County Administrator Standish introduced Larry Wales of Municipal Advisors, Inc. Larry Wales stated the resolution being considered is a resolution .for the sale of an amount not to exceed $9,000,000 in general obligation bonds. Mr. Wales advised that the long term bond issue would be for $5, 000, 000 only with -the difference between the $9,000,000 and the $5,000,000 figure being that the regional jail construction program will require that the. County, during the construction period, fund their share of the jail, a sum of $7,458,000 and at the end of the construction period, half of the money will be reimbursed by the Commonwealth. Mr. Wales continued that during the construction period, there was a good possibility that the County would have to borrow on a short-terra basis, the additional $4,000.,000 to be reimbursed at the end of construction. Mr. Wales stated this was why the resolution indicated the $9, 000, 000 figure and that in the resolution, Section 3, the County will authorize rates not to exceed 9$ and the County should not expect to pay. 9$e for this money. Mr. Wales advised that in a competitive bid, dealers use various coupons to arrive at their bid 1 1 anrK 14:~':'S67 2 1 and the County does not want any coupon to exceed 9$ and that by using this, than Gounty will gat a very good bid. Mr, Wales continued that the resolution was stating that the County believes the interest rate to be born by the bonds to be at 7$ and in the market today, he believes the County could look for an interest rate of less than 7$. Mr. Wales continued the County was in excellent financial condition, well managed, and he believes the County will get a number of very good bids on the issue. Mr. Wales also stated that before the Board is a proposed schedule for the. bond sale and that all of the items in the schedule need to be accomplished, but not necessarily in the order grepared. Mr. Wales further stated the days 1-55 will be given a calendar date within the next week in order to arrive at a date in which it will be recommended that. the bids on the bonds be opened and County Administrator Standish will have this date for the Board and will try to have the opening of the bids to coincide with one of the Board of Supervisors board meetings.

Mrs. Jordan had six children and had conveyed over the last number of years by gift single family lots from the farm. Mr. Delk continued that Carlton Jordan, son of Mrs. Jordan, had agreed with his brothers and sisters to purchase Mrs. Jordan's home place .and because Mr. Jordan had already received another lot from Mrs. Jordan, this would not be considered a family transaction exempted from subdivision and zoning and because of the number of lots that have already been conveyed off of the farm, rezoning is required. Mr. Delk stated the Planning Commission recommended rezoning for this one lot. Supervisor Bradshaw moved the Board approve the application of Maude Lane Jordan Estate.

The Planning Commission referred the matter to its street .naming subcommittee which recommended. this ordinance amendment which was approved by the. Planning Commission who is now recommending this amendment to the Board of Supervisors. Chairman Bradby called for public comments. Helen Haverty King stated that when the street naming came up, she believed the names would be of historical importance. Ms. Ring stated several citizens in Days Point suggested the name for Route 673 as Days Point Road, but that it came out as Aberdeen Road. Chairman Bradby stated he had a problem with the ordinance because of the $400.00 charge to change the name. Ms. Ring stated the sign for Morgans Beach 1s misspelled. Phyllis Bloxom, Rushmere resident, requested Route 703 be named Bradby Lane in honor of Mr. Bradby who came. over in 1875 to help settle Rushmere. Ms. Bloxom stated that Ste James does not suit this road. Supervisor Turner stated he also had a problem with the $400.00 charge to change the name although he realized there was a cost factor involved in advertising, but that this is a citizens' input of trying to make it historic or of some significant factor to why it should be named this. County Administrator Standish reminded the Board that the names and numbers assigned go into the computer for the 911 program and the sooner the names are settled, preferably this summer, the better.

Supervisor Turner stated that the closure of Route 704 was brought back up at his request and that the Board is considering new policies regarding road closures. Supervisor Turner explained that in the past, the Board tries to work with the Department of Highways in trying to .save as much money as possible in construction, while other situations involving road closures near businesses which might create a major hardship on the businesses. Supervisor Turner stated that in the future, public hearings would U G~~~ ~~..'.H t,r ~J 1..,~ 6 probably be heard on any road closures to allow businesses or citia-ens to express their concern. 1 Chairman. Bradby called for public comment. Sonny:Hines, co-owner of Rescue Yacht Basin in Smithfield, stated if 'the bridge was closed, it would be devastating to his business. Mr. Hines continued that if the .bridge. was shut down completely. at this. point, his business could not survive and he would like to see only half of the bridge closed. Jo Carter, owner of Rescue Marina, stated her oyster loading facilities are located across. the creek from her restaurant and that she. goes back and forth several times a day tending to the oyster business. Ms. Carter stated that if she had to go around the bridge, it would amount to eight miles one way. Chairman Bradby called for comments. by Board members. 1 Supervisor Turner stated he would request that the Department of Highways consider all the options and not just the one option of closing it:, tearing it down, and building a new bridge. Supervisor Turner stated-he would like the Department of Highways to consider the option of keeping the bridge-open on one lane, building on the .side cf the other bridge, or whatever options there might be. Supervisor Turner stated there was also a .time factor with seasons of the year and times where travel is heavier than others. Supervisor Turner continued that action that was taken by the Board before was hasty and that he wanted the Board to back out and give the message to the Department of Highways that the Board wants all the avenues looked at. Supervisor Turner moved that the following resolution to close Route 704 be rescinded and that the Department of Highways look at other alternatives. Whereas the Virginia Department of Transportation is desirous of closing Route 704 .for the purpose of replacing a bridge over Jones Creek an project 0704-046-204,B619 and has requested the approval of the Board; Now, therefore, be it resolved by-the Board of supervisors of Isle of Wight. County, Virginia, that the- Board concurs with the recommendation that Route 704 be closed to through traffic between Route-688 and Route 669 'during the time of construction replacing a bridge over Jones Creek, thereby eliminating the: construction of an expensive detour. The vote in .favor of rescinding the. resolution was unanimous (5-0) . Chairman Bradby called for the public hearing on the closure of Route 646. Chairman Bradby called for public comment. No one appeared. 1 Chairman Bradby called for comments by Board members. supervisor Turner stated the County had advertised for a public hearing on the closure of Route 646 and he thought this was an excellent idea.

Chairman Bradby called for the public hearing to rescind the No Wake Zone on the .Pagan River at Gatling Pointe Marina. 4 7 Chairman Bradby asked for citizens who wished to speak in favor of rescinding the no wake zone on the Fagan River at Gatlinq Pointe Marina. Carter Williams stated he would like to see the no wake zone taken down because it is a mein thoroughfare to the James River and is heavily traveled with water skiers. Russell Batten, resident of Battery Park, stated Gatlinq Pointe had set no wake buoys out in twenty feet of water. Mr. Batten stated he was afraid his children would get a ticket due to wakes created while waterskiing. Alan Monette stated the Pagan River is a thoroughfare used by people who have lived in the County all their lives. Mr. Monette stated there were numerous piers throughout the area and people needed to use common sense when boating. Mr. Monette further stated that he would like to see a big caution sign, possibly with a yellow light, but that he would not want the police there. Wesley Brown stated he had a pleasure boat and if there were aggravations like no wake zones, what would there be next? Mr. Brown further stated pleasure crafts were for fun and he was not out to cause any harm. Mr. Brown commented that if the no wake sign was for a business which did not have the foresight to protect itself, then the business should be responsible for correcting this. Chairman Bradby called for persons to speak in favor of the no wake zone at Gatling Pointe, Branche Lawson, resident and -developer of Gatling Pointe, stated those opposing the no wake zone have opted not to talk with Gatling Pointe regarding permits relating to the marina or what Gatling Pointe had to go through to get the no wake zone established. Mr. Lawson further stated Mr. Monette insinuated that Gatling Pointe did not go hrough the process of notifying adjacent property owners and .that Gatling Pointe did indeed have communications with adjacent property owners. Mr. Lawson continued. that matters of the marine patrol and matters of the no wake zone are two separate issues. Mr. Lawson stated that Gatlinq Pointe did not ask the marine patrol to be there and that as early as January 13, 1987, intentions were made public to build 'the marina at Gatling Pointe. Mr. Lawson continued that since that time, the proper approvals and permits were obtained and on August 17, 1989, the Isle of Wight County Board of Supervisors unanimously approved the request for a no wake zone. Mr. Lawson stated that on September 12, 1989, the Virginia Department of Game and Inland Fisheries issued the approval of a no wake zone and installation of no wake signs and buoys and that Gatling Pointe never had any opposition spoken in regards to their plans. Mr. Lawson stated that building. a breakwater would have been impossible and the Virginia Marine Resources Commission would not allow Gatling Pointe to bring the marina closer to land as that would have involved dredging and while the Virginia Marine Resources Commission was pushing Gatling Pointe away from the shore, the Army Corp of Engineers was concerned about the marina being too close to the channel. Mr. Lawson stated that the net result was that Gatling Pointe had to redesign the marina to accommodate both permitting agencies, Mr. Lawson showed a film indicating the wakes created when boats come by and the narrowness of the river from the. end of the dock to the marsh on the other side. In closing, Mr. Lawson presented a petition with 127 names of people who wanted the no wake zone to remain in place. 1 MarDc Ed~iards, resident of Gatling Pointe, stated he was not only concerned about the safety of the boats at the marina, but of citizens and people who would be walking on the docks and piers. a~t~ ~.4.kP.~S?3 Barbara Owen, resident of Gatling Pointe, stated she had located at Gatling Point because she was told there would be a no wake zone. 1 Lee Russo, partner with Branche Lawson, stated he had seen numerous boats qo by the marina and not slow down. Mr. Russo continued that. no wake signs were posted everywhere and he was pleased to see this. Bi11 Gordy, resident of Gatling Fointe, addressed placing the no wake signs up, but not making it a no wake zone. Mr. Gordy continued that people were not paying attention to the signs as it is now and that the law enforcement should not be taken away. Chairman Bradby called for rebuttals.' Alan Monette stated the distance in which people have to ski has always been from; the point off his home down to Battery Park and that the rest of the way to Smithfield-is a very narrow channel and in. many cases there is dangerous water at low. tide. Mr. Monette stated consideration could have been given to building the marina n_such a way that it .would not have been rejected by the Corps of Engineers and that it could have been done in a horseshoe effect. Chairman Bradby called for comments by Board members. u Supervisor Turner stated he had tried to do research on other areas to see what they had done and excellent points had been brought out by both sides, but the fact is that in the future, the Board needs to be aware of what the long term effect is and how it affects the area. Supervisor Turner continued that what has been done was done in the proper manner and in this situation he would hate to see anyone hurt on the dock from a wake caused by a boat. Supervisor Turner stated he would also like to consider that a request be made that Gatling Pointe have a channel marker to allow boats to go on that side. Supervisor Ross questioned why buoys along with signs? Branch Lawson stated that the Virginia bepartment of Game and Inland Fisheries suggested both buoys and signs. Supervisor Ross asked if these buoys were. infringing on part of the deep water or part of the channel. Mr. Lawson stated it was possible that this may be happening. Supervisor Turner suggested that this be looked into, as well as channel markers to direct boats to the other side. Supervisor Turner moved the Board not request. the Inland Fisheries to rescind the establishment of the no wake zone. The vote in favor was unanimous {5-0). // Chairman Bradby called for .Citizens Comments. f. Thomas Fenderson of the Newport District commented on the School Board's. decision to build two schools stating that he would like the Board of Supervisors to ask the School Board to delay its decision and do a study. Mr. Fenderson stated that only $300 had been allowed for a study to date. Reverend W. L. Williams asked for the Board's personal and political influence on the School B©ard stating that the School Board has turned a deaf ear on the citizens and that the School Board wants to make major improvements on the school system. Reverend Williams stated that if the school system. could be a~r~ 14 r;:~:~574 improved to better .the education of the students, he would agree wholeheartedly. Reverend Williams continued that decisions are not made without information and the School. Board has made a major decision without information and that they also refused information. Reverend Williams stated that what the School Board calls a study which was conducted by the State Education Department is not a study but is only a survey. // Chairman Bradby called for the Community Development report. W. Douglas Caskey, Assistant County Administrator/Community Development stated he had distributed a packet of information pertaining to the Morgarts Beach agricultural district. Mr. Caskey continued that this was approved by the County in July of 1982 for a .period of eight years. Mr. Caskey informed the Board that the end of this period will be July 15, 1990. County Administrator Standish recommended to the Board that the people be contacted who originated the agricultural zone district to determine if they are still interested in maintaining the Agricultural District. Supervisor Turner .moved the Board that the process as outlined by Mr. Caskey and Mr. Standish be started. The vote in favor was unanimous (5-0). Mr. Caskey stated he had one late .item concerning discussions and briefings made to the Board. previously regarding Myers Landing Subdivision. Mr. Caskey informed the Board that the subdivision- was very near completion, but the bond is scheduled to lapse on May 29, 1990 and there are very minor items that need to be addressed and completed in the subdivision. Mr. Caskey continued that the Virginia Department of Highways made an inspection as recently as this week and the items to be completed are the same items needing to be completed for some time. Mre Caskey asked for the Board's direction as to how to proceed logically prior to the termination date of the bond. County Administrator Standish recommended that the County Attorney give his advice in an Executive Session pertaining to possible litigation. // Chairman Bradby called for the County Attorney's report. County Attorney Crook advised the Board that he had the lease from the County to the Real Smithfield Jaycees, .prepared by Bill Riddick, with-revisions he had requested and which have been incorporated into the revised lease which is ready for signature. County Attorney Crook asked the Board to authorize Chairman Bradby to sign on behalf of the County.
