Vice Chairman J. Robert Russell called the meeting to order.
Mr. Ronald Berg, Frederick County Planner, briefly described the Land Use Plan
and the various considerations the Planning Commission had observed in formulating
this plan.
He explained the goals the plan is designed to accomplish and the objectives of
each. Mr. Berg stated that the Land Use Plan would serve as a guide to the develop-
ment of Frederick County to the year 1990.
Mr. Keith Williams asked if there were any comments from the audience.
Mr. Joseph Massie appeared before the Board and stated that he had been unable
secure a copy of the Land Use Plan for study and therefore felt action on the same
should be withheld until such time as sufficient copies are available for public re-
view and study.
Mr. Berg stated that there are three copies of the plan in circulation and one
copy in his office for public review.
Mr. Zieger appeared before the Board and stated that he had on several occasions
attempted to obtain a copy of the proposed land use plan for study and has not been
able to do so. He requested that the Board make available copies of the plan to the
public for review and study before it is adopted.
Mrs. Ann Nuri stated that she felt any citizen who wanted a copy of the plan
could obtain one. She stated that she had borrowed a copy of the plan and had it
xeroxed for her own personal use and that any other citizen could have done the same
had they so desired.
Mr. Kenneth Stiles stated that when the meeting at Stonewall School was held to
discuss the land use plan, the people had reqeusted that copies of the plan be made
available to the public and this had not been done.
Mr. Russell stated that he felt the people should have a copy of the Plan for
study but he felt that inasmuch as the hearing had been convened comments should be
taken on the proposed plan.
Mr. Robert Mitchell, Attorney, appeared before the Board representing several
residents who own land west of Route 37 and stated that the landowners had indicated
their concern about the proposed designation of this property from the beginning of
the preparation of the land use plan. He stated that a petition had been presented
previously to the Planning Commission in opposition to the property being designated
agricultural in the proposed plan.
Mr. Mitchell then read Section 15.1 -446.1 of the Code stating that this was the
enabling statute for the enactment of a land use plan. He stated that the people he
represented did not feel the guidelines of this statute had been followed in the pre-
paration of the plan insofar as trends of growth are concerned. He further stated
that the property owners felt this property should be designated residential inasmuch
as it is a growth area as set forth in the guidelines contained in the State Code.

Mr. Mitchell stated that the property owners had engaged Mr. Hugh Dussenger, a
land development engineer, to conduct a study of this area and he had reported that
based on drainage and all other factors, this area is appropriate for residential de-
velopment.
'
He then introduced Mr. ° Rosser Payne, a professional planner who had been engaged
to study this area on behalf of the residents. Mr. Payne appeared before the Board
and presented his report stating that the area studied was approximately ten square
miles. He briefly reviewed the report and stated that it would appear to him, from a
planning point of view, and under the statutes quoted by Mr. Mitchell,.that this area
would be best suited for residential development rather than agricultural use as set
forth in the proposed plan.
•
Mr. Madigan asked Mr. Payne if he had determined how much of the area would be
developed residentially and how much would be developed commercially and Mr. Payne
stated that he had not made this a part of his study but that certainly there would b
some commercial and industrial development in the area. Mr. Payne further stated tha
the request made by the residents was that the area be predominantly residential.
Mr. Madigan stated that he was not in favor of having a residential community an
industrial areas located in a hodge podge manner.
Lot size in the agricultural district was discussed.
In the.rural community section, the recommendation setting forth that no change
•
be made in the County Subdivision practice of exempting five acre lots and family
tracts and developments with lots smaller than five acres will be provided central
water and sewer service and streets the expense of the developer was discussed at
length.
Mr. Lang Gordon stated that the plan could be amended and would be reviewed in
five years and that adjustments could be made whenever necessary.
Mr. Garland Cather appeared before the Board representing residents in the Round
Hill area and presented petitions containing 120 names setting forth points of the
plan the residents are opposed to. He stated that the residents felt that Round Hill
•
should be included in the Community Center Section set forth in the plan inasmuch as
they are in the same drainage area discussed by Mr. Payne. He further stated that
they also felt there were not enough copies of the plan available to the public for
study. He described the Round Hill community and stated that they felt they deserved
equal treatment with the other community centers in Frederick County.
In the Highway Development District, the 400 foot road frontage requirement was
discussed at length.
Mr. John Pickeral appeared before the Board and stated that he also felt there
were not enough copies of the plan available to the public. He urged the Board to re-
•
duce the forth
sixty square miles set for development inasmuch as he felt this was to(
large an area for development and would be detrimental to the people of Frederick
County. He requested the Board to review the plan and consider the reduction of this
proposed development area and to retain the five acre lot requirement set forth on
Page 24 of the plan.
Mr. Sam Cravotta appeared before..the`Board and stated that he felt..the proposed
'
land use plan was a good thing and that some politically and economically influential
were objecting to it because they have land lose it
people speculated on and might on
should the plan be adopted. He stated that he did not feel people of political and
economic influence should be allowed to delay or undo such plans and politics should
be left out of the matter completely.
Mr. Delmar Robinson appeared before the Board and stated that the residents of
910
the area to which Mr. Cravotta eluded were requesting the addition of ten square miles
to the development district and they were not land speculators but had owned property
in this area for a number of years. He further stated that they based their request
on the fact that this area is logically located to expand around the perimeter of the
City of Winchester and they felt they should be allowed to use the land for its best
,
use.
Mr. Joseph Massie stated that he objected to the requirement for central water
and sewer on lots less than five acres inasmuch as it would not be feasible and would
prohibit the small developer from developing his property. He cited a case in the
State of Pennsylvania where the courts had held that three acre lots were too large
and stated that should this requirement for five acre lots be adopted he felt the
County would find-itself in a law suit which it could not win.
•
Mr. Madigan asked Mr. Massie what size lots he felt should be required and Mr.
Massie replied that he felt the lot sizes set forth in the County ordinance were suf-
ficient.
Mr. Charles Orndorff appeared before the Board and stated that several people ha
attended the public meetings held on this plan and had made suggestions which had not
been incorporated into the plan. He objected to the five acre requirement stating
that he intended to give each of his children a lot from his farm on which to build a
,
home and under this requirement he must give them each five acres or more.
•
Mr. Berg stated that family tracts were exempt from this requirement.
There followed a lengthy discussion as to whether it would be discriminatory to
exempt family tracts from this requirement and apply it to developers.
Mr. Russell suggested that the hearing be delayed in order that the plan might be
made available to the public for review and study.
Mr. Manuel DeHaven stated that he had objected to several points in the plan and
would suggest that on Page 28 of the plan the lot size should be three acres and the
road frontage 300 feet.
Mr. Madigan, as a member of the Planning Commission, moved that because of the
input received from the public at this hearing, 500 copies of the Land Use Plan be
•
made available to the public; that the Planning Commission be requested to take the
recommendation of the addition of ten square miles west of Route 37 into the resident-
,
ial development district into consideration; that the zoning ordinance be followed as
to lot sizes and water and sewer dealing with the development of lots smaller than
five acres as it is not feasible to water and sewer large lots; that consideration be
given to the 400 foot road frontage requirement; and that Round Hill be included as
one of the Community Centers in the proposed plan.
Mr. DeHaven seconded Mr. Madigan's motion.
•
The motion was defeated by the following recorded vote: Richard F. Madigan, Aye;
Manuel DeHaven, Aye; Keith Williams, Nay; Langdon Gordon, Nay; Frank Brumback, Nay,
and Elmer Venskoske, Abstaining.
Mr. Madigan then moved, as a member of the Board of Supervisors, that the Land
Use Plan be sent back to the Planning Commission and that the Commission be directed
to rework the plan with the ten square miles included as an urban development distric
;
that the lot sizes correspond with the zoning ordinance along with the road frontages;
that Round Hill be included in the plan as a Community Center; and that 500 copies of
,
the plan be made available to the public.
Mr. Hodgson stated that he would not vote to direct the Planning Commission to
make these changes but would agree to send the plan back to them for their considera-
tion of the above recommendations.
Mr. Madigan agreed to amend his motion to request the Planning Commission to con.
sider the above recommendations contained in his original motion.

FREDERICK COUNTY SCHOOL BOARD REQUEST.FOR APPROPRIATION.FOR PURCHASE OF PROPERTY FOR
NEW HIGH SCHOOL - TABLED
Dr. Wright appeared before the Board and requested that the Board approve the
appropriation of $309,758.91 in the budget ear marked for building fund to the opera-
tional fund in order that the School Board might purchase the land they had taken an
option on a month ago next to the Apple Pie Ridge School for the construction of a ne
high school.
Mr. Madigan asked Dr. Wright what the school board planned to do with the land
that had been given to them on Route 50 West,
Dr. Wright stated that they planned to hold the land for future use.
Mr. Madigan asked Dr. Wright if he knew if the State Department was planning to
•
improve the access to the Apple Pie Ridge School or the site being considered for the
new high school, inasmuch as he felt the location of the site was dangerous as it is
now.
Dr. Wright replied that he had reviewed this site with Mr. King, but he could
say what the Highway Department would do in the next three or four years.
Mr. Madigan asked Dr. Wright if the School Board had considered the cost of exca
•
vation for this site in comparison mith the site that had been donated.
Dr. Wright replied that they did not have any figures on the excavation. He
ther stated that when they accepted the site on Route 50 they had received alot of
criticism. He stated that the School Board had taken all facts into consideration an
felt the site they had chosen was the best site of all the ones considered and that h
was not before the Board to discuss why this site had been chosen, but to get the ap-
proval of the transfer of funds. Dr. Wright stated that anyone who wanted to discuss
this with the School Board could come to one of the Board meetings.
Mr. Sandy asked if this particular site had been presented to the Planning Com-
mission.
Dr. Wright replied No.
Mr. Sandy stated that for good planning purposes he felt the schools should be
•
located where the people are.
Dr. Wright reminded Mr. Sandy that this school was not being built with just the
next year in mind, but rather the next forty to fifty years.
Mr. Sandy replied that the map proposed in the Land Use Plan_ goes_ through 19.90 a
he thought this was a good indication of what the development would be by this time.
Dr. Wright stated that a number of people from the Stephens City area had
•
ed the new site as they wanted a new high school in the southern part of the County.
He further stated that the Board had no intentions of building a new high school in
southern part of the county or having a two high school system.
sewer as well as the excavation cost between the Robinson site and the site on the
Mr. Madigan stated that he would like to see more facts on the cost of water and
Dther side of Sunnyside.
Mr. Sandy stated that he thought there should be a public hearing between the
School Board, the Board of Supervisors and the Planning Commission to discuss this
tter.
A lady from the audience asked why the School Board had not considered other lo-
[7
with property at a lower cost than the proposed site.
A lengthy discussion followed between Dr. Wright and citizens from the County
erning the site of the new school and what the citizens termed a lack of response
School board members to their questions and requests.
Mr. Donald Baughman stated that the School Board members were not responsible to
/.
the people as they are not elected by the people but are appointed by the Circuit
Court Judge. He further stated that the Board of Supervisors were responsible to the
people since they were elected by the people and felt the board should delay action ol'
a major decision such as this until the new board takes office in January.
Dr. Wright stated that the School Board was responsible to the people even
they were not elected by the people and that the School Board was in contact with
people than any member of the Board of Supervisors.
Mr. Solenberger appeared before the Board and stated he felt the Board of Super-
visors was shirking their responsibility in not reaching a final decision on this
school, inasmuch as they had agreed with the School Board in the past when this was
discussed as to the location of this new high school.
Several citizens stated that they were opposed to one large high school and felt
that a two school concept would be more beneficial to the students.
Manuel Semples appeared before the Board and urged their approval of the transfe
of funds inasmuch as the schools are already over crowded and action must be taken
very soon on the construction of a new school.
Mr. Cole stated that he thought major decisions such as this should be tabled uni
til the new board takes office as they would be the ones who would have to appropriat
the money.
There was a lengthy discussion regarding the use of James Wood as a high school
and Dr. Wright stated that James Wood is not adequate for a high school. He stated
that should this matter be delayed there was a good possibility that James Wood
have to go to a double shift in the very near future.
Mr. Hodgson moved to approve the resolution presented by Dr. Wright for the
priation of funds for the purchase of property for the construction of a new high
school. The motion was seconded by Mr. Cole.
Mr. Cole then moved to table Mr. Hodgson's motion until the first of the year
order that the new board might take action on this request inasmuch as they will
to appropriate the funds for this project.
Mr. Cole's motion was approved by the following recorded vote: Raymond C. Sand
Aye; J. Robert Russell, Aye; Dennis T. Cole, Aye; Richard F. Madigan, Aye; and
R. Hodgson, Nay; stating that the longer this matter is delayed the more expensive i
will become.

i
the course of this work the Editors will work into proper places
in the original Ordinances all amendments and shall delete from
the original Ordinances the provisions that have been expressly
repealed. Thus, each Ordinance will be made to reflect the last
word of the governing body in that particular instance.
2. The Charter, if any, shall also be brought up to date by working
into proper places all amendments thereto and such Charter shall
be included in the new Code.
3. The Technical Codes, such as the Building, Plumbing and Electri-
cal Codes, may be included or excluded at the option of the
County Officials. Any Technical Codes which the County wishes
•
to adopt by reference will be accommodated by the Edi.tor's draft-
ing an appropriate Ordinance to cover the situation.
4. The Ordinances shall be classified according to subject matter
so that all related Ordinances shall be grouped together to con-
stitute an individual chapter in the new Code manuscript. The
amendatory provisions shall be accorded their proper places and
the repealed, outmoded and antiquated provisions shall be elimin-
ated. This applies to the provisions that have been expressly
repealed and also to those which have been repealed by implica-
tion, but all such provisions thought to be repealed by implica-
tion first be brought to the attention of the County Attor-
ney together with explanations thereof and for a ruling thereon
,
by the County Attorney.
NOV
5. The Ordinances shall be edited for punctuation, grammar, and
style by the Company's Editors. If in any case a change in
substance of any Ordinance is thought possibly desirable, such
situation will be called to the attention of the County Attor-
ney with a statement of the reasons why such change may possi-
bly be desirable. No such change in the substance of any ex-
isting Ordinance shall be made unless the County Attorney has
first given his express approval. Likewise the Editors may sub-
mit to the County Attorney Ordinances of other localities with
which they are familiar, covering subjects not covered, or not
fully covered, by the existing Ordinances, but no such Ordinanc-
es shall be included in the Code except upon the direction of
the County Attorney. The County Attorney shall be free to ac-
cept wholly or in part any or all of the suggestions submitted
by the Company's Editors. The Editors shall not, without the
approval of the County Attorney, omit any Ordinances even though
they are believed to have been repealed or to have become obso-
lete.
6. The Ordinances shall be checked against the corresponding Laws
of the State, and any discrepancies between the Ordinances and
such State Laws, shall be called to the attention of the County
Attorney and changes made as he may direct.
7. The Ordinances shall also be checked against the decisions of
the Court of last resort of the State, and any cases declaring
any portion of such Ordinances unconstitutional, or construing
them, shall be called to the attention of the County Attorney
and changes made in the Ordinances as he shall direct. Refer-
ences to any cases construing Ordinances contained in the Code,
shall be made in the form of annotations to such Ordinances.
8. The Editors shall prepare accurate catchlines to the individual
sections of the Ordinances.
9. The Editors shall also prepare a frontal analysis to each indi-
vidual chapter of the Code.
10. Copious cross references and editorial footnotes shall be pre-
pared and carried in appropriate places throughout the Code.
11. A complete and comprehensive general index to the entire Code
shall be prepared by the Editors and included in the completed
Code.
12. Codification of the Ordinances shall include the handling of
all Ordinances passed by the governing body of the County of
Frederick, Virginia up to the time the Code manuscript is re-
viewed with.the County Attorney. Any Ordinances passed by the
governing body subsequent to the date of the execution of this
agreement, shall be forwarded from time to time to the Editor =.
ial Offices of the Company so that such provisions may be ac-
corded their proper places in the new Code manuscript. After

rezoning application.
He
stated that the
Board had r
ceived
copies of a
memorandum
of position prepared by
the
petitioners.
Mr. Tisinger
requested the Board to correct the fifth line in said statement to read "development"
area rather than "drainage" area.
Mr. Tisinger stated that the questions raised at the last public hearing had
before the Planning Commission and this was the third appearance before the Board and
that the petitioners had attempted to answer these questions as best they could in
their statement of position. He emphasized that the proposed development is at this
time a concept and should it be approved, the Board of Supervisors would have the con
tinuing policing authority of the development to see that the developers carry out th
project as they have promised to do. Mr. Tisinger stated that they had tried in good
faith to present the plans for this development and answer all questions. He request
ed a vote of approval on this rezoning request.

Mr. Cole asked what assurances the Board had that this would be a recreational
subdivision as opposed to a residential subdivision.
Mr. Rosser Payne answered that they could not guarantee that 338 of this subdivi
sion would be recreational, 338 would be residential and 338 would be retirement as
set forth in their projections but that these figures were based on studies made of
'
other recreational developments very similar to the proposed one in similar areas. H
further stated that the intent of the developers is to construct a recreational subdi
vision and that in the recreational subdivisions studied, the number of permanent hom
s
was far less than 338 including the two located in Frederick County. Mr. Payne ex-
plained the process of reassessment of the property including three reassessments witi-
in a 10 year period. He then explained the taxing of the residential lots in the sub -
division should it be approved.
•
Mr. Cole stated that he felt the location of the property would make it conduciv
to a permanent subdivision and he did not feel it could be compared with The Summit
and Shawneeland. He then asked if an environmental impact study had been made on thi
development.
Mr. Tisinger stated that an environmental impact study had not been made inasmuc
as the ordinance does not require it.
if breakdown to how many acres would be
'
Mr. Sandy asked there was any as platted
in the first section submitted for approval and Mr. Tisinger answered that the subdi-
•
vision would be developed in sections but the number of acres in each section had not
yet been developed. He stated that when the master plan is presented for approval th
deed of dedication would be presented including the restrictions.
Mr. Sandy stated that if the subdivision is developed in sections the Board woul
have some control over the method of development.
Mr. Mason Larwood stated that considering the alternatives, this project seems t
be the most feasible approach but he felt there must be continuing monitoring by the
County in order to insure that the intent of the R -5 zoning district is adhered to.
Mr. E. E. Bayliss stated that he was in favor of this project and that he felt i
was very well located and would be most successful.
•
Mrs. Ann Nuri stated that she felt the property would lose its beauty if it is
developed in 1/2 acre lots. She stated that there is ample property to develop the
'
project into 5 acre lots thereby preserving the natural beauty of the area. Mrs. Nur
stated that she felt the developers should request rezoning and develop perhaps sever
al hundred acres initially to see if the project is successful. Mrs. Nuri stated tha
she was opposed to rezoning of this magnitude.
Mr. Joseph Athey stated that he felt the Board should consider the fact that our
natural beauty is disappearing through development in Frederick County.
•
Mrs. Margaret Starliper asked if the impact of this development would require an
other school and Mr. Sandy answered that it could and this was why the Board was so
concerned about the type of homes constructed inthe development.
Mr. Madigan stated that he had conducted an impact study on this proposed develo
-
ment and when it totally sold out there will be 49.35 children. He stated that th
lake and other recreational amenities and the security force provided by the subdivi-
sion would - create less impact on County services of this type. He further stated tha
he could see less impact on our welfare program inasmuch as the people moving into
,
this development would not be in the low income category, and that he felt the develo
-
ment would produce a high revenue for the County.
Mr. Madigan stated that he did not see how the Board could prove that it would
not be a recreational subdivision. He then presented his projections of revenue for
.57
the County from this proposed development through the years 1979 -1989. He stated tha
it was important to rebuild the County tax base and that the best income producing
properties the County has are the two recreational subdivisions now located here. He
pointed out residents iiv these recreational subdivisions pay six times the
amount other County residents pay for the services they receive from the County.
Mr. Madigan further stated that if the County did not have these two recreati
subdivisions, we would be paying 20 cents more per hundred on our taxes and the inc
in this County could not stand a big tax increase.
Mr. Cole stated that he did not feel the Board knew enough about the proposed de',
n
LJ
velopment to make a decision at this time. He further stated that he had talked with
several people in his district and that some saw it as a recreational subdivision but
the majority saw it as a residential and the impact of an additional 9000
people in this County over the next few years would be quite significant.

MR. J. B. TREJBROWSKI ADDRESSES BOARD RELATIVE TO ZONING OF CAMELOT RESTAURANT
Mr. J. B. Trejbrowski appeared before the Board and stated that he was the oper-
ator of the Camelot Restaurant in Stephens City and recently had constructed an addi-
tion_to the restaurant. He stated that there is a question as to whether or not live
entertainment and dancing can be held on the premises. Mr. Trejbrowski stated that
•
when the restaurant was constructed the property was zoned B -2 but when the new zonin
ordinance and map was adopted the property was zoned B -1. He stated that the ordinance
was vague as to whether or not dancing is permitted under the B -1 or B -2 categories.
Mr. Cole stated that under the B -2 category a dance hall is permitted but re-
quires a public hearing and conditional use permit.
Mr. Berg stated that this is correct and then read the section of the B -2 catego
y
governing this operation.
Mr. Sandy advised Mr. Trejbrowski that the proper method for him to follow would
•
be to apply for a rezoning to the B -2 category and then a public hearing could be hel
on the conditional use permit for a dance hall operation.
Mr. Trejbrowski thanked the Board for their advice on this matter.

BE IT RESOLVED, That the Board of Supervisors of the County of Frederick, Vir-
ginia, does herein rescind the resolution passed by this Board on October 8, 1975,
wherein the request of the Frederick County School Board for an appropriation of funds
•

The above resolution was passed by the following recorded vote: J. Robert Russel,
Aye; Dennis T. Cole, Aye; Donald R. Hodgson, Aye; Richard F. Madigan, Nay; and Raymond

REQUEST OF FREDERICK COUNTY SCHOOL BOARD FOR APPROPRIATION OF FUNDS FOR PURCHASE OF
PROPERTY FOR CONSTRUCTION OF NEW'HIGH SCHOOL - APPROVED
Mr. Cole moved to approve the request of the Frederick County bchool Board for a
appropriation of funds in the amount of $309,758.91 for the purchase of property for
•
the construction of a new high school, as presented to the Board on October 8, 1975,
by Dr. Wright.
Mr. Madigan stated that he had persuaded a man to give acres to the School
Board for the construction of a new high school and if they had asked for sixty acres,
they could have had sixty acres. He added that there was no conception of what the
excavation of the proposed site might cost or what problems might be encountered with
the land, that the access to the property was not conducive to entrance and exit by
school buses that the School investigated
and Board had not fully the watering and
sewering of the donated property as opposed to the proposed site. Mr. Madigan stated
that inasmuch as this project is of such great magnitude he felt the Board should be
fully advised of what the plans are before they are asked to appropriate money. He
pointed out that when the Apple Pie Ridge School was built over a year ago there was
59
+i
no sewer service available and sewage is still being hauled from that school.
Mr. Hodgson stated that this was not the fault of the School Board.
Mr. Cole stated that he had spent two hours with Mr. Roscoe Bowers, a member of
the School Board, and they had discussed the water and sewer service to both the pro-
posed site and the donated property quite extensively.
Mr. Madigan stated that the Chairman had requested a joint meeting between the
School Board and the Board of Supervisors in order to discuss this project and this
request was ignored completely. He further stated that he felt the people should
some input into this matter.
Mrs. Margaret Starliper asked if the donated property could be sold and the pro-
ceeds applied to the purchase of the proposed site and Mr. Sandy stated that this
could not be done inasmuch as the donation stipulated that the land be used for an
educational facility.
Mr. Cole stated that the action he proposed in his motion would not appropriate
the money for a new school but just the purchase.of the proposed site; that the money
for the new school would be appropriated by the new Board and this would be a decisic
they must make. He added that this motion would allow the School Board to meet the
option on the proposed site.
Mr. Scothorn asked why we need this much land and why it is so expensive. Mr.
Hodgson stated that if the proper amount of land had been purchased when James Wood
was built we would not need to build another school now.
Mr. Collins stated that the people felt the Board of•Supervisors was the only
buffer they had to prevent the School Board from purchasing this property and he felt
sure that if the people knew the matter was going to be discussed tonight, the
room would be full of citizens in opposition to this proposal. He further stated tha
he felt property could be bought for.less than the 4000 dollars per acre the proposed
site will cost. Mr. Scothorn stated that the people are concerned about the two
concept and he urged the Board to delay this decision until further information is re.
ceived.
Mr. Cole stated that thero was no reason to delay this decision when all the
other major decisions are being made, such as Wheatlands Subdivision which would cre-
ate 9,000 additional people in the County.
A gentlemen in the audience stated that he had moved to this area from Fairfax
County because he could not afford the taxes there. He urged the Board to consider
this matter, along with other projects of this magnitude, very carefully so that Frec
erick County would not be put in the financial position some of the cities in our
country are now experiencing.
Mr. Cole stated that any project of this magnitude could be put on a referendum
for the people to decide should the Board so direct. He further stated that he did
not feel the School Board would change its mind on the proposed site and this way
there would be nothing tabled until the first of the year for the new Board to decide
He further stated that according to Mr. Roscoe Bowers there was not another piece of
property around any better than the proposed site.
Mr. Dean Nuri asked why the proposed site, which is a rocky hilltop, is worth so
much money when the property across the road sold for $850 per acre.
Mr. Cole stated that no one liked the price but that is not the point; the loca-
Ition is the point.
Mrs. Starliper asked if there had been a soil survey made of the property or an
lappraisal by two orxthree appraisors and Mr. Madigan stated that to his knowledge
]neither of these things had been done.

Mr. Collins stated that he felt the number of questions raised at this meeting
should indicate to the Board that this matter should be delayed until more facts are
Ireceived.
Mr. Hodgson stated that a new school is needed now and the Board must face up toy
this fact.
Mr. Madigan moved to table Mr. Cole's motion until the November 26, 1975,
lof the Board in order that additional information could be obtained on the proposed
site.
Mr. Madigan's motion to table was defeated by the following recorded vote: Ray -1

ZEIGER SUBDIVISION BOND - APPROVED
Mr. Leon B. Zeiger appeared before the Board and stated that in the subdivision
63
he is currently building he is now to the stage where he is ready to put in 1200 feet
91YXICI
of streets or roads. He stated that the amount decided upon as surety by the subdi-
vision authorities comes to $18,662.55. Mr. Zeiger stated that he had discussed this
matter with the Farmers and Merchants Bank and based on his net worth, his assets wit
the bank, etc. the Farmers and Merchants Bank had prepared a letter, under seal, as
follows to provide surety for the above road construction:
October 30, 1975
Mr. Lawrence R. Ambrogi
Commonwealth's Attorney- Frederick County
Winchester, Virginia 22601
Dear Mr. Ambrogi:
Please consider this letter, signed under seal, as our guarantee to
Frederick County for funds in the amount of $18,662.55 to meet the surety
requirements necessary for Mr. Leon B. Zeiger to proceed with the construct-
ion of roads for Section VI, Zeiger Subdivision.
This guarantee shall be for one year from this date or until such prior
time as we have been notified by the County that the work has been completed
satisfactorily.
Sincerely yours,
/s/ Richard J. Rosenberger
Richard J. Rosenberger
Senior Vice President

Mr. Zeiger stated that the purpose of his appearance before the Board was to re-
quest that the Board accept this letter as surety for the construction of the roads it
his subdivision inasmuch as the letter was irrevocable and under seal. He stated that
it bothered him as to why the Board would question the assets of the Farmers and Mer-
Bank as surety for $18,000.
Mr. Cole stated that he did not feel that anyone was questioning the assets of
Farmers and Merchants Bank but he was concerned about the one year time limit set
forth in the letter. He advised Mr. Zeiger that after the roads are completed, he
st maintain them for an additional one year before he can request that they be tak
into the highway system.
Mr. Zeiger stated that this time limit was based on the contract that the County
required stating that the roads would be completed within twelve months and the letter
from the bank was in accordance with that contract. He further stated that if for any
unforseen reason the time limit should be extended or delayed he would be glad to get
a modified letter extending the time for any period necessary but he felt the letter
certainly tied in with his committment to the County.
Mr. Madigan asked how much the bond was and Mr. Zeiger answered it was in the
amount of $18,662.55.
Mr. Cole asked Mr. King if he was correct in assuming that this bond would not
the same as the one required by the Highway Department and Mr. King stated that this
would be a performance bond for the County and the Highway Department would re-
e a bond for workmanship, materials, etc.
Mr. Zeiger stated that he had consulted with the two leading engineers in the
ty, one of which would construct these roads, and they would not be done by a fly-
contractor.
Mr. Cole stated that he did not feel the Board should accept anything but a bond
t we know is good security for the County and he is not in favor of the letter pre-
isented, especially in light of the one year time limit.
Mr. Zeiger asked Mr. Cole if he would be satisfied if the letter was modified.
Mr. Cole stated that he would agree should the letter state until such time as
the roads are completed and accepted into the secondary road system.

Mr. Ambrogi stated that he had seen the letter and felt the County could collect
it.
Mr. Ambrogi stated that he did not know if the County could require a bond to
assure that the roads comply with State Highway Department requirements but the bond
• the County requires is for completion of the facilities and he felt both Mr. Zeiger
and the bank would agree to modify the letter to meet the requirements of the Board.
Mr. Madigan asked Mr. Ambrogi, suppose the man gives a bond to the County based
on his personal assets, etc., along with this letter, what is the difference between
this letter and a set aside letter such as one from Independence Mortgage Trust?
Mr. Ambrogi answered that he felt this letter is more secure than a set aside .

there. He further stated that he did not know the ratings of Independence Mortgage
Trust.
• Mr. Madigan asked Mr. Ambrogi what the rating of Farmers and Merchants Bank was
and Mr. Ambrogi stated that he did not know but he knew their general reputation in
the community and he felt more comfortable with Farmers and Merchants Bank than he
would a set aside letter from Independence Mortgage Trust because he did not know tha
much about them.

I the Highway Department would require a bond. He then asked Mr. King what type bond
the Highway Department would require and Mr. King stated that they require a corporat
• bond or cash.
Mr. Madigan asked Mr. King if he was correct in assuming that cash would be re-
ired if the developer is not incorporated and Mr. King stated this was correct or a
from a surety company.
Mr. Sandy stated that he had a question to the bank as to why they would extend a

Shackleford's.
Mr. Zeiger stated that if the assets are there they will guarantee anyone.
Mr. Sandy stated that he had been on the Baord for eight years and he had never
this done for anyone else.

RECONSIDERATION OF APPROVAL OF VIRGINIA LAKESIDE WATER AND SEWER COMPANY APPLICATION
FOR CERTIFICATE OF PUBLIC CONVENIENCE AND NECESSITY
Mr. William A. Johnston, Attorney at Law, appeared before the Board represen
Mr. Home Hack, Mr. Daniel Colaw, Mr. Herbert Shackleford, Mr. Fred L. Glaize, III
Mr. James Bowman, owners of land lying upstream in the same water -shed that is the
subject of Virginia Lakeside Water and Sewer Company's application presently pending
before the State Corporation Commission for a certificate of public convenience and
necessity.
Mr. Johnston pointed out the area in question on a map and stated that in 1969
Mr. Herbert Shackleford, in the corporate form of Lakeside Water and Sewer Company,
applied to this Board for approval under the Virginia Utilities Facilities Act for
360 acre parcel. He stated that the application and resolution was a part of a pro-
cedure at that time which apparently was to lead to a similar certificate now being
applied for but was never followed through. He further stated that in 1971 or 1972
Lakeside entered into a contract with Mr. Ralph Wakeman (Mr. Johnston stated at this
point that Mr. Wakeman is represented by Mr. Henry Whiting, and inasmuch as Mr. Whit-
ing had been called out of town he had been asked to represent Mr. Wakeman in Mr.
Whiting's absence) who owned a 400 acre tract east of the Shackleford land, the sub-
ject of that contract being that Mr. Wakeman was conveying to Mr. Shackleford an
downstream upon which a sewage treatment facility would be built to sewer both the
Wakeman and Shackleford land.
Mr. Johnston stated that by 1975 a company called Danac had acquired the S
ford property as well as the stock of the Lakeside Water and Sewer Company, and has
applied in proceedings now pending through the State Corporation Commission for a
certificate of public convenience and necessity to cover a service area encompassing
both the areas shown in red on the map but not including the land of Mr. Wakeman wh
it is under contract to sewer.
Mr. Johnston stated that this land lies in a water -shed as outlined in black on
the aforesaid map.
Mr. Johnston stated that in August of 1975, Danac, acting in behalf of a new
oration, Virginia Lakeside Water and Sewer Company, advised this Board that it was in
LPJLOJ
the process of applying to the State Corporation Commission for a certificate of pub'
lic convenience and necessity. He stated that they had requested approval of a resol-
ution which generally cited that in 1969 Mr. Shackleford had asked for and received
approval of his 360 acres; that they now have applied and you have approved said ap-
plication. Mr. Johnston stated that the applicant had cited, in their request for '
approval, the technical problem that the transfer of the property from Lakeside Water
and Sewer Company to Virginia Lakeside Water and Sewer Company created a technical
problem because technically you could not transfer the rights under the approval you
granted in 1969. Mr. Johnston then advised that on behalf of his clients and Mr.
Wakeman it is not merely a transfer of rights; that the application now being applied
for is asking for different land in part than asked for by Mr. Shackleford. He furt'-
er stated that the effect of granting this certificate of public convenience and nec
•
essity he did not believe was fully comprehended by the Board when they took action
in September of this year. Mr. Johnston stated that he did not believe the Board ha
in mind then that the effect of it was to yield up a part of the County's jurisdicti
I t
for water and sewering a part of the County's land. He stated that that is the effe
of it inasmuch as the statute under which they are proceeding states that the State
Corporation Commission will not and can not undertake to entertain such an applicatio
'
unless approval is given by the County's governing body, there being a Sanitation
Authority formed under the Authorities Act.
•
Mr. Johnston pointed out that if this applicant is granted a certificate they
would be certified for an area that does not include a huge area that they are under
a contract to serve which they have acknowledged is binding. He stated that this
certificate would put Mr. Wakeman in a position where his recourse would be through
civil litigation and if he should be successful could place the applicant in an un-
stable financial situation where they could not furnish the services which they are
under duty to furnish. Mr. Johnston stated that the application permits the cutting
out of the core of the drainage area making it economically unfeasible for Mr. Wake-
man and the landowners to the southwest to duplicate a treatment facility to provide
sewage treatment for their areas. He stated that they had presented their objection
•
to this application to the County Engineering Committee, the Planning Commission, an
the Sanitation Authority. He stated that the Engineering Committee had advised that
'
it would not appropriate for them to act upon this matter at this time inasmuch as its
was property before the Planning Commission and Sanitation Authority. He further st "t-
ed that the Planning Commission had adopted a resolution advising the Board that the
proper planning concept was to include the entire water -shed within the area to be
certified. He further stated that it was the position of the Sanitation Authority
that the applicant should honor any valid contracts they have, and that they endorse •
the Planning Commission's concept that in this area the entire water -shed should be
the subject of the study and that expansion should be based on feasibility.
Mr. Johnston stated that this is an area which has been a problem through the
years but the gentlemen he represents have never had an opportunity to speak on the
subject because there was never an application before the State Corporation Commissic
for a certificate. He stated that they had asked questions from time to time but
cooperation had not been forthcoming. He pointed out that proper planning requires ,
in this area a study which places this certified area in a proper planning posture.
Mr. Johnston advised that under the statute it is difficult to achieve the re-
sult you would like to achieve and that it was his understanding that neither his
clients nor the Board had the power to require the applicant to apply for any partic9,
lar area. He further advised that the power of the Board was limited to approving o
AI •
disapproving the plan presented by the applicant.
Mr. Madigan asked if the State Corporation Commission would designate the drain-
age area which Virginia Lakeside Water and Sewer Company would serve.
'
Mr. Johnston replied that as he understood it the State Corporation Commission
is under the same restriction as the Board, that is they can also approve or disap-
prove the plan presented by the applicant. He stated that you could point out to the
applicant that unless the plan includes a certain area it will not be approved. Mr.
Johnston stated that an outsider can not force his way into a service area and he fe.
this was to insure the feasibility of the utility. He advised that to permit this
certificate,-in the core area of a large piece of ground would have adverse effects
•
upon two or three times as much land outside that proposed service area as not to be
the proper planning answer to handle the area.
Mr. Madigan stated that he was under the impression that we just approve the col
cept and the State Corporation Commission designates the service area.
Mr. Johnston stated that they will ultimately approve it but it is my understanc
ing that they have the power only to say that they will not approve the application
'
unless it contains a certain area.
Mr. Madigan then asked if he was correct in assuming that as far as the Board
•
was concerned it is for us to see that the drainage areas are acceptable on the map
and etc. before it goes to the State Corporation Commission.
Mr. Johnston replied that this is correct and that was one thing that bothered
him when he began looking -into the matter after the Board acted on the application it
September. He added that within this framework there should be a record in the count
that would show what specific piece of land came out of the jurisdiction of the Fred-
erick County Sanitation Authority; that he had looked for such a record but could not
find one. He suggested that the Board was not focusing on that problem that way at
that time.
Mr. Cole stated that he did not feel Mr. Johnston's answer to Mr. Madigan's quee
•
tion wherein he stated that the Board of Supervisors designates the lines was incor-
rect.
Mr. Sandy stated that he had always been under the impression that if the Count}
had no plans to service a requested area, the Board would grant their approval of the
application.
Mr. Johnston stated that the way the statute is built, as he understands it, the
Board does not-have the power to require that a certain service area be applied for
but has the power only to approve or disapprove the plan as presented by the applicar
•
Mr. Sandy stated that the Code is written so that a hardship will not be placed
on an individual who is developing a water and sewer system and yet the landowners
are requesting that the entire area be taken into this application.
Mr. Johnston stated that he did not feel enough study had been made of the matte
to answer this question. He urged the county to study the situation much more closel
before giving up any of its jurisdiction in this area.
Mr. Johnston stated that he felt the Danac people were acting in good faith to
correct a problem which they did not create but the hardship created upon his clients
was that they did not have the legal right to speak out on this matter until now. He
further stated that if the Board did not rescind the approval given in September on
this application, his clients would be very limited in what they can do before the
State Corporation Commission inasmuch as all they are concerned with is your approval
of the application.

Mr. Sandy asked Mr. Johnston if his clients would be willing to pay monthly s
ice charges, insure a certain amount of connections, etc. should the inclusion of
their properties prove to be a hardship on the proposed utility and Mr. Johnston sta
ed that he felt they would be most anxious to study the options available in order t
provide good planning for the area.
Mr. Sandy then asked if a -plant is required to serve the whole area how would
this affect the people already in the area and Mr. Johnston stated he could not an-
swer this.
Mr. Sandy stated that he felt this certainly would be considered before the ap-
plicant would be required to take in the entire area. He further stated that before
Lakeside Estates was a reality, the landowners were offered contracts to participate
in the utility company and refused.
Mr. Herbert Shackleford stated that this was correct; all were invited but refu
Mr. Johnston stated that in the spring of this year Danac approached Mr.
and requested that he waive certain rights of -his and their negotiations ended in a
stand off and subsequently Danac had proceeded on its own without further consulta
with Mr. Wakeman.
Mr. Johnston suggested that inasmuch as the parties have not been in communica-
tion recently he felt the problem put them in a posture at the present time that
should be in order that a reasonable solution might be reached as the circumstances
indicate.
Mr. Johnston then presented a draft of a resolution stating that he felt this
would be the appropriate thing to do at this time said resolution rescinding the act
ion taken by the Board in September. He further stated that he felt this was the on
thing the Board could do under the statute until the matter could be studied. He
suggested that the action be rescinded and the state corporation advised of this fac
He suggested that then the parties could get together and discuss the matter. Mr.
Johnston advised the Board that a hearing before the State Corporation Commission is
set for December 30th and the action taken by the Board sets forth the approval of t
governing body as required.
Mr. Madigan asked if the applicant had approval of the designated area as
ed in red on the map inasmuch as he did not remember looking at any maps showing
r fe-WE
Mr. Johnston stated that the record is not clear in this regard and he did not
feel any one realized that the applicant was not applying for the same area previou
applied for by Mr. Shackleford.
Mr. Renalds stated that when the permit for the treatment plant was issued to
Lakeside Water and Sewer Company, the State Water Control Board approved the permit
with the stipulation that when a regional facility becomes available in the area, th
plant would be abandoned. He further stated that there was no service area designat
in the original.application in 1969 and consequently there was.nothing with which to
compare the present application.
Mr. Joseph Massie appeared before the Board representing Danac and stated that
had also represented Mr. Shackleford and Lakeside Water and Sewer Company in the pa
having prepared the application for a certificate of convenience and necessity for
Lakeside Water and Sewer Company which had never been followed through.
Mr. Massie stated that the position of the Board of Supervisors is to make the
initial determination on whether or not the application for an allotted territory,
be controlled by the State Corporation Commission, should be granted to the applican
C�

71
and whether or not it should be sent on to the State Corporation Commission.
He stated that Mr. Johnston contends that his clients have never had a forum in
which to state their objections and in answer to this matter he would point out that
the statute does not require a public hearing be held on the proposed application.
He added that the rules and regulations of the State Corporation Commission, in con-
sidering the application, require notification to all adjoining property owners and
to all persons being served by a public utility company of a hearing in Richmond be-
fore the State Corporation Commission where all views are considered.
Mr. Massie stated that the statute cited by Mr. Johnston (Section 56- 265.3) set-
•
•
ting forth the items to be considered in the application also states that the feasi-
bility of the entire project will be considered and further states that the public
interest shall be considered during the hearing before the State Corporation Commis-
sion and this will provide the forum Mr. Johnston seeks for his clients. He stated
that the law further provides that his clients have the right to appeal any decision
of the State Corporation Commission to the State Supreme Court should they so desire.
Mr. Massie advised that this is a highly technical matter involving a lot of en-
gineering, a lot of financial study and if the certificate is granted the fixing of
the territory and the fixing of the rates, the establishment of rules and regulations
by which the company will operate. He pointed out that the matter can not be conside
ed by the State Corporation Commission until it is sent down there with the approval
of the Board, thereby in order for the public interest to be considered it must be fo
warded to the State Corporation Commission.
Mr. Massie advised that when the application was filed in September it contained
a map showing the area sought to be certified. He pointed out that the Board of Sup-
ervisors is not involved in public utilities and how they operate and the only thing
they should be concerned with is whether or not the application should be sent to the
State Corporation Commission for a hearing and a final decision.
Mr. Massie stated that the Board of Supervisors had already approved the appli-
K J
•
cation and to deny it now and hold it in limbo for an indefinite period of time woul
cause the people living in Lakeside Estates Subdivision to be without any control of
the utility by the State. He stated that the State Corporation Commission governs
very tightly these public utilities and at the present time the residents in the sub
division are without the protection of this control. He further stated that there
are 110 connections to this utility and that the residents had purchased their lots
and built their homes with the understanding that they would be provided services
through a public utility.
Mr. Massie stated that Danac is trying to alleviate the problems which have bee
experienced by the residents over the past several years. He advised that if the
certificate is granted the utility company would be governed by the rules and regula
tions of the State Corporation Commission and should the company default the State o
Virginia could take over the operation to insure service to the people.
Mr. Massie stated that the area Mr. Johnston is talking about is totally unde-
veloped, and that the landowners had been invited originally to join in when the uti
ity was developed but refused to do so. He further stated that the service area is
limited from an engineering point of view and the stream where the effluent will be
discharged is not sufficient for the enlargement of the plant. He stated that the
plant was originally designed for 300 connections and it now has 110 connections, 25
or 26 of which are on Mr. Wakeman's land. fie stated that the stream does not have
enough flowing water to mix with the effluent as required by the State of Virignia t
allow for enlargement of the plant. He advised that this plant is an interim plant
72
to serve the people already there; this is not -a new development and can not look at
it with the same idea as a new planned community. He further advised that the sub-
division was begun in the 1960's and any ordinances relating to it had come into ex-
istence since its inception. He stated that the only way to correct the problems
which have existed over the years.is to have the application go on to the State Corp-
'
oration Commission for their consideration and decision.
Mr. Massie stated that with regard to the contract with Mr. Wakeman, this con-
tract was entered into on or about June 28, 1971 between Lakeside Water and Sewer Com
pany (Shackleford) and Mr. Wakeman for the company to serve a line of at least 24 lots
on Mr. Wakeman's land and that these lots are presently being served. Mr. Massie ad-
vised that Virginia Lakeside water and Sewer Company is a public service corporation
but does not have the certificate of convenience and necessity as required when ther
•
are 50 or more connections and are long overdue in getting this accomplished. He
further stated that the contract between Mr. Wakeman and the sewer company is some-
thing to be considered between those parties and not the Board of Supervisors, inas-
much as they are not lawyers or judges and are not involved in the interpretation of
contracts; that is a matter solely for the parties or the State Corporation Commission.
He stated that a service corporation can not go outside its allotted territory to
serve some one else without the consent of the State Corporation Commission and there-
'
fore would have to take in the Wakeman.property now being served and any extension of
•
the services would have to be determined between the two parties.
Mr. Massie stated that the remainder of the Wakeman land is another portion of
the contract which says it may take 1,500 to 2,000 feet of line to go into the Wake-
man property and it may take pump stations, etc. to serve this property. He further
stated that the real problem is in Subparagraph (f) of Paragraph (1) of the contract
because at this time Mr. Wakeman has not developed his land past the 25 or 26 lots
previously discussed but that this was something the parties must work out. He ad-
vised that if the plant is going to be upgraded to serve the people properly the in-
itial investment will be around $180,000 and no one is going to invest that much mone
on a sewer plant without some sort of security such as the State Corporation Commis- I
•
sion in regard to rates, rules and regulations and territory to be served. He stated
that at the present time the company is operating improperly because it does not have'
a certificate of public convenience and necessity and the people already there should
be considered first before undeveloped land is considered.
Mr. Madigan asked if there was anything improper about Lakeside Water and Sewer
Company entering into a contract with Mr. Wakeman before checking with the State Corp-
oration Commission.
Mr. Massie replied that it would have been improper for the corporation to have
•
done that if the allotted territory had been granted a certificate of public conven-
ience and necessity but this had not been done inasmuch as Mr. Shackleford had not
carried that application on to the State Corporation Commission after the Board ap-
proved it. He further stated that at a later time, without any allotted territory or
supervision of the State Corporation Commission, he agreed to take in another area
and it was his opinion that Danac, the present owner of the company, is bound to tak
in at least the territory that is now being served and if the contracts is valid to
take in whatever territory the contract calls for.
,
Mr. Massie stated that the application could be handled two different ways; Dan
c
could apply for a territory to include the twenty -four Wakeman lots now being served
as set forth in the contract; or they could apply for those twenty -four lots on an
additional application. He advised the Board that when the application was presented
73
1
to them in September there was a map attached. Mr. Massie said that there have been
communications between Mr. Wakeman and Danac in regard to the efforts to hook up to
the plant and that these communications would continue. He further stated that the
plant must serve Mr. Wakeman and the people in Danac's area and that the real forum
as far as the requirements of this corporation and the public interest are concerned
are, according to statute, with the State Corporation Commission.
Mr. Madigan asked if the State Corporation Commission would consider the drain-
age area as far as the public interest is concerned.
Mr. Massie answered that he felt they would consider anything they felt to be o
interest to the public.
Mr. Madigan asked Mr. Ambrogi,.the County Attorney, what his opinion was in thi
r 1
U
matter, having.heard both sides of the argument.
Mr. Ambrogi stated that he would like to see the complete facts and read the
U
statutes inasmuch as this is a complicated matter. He stated that both attorneys ha
given arguments based on their client's case. He further stated that he felt this
was something the Board would have to take under advisement for research and perhaps
an opinion from the Attorney General should be sought.
Mr. Sandy stated that he felt the Board might be entering into an area where
have no authority in the first place.
Mr. Ambrogi stated that this was his first impression but he would prefer to
search the statutes further before he made that statement.
Mr. Sandy stated that it appeared to him to be a problem between two parties
the service area, rules and regulations, rates, etc. would be determined by the Sta
Corporation Commission in Richmond.
Mr. Ambrogi stated that we definitely do not want to get involved in any functi
that is left up to the State Corporation Commission and within their jurisdiction.
Mr. Madigan asked if the State Corporation Commission just granted a certificat
•
1
of convenience and necessity to the land outlined in'red on the map, which is land
able to be developed and within the drainage area, and the Virginia Lakeside Utility
Corporation did not choose to service that area on their own and it was not feasible
for the Frederick County Sanitation Authority to service the area, would that not cr
ate problems as far as good planning, development, and utilization of the land to it
highest use for the County.
Mr. Ambrogi answered that it would the County's standpoint.
Mr. Madigan asked where should the problem be resolved, here or at the State
•
Corporation Commission such as an area that would be denied service because it was
not feasible for the Frederick County Sanitation Authority to serve it and yet the
Lakeside Water and Sewer Company just did not want to serve it.
Mr. Russell asked if a public hearing had been held in September when the Board
took action to consider the interest of the other people in the area.
Mr. Cole stated that this was not the responsibility of the Board; that a public
hearing would be held by the State Corporation Commission in Richmond to consider
these interests.
Mr. Madigan asked if the Board should not do the same thing before it is sent o
to the State Corporation Commission.
Mr. Ambrogi replied that he felt the Board should find out what obligations and
responsibilities the County has, if any, in this area.
Mr. Cole stated that there was nothing set forth in the statutes requiring the
Board to hold a public hearing.
Mr. Madigan stated that Mr. Johnston had read a section of the Code which sta
M
that plans must be submitted -to the governing body.
Mr. Massie read a section of the Code stating that if the application provides
the furnishing of water and sewer services within any approved subdivision in which
there has been created an authority for either or both of such purposes, pursuant to
Section 15.1 -1239 et seq of the Code of Virginia, the Commission shall not hold any
hearings on such application or issue any certificates for the allotment of territory
unless the application shall have first been approved by the governing body of the
political subdivision wherein the territory is located. He stated that he understood
this provision to mean that when the Board created the Frederick County Sanitation
Authority, they gave them the sole responsibility of providing water and sewer for tt
County, which at this time is an impossibility; therefore, when a private utility con
pany is created you must notify the Board of Supervisors of the.amount of land, where
it will be located, etc, and you are in effect taking this land out of the authority
of the Sanitation Authority to water and sewer. He stated that this gives the Board
control of where the Sanitation Authority will provide services.
Mr. Madigan asked if the Board would be in the same position here by allowing
the application to go through as submitted and disregarding the land in the drainage
area around it.
Mr. Massie stated that this would not be the case inasmuch as the resolution
passed by the Board stated that the Sanitation Authority will not be able in the rea-
sonable forseeable future to service this area.
Mr. Johnston stated that Mr. Wakeman has 25 to 30 lots within three feet of a
manhole which are outside the service area and an additional several acres of land
which can not be sewered from any kind of lift station. He stated that in the con-
tract being discussed Lakeside Water and Sewer Company does covenant to guarantee set
vice to the Wakeman property.
Mr. Madigan asked Mr. Wakeman how many lots he had now approved by the Board of
Supervisors outside the designated area and Mr. Wakeman answered 65.
Mr. Johnston stated that if the corporation had been certified they could not
have entered into the contract without the approval of the State Corporation Commis-
sion. Mr. Johnston stated that the contract had been filed with the Commission on
June 29, 1971 even though there was no action pending at that time for notification
purposes and that there had been a continuous filing before the Commission requestinc
that notice be given any time an application is filed. Mr. Johnston further stated
that there is nothing in the application now pending before the Commission that even
suggests that contract is a part of its contractual obligations. He stated that if
the Board - approves the application as it now stands, it will lead the Commission to
believe that the application is acceptable, and the public interest is being served.
Mr. Cole asked for a clarification of the recommendation of the Sanitation
Authority and Mr. Wellington Jones, Engineer- Director, stated that the Sanitation
Authority had recommended that Virginia Lakeside Water and Sewer Company honor any
valid contracts to which they are a party and that any further expansion should be
based on feasibility.
Mr. Johnston stated that he had understood the Planning Commission and Sanita-
tion Authority recommendations to mean that the entire drainage area be certified ant
that construction of facilities be based on feasibility.
Mr. Cole stated that his understanding of the recommendations was that the area
shown in red on the map should be area requested for certification and any further
area should be included according to feasibility.

Mr. Johnston stated that a substantial portion of Mr. Wakeman's land was a

included in the area requested for certification.
Mr. Cole asked how many acres of land would be opened up for residential deve
iment should the entire drainage area be approved.
Mr. Berg stated that he did not know the exact number of acres this would
Mr. Cole stated that he felt all factors should be considered in reaching a de-
Icision on this matter.
Mr. Renalds stated that the Commission would not hold a public hearing until the
lBoard of Supervisors acts on the application and the Board could send it on to Rich-
Imond either with or without a specific drainage area set forth.
Mr. Johnston stated that if the application is sent to Richmond as it now stands
•
the Commission will assume that the Board of Supervisors had approved a drainage area
lof about 380 acres as set forth on the map.
Mr. Massie stated that he did not feel the Commission would assume anything when
the opposition is heard.
Mr. Shackleford stated that when Virginia Lakeside Water and Sewer Company was
•
initiated, they obtained a conditional use permit for the plant, this being before th
Sanitation Authority was organized in Frederick County, and the State Water Control
Board advised him that the plant would not be enlarged further than to take care of
Lakeside Estates and the Wakeman property. He further stated that he had a letter to
that effect.
Mr. Cole asked Mr. Shackleford if he had approached the adjoining landowners at
the time the plant was initiated and invited them to join in on the plant and Mr.
IShackleford stated that this was done but that they refused to join in.
Mr. Elmer Verguson, Engineer for Virginia Lakeside Water and Sewer Company, ap-
U

peared before the Board and stated that first of all the Board must remember the fact
that this is an existing facility, started in 1969; that there are 110 hook ups. He
stated that engineering wise the plant probably was designed wrong and should have
been a plant to take in the whole area. He further stated that because of the "fact
that they do not have adequate stream, and all the other variables involved, the Stat
Water Control Board and the Health Department did not see fit to give approval for a
larger plant. Mr. Verguson stated that they now have families and a plant designed
for 300 connections and that there is no assurance that they will go beyond 300 con -
nections when the State Water Control Board and the Health Department have stated tha
they will definitely not enlarge this plant. He stated that they are seeking approva
of a request to serve the people who are already there and there is not other way to
do it unless the Sanitation Authority wants to come in and put in a tert'ia'ry- treat=
ment plant. He further stated that this was tried in the Kernstown area and failed
because it lacked feasibility. Mr. Verguson stated that they were not interested in
a sewer plant but are interested in trying to serve the people. He stated that Danac
has already spent $140,000 trying to bring this plant up to date so that they will
meet the requirements of the State Water Control Board and the Health Department. He
advised that they now have a draft permit from the State Water Control Board and pro-
bably will have the final permit within the next three months; that the permit stated
that you,can not enlarge a plant where it is not feasible to do so.
Mr. Cole asked Mr. Verguson if the Board should request Danac to take in the en-
tire drainage area and the plant has 300 connections, could an adjoining landowner de
mand that water and service be provided and would Danac be forced to provide these
services.
Mr. Verguson answered that they could not be forced to take in more than their
76
capacity.
Mr. Cole asked Mr. Verguson if they had any objection to taking in the entire
drainage area and Mr. Verguson stated that he felt the State Corporation Commission
would laugh at them for asking to serve 1500 areas with a plant of 300 connections.

Mr. Massie stated that the applicant can not ask for more than they can finan-
Mr. Cole stated that he was concerned about growth in the County and did not
the Board could keep on opening up area after area for development.
Mr. Massie stated that if the - applicant went to Richmond and asked to take in
entire drainage area with the facilities they have, the Commission would laugh them
out of court; that they were asking for an area they are able to serve and should
been serving for the last seven years.
Mr. Johnston stated that if the Board approves the present application they are
taking the core of the area and leaving the rest and the Sanitation Authority cannot
help them; but if they take in the entire drainage area it could be served when it ie
economically feasible.
Mr. Cole stated that he felt the Board should go with the Sanitation Authority'
recommendation concerning further expansion being based on feasibility.
Mr. Sandy stated that he did not feel the Board should tell the applicant what
area to apply for other than what they have requested and any future areas to be in-
cluded should be based on feasibility.
Mr. Russell stated that the applicant had come to the Board seeking approval
the Board is supposed to look after the public interest.
Mr. Sandy suggested that the Board send correspondence to the State Corporation
Commission stating that additional areas have been requested for inclusion in the ap
plication. He further stated that the Board can only approve or disapprove the ap-
plication, they cannot change it. He suggested that a copy of the application filed
by Virginia Lakeside Water and Sewer Company, along with a map, be requested from th
State Corporation Commission for review by the Board.
Mr. Renalds stated that it would be helpful to have something concrete in the
files as to what the Baord approves as far as area goes.
State Corporation Commission which sets forth the requested service area.
Mr. Verguson stated that the Board has an exact copy of the papers filed with
Mr. Cole stated that the State Corporation Commission would set the area
it be the one requested or a larger area.
Mr. Russell stated that the Board had approved this application by their action
in September and if the State Corporation Commission approves it no one in the area
can come into it unless Virginia Lakeside Water and Sewer Company permits it.
Mr. Renalds stated that the State Corporation Commission decides what the s
area will be.
Mr. Sandy stated that he felt a transcript of the proceedings should be sent to
Richmond so that the Commission will know what took place at this meeting.
Mr. Verguson reminded the Baord that the Commission would not act without a re-
solution from the Board of Supervisors.
Mr. Sandy stated that he felt the place to hear this matter was before the State
Corporation Commission in Richmond inasmuch as the Board can only approve or disap-
prove the application as requested.
Mr. Wakeman asked if the Board was aware of the drainage area and the contract
when they approved this application in September and Mr. Sandy stated that the appli-
cation spelled out the acres requested for certification and he was aware of the con-

tract Mr. Wakeman has. He again stressed that the Board can only approve or disap-
prove the application, they cannot change it.
Mr. Russell stated that he could not support his action in September when he did
not know all the facts he had learned today.
Mr. Russell then moved to rescind the Board's action to approve the application
for a certificate of convenience and necessity for Virginia Lakeside Water and Sewer
Company taken on September 8, 1975. The motion.was seconded by Donald R. Hodgson.
The motion failed by the following recorded vote: J. Robert Russell, Aye; Donald- R.
Hodgson, Aye; Dennis T. Cole, Nay; and Raymond C. Sandy, Nay.
Mr. Cole stated that inasmuch as the above motion failed, the previous action o
the Board would stand. He then recommended that a transcript of the proceedings of
today's meeting be sent to the State Corporation Commission for their consideration.
Mr. Hodgson requested that a map of the area be sent also. The Baord agreed with_th
above recommendation and requested the County Administrator to see that these mater-
ials were sent to the State Corporation Commission as soon as they are available.
Community Development Preapplication
Mr. Jones stated that the Frederick County Sanitation Authority recommends to t.
Board of Supervisors that they apply to HUD for grant funds in the amount of $245,00
for water and wastewater facilities in Freetown and water facilities in Sunnyside.

Mr. Jones stated that the Sanitation Authority recommends to the Board of Super-
visors that the Virginia Lakeside Water and Sewer Company honor their present contrac
or any other valid contract and serve the entire drainage area as previously recom-
mended by the Planning Commission and that future expansion be based on feasibility.
FOSTER SUBDIVISION - STONEWALL MAGISTERIAL DISTRICT - APPROVED
Mr. Berg presented the Foster Subdivision and stated that the Planning Commissio
recommended denial inasmuch as it does not meet the lot requirements.
Mr. Cole stated that Mr. Foster and sold his son -in -law one acre of land on whic
he had extensively remodeled a house. He further stated that Mr. Dunlap had the pro-
per lot size until the Highway Department had requested an additional 10 foot right o
way. He pointed out that the house had been on the property for many years.
Upon motion made by Dennis T. Cole and seconded by J. Robert Russell,

APPLICATION HUD COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT - APPROVED
Mr. Renalds reviewed the requirements for filing a preapplication for funding
under the HUD Community Development Block Grant program. He stated that the Sanita-
tion Authority had recommended that funds be applied for for water and sewer facili-
ties in Freetown and water facilities in Sunnyside.
Mr. Sandy explained that in last year's application Sunnyside had been chosen a
the number one priority inasmuch as the residents of this area had appeared before
the Board on numerous occasions over the past five years requesting that services be
provided to their area.
Mr. Richard Medley appeared before the Baord representing a delegation of resi-
dents in the Freetown area and requested that funds be applied for to provide servic
in the Freetown area inasmuch as they are desperately needed there. He asked if the
funds applied for would be for fiscal year 1975 -76 and Mr. Renalds stated that they
would but construction would probably not be started until next summer should the
grant be approved.
Mr. Medley requested a copy of the action taken by the Board on this matter and
Mr. Sandy advised him that this would be forwarded to him.

19761
•
decision on their rezoning request be tabled until the first meeting in January,
at which time they would endeavor to present to the Board the proposed use of the pro
perty.
Mr. Bob Claytor appeared before the Board representing the Opequon Memorial Church
and stated that they objected to some of the types of businesses allowed in the re-
quested zoning district. He requested that they be advised of the type business pro-
posed for the property inasmuch as the Church was desirous of maintaining the religio

ES OF DANIEL E. WILLMORE IN GAINESBORO MAGISTERIAL DISTRICT FROM A -1

No one appeared in support of the rezoning request of Daniel E. Willmore.
Mr. John Boyd appeared before the Board in opposition to this rezoning request
J
L
•
r�
U
and stated that he represented approximately 85 citizens who are opposed to this re-
quest. He then presented petitions containing approximately 85 names setting forth
their opposition to this rezoning.
Mr. Boyd stated that these.citizens were opposed to this rezoning request beca
they felt the property was good agricultural land and should be maintained as such;
that development of the property would create a need for additional public services
thereby raising taxes; that the residents in the area are there because of its rural
nature and this would be destroyed should the property be developed; and that with th
Summit and the recently approved Wheatlands Subdivision, the residents felt there was
no need for further development at this time. Mr. Boyd added that all the adjoining
property owners had signed the petition in opposition to this rezoning.
Mr. Berg stated that the Planning Commission in recommending denial of this re-
zoning request had concentrated on the rural nature of the property and the seven lot
which would be facing the road front. He further stated that the Planning Commission
felt it would be appropriate to take the same action on this request as they have on
requests of a similar nature. Mr. Berg stated that the Planning Commission felt this
would be the first of many requests inasmuch as Mr. Willmore owns approximately 100
acres of land and would create a development far from work and shopping areas. He
added that Mr. Willmore has not contacted the Health Department as requested by the
Planning Commission to have the site tested generally for suitability for wells and
septic systems.
Upon motion made by J. Robert Russell and seconded by Donald R. Hodgson,
BE IT RESOLVED, That the Board of Supervisors of the County of Frederick, Vir-
ginia does herein deny the following ordinance, on third and final reading:

MOTION TO RETURN PREVIOUSLY APPROVED FUNDS TRANSFERRED FOR PURCHASE OF SCHOOL P
TO ORIGINAL BUDGET CATEGORY - DIES FOR LACK OF A SECOND
Mr. Sandy asked Mr. Ambrogi if he felt the funds set aside for the purchase of
school property should be brought back under County control inasmuch as the option on
the Kenray property has been withdrawn.
Mr. Ambrogi stated that in view of the events of the last few weeks, he felt the
funds should be returned to the category from which they were taken. He further sta
ed that he felt it would be in the best interest of everyone concerned to rescind the
previous action of the Board and return the money to its original budget category.
Mr. Cole stated that he felt this might tie down progress in the construction of
new high school and he could not see the purpose in rescinding the previous action of
the Board. Mr. Cole added that the Board of Supervisors has no control over the pur-
W
chase of school property; it is the responsibility of the School Board as set forth
State law.
Mr. Sandy stated that he felt the proposed action might allow the Board of Superi
visors to be aware of what is going on and might assist in bringing the Board of Sup-1
ervisors, the Board of Education, and the Planning Commission closer together.
Mr. Thomas Malcolm stated that he felt the proposed action was unnecessary and
inasmuch as it was a big issue when it was previously approved it might become a big
issue again if the Board action is rescinded.
Mr. Hodgson stated that he felt the property should have been bought under the
option but inasmuch as it was not he moved that the previous action of the Board of
Supervisors wherein the funds were transferred for purchase of the Kenray property bel
rescinded. The motion died for lack of a second.
REASSESSMENT DISCUSSED
A gentlemen appeared before the Board and asked what was being done about the
recent reassessment inasmuch as many people feel that the reassessment of their pro-
perty is unfair.
Mr. Sandy advised that it would be up to the new Board as to whether or not they
will ask for another reassessment as recommended by the present Board.
Mr. Alfred Snapp appeared before the Board and extended his thanks to the Board
for their many hours of work. He stated that he felt the Board had done a splendid
job and had brought Frederick County forward during their term in office.
Mr. Renalds also thanked the Board for their cooperation and support.
Mr. Sandy stated that it had been a privilege to work with the present Board and
also the previous Board. He stated that he had found the last four years to be a
challenge. He thanked the staff and the press for their cooperation during his term
in office.
UPON MOTION DULY MADE, SECONDED AND PASSED UNANIMOUSLY, IT IS ORDERED THAT THE
