Scottsville’s Town Council formally opposes a proposal to pipe James River water from Scottsville to Charlottesville, fearing it would hurt the town’s quality of life.

Communication and information sharing is key to this issue. If the Town of Scottsville feels it is being
railroaded, the immediate defensive nature will be counterproductive to any positive resolution.

Piedmont Environmental Council has some words of clarity on their site.

From the data that I have seen, the James River option would probably have the least environmental
impact; but what do I know? I was an English major.
