C. The Bond will be issued as a "Parity Bond" as defined in the Financing Agreement dated as of December 1, 1996 (the "1996 Financing Agreement"), between the County and the Virginia Water Facilities Revolving Fund, acting by and through VRA. The Bond will be secured by a pledge of the revenues (as more particularly defined in the Financing Agreement, the "Revenues") derived by the County from the ownership and operation of its wastewater system (as more particularly defined in the Financing Agreement, the "System"). The Bond will be secured on parity with the County's outstanding Sewer Revenue Bond, Series 1996 (the "1996 Bond"), with respect to the pledge of Revenues. D.

ITEM NUMBER ~' AT A REGULAR MEETING OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF ROANOKE COUNTY, VIRGINIA HELD AT THE ROANOKE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION CENTER MEETING DATE: January 25, 2000 AGENDA ITEM: Request to Adopt Resolution Authorizing the Refunding of $5,600,000 of Sewer Revenue Bonds COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR'S COMMENTS: ~,~,,,,,~ ~~~ ~~~ SUMMARY OF INFORMATION: On June 22, 1999 the Board of Supervisors approved the issuance of up to $5,725,000 in bonds to finance the County of Roanoke's portion of the Roanoke Regional Wastewater Treatment Facility. This was the second borrowing for this project (previously the County had borrowed $13,100,000 through the Virginia Wastewater Revolving Fund). Due to a change in the way that the Virginia Wastewater Revolving Loan Fund is operating they have requested that we now refund the $5,600,000 of bonds that were closed in July 1999. The initial issue of these bonds had an interest rate of 4%. The refunded issue of this bond will have an interest rate of 3.5%. As a result of this refunding the County will save $17,664 annually or $353,282 over the twenty year term of the loan. The Virginia Resources Authority has agreed to pay any closing costs related to this refunding. At the closing date the County will need to pay the interest that is accrued to this point on the existing loan. This accrued interest amounts to $41, 300.95. This amount is not currently included in the Sewer budget. Under the existing bond this interest would have been due and payable on December 1, 2000. These funds will need to be appropriated currently from the Sewer Unappropriated Balance. This is not an additional expense. It is a change on the timing of the payment from next fiscal year to this fiscal year. As part of the refunding the County Board must approve the attached resolution authorizing the refunding of $5,600.000 of Sewer Revenue Bonds. The financing agreement that is referred to in the resolution is voluminous. A copy is in the Board offices. A public hearing is not required for this refunding. [t is anticipated that this refunding will close around February 2, 2000. FISCAL IMPACT: The County Sewer Fund will save $353,282 over the twenty year life of this $5,600,000 Sewer bond. As a result of the closing $41,300.95 will need to be appropriated in the M:\FINANCE\COMMON\BOARD\ 1-25-OO.wpd ~,~ 1999-00 Sewer budget rather than waiting until 2000-0 l budget. Our future debt payments will be included in future year budgets. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends adopting the attached resolution approving the refunding of $5,600,000 of Sewer revenue bonds. Staff also recommends appropriating $41,300.95 from the Sewer Fund Unappropriated Balance. SUBMITTED BY: ~ ~.~~ Diane D.

County Administrators Comments: Summary of Information: At the December 21, 1999 Board meeting the Board of Supervisors approved the concept plan for a new park in North Roanoke. As funding is limited, an important part of the process is securing Recreational Access Funds from the state to construct an access road. This resolution indicates the Board of Supervisors support for the project and provides direction to the Department of Conservation and Recreation to designate this park as a public recreation area and to recommend to the Commonwealth Transportation Board that this project be funded. Fiscal Impact: Due to significant drainage issues the access road is estimated to cost approximately $225,000. By funding the access road through the Recreational Access program we will save the county this expense while allowing parks and recreation to proceed with the design and construction of at least one soccer field and parking lot. Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends approval of the attached resolution. ~'~'~ Respectfully submitted, Approved by, I Pete Haislip, D rector Elmer Hodge Parks and Recreation County Administrator Action Vote No Yes Abs Approved ( ) Denied ( ) Received ( ) Referred to Motion by Church Johnson McNamara Minnix Nickens 2 ~~ AT A REGULAR MEETING OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF ROANOKE COUNTY, VIRGINIA, HELD AT THE ROANOKE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION CENTER ON TUESDAY, January 20, 2000.

David and Zena Azar 5420 Starkey Road; R-3 to C-2 Dear Mr. Harrington: Following up our consultation which occurred on December 7, 1999, I am enclosing the completed Application for the rezoning of property located at 5420 Starkey Road, which is being submitted on behalf of J. David and Zena J. Azar, requesting a rezoning of this property from R- 3 to C-2 to allow for a use of this property as a Day Spa and Salon ("Azario's") which will be more fully described herein. With the completed Application, I am also enclosing a check in the amount of $977.00, the Concept Plan prepared by Jeff Parkhill with Hughes Associates Architects, and the listing of adjacent property owners. Please accept this letter as completing the portions of the Application concerning justification for the rezoning. INFORMATION REGARDING APPLICANT The applicants for rezoning are David and Zena Azar, who reside in Roanoke County. David Azar presently owns and manages a restaurant on Moorman Avenue in the City of Roanoke. Zena Azar is currently employed with the Edward Grant Salon. If the rezoning request is allowed, Zena Azar will operate the Day Spa and Salon under the name "Azario's Day Spa." Some of Mrs. Azar's qualifications and achievements are documented in Exhibit A which is attached hereto. F-I Mr. Terry Harrington December 17, 1999 Page 2 DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY AND CURRENT USE The subject property is currently owned by Shelby Montgomery, Jr., and is being utilized as a single family residence. The property consists of a brick structure with a detached garage, having approximately 1,000 square feet of finished living area. The existing garage would continue to be used by the applicant, but a separate parking area will be constructed for customers of the Day Spa and Salon. The legal description of the property is as shown on the Deed and Plat of Survey which are attached. USES OF ADJACENT PROPERTIES The property immediately to the right of the subject property (as you face it), tax parcel #87.19-2-4, is owned by Jack Bess, 5422 Starkey Road, Roanoke, Virginia 24014, is currently zoned C-1 and is utilized by Mr. Bess as a surveyor's office. Contact has been made with Mr. Bess, providing information regarding the rezoning request and offering to meet and answer any questions. The applicant has been advised that Mr. Bess does not foresee any objections to the suggested rezoning. The property immediately to the left of the subject property is owned by Old Heritage Corporation (Hunting Hills Country Club) and has a dwelling on it which currently is being utilized as rental property. PROPOSED USE AS DAY SPA AND SALON A Day Spa and Salon is an increasingly popular and common type of business which provides numerous health and beauty services, including hair styling, pedicures and manicures, facials, massages, etc., all at one location. Exhibit A hereto provides additional information about day spas, the services to be offered at Azario's Day Spa, and the qualifications of Zena Azar. Exhibit B hereto is a typical menu that is utilized by day spas, detailing the services offered. A trend in the health and beauty service area is to consolidate and combine the provision of health and beauty services in one convenient location. Under §30-29-5 of the Roanoke County Zoning Ordinance, a Day Spa and Salon would most appropriately be characterized as a "personal improvement service" or "personal service" commercial use type, which are defined as follows: Personal improvement services: Establishments primarily engaged in the provision of informational, instructional, personal improvements and similar services. Typical uses include driving schools, health or physical fitness studios, reducing salons, dance studios, handicraft and hobby instruction. Personal services: Establishments or places of business engaged in the provision of frequently or recurrently needed services of a personal nature. Typical uses include beauty and barber shops; grooming of pets, seamstresses, tailors, or shoe f~ Mr. Terry Harrington December 17, 1999 Page 3 repairs; florists; and Laundromats and dry cleaning stations serving individuals and households. COMPATIBILITY OF REZONING REQUEST WITH ROANOKE COUNTY 1998 COMMUNITY PLAN The subject property is located on Starkey Road (State Route 904) which has developed into a major artery in Roanoke County. The primary land use designations along Starkey Road include Core, Transition, Principal Industrial, with a small area designated as Neighborhood Conservation on the east side of Starkey Road. Under the 1998 Roanoke County Community Plan, the subject property is located in an area classified as Transition. The use of the subject property as a day spa and salon is consistent with the emerging uses of property in this Transition area. Its usage will not interfere with the areas designated as Neighborhood Conservation and will not negatively impact the continuation of the existing housing pattern in those areas. The use of the subject property as a Day Spa and Salon along the Starkey Road corridor will promote a commercial use of the property with positive aesthetics and prevents other more unappealing forms of commercial strip development which causes undesirable traffic congestion and access difficulty. The existing structure can be preserved and utilized, thus minimizing the impact on the Neighborhood Conservation area immediately across Starkey Road from the subject property. The development will preserve and enhance and incorporate natural site resources, such as topography, vegetation, and views to and from the site and drainage ways. In summary, the proposed use provides an excellent economic development of the subject property which is consistent with the evolving nature of the area as office and light commercial, but causes no negative impact on the Neighborhood Conservation area located across Starkey Road. JUSTIFICATION UNDER ROANOKE COUNTY ZONING ORDINANCE The rezoning of the subject property from R-3 to C-2 furthers the purposes of the Roanoke County Zoning Ordinance and allows commercial development in a Transition area along a major corridor in a manner which promotes the health, safety, and general welfare of the public and Roanoke County. Specifically, the rezoning request is consistent with, and promotes the purposes of, the Roanoke County Zoning Ordinance as specified in §30-3 of the Ordinance. 1. The development as proposed provides for adequate light, air, convenience of access, and has no negative impact on safety from fire, flood, or other dangers. 2. The use of the subject property as proposed is a light commercial use of the property in a transition area which will further the goal of minimizing and preventing congestion in the public streets. Mr. Terry Harrington December 17, 1999 Page 4 3. The rezoning facilitates the creation of a convenient, attractive and harmonious community. As a Transition area, this portion of Starkey Road will continue to develop with office and light commercial uses, and the use of the subject property as a Day Spa and Salon is an appropriate use in promoting a convenient, attractive, and harmonious community. The subject property is conveniently located to numerous neighborhoods whose residents have need for and will utilize the services provided. 4. The use of the subject property as proposed in no way negatively impacts the provision of adequate police, fire protection, disaster evacuation, civil defense, transportation, water, sewer, flood protection, schools, parks, forests, playgrounds, recreational facilities, airports and other public requirements. 5. The use of the subject property as proposed does not destroy or encroach upon any historic buildings or areas. 6. The use as proposed is consistent with the zoning ordinance's goals to protect against overcrowding of land, undue density of population, obstruction of light or air, hazards and congestion, travel and transportation, etc. 7. The use of the subject property as proposed encourages economic development activities that provides desirable employment and enlarges the tax base. 8. The use as proposed in no way negatively affects the preservation of agricultural and forestal lands. 9. The use as proposed has no negative affect on licensed airports. 10. The use as proposed is consistent with the protection of service and groundwater resources. The purpose of a C-2 General Commercial District classification is to provide locations for a variety of commercial and service related activities which serve a community of several neighborhoods or large areas of the County. General Commercial Districts are most appropriately found along major arterial thoroughfares which serve large segments of the County's population. The proposed rezoning is consistent with the general purpose of a C-2 General Commercial District. Starkey Road has developed into a major arterial thoroughfare which serves large segments of the County's population. Several neighborhoods are located in close vicinity to the subject property, and the proposed use will conveniently serve residents in those neighborhoods. Land uses permitted in a C-2 District are generally consistent with the recommendations set forth in the Transition land use category of the Comprehensive Development Plan. "Personal improvement services" and "personal services" are permitted uses F- ~ Fr Mr. Terry Harrington December 17, 1999 Page 5 in a C-2 General Commercial District. The use as proposed as shown on the Concept Plan submitted herewith is in compliance with the minimum lot requirements, minimum setback requirements, and minimum height of structures for a C-2 General Commercial District. IMPACTS OF DEVELOPMENT The rezoning and proposed use of the subject property provides for appropriate economic development in a transition area and does not negatively impact the property itself, the adjoining properties, the surrounding area, or public services and facilities, including water/sewer, roads, schools, parks/recreation, and fire/rescue. With regard to the property itself, the existing structures will be utilized and improved. There will be no negative impact on the adjoining property currently being used as a surveyor's office, and in fact, provides a commercial development which is of a light commercial nature and consistent with the adjoining property's use as a surveyor's office. The rezoning allows for a light commercial use which also does not negatively impact on the Neighborhood Conservation area located across Starkey Road. CONCLUSIO The subject property is located in a Transition area on a major corridor where commercial uses are becoming more prevalent. A Day Spa and Salon is exactly the type of use which will allow for economic development, provide convenient services to neighboring communities, but will not negatively impact existing land uses, traffic, congestion, or other public priorities. On behalf of the applicants, it is respectfully requested that the rezoning Application be approved. Thank you for your attention to this matter. pdc Enclosures cc: J. David and Zena Azar D.

ITEM NUMBER AT A REGULAR MEETING OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF ROANOKE COUNTY, VIRGINIA HELD AT THE ROANOKE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION CENTER MEETING DATE: January 25, 2000 AGENDA ITEM: Resolution approving a revision of the previously approved Workforce Investment Area of the Fifth Planning District to include Franklin County, VA. COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR'S COMMENTS: G~c.cvm~~''~C BACKGROUND: Earlier this Fall, the Roanoke County Board of Supervisors along with the other eight jurisdictions' Boards of Supervisors and City Councils which make up the Fifth Planning District voted to remain a part of the Fifth District Employment and Training Consortium (FDETC). The resulting request for designation as a workforce investment area under the Workforce Investment Act was forwarded to the Virginia Workforce Council for their review and approval. During the same time frame, the Franklin County Board of Supervisors was considering its options for regional alignment. After considering issues that included existing economic development alliances and worker commuter patterns, the Franklin County Board of Supervisors voted to seek membership in the Fifth District Consortium. This request was submitted to both the FDETC Policy Board and the Virginia Workforce Council for consideration. Both bodies voted to grant the request of Franklin County. The mission statement of the Fifth District Employment and Training Consortium (FDETC) is to provide an effective workforce development system which produces well-trained, highly skilled workers; promotes a good quality of life for individuals and families; and enhances regional economic growth. Each year the FDETC provides afull-range of workforce development services designed to assist both employers and job seekers. These services range from the profiling of occupational skill requirements to the provision of career counseling supplemented by tuition-assistance and related services including job readiness. Federally funded workforce development programs are usually overhauled every ten to fifteen years. Previous system changes included the conversion from Manpower Development Training Act (MDTA) to the Comprehensive Employment and Training Act (CETA), then the transition from CETA to the Job Training Partnership Act (JTPA). Legislation passed in August 1998 requires the closeout of the Job Training Partnership Act and implementation of the new Workforce Investment Act by no later than July 1, 2000. ~./-,. There are 14 regional partnerships or service delivery areas (SDAs) in Virginia which receive and administer Job Training Partnership Act funds in accordance with federal regulations, state policies and local priorities. The Fifth District Employment and Training Consortium is one of these 14 SDAs, having served the four city and four county area known as the Fifth Planning District for over 25 years. Joe Sgroi, Director of Human Resources, serves on the FDETC Policy Board as Roanoke County's Representative. SUMMARY OF INFORMATION: A Consortium agreement governs the existing alliance among the eight jurisdictions, which compromise the Fifth Planning District, under JTPA. Therefor, the Roanoke County Board of Supervisors along with the governing bodies of the other eight jurisdictions must approve the addition of Franklin County and the legislative changes, dissolving JTPA and implementing the Workforce Investment Act. FISCAL IMPACT: None, based upon past performance and history of the FDETC. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of revising the previously approved Workforce Investment Area to include Franklin County contingent upon approval by the other localities in the Fifth Planning District.

Price Executive Director ~f ., ~,~- , As you are aware, the Commonwealth of Virginia will make the transition from the Job Training Partnership Act (JTPA) to the Workforce Investment Act on July 1, 2000. In preparation for this change in the workforce development system, each area of the state was asked to review its regional alignment under JTPA to determine whether to maintain their existing alliances or to make modifications. Earlier this Fall, the Boards of Supervisors and City Councils of the eight jurisdictions which make up the Fifth Planning District voted to remain a part of the Fifth District Employment and Training Consortium (FDETC). The resulting request for designation as a workforce investment area under the Workforce Investment Act was forwarded to the Virginia Workforce Council for their review and approval. During this same timeframe, the Franklin County Board of Supervisors was considering its options for regional alignment. After considering issues that included existing economic development alliances and worker commuter patterns, the Board of Supervisors voted to seek membership in the Fifth District Consortium. This request was submitted to both the FDETC Policy Board and the Virginia Workforce Council for consideration. Both bodies voted to grant the request of Franklin County. A Consortium agreement governs the existing alliance among the eight jurisdictions which comprise the Fifth Planning District, under JTPA. This letter is written to make you aware, and to request your assistance in informing the Board of Supervisors, of the need to revise this document. FIFTH DISTRICT EMPLOYMENT AND TRAINING CONSORTIUM "TRAINING TOMORROW'S WORKFORCE TODAY" Cities of Roanoke, Clifton Forge, Covington, Salem ~ Counties ofAlleghany, Botetourt, Craig and Roanoke An Equal Opportunity Employer/Program .~ Mr. Elmer Hodge December 30, 1999 Page 2 ~-~ The agreement should be reviewed and modified to reflect the addition tyf Franklin County and the legislative changes, dissolving JTPA and implementing the Workforce Investment Act (WIA). (The initial draft of this modification will be reviewed by the FDETC Policy Board at its January meeting.) While the state Workforce Council has not set a specific deadline for the establishment of regional Consortium agreements, such documents should be in place by no later than March 2000 when regional workforce development plans must be submitted for consideration and inclusion in the state WIA plan. We are requesting that the Board of Supervisors consider authorizing the execution of a joint agreement between the jurisdictions of this workforce investment area, by no later than March 10, 2000. Such action will ensure that the revised document complies with the Workforce Investment Act. (A sample resolution is attached). Ms. Vickie Price serves as Executive Director for the Consortium. She would be happy to meet with you and/or other representatives at a mutually convenient time to provide you with an overview of the proposed modifications to the agreement, the administrative agency and our efforts to prepare for WIA implementation. You may reach Ms. Price at (540) 853- 1614. We look forward to working with you to ensure that the comprehensive workforce development needs of the region's citizens and businesses are addressed.

Tobias of the state Department of Rail and Public Transportation. The resolution and correspondence endeavor to have the historic Oak Ridge Estate Train Station in Nelson County designated as one of the train stations of the proposed passenger rail project for service from Richmond and Washington DC to Bristol. Knowing of your community's interest in the passenger rail project, it is requested that yeu support Nelson County's initiative and seek state authorization of the project during the 2G00 General Assembly Session. Please contact this office should you require additional information concerning this subject. Your consideration, assistance and cooperation are sincerely appreciated.

CARTER, CMC Aflministrative Assistant! DeputyC:erk ELLA W. BROWNING Aoministrative Assistant/ FnarxeOfficer Re: Passenger Rail Service to Historic Oak Ridge Train Station Dear Mr. Tobias: The Nelson County Board of Supervisors herewith respectfully submits the enclosed resolution, which seeks to have the train station located at the historic Oak Ridge Estate in Nelson County designated as a destination stop for the proposed passenger rail service initiative from Richmond and Washington DC to Bristol, Virginia. Including the train station at Oak Ridge as one of the destination stops of the proposed passenger service is of critical importance to Nelson County. Tourism is Nelson County's primary industry and is a key component in Nelson County's efforts to expand and diversify its local economy. An operating rail station at Oak Ridge will enable Nelson County to increase its market share of tourism related .business and investments, which in turn will also create opportunities for new business and investments to be made in Nelson County and Central Virginia. Why Oak Ridge? Amtrak's current passenger service connections utilize Norfolk Southern's tracks, which are adjacent to Oak Ridge. The tracks adjoining the Oak Ridge station are double tracks, which will enable the establishment of passenger service to Nelson County without a significant investment in infrastructure to do so. The existing train station at Oak Ridge is in excellent condition. In 1993 and 1994 the Oak Ridge station was one of the destination points of the National Railway Historical Society's steam rail excursion program. During these excursions approximately 900 passengers safely disembarked and re-boazded at Oak Ridge. The station is within two miles of Route 29, a major north-south highway comdor, which affords easy access to Nelson County and Central Virginia. Oak Ridge Estate with its 5,000 acres and diversity of historical assets, including the train station, is increasingly becoming a tourism destination, as evidenced by this summer's Camp Jeep event sponsored by Daimler-Chrysler Corporation. Camp Jeep brought 9,000 visitors to Nelson County and resulted in an investment of approximately two and one-half million dollars in the economies of Nelson County and Central Virginia. In addition to Oak Ridge Estate, which is in its initial phase(s) of redevelopment, P. O. Box 336 • Lovingston, Virginia 22949 • (804) 263-4873 • Fax (804) 263-4135 .. • ~"'" Wintergreen, a nationally recognized resort community and a key to Nelson County's economy, will benefit from passenger service to Nelson County via Oak Ridge. These are but two of the many examples in Nelson County and Central Virginia that will support passenger service to Oak Ridge and in turn be supported by it. Another important consideration is that passenger service to Nelson County at Oak Ridge strengthens the viability and sustainability of the passenger service initiative proposed by the Department of Rail and Public Transportation pursuant to its 1994 feasibility study of this subject. As first steps towards this effort, County staff have met with representatives from Oak Ridge Estate and Wintergreen Resort to discuss preliminary planning and need assessments in relation to the commencement of rail service to Nelson County via Oak Ridge's train station. All those participating in the strategy session agreed that passenger service to Oak Ridge is viable and is an immediate objective to be pursued and obtained. Also, letters/documentation in support of this initiative have been requested (those received are enclosed herein). Further, County staff have contacted state legislators to seek their support for both the passenger service project and an Oak Ridge train station. And, the Thomas Jefferson Planning I}istrict Commission, which Nelson County is a member jurisdiction, has included the passenger rail service project with stops at Oak Ridge within its Legislative Program for the 2000 General Assembly Session. Lastly, County staffwill continue to monitor and pursue the project, including assistance, as may be required, with the legislation necessary to authorize and' fund the projects. In conclusion, the local government of .Nelson County is entirely supportive of passenger rail service between Bristol and both Richmond and Washington DC. And, of foremost importance, the County is in utmost support of establishing the Oak Ridge Train Station as an important link in the proposed passenger rail service. It is Nelson County's request that the Department of Rail and Public Transportation continue to seek the approval of the proposed initiative and to incorporate a Nelson County destination through the addition of the Oak Ridge Train Station. Please do not hesitate to contact this office for further information or for assistance. Any advice or information that the Department can provide conducive to Nelson County's proposal would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your review of this submission and your continued assistance and cooperation. Respectfully, Stephen A.

ITEM NUMBER ~~ -~ AT A REGULAR MEETING OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF ROANOKE COUNTY, VIRGINIA HELD AT THE ROANOKE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION CENTER MEETING DATE: January 25, 2000 AGENDA ITEM: Revenues and Expenses for the Six Month Period Ending December 31, 1999 COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR'S COMMENTS: SUMMARY OF INFORMATION: I am attaching schedules showing the budget to actual comparison of revenues and expenses for the six month period ended December 31, 1999. Average revenue and expenses for this period should be approximately 50% of budget. Several of our large revenues however will not come under this standard. Real estate taxes are due December 5, and June 5. Real Estate at 48.4% is not alarming because the second payment for the fiscal year will be based on the January 2000 increased assessment. Personal property taxes are due May 30, 2000 so the collections to date relate only to delinquent tax collections and taxes on the purchase of new vehicles. The State portion of personal property payment is recorded under the non-categorical aid line. At this time the entire budget for personal property taxes is reflected in the personal property tax line. However, the actual revenues are being divided according to the funding source. The budget will be reallocated later in the year as we know the proper allocation. On the expenditure side the majority of the departments are around 50% of budget The cultural enrichment category and contributions to human service category are both higher because most of these contributions are distributed to the agencies at the beginning of the fiscal year. Institutional care is cone-time payment to the State.

If you have projects you would like added to this report, please let me know. Regional Fire Training Center Construction on the regional training center continues to be on schedule. The building is completely under roof and interior work (plumbers, electricians, sprinkler and HVAC) is going on each day. The brick masons have started laying brick as weather and temperature permits. It is anticipated that the metal roofing will be installed later this month and work will begin on the installation of interior metal walls by the end of month. The quality of work continues to be very good and the working relationship continues to be excellent between owner, architect and contractor. Completion is still projected for June 2000. Center for Research & Technology The water line is under construction on Glenmary Drive, and the sewer line pre-construction meeting was held on January 13th. Construction of the sewer line will require closing Glenvar Heights Boulevard for up to one week. The pre-bid meeting for the industrial access road is scheduled for January 24th. The delay was due to special requirement by VDOT which tightens the time line. The brochure is being revised and will go to print in the next 7 -10 days. Staff is seeking new bids for the entrance sign and marque because the first bids were above the established budget range. Landscaping & lighting plans being developed. / r ^~ Roanoke County -Roanoke City Water Interconnections Roanoke City ceased the purchase of Roanoke County water in mid-December; however; we are still trading approximately 1.5 million gallons of water per day. The County and City have agreed to jointly construct the Loch Haven Phase II water line which will provide additional interconnections inthe Plantation Road/ Williamson Road area. These interconnections will be in addition to our existing interconnections along Peters Creek Road, Ogden Road, Grandin Road and Challenger Road. These interconnections will allow Roanoke County and Roanoke City to provide each other in excess of 4 million gallons of water per day when needed. Construction of this line is scheduled to begin in late February and should be complete by late spring. Roanoke Valley Juvenile Detention Center Construction remains on schedule for the Phase I portion of the project. The construction is expected to be completed in May, 2000 for pods C, D, E, and F which contain 58 cell units. The 10 bed Pod C will be used for the administrative space while the remainder of the facility is renovated and re-built. Pods E and F are fully enclosed so that interior work may proceed even during inclement weather. Pods C and D should be enclosed by Mid-February. The security doors are being installed and bed units are being poured. We will be hiring staff approximately April 1, 2000 so that they may be trained, become familiar with existing operations, and help to transition into the new facility. All activities remain on schedule at this time. Staff will also be working with the Board of Juvenile Justice to see if any additional funding can be obtained to offset more of the capital construction costs for the new facility. Courthouse Improvements and Salem Office Supply Building In the Courthouse project, the renovation of the space for the Commonwealth's Attorney has been completed and the design of space for the Clerk of the Juvenile and Domestic Relations Court is being finalized. Actual construction forthe Clerk's area will begin when the Court Service Unit moves into the Salem Office Supply Building. Quotations are being received for the hazardous materials abatement of the Guy House and the Salem Office Supply. That work is anticipated for February. The plans for the interior demolition work at Salem Office Supply building have been received and are being reviewed. The demo work will begin as soon as the hazardous material abatement is completed. The architect had to switch to a new mechanical engineer in order to complete the plans for renovation and the new completion date for review is January 31. We will then bid the construction work for completion in the spring of 2000. . - N' _ 8` Respectfully submitted: ~~~ Elmer C.

Hodge, County Administrator From: W. Brent Robertson, Budget Director Date: January 25, 2000 Re: FY 2000 Mid-Year Expenditure Analysis Attached you will find the mid-year expenditure report as of December 31, 1999. This report encompasses all Roanoke County operating units within the General Fund. The attached report contains: ~- FY 1999-2000 adjusted budgets ~ Year-to-Date actual expenditures as of 12/31/99 ~.- Encumbrances as of 12/31/99 «~ Remaining Balances as of 12/31/99 ~- Yeaz-to-Date percent expended as of 12/31/99 As a general benchmark, departments should have spent approximately 50% of budget through six months. However, though a department may have expenditures that surpass the 50% mazk, it is not necessarily an indication that the department will have a yeaz-end deficit. Similarly, a department spending less than 50% of its budget through six months will not necessarily retain a surplus at year-end. Any area that has significantly departed from this threshold is shaded on the attached report and discussed in detail below. Economic Development (70.1% of Budget) The Economic Development Budget contains contributions to several local agencies. Traditionally, these agencies have received payment at the beginning of the fiscal year. These contributions represent a sizeable portion of the department's budget. When these amounts are adjusted out, the percent expended for economic development is well within the acceptable 50% range. Circuit Court 39.5% of Budget This low percent expended results from the City not billing the Circuit Court for Shared Salary and other operational costs until later in the fiscal yeaz. No significant surplus is anticipated. General District Court (17.1% of Budget Training and other educational opportunities provided by national and state bar associations are not scheduled until the second half of this fiscal year. No significant surplus is anticipated. 3-1 01/25/2000 Page 2 Court Service Unit (35.8% of Bud~etl This low percentage expended is a result of delayed billing. Clients served through this unit are currently in counseling and/or treatment programs. Billing statements will not be received for these services until clients have completed the programs. No significant surplus is anticipated. Fire and Rescue (54.2% of Budget) Overtime related to fighting the Fort Lewis Mountain fire and contracted services to the Kroger Distribution Center contributed to this department being slightly over the 50% range. A special allocation from the Board of Supervisors and a reimbursement from Kroger, both expected in January 2000, will bring this department in line with budgeted expenditures. Contributions The three categories of contributions (Social Service, Human Service, and Cultural Service Organizations) reflect an expenditure level that is a function of the timing of organizational requests for payment. Many of the organizations request funding at the beginning of our fiscal year. Youth Haven II (41.7% of Budget) This facility was not fully operational for several weeks during the last quarter of 1999. Its census was not at capacity nor was it fully staffed. A decision regarding the status of this facility is pending. 3-2 Roanoke County Mid-Year Expenditure Report FY 1998-00 Expenditures through 12131199 Adjusted Actual Remaining Percent FY 99-00 Budget Expenditures Encumbered Balance Expended @12131/99 ~ 12/31/99 @12!31!99 Car12/31/99 Year-To-Date _ General Government SubTund General Administration: 0 000 131 47.9°b Board of Su rvisors 251,611 98 120,611 482 106 629 1 , 107,187 50.2% Cou Administrator 215,2 , , 0 908 58 47.7°~ Asst Co Admin-M t Services 112,546 53,639 0 , 896 73 51.6°~ Asst.

ITEM NUMBER D ~ •Z- AT A REGULAR MEETING OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF ROANOKE COUNTY, VIRGINIA HELD AT THE ROANOKE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION CENTER MEETING DATE: January 25, 2000 AGENDA ITEM: Prioritization and Scheduling of future Work Sessions COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR'S COMMENTS: SUMMARY OF INFORMATION: There are several issues that should be discussed in work session format before action is taken. I want to review these with the Board so we may prioritize them, and schedule work sessions over the next several months. By scheduling these work sessions in advance, staff will have adequate time to prepare the information you will need. Review of goals set in July Beginning in July, the Board and staff developed goals and objectives for County Administration. These goals were revised by the Board members and were included on the October 26, 1999 agenda. That list is attached. The Board should schedule a work session to review these goals and objectives and revise if necessary. Update on Economic Development Strategy The Economic Development Strategy was adopted by the Board on April 14, 1998 and revised in 1999 to be included in the Community Plan. Anew Economic Development Director, David Porter, has now been hired, and I would like to review and update the Economic Development Strategy by emphasizing clusters that were recently identified by the Fifth Planning District Commission. I would also like to establish a support and advisory committee made up of local business persons. Status Report on Non-standard Refuse Collection Methods The Board held a work session on July 27, 1999 to discuss non-standard methods of refuse collections. Since that time, we have been working through the exceptions to the established policies to bring them into compliance, and would like to report on these efforts. d- Consideration of charging for rescue_calls This issue comes up every year during our budget process due to increased needs for rescue equipment and staffing. The Board may again wish to consider this as a funding option and schedule a work session to discuss further. Joint Work Sessions with the School Board to discuss capital projects The Board of Supervisors and School Board should schedule work sessions throughout this year to discuss the school capital needs and receive updates from the School Board on the current school construction projects. Regular Budget Work Sessions The following is a tentative budget work session schedule for the FY2000-2001 budget development. Additional budget work sessions may also be necessary. January: Mid-year Revenue and Expenditure Report FY00-01 Revenue Overview February: CIP Review (can be deferred until March) (Public Hearings on tax rates, assessments, and General Comment are also held in February) March: Contributions -Social Service, Cultural, Tourism Organizations, and Update on contract with United Way Expenditures -Salaries, Insurance, Departmental needs Joint Work Session with School Board April Volunteer Fire and Rescue Chiefs Work Session on proposed budget and adoption of school budget STAFF RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the Board prioritize and schedule the work sessions listed above.

Keith Mawyer (State Department of Taxation), (iii) my letter requesting clarification (dated January 10, 2000), (iv) Mr. Mawyer's response dated January 12, 2000, and (v) report on acreage and number of parcels in the land use program by magisterial district. I have not included the voluminous materials (the record of the Board's action in September, 1999, the Chesterfield County Circuit Court decision, the various opinions of the Attorney General on this topic, the roll-back tax bill for the Roger Smith transaction, and the correspondence of Paxton Marshall, the use value "expert" from VPI&SU) from the previous meetings. These are available from the Clerk or my office. To summarize the discussions over the past two meetings: The County has adopted an ordinance providing for the use value assessment and taxation of real estate for agricultural, horticultural, forestall and open space uses. This ordinance allows for the assessment and taxation of certain qualifying land on the basis of its value based upon use rather than fair market value. The goal of the use value program is to preserve and protect agricultural land from development through preferential assessment and taxation. Property is assessed and taxed based upon its use rather than its fair market value. Property taxes on qualifying property are much lower than all other property. The program attempts to relieve the property owner of some of the pressures to sell or alter the use of the land in order to meet local real estate tax obligations. In certain situations (change in use, reduction in minimum required acreage, rezoning to more intensive uses, failure to meet the other applicable conditions for the program, failure to pay real estate taxes, separation orsplit-off of lots or parcels) the qualifying real estate shall be subject to additional taxes, known as roll-back taxes. The roll-back tax is equal to the sum of the difference in taxes between the use value amount and the fair market value amount for each of the five most recent tax years. ~".~ Section 58.1-3241 of the State Code provides that the separation or split-off of lots, pieces or parcels of land from the real estate which is being valued, assessed and taxed under the use value program, either by conveyance or other action of the owner, shall subject the property so separated to liability for roll-back taxes. The transaction that triggered the Board's interest in this topic involves roll-back taxes in the amount of $8,461.89. Mr. Birckhead discussed this roll-back tax liability due to the proposed separation or split with the owner in late July, 1999 prior to the execution of the contract. This transaction involved 133 acres; it closed in November, 1999 for $197,000. Several Board members questioned the fairness of assessing roll-back taxes in this situation (splits/subdivided property). Staffbelieves that assessing roll-back taxes in split/subdivided property situations is fair and consistent with the overall goals of the use value program. The use value program is an exemption or deferral from taxation. Virginia adheres to the rule of strict construction of tax exemptions. Taxation is the rule; exemption from taxation is the exception. Under the Constitution of Virginia, Article X, Section 6(f) exemptions from taxation are strictly construed a_ aig_nst the taxpayer or person claiming the exemption. When a tax statute is susceptible to two constructions, one granting an exemption and the other denying it, the latter construction is adopted. This is based upon the announced policy of the Commonwealth: to distribute the tax burden uniformly and upon all property. The use value program is intended to preserve land in agricultural, forestal, horticultural or open space use. The separation or subdivision of land fosters development. Fostering development (by allowing splits/subdivision of property without roll-back tax liability) is inconsistent with the goals of the use value program: preservation and protection of qualifying land from development through preferential assessment and taxation. The Board discussed several alternatives: amendments to the State Code, judicial review by the aggrieved parties, formal opinions, Board action, and no action (allow staffto administer the program). Mr. McNamara requested answers to several questions at the last work session. 1) What are the reasons for this provision of State law; why was it put in place? Unfortunately the General Assembly does not regularly include "legislative history" with its enactments. Therefore I can only speculate as to its reasons. Reasonable people can differ over the "reason why". I believe that the General Assembly identified problems with the use value program, and it addressed those problems by tightening certain elements of the program: if the landowner failed to pay the reduced, use value assessed real estate taxes, he/she wouldbesubject toroll-back taxes and removed from the program; if the landowner applied for a rezoning to a more intensive use, then he/she would be liable for roll-back taxes. Also if the landowner conveyed away a portion of property (separated or split-off a lot, piece or parcel) in the program, then just that separated portion would be subject to roll- back tax. I believe that this result is based upon the view that the separation or split-off of lots is the first step in development of the property, and development of the property is inconsistent with the goals of agricultural land preservation and the purposes of the use value assessment program. 2 Contrary to Mr. Mawyer's opinion, I believe that the second paragraph of Sec. 58.1-3241(A) applies only to a "subdivision". I draw a distinction between a "subdivision" (which includes the recordation of a plat subdividing property with the Clerk of the Circuit Court) and the actual conveyance of a lot or parcel of subdivided land. Farmer Mahoney may subdivide his agricultural property (i.e. place a subdivision plat of record) but still avoid roll-back tax liability by meeting certain conditions (meeting minimum acreage requirements, attestation of purpose). Once Farmer Mahoney actually conveys that lot or parcel, then roll-back tax liability on the conveyed lot or parcel arises. Mr. Mawyer's interpretation essentially guts the entire first paragraph of any meaning or purpose. My interpretation lets both co-exist together. 2) Next, Mr. McNamara asked about the philosophy of land use: does it keep farmers farming, and do real estate taxes drive farmers off their property. Agricultural economists have long debated this question. The availability of and access to markets, the price of seed, fertilizer, equipment, labor, etc. probably have a far greater effect on agricultural economics than local real estate taxes. Virginia has taken this step to provide an incentive (at the localities' cost) to preserve agricultural land. Other states utilize similar programs, and at least one ties agricultural preservation to that state's income tax. Some academics have published studies to show that a local use value assessment program has no effect on the rate of agricultural land conversion, by comparing land conversion rates in localities that have adopted such programs to those that have not. The public policy of Roanoke County is to provide this incentive in order to help preserve land in agricultural, forestal and open space uses. In this situation the conveyance of a portion of the property in the land use program would trigger liability for roll-back taxes. One could assume that a portion of the proceeds from closing could pay the roll-back taxes. This would not drive farmers from the family farm. It is recommended that the Board follow legal precedent, and continue to allow staff to administer this program as directed by State law, court decision and opinions of the Attorney General Respectfully submitted, ~v1 Paul M.

Roanoke, vrginia..24031-3186 Dear Mr. Nidcens: ~,. , This. is in reply to your fax transmission of December 20, 1999,. nsgarding the land use. program. You state that you will be deliberating the meaning of Section 56.1- 3241 of the Code of Vrginia rotative to the roll-bade tax and that you would lilts my administrative opinion. Acknowledging that we must allow the statutes to speak for themselves, I will be happy to provide my understanding of the roll-bade provisions that currently apply to parcels in the land use program. As I stated in my letter of December 6, 1999, to Mr. Paul Mahoney. County Attomey, if the county would like a legal opinion concerning a specific question, you may wish to consult the Office of the Attorney General. In general, the law provides for the roll-back tax to be invoked in three circumstances: 1) when a change in use occurs, 2) when a zoning change occurs at the requesf of an owner or his agent, and 3) when a subdivision of property occurs whereby the remaining parcels no forger meet the minimum acreage requirements, or having met the acreage requirements, the owner does not att®st to the fact that the use will remain compatible with the provisions of Section 58.1-3230 of the Code. This latter provision is the essence of Section .58.1-3241 of the Code which you wiN be discussing this afternoon. When interpreting any of the provisions in the law relating to the land use program;. you may find. it helpful to consider the intent of the law as provided in the declaration of policy restated below for your convenience.

Although land use tax deferrals ere admittedly small~incentive to reduce intensive development, the program intends to encourege~the preservation of land by allowing the inevitable separation of percale es long as minimum acreage and use requirements are met. Contrery to this, a policy of invoking aroll-bads tax on virtually every separation of land may tend to encourage more intensive development to the same extent that these tax incentives currently discourage intensive development. This may occur despite the fact that many subdivided parcels mould or would have continued with uses compatible with the land use program as provided in Section 56.1-3230 of the Code. In addition, lunderstand -that there is a concern that no application for assessment based on use may be accepted if at the time the application is filed, the tax on the land is delinquent. The inchoate lien that resides on a parcel in the amount of the deferred tax does not represent a delinquent tax. Rathsr~ the lien resides on the parcel indefinitely until such time as one of the. three events that are .referenced above actually .triggers aroll-back tax Evan. then, the lien will not represent a delinquent tax unless a bill remains. unpaid as provided by law. I hope that this information will be helpful. ff I may be of any further assistance, please do ;not hesitate to contact me at (804) 367020. Sincerely, ~. fi.,Keith Mawyer Property Tax Manager.

Box 2460 Richmond, VA 23218 Dear Mr. Mawyer: JOSEPH B. OBENSHAIN SENIOR ASSISTANT COUNTY ATTORNEY VICKIE L. HUFFMAN ASSISTANT COUNTY ATTORNEY ~sao~ nz-zon On behalf of Dr. Nickens and the other members of the Roanoke County Board of Supervisors, I would like to thank you for your administrative opinion dated December 21, 1999 concerning the interpretation of Section 58.1-3241 of the Code of Virginia, and its application to roll-back tax liability. As you are aware, County staff assessed roll-back taxes on a transaction that separated 133 acres from a 233 acre parcel that had been in the land use program since 1981. The Board has questioned this administrative action, since your staff has advised us that many other localities in the Commonwealth do not interpret Section 58.1-3241 to authorize the imposition of roll-back taxes in such a situation. The Board has reviewed the statute, the 1991 circuit court decision from Chesterfield County A( llen v. County of Chesterfield), the various opinions of the Attorney General, materials from Paxton Marshall, and your administrative opinion letter. In consideration of the conflict among these authorities and your administrative opinion, I am seeking clarification from you of certain elements in your administrative opinion. The Board has deferred further action on this matter until its January 25, 2000 meeting. 1) Please clarify your interpretation of Section 58.1-3241(A). The first paragraph appears to require roll-back tax liability for any separation or split-off of a lot, piece or parcel of land from the real estate in the land use program, whether or not the separated or split-off portion meets the minimum acreage requirements. The second paragraph appears to distinguish separated or split-off lots or pieces of land from the subdivision of property. This paragraph contains the attestation provision (parcels which meet the minimum acreage requirement and which the owner attests is for the purposes of Sec. 58.1-3230, will not be subject to roll-back tax liability). Is there a conflict between these two paragraphs? Or can these two paragraphs be read together to describe two different situations with two different tax consequences? Do you agree that the first paragraph imposes a uniform rule that all owner-initiated transactions that separate or split-off a piece or parcel of ®Recycled Paper tom- 3 H. Keith Mawyer Page Two January 10, 2000 land shall result in roll back tax liability for the separated or split-off portion? 2) Please reconcile your administrative opinion with respect to the 1991 Chesterfield County circuit court decision. Does your Department follow this opinion, or do you ignore it? 3) Please reconcile your administrative opinion with respect to the recent opinion of the Attorney General dated October 29, 1999 to the Honorable William K. Barlow concerning the imposition of roll-back taxes to a real estate transaction in Prince George County ("Under this provision [Sec. 58.1-3241(A)], it is the action of the owner selling the property that triggers roll-back tax liability."). 4) Is Roanoke County legally justified by Sec. 58.1-3241(A) in imposing roll-back taxes on the separated or split-off piece or parcel of land in this transaction? 5) If you believe that Roanoke County is not legally justified in imposing roll-back taxes on this transaction, then what is your opinion with respect to the purpose and meaning of Sec. 58.1-3241(A)? 6) Mr. Morelli in your office advises us that only 3 other localities in the Commonwealth interpret Sec. 58.1-3241(A) to require roll-back taxes on such transactions. If Roanoke County is correctly interpreting Sec. 58.1-3241(A), then why do these other localities fail to administer correctly this statute? 7} What is the meaning and purpose of Section 58.1-3241? What public policy goal does it promote? I thank you in advance for your assistance in this matter. If your schedule permits, the Board would value your presence at its work session on Tuesday, January 25, 2000. This work session will begin approximately 4:30 pm. ery truly yours, Paul M. Mahoney County Attorney PMM/spb • .~ nw, De~iartment of Taxation January 12, 2000 Mr. Paul Mahoney County Attorney County of Roanoke P. 0. Box 29800 Roanoke, Virginia 24018-0798 Dear Mr. Mahoney: ~~~~~ VLF- V ~ ~ 1 R ~nnti This is in reply to your letter of January 10, 2000, concerning the additional questions that you and the Board of Supervisors have on the issue of roll back taxes pursuant to Section 58.1-3241 of the Code of Virginia. I will be happy to provide my administrative opinion of the situation. Rather than reiterate the questions you have posed, I will incorporate your letter in my reply by reference to the number in the order in which it is asked. 1) In my opinion there is no conflict between the two paragraphs. Like many statutes, this one must be read in its entirety in order to determine its relevance to each situation. Each situation must be analyzed on its own merit to determine if a subdivision has occurred, if the minimum acreage requirements are met, and if the owner will attest that the use will continue in uses compatible with the land use article. I agree that the wording of paragraph 1 subjects the real estate to the roll back tax, but the second paragraph goes on to say that the provisions of this subsection (referring to Subsection A of which both paragraphs are an integral part) will not apply if certain conditions are met as indicated. 2) My understanding of the Chestertield case is that the owners failed to attest that the real estate would be continued in uses compatible with the land use article. Further, it is my understanding that the decision of a local circuit court is not binding on the remainder of the Commonwealth. Thus, we cannot rely on this case to set policy that is counter to years of administrative interpretation and Opinions of the Attomey General supporting this interpretation. 3) I have read the Opinion of the Attomey General that you have cited, and it does ....«~ Mr. Mahoney January 12, 2000 Page 2 not apply to the matter at hand other than to refer to paragraph 1 and to the sale of 2.5 acres of land that no longer meets the minimum acreage requirement. In this case, the subdivision would have triggered the roll back even in the absence of a sale because an action of the owner resulted in a parcel which no longer met the minimum acreage requirement. This does not preclude one from reading the remainder of the subsection if a parcel does meet the minimum acreage requirements and the owner will make the proper attestation. 4) I do not know all of the details of this case, but if the owner has attested to the fact that the remaining 133 acres will remain in a use compatible with the land use article, then I do not believe that Roanoke County is justified in imposing a roll back tax. 5) As I have stated, Section 58.1-3241 (A) of the Code of Virginia (both paragraphs) must be read in its entirety. Paragraph 1 sets up the conditions for imposing the roll back tax in the event of a division of property while paragraph 2 enumerates the conditions which, if met, will excuse the property from any provisions of this subsection (Subsection B which has been excluded in our discussions provides for combining contiguous acreage located in separate jurisdictions for purposes of meeting the minimum acreage requirements referenced in Subsection A) . 6) Roanoke County is one of two localities that share the same interpretation of this statute. Chestefield County has already been discussed. The third locality to which you refer, Loudoun County, was contacted by telephone, and they do not share Chesterfield's interpretation. 7) Although the law must speak for itself, my opinion of the meaning and purpose of Section 58.1-3241(A) is to provide for the roll back tax to be imposed on parcels that are subdivided if the remaining parcels do not meet the minimum acreage and use requirements. The public policy or goal that it promotes is that enumerated in Section 58.1-3229 of the Code which was provided to Dr. Nickens in my letter of December 21, 1999. To the extent that tax relief provides an incentive for owners of property to continue uses compatible with this program, the imposition of back taxes provides a disincentive for such property to be removed from the program. For a legal opinion., you may wish to consult the Office of the Attorney General. If I may be of any further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact me at (804) 367-8020. Sincerely, ~l_ ~. H.

ITEM NO. "' AT A REGULAR MEETING OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF ROANOKE COUNTY, VIRGINIA, HELD AT THE ROANOKE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION CENTER MEETING DATE: January 25, 2000 AGENDA ITEM: Public Hearing and request for adoption of Resolutions of support for Transportation Equity Act for the 21st Century - Grant Applications COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR'S COMMENTS: BACKGROUND: In June 1998 President Clinton signed into law the Transportation Equity Act for the 21st Century (TEA-21) authorizing highway, highway safety and other surface transportation programs for the next six years. TEA-21 builds on the initiatives established by ISTEA. This new Act combines the continuation and improvement of current programs with new initiatives to meet the challenges of enhancing communities and the natural environment as we provide transportation. Ten percent of each state's Surface Transportation Program (STP) funds, one element of the entire funding program, are set aside for enhancements. In Virginia, this amounts to about $18.5 million a year through 2003. By federal law, these funds must be used for transportation enhancements and for. no other purpose. SUMMARY OF INFORMATION Staff has developed TEA-21 applications for three different projects. One of the requirements of the TEA-21 grants is that a resolution of support be received by the local government. These projects qualify in separate and distinct transportation enhancement categories so therefore do not compete against each other. However, the staff and I have ranked the projects in priority as follows: Priority #1 A $500,000 grant for the Blue Ridge Parkway Interpretive Center at Virginia's Explore Park, Phase II, for exhibit fabrication and ~' ~ / 2 installation, audio-visual equipment and facilities, related upfit and landscaping. This application requests $500,000 in TEA- 21 funds, matched by $167,000 in National Park Service and Roanoke County in-kind services and private donations. Priority #2 A $1.6 million grant application submitted jointly with the City of Salem for the design and construction of Phase I of the Roanoke River Greenwav, consisting of 7.2 miles in western Roanoke County and the City of Salem. This application requests $1.6 million in TEA-21 funds, to be matched by $527,000 in right- of-way donations, in-kind services and capital funds. Roanoke County's share of the capital funds would be $76,000 over three years or approximately $25,000 per year. Priority #3 A $500,000 grant application to identify and set priorities for viewshed areas along Vircrinia Scenic Byway Route 785 (Catawba/Blacksburg Road) and to obtain conservation easements through donation and purchase. This application requests $500,000 in TEA-21 funds, matched by $500,000 in land donation. No funds would be requested from Roanoke County. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Roanoke County Board of Supervisors concur with the priorities listed above and adopt resolutions of support for each of these grant applications.

'~ AT A REGULAR MEETING OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF ROANOKE COUNTY, VIRGINIA, HELD AT THE ROANOKE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION CENTER MEETING DATE: January 25, 2000 AGENDA ITEM: Request to Vacate an Undeveloped Portion of the 50 foot wide Goff Road Right-of-Way located at the Intersection of Enon Drive in North County in the Hollins Magisterial District upon the Petition of Alva and Myrtle Pullen and Margaret Camper COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR'S COMMENTS: BACKGROUND' Alva and Myrtle Pullen and Margaret Camper have requested that a 250 foot long, 50 foot wide unimproved public right-of-way known as Goff Road be vacated. The petitioners are property owners adjacent to the right-of-way. If vacated by Roanoke County, the right-of-way will be combined with the adjacent properties owned by the Pullen's and Ms. Camper. Staff has reviewed this request and has contacted all agencies that have or may have a future interest in this right- of-way. As a result of this review, staff believes it is appropriate to vacate the right-of-way, yet reserve for public use, public utility, public water and sewer, and public greenway easements. At first reading of this ordinance held on January 11, 2000, the Board of Supervisors requested information on the possible need for this right-of-way in conjunction with the development of the adjacent 40+ acre tract for commercial or industrial purposes. This adjacent property was rezoned to C-2 Conditional in 1990. David Porter and I have reviewed access options for this tract, and have concluded that the right-of-way proposed for vacation is not necessary or desirable as a point of future vehicular access to this site. S-a 2 The attached exhibit shows possible access options for this site. Desirable access to the site would be an extension of Friendship Lane to the property, and/or direct access from Carvins Street. Access from either or both of these points was discussed with VDOT in 1990, and conditions on the 1990 rezoning restrict access to these two options. Three unimproved public rights-of-way abut the west side of this economic development site. These are extensions of Dallas Road, Tinkerdale Road, and Goff Road, three residential streets. These are not desirable commercial access points as they would funnel commercial traffic into this R-1 residential neighborhood. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends as follows: 1. That the Board of Supervisors hold second reading and public hearing on an ordinance vacating an unimproved portion of the Goff Road right-of-way, with the reservation of public utility, water and sewer, and greenway easements for public use.

Tobias, Rail Operations and Passenger Section Virginia Department of Rail and Public Transportation 1401 East Broad Street Richmond, VA 23219 Re: Passenger Rail Service to I~.storic Oak Ridge Train Station Dear Mr. Tobias: STEPHEN A. CARTER Admnistrator VIRGIE A. CARTER, CMC Mmiru W alive Assistanu oaut,tyc~ent ELLA W. BROWNING AtLnvusV ativ9 Assistant/ FinanpOflicer The Nelson County Boazd of Supervisors herewith respectfully submits the enclosed resolution, which seeks to have the train station located at the historic Oak Ridge Estate in Nelson County designated as a destination stop for the proposed passenger rail service initiative from Richmond and Washington DC to Bristol, Virginia. Including the train station at Oak Ridge as one of the destination stops of the proposed passenger service is of critical importance to Nelson County. Tourism is Nelson County's primary industry and is a key component in Nelson County's efforts to expand and diversify its local economy. An operating rail station at Oak Ridge will enable Nelson County to increase its market share of tourism related .business and investments, which in turn will also create opportunities for new business and investments to be made in Nelson County and Central Virginia. Why Oak Ridge? Amtrak's current passenger service connections utilize Norfolk Southern's tracks, which are adjacent to Oak Ridge. The tracks adjoining the Oak Ridge station are double tracks, which will enable the establishment of passenger service to Nelson County without a significant investment in infrastructure to do so. The existing train station at Oak Ridge is in excellent condition. In 1993 and 1994 the Oak Ridge station was one of the destination points of the National Railway Historical Society's steam rail excursion program During these excursions approximately 900 passengers safely disembarked and re-boarded at Oak Ridge. The station is within two miles of Route 29, a major north-south highway corridor, which affords easy access to Nelson County and Central Virginia. Oak Ridge Estate with its 5,000 acres and diversity of historical assets, including the train station, is increasingly becoming a tourism destination, as evidenced by this summer's Camp Jeep event sponsored by Daimler-Chrysler Corporation. Camp Jeep brought 9,000 visitors to Nelson County and resulted in an investment of approximately two and one-half million dollars in the economies of Nelson County and Central Virginia.

ADOPTED: November 9, 1999 ATTEST• _SZc/>h„~_/~ ~~ ~` Clerk, Nelson County Board of Supervisors Cham~n o~ Comm~nc~ December 28, 1999 Dear Fellow Rail Enthusiast: ~. `_`- ~z ~~-. Support for the TransDominion Express continues to grow. Formerly referred to as the Bristol Rail Passenger Study, this expanded passenger rail proposal has now been endorsed by more than 60 communities, counties, and chambers across the Commonwealth. Over the next three weeks we will have the opportunity to again show our support for advancing the TransDominion Express. The 2000 General Assembly Legislative Money Committees have announced six public hearings on the 2000-2002 state budget. At each of the hearings, Money Committee members will listen to comments made by Commonwealth citizens regarding the Governor's proposed biennial budget (which does riot include n~orrey for the I'ransDoniinion Express). Please plan to attend the hearing in your region and ask committee members to make the TransDominion Express a funding priority. Enclosed you will find brief talking points which may be helpful in making your presentation to the Money Committees. If you prefer, you may want to share the talking points with your local government, Chamber or college(s) and ask that they include this information in their remarks to the committees. In addition, I encourage you to contact your local legislators to express your support for the TransDominion Express, and to ask that they advocate appropriating money to this project in the 2000-2002 state budget. It is important that we continue to work together to share information with our legislators and to speak with a unified voice. Thank you in advance for continuing to show public support for the TransDominion Express. So we can maintain a timely archive, please keep me abreast of activities, news articles and actions conducted in your area in support of expanding passenger rail service. Also, please complete the enclosed "TransDominion Express Support" sheet. Again, thank you for your support of the TransDominion Express. I look forward to continuing our partnership in moving this project forward. Sincerely, ~-~ ~--~d Rex Hammond Enclosures Office • 2015 Memorial Avenue • P.O.

TRANSDOMINION EXPRESS: EXPANDING PASSENGER RAIL ACROSS THE COMMONWEALTH 1998 Bristol Rail Passenger Study recommends proposed passenger rail service be implemented to connect southwestern Virginia with both Washington, D.C. and Richmond via Lynchburg. Creation of the TransDominion Express would decrease traffic congestion on highways and interstates, reduce air traffic pollution, increase safety, stimulate tourism and commerce and provide an efficient alternative to automobile travel. The TransDominion Express system would link the following communities: Bristol, Abingdon, Pulaski, Radford, Christiansburg, Roanoke and Bedford with Lynchburg. There, the line would split, continuing north to Washington through Charlottesville, Orange, Culpeper, Manassas and Alexandria, or east to Richmond by way of Appomattox and Farmville. • Trains would operate on existing tracks owned by Norfolk Southern Corporation, Conrail and Amtrak, with the exception of a small section owned by CSX,. Essentially, the only changes that would need to be made to existing tracks is the installation of spurs to allow freight and passenger traffic to exist on the same tracks. • Modern trainsets would be used to allow trains to maintain higher speeds. Increased speeds would be competitive with car travel time between desired destinations. • Implementing the TransDominion system is relatively inexpensive when compared to multi- billion dollar highway projects. Total capital costs to improve existing tracks and stations would be approximately $10 million. Initial operating costs are estimated to be $24.6 million. • It is expected 372,000 passengers will ride the trains annually, increasing to nearly 800,000 by 2020. In Washington State, similar passenger rail services connect Vancouver, British Columbia with Portland, Oregon. Almost 50% of the Washington riders are tourists. • The fare is estimated to be $0.20 per mile, or approximately $70.00 to ride from southwestern Virginia to Washington, D.C. • With the implementation of expanded passenger rail in southwestern Virginia, plans to expand high-speed rail from Washington, D.C. to Richmond would create a "passenger rail" loop in the Commonwealth. • To date, over 60 chambers, counties, cities and planning divisions have passed resolutions supporting expanded passenger rail in the Commonwealth. The TransDominion Express would be accessible to over 20 colleges and universities along the proposed train routes. 1998-99 Endorsements for Expanded Passenger Rail Service CITY/TOWN COUNCILS •Town Council of Abingdon •Town Council of Altavista •Appomattox Town Council •Amherst Town Council •City Council of Bedford •Blacksburg Town Council •Bristol City Council •Burkeville Town Council •Charlottesville City Council •Town Council of Chilhowie •Christiansbl~rg Town Cotmcil •Culpeper Town Council •Drakes Branch Town Council •Farmville Town Council •Town Council of Glade •Town council of Hillsville •Town Council of Kenbridge •Keysville Town Council •Lynchburg City Council •Town Council of Marion •Orange Town Council •Town Council of Pulaski •Radford City Council •Rural Retreat Town Council •Council of the City of Roanoke •The Council of the City of Salem •Town Council of Wytheville COUNTY BOARDS •Albemarle County Board of Supervisors •Appomattox County Board of Supervisors •Bedford County Board of Supervisors •Bland County Board of Supervisors •Campbell County Board of Supervisors •Charlotte County Board of Supervisors •Culpeper County Board of Supervisors •Ctunberland County Board of Supervisors •Montgomery County Board of Supervisors •Nelson County Board of Supervisors •Nottoway County Board of Supervisors •Prince Edward County Board of Supervisors •Pulaski County Board of Supervisors •Roanoke County Board of Supervisors • Smyth County Board of Supervisors •Washington County Board of Supervisors • Wythe County Board of Supervisors CHAMBERS/ASSOCIATIONS •Bristol Chamber of Commerce •Blacksburg Regional Chamber of Commerce •Fairfax County Chamber of Commerce •Farmville Area Chamber of Commerce •Greater Lynchburg Chamber of Commerce •Giles County Chamber of Commerce •Orange County Chamber of Commerce •Orange County Industrial Development Authority •Orange County Visitor's Bureau •Radford Chamber of Commerce • Salem/Roanoke County Chamber of Commerce • Smyth County Chamber of Commerce • Virginia West Business Legislative Coalition (14 chambers of commerce} • Wytheville-Wythe-Bland Chamber of Commerce PLANNING ORGANIZATIONS •Charlottesville-Albemarle Metropolitan Planning Organization •Mount Rogers Planning District Commission •New River Valley Planning District Commission •Piedmont Planning District Commission •Roanoke Valley Regional Commission •West Piedmont Planning District Commission TRANSPORTATION GROUPS •Bhie Ridge Chapter of the National Railway Historical Society •Greater Lynchburg Transit Company • Virginia High Speed Rail Development Committee COLLEGES/UNIVERSITIES •Longwood College •Radford University • Virginia Tech TRANSDONIINION EXPRESS SUPPORT SHEET Your Name: Your Organization: Your Address: Your Telephone Number: Your Fax Number: Your Email Address: Please indicate which activities and/or actions you have conducted in support of the TransDominion Express. ^ Made presentation to Money Committees at Public Hearing on at the following location ^ Contacted my legislator, to show my support for the TransDominion Express and ask that s/he make the TransDominion Express a funding priority in the 2000-2002 state budget. ^ Made appointment to meet with my legislator, to show my support for the TransDominion Express and ask that s/he make the TransDominion Express a funding priority in the 2000-2002 state budget. ^ Wrote a letter to my newspaper editor, highlighting the facts regarding the TransDominion Express and the needed funding to move the project forward. ^ Other (please describe) Please return completed questionnaire to: Katherine DeRosear, Vice President of Community Services Greater Lynchburg Chamber of Commerce P.O.
