RVTV was created in 1993 and since that time has provided government and educational media services for the three localities, and distributes video content via cablecast, live-stream, social media and on-demand. RVTV is governed by the Roanoke Valley Regional Cable Television Committee, which includes representatives from the County, the City, and the Town.

El AT A REGULAR MEETING OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF ROANOKE COUNTY, VIRGINIA HELD AT THE ROANOKE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION CENTER MEETING DATE: May 12, 2026 AGENDA ITEM: Resolution approving the Secondary Six-Year Improvement Plan for fiscal years 2027 through 2032 and the Construction Priority List and Estimated Allocations for fiscal year 2027 SUBMITTED BY: Megan G. Cronise Assistant Director of Planning APPROVED BY: Richard L. 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 $2,097,149 for fiscal years 2027 through 2032 with $344,212 allocated for fiscal year 2027. DISCUSSION: SSYP allocations for Roanoke County are typically designated through the following two (2) 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. The SSYP is comprised of the following programs and components: District Grant - Unpaved: Three (3) VDOT-maintained unpaved roads are currently Page 1 of 3 programmed for paving: Berganblick Lane: $200,000 is the project estimate and construction is anticipated this year. Boones Chapel Road: $400,000 is the project estimate and construction is anticipated in FY 2029. Honeysuckle Road (portion): $350,000 is the project estimate and construction is anticipated in FY 2029. Other Prioritized Projects: These projects are larger projects for existing secondary roads. Five (5) projects are included and several have additional funding sources: Dry Hollow Road: All SSYP funding in the amount of $930,217 has been allocated to the project, which also has Revenue Sharing Program funding and a current estimate of $7,433,802. VDOT is administering this project. It has been advertised for construction and pending a successful award, construction is anticipated later this year. Timberview Road Improvements: $500,000 is identified to scope and fund Timberview Road improvements. Construction is anticipated in fiscal year 2028. Hardy Road and Feather Road intersection improvements: $150,000 is included to improve sight distance at and approaching the intersection. Construction is anticipated in fiscal year 2030. Countywide Unpaved Roads: There is no funding available in FY 2027 for a new unpaved road project, although funding is allocated in future years that can be designated for a new project. Countywide Transportation Services: Approximately $60,000 is allocated in fiscal year 2027 for services that include plan review, right-of-way engineering, preliminary engineering and surveys, traffic services, safety projects, minor drainage improvements, fertilization and seeding. 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 2 of 3 STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Board of Supervisors hold a public hearing and adopt the resolution approving the Secondary Road Six-Year Improvement Plan for fiscal years 2027 through 2032 and the construction priority list and estimated allocations for fiscal year 2027.

Caywood County Administrator ISSUE: Approval of an ordinance to allow the transfer of certain funds between categories within the Roanoke County Public Schools 2025-2026 budget and to appropriate $1,509,502 in new funding. BACKGROUND: During the April 16, 2026, Roanoke County Public Schools board meeting, school staff discussed the Chapter 7, 2026 Acts of Assembly which provides funding for the state share of a $1 ,500 bonus per employee for funded SOQ instructional and support positions and this action was approved by the School Board. The School Board report is attached. DISCUSSION: The County Board of Supervisors approves the School Board budget by categories. The School Board will directly receive funds in the amount of $1,509,502 from the Commonwealth of Virginia for an employee bonus, which funds have not yet been appropriated to the Schools' budget. The School Board requests that the Board approve transfers of funds between budget categories as detailed out in the attached ordinance. Page 1 of 2 In addition, it is requested to authorize any additional transfers and/or budget adjustments required by Roanoke County Public Schools accounting procedures that are necessary to accomplish this action. FISCAL IMPACT: The various categories will increase for a net total increase of $1,509,502 for all categories.

F_3 AT A REGULAR MEETING OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF ROANOKE COUNTY, VIRGINIA HELD AT THE ROANOKE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION CENTER MEETING DATE: May 12, 2026 AGENDA ITEM: ORDINANCE AUTHORIZING EMPLOYEE BONUSES TOTALING $1,503,009 FUNDED FROM REIMBURSEMENTS FROM THE COMMONWEALTH OF VIRGINIA AND AMENDING THE GENERAL FUND FISCAL YEAR 2026 OPERATING REVENUES AND EXPENDITURES SUBMITTED BY: Laurie Gearheart Chief Financial Officer APPROVED BY: Richard L. Caywood County Administrator ISSUE: Authorize a one-time bonus for all eligible employees with funding in the amount $276,000 from the Commonwealth of Virginia and $1,227,009 from the General Fund and amending the General Fund Fiscal Year 2026 budget. BACKGROUND: The 2026 General Assembly Session approved a one-time bonus for constitutional officers and their employees and employees of local departments of social services. The Board of Supervisors has agreed to accept the funding from the Commonwealth of Virginia and pass this one time bonus to Compensation Board and Social Service employees. DISCUSSION: The 2.0 percent bonus for constitutional officers and their employees is calculated based on the Compensation Board-funded salary as of June 1, 2026. Additionally, it is proposed that all other full-time County employees receive the same 2.0 percent of salary bonus, and that part-time County employees meeting the requirement below Page 1 of 3 receive a $250 bonus. County employees qualifying for the bonus are further defined as full-time and part-time employees who are in active pay status at the time the bonus is paid. Part-time employees that will be eligible for the bonus are those who have worked at least an average of 15 hours per week between the dates of January 1st and April 24th. In addition they must be approved by the Department of Human Resources. Part-time employees who have not worked an average of 15 hours or more in the aforementioned time frame and members of boards and commissions are not eligible for the bonus. Section 15.2-1508 of the Code of Virginia, as amended, authorizes the governing body of any city, county, or town to pay a monetary bonus. The payment of the bonus must be authorized by ordinance. The County is given flexibility by the Commonwealth of Virginia to make the payment between June 1, 2026 and September 30, 2026. Staff recommends making the payment on June 18, 2026. Funding for the bonus will come from both the Commonwealth of Virginia and County of Roanoke revenues. Staff recommends that the fiscal year 2026 budget be amended in the amount of $1,503,009 to operating revenue and expenditures of the general fund to provide a bonus to County employees. FISCAL IMPACT: The estimated cost to provide a bonus to all employees is approximately $1,503,009. The fiscal year 2025-2026 general fund budget will be amended to recognize an additional $276,000 of revenue from the Commonwealth of Virginia along with an additional $1,227,009 in Public Service Corporation taxes. This will allow for the increase in the personnel budget to provide the bonus. The bonus will be paid on June 18, 2026, and will be an expense of FY2026. Any necessary transfers and/or budget adjustments required by Roanoke County accounting procedures necessary to accomplish this action will be authorized by this ordinance. Funding provided by the Virginia Compensation Board does not represent base salary funding, and consequently is in addition to and does not supplant local salary supplements or any recent local salary increases. Like all funding for salaries and expenses in constitutional offices, Roanoke County will be responsible for paying these expenses, and the Compensation Board will reimburse the majority of the actual expenses. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of the first reading of the ordinance and setting the second reading for May 26, 2026.

FA AT A REGULAR MEETING OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF ROANOKE COUNTY, VIRGINIA HELD AT THE ROANOKE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION CENTER MEETING DATE: May 12, 2026 AGENDA ITEM: Ordinance authorizing the relocation of the Hollins District Precinct 206 polling place pursuant to Virginia Code Sections 24.2-306, 24.2-307, 24.2-310, and 24.2-129 SUBMITTED BY: Anna Cloeter General Registrar and Director of Elections APPROVED BY: Richard L. Caywood County Administrator ISSUE: The current polling place for Hollins Precinct 206 is the Hollins Library. Due to planned construction in 2026 at the Hollins Library, it is necessary to relocate the polling place from the Hollins Library. BACKGROUND: Virginia Code § 24.2-306, § 24.2-307, and § 24.2-310 authorize the governing body of each county to establish the polling place for each precinct in that jurisdiction by ordinance. Virginia Code § 24.2-129 imposes additional requirements upon the governing body prior to relocating a polling place. DISCUSSION: The current polling place for Hollins Precinct 206 is the Hollins Library. There is planned construction scheduled to begin at the Hollins Library in 2026, which is expected to conclude in 2027. Election officials have determined that the citizens would be better served with the temporary relocation of the Hollins District Precinct 206 polling place to North Roanoke Baptist Church, located at 6402 Peters Creek Road, Roanoke, Virginia 24019. Leaders at the North Roanoke Baptist Church have shared that the church agrees to serve as the temporary polling place for Hollins Precinct 206 during construction at the Hollins Library. An ordinance is needed from the Board of Supervisors to effectuate this temporary change in polling place. The Board of Supervisors previously approved an ordinance relocating the Hollins Page 1 of 2 District Precinct 206 polling place to North Roanoke Baptist Church on February 24, 2026 (Ordinance 022426-4.c). However, the Virginia Department of Elections rendered this ordinance inadequate due to the need for a formal public comment period pursuant to Virginia Code § 24.2-129. Additionally, the North Roanoke Baptist Church had a scheduling conflict and was unable to serve as the Hollins District Precinct 206 polling place for the April 21, 2026 election. To comply with all applicable Virginia Code sections, Roanoke County has published on its official website the proposed polling place change and general notice of opportunity for public comment on the proposed polling place change. Roanoke County will hold this open public comment period from April 10, 2026 to May 26, 2026. Additionally, at the Board of Supervisor's second reading of this matter on May 26, 2026, the Board of Supervisors will hold a public hearing to receive public comment on the proposed polling place change. If the Board of Supervisors approves the ordinance effectuating the polling place change, Roanoke County will publish notice that the polling place change will take effect in 30 days pursuant to Virginia Code Section 24.2-129(C). FISCAL IMPACT: To comply with Virginia Code § 24.2-306, this matter was noticed by publication in the Cardinal News, and the County provided funds for that notice. There will also be costs associated with notices that must be sent by mail to registered voters impacted by this proposed polling place change. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Board of Supervisors approve the first reading of this ordinance and schedule a second reading and public hearing for May 26, 2026. VOTE: Supervisor North moved to approve the first reading of this ordinance and scheduling the second reading and public hearing for May 26, 2026. Supervisor Hooker seconded the motion.

F_5 AT A REGULAR MEETING OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF ROANOKE COUNTY, VIRGINIA HELD AT THE ROANOKE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION CENTER MEETING DATE: May 12, 2026 AGENDA ITEM: ORDINANCE AMENDING CHAPTER 21 (TAXATION), ARTICLE I (IN GENERAL), ARTICLE II (TAXES ON TANGIBLE PERSONAL PROPERTY), AND ARTICLE III (REAL ESTATE TAXES) OF THE ROANOKE COUNTY CODE SUBMITTED BY: Kevin Hutchins Treasurer APPROVED BY: Richard L. Caywood County Administrator ISSUE: The Roanoke County Treasurer has proposed certain changes to Article I, Article II, and Article III of Chapter 21 (Taxation) of the Roanoke County Code. BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION: The Roanoke County Code currently does not provide for the provision of administrative fees to cover the cost of collecting delinquent personal property taxes authorized by Virginia Code § 58.1-3958. It is proposed that a new Section 21-10 be added to Chapter 21, Article I of the Roanoke County Code to provide for the provision of a $30 delinquent administrative fee to cover the cost of collecting delinquent personal property taxes which are ninety (90) or more days delinquent. The Roanoke County code currently provides for a ten (10) percent penalty for late payments of personal property taxes and real estate taxes. It is proposed that Section 21-18 and Section 21-37 be amended to allow for a tiered penalty approach for late payment of personal property taxes and real estate taxes. The proposal is to set a 3% penalty for payment of taxes within sixty (60) days of the due date, and to set a 10% penalty for payment of taxes thereafter. The amendments are authorized by Virginia Page 1 of 2 Code § 58.1-3916. FISCAL IMPACT: Implementing the proposed Roanoke County Code changes involves no cost to Roanoke County. Staff projects that the new delinquent administrative fee will generate $390,000 in annual revenue, while the tiered late payment penalty is expected to reduce annual revenue by $330,000. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of the first reading and scheduling the second reading of the ordinance for May 26, 2026.

Caywood County Administrator ISSUE: First reading of an ordinance to amend the Roanoke County Zoning Ordinance regarding community scale solar energy systems, utility scale solar energy systems, multi-family dwellings, cluster subdivisions, and commercial kennels. BACKGROUND: As part of its work plan for 2026, the Planning Commission has an on-going process to review, evaluate, and develop appropriate amendments to the County's Zoning Ordinance. These amendments generally: correct inconsistencies; clarify issues or standards; add or amend definitions and uses; add or amend uses within certain zoning districts; develop or amend standards for existing or new uses; and create or revise development standards dealing with landscaping, parking, signage, lighting, or other development regulations. These amendments are typically developed over several months (usually 6 months) before going through the public hearing and adoption process. This is the first process of two amendment processes proposed for 2026. DISCUSSION: The Planning Commission held a public hearing on the proposed amendments to the Zoning Ordinance on May 5, 2026. The proposed amendments would: add definitions for community scale solar energy system and utility scale solar energy system, and amend the definition for major utility services in Sec. 30-29 (Use Types; Generally) in Page 1 of 2 Article II (Definitions and Use Types); amend Article III (District Regulations) by adding community scale solar energy system and utility scale solar energy system as a special use in AG-3, Agricultural/Rural Preserve District, AG-1, Agricultural/Rural Low Density District, AR, Agricultural/Residential District, I-1, Low Intensity Industrial District, and 1-2, High Intensity Industrial District; and amend and/or add use and design standards for multi-family dwelling, single family dwelling, attached and detached (cluster subdivision option), community scale solar energy system and utility scale solar energy system, and commercial kennel in Article IV (Use and Design Standards). No citizens spoke during the public hearing. The Planning Commission had a general discussion on the proposed amendments and made some minor tweaks to the zoning ordinance amendments. The Planning Commission voted to recommend approval of the Zoning Ordinance amendments. FISCAL IMPACT: There is no fiscal impact on this agenda item. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Board of Supervisors approve the first reading of an ordinance to amend the Roanoke County Zoning Ordinance and schedule the second reading of the ordinance and public hearing for the Board's May 26, 2026, meeting.

Caywood County Administrator ISSUE: Amendment of Chapter 2 of the Roanoke County Code to include a new Article VIII - Disaster and Emergency Management BACKGROUND: As required by law, the Board adopted an Emergency Operations Plan ("EOP") in July 2023, which includes an emergency management organizational structure with associated duties and responsibilities. However, the EOP is not activated until there is an official declaration of a state of emergency, and until that official declaration, the organizational structure and duties detailed in the EOP are not explicitly in place. DISCUSSION: By adding this proposed Disaster and Emergency Management Article to Chapter 2 of the County Code, the organizational structure and duties articulated in the EOP will be permanently implemented. In addition, the new Article will allow for planning and some emergency management actions to be taken before a state of emergency is declared, as early as when a "disaster threatens." This Article will thus enhance the County's ability to prepare for and react to emergency situations. There have been no changes since the first reading held April 28, 2026. Page 1 of 2 FISCAL IMPACT: There is no fiscal impact associated with this action. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends the Roanoke County Board of Supervisors approve this ordinance.
