He added that this would not change or affect the Zoning Ordinance. Mr. Myers questioned the enforcement of this ordinance which would be on a complaint basis.

He asked further who would determine what was a reasonable amount of time would be, etc. Mr. Bookman stated that he felt thepolicy was working fine but that the passege of an ordinance would tie everything up too tight. Mr. Myers felt that if the Board could not agree with it being a policy then it would be worse to make it an ordinance. Mr. Bookman added that everything should be decided upon before putting it in ordinance form and cn the books. Mr. Stamie Lyttle was present and stated that years ago they decided to go with the policy which was thought best, that the Home Builders are not against this becoming ordinance but would really prefer policy at this time, that the wording is too complicated for all to understand, and that this will not work unless there is total cooperation within all departments at the County. Mr. Painter stated that he had not seen this ordinance until this morning and felt that if there had been a meeting of the Home Builders and the Planning Department that the Engineering and Health Departments should have been included in on the discussion.

Mr. Clark Plaxco of Brandermill was present to discuss street signs for his development. Mrs. Girone stated that she was very impressed with the letter from Mr. Plaxco and felt that Brander- mill could use the blue signs but t_hat the County would have to protect itself by setting some standards by which a conmunity cDuld be given special consi'deration in requesting special signage. Mr. Micas stated that it could be an Engineering Department policy if a special area fits criteria set by the Board of Supervisors. Mr. Bookman stated that he supports Brandermill paying for the past costs for the signs that cannot be used and for the civic association to pay for any future blue signs. After further consideraticm of this matter, it was on n~tion of Mr. Bookman, seconded by Mrs~ Girc~e, resolved that the request of Brande?mill be approved in conformance with their letter Of October 28, 1976, ~hd further that a comm~-ttee be aPPOinted for such requests in the future. a set u~ Ayes: Mr. O'Neill, Mrs. Girone, Mr. Apperson, Mr. Bookman and Mr. Myers.

Mr. Myers stated that he did not see anything wrong with this construction. Mr. Micas stated that he felt that in the future local units of govern- nents will be held nore responsible for utilities and that if a clause were to be put in that the developers would be liable for any accidents that might occur the County would probably still be liable.
