Caywood County Administrator ISSUE: Discussion of the County's Secondary Road Six-Year Improvement Plan. BACKGROUND: Each year the Board of Supervisors approves the County's Secondary Road Six -Year Improvement Plan (SSYP) and the construction priority list for the upcoming fiscal year . The estimated allocation for the SSYP is $2,195,398 for fiscal years 2023 through 2028 with $349,323 allocated for fiscal year 2023. DISCUSSION: SSYP allocations for Roanoke County are typically designated through the following two funds: 1) TeleFee: Generated from telecommunications providers paying a Public Rights- of-Way Use Fee. 2) District Grant - Unpaved: For paving VDOT-maintained unpaved roads with an Annual Average Daily Traffic Volume (AADT) of 50 vehicle trips or more. Fiscal year 2023 SSYP allocations from these two (2) funds are proposed for the following projects and accounts: Page 2 of 3 - Dry Hollow Road ($208,760) - Starkey Road/Buck Mountain Road Intersection Improvements ($13,120) - Ivy Ridge Road Paving ($2,214) - Webb Road Paving ($89,257) - Countywide Traffic, Engineering and Survey Services ($35,972) The SSYP is comprised of the following programs and components: District Grant - Unpaved: Three (3) VDOT-maintained unpaved roads are currently programmed for paving: Ivy Ridge Road: $2,214 is allocated in fiscal year 2023 with a $200,000 total project estimate allocated between fiscal years 2020 and 2023. Construction is anticipated in fiscal year 2023. Webb Road: $89,257 is allocated in fiscal year 2023 with a $250,000 total project estimate allocated between fiscal years 2023 and 2026. Construction is anticipated in fiscal year 2025. Berganblick Lane: $200,000 is the total project estimate, which is allocated between fiscal years 2026 and 2027. Other Prioritized Projects: These projects are larger reconstruction projects for existing secondary roads. Four (4) projects are included and several have additional funding sources: Fallowater Lane Extension: $1,495,521 in SSYP funding was allocated in previous fiscal years with $2,844,594 allocated from the Revenue Sharing Program (50/50 VDOT/County match). Total project funding is $4,340,115. The project is currently under construction with completion anticipated in August 2022. Dry Hollow Road: $634,760 is allocated in fiscal year 2023 in bo th SSYP and Revenue Sharing Program funding (50/50 VDOT/County match). The remaining SSYP and Revenue Sharing funding will be allocated in fiscal year 2024. Total project funding is $4,677,828 and the first phase of construction will begin in 2022. Starkey Road/Buck Mountain Road Intersection Improvements: $13,120 in SSYP funding is allocated in fiscal year 2023, along with $778,090 in Regional Surface Transportation Program funding. Other funds have been allocated in previous years or are available in fiscal years 2024 and 2025. Total project funding is $5,841,480 and construction is anticipated to begin in 2023. Franklin Street Improvements: $350,000 is the total project estimate, which is allocated Page 3 of 3 between fiscal years 2025 and 2027. Countywide Incidental Improvements: $35,972 is allocated in fiscal year 2023 for services that include plan review, right-of-way engineering, preliminary engineering and surveys, traffic services, safety projects, minor drainage improvements, fertilization and seeding. New Project: Timberview Road Improvements: $500,000 is identified in fiscal years 2026 through 2028 to scope and fund Timberview Road improvements. County staff have been working with area residents over the past year to identify roadway issues above and beyond typical maintenance concerns that could be addressed with a SSYP project. Preliminarily, these improvements may include pavement and shoulder widening at critical locations along the roadway as identified by citizens, lengthening certain drainage culverts and other spot improvements as the project budget allows. Through fiscal year 2028, $196,072 in District Grant Unpaved funds and $23,006 in unallocated TeleFee funds are reserved in a balance entry account. These funds could be used to leverage future applications through various grant programs, to support existing projects with funding deficits, or to fund new projects. FISCAL IMPACT: For the above projects that include Revenue Sharing Program funding, this funding has been approved through previous actions by the Board of Supervisors. Taking action to adopt the resolution approving the SSYP will have no fiscal impact on the County budget, as this is VDOT funding designated for secondary road projects within Roanoke County.

Page 1 of 4 ACTION NO. ITEM NO. E.1 AT A REGULAR MEETING OF THE BOARD OF SUPE RVISORS OF ROANOKE COUNTY, VIRGINIA HELD AT THE ROANOKE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION CENTER MEETING DATE: June 14, 2022 AGENDA ITEM: Ordinance accepting and appropriating $200,000 from the Virginia Tourism Corporation for the purpose of tourism marketing through Visit Virginia's Blue Ridge SUBMITTED BY: Doug Blount Assistant County Administrator APPROVED BY: Richard L. Caywood County Administrator ISSUE: Ordinance accepting and appropriating $200,000 from the Virginia Tourism Corporation for the purpose of tourism marketing through Visit Virginia's Blue Ridge BACKGROUND: The American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) Tourism Recovery program was established by the Virginia General Assembly to provide recovery funds to the Virginia Tourism Corporation and allocate those funds to Destination Marketing Organizations (DMO). Visit Virginia’s Blue Ridge (VBR) is the official destination marketing/management organization for the region including the counties of Roanoke, Botetourt, and Franklin and the cities of Roanoke and Salem. Visit VBR is a 501 (c) 6, quasi -government, trade organization that exists to promote Virginia’s Blue Ridge as a unique regional destination with outstanding quality of life, for leisure tourism, meetings, sports events, recreation and business, and to facilitate the financial and cultural growth of the community as an exceptional place to live, work and recreate. In short, Visit VBR is responsible for development and marketing of the VBR regional consumer brand. See the language from Chapter 1, 2021 Acts of Assembly below: f. Tourism Page 2 of 4 1) $50,000,000 to the Virginia Tourism Authority (320) to support local domestic marketing organizations, as well as the Authority’s marketing and incentive programs. Virginia Tourism Corporation (VTC) has retained the services of a professional management company, Horne LLP, as a partner in the development and implementation of Tourism’s American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) program. Horne will collect and review all program applications for compliance with VTC’s guidelines as well as broader state and federal compliance. The company will also be responsible for collecting and retaining all federally-required documentation to ensure that this program meets all federal regulations and can withstand potential audits. DISCUSSION: The ARPA Tourism Recovery Program will provide ARPA recovery funds to all 133 Virginia counties and independent cities through their local governments. The all ocation amounts for each locality will be available once the online portal opens. Recipients will have access to an online dashboard showing their total allocation and the available balance of funds throughout the duration of the program. Tourism generated nearly $1 billion in Virginia state tax revenues in 2019. VTC determined every locality’s ARPA Allocation based on how much each locality contributes to this $1 billion total. As a result, every locality’s share of the total award pool will be similar to the share that the locality contributes to Virginia tourism-generated tax revenue. Every locality will get a set allocation. These funds are not competitive. VTC determined every locality’s allocation based on the share each locality contributed to state tax revenue generated by tourism in the year 2019. Each locality’s share of the total allocation pool is similar to that share. Available funds have been allocated based on the relative share of each locality to total state tax revenue attributable to tour ism in 2019, based on VTC’s annual Economic Impact of Visitors in Virginia report issued by the US Travel Association. Locality results of this study are only provided at the county and county-equivalent independent city levels in Virginia - not at sub-county geographies such as towns. All plans submitted should be developed in conjunction with a locality’s existing DMO(s). If your locality has an officially VTC recognized DMO (as of July 31, 2021), a DMO Letter of Support MUST be included with your application. If there are multiple DMOs within your locality, each DMO MUST submit a Letter of Support. These funds must be used for tourism marketing and development, including media buys, advertising, public relations, sales, and product development. Funds may not be used for any expenses that are not related to tourism marketing and development. Localities will be able to draw up to 50% of their allocated funds upon approval of the submitted expenditure plan. Once localities have substantiated the initial adva ncement of funds, recipients will be able to request funds as they incur eligible costs. Each recipient will have access to Page 3 of 4 the online portal where these requests are made. All Requests for Funding (RFFs) must include attached supporting documentation for expenses incurred. Payments will be made as soon as administratively possible to Roanoke County after the marketing plan request is approved. Recipients must commit to spending all funds and submit the appropriate reporting requirements by December 31, 2023, or else submit a request by then including a detailed plan explaining how they will spend their remaining fund balance before the deadline, along with their RFF demonstrating what that expense is, when payment is due, and how the expense aids in recovery response to COVID-19. Visit Virginia's Blue Ridge will incur the marketing plan costs up front and Roanoke County will reimburse them for approved expenses. Visit VBR will use the allocated American Rescue Plan Act funds for Roanoke County ($200,000) to develop a marketing plan touting the County’s tourism assets including Explore Park, mountain biking, breweries, restaurants and various events (i.e.: Sports and Illuminights). The County’s many outdoor assets will be promoted including the Blue Ridge Parkway, Appalachian Trail, Dixie Caverns, the Roanoke River Blueway, greenways and retail shops (i.e.: bike shops). The key objective for all of Visit Virginia’s Blue Ridge (Visit VBR) programs is to stimulate the economy by increasing visitation, inc reasing length of stay and, most importantly, generating revenues in Virginia’s Blue Ridge for our government and 1,500+ business partners. This program includes a significant investment in paid marketing campaigns through social media advertising and Google pay-per-click, two of Visit VBR's most efficient and productive forms of digital marketing. It leverages powerful tracking and data tools to target and deliver engaging messages to potential visitors in key drive-markets and demographics who are looking for the type of travel experience Virginia's Blue Ridge can offer. Additionally, VBR will incorporate a strategic automated e-mail marketing campaign that connects with a consumer database of potential travelers and offers relevant content and stories ba sed on their interests in the region; ultimately helping them to convert them into visitors. You -Tube advertising is key to this plan since it allows us to provide video content and stories or suggest itineraries that highlight individual industry partners that might not be able to promote themselves otherwise. This is role for VBR in acting as a Destination Marketing Organization (DMO) on behalf of small businesses. FISCAL IMPACT: The $200,000 in ARPA funds from Virginia Tourism Corporation will be se nt to Roanoke County to be used by Visit Virginia’s Blue Ridge for an approved marketing plan by VTC. No match is required for the funding. Visit Virginia’s Blue Ridge will be reimbursed Page 4 of 4 by Roanoke County for all approved marketing plan expenditures. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of the first reading and setting the second reading for June 28, 2022. American Rescue Plan Act Tourism Recovery Program with Roanoke County Program Overview: The American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) Tourism Recovery program was established by the Virginia General Assembly to provide recovery funds to the Virginia Tourism Corporation and allocate those funds to Destination Marketing Organizations (DMO). Visit Virginia’s Blue Ridge (VBR) is the official destination marketing/management organization for the region including the counties of Roanoke, Botet ourt, and Franklin and the cities of Roanoke and Salem. Visit VBR is a 501 (c) 6, quasi-government, trade organization that exists to promote Virginia’s Blue Ridge as a unique regional destination with outstanding quality of life, for leisure tourism, meetings, sports events, recreation and business, and to facilitate the financial and cultural growth of the community as an exceptional place to live, work and recreate. In short, Visit VBR is responsible for development and marketing of the VBR regional consumer brand. This has been a difficult time for all of us but the future holds an immediate opportunity to attract thousands of new customers from our feeder markets (i.e. Richmond, Virginia Beach, Greensboro, Charlotte, & Raleigh). We know that there is incredible pent-up demand with a large portion of the population eager to get out of the house and experience the great outdoors. We know that people will still travel, but they will go where it is perceived to be safe. Consumers are comfortable taking mini-vacations in the form of day-trips or one, two, or three-night getaways to the mountains. They will travel to close-by drivable markets with large open spaces and avoid crowds. Roanoke County in Virginia’s Blue Ridge is the ideal destination visito rs will be looking to experience. Visit VBR will use the allocated the American Rescue Plan Act funds for Roanoke County ($200,000) to develop a marketing plan touting the County’s tourism assets including Explore Park, mountain biking, breweries, restaurants and various events (i.e.: Sports and Illuminights). The County’s many outdoor assets will be promoted including the Blue Ridge Parkway, Appalachian Trail, Dixie Caverns, the Roanoke River Blueway, greenways and retail shops (i.e. bike shops). The key objective for all of Visit Virginia’s Blue Ridge (Visit VBR) programs is to stimulate the economy by increasing visitation, increasing length of stay and, most importantly, generating revenues in Virginia’s Bl ue Ridge for 1,500+ business partners. Jobs are essential for bringing hope to our citizens so that they may provide for their families and bring a full recovery to the Virginia’s Blue Ridge region! Marketing/Advertising Programs: 1) Search Engine Optimization (SEO) - SEO is the process of improving your site to increase its visibility when people search for products or services related to your VBR in Google and Bing. 2) Google Ad Words - Pay-per-click (PPC) This is where we advertise and pay a fee each time one of the ads is clicked. 3) Facebook Advertising – Social Media Advertising generating more traffic to the website 4) Facebook Lead Generation – Social Media Advertising that generates leads 5) Instagram Advertising – Social Media Advertising that visually promotes the region 6) Pinterest Advertising– Social Media Advertising that visually promotes the region 7) You-Tube Advertising – The second biggest platform after Google that promotes the region through video 8) Print Advertising – Focusing on Annual directories and outdoor publications. 9) E-Newsletters – Monthly e-newsletters are sent out to potential visitors that have opted-in to receive information from Visit VBR. This is sent to 35,000 people monthly and we receive over 220,000 engagements (e-mails opened, clicked through or shared) 10) Bandwango – System that allows Visit VBR to develop packages with our partners and market them through an app that provides monitoring and a reporting system. 11) Cycling Field Guide and Marketing – Visit VBR is diligently working on defining the region as a cycling destination. This program would help us define VBR’s trail assets, allow us to develop a guide, provide information on the website and market this guide as a resource for cyclists. 12) Zartico – This is a system that will allow Visit VBR to measure the use of the ARPA recovery funds to support tourism recovery. The system pulls from STR Reports (lodging reports), Key Data (short term rental reports), and Google Analytics to provide a big picture on the effectiveness of marketing. In addition, it will provide heat maps of where visitors are going in VBR and credit card spending information to see where they are spending money. Not only will it allow VBR to see the effectiveness of our marketing but it will allow us to directly target our customer both geographically and demographically for a more strategic marketing plan. Public Relations Programs: The Public Relations Program works to complement the marketing efforts through earned, positive media coverage in key markets. By attending shows and hosting writers and influences in VBR, we establish connections that produce “third-party” authentic recommendations to encourage travel to VBR. 1) Public Relations Shows (i.e., Public Relations Society of America (PRSA), Mid-Atlantic Tourism Public Relations Alliance (MATPRA) and Society of American Travel Writers (SATW)) 2) Familiarization Tours and Events for Travel Writers and Influencers (including expenses for hosting, transportation, lodging, meals and activities) 3) Event in a new feeder market (Atlanta) for Travel Writers and Influencers – All new contacts 4) Cision – Software/Service that provides a database to identify writers and influencers, press release services, tracks articles and estimates the earned media value. 5) Public Relation Agency Services - Media Relations and Outreach Sales (Sports) Programs: The Sports Program is responsible for achieving a two-fold mission including promoting VBR as a premier sports destination for traditional and non-traditional sports and coordinating production and organization of a variety of quality sporting events that will bring sports competitions and spectators to the region. 1) Sports Shows (i.e., Connect Sports, Travel, Events and Management in Sports (TEAMS) and Sports events & Tourism Association (Sports ETA)) 2) Incentive Program for Meetings – This is a new program we have developed to help our meeting facilities with incentives group business. It supports bringing business to Virginia’s Blue Ridge instead of the competition by offsetting some of the costs to the Meeting Planners. 3) Sports Tourism Index – System that provides destination strengths, lead opportunities, and competitive analysis 4) Direct Mail Campaign – This program will allow VVBR to send items indicative of the region monthly for four months to be top of mind when Planners are thinking of where to ho st their next meeting. 5) Sales Blitz to Feeder Markets to incentivize and lure key planners to hold group meetings in Virginia’s Blue Ridge 6) Destination International - Economic Impact Calculator – This module in our CRM system provides an estimated economic impact to help VBR determine if a meeting or sports group is financially worth going after and provides the final impact of groups that do come to VBR. FY21-22 Roanoke County Marketing Program - $100,000 Marketing/Advertising/Public Relations Programs: Google Ad Words $25,000 You-Tube Advertising $25,000 Social Media $25,000 Blue Ridge Outdoors Advertising $6,600 Public Relations $18,400 FY22-23 Roanoke County Marketing Program - $100,000 Marketing/Advertising/Public Relations Programs: Google Ad Words $25,000 You-Tube Advertising $25,000 Social Media $25,000 Blue Ridge Outdoors Advertising $6,600 Zartico $8,750 Public Relations $9,650 PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: The key objective for all of Visit Virginia’s Blue Ridge (Visit VBR) programs is to stimulate the economy by increasing visitation, increasing length of stay and, most importantly, generating revenues in Virginia’s Bl ue Ridge for our 1,500+ business partners. Jobs are essential for bringing hope to our citizens so that they may provide for their families and bring a full recovery to the Virginia’s Blue Ridge region! This program includes a significant investment in paid marketing campaigns through social media advertising and Google pay-per-click, two of Visit VBR's most efficient and productive forms of digital marketing. It leverages powerful tracking and data tools to target and deliver engaging messages to potential visitors in key drive-markets and demographics who are looking for the type of travel experience Virginia's Blue Ridge can offer. Additionally, we will incorporate a strategic automated e -mail marketing campaign that connects with a consumer database of potential travelers and offers relevant content and stories based on their i nterests in the region; ultimately helping us to convert them into visitors. You-Tube advertising is key to this plan since it allows us to provide video content and stories or suggest itineraries that highlight individual industry partners that might not be able to promote themselves otherwise. This is vital to our role in acting as a Destination Marketing Organization (DMO) on behalf of our small businesses. In addition, we will build on our partnerships and look for ways to collaborate to strengthen ou r message and stretch our overall budget. Public relations will extend the reach of Visit VBR’s message to feeder markets, targeting media and encouraging them to come experience Virginia’s Blue Ridge. This will be done consistently through targeted media outreach and attending media shows and desk sides in key markets. Additional story angles will be strategically positioned to produce results even if media are unable to travel to VBR. The following chart shows the main programs and budget needed to accomplish the proposed key objectives listed above: Roanoke County 2019 2020 2021 Smith Travel Research (STR) Report Occupancy % 59.3 40.4 51.6 Average Daily Rate (ADR) 79.83 68.28 80.2 Revenue Per Available Room (RevPAR) 47.33 27.59 41.30 Based on the Roanoke County Smith Travel Research (STR) Report numbers listed above, we forecast, with the implementation of the funds to this program, to increase the Occupancy in Roanoke County to 54% in 2022 and 56% in 2023. With an increase in Average Daily Rate (ADR), Revenue Per Available Room (RevPAR) should exceed 2019 numbers. MEASURED RESULTS (estimated):  Drive 1.95 million unique visits to VisitVBR.com  Exceed 2.6 million social media and video engagements  Increase occupancy from 51.6% in 2021 to 56% in 2023 with RevPAR higher than $48  Provided research and measured results through Zartico. This is a system that will allow Visit VBR to measure the use of the ARPA recovery funds to support tourism recovery. The system pulls from STR Reports (lodging reports), Key Data (short term rental reports), and Google Analytics to provide a big picture on the effectiveness of marketing and real-time research.

G.3 AT A REGULAR MEETING OF THE BOARD OF SUPE RVISORS OF ROANOKE COUNTY, VIRGINIA HELD AT THE ROANOKE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION CENTER MEETING DATE: June 14, 2022 AGENDA ITEM: Ordinance authorizing the acquisition of a permane nt easement for Long Ridge Trail on property located off Twelve O'Clock Knob Road in the Windsor Hills Magisterial District (Tax Parcel ID 075.00-01-05.01-0000) SUBMITTED BY: Lindsay B. Webb Parks Planning and Development Manager APPROVED BY: Richard L. Caywood County Administrator ISSUE: Ordinance authorizing the acquisition of a permanent easement for Long Ridge Trail on property located off Twelve O'Clock Knob Road in the Windsor Hills Magisterial District (Tax Parcel ID 075.00-01-05.01-0000) BACKGROUND: Roanoke County’s greenways and trails are identified and prioritized in the regionally approved 2018 Roanoke Valley Greenway Plan, adopted by the City of Roanoke, County of Roanoke, County of Botetourt, City of Salem and Town of Vinton. Th e Greenway Plan identifies numerous Category 4 conceptual greenway and trails projects, such as Long Ridge Trail, that are to be developed as opportunities and resources arise. There is a high demand in the region for additional trails that help strengthen communities by providing local recreation opportunities and neighborhood connections between parks and greenways. The 2007 Roanoke County Comprehensive Master Plan for Parks and Facilities identifies the development of greenways and trails as a high priority desired by citizens in Roanoke County. The Roanoke County 2016 Community Strategic Plan identifies outdoor recreation as a regional priority and supports the expansion of greenways and trails. The Long Ridge Trail is identified in the Greenway Plan as a Category 4 Route that proposes a connection between Poor Mountain Natural Area Preserve owned by the Page 2 of 3 Virginia Department of Conservation and Recreation (DCR) and Happy Hollow Gardens, which is a local park owned by Roanoke County. Long Ridge Trail is undeveloped at this time and provides a unique opportunity for a future woodland natural surface trail. Poor Mountain Natural Area Preserve protects the world's largest population of piratebush, a globally rare shrub, which is restricted to only a handful of sites in the mountains of Virginia, Tennessee, and North Carolina. The Preserve is 1,326 acres with a small parking lot and natural surface hiking trails located on the westside of Twelve O’Clock Knob Road (State Route 694). Trails include a relatively easy 1-mile loop through the piratebush population, and a steep and strenuous 4 -mile loop that takes several hours to complete. The property is managed by the Virginia DCR Division of Natural Heritage. Happy Hollow Gardens is a 38-acre local park with a small parking lot, a wooden elevated boardwalk trail through beautiful azaleas, a 2 -mile natural surface trail along a creek, an outdoor amphitheater, and picnic shelter. It is managed by Roanoke County Parks, Recreation and Tourism. DISCUSSION: Tax Parcel ID 075.00-01-05.01-0000 is a 90-acre parcel located off Twelve O’Clock Knob Road between Poor Mountain Natural Area Preserve and Happy Hollow Gardens. The property owners (Justin Keith Belcher and Diona Harrison) have agreed to donate and convey a 30-50' variable width easement with a total area of 1.88 acres along the southern and southwestern boundaries of the property, as shown on the attached preliminary plat prepared by Roanoke County Department of Development Services. A portion of the property boundary from “A” to “B” is the centerline of an existing 8 -10’ variable width unimproved road, identified on recorded plats as the “Burket Road”. Staff are recommending that the future Long Ridge Trail be constructed north of and parallel to the existing road, and the easement width has been designed to accommodate this trail construction. Additionally, the easement width has been extended to 50’ on steep slopes to accommodate the trail construction. The property owners have generously agreed to donate a perm anent greenway easement to Roanoke County for construction and maintenance of a public access easement for Long Ridge Trail. The greenway easement will not be open to the public until such time as construction of Long Ridge Trail is complete. Staff recomme nds that the trail will not be constructed and open for public access until easements are obtained on adjacent properties to provide connectivity between Poor Mountain Natural Area Preserve and Happy Hollow Gardens. There have been no substantive changes since the first reading of this ordinance on Page 3 of 3 May 24, 2022. The only changes involve an update to the date of the plat, and one minor revision to the easement as requested by the landowners. FISCAL IMPACT: There is no cost to Roanoke County for preparation of the easement, as the deed and plat have been prepared by Roanoke County staff. Roanoke County will be responsible for the future construction and maintenance of Long Ridge Trail. It is anticipated that the Pathfinders for Greenways, Inc. will construct the natural surface trail with volunteer labor and help maintain it for Roanoke County. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of the attached ordinance.

ITEM NO. I.2 AT A REGULAR MEETING OF THE BOARD OF SUPE RVISORS OF ROANOKE COUNTY, VIRGINIA HELD AT THE ROANOKE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION CENTER MEETING DATE: June 14, 2022 AGENDA ITEM: Resolution supporting participating in the Virginia Juvenile Community Crime Control Act (VJCCCA) Grant Program of the Department of Juvenile Justice for the 2022-2023 and 2023-2024 fiscal years SUBMITTED BY: Laurie Gearheart Director of Finance and Management Services APPROVED BY: Richard L. Caywood County Administrator ISSUE: Approve resolution for VJCCCA grant participation BACKGROUND: In 1995, the Virginia General Assembly passed the Virginia Juvenile Community Crime Control Act (VJCCCA) to allow localities greater flexibility and autonomy to develop programs to better meet the needs of at-risk youth in their communities. VJCCCA is meant to be a community-based system of progressive sanctions and services that hold youth accountable for their actions and decrease risky and criminal beha vior in the future. The County of Roanoke has partnered for many years with the City of Salem to operate the Juvenile Intervention Services Program, located in the Court Services Unit, to provide direct services to youth and families. The VJCCCA grant funds four (4), full- time positions for staff who provide intensive monitoring, supervision and advocacy for youth at risk. DISCUSSION: The Juvenile Intervention Services (JIS) Program serves youth ages 11 -18, who are involved in the juvenile justice system in Roanoke County and City of Salem. One of the program’s primary objectives is to maintain youth safely in their home, school and Page 2 of 2 community by offering an alternative to detention. JIS operates two (2) programs to achieve that goal, an Outreach Detention Program and a Home Electronic Monitoring (GPS) Program. Staff engage with youth face -to-face as often as four (4) times a week, including a Saturday check-in, in order to determine their compliance, supervise their whereabouts and assess their needs in multiple settings. The alternative detention programs have a high rate of successful discharges, higher than the State average, and a recidivism rate lower than that statewide. For the upcoming grant cycle for fiscal year 2022-2023 and fiscal year 2023-2024, the JIS Program created a new program in response to changing community needs and will be focusing more resources on prevention services for youth contacting the juvenile justice system for the first time. The new Prevention Program will identify youth at-risk and will provide check-ins, monitoring, referrals and incentives to help youth decrease risky behavior and isolation and increase pro social behavior and practical skills. The JIS Program will continue to provide the successful alternative d etention programs in addition to the new prevention program. The City of Salem intends to continue its participation in the Juvenile Intervention Services Program and will continue to dedicate their local and state VJCCCA funds to the operation of the JIS Program. The grant requires the County to contribute $24,644 and the City of Salem to contribute $9,418 for fiscal year 2022 -2023 and for fiscal year 2023-2024 as the local maintenance of effort. The Department of Juvenile Justice requires that the attached resolution be adopted by the County of Roanoke allowing participation in the grant program and recognizing that the City of Salem’s grant monies will be used to support the Juvenile Intervention Services Program. FISCAL IMPACT: The grant requires the County to contribute $24,644 for the upcoming two (2) fiscal years as our maintenance of effort. Salem will contribute $9,418 each year. Those local contributions will leverage $232,833 in State funds. There has been no increase in the local maintenance of effort for several years. No appropriation is required as this was included in the fiscal year 2023 approved budget and will be included in the fiscal year 2024 budget. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of the resolution to continue participation in the VJCCCA grant for fiscal years 2022-2023 and 2023-2024.
