<br />1'" ~} <br />dA-.J <br /> <br />TUE SDAY <br /> <br />AUGUST 12, 1969 <br /> <br />City Manager Noland informed Council that estimates have been received from <br /> <br />consulting engineers of the cost of conducting feasibility studies to develop <br /> <br />information for Council's consideration toward (1) consolidating the City's <br /> <br />government and functions with those of the County of Henry, in total or in part <br /> <br />as to area served, and (2) initiating annexation proceedings involving portions <br /> <br />of the County of Henry. In acceptance of City Manager Noland's suggestion, <br /> <br />Council unanimously expressed the desire to confer with the Henry County Board <br /> <br />of Supervisors--as soon as possible--to ascertain the Supervisors' interest in <br /> <br />merging and/or consolidating the County of Henry, or portions thereof, with <br /> <br />the City of Martinsville. <br /> <br />Council continued for study a proposal for the purchase of microfilming equipment <br /> <br />(at a cost of $11,820.00) for use, principally, by the Public Works Department's <br /> <br />Engineering and Inspection Divisions. <br /> <br />After receiving the following report and recommendation from the Planning <br /> <br />Commission, pertaining to furnishing water service to a building under construction <br /> <br />at the intersection of Chatham Road and Clearview Drive (Mr. Garrett Wells, owner <br /> <br />and petitioner), Council was apprised of certain facts (involving set-back <br /> <br />distances, etc.) which were not known to the Commission during its deliberations <br /> <br />on this matter; consequently, Council withheld action on the request for water <br /> <br />service, pending further consideration by the Commission: <br /> <br />The Planning Commission at its meeting on August 5, 1969, gave consideration <br />to a request from Mr. Garrett Wells that he be allowed to tap on to the City's <br />water main on Chatham Road at its intersection with Clearview Drive in Henry <br />County. The Commission, following due consideration of this matter, voted <br />to recommend to Council that this request be granted subject to the following <br />consitions: <br />1. That the contract for water service include covenants limiting the use <br />of this property to those uses allowed in the C-l Commercial zone in the <br />City Zoning Ordinance. <br />
