NOVA 1985 BOOK 62 PAGE 7.38 Director Keating apologized for not having taken pictures and failing to note that additional paving had been done. He clarified that this is not a hearing for site plan termination, it is an update on the progress of construction on the site with ' a recommendation that a hearing,be scheduled to terminate the site plan. He wished to have it made clear that the Clarks were notified by phone two weeks ago and a copy of today's agenda was sent out later; the implication that only a 1 -day notice was given is misleading. Commissioner Wodtke noticed that the applicant was shaking his head indicating that there was no phone call, and felt that we should send a written notice when something like this comes up so that we have documentation that notice was given. Commissioner Scurlock felt that the Board should consider the progress made over the entire five years since the site plan was approved, but Attorney Glenn believed the Board should consider the progress made in just the last six months. Attorney Glenn stressed that last May the Board told the Clarks to go out and start working and that is what the Clarks have done. They have spent over $100,000 on this project and for the Board to come back now and terminate their plan would be an unnecessary hardship. Mr. Clark stated that they have diligently pursued the completion of the project as they want to open Phase I as soon as possible. They have laid 700 feet of roadway over the five years; the electrical company is going to install the primary lines underground; they have built pedestals for the electric backboards. After Phase I, they will begin on Phase II. They have a permit from the DER on the proposed sewer treatment plant. They had a contract to purchase a plant, but it has since expired. They know that they have to sit down with the County and modify this. Mr. Clark stressed how hard they have worked towards this. 30
