Local materials that normally would be considered unsatisfactory for use in construction may be acceptable when stabilized with a stabilizing agent such as cement or lime. Specifications for all materials can be found in the current Virginia Department of Highways' Road and Bridge Specifications, or appropriate supplemental specifications. "The Virginia Method of Determining CBR Values" is to be used to determine the bearing value of the soils. Details as to this method may be obtained from any Virginia Department of Highways' District Office or the Central Office in Richmond. SURFACE COURSES Prime and double' seal surface treatment and bituminous concrete plant-mixed surfaces ~hould be in accordance with Virginia Department of Highways' Specifications and Standards. Equivalent thickness of bituminous concrete in lieu of prime and double seal would be prime with cover material and 100 pounds bituminous concrete, Type S-4 or S-5. BASE COURSES Aggregate base course materials should comply with the Virginia Department of Highways' current Road and Bridge Specifications. These are of two types and various sizes as shown below: Type I -- Aggregate base material (crushed material only). Aggregate Size Numbers 21, 21-A or 22. Type II -- Aggregate base material (crushed or uncrushed material). Aggregate Size Numbers 21, 21-A or 22. When aggregate base material, Type I, is specified, the coarser grading aggregate Numbers 20, 21 or 21-A are preferable. When aggregate base material, Type It, is specified, aggregate size Numbers 21 or 21-A should be selected when a commercial material is provided. When it is intended to stabilize a local material with cement, approximately 8% by volume should be used. When lime is the stabilizing agent, approximately 4% by weight should be used; In all cases, however, representative samples Of the material should be submitted for test to determine the correct percentage of stabilizing agent. 2. Bituminous concrete base courses shall be either Type B-1 or B-3. CEMENT OR LIME STABILIZED SUBGRADE Several of the designs show lime or cement stabiilized subgrade. This is highly desirable when feasible. When not feasible, an equal or greater depth of base material should be provided. When cement stabilized subgrade is recommended, approximately I0% bY volume should be used. When lime is the stabilizing agent, approximately 5% by weight should be used. In all cases, I~owever, representative samples of the soil should be submitted for test. PORTLAND CEMENT CONCRETE PAVEMENT Where it is anticipated that the traffic will include a high percentage of heavy axle load vehicles, a six- inch depth of subbase material stabilized with approximately 4%. cement by weight wi~ll be required. Where the subgrade support soil has a CBR value of less than 10, a four-inch depth of subbase material will be required. As an alternate, the top six inches of subgrade shall be stabilized with cement or lime. Approximate percentages are shown under Section D. The concrete shall be Class A-3 paving concrete according to the current Virginia Department of Highways' Road and Bridge Specifications or appropriate supplemental specifications. The concrete pavement shall be plain portland cement concrete with maximum transverse joint spacings of 20 feet. (7-17-75 Day) F.

(l) When the anticipated vehicles per day exceed 5,500, a four-lane facility is normally required. Therefore, the total traffic volume would be 80% in each directioni This figure would then be used for the traffic category design. (2) Subgrade support soils, immediately under the pavement structure, with CBR values less than 10, will require an additional 6 inches of subbase, base, or select material. In lieu of this, the CBR value of the subgrade soil may be improved to a mTnimum value of 10, by other methods. (3) Sufficient CBR tests should be run to determine the true support value of the various soils in the subgrade.

(7-17-75 Day) At the conclusion of Mr. Roudabush's presentation, Mr. Carwile suggested a decision on adoption of this report be deferred until the Board and Planning Staff have had the opportunity to read the report in full. Mr. Carwile then offered motion to defer action on the restricted roads report until Wednesday, July 23, 1975. Motion was seconded by Mr. Henley, and carried by the following recorded vote: AYES: NAYS: ABSENT: Messrs. Carwile, Fisher, Henley, Thacker and Wood. None. Mr. Wheeler. No. 19. Earlysville Heights Subdivision, request for waiver of minimum lot size. Action on this matter was deferred from July 9, 1975. Mr. Homer Chevacci of the Regional Health Department was present at the Board's request, and read portions of a letter dated July 17, 1975, to Mrs. Mary"Joy Scala of the County Planning staff stating the average lot size was too small for both individual well and individual septic tank system, and that the Regional Health Department would approve these lots on their own merit if a central water system was used instead of individual wells. Mr. John Humphrey, County Planner, stated this waiver would be required on Section 4. He then clarified that the request was for a waiver of the minimum lot size to proceed with~individual wells and septic tanks. Mr. William M. Foster, representing Mr. Williams, owner of Earlysville Heights Subdivision, stated they had no objections if the Board would assure them that the central well system would be approved when the special permit came before the Board. Mr. Thacker said no such assurance could be given, and also said the Board would probably require that design of the systembe approved by the County Engineers office. Mr. Fisher then stated the Board has have never disapproved a central well system which meets the Board's policy of 1 gallon per minute per dwelling unit and correct pipe sizing. Mr. St. John said since this involved 15 lots, it would be best if handled under the State Corporation Commission, because it would be too cumbersome for a Home Owners Association. Mr. Fisher then offered motion to approve the waiver of the minimum lot size with the condition that the owner apply for a special permit for a central water system for the 15 lots in this section. Motion was seconded by Mr. Wood, and carried by the following recorded vote: AYES: Messrs. Carwile, Fisher, Henley, Thacker and Wood. NAYS: None. ABSENT: Mr. Wheeler. No. 10. Local Government Attorneys of Virginia. Mr. George St. John summarized the purpose of the orgainzation as being representation in Richmond, reporter services, continuing education, clearinghouse for information, research service and standing committees. He added the membership was $300 per year for the municipal body, and that it would be worth the cost. Motion was offered by Mr. Wood, seconded by Mr. Carwile to join the organization, and motion carried by the following recorded vote: AYES: NAYS: ABSENT: Messrs. Carwile, Fisher, Henley, Thacker and Wood. None. Mr. Wheeler. No. 13. Statement of expenses of the Director of Finance, the Sheriff's Office and the Office of the Commonwealth's Attorney for the month of June, 1975, were presented.

ABSENT: Mr. Wheeler The Board reconvened at t:10 P.M. _02 (7-17-75 Day) (7-22-75 Day) No. 4. Mr. Fisher read the following resolution into the record, and made motion for the adoption of the resolution: WHEREAS, the South Rivanna River Reservoir is a resource of great value to the people of Albemarle County and the City of Charlottesville; and WHEREAS, the Board of Supervisors of Albemarle County is concerned about the con- tinued viability of the said Reservoir; and WHEREAS, the Board has been presented with substantial evidence that high density residential development adjacent to the said Reservoir is likely to result in the dim- inution of the utility thereof and of its chances for continued viability; and WHEREAS, there is a substantial amount of high density residential zoning in the immediate drainage basin of the said Reservoir, which zoning was established prior to the adoption of the County's Comprehensive Plan in 1971 and is in direct conflict therewith; and WHEREAS, the Rivanna Sewer and Water Authority has proposed that a comprehensive study of the South Rivanna River Reservoir be undertaken to determine the effects of urban development adjacent thereto on the quality of water contained therein; NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED, by the Board of Supervisors of Albemarle County that no building permit shall be issued for any development in the immediate drainage basin of the South Rivanna River Reservoir until such time as the Rivanna Sewer and Water Authority Dhall have determined the effect of such development on the said Reservoir. For purposes of this ordinance, the term "immediate drainage basin of the said Reservoir" shall be deemed to include all that portion of the County bordered on the West ~and North by the South Rivanna River Reservoir; on the South by State Route 631 on the __W~st.~_by State Route 743 and on the East by State Route 659. An emergency being found to exist, this ordinance shall take effect immediately. Mr. Carwile stated that since he represents a person owning property at the reservoir who would be effected by this resolution, he would abstain from any action and participation. Motion was seconded by Mr. Henley. Mr. Wood said he felt it would be to the best interest of the citizens in the county to delay any action on this resolution until the full Board was present. Mr. Henley agreed with Mr. Wood that the entire Board should be present for the vote. Mr. Thacker also agreed that action should be delayed. Mr. Fisher said he would be willing to delay the vote if the Board instructed the Planning Commission not to take action on approving development in the above stated area, between now and the time the Board takes action. At this point, Mr. Henley asked Mr. Thacker to call a short recess for the purpose of dis- cussing the Pending resolution"with Mr. Fisher. Mr. Thacker granted his request. During their absence, two representatives of the press, Mr. Ben Critzer of the Daily Progress and Mr. Allen Cooper of the Richmond News Leader, protested this action claiming it violated the Freedom Of Information Act.
