At this point, Chairman Johnson opened the floor for public
comments. Mr. Garber did stress that the plan involves secondary
roads only. Supervisor Compton stated his preference for paving
as opposed to tar and gravel and was advised by Mr. Garber that
the Highway Department has been using slurry seal, which is an
improvement over tar and gravel; but at the present time, paving
is out of the question because of the expense involved.
Mr. Garber also received various requests for road improve-
ments from the Supervisors but not citizen requests.
A recording of the proceedings taken by Highway Department
staff and a full copy of the Plan are filed with the minutes of
this meeting.

OWNED BY NORTHVIEW CORPORATION FRONTING ON *
ROUTE 419 AND BOUNDED ON THE NORTH BY MCVITTY*
ROAD IN THE WINDSOR HILLS DISTRICT *
Mr. Hamlett was present and acted as spokesman for his
company's request. Chairman Johnson advised that the Supervisors
had received a copy of a letter sent to Mr. Hamlett from the
County Engineer regarding his request and asked Mr. Hamlett if
he had received the letter; Mr. Hamlett responded in the
affirmative. Some discussion then took place on the County
Engineer's comments in the letter to Mr. Hamlett, which mainly
consisted of apparent drainage problems that may exist if the
permit is granted. Responding to an inquiry, Mr. Hamlett advised
that for fill material he was using mainly dirt and rocks, and
occasionally tree stumps.
Chairman Johnson asked if anyone was present in opposition
and recognized Mr. Roger A. Lorden, 4390 Sheldon Drive, S.W.
Mr. Lorden advised that the resides on the north side of the
proposed operation in Cresthi11 #2 and opposed it for the
following reasons:
(1) type of fill - open invitation for the entire County to use
it as a dump.
(2) toxic wastes that may contaminate County well situated in th
vicinity of the property
(3) would produce more water runoff in the area; thereby causing
an undue hardship on area residents
(4) this type of operation would be unsightly in an area which
is very scenic.
Approximately 11 persons stood in opposition to the request
The Chairman then recognized Mr. William Brenton, President and
representative of the Sugar Loaf Civic League, who advised that
the Civic League is opposed to the request due to the apparent
drainage problems and concern that this is the first step

toward a future request for rezoning. Mr. Brenton then asked the
Board to deny the request and refer it to the Planning Commission
with the request that an indepth study be made of the drainage
problem and thorough review of future plans and their total
impact. Mr. Brenton also stated that this would afford citizen
imput into the request. Mrs. Johnson reminded Mr. Brenton that
if, in the future, Mr. Hamlett wanted the property rezoned, a
public hearing would be held by the Board at which time any
citizen could speak on the request.
There being no further comments, Supervisor Terry moved that
the Board defer action on the request for approximately 30 days
and that Mr. Hamlett meet with the County Engineer and Resident
Engineer of the State Highway Department, to work out the
apparent drainage problems that may exist by reason of granting
such conditional use and report back to the Board within that
time. Mr. Park asked that the County Utility Director be a party
to the discussions relating to the property in question, since
he expressed concern about water and sewer facilities in the area
The motion was adopted unanimously.
IN RE: BID: MISCELLANEOUS COUNTY VEHICLES
In a report to the Board, the Director of Finance and
Purchasing Supervisor recommended that items 2, 3 and 5 listed
on the attached bid results be purchased from Dominion Dodge;
while item 4, automobiles, be purchased from Magic City Ford
for their low bid. A full copy of the report and attachments
are filed with the minutes of this meeting.
Chairman Johnson asked Director of Finance Chambliss how
the old vehicles were disposed of; Mr. Chambliss responded that
they are normally sold as surplus property at an auction.
Considerable discussion then took place among the Supervisor
and staff regarding purchase of these vehicles. Supervisor
Terry suggested that the County consider purchasing the trucks
from GMC since he thought they had a more maintenance free truck.
Purchasing Supervisor Turner then advised that in recent
years, Consumer Reports show that Fords are more maintenance
free. W. L. Rossie, Jr. County Utility Director, who was present
at the meeting, stated that he had been having service and
maintenance problems with the Dodges purchased by the Public
Service Authority.
This concluded the discussion and on motion of Supervisor
Compton, the resolution authorizing purchase of certain vehicles
was amended, the question was called on the amended resolution
and the resolution as amended was adopted as spread herein:
