Allen, Deputy Clerk 1/13/88 Roanoke County Board of Supervisors cc: File League of Older Americans A-12688-1 ITEM NUMBER AT A REGULAR MEETING OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF ROANOKE COUNTY, VIRGINIA HELD AT THE ROANOKE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION CENTER MEETING DATE: January 26, 1988 SUBJECT: Authorization to Acquire Broadview Water System COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR'S COMMENTS: SUMMARY OF INFORMATION: The Broadview Subdivision is located in Roanoke County off Route 11 south of Salem. This subdivision is furnished water by a privately owned water system. The owner of this water system has offered to give it to Roanoke County. The Broadview Water System is in poor condition and is supplied by wells that have poor quality water which has resulted in numerous violations of the State Water Quality Regulation. In order for Roanoke County to accept and operate this water system, it would be necessary to abandon the wells and supply water from the Big Hill water transmission line that is within 200 feet of the subdivision. The cost of this interconnection would be approximately $4,000. The cost to upgrade the entire water distribution system to an adequate status is estimated to be $85,000. It is proposed that this upgrade not be done unless the residents in this subdivision make a significant capital contribution toward this cost. It does not appear reasonable that the County would be expected to expend large sums of money to upgrade a newly acquired water system, instead of upgrading existing County owned systems that are also inadequate. FISCAL IMPACT: The initial cost to acquire the Broadview Water System will be $4,000 for the interconnection to Big Hill. The maintenance cost for this system will be higher than average due to the condition and age of the distribution system. A realistic cost estimate for maintenance cannot be made. z: -/ RECOMMENDATION: Staff makes the following recommendations: 1. Roanoke County accept the Broadview Water System. 2. The Board of Supervisors authorize a $4,000 appropriation from the Utility Fund to connect the Broadview Water System to the Big Hill transmission line. 3. The Board of Supervisors authorize the County Administrator to execute the necessary documents to effect this transfer as soon as possible. 4. That upgrade of this water system not be made at this time unless the residents petition for an upgrade and also make a major contribution toward the cost of such an upgrade.

Mr. McQuarrie has recently purchased a home and has found that the septic system is not functioning properly and has led to contamination of his well. Approved plans for the development of Queen's Court subdivision allow a sewer line to be installed in the street in front of Mr. McQuarrie's home. Because of elevation, Mr. McQuarrie can only have gravity flow to the line if it is installed behind his home. This would require the acquisition of an easement across the property adjacent to Mr. McQuarrie, in addition to moving some sheds and out buildings (see attached sheet). The developer of the project has agreed to change the design of the sewer line and work with the property owners. Mr. McQuarrie is willing to pay a reasonable price for the easement and replace the out buildings; however, the property owner is not willing to consider an easement across his property. ALTERNATIVES: - Leave malfunctioning drainfield as is. - Allow Mr. McQuarrie to replace drainfield. - Allow the sewer system for Queen's Court Subdivision to be installed as designed and require Mr. McQuarrie to pump to the public sewer. - Assist Mr. McQuarrie in the acquisition of the necessary easement. FISCAL IMPACT: No funding is required. RECOMMENDATION: s_ 7 The County does not acquire easements for private developments, however, staff feels a responsibility to assist an existing resident when health and safety may be involved. It is recommended that staff be allowed to assist in acquiring this easement (through eminent domain if required), and that Mr. McQuarrie pay for the costs associated with this acquisition.
