A regular meeting of the Leesburg Town Council was held in the Council Chambers , 10 West Loudcun Street , Leesburg, Virginia, on October 9, 1974 at 7 : 30 P.M. The meeting was called to order by the Mayor, with Councilman Orr offering the prayer, and followed by the Salute to the Flag . Those present were : Mayor G. Dewey Hill, Councilmen Charles E . Bange, Mary Anne Newman , Robert A. Orr, Her- 4 bert L. Ridder, James A. Rock and C. Terry Titus ; also Town Manager James W . Ritter , Jr. , Deputy Town Manager E . Wesley Devero and Town Attorney George M. Martin . The Minutes of the regular meeting of September 25 , 1974 were approved as written . Mr. Paul McDonald, an announced candidate for the Thirty-Third Senatorial District of Virginia , addressed Council , presenting his philosophies of government and seeking the support of Council -mem- bers and others present in the coming Senatorial election. Mayor Hill stated that this Council gives equal time to all political can- didates , although it is not a political forum. Town Manager Ritter was welcomed back from vacation by Mayor Hill . Mr . Ritter commended Deputy Town Manager Devero for a very good job while he was gone and felt that both he and the Town 'are fortunate to have him. Mr. Ritter reported as follows : (1) Yesterday , three staff members from HUD, along with Mrs . Pendergast of Johnson and Williams , were here to investigate the im- pact that the Potomac River Project might have on historical and cul- tural properties , with interest being centered on Exeter and the down- town historical district. After visiting Exeter, the site of the Po- tomac water facility and the site of the Carr standpipe , they were all unanimous in feeling that construction of the project would have no adverse effect on the historic and cultural properties in and a- round Leesburg . (2) Investigations are proceeding on the drilling of a new well . A proposal has been received from Sydnor Hydrodynamics and a letter of recommended procedure from the State Geologist. Three sites have been selected. One in Virginia Knolls , Section 3-A is being investigated. It is possible that a site may be donated by the developers . A study is also being made on other sources of water and a report will be made on November 4th to the Public Works Committee . (3) The Environmental Impact Study on the Potomac Water Project has been completed by Johnson and Williams and was delivered yester- day. It is a very comprehensive and voluminous study, consisting of 34 pages with attachments . It is here for those who might want to read it. If there are no objections , he will sign it and send it on to HUD. (4) We have not yet received the break-down on the Potomac fa- cility . The estimated cost in 1970 was $2 .4 million, with the present day cost being $5 . 8 million . He has requested this information from Johnson and Williams . (5) At yesterday 's Chamber of Commerce meeting , the Chamber voted to turn over to the Town the $5 ,000 grant from the Virginia Historic Landmark Commission for the purpose of log cabin restoration . (6) A new Police officer, Robert A. Bangle, reported for work on September 16 - he fills the additional officer position provided for in the Budget . Mr. Bangle is a former State Police officer and was an M. P. for 32 years . He has had six months training in the State Police School and lives in Middleburg . Also , David R. Simpson will report for duty on the 16th of October - he replaces Officer Van Woody , ;.r: who resigned to accept a position with the Town of Herndon at $2,000 more annually. This is a problem, not only in the Police Department , but in other areas of personnel as well. Officer Simpson has been a police officer for the Town of Middleburg for 32 years and has gradu- ated from Central Police School at Richmond. ( a MINUTES OF OCTOBER 9 , 1974 MEETING . (7) A letter has been received from VEPCO, ' stating that they have erected "No Trespassing" signs on the old W. & 0 . D. right-of- way. They have authorized us to stop and evict any person we find unlawfully on their property . (8) Curb, gutter and sidewalk has been completed, except that portion in front of the Library, where work will start next Monday . Town -Forces are now removing the old stone curb and resetting the water meters . A fire hydrant will have to be moved back and replaced r with a new one . (9) A snag has been thrown into the Fisher-Bishop storm sewer project . The Fisher easement expired about two weeks ago. The Fishers have refused to sign an extension and now want a change in alignment to move the pipe to the property line . This would mean another survey and revised drawings by DND and would add another 15 feet of pipe to the line. An additional structure would have to be provided and we would have to secure another easement from Mrs . Spates , the adjoining property owner. This matter will be discussed at the Public Works Committee meeting . (10) A pre-construction conference was held yesterday with the contractor on the Route 7 Urban Project. We have two more water lines to be moved yet and Perry will start on these tomorrow, with comple- tion to be the middle of next week . Hazel Construction Company, con- tractors , plan to start work next week. They are definitely inter- ested in the Fisher-Bishop job. Councilman Ridder felt that the traffic problem at King and Mar- ket Streets should be studied further by the Public Works Committee . East-west traffic runs smoothly but there is a good deal of tie-up on Route 7S because of left turns onto Route 15 . It was suggested that the same situation on Loudoun Street be considered. Mr. Ridder asked that the Police Department take part in the discussion on this matter. Councilman Titus said that one or two members of the County Board of Supervisors will probably inquire as to how the Council feels a- bout the rezoning of the Stowers tract known as "Coburn . " He felt that the Comprehensive Plan states the Town ' s feeling , as well as the fact that the Town has a serious water and sewer problem. Mayor Hill said the Town is up to the top of the bracket now at the present Plant and, if any more sewer capacity becomes available , it will go to those inside the Town before it would be shared. He did not feel that Council should be brought in on any decision concerning zoning outside the Town - he felt this should be decided by the County . Councilman Newman reported that she had been contacted by a representative of an organization desiring to plant trees in the median strip leading up Memorial Drive to the Hospital . On investi- gation , it was found that the sewer line runs directly down the center, so it is impossible to plant trees . Councilman Titus said a similar request had been received and turned down in the Ayrlee area because of utility lines . He suggested that perhaps a policy should be set up on this and provide space for planting . Mayor Hill reported that he had received a complaint concerning the fact that the garage at the corner of Market and Liberty Streets is parking used cars and cars under repair all along the block between Market and Loudoun Streets . He asked the Town Manager to contact these people and ask them to leave this area for those who are resi- dents of the street or those who park for just a short time. Mayor Hill read a letter from Police Chief Kidwell to the Police Committee , said letter recommending that Corporal Hickman and Officer Evans be commended for their outstanding performance in connection with a recent breaking and entering case at Summit Hill Restaurant. Mayor Hill said he felt the Police Force is deserving of all the praise it can get , as well as everyone else working for the Town . He then presented Certificates of Commendation to Corporal Douglas C. Hickman and Officer Reginald B. Evans . for their action in this inci- dent . 76 MINUTES OF OCTOBER 9, 1974 MEETING. Chief of Police Kidwell then introduced the two new Police offi- cers , Robert A. Bangle and David R. Simpson . These two men were wel- comed to the Force by Mayor Hill . Councilman Orr said that Colonel Valentine is out of town and could not be present to address Council tonight on their request for a waiver of business license to operate a snack bar at the Hospital. This request was , therefore, deferred until the next meeting . On motion of Councilman Kidder, seconded by Councilman Bange, the following resolution was proposed: WHEREAS, the sanitary sewer line located on the James Hut- chison property on Morven Park Road was sealed by Southern Line Cleaning as part of the Town of Leesburg 's infiltration program, and WHEREAS, it is the opinion of the Town Council that the above- mentioned sewer line should be replaced as defects in the pipe still remain which were unsealable, NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the Town Manager is here- by directed to advertise for bids for the replacement of the existing sewer line on the Hutchison property , pursuant to specifications set forth by the Director of Public Works , and that such bids shall be submitted to the Town Council for its action . A roll call vote , which defeated the resolution, is shown below: Aye : Councilmen Bange , Orr and Ridder. Nay : Councilmen Newman, Rock and Titus . Abstention : Mayor Hill . On motion of Councilman Ridder, seconded by Councilman Bange, the following resolution was proposed: WHEREAS, a request has been received from the Lesluke Cor- poration to obtain the amount of $4 ,275 .00 of off-site storm sewer charges collected by the Town to be used for improve- ments on lands owned by the Lesluke Corporation, NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Town Council , that the Town Manager is hereby directed to release $4 ,275 .00 to the Lesluke Corporation upon receipt and approval by the Town Council of a bond in an equal amount that is conditioned upon the physical construction of storm sewers for which the off- site monies were collected . Mr. Brownell, representing Lesluke Corporation, asked if Mrs . Carr would be allowed to post her own surety . After some discussion, it was pointed out that the Town 's policy is to accept a surety bond , an escrow account or a cashier 's check in the amount of 150 per cent of the project cost . Discussion continued at length concerning a release of any funds at this time . Town Manager Ritter pointed out that a good deal of money has been collected from developers on the south side of Edwards Ferry Road that is due Mrs . Carr, however, no policy has ever been set as to the time for such payment , for example, should it be paid on presentation of a bill for engineering or wait until such time as the actual physical improvements have taken place . An amendment to add at the end of the above resolution was presented by Councilman Ridder, as follows : "on the condition that if construc- tion is not completed within five years , the money shall be returned or the bond shall be forfeited. " However, there was no second to this amendment. Town Attorney Martin recommended that the type of bond be determined. On motion of Councilman Rock, seconded by Coun- cilman Newman , Council voted 5 to 2 , as shown below, to return this matter to the Public Works Committee for clarification : Aye : Councilmen Newman , Orr, Rock, Titus and Mayor Hill . Nay : Councilmen Bange and Ridder. 77 MINUTES OF OCTOBER 9 , 1974 MEETING. On motion of Councilman Titus , seconded by Councilman Ridder, the following resolution was proposed: WHEREAS, the Crestwood Construction Corporation has requested that the surety bond covering physical improvements in Crest- wood Hamlet , Section 3-A , be extended to November 21, 1975 , and WHEREAS, the Town Council is in receipt of a letter from the Broyhill Insurance Agency , Inc . , indicating that the said bond has been extended to that date, NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED , that the Town Council hereby agrees to the extension of the said surety bond to November 21 , 1975 . It was pointed out by Mr . Forbes that the extension of the bond is worth nothing unless the agreement (PC-2) to construct the physical improvements within one year has been extended also . Councilman Titus moved to amend the resolution by adding at the end the follow- ing : "conditioned upon the receipt of an amended PC-2 for improve- ments noted above . " This addition was accepted as part of the resolution by Councilman Ridder. The resolution, with addition, was then unanimously adopted, as shown: Aye : Councilmen Bange , Newman, Orr, Ridder, Rock , Titus and Mayor Hill . Nay: None . A letter from the Highway Department concerning improvements at the intersection of Market , Loudoun and Morven Park Road was discussed at length, with attention to the problems to be discussed and recom- mendations to be made by Council if one-way streets are instituted in accordance with the Department 's recommendation .

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Town Council of the Town of Leesburg that (1) the Town remains fully committed to the adopted plan for sewage treatment for Study Area 1 of the NVPDC and does not support either the SWCB ' s Water Quality Management Program or its proposed implementation policy ; (2) the Town feels it is , at present , operating its sewage treatment plant within its certificate limits ; (3) the Town will continue its infiltration abatement and re- construction program which has been on-going for about two years ; (4) the Town will be put under severe financial hard- ship if it ultimately has to abandon its sewage treatment plant, which would result in a loss in revenues to pay out- standing debt of over $1,000,000 on the said plant ; and (5) the Town feels that , at the time of approval of its present plant, strong indication was given to the Town by the SWCB that ex- pansion could take place and the Town did, in fact, construct cer- til portions of the plant that make it readily expandable , and BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Mayor is hereby requested to present to the officials of NVPDC, Loudoun and Fairfax Coun- ties and the Town of Herndon the Town of Leesburg ' s original position regarding the SWCB ' s Water Quality Management Pro- gram (as stated at the attendant SWCB Public Hearing) and supplement it with the above ideas of the Town, and BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Mayor also convey to the said officials the desire of the Town of Leesburg to join any effort to again fully support the recommendations of the NVPDC, and BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that , upon completion of the presen- tation to the abovementioned officials , a resolution incor- porating the ideas contained herein and any other pertinent ideas be presented to the Council at its next meeting for a- doption and formal presentation at the SWCB hearing of Oc- tober 29, 1974 . cc : Hon . Jean R. Packard Hon. William C . Crossman Hon . Rufus Phillips Hon. Henry Stowers Hon . Frank Raflo Mr. Horace Hallett Mr . John Epling Councilman Titus said he and Mayor Hill met with the people named a- bove and discussed the possibility of the three jurisdictions joining in a presentation to the Water Control Board. He felt that Loudoun County , Fairfax County and the Town of Leesburg all disagree with the Water Control Board 's program and they have had strong indication that EPA will not approve this program until some recommendation of local government has been made concrete . This group of people feel they should "stand up and be heard" and now is the time to do it . Mayor Hill referred to the term of the Virginia Municipal League conven- tion "Localism" or "stand up and be heard, " to which this resolution speaks . He fully supports the NVPDC resolution and will fight for it . He felt that we should indicate that the Town of Leesburg will respond at the October 29th Public Hearing.

It was understood that subject partnership had been allotted capacity for six lots in Waverly Heights Subdivision at the time the original Policy Statement of March 28 , 1973 was adopted . This prop- erty had been rezoned to Commercial sometime before that , and their question is :Can the capacity for these six lots be transferred to be used as one tap on the large tract of land? They have met with the � . 3 MINUTES OF OCTOBER 9, 1974 MEETING. • Public Works Committee several times on this matter, but no deter- mination has ever been made . They were delayed in any construction ti on this property due to waiting for a . reply from the Town 's attorney . • in Fairfax . Mr. Nails stated that the "Acknowledgment" form required ' • . for the present Priority List had been submitted in order to insure their being on the forthcoming list should the original allotment not be transferrable . A portion of this form had been deleted by Mr. Nails and it was felt by some members of Council that this would negate Manna Partnership being placed on the Priority List - at all . Council discussed the matter at great length, with no decision being reached and with several questions to be answered. Mayor Hill referred the matter to the . Public Works Committee for recommendation to the Council at the next meeting . On motion of Councilman Ridder, seconded by Councilman Rock, the meeting was adjourned at 11 :40 P.M. _/'1V / / Mayo X/ Clerk of th Council 0 Y ' 0 0 x CO H Cn 9C roo cnC LTC 0 Z 0 co i z Z [ H' > 0 r , HC 9 Cn 9 9 Co CO ' Cn W Z H Do CD x - CH H CO .Hd . 4 o 2 _ Q, i� • D,,- on Fri .< < < I< .e 04 .a .4 n 'n O to En til Cn Cn to Cn Cn n o MCI Co Co Co Co Co Co Co En 4 M Cn n cn z H ro z H O O z \-- PII: PO ro ;vH O▪ Cn Cn tO Cn Cn Cn [n 9 x n o•r Cn Cn fn Cn CO CO Cn fn z [n m rt En • Czn E O H C .
