Town Council enact ordinance 15.1-292 of the Code of Virginia. A section of the code that Krebeer alluded to reads: “. . . Such governing body may also prevent the pollution of water and injury to waterworks for which purpose their jurisdiction shall extend to five miles about the same and may make, erect and construct, within or near the county, city or town, drains, sewers and public ducts and acquire within or without such county, city or town, by purchase, condemnation or otherwise, so much land as may be necessary to make, erect, construct, operate and maintain any of the works or plants mentioned in this section...”

“Would Council like to study the feasibility of such an ordinance. . Miller asked. Much discussion followed, outlining a possible course of action to be taken. Miller suggested it might be appropriate to inform newly elected Council members of any action to be taken.

“It’s a logical step that Council and the new Council look (into such an ordinance) and if it could be proposed for public hearing in July, announce it in June,” Miller concluded.
