It is also .planned that a private road system wi?l be utilized within the community, and that the roads will be built to state and county r�.eht-of-�ra`y standards. Two very important featurbs of t.'^-is community, as Planned, are the lake and golf course. The project lies within an 8510 acre watersred, and to create this lake a d ?m,, 1100 feety long, will be constructed across Isaacs Creek, The dam will be an rtr . � �r:'imen withH .tt-t< is e:aert ency spillway.

IC f C- i es, 41i_i�minc-• u ;<# f4 shin{`. 2 The second important feature, the golf coarse and clubhouse facilities' should greatly enhance the project as a quality connani'ty., The.golf course is expected to cover about 204 acres and is to be bordered, in most parts, by single family lots. The golf course will offer both the recreational facilities of the course itself and the social facilities of the clubhouse to the residents. Also included in the plans are various open space areas to be used by the lot Owners. These areas are expedted to remain basically virgin land to be used for such recreational activities as hiking and pichidking. To maintain these areas, as well as the other private facilities, an association will be formed from the lot owners of the community. Yearly dues would be established and collected to nermit the maintenance of t'nese Drivate areaa and enable the association to construct any additional recreational facilities desired. A neighborhood cominercial area of 15 acres, with access to the surrounding community, is to be set aside to Provide the basic shopTing needs. F'xamnles are grocery and drug stores, gas statiors, cleaners and the like. From a community of this type, many benefits, both direct and indirect, would flow both to the County and to the residents of Frederick County. An example of a benefit to the County is reflected in the attached com-putation of tax revenues, which is a rough estimate only. For the residents of the area, more jobs and income would unquestionably result for many years to come. In aa..ldition, a duality project of the type now projected would undoubtedly attract to the area many recreationally oriented families from WO-shington and elsewhere who, in the absence of a project like Lake Holiday Estates, would simpl:v 7(-eI.Qewhere to spend their Mine and money.

WATER The water supply system would initially be served by a series of wells. After the initial development occurs, a reservoir 1 would be constructed on Big Hollow to provide a surface supply for the project. i A treatment plant, storage tank and mains would provide a potable supply to the development. Fire protection would also be provided. The ultimate system would have a capacity of 1.400 MGD to provide for maximum day demands. SEWERAGE It is proposed to construct a secondary treatment plant on Isaacs Cr(!("":_ to tret-itm(-,nt facilities for the project. Stage development would insure flexibility in operation of the plant. The plant would be designed as a biological treatment plant and would make use of the contact stabilization treatment process. I i I jl Treated effluent would be,discharged to Isaacs Creek and i +would meet the water quality standards . 1 Construction of the dam and lake would insure adequate dgi- lution flows in the stream during summer months. Ultimately the plant would be designed with a capacity of i 0.800 MGD . Trunk sewers and local sewers would collect waste from � r
