Home My WebLink About4/9/1996 - Adopted Board RecordsACTION # A-040996-1 ITEM NUMBER 8- ! AT A REGULAR MEETING OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF ROANOKE COUNTY, VIRGINIA HELD AT THE ROANOKE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION CENTER MEETING DATE: April 9, 1996 AGENDA ITEM: Request to Approve a Sanitary Sewer Extension along West Main Street COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR'S COMMENTS: The Board may recall that this concept was discussed at the last budget work session. A policy will be developed over the next several months which will be a variation of the public-private partnership policy already in place. The current policy will be opened up to allow more people to participate. The objective is to assist neighborhoods having a certain critical mass that are already located near utility lines. The County benefits by increasing the number of citizens on the water system and the citizens benefit by improved utilities. The staff and / want to proceed with this request for four reasons: (1J several businesses in the area are having difficulties with septic systems; (2J two vacant lots are being considered at this time for economic development and will need public sewer; (3J this extension gets us closer to Cherokee Hills and Dixie Caverns landfill, both of which are in need of public sewer; A if we are able to work this through, we will develop a model for use in other areas of the County. This funding request is for general fund money. For future requests we should identify an allocation. General fund and/or utility money should be allocated to these projects. The projects will be identified by staff, reviewed by the Board and prioritized as we now do with road and drainage projects. BACKGROUND: The section of West Main Street between Fort Lewis Church Road and Daugherty Road is presently developed with a mixture of commercial and residential structures. Currently, these facilities utilize septic systems as a means of handling sanitary wastes. The Health Department has found that most of the soil in this area is not suitable for drain fields and has rejected several requests for new septic systems and/or expansions of existing systems. SUMMARY OF INFORMATION: The Roanoke County Utility Department has received a petition from several property owners in this area. This petition requests assistance from Roanoke County to provide public sewer to this area. (See Attachment "A") Staff has reviewed this request and feels that sanitary sewer should be installed in this area for the following reasons. L. eliminates potential health hazard from failing septic systems; allows existing business to expand (i.e., Glenvar Minute Market); allows public sewer to be in close proximity to Cherokee Hills subdivision which also has septic problems. The cost estimate for this project is approximately $175,000. Staff has received pledges from five property owners in the area totaling $54,520 for participation in the construction. Cost Participation: Glenvar Minute Market $ 8,020 Fort Lewis Baptist Church 10,380 Bohon Est. 7,840 McNew Property 8,280 City of Salem 20,000 $54,520 These costs are based on a minimum charge of $6,500 plus $20/foot for road frontage in excess of 100 feet. This charge also includes the $1,500 off-site facility fee based on a 5/8 inch water meter. Should a larger water meter be utilized this fee would increase accordingly. If the project is approved, it is suggested that this fee structure remain in effect for a period of ten years. The fee structure would be applicable to any property included in the West Main Street Sewer Service Area (as shown on Attachment "A"). Should a property owner not participate at this time, they would pay the construction charges as shown above in addition to the off-site facility fees applicable at the time of connection. The property owner would be given credit on these fees for costs they incur to bring the lateral to their property line. FISCAL IMPACT• Funding for this project would come from the following sources: Property Owner Participation $ 54,520 General Fund to Provide for Economic Development 120,480 TOTAL $175,000 Alternatives• Alternative 1. Participate in public/private partnership as described above. Alternative 2. Do not participate in the project and require the property owners pay all construction costs. The property owners could then be given a reimbursement contract that would allow them to recover a portion of their costs as other property owners in the service area connected. E.. I STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Board approve Alternative 1, allowing sanitary sewer to be installed along this area at a reasonable costs to property owners. This will also eliminate the burdensome paperwork of monitoring a reimbursement contract for various parties. SUBMITTED BY: Gary Ro rtson, P.E.
