Page 1 of 1 ACTION NO. ITEM NO. D.1 AT A REGULAR MEETING OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF ROANOKE COUNTY, VIRGINIA HELD AT THE ROANOKE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION CENTER MEETING DATE: January 12, 2021 AGENDA ITEM: Resolution amending and readopting guidelines for the implementation of the Public-Private Education Facilities and Infrastructure Act of 2002 SUBMITTED BY: Peter S. Lubeck County Attorney APPROVED BY: County Administrator ISSUE: Amendment and readoption of guidelines for the implementation of the Public-Private Educational Facilities and Infrastructure Act of 2002. BACKGROUND: The Public-Private Education Facilities and Infrastructure Act (PPEA) was enacted by the 2002 General Assembly. Va. Code § 56-575.1 et seq. The PPEA authorizes a "responsible public entity" (such as the County) to enter into an agreement with a private entity to develop or operate a "qualifying project." · Educational facilities and property, · Buildings or facilities that meet a public purpose and are developed or operated by or for the County, · Any improvement or equipment necessary to enhance the public safety or security of a building used principally by the County, · Utility or telecommunications infrastructure, · Recreational facilities, · Technology infrastructure and services, · Wireless broadband infrastructure, Page 1 of 3 · Any improvements necessary or desirable to any improved state or locally owned real estate, or · Solid waste facilities that generate electricity. In essence, most capital projects are covered by this broad definition. In order to enter into an agreement with a private entity for such a qualifying project, the Board must first find that: · There is a public need for, or benefit from, the project, · The estimated cost of the project is reasonable in relation to similar facilities, and · qualifying project. The project may be either solicited by the County or proposed unsolicited. The County must have adopted and made publicly available guidelines that are sufficient for it to comply with the PPEA before it can request or consider a qualifying project. In May 2003, the Board adopted Resolution 051303-4, which adopted procedures for the implementation of the PPEA. The Board in April 2006 and September 2006 again amended and readopted the guidelines. Since 2006, some provisions of the PPEA have al Services has published Model Guidelines, which were last updated in 2009. It is proposed that the County's guidelines again be amended and readopted in order to bring them into compliance with the Code of Virginia, and in order to incorporate several provisions of the Model Guidelines. There are presently no proposed or contemplated qualifying projects; this matter is a routine update. DISCUSSION: It is proposed that several amendments be made to the County's PPEA guidelines, including the following: · comprehensive agreement, detailing the relationship between the County and a private entity; · Clarifying the applicability of the Freedom of Information Act to proposal documents submitted by private entities; · Requiring that the County engage the services of qualified professionals when Page 2 of 3 evaluating the specifics, advantages, disadvantages, and the long-and short-term costs of any request by a private entity for approval of a qualifying project, unless the Board determines (by resolution) that such analysis shall be performed by County employees; · Requiring the County, if it rejects a proposal initiated by a private entity that purports to develop specific cost savings, to specify the basis for the rejection; · Explicitly stating that County staff are available to respond to inquiries and meet with private entities that are considering the submission of a competing proposal; · Requiring a public hearing during the proposal review process; and · FISCAL IMPACT: There is no fiscal impact associated with this action. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Board, by resolution, amend and readopt the County's PPEA guidelines.

D.2 AT A REGULAR MEETING OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF ROANOKE COUNTY, VIRGINIA HELD AT THE ROANOKE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION CENTER MEETING DATE: January 12, 2021 AGENDA ITEM: Resolution of the Board of Supervisors of Roanoke County, Virginia declaring its intention to reimburse expenditures from the proceeds of a financing for costs associated with the William Byrd High School renovations SUBMITTED BY: Laurie Gearheart Director of Finance and Management Services APPROVED BY: County Administrator ISSUE: To adopt a resolution declaring the intent to reimburse expenditures from future bond proceeds BACKGROUND: Renovations to the William Byrd High School is a project in the Roanoke County School Board Capital Improvement Plan and a contract has been awarded as of November 12, 2020. Any funds that are currently being spent can be reimbursed to the School Board at a later date with bond proceeds, if the County declares its intention to do so before the funds are spent. DISCUSSION: The School Board intends to fund the renovations of William Byrd High School with a combination of cash reserves and a scheduled bond issuance arising from the Joint County and School Capital Financing Plan. The School allocation under the joint plan allows for a County bond issuance on behalf of the School Board in 2021-2022. It is the intent to participate in the Virginia Public School Authority Fall 2021 pooled bond issuance. The attached resolution will allow the School Board to reimburse itself at a later Page 1 of 2 date. This resolution does not authorize the project or appropriate any funds to the project at this time; it merely gives the flexibility to include current expenditures in the future bond issuance, if the School Board chooses to do so. FISCAL IMPACT: This resolution gives the School Board the option to include expenditures currently being made associated with the replacement. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approving the attached reimbursement resolution for the renovations of William Byrd High School.!

F.1 AT A REGULAR MEETING OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF ROANOKE COUNTY, VIRGINIA HELD AT THE ROANOKE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION CENTER MEETING DATE: January 12, 2021 AGENDA ITEM: Ordinance authorizing the acquisition (with conditions) of Real Property from the Commonwealth of Virginia, located at 0 Old Cave Spring Rd. (Tax Map No. 076.20-03-05.00- 0000), 4555 Old Cave Spring Rd. (Tax Map No. 076.00-03- 02.00-0000), 4607 Old Cave Spring Rd.

BACKGROUND: In 2006, Roanoke County began working with Mennel Milling Company to assist with relocating its manufacturing operation from Roanoke City to Roanoke County to a 26 acre industrial site Mennel owned between Starkey Road and Commonwealth Drive. ! ! In 2010, Roanoke County worked with Mennel and the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) to request support for legislation in the 2011 Session of the Virginia General Assembly to authorize the exchange of real estate between the Commonwealth and Mennel Milling Company. The exchange of real estate would benefit the Commonwealth by providing VDOT with a more attractive site for an area Page 1 of 4 maintenance headquarters for the southwestern portion of Roanoke County. It was also planned to benefit Mennel Mill by providing additional land needed for their current and future business operations, as well as improved on site mobility for rail cars and delivery vehicles at their location off of Starkey Road. ! ! In 2013, Mennel Milling Company was fully built out at its current location in southwest Roanoke County. It attempted to acquire the parcel of real estate owned by VDOT adjacent to its existing facilities for future expansion through a strait purchase transaction, but was informed by VDOT that a swap was the only transaction they would entertain. As a result, Mennel acquired the former Fabricated Metals property nearby with the intent of executing the exchange with VDOT. The property Mennel acquired was for the sole purpose of facilitating the land swap and was of no use to Mennel. VDOT was involved in the selection of the swap property prior to Mennel acquiring same. During this time, VDOT changed its mind and was no longer interested in the land swap. The compromise solution formed was for the Commonwealth to declare the property surplus and convey it to a public authority for a valid economic development purpose. This approach was agreed to by all parties, and resulted in the County's Economic Development Authority acquiring the property at fair market value and then selling the property to Mennel. Subsequent to this, VDOT began to search for a new parcel for its Area Headquarters. Early in its search, VDOT identified three (3) parcels at the end of Clearbrook Village Lane that it believed would be ideal for its use. Roanoke County suggested numerous options for VDOT to explore that would not consume prime commercial property with a non-taxable use that would not encourage additional quality development. However, VDOT determined that the Clearbrook Village Lane site was its preferred site. As Roanoke County has no zoning authority over Commonwealth projects, Roanoke County is not in a position to prevent VDOT from choosing its preferred location for its Area Headquarters. DISCUSSION: intersection of Clearbrook Lane and Clearbrook Village Lane, in the Cave Spring Magisterial District, for the purpose of developing its South Roanoke County Transportation Maintenance and Operations Facility. district, and although the Commonwealth is except from County zoning restrictions, the Page 2 of 4 district. It has been the vision of the County that the Clearbrook Properties would be used for purposes that would contribute to the economic development in the County. It has been proposed that the County acquire the following parcels, located in the County of Roanoke (Windsor Hills Magisterial District), at the intersection of Old Cave Spring Road and Brambleton Avenue, which are owned by the Commonwealth: Address Tax Map No. Acreage 0 Old Cave Spring Road 076.20-03-05.00-0000 1.15 4555 Old Cave Spring 076.20-03-02.00-0000 0.29 Road 4607 Old Cave Spring 076.20-03-01.00-0000 0.49 Road 4445 Brambleton Ave. 086.08-04-04.00-0000 0.14 4441 Brambleton Ave. 086.08-04-05.00-0000 0.5 ! improvement of public highways, and have been held in the public interest since their acquisition. The Residue Parcels have economic-development potential; ownership of them would facilitate access from Old Cave Spring Road to parcel 086.-8-04-03.00-0000 (4453 Brambleton Avenue), which parcel is 4.3 acres in size, and could provide a desirable location for business. Pursuant to § 33.2-1010 of the Code of Virginia, the Commissioner of Highways may lease, sell, or exchange such residue parcels of land upon such terms and conditions as in the judgment of the Commissioner of Highways may be in the public interest, provided, however, that the Commissioner of Highways shall not use such parcels for any commercial purpose; upon such sale or exchange, such residue properties must be used for public use. In recogni order to ultimately facilitate potential economic development of the Residual Parcels within the confines of Section 33.2-1010 of the Code of Virginia, the following arrangement has been proposed: A. The Commonwealth will convey, by deed, the Residual Parcels to the County, upon the condition that the Residual Parcels be used for public purposes, including the uses of equipment and material storage and project staging. The Commonwealth will retain an easement in each of the Residual Parcels, enabling the Commonwealth to continue to use the parcels for its public Page 3 of 4 purposes; and B. If and when the time comes that the County desires to convey the Residual Parcels to the Roanoke County E the purpose of furthering economic development in Roanoke County, the Parties will execute a new deed with the following provisions: a. The County will pay the Commonwealth the fair market value of the Residual Parcels, as determined by an independent appraisal at the time of the transaction; b. c. The County will convey fee simple ownership of the Residual Parcels to the EDA; and d. The EDA will pay the County the fair market value paid to the Commonwealth as consideration; and There have been no changes since the first reading held on December 1, 2020. FISCAL IMPACT: To initially acquire the properties from the Commonwealth of Virginia, there will be no fiscal impact. However, if and when the County decides to convey the property to the EDA for economic development purposes, the County will pay the Commonwealth the fair market value of the properties, which will be determined by an independent appraisal at the time of the transaction. At present, the combined tax assessed value of the properties is $681,200. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of this ordinance. Page 4 of 4 ACTION NO. ITEM NO. F.2 AT A REGULAR MEETING OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF ROANOKE COUNTY, VIRGINIA HELD AT THE ROANOKE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION CENTER MEETING DATE: January 12, 2021 AGENDA ITEM: Ordinance approving the acquisition of permanent and temporary easements on parcels owned by the Western Virginia Water Authority (Tax Map Numbers 4330301 Roanoke City and 070.11-01-09.00-0000 Roanoke County) for development of the Roanoke River Greenway SUBMITTED BY: Lindsay B. Webb Parks Planning and Development Manager APPROVED BY: County Administrator ISSUE: Ordinance approving the acquisition of permanent and temporary easements on parcels owned by the Western Virginia Water Authority (Tax Map Numbers 4330301 Roanoke City and 070.11-01-09.00-0000 Roanoke County) for development of the Roanoke River Greenway BACKGROUND: The Roanoke River Greenway is a regional bicycle and pedestrian trail developing through the Roanoke Valley, linking the Cities of Roanoke and Salem, the Town of Vinton, and Roanoke and Botetourt Counties. In 2018, the Roanoke Valley Greenway Commission made the Roanoke River Greenway its number one priority in the update to the Roanoke Valley Greenway Plan. For Roanoke County, this greenway is the primary non-motorized transportation facility linking the downtown urban area to the County Comprehensive Master Plan for Parks and Facilities identified the development of greenways and trails as a high priority desired by citizens in Roanoke County. DISCUSSION: Roanoke County is overseeing the design and construction of the Roanoke River Page 1 of 2 Greenway proposed between Roanoke City and Highland Road in the Vinton Magisterial District (VDOT UPC Number 91191). The greenway project is a Locally Administered Project with oversight from the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT). For federal-aid projects, VDOT is required by the U.S. Department of Transportation-Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) to certify local government compliance with the Uniform Relocation Assistance and Real Property Acquisition Policies Act of 1970 (Uniform Act), as amended, found in Title 42 Chapter 61 of the United States Code and the implementing regulations found in 49 CFR Part 24. The greenway has been designed and engineered by Hurt & Proffitt, and it will be an 8- 10 foot wide shared use path that is proposed along the south side of the Roanoke River. Temporary and permanent easements are needed for the greenway proposed across two parcels owned by the Western Virginia Water Authority (WVWA), identified as Tax Map Number 4330301 located in Roanoke City at 1502 Brownlee Avenue SE and Tax Map Number 070.11-01-09.00-0000 located in Roanoke County at 0 Underhill Avenue. On July 16, 2020, the WVWA Board of Directors approved the donation and conveyance of the required temporary and permanent easements, as shown on the attached plat dated July 23, 2020 prepared by Hurt & Proffitt. The attached deed of easement has been signed by Michael T. McEvoy, WVWA Executive Director. FISCAL IMPACT: The WVWA is donating the temporary and permanent easements to Roanoke County. There are no costs associated with the acquisition of these easements. The project design and construction is funded with federal and state Transportation Alternatives (TA) and Regional Surface Transportation Program (RSTP) funding. The TA program provides eighty percent (80%) federal reimbursement of eligible project expenses and requires a minimum twenty percent (20%) local match; however, there is no local match required for the RSTP funding. The value of the donated temporary and permanent easements from the WVWA will count towards the 20% local match required for the project. Roanoke County will be responsible for the future maintenance of the greenway. There have been no changes since the first reading on December 15, 2020. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of this ordinance.

Revenue Sharing Formula with Schools The Revenue Sharing formula establishes a mechanism to share County revenue with the Schools through the application of a formula. The formula accounts for the shifting dynamic between the level of student enrollment and the overall population of the County to determine a revenue sharing ratio that provides both organizations an equitable amount of resources relative to need. The allocation formula includes the following calculations: A. Calculate Three-Year Average: Establish a three year rolling average index for the changes in county population and student enrollment. Using a rolling average eliminates significant fluctuations from year to year while recognizing that these trends affect the provision of services. The statistics used for this index will be derived from publicly available sources as follows: 1. County population - Population numbers published in the statistical section of the Roanoke County Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (County CAFR). 2. Student enrollment - Average Daily Membership (ADM) published in the statistical section of the Roanoke County Schools Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (School CAFR) and the Budget and Salary Scales (adopted budget). B. Calculate Net Allocation Change: 1. Calculate a payroll factor using the percentage of school personnel budget to total personnel budget for the County and the Schools for the current year. 2. The payroll factor should be applied to the change in the three year rolling average index and then applied to the current year index to arrive at a net tax allocation change for the new budget year. C. Calculate Increase/(Decrease) in School Transfer: 1. Apply the net tax allocation change to the allocation percent calculated in the prior year to arrive at the new percent of adopted budget net taxes. This percent is then applied to the projected County revenues for total general property taxes and total other local taxes as published in the Roanoke County Annual Financial Plan (General Fund Summary of Revenue). 2. Supervisors action) will be subtracted from the General Property and Local Tax projection. 3. New economic development incentives will be subtracted from the General Property and Local Tax projection and added back when each incentive arrangement expires. 4. Increases in the amount budgeted for Comprehensive Services Act (CPMT) will be subtracted from the General Property and Local Tax projection (since this provides benefits to and satisfies obligations of both the school and general population). 5. The increase or decrease in the school transfer is then added to or deducted from the transfer to schools for the previous year to arrive at the total transfer to schools for the next budget.
