Mr. Hodge advised that in accordance with the Board's direction at the June
8, 1999 meeting, he and Sheriff Holt have reworked the allocation and all eight positions
being funded are now for corrections deputy positions. This allocation represents
continuation of the four currently funded positions and funds for four additional positions.
In response to Supervisor Nickens' inquiry, Sheriff Holt reported that the
General Assembly appropriated a 13.7% increase on the state pay scale for all deputies
to become effective on December 1, 1999, but funds for this increase are being
appropriated to the General Fund and not to individuals. Supervisor Nickens stated that
on average the employees are receiving 3.54% increases.

A-062299-2
Budget Analyst Steve Kleiber advised that during 1998-99, the inmate
population at the Roanoke County Jail remained above capacity and that a year-end deficit
of $67,100 is projected for the Sheriff's Office. Roanoke County is reimbursed by the state
for salaries, mileage, office expenses, and for housing state prisoners, but many factors,
such as the state prisoner populations, general assembly appropriations and political
factors make it hard to determine revenue projections. Based on the conservative revenue
estimates versus the projected revenues anticipated to be collected from the state for the
Sheriff's Departmentfor FY98-99, revenues in excess ofbudgetforthese categories should
total approximately $250,000. The Board has previously appropriated $78,000 of these
additional funds for the elevator repairs within the jail facility. He asked that the Board
approve the additional of $67,100 of state revenue for personnel and operations
reimbursement and increase the Sheriff's Department budget by $67,100.

(Arnold Covey. Director of Community DeveloDment)
Mr. Covey advised that this is a housekeeping item that needs to be brought
forward in order for this portion of Cortland Road to be accepted into the State Secondary
Road System. The County has a sanitary sewer easement presently located within that
right of way, and the Virginia Department of Transportation requires that the right-of-way
be free and clear of any third party rights or encumbrances. If the State ever releases that
road from state maintenance, then the easement would once again be in effect. He
advised that staff has no objection to the release of this easement and he requested that
the Board move forward with approval.

Ms. Hyatt advised that this is public hearing on the issuance of revenue bonds
and that the County wishes to borrow an additional $5,725,000 to finance the County's
portion of the joint Regional Wastewater Treatment Plant. The County previously borrowed
$13,100,000 to begin this project butthe costs have expanded so that an additional amount
needs to be borrowed. This loan will be at a 4% interest rate through the Virginia
Wastewater Revolving Loan Fund. There will be some contingencies in it so that as the
project is completed, which is scheduled for December, if there are additional amounts that
come up between now and then, they will be included in this supplemental loan. It is
structured such that if the entire amount of the loan is not needed, a lessor amount can be
used and paid back. She advised that this loan will not affect sewer rates. There were no
citizens to speak on this issue.

Mr. Harrington advised that Advanced Auto Parts Corporation is considering
a major expansion of their headquarters location on Airport Road and anticipate creating
a minimum of 200 new jobs. This expansion will occur on their existing property and on a
a portion of an adjacent 17+ acre parcel currently owned by Shenandoah Homes
Retirement Village Inc. This expansion of the Advanced Auto Parks facility and
construction of additional parking will require significant off-site stormwater management
improvements in the adjacent Boxley Hills neighborhood along Sierra Drive. The creation
of additional stormwater or any other development on this property would not be
permissible under the County's development codes. The County wishes to submit a CDBG
grant application to the Virginia Department of Housing and Community Development by
~,

439
the end of June for $700,000 in funds to design and construct drainage improvements to
the Boxley Hills neighborhood. This grant will provide the funds for the County to correct
a long standing stormwater drainage issue in this North County neighborhood. The CDBG
program requires that a minimum of 10% of the total project costs be derived from local
sources, either in-kind services or cash contribution. The County's share will consist of up
to $70,000 and of this amount, a maximum of $39,000 will be a cash contribution. It is
anticipated that public/private partnership funds will be used for this local cash match.
CDBG requirements specify that any localities considering a grant application must hold
two public hearings. The first hearing, which was held on June 8, 1999, was for the
purpose of soliciting general public input on Roanoke County's general community
development and housing needs. Three people provided comments at this hearing. The
second hearing today is for the purpose of soliciting public input on the specific grant
application and project proposed. He asked that the Board hold a public hearing and
approve the resolution authorizing the County Administrator to sign and submit the
application for this grant. There were no citizens present to speak on this issue.

Mr. Harrington advised that this is a petition to obtain a special use permit to
construct a life care facility which will include an Alzheimer's facility and general nursing
facility. The Planning Commission recommended approval with three conditions: (1) The
entire 4.50 +- acre site, including architectural materials, landscaping, exterior lighting and
signage, shall be developed in general conformance with the Williamson Road Design
Guidelines. (2) The site, including the realignment of Marson Road, shall be developed in
substantial conformity with the concept plan dated May 18, 1999, prepared by Balzer and
Associates, Inc. (3) Should the state issued Certificate of Need be denied for this facility, the
Special Use Permit will be null and void.
Craig Balzer, architect with Balzer & Associates, representing the petitioner,
described and presented the architectural rendering of the project which was dated March
22, 1999, and requested by the Planning Commission. He also responded to questions.
Supervisor Johnson stated that Condition #3 was not legal according to the
County Attorney and he proposed the following revision: (3) This Special Use Permit shall
be only for a Life Care Facility incorporating a nursing home and Alzheimer's care unit as
requested and submitted by HCMF American Home Healthcare on April 23, 1999. The
approval of this permit shall not authorize the construction nor use of the property as solely
an adult care residence as defined in the Roanoke County Zoning Ordinance. Supervisor
Johnson requested that Mr. Harrington read the current definition of adult care residence in
the Zoning Ordinance for Mr. Balzer's information. He also suggested that the petitioner
postpone the issue until the next meeting in July, 1999. Mr. Balzer advised that they are
442
June 22,1999
required to have the proper zoning in place before applying for the State's Certificate of Need,
and that there is no time constraint.
Supervisor Nickens suggested two additional conditions which were: (1) This
facility shall be operated only as a for-profit facility; and (2) This facility shall be constructed
in substantial conformity with the architectural rendering dated March 22, 1999 and prepared
by Balzer & Associates, Inc. and exhibited to the Board of Supervisors on June 22, 1999.

has heard from some citizens who feel that they are being deceived about where their water
comes from and asked Mr. Hodge several questions. Mr. Hodge responded that there have
been no attempts to deceive, and it would be impossible to put on the water bill the source of
the water due to many factors. Supervisor Johnson described the history of water problems
