The request states in part, "It is our understanding that due to the close proximity of these utilities, the County could make them available to our subdivi- sion at no cost to the homeowners and very little cost to the County." County staff made a cost estimate to provide County water and sewer service to Nichols Estates properties. The estimated cost to provide sanitary sewer is $80,000 and to provide water service is $55,000. Staff also sent letters to the property owners to determine if they were willing to pay the connection fees and if they were will- ing to contribute money toward the construction costs. Of the nine- teen letters sent to property owners, nine were interested in water and eleven were interested in sewer. The property owners interested in service were willing to pay the connection fees. Only one property owner was willing to contribute money toward the construction in the amount of $600 for water and $500 for sewer. The Utility Enterprise Fund is structured such that funds are available for construction of off-site utility facilities, repair and replacement of facilities, and operating costs associated with operat- ing the utility services. The connection fees collected for each connection to the utility system is to pay for a portion (56%) of construction of the off-site facilities. The user rate structure funds the remaining cost of off- site facilities (44%), repair, replacement and operation of the utili- ty system. There are no provisions within the Utility Enterprise Fund to pay for construction of local utility facilities within a develop- ment or subdivision. Such costs are the responsibility of the develop- er or individual property owner. The utility connection fees which would be collected from the property owners in the Nichols Estate Subdivision would entitle them to have the water and sewer service extended to the boundary of their subdivision since these extensions would be contiguous to the existing utility system. However, the cost to construct the local utility lines within the subdivision would have to be paid for by either con- tribution from the property owners, County General Revenue funds, State or Federal Grant funds or a combination of these funds. 1 At the present time, funds facilities are not available in the Federal funds are only available averages. The County maintains a utility service or which have be( ment as having poor on -lot sewer or services can be planned when and if RECOMMENDATION: C - ;L.' for construction of local utility General Revenue fund, and State or to areas meeting certain low income list of areas that have requested �n noted by the State Health Depart - water conditions so that utility funding is made available. Staff recommends that sewer and water service to the Nichols Estates Subdivision be placed on a Capital Improvement Program list along with other such requests for prioritization and funding when funds for such projects are made available. Due to the unwillingness of the above property owners to contribute toward construction costs, this project may receive low priority. SUBMITTED BY: Cliffo aig, P.E.

COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR'S COMMENTS: SUMMARY OF INFORMATION: A potential well site on the property of R. William Reid has been selected by Geotechnics, Inc. The site is located in the Hidden Valley section of southwestern Roanoke County. R. William Reid has agreed to placing an option to purchase on the property at no cost and to a purchase price of $5,000. The option agreement allows Roanoke County to drill a test well on the property prior to purchase. If the test well has satisfactory water quantity and quality, the option could be exercised and the property purchased. The value of the property was appraised by Mr. John Willey, County Assessor to be $5,100. If a successful well is developed, it will be operated by County personnel and will be able to supplement the Hidden Valley/Penn Forest water system. FISCAL IMPACT Funds are available through the 1985 Bond Sales for water supply improvements. RECOMMENDATION: The staff recommends that the offer be accepted and that the County Administrator be authorized to execute the necessary option agreement. 1 SUBMITTED BY: Phillip -T.
