<br />:iG <br /> <br />THURSDAY <br /> <br />SEPTEMBER 26, 1968 <br /> <br />suggested his firm be given a "free" sewer connection, valued at $125.00. <br /> <br /> <br />This being contrary to City policy, Council directed that the Calaman firm <br /> <br /> <br />be paid the sum of $125.00 as compensation for construction inconvenience <br /> <br />and that the Calaman firm--if it desires a sewer connection--pay to the City <br /> <br />the sewer connection fee of $125.00. Upon being connected, it was understood <br /> <br />that the Calaman firm would pay the prevailing (or applicable) sewer service <br /> <br />charge. <br /> <br />Mayor Renick, noting along with members of Council (all of whom attended <br /> <br />the 1968 Virginia Municipal League convention in Roanoke, Virginia, September <br /> <br /> <br />22nd-23rd-24th) that the 1968 League Convention went on record as endorsing <br /> <br /> <br />the proposed Virginia bond issue of $81,000,000.00 for new and additional <br /> <br />facilities for higher education and mental health needs, inquired of members <br /> <br />of Council as to whether the Council wishes to go on record as endorsing said <br /> <br />bond issue proposal; whereupon, after some discussion, Council continued the <br /> <br />matter to its next regular meeting. <br /> <br />Dr. Dana B. Hamel, Director of the Virginia Community College System, (by <br /> <br />letter dated September 18th), informed Council that both Danville Technical <br /> <br />Institute and the Danville branch of the Virginia Polytechnic Institute are <br /> <br />now combined as an area unit of the Virginia Community College System, as a <br /> <br />result of which there is required the formation of a "Local Advisory Board" <br /> <br />whose membership shall be residents of the region served by the community <br /> <br />college, possibly with a representative from each political subdivision in <br /> <br />the area; however, it was noted that no member of the Board may be, at the same time, <br /> <br />a member of the Virginia General Assembly or of any local governing body. <br /> <br />The method of appointing such an Advisory Board, as outlined by Dr. Hamel, <br /> <br />first begins with the appointing of aD Ad Hoc Nominating Committee, consisting <br /> <br />of one member of each local governing body, which Committee shall recommend-- <br />for appointment by the State Board of Community Colleges-_one candidate for <br />
