requested that County staff notify Jacques Myers that he had
surpassed his extension of time and request Mr. Myers to appear
before the Board to further discuss the status of the subdivision.
Jacques Myers stated that the road, water, streets and ditches
have been completed within the subdivision and because he had
planned to do an extension of the subdivision, there was a drainage
ditch to drain one lot on the opposite side of the lot. Mr. Myers
further stated it was designed by an engineer and a contractor
performed the digging; however, seeding would not occur in a
portion of the ditch which the Board expressed concern with. It
was at this time that the Virginia Department of Transportation
suspected that the ditch was on the outside of the easement and
upon determination that it was outside the easement, more time and
money were spent to have an engineer survey the land and design the
ditch that would reduce the depth from six feet to four feet. Mr.
Myers continued that the Virginia Department of Transportation also
recommended a retention pond, but this was not feasible because it
would become mosquito infested. Mr. Myers stated an excavator will
be brought 'in and as a new ditch is being dug, the dirt from it
will be used to cover the old ditch.
Chairman Bradby asked Mr. Myers how soon he could complete the
road and drainage work to the Virginia bepartment of
Transportation's standards.
Mr. Myers stated possibly in a couple weeks although he was
not sure if his engineer has satisfied VDOT regarding the regrading
of some of the yards.

regarding the results of using existing ditches around Sandpiper
Court, he would be in a better position to determine the amount of
time that would be required to complete the road and drainage work.

standards of the Virginia Department of Transportation. The motion
passed by unanimous vote (5-O).
