Chairman Bradby called for a public hearing on "An Ordinance
To Amend The Subdivision Ordinance Of Isle of Wight County
Concerning Subdivision Requirements For water and Sewerage
Facilities".
Dallas Holston, of the Western Tidewater Health District,
appeared in favor of the proposed ordinance and stated that the
provisions of Section 4-4-13 of the proposed ordinance are in in
effect in the City of Suffolk and Southampton County and are
working well.
William H. Riddick, attorney representing real estate agents
in the County, appeared in opposition stating that his clients
feel the intent of the proposed ordinance is to provide
additional and better fire protection in the County, and does not
feel the adoption of the proposed ordinance will accomplish this
goal. Mr. Riddick continued stating that the ordinance will
affect the small subdividers, such as property owners, who wish
to subdivide their property when they no longer deem it feasible
to farm the land, and there is no time limitation on lot
development. Mr. Riddick urged the Board to adopt the State
water and sewer standards, as well as bringing the sewer lines
into the County.
Christopher York, Windsor Magisterial resident and owner of
a small farm in the County, stated he feels an even handed
approach should be taken toward growth and requested that the
Board table action on the proposed ordinance to provide an
opportunity for him to talk with his neighbors to fully explain
same and to allow the Board members time to study the proposed
ordinance further.
Lud Lorenzo Spivey, Windsor resident, concurred with Mr.
York's comments.
County Attorney Crook advised the Board members that the
proposed ordinances does not make any sweeping changes, basically
it brings in the Public Utilities Department in place of the Isle
of Wight Public Service Authority. Mr. Crook stated the proposed
ordinance does reduce the number of lots from 15 to 4 lots for a
central way system.
Supervisor Bradshaw expressed concern regarding Section
4-4-5-1 in connection with 6" pipe line for fire protection, and
stated it would be unreasonable and too expensive to require a
subdivider with 4 lots to install a central water system.
David J. Murphy, Public Utilities Director, stated the
requirement for fire protection is for 15 lots or more.
T~-

Supervisor Turner suggested the Board consider changing the

L. S. Sullivan, Rushmere Shores resident, appeared in
opposition expressing concern regarding noise, type of music, and
use of alcoholic beverages. Mr. Sullivan stated the residents in
the area did not want crime problems back in the area.
Sheriff Phelps stated he is opposed to granting the permit
even though he did sign the request to bring it before the
Planning Commission and Board of Supervisors. Sheriff Phelps
stated he feels the festivals will entice criminal elements to
return. He does not have any problem with family reunions, but
does have problems with festivals. Sheriff Phelps stated that if

the law.

BOCK ~ 4 :AGED ~O
Stephen~J. Seufer, Windsor Town Administrator, read the
following to the Board members regarding the Hampton Roads
Sanitation District extending sewer lines along Route 460 to the
Town of Windsor:
"EXECUTIVE BRIEF FOR BOARD OF SUPERVISORS
COUNTY OF ISLE OF WIGHT
There has been much discussion recently concerning
sewerage service in Isle of Wight County and the Town of ~
Windsor. The Town wishes to provide you with current Town
planning information and solicit your comments, and then
your support.
Growth in the Windsor area is severely limited by poor
soil conditions which prohibit the use of septic tanks in
any areas. Also, existing septic tank systems are becoming
troublesome with age. A sewage collection system would
solve these problems and permit economic growth.
Engineering feasibility studies have been conducted. The
initial studies assumed that the Town would have to go it
alone without outside assistance and the local user charges
were quite high. Since that time, the project has been
scaled down. Additionally, HRSD has offered to finance that
portion of an interceptor pipeline from Windsor to Suffolk
that would link within the City of Suffolk. The Town's
engineering consultants, taking these factors into account,
have proposed the following reasonable charges for the Town
sewerage collection system to "piggyback" on the HRSD
Windsor interceptor:
User Charge $ 20.00/month
Local Connection Fee
(initial users) 750.00
(after first year users) 1,500.00
Mandatory Connections Windsor 464
County 171
635
Thus, those Town and surrounding County residents who
connect to the new system the first year would pay a total
of $750.00 in connection fees and an average $20.00 month. in
user fees. The Town is requesting that the Count subsidize
the user fees in the earl years to reduce the user charge
to approximately 20.00/month. As growth occurs and subsidy
can be eliminated the $20.00/month fee will be adequate
to meet expenditures.
Old Dominion University has conducted a public opinion
survey and nearly 63$ of the residents of Windsor stated
they would support sewerage service for a reasonable
charge.
The "beauty" of this current plan is that the HRSD
Windsor Interceptor, which the County has studied and
desires to fund, would have a guaranteed customer
immediately: Windsor. The interceptor and collector system
are interlinked and reasonably affordable at one-fourth the
cost of the expensive Route 17 plan.
Finally, this plan is ready now, awaiting approval for
the County and Windsor to attain a WIN-WIN solution."
"July 7, 1989
To: Chairman, Board of Supervisors, Isle of Wight County

In re: HRSD Interceptor and Town of Windsor Collector
System for Sewage

Dear Sir:
The County of Isle of Wight is requested to enter into
a contract with Hampton Roads Sanitation District to install
a Sewerage Interceptor System (Part A) from Suffolk up Route
460 to at least the junction of Routes 460 and 258 in
Windsor.
The County of Isle of Wight is further requested to
favorably consider the Town of Windsor proposed method for.
developing a Windsor Collector System (Part B). The
Interceptor (Part A) and the Collector (Part B) would be
considered as one project interlinked since Part B could not
be produced unless Part A financing is provided. Enclosure
(1) is provided as the pro forma projections which have been
provided to the Board of Supervisors in an informal manner
1n June 1989.
During a Town Council meeting on June 27, 1989, and a
citizen forum held concerning sewerage systems Town Council
voted unanimously to support the plan of enclosure (1) and
to commit to a system of mandatory participation for Town
residents. The County would have to make a similar
commitment for the County residents who would be integral to
this first major utility project for the central Isle of
Wight citizens.
Thank you for your consideration, endorsements, and
approvals of this report.
Sincerely yours,
s/Stephen J. Seufer
Town Administrator

Supervisor Edwards stated as a homeowner he was one of a
group of property owners in and around the Town of Windsor who
are affected by the sewerage proposal but that he is able to
participate in this transaction fairly, objectively, and in the
public interest and asked County Attorney Crook if this statement
satisfied the requirements of the Conflict of Interest Act.
County Attorney Crook replied that Supervisor Edwards'
declaration was well stated and did comply with Section
2.1-639.14E and Section 2.1-639.11.A.2 of the Conflict of
Interest Act.

Mr. Seufer informed Supervisor Edwards that the proposed
HRSD line would not go by his house.
Supervisor Bradshaw asked Mr. Seufer how far the line goes
on Route 258 south, to which Mr. Seufer replied, "the line only
goes a little south of the railroad track on Route 603".

Administrator Standish and County Attorney Crook to negotiate a
contract with HRSD regarding the Windsor sewage interceptor and
report back to the Board. The motion carried unanimously (5-0).
