Mr. Wheeler recognized Lettie E. Neher, interim Clerk of the Board.
Mr. Wheeler asked Mr. John Humphrey, County Planner, to present the Ivy Service
Area, Project of the Albemarle C~umty Service Authority, for discussion. He then asked
Mr. Humphrey for recommendations of the County Planning Department.
Mr. Humphrey stated that the Planning Department felt the detimeation generally
follows the adopted plau of the channelization ~r~ogram in this area with the addition of
Glenaire amd Flordon, which are separate entities in this ease in that they exist and that
as far as the Planning Beard is concerned amy?plamming in this area shemld be comprehemsive
emough, along with sewer smd water, and should emcompass the ultimate development in Ivy
as presently approved smd adopted~
Mr. Fisher them made a motion that the service district be as outlined hy
Mr. Humphrey, for the section north of U.E. Route 250 smd that the area south of U.S. Route
250 be eEcluded at this time.~H~halso-~a~ke~fthat~the~ea~inort~?ef U.S. Route 250 be
limited to the supply of water smd mot sewerage.
This motion having been seeomded by Mr. Henley, the Chairman then called on
members of the Board for comment.
Mr. Wood commented that to limit this area to water service only is te deceive
the people Who live in this area and he did not thimk the Board could designate the area
either north or south of 250 for only water service amd still have the Service Authority
carry oat the comprehensive plan.
Mr. Carwile felt that if the area south of 250 is included it should exclude the
area purchased ~y General Electric since no formal agreement has been entered into with
General Electrie~ however, he felt that it shomld include both water amd sewer.
Mr. Henley did not agree that Route 250 is the proper boundary and did mot believe
that Ivy should be split in two. He felt that the project should ~e approved without
sewer facilities, if same could be reinstated.
Mr. Batchelor stated that if this were approved without sewer facilities at this
time~ the Supervisors would have to approve sewer facilities before the start of such a
proj oct.
Mr.~ wheeler stated that he did not believe that to desigmate this area gives up
amy right of control, by the Smpervisers, and thought it would be a mistake not to designate
both water smd sewer for this area. At this time, he called upon the public for comment.
Mr. William Colony spoke im opposition. He thought service should be limited to size
of facilities of present property owners amd platted lots and that service should Be extended
no further.
Mr. W. B. Christian spoke in opposition. He asked-if the Comnty and the Health
Department were enforcing the Septic Tam~ 0rdinamce. He also thought, that the Co-~aty 'had
purchased water systems that are depleted im water.
Mr. Walter Yo~mg spoke in'~favor of the project. He felt that septic tanks are~
not feasible for the entire County and thatthe Commty does meed sewer service. He ~rged
passage of the resolution.
Capt. Gates spoke in opposition. He did not understand why he should pay for water
amd sewer service for Crozet and Ivy. He felt that the County shomld adopt public utility
districta~
Mr. Jack Tagga~rt felt that the supervisors Had ,~approved subdivisions with imade~ate
water facilities.
Mrs.r Churchill felt that the resolution should include the General Electric area
if they' are goimg, to. pay a portion of the cost.
Mr. Joh~ Wolfe asked if the County smd City are to set up a cooperative wa ~ter amd
sewer plan~
Mr...Tony IaChetta felt that the Service Authority should be in the charge ~f a
