A. Request of the Camptown Coalition for a waiver of Section IV
of the Isle of Wight County - tr tlighting P IiT. (Tabled
August 17, 1995)
Otellia Rainey, representing the Camptown Coalition, requested the
Board's favorable consideration of a waiver from Section IV of the
Streetlighting Policy with regard to the cost to energize a streetlight for a
period of five (5) years. Ms. Rainey stated at the time the existing
streetlights were installed, that particular end of the street was adead-end,
but since that time six homes have been built, four of which are single
female homeowners.
Supervisor Spady stated there have been requests for streetlights in
the past and the County's polity is that citizens will participate in the initial
cost. Supervisor Spady further stated if he voted in favor of this request he
was not sure how he could vote against other similar requests.

Ms. Rainey stated she would ask the Coalition if its members can
provide payment in the amount of $100 per year for afive-year period to
partially cover the initial energizing costs.
In response to Supervisor Bradshaw's request that he elaborate on the
crime in this area, Sheriff C. W. Phelps stated the City of Franklin recently
had a sting operation in the Camptown area for drug dealers. Sheriff
Phelps stated it became necessary at that time to assign a group of Deputy
Sheriffs which took some time to identify and clean up the unlawful
activities. Sheriff Phelps stated in the process, the Camptown area was
being used as a distribution center for illegal drugs and it afforded the drug
dealers the opportunity to do this because the. area was not well lit. Sheriff
Phelps stated he felt the installation of a streetlight would help eliminate
these types of problems from happening again in that community..
Supervisor Spivey moved the Board table the matter until the
November 16,1995 meeting. The motion was adopted unanimously (5-0).

the Board previously directed cost figures be obtained on two alternative
sites. Mr. David presented a matrix illustrating the estimated site
acquisition and development costs and site benefits and constraints. Mr.
David stated the Poor House Farm site is the most feasible of the three sites
because the other sites have either high user and development costs or are
located on the fringe of the service area proposed to be served.
Ludford T. Creef requested the Board take action as soon as possible.

be reviewed. Mr. David stated following the Planning Commission's action,
staff conducted a briefing on August 10, 1995 in the Windsor Town Counal
Chambers of .which five (5) property owners were in attendance. Mr. David
stated the general consensus of these property owners was that the
.proposed facility will be a significant improvement over the current solid ,

alternative sites were reviewed in addition to the Stave Mill Road site, as
well as a site on West Blackwater Road, all of which were novas favorable
