<br />nq <br /> <br />.-' ...j <br /> <br />TUESDAY <br /> <br />MARCH 14, 1972 <br /> <br />appraisal procedure in lieu of the quadrennial reassessment procedure heretofore <br /> <br />followed. Mr. Hanel informed Council that, if the responsibility and personnel <br /> <br />(one full-time appraisor) were placed under his jurisdiction and supervision, the <br /> <br />Commonwealth of Virginia would share in the cost thereof, thus making for no more <br /> <br />cost to the City than the most recent quadrennial reassessment cost. In addition, <br /> <br />property values would be maintained on a current basis, with the result--if <br /> <br />appreciation continues as in the past--the City would realize the benefits annually. <br /> <br />Meanwhile, Council recommended that Mr. Hanel confer with the members of the last <br /> <br />Equalization Board and invite them to express their opinions on the proposal at <br /> <br />Council's forthcoming March 28th meeting. <br /> <br />Council referred to the PJanning Commission, for its consideration and recommendation, <br /> <br />a request filed by Mr. A. L. Burch (Burch Oil Company) for water service and <br /> <br />connection at or near the intersection of Douglas Road and Route 57 East, outside <br /> <br />the City's corporate limits. Council was informed that, reportedly, residential <br /> <br />property owners in the vicinity will oppose petitioner's request if water service <br /> <br />is intended for other than residential purposes. <br /> <br />Council also referred to the Planning Commission, for its consideration and <br /> <br />recommendation, a petition filed by Mr. G. N. DeShazo, requesting the rezoning <br /> <br />of his propenty at 112 Starling Avenue to "P-2 Professional". <br /> <br />In taking note of Mayor Renick's recent decision to terminate his public service <br /> <br />as a member of Council and as Mayor at the conclusion of his present term, which <br /> <br />expires August 31, 1972, other members of Council concurred in Vice-Mayor West's <br /> <br />commendation of Mayor Renick for his outstanding leadership, sound judgment and <br /> <br />wise counsel during his nearly twelve years as a member of Council, the last six <br /> <br />of which he has served as Mayor. <br />
