Mr. Welchons presents the results of the sewer survey in Belmont Hills, West. He
states that the cost is approximately $12,203 and will serve five houses, one of
which is having septic tank probelms. Mr. Welchons states it will cost approxi-
mately $2,450 per house and Mr. Painter adds this is running higher than normal.
Mr. Painter states they have received a petition from the five persons requesting
the sewer. Mr. Horner states that the Board would like to approve sewer for every-
one but these homes seem to be on large lots and are experiencing no immediate
problems. He further adds that he would like Mr. Spencer to give Mr. Welchons a
report on Mr. Long's problem. Mr. Painter states that some money is available but
that the County has committed itself to others of an emergency nature. It is
generally agreed that this matter will be deferred until the next meeting.
Mr. Welchons states that the survey in the Victoria Hills and Bruce Farms area in
Chester has resulted in 43~% contracts being signed and returned.
Mr. Welchons states that the sewer survey in Deerfield resulted in 56.5% and that
the lots are very scattered. He states the cost will be approximately $300,000.
He adds that of the 69 homes in the area, 39 returned contracts but that a total
of t00 lots could be served if vacant lots are included, and this 100 includes
the 39 homes.
Mr. Welchons states that of the 27 homes on Aldridge Avenue, 18 have agreed to
sewer which represents 66 2/3%. He adds that this will cost more than usual as a
long outfall will be involved. He states that if vacant lots are included the
precentage would be 80%. Mr. Painter states that if vacant lots are to be included
· n these surveys something will have to be worked out regarding the monthly charges
as the revenue is needed. It is generally agreed that this matter be deferred
for two weeks.
Mr. Burnett states there is a problem with the Highway Department which would like
to purchase five acres for the widening of 1-95. He adds the land has been ap-
praised at $10,000 and that he feels the County should cooperate with them but
EPA may want the County to have a certain amount of land if the expansion of the
.Falling Creek Sewage Treatment Plant is approved. He states that EPA may want
the County t.o buy more land later and an alternative would be to see if the High-
way Department could acquire the needed land from adjacent landowners.
Mr. Painter states that we have 45 acres now and by going with h he ulitmate design
there is no land to spare. Mr. Burnett suggests that the County cooperate with
the Highway Department if they will agree to give a like amount of land if EPA
wants the County to safeguard the Sewage Treatment Plant. Mr. Painter states that
the County did have to buy land at the Proctor's Plant to act as a buffer, but the
highway could act as the needed buffer.
Mr. Myers states that we could condition it so that we could negotiate if and when
EPA asks for it. Mr. Horner inquires if EPA should be contacted as a matter of
courtesy. Mr. Burnett states he feels we could give the Highway Department the
land with the stipulation attached. Mr. Horner states that we could give the
right-of-e ntr y and state that we may have to exchange land later. Mr. Painter
states that the County may have to give up the easement across the toll road. Mr.
Homer states that he does not want the County to lose anything it has already.
On motion of Mr. Apperson, seconded~by Mr. O'Neill, it is resolved that the High-
way Department be given a right-of-entry as requested and the matter of land need
be investigated further.
Ayes: Mr. Horner, Mr. Myers, Mr. Apperson, Mr. Krepela and Mr. O'Neill.
Mr. Painter states that there is a small delegation from Bon Air regarding the
proposed sewer for the area. Mr. Sam Wagstaff and Mrs. Godsey come before the
Board stating that they feel this sewer line should be installed because of the
health problems the failing septic tanks are causing. Mr. Krepela states that
Whose for and against the sewer in the area are very close. Mr. Logan comes be-
fore the Board and states that he represents the people in the area who are op-
posed to the sewer. Mr. Welchons states that 10 signed contracts for sewer and
11 have not. Mr. Wagstaff adds that Dr. Carwell asked him to tell the Board that
he does want sewer. Mr. Logan states that the residents are not opposed to sewer,
but the location of the line going in the rear of the property in lieu of the
streets and also some feel they are being pressured to sign the contracts. He
asks the Engineering Department to design a new proposal moving the line. Mr.
Welchons states that they designed the line to the middle of the properties to
save as many buildings, sheds, trees, etc. as possible, then they designed it 10
ft. from the property lines and that they have redesigned this line a third time to
prevent condemning as many as possible. Mr. Logan inquires how many ~wers are
bad. Mr. Burnett states that these septic tanks have been in the area for the
past 25 years and that the entire area was condemned at one time because of this
problem and that since the contractor is in the area now, it woul~ be better eco-
nomically to proceed with the line construction.
Mr. Burnett asks Mr. Logan how long he has lived in the area and he replies since
August. Mr. Burnett states that FHA would not supply money for loans in this area
at the time they had condemned. Mr. Logan inquires why the County is going through
the backyards instead of the streets. Mr. Welchons states that the cost would be
less, they do not know where in the streets it could go and because they can put
one line in to serve the area in lieu of two. Mr. Logan states that by giving
the easements the lots will be smaller than they presently are and building would
be prohibited. Mr. Burnett states that building is not permitted on lot lines
anyway.
Mr. Logan inquires how often the County will return to the property for mainte-
nance. Mr. Burnett states that once the line has been installed, very seldom do
they have to return for repairs. Mr. Logan states that the letters received by
those in the area states that if 70% do not sign the contracts, this will fail
and it will not be discussed further. Mr. Burnett asks for a copy of the letter
and adds further he does not think it says exactly this. Mr. Logan inquires how
many condemnations will be needed. Mr. Welchons states two. Mr. Logan asks for
condemnation explanation and Mr. Hornet explains the process. Mr. Myers states
that once tanks start failing they go very fast. He states that the Health De-
partment would condemn and everyone would soon be gone. He further asks Mr. Logan
to consult his conscience and states that sewer will upgrade his property and the
value of same. Mr. Krepela states that this area is in a very enviable position
at this time. He adds that most areas need 70% to receive sewer and only 50% is
being required here and that the property will increase in value between $2,000-
$5,000 which is not being unfair to the residents. He states further that he is
sorry bullish tactics were used in the area in the process of trying to pressure
people to sign by some of the people in the area.
Mr. Welchons states that they have redesigned the line three times and that they
have made the last design doing as little damage as possible to those who are not
in favor of the sewer line and putting the larger part on those who are. He states
that they will have to get these larger easements from these people before they
can proceed.
Upon consideration whereof, it is on motion of Mr. Krepela, seconded by Mr. Apperson
resolved that the Engineering Department proceed with the laying of sewer lines in
the area provided the larger easements for the redesign of the line are obtained.
Ayes: Mr. Hornet, Mr. Myers, Mr. Apperson, Mr. Krepela and Mr. O'Neill.
Mr. Painter states that he has received a letter from Reynolds Met requesting
no be connected to sewer and that there will be no industrial wastes from this
plant which they are remodeling. It is generally agreed that this matter will
be deferred until later in the meeting.
Mr. Painter states that he has received a letter from the U. S. Air Force Recruit-
ing Division stating that they are interested in using one or more water tanks in
~he County for advertising. Mr. Horner inquires if the Board feels this should
be investigated. Mr. Krepela inquires if there are any defaced tanks that could
be used. Mr. Horner states that he would like to cooperate with the Federal Gov-
ernment but is not sure how citizens in the County would react.
It is generally agreed that this matter be deferred for further study.
Mr. Painter states that they~have received nine bids for the Bailey Bridge Pumping
Station and that they range from $690,000 to $914,000. He adds that this is to be
built by Brandermill but that the County had stated they would cooperate until the
bonds were sold. It is generally agreed that this matter should be deferred.
Mr. Prosise states that he has talked with Mr. Covington regarding what work was
needed on Featherstone Road and that Mr. Timmons is unable to complete the neces-
sary work and that he was to write a letter stating same but the letter has not
been received. It is generally agreed that this matter will be deferred.
On motion of Mr. Krepela, seconded by Mr. Myers, it is resolved that the contract,

that under the reduced budget possibly a frame building could be constructed. Mr.
Burnett states that if the County were ever to get by on a cheaper type building,
this would be the program on which to start: that with the present budget of ap-
proximately $226,000, a metal building could be erected with adequate space pro-
vided for future expansion.

In Matoaca Magisterial District, Shiloh Baptist Church requests the rezoning from
Agricultural (A) to Residential (R-7) of a 15.2 acre parcel lying approximately
150 ft. west off the south line of Hickory Road and being located approximately
600 ft. west of the intersection of Matoaca Road and Hickory Road. T.M. 173-10
(1) 11 (Sheet 48).
Mr. Balderson states that this case was deferred from the Board meeting on Novem-
ber 27, 1974, to see if the Church could come to a mutual understanding. Mr.
Robert Cooley, III, attorney representing the Shiloh Baptist Church, states that
they are here again requesting to rezone the area in the rear of the Church and
would appreciate any consideration the Board would give. He states that the
Church held a meeting on January 20th and voted 29 to 23 in favor of rezoning the
land for the development of a subdivision and presents a petition for rezoning
and minutes of the Church meeting on the 20th of January. Mr. Charlie L. Cook,
Ms. Irene Brown, Ms. Ida Merritt, Mr. Robert F. Newhart, Ms. Dorothy Thomas and
Ms. Rose B. Goode of Shiloh Baptist Church come before the Board in favor of re-
zoning. The Rev. Joseph H. Goode, a resident in the area states that he feels
the zoning would be good for the growth~ the people and the Church.
Mrs~ Jacquelyn Randolph, representing the people of the Church membership who are
opposed, states that this matter has not been handled in the proper manner, in
that the pastor has held unofficial meetings to decide the matter, the minutes
which have been presented are not a true copy, the people have not been informed
fully of all aspects of this rezoning, etc. Mr. Mike Callen presents a petition
from the community consisting of 133 signatures against this rezoning because
there would be too many homes in a small area. Mr. Harold Thomas presents another
petition with 48 signatures of community residents against rezoning. Mr. George
Ray comes before the Board and states that there are approximately 200 residents
and Church members opposed to this rezoning, that the homes will be on less than
15.2 acres after roads, ditches, etc. are constructed, it would devalue the homes
in the area and the children will have no place to play.
Mr. Cooley states that he feels most reasons given against the rezoning are in-
valid since the Planning Department recommended approval, they should have and
he feels they did take all this into consideration.
Mr. O'Neill states that anyone can apply for FHA money to build a home in the
area and that it does not depend on this subdivision being approved. He adds
further that only 15% of these homes can be retained and that anyone can come in
and apply for these homes.
Mr. Krepela inquires if this application is valid since the Church did not vote
on same by a two-thirds vote that Mrs. Randolph referred to as written in the
Church by-laws. Mr. Mason states that the resolution passed by the Church does
give the Church the right to be heard and a two-thirds vote is not required, if
it is not so stated in the Constitution of the Church.
Mr. O'Neill states 'that the petitions which have been presented should not be
considered because some are too far away but he does feel enough planning has not
been done by the County Planning staff and the Church planning staff, the sewer
money that he thought was available is not available, he feels the Church has not
settled the conflict within itself and other problems raised at this meeting have
not been solved.
On motion of Mr. O'Neill, seconded by Mr. Krepela, it is resolved that this re-
zoning application be and it hereby is denied.
Mr. Mason states that this motion would mean that this case for the same rezoning
cannot come back before the Board for a year.
A vote being taken:
Ayes: Mr. Myers, Mr. Krepela and Mr. O'Neill.
Abstention: Mr. Apperson.

Mr. Balderson states that the Planning Commission recommended approval of the par-
cel of land which is outside the Airport sound distribution limits and recommended
deferral of the remainder until the February 18th meeting of the Planning Commis-
sion. Mr. Apperson inquires how they arrived at the sound distribution limits for
this area. Mr. Balderson states that the consultants did so. He states their con-
cern is to reduce the density in the sound area and they may recommend that the re-
mainder be zoned differently. The applicant states that he does not want this area
