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: March 10, 2026
AGENDA ITEM: Public hearing for citizen comments on the Real Estate
effective tax rate for calendar year 2026
SUBMITTED BY: Laurie Gearheart
Chief Financial Officer
APPROVED BY: Richard L. Caywood
County Administrator
ISSUE:
Conduct a public hearing for citizen comment on the effective Real Estate tax rate for
calendar year 2026.
BACKGROUND:
Per the Code of Virginia, 58.1-3321, when any annual reassessment (in the County of
Roanoke) of real property would result in an increase of one percent or more in the total
real property tax levies excluding new construction, a calculation known as the "effective
tax rate increase" is required to be completed. The County of Roanoke's real property
assessments, excluding new construction, increased by 6.08% over the previous year.
Therefore, per State Code, the County must calculate the effective tax rate increase,
advertise the effective tax rate increase, and conduct a public hearing pertaining to the
effective tax rate increase.
The Code of Virginia requires specific language to be included in the advertisement of
the effective tax rate. The advertisement, published in the Cardinal News on February 7,
2026, the Roanoke Rambler on February 8, 2026, and the Roanoke Times on February
10, 2026 and contained the following language:
"The County of Roanoke, Virginia proposes to increase property tax levies.
1. Assessment Increase: Total assessed value of real property, excluding additional
assessments due to new construction or improvements to property, exceeds last
Page 2 of 3
year’s total assessed value of real property by 6.08 percent.
2. Lowered Rate Necessary to Offset Increased Assessment: The tax rate which
would levy the same amount of real estate tax as last year, when multiplied by
the new total assessed value of real estate with the exclusions mentioned above
would be $0.971 per $100 of assessed value. This rate will be known as the
“lowered tax rate”.
3. Effective Rate Increase: The County of Roanoke proposes to adopt a tax rate of
no greater than $1.03 per $100 of assessed value, which is currently no change
over the current tax rate. The difference between the lowered tax rate and the
proposed rate would be approximately $0.059 per $100 or 5.73 percent. This
difference will be known as the “effective tax rate increase”.
Individual property taxes may, however, increase at a percentage greater than or
less than the above percentage.
4. Proposed General Government Total Budget Increase: Based on the proposed
real property tax rate and changes in other revenue, the total General
Government budget of the County of Roanoke is estimated to exceed last year’s
amended budget by 4.43 percent.
Inflation as of December 2025 is 2.68%. Adjusted for inflation, the tax rate which would
levy the same amount of real estate tax as last year, when multiplied by the new total
assessed value of real estate with exclusions mentioned above, would be $0.996 per
$100 of assessed value.
These rates are summarized below:
A public hearing on the increase will be held on the 10th day of March 2026 at the
Roanoke County Administration Center located at 5204 Bernard Drive, Roanoke,
Virginia 24018, at 2:00 p.m. or as soon thereafter as the matter may be heard."
DISCUSSION:
The public hearing scheduled for March 10, 2026, is to receive written and oral
comments on the Real Estate effective tax rate as defined by the Code of Virginia for
calendar year 2026. The public hearing was advertised in the Cardinal News on
Page 3 of 3
February 7, 2026, the Roanoke Rambler on February 8, 2026, and the Roanoke Times
on February 10, 2026, thereby satisfying State code requirements for public notice.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no fiscal impact associated with this public hearing.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends conducting the public hearing to receive citizen comments on the
Real Estate effective tax rate for calendar year 2026.

MEETING DATE: March 10, 2026
AGENDA ITEM: Ordinance Accepting and Appropriating $25,000 from the

APPROVED BY: Richard L. Caywood
County Administrator
ISSUE:
Ordinance Accepting and Appropriating $25,000 from the Virginia Department of
Criminal Justice Services, FY2026 Unmanned Aircraft Trade and Replace Grant
Program.
BACKGROUND:
The Virginia Department of Criminal Justice Services has awarded funding to the
Roanoke County Police Department in the amount of $25,000. Applicants for this
competitive solicitation were awarded grants for a twelve (12) month period, from
January 1, 2026, to December 30, 2026. The Virginia Department of Criminal Justice
Services (DCJS) announced the availability of grant funds to support first responder
agencies in replacing certain unmanned aircraft through the Unmanned Aircraft Trade
and Replace Grant Program. Only local first responder agencies in Virginia are eligible
for this grant program. This is a one-time grant for the purchase of a replacement
unmanned aircraft.
DISCUSSION:
The Roanoke County Police Department proposes implementing the DCJS 2026
Unmanned Aircraft Trade and Replace Program Grant to replace all three of our drones
that are no longer usable under the new National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) of
2024. We will be purchasing one drone to replace the three that are no longer in
Page 2 of 2
compliance. The Roanoke County Police Department currently conducts drone
operations with unmanned quad-copter style drones equipped with cameras for search
and rescue of lost hikers, tracking and locating fleeing/hidden suspects, assistance with
K9 and SWAT operations, as well as surveillance during search warrant execution.
This new drone is imperative for the continuity of police services to our community.
FISCAL IMPACT:
No local match is required; however, approximately $10,000 of the current fiscal year
operating budget of the Police department will be used towards the purchase of this
equipment..
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of the first reading of the ordinance and requests
scheduling the second reading for March 24, 2026.

Association of Counties APCo Steering Committee. This committee was originally
formed in 1978 and is currently comprised of 147 local government and public authority
members in APCo’s Virginia service area. Costs are shared among the members to
hire legal counsel and experts to negotiate multi-year contract terms with APCo and
participate in significant rate cases and other important regulatory proceedings filed by
APCo in the Virginia State Corporation Commission. The work of this committee has
resulted in substantial savings for its members.
DISCUSSION:
The Steering Committee has finalized negotiations with Appalachian Power Company
for the 2026-2029 term of rates for services provided to local governments and public
authorities. Appalachian Power Company has requested that Roanoke County sign a
new agreement for the 2026-2029 term.

The Company represents that, except for Rider P.A.S.-P.A. (Public Authority
Surcredit), the rates contained in Exhibit A and Exhibit B match the rates
contained in the Company’s corresponding unbundled Standard Rate Schedules
(“Corresponding Schedules”), currently on file and approved by the SCC. The
Customer and the Company understand and agree that, throughout the Term of
this Agreement, the rates shown in Exhibit A and Exhibit B shall be adjusted at
the same time as the Corresponding Schedules to reflect the following: 1) any
changes to existing rates including, but not limited to, changes in base rates, fuel
factor rates, and rate adjustment clauses approved by the SCC; and 2) any new
riders, surcredit or surcharge factors, or rate adjustment clauses approved by the
SCC.
(c) The rates in Exhibit A of this Agreement include a Public Authority Surcredit,
which is set forth in Rider P.A.S.-P.A. The surcredit factors set forth in Rider
P.A.S.-P.A. shall be applied to the kilowatt hours (“kWh”) consumed by
Customer on a monthly basis during the applicable time periods.
(i) For the period of January 1, 2026 through December 31, 2029, the
surcredit factor shall be $0.00328/kwh and shall be paid to PA
Customers starting January 1, 2026 and continuing monthly
through December 31, 2029. This surcredit factor was derived by
dividing $2,054,847, the annual surcredit amount, by the expected
annual kWh consumption of all PA Customers (excluding PA
Streetlight Customer consumption) during this period.
(ii) At the conclusion of the Term of this Agreement, any remaining
surcredit balance will be remitted to the Customer in a form
agreeable to both the Customer and the Company.
(d) Securitized Asset Cost Rider. The PA Customers will not be subject to the
Securitized Asset Cost Rider or base generation rate reduction rider that may
result from a Financing Order issued by the SCC in Case No. PUR-2025-00116
filed by the Company.
(e) Base Generation Rate. The base generation rates in effect for PA Customers as of
January 1, 2025 shall remain in effect through December 31, 2029.

(f) Storm Cost Recovery: The following provisions relate to the Company’s
recovery of storm restoration costs incurred between January 1, 2024 and March
31, 2025:
(i) The PA Customers shall pay for the share of storm restoration costs
allocated to the PA Customers and deemed by the SCC to be prudently
incurred and part of a Financing Order in Case No. PUR-2025-00116. As
of July, 2025, the Company represents that the total amount of the PA
Customers’ allocated share of said storm restoration costs is $5,755,948.
The Company shall recover these storm restoration costs from the PA
Customers over the term of this Agreement from January 1, 2026 through
December 31, 2029.
(ii) For each PA Customer, the factor for cost recovery over the four (4) year
term of this Agreement shall be one-fourth or 25% of said storm
restoration costs ($1,438,987 per year) divided by the expected annual
consumption of the PA Customers.
(iii) Storm restoration costs will not be part of future surcharge/surcredit
calculations.
(g) Outdoor lighting service will be furnished to Customer in accordance with the
monthly rates, hours of lighting, and ownership of facilities provisions of Public
Authority Tariff No. 28, Schedule O.L.-P.A., or any successor or replacement
thereto (hereinafter referred to as Schedule O.L.-P.A.). A copy of Schedule O.L.-
P.A. (based on VA. S.C.C. Tariff No. 28) is attached as Exhibit B.
THIRD: Term
The initial Term of this Agreement shall be for four (4) years commencing on
January 1, 2026 and extending through December 31, 2029; provided that this
Agreement and Exhibits A and B do not provide any retroactive relief, including,
but not limited to, re-billing or retroactive rate changes. The parties agree to use
best efforts to consummate a new contract, effective January 1, 2030, prior to
December 31, 2029. In the event that a new contract, or an extension of this
Agreement, has not been consummated by December 31, 2029, Customer shall
continue to pay the rates contained in Exhibit A and Exhibit B, adjusted at the
same time as the Corresponding Schedules are adjusted to reflect any changes to
any existing rates including, but not limited to, changes in base rates, fuel factor
rates, and rate adjustment clauses approved by the SCC, and any new riders,
surcredit or surcharge factors, or rate adjustment clauses approved by the SCC,
until negotiations are concluded and a new agreement becomes effective.
During the Term of the Agreement, the parties reserve the right to re-open
negotiations to modify the terms of the Agreement based on current
circumstances, including statutory changes.

FOURTH: Voltage and Electrical Characteristics
The electric energy delivered hereunder shall be alternating current. The said
electric energy shall be delivered at reasonably close maintenance to constant
potential and frequency, and it shall be measured by a meter or meters owned and
installed by the Company. The Company shall endeavor to supply electricity
such that the variation from nominal voltage to minimum voltage will not exceed
7.5% of the nominal voltage and the variation from nominal voltage to maximum
voltage will not exceed 7.5% of the nominal voltage. The Company shall not be
responsible for variations in voltage in excess of those specified above arising
from causes beyond the control of the Company.
FIFTH: Metering and Service Points
Normally, the Company will provide one service from its distribution system and
all of the electricity supplied to an installation will be measured by one meter, but
the Company may, at its option, provide as many services and meters as it may
deem practicable.
When such multiple services and meters are so used, separate bills will be
rendered for each metered installation. The electricity will be delivered to such
point as may be designated by the Company on the premises occupied by the
Customer and shall be used only by the Customer and upon the premises occupied
by the Customer.
For the purpose of this Agreement, an “installation” means a delivery point,
building, part of a building, or group of buildings located in such close proximity
to each other as to constitute one operating unit occupied by the Customer.
The Company will supply the electricity required by the Customer during the
Term of this Agreement at such additional installations, beyond those being
served by the Company as of the effective date of this Agreement, as may, from
time to time, be requested in writing by an authorized representative of the
Customer. All services furnished to such additional installations shall be
governed by the provisions of this Agreement as if such additional installations
were being served as of the effective date of this Agreement. Service will be
supplied at a single voltage considered by the Company to be standard for the area
in which electricity is requested and will be available for general service to a
“municipality” as that term is defined in Section 56-576 of the Code of Virginia,
including any city, county, town, authority, or other political subdivision of the
Commonwealth of Virginia but excluding Public Housing Authorities and the
Commonwealth of Virginia itself.

SIXTH: Extension of Service - Overhead
The Company will make extensions or expansions of its overhead facilities in
accordance with the following provisions:
The Company will supply and meter service at one delivery point through
overhead facilities of a kind and type of transmission or distribution line or
substation equipment normally used by the Company. Whenever the Customer
requests the Company to supply electricity in a manner that requires equipment or
facilities other than those which the Company would normally provide, the
Customer will pay the Company a Contribution in Aid of Construction (“CIAC”)
equal to the additional cost of all such special equipment or facilities. The
Customer shall reimburse the Company for all state and federal income taxes
associated with this and any other CIAC required by this Agreement. The CIAC
described above will be in addition to any other CIAC obligation of the Customer
required under the remaining provisions of this Agreement.
The Company will, for single phase service for new loads up to and including 25
KW estimated demand, extend service not more than 150 feet from existing
secondary facilities of 300 volts or less having adequate capacity, at no charge to
the Customer. Extensions of facilities for service that do not meet each of the
above criteria will be provided pursuant to the remaining provisions of this
Section.
For service delivered to estimated new loads above 25 KW or for extensions for
loads 25 KW or less not meeting all of the criteria covered in the previous
paragraph, the Company may require a CIAC prior to the extension or expansion
of its facilities based upon an analysis of the economic justification of making
such extensions or expansions. Economic justification will be based upon a
comparison of the annual cost to the Company and the increase in annual base
rate non-fuel revenue. Annual cost to the Company equals the additional
investment in local facilities to serve the new load times the Company’s monthly
carrying charge rate of 1.13%; the increase in annual base rate revenue equals the
annual revenue from the estimated increase in the Customer’s power
consumption, exclusive of the fuel component of rates. If the estimated increase
in annual base rate revenue is less than the annual cost to the Company of the
extended or expanded facilities, the Customer will be required to pay the
Company a CIAC equal to the annual cost to the Company less the increase in
annual base rate revenue from the extension, divided by the Company’s annual
carrying charge rate. If the increase in annual base rate revenue is equal to or
greater than the annual cost to the Company, the extension or expansion of
facilities will be provided at no charge to the Customer.
If the Company has reason to question: (1) the financial stability of the Customer
requesting an extension or expansion of service, or (2) the duration of the
Customer’s electric service requirements, or (3) if the Customer’s service
In P
r
o
c
e
s
s
7
requirements are seasonal or temporary, or (4) if the Customer requires special
facilities to meet the Customer’s service requirements, the Company may, at its
option, in addition to imposing a CIAC as determined under the provisions of this
Section, (a) require the Customer to execute the Advance and Refund Line
Extension Agreement and/or (b) require a special minimum charge or definite and
written guarantee from the Customer in addition to any minimum payment
required by this Agreement.
If the SCC approves a change in the extension of service provisions applicable to
the unbundled Standard Rate Schedules that correspond to the Schedules in
“Exhibit A,” or any successor or replacement thereto, then the Parties agree that
any such change shall be incorporated herein as of its effective date.
SEVENTH: Extension of Service — Underground
Underground service and facilities will be provided by the Company upon
payment to the Company of a CIAC in an amount equal to the sum of (1) the
difference between the estimated cost of the underground facilities and the
estimated cost of overhead facilities that otherwise would have been required, and
(2) the amount as determined by the SIXTH Section above using the cost of
equivalent overhead facilities. Should the estimated cost of underground facilities
be less than the estimated cost of overhead facilities that would otherwise be
required, then the terms of this Agreement relating to overhead extension of
service will apply. In addition to the estimated costs described above, the
Customer shall pay the actual cost incurred by the Company for the following
abnormal conditions:
1. If streets, curbs, driveways, or other obstructions have been installed prior
to the installation of the underground facilities, or if terrain conditions,
slope of easement, or depth of trench required to eliminate potential
conflicts with anticipated grade cuts, render an easement strip unusable by
trenchers normally utilized by the Company or its contractors, then
Customer shall pay a CIAC equal to all additional costs incurred by the
Company as a result of these requirements or abnormal conditions.
2. If rock, shale, or other such conditions are encountered, then the Customer
shall pay a CIAC for the additional costs incurred by the Company in
excess of the labor costs the Company would have otherwise incurred to
trench and backfill, in the absence of such abnormal conditions.
EIGHTH: Extension of Service - Temporary
The Company will supply electricity for construction purposes, within areas
normally served by the Company, to loads of a temporary nature upon payment
by the Customer of a temporary service charge equal to the nonrecoverable
In P
r
o
c
e
s
s
8
estimated cost of temporary facilities required to serve the Customer, plus the cost
of removing the facilities.
NINTH: Payment
Bills are due in US$ upon presentation, which may include electronic
presentation, and payable by mail, checkless payment plan, electronic payment
plan or at authorized payment centers of the Company by the next bill date. On
all accounts not so paid, a delayed payment charge of one and one-half percent
(1½ %) per month will be applied to any outstanding account balances not
received by the Company by the next bill date. If the Company fails to mail bills
promptly after the billing date, the due date will be extended accordingly. It is the
responsibility of the Customer to notify the Company of any billing address
changes either through the Company’s website
(https://www.appalachianpower.com/account/settings/mailing-address) or by
contacting the Company at 1-800-956-4237.
TENTH Conditions of Service
(a) Inspection
The Customer shall properly install and maintain its wiring and electrical
equipment, and it shall at all times be responsible for the character and
condition thereof. It is the customer’s responsibility to assure that all
inside wiring, appliances and equipment are grounded and are otherwise in
accordance with requirements of the National Electric Code or the
requirements of any local inspection authority having jurisdiction. The
Company is not required to inspect such wiring or electrical equipment.
The Company and Customer agree that the Company shall neither be
responsible for such wiring or electrical equipment, nor liable for any
damages to persons or property caused by such wiring or equipment.
(b) Service Connections
The Company shall not be required to obtain easements or permits over or
under the property of another necessary for service if the terms thereof are
unduly burdensome. The Company shall not be required to provide
electric service until a reasonable time has elapsed after the Company has
obtained or received all suitable permits, certificates and easements.
If requested, the Customer shall supply the Company with drawings and
specifications covering the plot and structures requiring electric service.
The Company shall not be obligated to provide electric service until the

The Company will, when requested to furnish service, designate the
location of the service connection. The Customer’s wiring must, for an
overhead secondary service, be brought outside the building wall nearest
the Company’s service wires so as to be readily accessible thereto. In this
case, the Customer’s wiring must extend at least 18 inches beyond the
building. In all other cases, the Company and the Customer will mutually
designate a point of delivery best suited to the Customer’s and the
Company’s facilities.
If the Customer desires that energy be delivered at a point or in a manner
other than that designated by the Company, the Customer shall pay a
CIAC reimbursing the Company for the additional costs of providing such
service.
The Company will not furnish, install or replace service entrance cable.
(c) Relocation of Company’s Facilities at Customer’s Request
Whenever, at the Customer’s request, the Company’s facilities located on
the Customer’s premises, for provision of service under this agreement,
are relocated to suit the convenience of the Customer, the Customer shall
reimburse the Company for the entire cost incurred in making such
relocation.
(d) Company’s Liability
In the event of loss or injury to the Customer’s property through misuse
by, or the negligence of, the Company or the Company’s agents or
employees, the Company shall be obligated for and shall pay to the
Customer the full cost of repairing or replacing such property.
The Company will use reasonable diligence in furnishing a regular and
uninterrupted supply of energy, but does not guarantee uninterrupted
service. The Company shall not be liable for damages or injury to persons
or property in the event such supply is interrupted or fails by reason of an
act of God, a public enemy, accidents, strikes or labor disputes, orders or
acts of civil or military authority, breakdowns or injury to the machinery,
transmission lines, distribution lines, or other facilities of the Company,
extraordinary repairs, or any other occurrence beyond the Company’s
control, or any act of the Company to interrupt service to any customer
whenever in the judgment of the Company such interruption is necessary
to prevent or limit any instability or disturbance on the electric system of
the Company or any electric system interconnected with the Company.
Unless otherwise provided in a contract between the Company and the
Customer, the point at which service is delivered by the Company to the
In P
r
o
c
e
s
s
10
Customer, to be known as “delivery point,” shall be the point at which the
Customer’s facilities are connected to the Company’s facilities. The
Company shall not be liable for any loss, injury, or damage resulting from
the Customer’s use of its equipment or its use of the energy furnished by
the Company beyond the delivery point.
The Customer shall provide and maintain suitable protective devices on its
equipment to prevent any loss, injury or damage that might result from
single phasing conditions or any other fluctuation or irregularity in the
supply of energy. The Company shall not be liable for any loss, injury or
damage resulting from a single phasing condition or any other fluctuation
or irregularity in the supply of energy which could have been prevented by
the use of such protective devices.
The Company will provide and maintain the necessary line or service
connections, transformers, meters and other apparatus which may be
required for the proper measurement of and protection of its service. All
such apparatus shall be and remain the property of the Company.
(e) Customer’s Liability
In the event of loss or injury to the Company’s property through misuse
by, or the negligence of, the Customer or the Customer’s agents or
employees, the Customer shall be obligated for and shall pay to the
Company the full cost of repairing or replacing such property. The
Customer shall be responsible for the entire cost incurred in relocating a
Company pole if the Customer jeopardizes the integrity of the pole.
The Customer and the Customer's agents and employees shall not tamper
with, interfere with or break the seals of any meters used by the Company,
regardless of ownership, or any Company-owned equipment installed on
the Customer’s premises, and the Customer assumes all liability for the
consequences thereof. The Customer hereby agrees that no one, except the
agents and the employees of the Company shall be allowed to make any
internal or external adjustments to any installed meter used by the
Company, regardless of ownership, or any other piece of apparatus that
belongs to the Company.
The Company shall have the right at all reasonable hours and in
emergencies to enter the premises of the Customer for the purpose of
installing, reading, removing, testing, repairing, replacing or otherwise
disposing of meters used by the Company, regardless of ownership and all
Company owned apparatus and property. The Company shall have the
right to discontinue electric service if such access at any time is not
provided. The Company shall also have the right to remove any or all of
In P
r
o
c
e
s
s
11
the Company’s property in the event of the termination of this Agreement
for any reason.
(f) Location and Maintenance of Company’s Equipment
In order to provide service to the Customer, the Company shall have the
right to construct its poles, lines and circuits on the Customer’s property
and to place its transformers and other apparatus on the property or within
the buildings of the Customer, at a point or points convenient for such
purpose.
The Customer shall provide suitable space for the installation of necessary
measuring instruments at an outside location, where practicable,
designated by the Company, so that such instruments will be protected
from injury by the elements or through the negligence or deliberate acts of
the Customer, its agents and employees. Such space for measuring
instruments should be unobstructed, readily accessible, and safe and
convenient for reading, testing and servicing by the Company. Such
permission, however, shall not be deemed in any manner to amount to a
franchise awarded pursuant to the Constitution and the laws of the
Commonwealth of Virginia, nor abridge the Customer’s continuing
exercise of its police power over the public streets, alleys and other public
places.
(g) Use of Energy by Customer
The Customer may not change from one PA Schedule to another PA
Schedule during the Term of the contract except with the consent of the
Company.
The service connections, transformers, meters and appliances supplied by
the Company for the Customer have a definite capacity; no additions to
the equipment, or load connected thereto, shall be allowed except by
consent of the Company.
The Customer shall install only motors, apparatus or appliances which are
suitable for operation in connection with the character of the service
supplied by the Company, and which shall not be detrimental to the
Company’s supply of electricity to other customers. The electric power
shall not be used in such a manner as to cause unwarranted voltage
fluctuations or disturbances in the Company’s transmission or distribution
systems. The Company shall be the sole judge as to the suitability of
apparatus or appliances, and also as to whether the operation of such
apparatus or appliances is or will be detrimental to its general service.
In P
r
o
c
e
s
s
12
The operation of certain electrical equipment can result in disturbances
(e.g., voltage fluctuations, harmonics, etc.) on the transmission and
distribution systems which can adversely impact the operation of
equipment for other customers. Customer is expected to abide by industry
standards, such as those contained in ANSI/IEEE 519 or the IEEE/GE

The Customer shall make no attachment of any kind whatsoever to the
Company’s lines, poles, crossarms, structures or other facilities without
the express written consent of the Company.
All apparatus used by the Customer shall be designed, maintained and
operated, so as to secure the highest practicable commercial efficiency and
power factor, and the proper balancing of phases. Motors which are
frequently started or which are arranged for automatic control shall be
designed in a manner that gives maximum starting torque with minimum
current flow, and shall be equipped with controlling devices approved by
the Company. The Customer shall give reasonable notification to the
Company of any anticipated increases or decreases in its connected load to
prevent operating problems with the Company’s facilities.
Except as otherwise agreed by the parties to this Agreement, the Customer
shall not be permitted to operate its own generating equipment in parallel
with the Company’s service except with the express written consent of the
Company.
The resale of energy provided to the Customer by the Company under this
Agreement is not permitted.

The rates set forth in this Schedule are based upon delivery and measurement of energy at the same voltage. When the
measurement of energy occurs at a voltage different than the delivery voltage, the measurement of energy will be compensated to
the delivery voltage. At the sole discretion of the Company, such compensation may be achieved through the use of loss
compensating equipment, the use of formulas to calculate losses, or the application of multipliers to the metered quantities. In such
cases, metered kWh, kW and KVAR will be adjusted for billing purposes. In cases where multipliers are used to adjust metered
usage, the adjustment shall be as follows:
(a) Measurements taken at the low-side of a customer-owned transformer will be multiplied by 1.01.
(b) Measurements taken at the high-side of a Company-owned transformer will be multiplied by 0.98.

This Schedule is subject to all terms and conditions contained in the agreement for electric service between the Company
and each city, county, and town governmental authority for service.
The above rates under Section A and B are based on the Company’s investment in standard facilities in the amount as shown
adjacent to the rate. When the investment in new standard facilities, including costs for service from underground, exceeds the
predescribed amount, the difference will be paid to the Company by the Customer as a Contribution in Aid of Construction (CIAC).
The customer shall also reimburse the Company for all state and federal income taxes associated with the CIAC.
Decorative and other non-standard fixtures and/or poles are not included in the above street lighting rate but may be installed
at the Company’s option. For new installations of more than 50 decorative or non-standard fixtures and related facilities by a single
customer, the Company will install and maintain the non-standard facilities subject to the monthly charges for a standard street
light of equivalent wattage in Sections A and B above and subject to the Company receiving the difference between the installed
cost of the non-standard facilities and the Cost of Facilities included in the rates in Section A and B above. The Customer agrees
to maintain a stock of replacement poles, fixtures and lamps which the Company will acquire, as needed to accomplish
replacements. Charges and provisions of service for new installations of less than 50 non-standard fixtures and/or poles will be
subject to individual negotiations.
Existing street lighting facilities served on Company owned poles served from underground distribution will be billed under
the rates contained in Section B.
The Customer and the Company agree that, whenever practicable, the Company will honor the Customer’s requests
regarding the appropriate light level and temperature for street lighting applications to avoid overlighting, underlighting, and light
intrusion.
CONVERSION CHARGE
Except as noted below, upon Customer request, the Company will convert an existing non-LED luminaire to an available
LED luminaire upon payment, in advance, by the Customer to the Company of the applicable Conversion Charge. Where such a
request is made, the Company and the Customer will identify an orderly and mutually acceptable schedule for accomplishing the
requested conversion.
The Conversion Charge for replacing a working, existing non-LED luminaire to a LED luminaire will be $75.00.
In those instances where (a) the facilities being removed have been installed for 20 years or longer, (b) the luminaire to be
replaced is not functioning properly, or (c) the luminaire to be replaced is a non-LED luminaire that is no longer available, there
will be no conversion charge.
SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE
All service and necessary maintenance of street lighting will be performed only during the regular scheduled working hours
of the Company. The Company shall make a reasonable effort to repair lamps reported out within 48 weekday hours after customer
notification.

charges shall be based on the Customer's net energy for the billing period, to the extent that the net energy exceeds zero. To the
extent that a non -time of use Customer’s net energy is zero or negative during the billing period, the Customer shall pay only the
non-usage sensitive charges of the standard Schedule. To the extent that a time-of-use Customer's net energy is zero or negative
during the billing period, the Customer shall pay only the demand charge or charges and non-usage sensitive charges of the standard
Schedule. The Customer shall receive no compensation from the Company for Excess Generation during the billing period. The
Excess Generation during the billing period shall be carried forward and credited against positive energy usage (by tiers, in the case
of time-of-use customers) in subsequent billing periods.
The Net Metering Period shall be defined as each successive 12-month period beginning with the first meter reading date
following the date of interconnection of the renewable fuel generator with the Company's facilities. Any Excess Generation at the end
of a Net Metering Period shall be carried forward to the next Net Metering Period only to the extent that the Excess Generation does
not exceed the Customer’s billed consumption for the current Net Metering Period, adjusted to exclude accumulated billing period
credits carried forward and applied from the previous Net Metering Period (recognizing tiers for time-of-use customers).
Upon written request of the Customer, the Company and the Customer shall enter into a power purchase agreement for the
Customer’s Excess generation for one or more Net Metering Periods. For Net Metering Periods beginning on or after January 1, 2009,
the written request of the Customer must be submitted prior to the beginning of the Net Metering Period. The power purchase
agreement shall be consistent with the Commission’s Rules Governing Net Energy Metering (20 VAC 5-315-50 et seq.). The Company
shall make full payment annually to the Customer within 30 days following the latter of the end of the Net Metering Period or the date
of the PJM Market Monitoring Unit’s publication of the previous calendar year’s AEP Zone day-ahead annual, simple average LMP,
or hourly LMP as appropriate.
Excess Generation is not transferable, and the Customer, absent a signed power purchase agreement as outlined above, shall
receive no compensation from the Company for any Excess Generation upon termination of service from the Company.

(Plug-In Electric Vehicle Charging – Public Authority)
AVAILABILITY OF SERVICE
Available for plug-in electric vehicle charging service to a “municipality” as that term is defined in Section 56-576 of
the Code of Virginia, including any city, county, town, authority, or other political subdivision of the Commonwealth of
Virginia but excluding Public Housing Authorities and the Commonwealth of Virginia itself, that takes Public Authority
Service from the Company.
Customers electing service under this tariff may choose from two available options. Option 1 allows for a stand-alone PEV
service in addition to their existing service. Option 2 allows for a PEV submeter installed to separately meter PEV usage within
the Customer’s existing SGS or GS service. Customers electing service under Option 2 must currently have an AMI meter.
MONTHLY RATE
Option 1 – Stand-alone PEV Service (Schedule code 068)
All PEV usage shall be metered through one, multi-register meter capable of measuring electrical energy consumption during
on-peak and off-peak billing periods. All PEV usage registered on the meter serving the charging systems will be served on
Schedule G.S.-T.O.D. P.A. rates as set forth in this Tariff and billed in addition to the Customer’s existing service.
Option 2 – Submetered PEV Time-of-Day (Schedule code 069)
A submeter capable of measuring electrical energy consumption during on-peak and off-peak billing periods will be installed
to separately measure PEV kWh usage. The Customer’s total usage will be billed at the Customer’s existing service monthly rates.
A credit will be applied to the Customer’s bill for all off-peak PEV kWh usage measured at the submeter and billed under Schedule
Code 069. A surcharge will be applied to the Customer’s bill for all on-peak PEV usage measured at the submeter and billed under
the same Schedule Code.
Each kilowatt-hour of energy consumed under Option 1 is subject to all applicable riders and surcharges. For Option 2, the
applicable riders and surcharges will be charged on usage metered under the Customer’s existing service schedule, not for usage
measured by the PEV submeter. For the purpose of this Schedule, the on-peak billing period is defined as 7 a.m. to 8 p.m., local
time, for all weekdays, Monday through Friday. The off-peak billing period is defined as 8 p.m. to 7 a.m., local time, for all
weekdays, all hours of the day on Saturdays and Sundays, and the legally observed holidays of New Year’s Day, Memorial Day,
