From Page 1 Highways, for each road.The eighth map will show existing water features, streams, ponds, and future impoundment sites. (Future impoundment sites are also listed for Map Three. The commissioners haven’t decided which map to use to indicate these sites, yet.)
The ninth map will show public utilities, such as transmission lines, pipelines, sanitary landfills and trash pick-up points, and water supply.
LUKE, WHITE and Baumgardner decided not to order the more “subjective” maps, that indicated wildlife habitat or visual integrity.
The original 17 maps proposed by the Piedmont Environmental Council would have cost $3,000. The county would have had to pay $1,500, since PEC’s matching grant would pay the rest. There was no cost estimate of the reduced number of maps.
Also during their meeting last week, the Planning Commissioners talked about Elmer Jenkins’s request to rezone two small parcels of land near Amissville from agricultural to commercial. Jenkins wants to relocate his service station, which is in the way of the new section of four-laned Route 211.
Planning Commission Chairman Herbert Barksdale said he felt such a rezoning would be the kind of “spot zoning the Planning Commission was set up to work against.’’ But, he told Jenkins, “I don’t have anything against you personally.”
