CERTIFICATION RESOLUTION R-71393-5 BI,~T MOTION TO RETURN TO OPEN SESSION AT 834 P.M. AND ADOPT CERTIFICATION RESO URC R ADJOi;fItNMENT BIT MOTION TO ADJOURN AT 8:36 P.M. - URC An article in this morning's paper revealed that a leading proponent of consolidation not only favors some sort of restruct- uring, he also said that our failure to do so is the "...biggest impediment to the economic stability and growth of the region." I would like to go on record as saying that this is fal- lacious thinking that needs to be debunked at every turn. The only rational reason for merging governments would be to improve both the effectiveness and efficiency of the delivery of services to our citizens, i.e., better services at less cost. It was substantially proven during the consolidation debate of 1990 that such would not be the case. At the same time, I think it has become very obvious to most people that our local economy is in a period of transition, occurring as it is against the backdrop of a bleak state and national economic picture. They believe, as do I, that all in good time our economy will be robust and prosperous no matter how we structure government here in the Valley. In fact, most of us are convinced that our economy will be far better the more we in government stay out of it. I note with amusement that the latest plan of choice doesn't call for a meaningful restructuring of ALL Valley governments into ore entity. Instead, it boils down to a plan in which the County disappears altogether, engulfed and devoured by the two cities and town. Apparently, by some process of reasoning, four governments are too many, while three would be okay, especially if the County sees its demise in the process! I remain opposed to consolidation, not just for the sake of being opposed, and not because it is the politically correct thing to do for a supervisor from the Catawba District. I'm opposed because no one has yet proven to me or to the rest of the County taxpayers that things will get better, and cost less. And, I reiterate a position I took in 1990, and have repeated many times since: the economic development issue is bogus as a basis for consolidation, one that is used primarily as a scare tactic by those who favor a merger of any kind. Finally, such tactics inhibit good communications, and cause people--myself included--to waste a lot of time, money, and other resources in the defense of their positions, rather than creating a climate in which we can all work together and move ahead. ~, ROAN ~.~ ~ ~ A ~ ~ a Cn~~~# ~~ ~~x~~a 1838 ROANOKE COUNTY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS AGENDA July 13, 1993 ~ff~a~~ Welcome to the Roanoke County Board of Supervisors meeting.

ITEM NUMBER .~ - / AT A REGULAR MEETING OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF ROANOKE COUNTY, VIRGINIA HELD AT THE ROANOKE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION CENTER MEETING DATE: July 13, 1993 AGENDA ITEM: Request for Appropriation for the Completion of the Ball Fields at Northside High School COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR' S COMMENTS: ~(~'~'µ~ EXECUTIVE SUMMARY' One of the projects included in the 1992 bond referendum was the relocation of two baseball/softball fields adjacent to Northside High School which were being displaced by the construction of the new Forensics Laboratory. $52,000 was included in the bond project for realignment and $10,000 for fence repairs for a total of $62,000. Our target budget for the construction of a new ball field has been $31,000 each. The Recreation Clubs which serve this area of the County and the School programs have requested that the construction be expanded to complete a total of four fields at this site (instead of only replacing two). The engineering, grading, stormwater management and utility costs will be the same at this site whether two or four fields are built because the entire 8+ Acre site must be managed. The projected cost to complete the construction of the first two (replacement) fields is $95,180. The additional costs for fencing, infield soils, bleachers, etc. to develop the third and fourth fields would be approximately $20,500. Before the final grading is completed, we plan to install the water and sewer service lines for a future restroom facility so that we will not have to disturb the fields once they are built. Based upon the bids received for the grading of this site, it is anticipated that we will need up to $62,000 additional dollars to finish the work for all four fields. Any savings from the bond projects scheduled for the Walrond Park development would be used to offset this cost. The Schools are attempting to provide the new parking facility for this site using School Board monies. FISCAL IMPACT' It is requested that an amount not to exceed $62,000 be appropriated from the Capital Reserve Account to complete the construction of the two additional fields at the Northside complex. ~-/ ALTERNATIVES• Alternative No. 1 Appropriate an amount not to exceed $62,000 from the capital reserve to allow the completion of two additional fields at this site making a total of four fields. Alternative No. 2 Make no new appropriation at this time and only replace the two existing fields on this site. RECOMMENDATION• Staff recommends Alternative No. 1 which appropriates the $62, 000 and allows the construction of all four fields at this time for use by the School and Recreation programs.

ITEM NUMBER - .Z AT A REGULAR MEETING OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF ROANOKE COUNTY, VIRGINIA HELD AT THE ROANOKE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION CENTER MEETING DATE: July 13, 1993 AGENDA ITEM: Request for an appropriation to fund a frozen position for the Clerk of the Circuit Court. COTJNTY ADMINISTRATOR'S COMMENTS: ~ ~~ /~~ BACKGROUND: On July 1, 1990, one of the three full-time County positions in the Clerk's office was eliminated for budgetary and personnel management reasons. When I came into this position in January, 1992, I discovered employees working nights, weekends, and holidays. Since then, the workload has continued to rise. Simultaneous increases in all areas of responsibility in the Clerk's office have not allowed for the normal backup capabilities between staff members with different job duties. Any minor occurrences in staffing such as vacations or sickness result in an almost immediate backlog of work. It is highly unlikely that there will be any reduction in civil, criminal or real estate related activities in the near future. However, should any significant downturns occur, this. can be dealt with in the budget process at that time. SUMMARY OF INFORMATION: The Roanoke County Circuit Court Clerk's office experienced a dramatically increased workload during the past calendar year. Specifically, the number of recorded instruments, with a previous four-year average of slightly over 12,000, jumped to nearly 19,000 in 1992. This increase of more than 50 o is reflected in the amount of work done at the front counter when the documents are brought in for recordation, in filing and indexing the new documents, and in microfilming them for permanent record storage.. With regard to the civil and criminal caseloads, the number of concluded cases is also up significantly. The increase in 1992 over 1.991 is well over 200 cases, or approximately 10%. Since October of last year, this office has employed a part-time, temporary employee currently working an average of 30 hours per week to assist primarily at the front counter and in the criminal caseload. This person has been handling front counter activities and microfilming as well as preparing court orders, filing cases at the various levels of processing, working with judges, attorneys, and the general public with regard to criminal matters, and answering telephone inquiries. Anew position at the Deputy Clerk III level would have its major responsibilities in the criminal and probate areas where the most rapid growth is expected to occur. ~ -z The Roanoke County Circuit Court Clerk's office is a fee office; it operates on funds generated from its activities. It is one of only 19 clerk's offices, out of a total of 121 in the Commonwealth of Virginia, which has consistently operated "in the black" for years. In other words, not only is this office self-supporting, it also produces surplus funds which are returned to Roanoke County as revenue. When there is an increase in the workload, there are usually additional funds generated. The subsequent increase in revenues is good for Roanoke County, but a portion of the resulting fees needs to be returned to the Clerk's office to allow for the higher demands placed upon equipment and/or staff. FISCAL IMPACT: The total cost of a Deputy Clerk III position (Roanoke County Grade 19) including benefits for 12 months is $26,444.00. This amount could be appropriated from the board contingency. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends reclassifying one of the remaining 13 frozen positions to a Deputy Clerk III position and appropriating $26,444.00 effective August 1, 1993 from the board contingency.

What alternatives have you considered other than new positions? C. Are the positions needed to maintain current service, accommodate current or projected workload increases, or provide new or better quality service? D. What will be the effects on your service delivery if your request is not approved? Category D: As the law now stands, effective January 1, 1995, divorces and other family matters will come under the jurisdiction of the Family Court. The study document prepared by the Supreme Court states that 96 positions statewide in Circuit Court Clerks' offices will be freed up as a result of this transfer in workload in FY96. With your help, the Compensation Board will have sufficient information to show that something less than 96 positions may be freed up, while your need for additional staff due to workload increases in other areas is equal to or greater than the positions freed up by the Family Court. Please note that your answer to the questions below will be used along with the other categories throughout this questionnaire to come up with a net figure for staffing needs.

'~ AT A REGULAR MEETING OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF ROANOKE COUNTY, VIRGINIA, HELD AT THE ROANOKE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION CENTER MEETING DATE: July 13, 1993 AGENDA ITEM: 1994 Legislative Program, Virginia Association of Counties COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR'S COMMENTS: EXECUTIVE SUMMARY• The Virginia Association of Counties requested its membership to identify major legislative issues of statewide concern that should be considered in the 1994 session of the Virginia General Assembly. This agenda item suggests several issues for Board consideration. BACKGROUND• The Virginia Association of Counties has requested each of its members to submit to it any proposals for VaCO's 1994 Legislative Program by June 15, 1993. On June 8, 1993 the Board considered a report from staff on this topic. At that time the Board requested several amendments to that report. This report incorporates the Board's suggested amendments. SUMMARY OF INFORMATION: The following is a list of legislative initiatives recom- mended for consideration by the Board: 1994 Legislative Program I. 599 Law Enforcement funding A. Closely monitor any proposed changes in the method of allocating funds. B. Support an equitable distribution system that rewards local efforts to prevent crime. II. FOI Study (SJR 238, Sen. Houck, 1993 General Assembly) A. Support legislation to protect taxpayer investment 1 in collecting, developing, storing and maintaining public records. Any dissemination requirement should allow local governments to recover the actual cost of developing GIS system. III. Recycling A. The 25~ State recycling goal adversely effects County finances, since the County is losing money recycling. B. The State should either: 1. waive this recycling requirement (25~ for 1995), or 2. guarantee market prices for recyclable materi- als, IV. V. VI. VII. VIII. Social Services A. Increase administrative funding for the Comprehen- sive Services Act. B. Monitor HJR 603 Task Force on Restructuring Vir- ginia's Long Term Care for the Elderly. Libraries A. Full funding of State Aid for Public Libraries B. Approximately 77~ of funds required under formula (Sec. 42.1-48) are appropriated in State budget. Treasurer A. Amend Sec. 58.1-3013 to require credit card compa- nies to honor local ordinances authorizing the payment of local taxes by credit card and imposing a service charge not to exceed 4~ of the amount due. DUI A. Increase penalties for DUI violations. B. Improve and toughen enforcement of DUI statutes. Equalize the taxing and borrowing powers of counties with those powers granted municipalities. 2 IX. Support the recommendations of the Governor's Advisory Commission on the Dillon Rule and Local Government. X. Support the reduction of unfunded regulatory and statu- tory mandates, and oppose any state mandates on local governments without sufficient funding to cover the costs of these mandates. XI. Expand the revenue powers and authority of local govern- ments, including authority to levy a tobacco tax, and to provide for a local option income tax. XII. Continue the moratorium on any city annexation and city annexation initiated by citizens of counties. XIII. Grant local governments the authority to adopt growth management ordinances, including the power to impose impact fees, to restrict the authority of the courts to overrule local land-use decisions, and to allow reasonab- le procedures and time periods for the amortization of non-conforming signs. XIV. Support legislation establishing a deposit on beverage containers. XV. Support the following finance issues: A. Return a portion of lottery proceeds to local governments as originally intended, B. Increase State funding for local police depart- ments. XVI. Support initiatives for economic development: A. Funding in the form of grants and loans for the development of industrial parks and the shell building program B. Legislation to allow revenue sharing (without referendum requirements) among participating local governments from jointly developed industrial parks. XVII. Public Education A. Enhance funding for public education, including increasing the funds available for distribution to localities through the Literary Fund for capital construction or renovations. B. Authorize local school divisions to establish 3 opening dates for school. C. set and tion STAFF RECOMMENDATION: in nd me '~~ . a E~itution to allow el~ected~~~school boards to levy taxes to support local public educa- Staff recommends that the Board endorse and adopt a recommended legislative program for the consideration of the Virginia Association of Counties for the 1994 session of the Virginia General Assembly.

Since the development of this program, County economic development staff have used this program to assist twelve (12) projects in Roanoke County. A total of $224,349 has been expended in retaining or creating 648 jobs and resulting in an estimated $14.5 million of new private investment in Roanoke County. Funds have been used for public purposes; typically, water and sewer extensions, utility, connection fees, and traffic control equipment. The initial policy's emphasis has been aimed at manufacturing and major employers. During the past year, a variety of prospects have sought a Roanoke County location. The trend and type of prospects that have recently inquired about a Roanoke County location are both non-manufacturing and local Valley companies that are expanding. The staff's analysis supports an expansion of the Public Private Partnership to include non-manufacturing companies, tourism related industries and activities and employment training. Evaluation criteria based on new taxes, employment, payback, and other factors will be used to review applicants for assistance. The readopted Public Private Partnership Policy proposes that Roanoke County participate up to 50% of eligible costs for public improvements if payback from new taxes occurs within the first three years of the new project. This level of participation meets the intent of the partnership concept and provides funding opportunities for more partnerships. a- FISCAL IMPACT: Currently, $147,704.50 is available in the Economic Development Fund for an allocation. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Board of Supervisors readopt the Public Private Partnership Policy by the attached resolution. Respectfully submitted: ~~ ,, ~'~ ',, " . Timothy W.

BE IT RESOLVED by the Board of Supervisors of Roanoke County, Virginia, as follows: That the Board hereby readopt and establish the following "Roanoke County Public Private Partnership Policy" in order to provide policy guidance in applying the provisions of the Roanoke County Code in negotiations concerning local incentives for economic development projects. F~ ROANORE COUNTY PUBLIC PRIVATE PARTNERSHIP POLICY Purposes• 1. Roanoke County may fund all or part of site development costs for public improvements, roads, and off site facility fees for water and sewer for a qualifying industry or business that meets the evaluation criteria for public private (P/P) partnerships. 2 . Roanoke County may encourage the creation or retention of jobs of companies within the community which employ 200 or more employees through assistance with employment training. 3. Roanoke County may support tourism related industries/ destinations/activities that provide a range of activities to the visitor from outside the Roanoke Valley. Determination• A qualifying business or industry may apply for County assistance by addressing a letter to the Director of Economic Development that indicates: a. a description of the business activity to be conducted on the site b. total capital investment in real estate (land, building) machinery and tools and anticipated personal property and/or other taxes paid on site c. total employment and annual payroll and jobs to be created or retained d. specific water and sewer needs (i.e., size line and/or capacity) or other public facility assistance required e. date of construction and/or start-up (if in an existing building) f. if applicable, the terms of any lease to ensure that the company will occupy the building during the period calculated for payback. Impact Calculations: The Director of Economic Development, upon consultation with the County Administrator and other County staff, will review the request for participation to determine the extent of Roanoke County's funding. The County may either partially or fully fund participation for the project. Criteria based on anticipated taxes (real estate, machinery and tools and personal property), payback and other factors will be used in an evaluation formula on the attached table. The County may participate in up to 500 of public C ~" improvement costs of the project if payback occurs within the first three years of the new project. However, if the staff's analysis supports it, the County's participation may be greater. County participation with developers of leased buildings shall be limited to 50%. Areas of Partnership Assistance: If approved, Roanoke County may fund all, or part of; a. water and sewer line extensions b. water, fire, and sewer utility connection fees. c. public road construction and required drainage structures d. traffic control devices such as signals and related equipment e. employment training/retraining. Requests for assistance with employment training and retraining of new and/or relocated employees may be considered. Amounts and priority of funding will depend on the salary/wage rate to be paid, the number of permanent full time jobs created, relocated or retained, and availability of matching funds from the state of Virginia and federal funds. County training funds will not be directly paid to a company, but will be appropriated to a training agency, state agency or economic development organization recognized by the Board of Supervisors. Public Private Partnership funds shall be funded after the approval of the required site plan and at the time that a building permit is issued for the project. Industrial Park Development Off-site fees of jointly developed parks shall not be held as a portion of the total cost of the project and thus not a portion of the payback equation. Such assistance shall be funded after the approval of the required site plan and at the time a building permit is issued for the project. Limitations• Roanoke County will not pay for any private sewage pre-treatment facilities or waive any ordinances requiring fire protection or industrial discharge certification. 2 ~~ Funding Sources: Roanoke County shall fund its participation from the General Fund from anticipated tax revenue, or from an Economic Development Fund or other special non-utility funds. There is an intent to continue the maintenance of a fiscally sound utility enterprise fund to provide water and sewer service to County utility customers. (This provision is authorized by County Code Chapter 22 as amended by Ordinance 8-12-86-169, Section 3b.) Agreement• A written agreement on a form provided by the County Attorney may be required to specify terms of the Public Private Partnership. Apnroval• Staff has the authority to enter into a Pubic Private Partnership agreement with a prospective new or expanding business after completing a staff evaluation. The Board of Supervisors will review such partnerships as part of the annual budget process and as necessary in negotiating with businesses seeking to locate in Roanoke County. (This is limited to the amount of appropriations.) 3 ' °` °O ~ E r ~i (~ ""~ .. 0 0 0 0 0 0 ~. 0 0 0 c A U O O G C ~ O _ - .

DOGS. CATS AND OTHER ANIMALS, OF CHAP- TER 5, ANIMALS AND FOWL OF THE ROANOKE COUNTY CODE TO CONTROL DANGEROUS AND VICIOUS DOGS. COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR' S COMMENTS : ~'=~~-Y~~~ l~~ _ t~ 'fie e~ cam- c:~-+~'~,~~ ~'4'°~~ ~''~ •-~~~~ ~s~r~ ~~ EXECUTIVE SUMMARY• This ordinance will significantly strengthen Roanoke County Code provisions to respond to attacks by vicious or dangerous dogs. The amendments are consistent with recent changes to ordinances in adjoining jurisdictions. BACKGROUND• A series of savage attacks upon children and adults by dogs in the past few years in the Roanoke Valley has revealed deficiencies in the ability of the county's Animal Control Officers and the court system to impose reasonable controls on dogs which have demonstrated a propensity for attacks on humans or other animals. Roanoke County's Animal Control Officers have worked through the Public Safety Team to develop a comprehensive ordinance which defines dangerous and vicious dogs and establishes strict condi- tions for handling each category. SUMMARY OF INFORMATION: The ordinance adds detailed definitions of "dangerous dog" and "vicious dog" to Sec. 5-21. The ordinance replaces the current Sec. 5-26 with a comprehensive series of sections which details the conditions under which a "dangerous dog" may be kept and how a "vicious dog" is to be disposed of. Criminal penalties are provided for under the new Sec. 5-26.1 to enforce these provisions and a separate licensure procedure for "dangerous dogs" is created by Sec. 5-26.2. In addition, a new license fee of $50.00 is mandated for owners of any dog found to be a "dangerous dog." Sec. 5-26.3 establishes detailed conditions which the owner of a "f "dangerous dog" must comply with and gives to the Animal Control Officers specific authority to enforce these provisions by inspections and impounding of the dog, if violated. Sec. 5-26.5 provides exceptions so as not to innocently impact unsuspecting dog owners. FISCAL IMPACTS' This may provide some incidental revenue to the county. ALTERNATIVES' 1. Adopt the proposed ordinance. 2. Retain the present Sec. 5-26. "Vicious dogs." of the Roanoke County Code. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends alternative # 1. Respectfully submitted, Kenneth L.

ITEM NUMBER D' 3 AT A REGULAR MEETING OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF ROANOKE COUNTY, VIRGINIA HELD AT THE ROANOKE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION CENTER MEETING DATE: July 13, 1993 AGENDA ITEM: Work Session on Recreation Fees COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR'S COMMENTS: EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: During the Budget study, the Board of Supervisors asked staff to plan a work session to review recreation fees, particularly those involving adult athletics and the recovery of indirect costs. Staf f has reviewed and compared the fees charged by the surrounding localities for Adult Athletics (team sports) for consideration by the Board of Supervisors. Staff also wishes to discuss other concerns with the current ordinance and proposes changes which will simplify the administration of the fees. BACKGROUND' During 1989, the County retained the services of David M. Griffith and Associates, Ltd., to conduct a detailed cost/revenue study focusing upon an analysis of user fees. The Board of Supervisors then adopted an ordinance on August 14, 1990, imposing registration fees and fees for indirect costs for the various programs offered by the Recreation Division in addition to the direct program costs. This ordinance was amended on September 25, 1990, with the following guidelines (summarized): For Youth Athletics, the General Fund of the County shall subsidize all direct and indirect costs of these activities. For Community Education and Leisure Arts, the fee shall be based upon a $5 registration fee plus 25$ of the indirect cost plus 100$ of the direct cost. In any of the programs offered by these divisions primarily for youth under 18 years of age, there shall be no $5 per participant registration fee. For Adult Athletics and Outdoor Education, the fee shall be based upon 100 of the direct cost. The General Fund of the County shall subsidize the balance of the costs for this activity. 1 D-3 For Senior Citizens, the fee shall be based upon 100% of the direct cost. For Therapeutics, the fee shall be based upon 20% of the direct costs. For Special Events, the fee shall be based upon a recovery of 40% of the indirect costs and 50% of the direct costs. The Director of Parks and Recreation shall develop guidelines for the waiver or reduction of fees based upon demonstrable hardship and inability to pay and shall implement related policies. For purposes of the ordinance, DIRECT COSTS are defined as the specific costs of instructors and associated supplies. INDIRECT COSTS include the general fund appropriation for each of the cost centers associated with the recreation area based on the previous fiscal year budget, plus the allocation of the central administrative costs for the Department of Parks and Recreation. Originally, the share of the ball field maintenance which is provided by the Parks Division was included, but this cost recovery was eliminated by the September 25, 1990 amendment of the ordinance. Based on the ordinance in effect today, the County realizes a profit (revenues in excess of direct expenditures) of $21,726 for these recreation programs. Additionally, profits of $47,030 are realized by specialty programs such as After School for Kids (ASK) , Therapeutics and Special Events (see Attachment A). Staff is concerned that today's ordinance allows no fees to be realized by the County for youth participating in athletic programs, but charges full price (except for the $5 registration fee) for youth participating in any other opportunity offered by the Department. Similarly, adults participating in athletic programs (team sports) are paying only for the direct cost while the people in arts and craft type programs pay full direct costs and a share of the indirect costs. To simplify this process, staff suggests that the recreation fee ordinance be amended to provide a registration fee to assist in covering indirect cost in lieu of a separately calculated percentage share of the indirect costs. The attached ordinance is proposed for future consideration by the Board of Supervisors. The registration fee could be administered in much the same manner as the admission policy to theme parks whereby a reduced rate (or no rate) would be charged to youth and/or senior citizens, yet the adult participant would be required to pay the full registration fee on an individual or team basis. Attachment B shows the participation by the various groups during the 1992-93 2 fiscal year and the potential fiscal"impact if the suggested fees had been imposed. This registration fee would be in addition to the direct cost for the program. The concept of the proposed ordinance would require: o No payment by youth for related indirect costs for any program. In the case of youth athletics, the County would provide funds for both Direct and Indirect expenses. o Payment of a registration fee of $10 by adult participants in class or individual participation type activities. o Payment of a registration fee of $50 per team for Adult Team Sports. o Payment of an annual membership fee of $5 by teens and senior citizens in lieu of the registration fee suggested for adults. The opening of the Community Center will provide more opportunities for people of all ages to participate in the programs offered by the Department. This proposal to amend the ordinance makes the collection of indirect cost more equitable. The membership fee (card) also assists in the security aspect of participation in the activities of the new teen center and could be equally beneficial for participants in our senior adult programs. Most programs at the new Community Center will be classroom style and would not be segregated into age groupings or for specialized populations. The proposed ordinance also increases the share of the direct costs being paid by participants in our therapeutics program from 20$ to 100. The change takes the direct cost, reduces it by the amount of grant revenues received for this program and assigns the balance as the direct cost to be recovered from the participant. The therapeutics program is an important tool and resource to the County as it offers multiple avenues of addressing needs and requests by residents of our community to participate in our recreation programs, particularly since we must attempt to provide accommodation to our regular programs to persons with disabilities in response to ADA. Finally, the proposed ordinance would continue to provide a mechanism whereby the department could provide scholarship type assistance for persons who are financially disadvantaged and cannot afford to participate in the various programs offered by the Department. 3 ~'~~ ALTERNATIVES• ALTERNATIVE NO. 1 Implement the proposed recreation fee ordinance which eliminates the specific calculation for indirect cost and uses a $10 per participant ($50 per team) registration fee in recognition of the indirect costs incurred by the County, implement a $5 per person membership fee (card) for teens and senior citizens which eliminates their need to pay the registration fee, and increases the share of the direct cost paid by participants in the therapeutics program from 20~ to 100. ALTERNATIVE NO. 2 Implement the proposed ordinance without the membership fee for teens and senior citizens. ALTERNATIVE NO. 3 Implement the proposed ordinance without modifying the share of direct cost paid by participants in the therapeutics program. ALTERNATIVE NO. 4 Revise ordinance to recover only direct costs for the various programs as noted in the proposed ordinance (eliminate recovery of indirect costs). This would be similar to the policy of most other Parks and Recreation Departments. ALTERNATIVE NO. 5 No change to the ordinance. RECOMMENDATION• Staff recommends alternative No. 1. If the Board concurs in this recommendation, we would bring back a final version of the proposed ordinance after approval by the Parks and Recreation Advisory Commission to be considered for a first and second reading of an ordinance. It is suggested that the revised fee structure be considered to begin for programs offered for the Winter quarter to allow staff time to prepare the publications and advise participants. 4 Respectfully submitted, Appr~ved by, ohn M.

ITEM NUMBER_~~- AT A REGULAR 1KEETING OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF ROANOKE COUNTY, VIRGINIA HELD AT THE ROANORE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION CENTER MEETINC,~ DATE: July 13, 1992 AGENDA ITEM: Work Session on Refuse Collection. BOUNTY AD1rIINISTRATOR' S COI`II~ENTS BACKGROUND: During the past year there have been a number of discussions related to the subject of refuse collection, particularly with regard to our bulk/brush pickup system. We now have five automated packers and four manual rearloaders used in the collection of household refuse. In addition, we have two rearloaders with crews of three each, dedicated to the collection of bulk and brush once- monthly throughout the County. ~iiM1~fARY OF INFORNATION: The primary aim in this work session is to provide the Board with an overview of our refuse collection system, including a brief history of the major changes in the services during the last eight years and a discussion of the impact of those changes. It is our hope, that with the benefit of the overview to be provided and the related discussion, we can address the future of our collection system, particularly as it relates to bulk and brush. As you recall, during the budget process I advised the Board that, with the purchase of three new automated refuse trucks, we could eliminate four staff positions. Two of the suggestions as to how those positions might be utilized, were: o Transfer them to Parks and Recreation because of the growing need for resources there. o Increase the collection of bulk and brush collection throughout the County to twice a month. In the approved budget, the four positions were funded for six months in General Services to accommodate the transition from manual to automated pickup. It was estimated that this transition could be made by January, 1994. o-~ Based on conversations with the Director of General Services, I indicated during the budget process that we could accommodate twice-monthly bulk and brush pickup in conjunction with, and with the savings from, the automation of refuse collection in the remainder of the County. This is possible. However, to do so it will be necessary to retain the four positions and one of the refuse trucks that were to be displaced as a result of purchasing the three automated vehicles. ALTERNATIVES: (1) Implement twice-monthly collection of bulk and brush. (2} Transfer the four positions resulting from automation of refuse collection to Parks and Recreation. (3) Reduce the County staff by four positions. (4) Seek an independent study of our refuse collections system prior to making a final decision of disposition of the four positions. Alternative 1. 1993 - Fund four employees for 6 months Operating cost for 1 rearloader Annually -Fund four employees - Operating cost for 1 rearloader Alternative 2. 1993 - Fund four employees for 6 months Annually - Fund four employees Alternative 3. Reduction of four positions Alternative 4. Independent study of refuse collection (est) STAFF RECO~IMENI~ATION $29,000 5,000 58,000 20,000 $ 29,000 58,000 ($ 58,000) $ 15,000 This is a Board decision. I am willing to expand the service to one additional pickup per month with the understanding that we will retain one rearloader that would otherwise be sold, and that the four positions be retained in General Services. ~y Respectfully submitted, Elmer C.

Allen, Clerk Roanoke County Board of Supervisors cc: File Executive Session County of Roanoke Department of Planning and Zoning Memorandum T0: Board of Supervisors FROM: Terrance L. Harrington, AICP /~~ Director of Planning and Zoning DATE: July 9, 1993 RE: Commission Action on Zoning Map Amendments. BACKGROUND When the Board of Supervisors passed the Zoning Ordinance December 15, 1992, there was concern expressed about the zoning of land near and around the Blue Ridge Parkway. Many acres along and near the Parkway had been proposed by the Commission to be R-1 Residential. This designation allows a minimum lot size of 7,200 square feet if water and sewer is provided. The Board's action on December 15th placed many of these areas within an AG-1 designation. Due to the various concerns, a committee was appointed to study zoning along the Parkway in more detail and was asked to make recommendations on which areas in proximity to the Parkway are critical to the Parkway's viewshed, and thus should be protected. The committee was comprised of two representatives of the Blue Ridge Parkway, a representative of the Friends of the Blue Ridge Parkway, and two representatives of the development community. County staff has attended the meetings and provided support to the committee. The committee has been meeting since January and has identified eleven "CRITICAL VIEWSHED AREAS" along the Parkway. These eleven areas are owned by approximately 100 property owners. The current zoning of these areas is primarily AG-1 or AG-3 with one small area zoned R-1. The committee is continuing to study these areas to determine appropriate ways to protect the critical viewsheds, including additional design standards for these parcels. At their meeting on July 6, 1993 the Planning Commission made recommendations to the Board regarding the appropriate zoning of approximately 450 parcels that are in proximity to the Blue Ridge Parkway, but are outside of the eleven "CRITICAL VIEWSHED AREAS". Their recommendations were made after holding public hearings on June lst and July 6th. These recommendations will be forwarded to the Board when its public hearing is scheduled. With the exception of the "CRITICAL VIEWSHED AREAS" identified by the Blue Ridge Parkway Committee, the Commission's action covered all of the parcels near the Parkway that the Board of Supervisors rezoned to AG-1 on December 15, 1992. These parcels were encompassed in four large areas along the Parkway. The Commission focused primarily on two of the areas located within the Cotton Hill Road area of Roanoke County. The Commission has recommended that the two areas outside of the Cotton Hill Road area (Bonsack; Poage Valley Road), be zoned R-1. This designation is consistent with their original recommendation to the Board in November 1992. In the Cotton Hill Road area, the Commission has recommended a combination of R-1 and AR zoning designations. (See attached development standards). Their recommendation took into consideration proximity of this area to the developed portions of Roanoke County, the location of the proposed Spring Hollow Water line, the potential for public sewer, the character and capacity of Cotton Hill Road (north and south of the Parkway), and citizen comments pertaining to the Comprehensive Plan, Parkway protection issues, and the general current rural character of the Cotton Hill Road area. The Commission recommended that all of the parcels in the Cotton Hill Road area north of the Parkway be zoned R-1. This area includes the Sigmon property, and the Beasley property north of the Parkway. South of the Parkway, the Commission has recommended a combination of AR and R-1 zoning designations. Their recommendation is that the Beasley tract and several other large acreage tracts south of the Parkway and east of Cotton Hill Road be zoned R-1. The Commission has also recommended that all of the smaller parcels east of Cotton Hill and all of the land areas west of Cotton Hill be zoned AR. These are primarily the existing platted lots within the Cotton Hill area. The Commission's intent in recommending this dual zoning south of the Parkway was to recognize the existing character of the Cotton Hill area, and to allow future development of the parcels along Cotton Hill consistent with this character. The existing development patterns in the Cotton Hill Road area were established over a 20 year period under the standards of the "old" zoning ordinance. Properties in this area were zoned either RE or A-1 under the "old" ordinance. These "old" zoning districts allow 7,200 square foot lots provided public water and sewer were available. This is the same lot size now allowed in R-1 districts. The Commission's analysis of the existing subdivision patterns in the Cotton Hill area showed that approximately forty percent (40%) of the existing platted lots do not meet AG-1 standards. In making their zoning recommendations to the Board, the Commission also made the following requests/statements: 1. The Commission expressed a hope that preliminary subdivision master plans for the Beasley tract south of the Parkway be required to show an ultimate road connection in the area of Merriman Road. If required and ultimately constructed, traffic from the development of this tract would have an alternative to Cotton Hill Road. 2. The Commission asked that the Board consider adding improvements to Cotton Hill Road to the County's 6-year road improvement plan. 3. The Commission believes that the "CRITICAL VIEWSHED AREAS" should all be zoned AG-3 so that the owners of these properties have an additional economic incentive to comply with the Parkway design standards being developed by the Blue Ridge Parkway Committee. The Commission has asked that the Blue Ridge Parkway Committee review and concur with this recommendation. The Committee will discuss this item on July 20th. It was the desire of the Commission that these " CRITICAL VIEWSHED AREAS" be zoned AG-3 concurrently with the R-1 and AR zoning changes. However, since these eleven areas (comprised of approximately 100 different owners) were not advertised for rezoning, the Commission cannot formally forward a recommendation to you until a new public hearing is held. PROPOSED TIMELINE If the Board wishes to proceed with the rezoning of these "CRITICAL VIEWSHED AREAS" concurrent with the R-1/AR rezonings, the following timetable would allow all of the appropriate advertisements to be placed: August 3, 1993 Commission holds a public hearing on a Commission petition to rezone the eleven "CRITICAL VIEWSHED AREAS" to AG-3. (Note: Commission legal ad must be placed in the paper no later that July 16, 1993.) August 24, 1993 Commission forwards all of its recommendations to the Board. Board holds First Reading and Public Hearing on a comprehensive ordinance that incorporates all of the Commission's zoning recommendations, including their recommendations for the Cotton Hill Road area and their recommendations on the "CRITICAL VIEWSHED AREAS". September 28, 1993 Board holds Second Reading and takes action on the proposed ordinance. If the Board does not wish to proceed with the Commission's proposal for the "CRITICAL AREAS", this same schedule could be used to consider the Commissions current R-1/AR recommendations.

He has an interest in the Board possibly making comments for the Growth Commission to consider. I said that could prepare a report for the Board to consider for th my 13th meeting, but that I would clear with you first. -•----- I've talked to Kat Imhoff. Any comments received by mid-month would be considered by the Growth Commission. OK with you if I prepare report for the first meeting in July? Let me know ASAP if you would prefer that this not be an agenda item. c: Mary Allen MEMO - 6/1/93 To: Supervisors From: Lee B. Eddy ~~---~ Subject: Commission on Population Growth & Development At the 5/27/93 meeting of the Fifth Planning District Commission, there was a presentation by the Executive Director of the Virginia Commission on Population Growth and Development, Katherine L. Imhoff. She outlined the history and purpose of the Commission and distributed copies of their latest report, House Document #72, which includes draft #4 of their proposed legislation. The focus of the Commission's recommendations is on more coordinated planning among the various state, regional and local agencies. The emphasis is on Economic Development, Protection of Important Resources, Cost Effective Government, and Orderly Growth. The Commission hopes to make final adjustments to their draft legislation at a meeting scheduled for August 5 and 6, so they can submit it to the 1994 General Assembly. They are asking to receive comments no later than July 1. I will leave a copy of the report in the Supervisors' office, and hope you will take the time to at least skim through it for the highlights. The Commission Chairman has summarized the proposal in a relatively short summary dated May, 1993. The Planning Commission should also be interested in these documents. If the Board wants to submit comments representing the will of the County, we should plan to approve those comments no later than our meeting on 6/22/93. copy: Don Witt, Planning Commission Chairman Elmer Hodge Paul Mahoney Terry Harrington Time Gubala 1~1tO - 6/28/93 To: Paul Mahoney From: Lee B. Eddy ~~~^ Subject: Nuisance Claims Thank you for your memo of 3 June, 1993 on this subject, which outlined options for responding to small claims against the County. I favor the following approach: 1. General: Take neither a "hard line" nor a "liberal" approach to settling claims out of court, but an intermediate position. Generally I favor settling these issues out of court if the fault is clear and it does not establish a potentially costly precedent. 2. Authority: Grant administrative authority for settling claims as follows: a. Up to $1000: Risk Management upon the recommendation of the affected Department Head. b. Up to $5000: County Administrator upon the recommendation of the Department Head. c. Over $5000: Board of Supervisors. d. Because of potentially costly precedents, each claim to be reviewed by the County Attorney. If he advises against settlement, the issue should be decided by the Board. e. A Constitutional Officer must concur in any action affecting his responsibility. 3. Source of Funds: a. Where the problem is clearly the responsibility of a Department, the cost should be taken from the budget for that Department. b. Where responsibility is not clear, the County Administrator should decide the source of funds. c. For any issue brought to the Board, the Board should decide the source of funds. One question that occurs to me is whether a formal policy along these lines would have to be made known to the public. By copy to Chairman Minnix, I suggest that this subject be placed on the agenda for an Executive Session during our meeting of 7/13/93. copy: Supervisors Elmer Hodge Mary Allen O O C~D C~D ~J ~ a. a ~ N 0 0 b ~ ~, o ~~ ~~ ~~ b H r+. ~.
