Mr. Horner notes that it is 10:25 a.m. and it ~s generally agreed by the Board that they should proceed with this matter. Mr. Horner gives a brief history of the problems in Lake Genito. He inquires of the Engineering Department if the road conditions have improved. Mr. Painter states that Mr. Covington of the Highway Department has inspected the roads and has prepared a report. Mr. Covington states that as of July 23, 1974, there are 15 items that the developer would have to complete before the Highway Department would accept these roads into the State System and explains the 15 items. Mr. Covington states that he will write a letter to the developer listing these items as they are rather lengthy and specific. Mr. Homer thanks Mr. Covington for taking the time and making the extra effort to prepare this report for the Board. Mr. Horner asks if anyone is present to add anything that would be pertinent to this case. Mrs. Sharon Villines comes before the Board and states that gravel and tar have been spread over the roads but that this has not helped the situation. She states that the cost of the roads were included in the price of the houses and the residents feel they deserve better. She says that the developer stated at another meeting that the roads in the Lake Genito Subdivision were as good as any roads in any subdivision in the County and that she did some investigating on her own and this was not true. Mr. Clarence J. Overhulser comes before the Board and states that he has been living in the Subdivision for two years. He states that he has had car repairs constantly, that telephone lines have been broken time and time again, that he has had said lines repaired and also that a fire has been caused by a faulty furnace. He states further that he has had too many promises and feels now that action'should be taken.

He says the developer has stated no emergencies have existed and that just recently a child stopped breathing and the parents could not reach an emergency squad due to telephone wires being broken. He states he feels the developer should stop wasting money by doing a rush and sloppy job and do things properly the first time. It is here noted that Mr. Curtis L. Rudolph, the developer of the Lake Genito Subdivision; is present in the hallway but does not wish to take part in the discussion. Mr. Horner states that he has been asked by Mr. Garland L. Rowsey, Jr. to approve an occupancy permit to allow him to move into a house that he has purchased in this area as the contract has already been signed. Mr. Rowsey states that he had signed the contract on May 17, 1974, and that he is obligated to move from his present address as of August 1. He states that he has had this time extended once but that if he is unable to move into this house in Lake Genito, the contract will have to be renegotiated at a higher interes~ rate. He states ~hat he is fully aware of the problems in the area and that he has faith in the Board to make the developer comply with the regulations as set forth by the County. Mr. Myers inquires if the contract had been signed prior to any action taken by the Board. Mr. Rowsey states that it was signed in May. A gentleman in the audience states that the residents have no objection to houses being sold, their concern is that the roads should be paved properly. Mr. Myers asks the County Attorney if granting this request for an occupancy permit would jeopardize the Board's plans. Mt.Mason states that it would not. Mr. Horner states that he feels occupancy permits could be considered on an individual basis. It is generally agreed by the Board that this will be acceptable. Mrs. Villines inquires if this will happen again and again until all the houses are occupied and the roads are still in need of repair. Mr. Hornet states that the developer has a bond with the County that will come due on November 1, 1974, which will provide the County money to take over the roads if the developer has not complied with the requirements. On motion of Mr. Horner, seconded by Mr. Myers, it is resolved that the resolution of July 10, 1974, with regard to the Lake Genito Subdivision, will remain in full force until further action of the Board or until such time as the roads have been accepted into the State System. Ayes: Mr. Horner, Mr. Myers, Mr. Apperson, Mr. Krepela and Mr. O'Neill. Mr. Krepela states that he is in favor of the resolution as the same has been done to other developers in the County. Mr. Horner states that he sympathizes with the people and is sorry that they have to be treated in such fashion but, hopefully, other developers will take notice and prevent the same situation from happening to citizens of their'subdivisions. Mr. Horner states that he would encourage the developer to put in the water connections as it would be beneficial to all concerned, if it were done properly. ~te states that the developer will have to service these roads also for one year after the Highway Department takes them into the State System. Mr. Myers states that he feels the developer should install the water connections now and that this phase of the work should not be prohibited. Mr. Mason states that he feels another motion should be made to hault the building and occupancy permits in the Subdivision because of the wording of the original resolution. Upon consideration whereof, and on motion of Mr. Horner, seconded by Mr. Myers, it is resolved that this Board withhold any occupancy and building permits in the Lake Genito Subdivision until such time as further action is taken by this Board. Ayes: Mr. Horner, Mr. Myers, Mr. Apperson, Mr. Krepela and Mr. O'Neill. On motion of Mr. Horner, seconded by Mr. Myers, it is resolved that Mr. Garland L. Rowsey, Jr. be granted an occupancy permit for Lot 45, Block N, Section C of Lake Genito Subdivision as he was under contract on May 17, 1974, before action was taken by the Board and that same is subject to the final and normal inspections by the administrative authority. Ayes: Mr. Homer, Mr. Myers, Mr. Apperson, Mr. Krepela and Mr. O'Neill. Mr. Burnett states that Wilson Trucking Company is requesting a roadway be built with industrial access funds. Mr. Covington has stated in writing that the road does not qualify. Mr. Covington inquires if the Board would like to take any action on Quaiff Lane. He states that the land has been rezoned and feels the Board should take this into consideration. Mr. Appe~son states that there are two houses presently on this road and that it is indefinite as to when the rezoned land will be developed. Mr. Apperson recommends this item be held until he has time to check into the situation. Mr. Burnett states that there will be a meeting on August 6, 1974, at which time the Highway Department will discuss Belmont Road from Falling Creek to Turner Road. Mr. Myers states that Mr. Ray August is applying for a building permit on Burge Avenue but there are some problems with drainage. On motion of Mr. Myers, seconded by Mr. Apperson, it is resolved that the Board authorize Mr. Horner and Mr. Burnett to sign a save harmless agreement with the Highway Department and give Mr. August the requested building permit. Ayes: Mr. Horner, Mr. Myers, Mr. Apperson, Mr. Krepela and Mr. O'Neill. Mr. Covington and the Board discuss the drainage problem of Mr. Burton on Woodpecker Road and who should handle the problem. Mr. Covington states that he feels a solution could be worked out'between the County and the Highway Department and promises to investigate the matter further. Mr.. O'Neill asks Mr. Covington if the County proceeds with plans to rent dumpsters, would the Highway Department be willing to help by laying gravel in the specified areas. Mr. Covington states that he is not sure but that he will investigate this request. Mr. Mason states that he has received a petition from Mr. George V.

He states that Day Realty has reduced the number of stories in lieu of the three originally planned. He states they were planning the extension of Evelyn Drive and now, at the suggestion of others, this road will not be built. He states that the residents of Bryan Ridge Subdivision are opposing this mainly because of their experiences with the Lake Tree Manor Apartment Complex which is a government subsidized developmenT. Mr. Bill Smith of Bryan Ridge Subdivision comes before the Board representing the. homeowners of the area. He presents the Board with a petition signed by 69 residents of this area. He states their objections To this development are that people with iow income will be moving in; that the area will be boxed in by apartments; property values will decrease; traffic, noise, fighting, the use of drugs and alcohol will increase in the area. Mrs. Walter Johnston comes before the Board and says that the trash in the area due to the Lake Tree Manor Apart- ment Complex is unbearable. She states that the community has gotten together and picked up trash and that she has even called the Police when she saw a pollution offense and they refused to do anything. Mr. Burnett inquires why nothing was done. She states that they wanted her to come to Police Headquarters and swear out a warrant and she did not have the time to do this so nothing was done. Residents present the Board with five bags of trash they have picked up.

Mrs. Andrews asks if the apartments are to be sewered by public utilities. Mr. Myers states, yes. She.inquires why the residents have not received it first. Mr. Homer states that sewer has just been made available to the area and the apartment development will have to pay for the construction of the sewer to the development and that the County will charge residents only the connection fees. Mr. Apperson states that he will have to oppose this rezoning because the one road access seems to endanger the safety of the residents of the development, he knows from experience that fences can be cut down, he does not believe in the mixture of developments on adjacent lands and he feels fire and emergency vehicles would have a rough time in the development. A gentleman in the audience states that the Planning Commission had turned this down twice and he sees no need for further consideration. Mr. O'Neill states that one factor in the Planning Commission's decision was the proposed Evelyn Drive extension and now this has been vacated. Upon consideration whereof, it is on motion of Mr. Myers, seconded by Mr. O'Neill, resolved that this rezoning request be granted with the two changes as amended along with the 16 conditions of the Planning Commission filed with the papers of this Board.
