:33 TUESDAY MAY 8, 1984 The regular semi-monthly meeting of the Council of the City of Martinsville, Virginia, with Mayor William C. Cole, Jr., presiding, was held Tuesday, May 8, 1984, in the Council Chamber, City Hall, beginning at 7:30 P.M., all members being present, viz., William C. Cole, Jr., Mayor; L. D. Oakes, Vice-Mayor; Henry C. Reed; Eliza H. Severt; and Francis T. West. After the invocation and Mayor Cole's cordial welcome to visitors present, Council unanimously approved--as recorded--the minutes of its regular meeting held April 24, 1984, and of its special meeting held April 26, 1984. In tentative acceptance of the Planning Commission's recommendation that a property rezoning petition filed by Mr. & Mrs. A. C. Hall be approved, in which petition is sought a rezoning of Lot No. 42 at 807 Starling Avenue from "R-6 Residential" to "P-2 Professional", Council directed that a duly-advertised public hearing be conducted on this petition at Council's next regular meeting rescheduled for Monday, May 21, 1984, in the Council Chamber, City Hall, beginning at 7:30 P.M. Council acknowledged receipt of the following response by the Henry County Public Ser- - vice Authority to the City's counter-proposal (see Council minutes of April 10, 1984) to the Public Service Authority regarding sewage treatment facilities (i.e., proposed "diversion" of flows and expansion of facilities): In a meeting on 24 April the Henry County Public Service Authority considered the City's counter-proposal of April 10 regarding the diversion of wastewaters from the City's Jones Creek Interceptor to the Authority's Koehler Sewage Treatment Plant, and although no action on the matter was taken at the April 24 meeting, the Authority has subsequently directed me to advise you that the City's counter- proposal of April 10 was denied for essentially the same reasons that the City denied the Authority's request of March 30 - because it pro- vides no remedy for the Authority's future need for increased waste- water treatment capacity in the City's sewage treatment plant.
