Page 20f 3 November 9, 1987

Mayor Spiggle gave a brief synopsis of-the preliminary meeting with

C. L.. Lewis Construction Company and he explained that we're at a point where we can do no more. The Town has gotten the County to agree to a Boundary Line Agreement, but it will still take time to obtain the

necessary approval] expecially as it has to go before the Justice Department.

He informed Council that we have just recently learned that Route 460,

is a limited access road, which means you can not put the water and sewer lines in their right-of-way. -Easements will have to be obtained. The Town-can use the power..of "Imminent:Domain".. This being we can file

a. suit, begin construction, and negotiate the costs down the road.

After a lengthy discussion between both developers, negotiations where at a standstill.. The problem being. neither developer was able to agree. on a time schedule, or who would install the lines, and who would pay the pro-rata share.

On a motion by Mr. Conner, seconded by Mr.:Carter, Council voted that they would provide, water and sewer service for-the proposed shopping centers, provided an agreement is signed that-should the Boundary Line Adjustment fall through the "Centers" can not object ‘to an annexation suit should the Town of Appomattox decide to-file in the future or the developer will petition for a "friendly annexation suit.”

Bass-aye Carter-aye Conner-aye Hubbard-aye ~Webb-aye Mitchell-aye Motion carried.

At this time the developers went into conference to discuss the matter of. who will install the water and sewer lines, and Towh Council] went on with the order of Business.
