ITEM NUMBER — AT A REGULAR MEETING OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF ROANOKE COUNTY, VIRGINIA HELD AT THE ROANOKE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION CENTER MEETING DATE: May 13, 1997 AGENDA ITEM: Request for Authorization to enter into a Contract for County -wide Drop -Off Recycling COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR'S COMMENTS: Recommend approval of the request to negotiate a contract. The contract will be brought back to the Board for approval. In October 1987, Roanoke County began a pilot program to study curbside collection of recyclables. The original program consisted of source separation, with homes in some areas receiving stackable bins for newspaper, aluminum and glass for collection on a biweekly basis. In 1989, this program was expanded into another area of the County. The participation rate for this program has averaged between 25-35% per biweekly collection. In the early 1990's, the County began automated commingled collection, with selected homes receiving 65 gallon containers in which to commingle mixed paper, aluminum, plastic and cardboard. With a monthly pickup schedule, participation rates have ranged from 70% to 80%. The cost of the program for 1995/96 was $81,370. The Board asked staff to review this pilot program along with possibilities for providing this service equitably on a County -wide basis. At a work session on March 25, the following recycling options were presented for consideration: (1) Commingled recycling to the entire county at a cost of $1.14 million in capital and $220,200 in operating costs. (2) Expansion of source separation to the entire County at a cost of $.8 million in capital and $181,000 in operating costs. (3) Privatization of county -wide drop off centers through the RFP process at an annual estimated cost of $85,000. At the March 25 work session, the consensus of the Board was to pursue privatization of drop-off centers through the RFP process, j — t/ which would allow all County households an equal opportunity to recycle. The cost of this was expected to be approximately $85,000 annually, and had the advantage of working with the local business community to provide a service. At the April 8th meeting, the Board directed staff to advertise a Request for Proposal that would include curbside source separated collection, drop-off centers, and any other options that may be available. Proposals were received from Waste Management and Cycle Systems. Neither company offered a curbside option. Both drop-off proposals are within the $85,000 cost estimates presented to the Board. ALTERNATIVES: 1) Negotiate and enter into a contract to provide recycling services with drop-off centers placed around the County and conclude the curbside pilot program. 2) Expand curbside collection to the entire County with additional personnel and equipment. 3) Maintain current recycling program. Engaging a contractor to provide recycling services with drop-off locations would cost approximately $85,000 annually. Savings from the conclusion of the existing program would provide approximately $35,000 annually, making the cost of providing this service $50,000 annually which would should be included in the 1997/98 budget. If the Board of Supervisors agrees with the proposed method of county -wide recycling with drop-off centers, $50,000 should be allocated in the 1997-98 budget for the program. Staff will finalize the contract and bring it back to the Board for approval. Respectfully sub 'tted, c. William J.

Donnelley at Valley TechPark COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR'S COMMENTS: X,t49'�4UJ'' BACKGROUND INFORMATION: R.R. Donnelley and Sons has completed Phase I of its four- color book manufacturing facility at Valley TechPark. This phase was originally estimated as a $63 million investment, but actual expenditure by Donnelley is now $75 million. As part of this project, Roanoke County offered Donnelley an incentive package which was outlined in the Performance Agreement approved by the Board of Supervisors on February 20, 1996. The estimated cost of the incentives for the first phase was $2.5 million, but the County identified a variety of cost-saving measures, and has experienced a savings of $982,813. Donnelley has requested that Roanoke County use these savings to start on the second part of the incentive package, grading the rear portion of the site. T.P. Parker and Sons has prepared a grading plan for this, and the low bid for the project is $699,000 for the grading, and $32,660 for the earthwork testing, for a total of $731,600. This bid expires soon. SUMMARY OF INFORMATION: There are several advantages to proceeding at this time with the grading of this property: o The price at this time is reasonable, and easily covered by the savings from this project. Construction costs are likely to rise, which would make the grading more expensive in the future. C- 3 o There is one remaining site at Valley TechPark, which would benefit topographically from being filled. This provides a place for the dirt removed from the Donnelley site, which saves the cost of hauling it away for disposal. The grading contract will provide a twelve month period for completion of the work, so that the earth can dry naturally as it is moved, which is preferable and makes it higher quality fill. o If Donnelley does not use the site as promised, it reverts to the County under the Performance Agreement. The tract of land would already be graded, and could be marketed as another industrial site, or accessed from the residential neighborhood for recreational purposes. o While there is no commitment from Donnelley at this time regarding when expansion is planned, the plant is already running at capacity and the future of the facility is outstanding. Grading the land will allow Donnelley to expand quickly when current capacity becomes full. FISCAL IMPACT: The funding for the grading, $731,600, is currently available in Economic Development accounts, from the savings experienced in the first part of the project. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that this request be approved. The benefits of proceeding now are clear, and will represent an investment in the future of Donnelley and Valley TechPark.

ITEM NUMBER 4t�=- V AT A REGULAR MEETING OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF ROANOKE COUNTY, VIRGINIA, HELD AT THE ROANOKE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION CENTER MEETING DATE: May 13, 1997 AGENDA ITEM: Request for $100,000 advance funding to construct the neighborhood park in Mayflower Hills 11111�111 - On January 14, 1997, Roanoke County authorized Resolution 011497-3 requesting funding from the Roanoke Valley Resource Authority for a neighborhood park in the Mayflower Hills Community (attached). The Resolution stated that Roanoke County Parks and Recreation would be responsible for design and construction of the neighborhood park. On March 17, 1997, the Roanoke Valley Resource Authority notified Roanoke County that consent letters had been received from all three localities to approve a one-time grant up to $100,000 to Roanoke County for construction of a community park in the Mayflower Hills section of Roanoke County. The creation of the neighborhood park is the result of a commitment to the community made in 1973 when the former Roanoke Regional Landfill was originally located at the Rutrough Road site. Landfill closure regulations prohibit this type of neighborhood park on a former landfill, consequently, Virginia's Explore Park agreed to donate land for the park. The Resource Authority notification stipulated that the use of the funds was for the elements identified in the resolution, i.e. multi -use ball field, playground, picnic shelter, etc., and that upon completion of construction, the Resource Authority would authorize the appropriate grant payment. C. -q Meetings with Parks and Recreation and Explore staff and a meeting with the Mayflower Hills community have been held in preparation and planning for the neighborhood park. A rough time table for the park's completion coincides with the opening of the Roanoke River Parkway next spring. if the survey work, architectural design and engineering and subsequent grading, seeding, and construction go as scheduled, the park would be completed by next April or May. Actual placement has been discussed and the priority of park elements has been determined. To proceed with the construction of the neighborhood park, advance funds in the amount of $100,000, are needed. These funds will be reimbursed in the form of a grant from the Roanoke Valley Resource Authority upon completion of the park's construction. $100,000 from the unappropriated capital fund balance. Funds for this project will be reimbursed by a grant from the Roanoke Valley Resource Authority for the exact amount of the neighborhood park once construction is completed, not to exceed $100,000. �1110 _XV -11-3-1141 W_1 �. Staff recommends that: 1.) The Board of Supervisors authorize $100,000 for advance funding of the Mayflower Hills neighborhood park to be managed by Roanoke County Parks and Recreation. 2.) The Board authorize County staff to notify the Resource Authority when the construction of the neighborhood park is completed and request payment for the actual amount, not to exceed $100,000. 3.)

Chief xecutive Officer Attachment 1020 Hollins Road Roanoke, Virginia 24012 (540) 857-5050 Fax (540) 857-5056 A-051397-5 ACTION NO, ITEM NUMBER AT A REGULAR MEETING OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF ROANOKE COUNTY, VIRGINIA HELD AT THE ROANOKE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION CENTER MEETING DATE: May 13, 1997 AGENDA ITEM: Roanoke County Parks and Recreation Department Public Use Manual for Sports Organizations and Community Users • ►Y: I u 1 e W Y:: • 1APEOL6101UT Recommend approval of the Parks and Recreation Community Use Manual. This will set standards for Parks and Recreation operations that will be very good to have in place. I do support the director's position and that of the County Attorney to require users of our athletic facilities to provide their own liability insurance. We cannot anticipate how their operations will be handled, and this protects the County. If they choose to operate without liability insurance, that is a decision that can be made by each user at his own risk. BACKGROUND: The development of the Community Use Manual was initiated by department staff to provide a policy and procedural guide for the community use of Roanoke County Parks and Recreation facilities, athletic fields, and parks. The Parks and Recreation Advisory Commission appointed a subcommittee to work with staff on this project and has been actively involved in its development. The manual was then presented to the full Advisory Commission followed by numerous meetings between staff and presidents of the youth recreation clubs. It has also been reviewed by the County Attorney and the Risk Manager. On July 9, 1996, the Board of Supervisors reviewed the manual for the first time in a work session. The Board directed staff to determine if general liability insurance and directors' insurance was necessary. They also requested that the manual be reviewed by the School Administration. These issues are addressed in the Summary of Information below. SUMMARY OF INFORMATION: The manual establishes the basic level of services to be provided by the Parks and Recreation Department, and provides a framework for the management of the department's facilities. The procedures enable staff to provide uniform administration of the process and equitable treatment of our customers in the operation of instructional programs, special events, sports leagues, sports tournaments, and rentals. It establishes the scheduling policies to make optimum use of our facilities. It also defines participation guidelines to help staff manage their budgets and determine future facility needs. These standards help ensure the protection of facilities and the provision of quality programs. At the July 9 work session, the Board requested that staff review the requirements for a sports organization to be sanctioned by our department to determine if general liability insurance and directors' insurance was necessary. Section IV on page 3 of the manual outlines these requirements. Following the work session, staff asked the County Attorney and the Risk Manager to review this item. The County Attorney strongly recommends that our policy require sports organizations to have general liability insurance and officers' and directors' insurance. This insurance requirement is primarily designed to protect the County, and by protecting the County, it also protects the County taxpayer. Insurance also protects the sports organization and its individual members from personal financial catastrophe. The Risk Manager researched whether the sports organizations may purchase insurance coverage through the County's insurance coverage. There is no insurance to purchase since the County is self-insured for purposes of workers' compensation and general liability. The volunteers of the sports organizations are not employees of Roanoke County as defined by the State Code. Section 15.1-7.3:1 of the State Code authorizes a local governing body to provide liability insurance or self-insurance for its officers, employees or volunteers, including a commission or board "created or controlled by the local governing body." The Recreation Club Boards have complete control over the operations of their individual programs. Parks and Recreation provides facilities and general program coordination. The degree of direction and control necessary to be exercised by the County over these organizations in order to manage these risks for purposes of "insurability" is so great as to practically destroy the independent, volunteer nature of these organizations. It is important to note that out of the ten recreation clubs, six currently have some type of liability insurance, and another two have expressed interest in obtaining it. The Board also requested that the Roanoke County School Administration review the manual. This was completed and the school administration expressed no concerns and approved the policy manual. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Board of Supervisors adopt the Public Use Manual for Sports Organizations and Community Users as presented.

ITEM NUMBER AT A REGULAR MEETING OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF ROANOKE COUNTY, VIRGINIA HELD AT THE ROANOKE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION CENTER MEETING DATE: May 13, 1997 AGENDA ITEM: Approval of Health Insurance Contract for School and County Employees COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR'S COMMENTS: SUMMARY OF INFORMATION: The County of Roanoke and the County of Roanoke Schools are currently in the third year of a three year contract with Trigon Blue Cross Blue Shield. Claims experience for the last year for both the County and the County Schools has been extremely high. Based upon this claims experience renewal quotes from Trigon Blue Cross Blue Shield would have been an increase in rates of 30%. However, due to the foresight of our consultants (Slabaugh Morgan White & Associates) last year's renewal included a cap for this year's increase of 8%. We are therefore able to take advantage of this cap and project our renewal rate at an 8% increase. The County of Roanoke is currently participating with the other valley jurisdictions in receiving bids for a possible joint health insurance program to begin January 1, 1998. These bids will be received by May 17, 1997 and will be evaluated by our insurance consultant over the next few months. The Joint Health Insurance Committee will continue to work together on an implementation plan. In light of the fact that the County will be considering changing policies within six months we are not recommending any change in the benefits provided by the health insurance package. We are recommending that a portion of this 8% increase be passed along to the County and County School employees. There has not been an increase passed on to the County employees since the 1994-95 fiscal year. At the same time we will use this opportunity to more evenly distribute the County benefits among the three tiers that are currently offered. This change will move us more in line with the other valley jurisdictions in the method of allocating our resources among the three tiers. The current and renewal rates for the health care coverage are outlined in Appendix A. We are proposing that the County employees would pay 15% of the single comprehensive plan premium, 40% of the single plus dependent comprehensive plan premium or 40% of the family comprehensive plan premium. The impact of this change will result in a slight decrease for those employees with single coverage and an increase in premium for those employees with single plus dependent or family coverage. As in prior years the County employees will continue to receive the entire cost savings benefit of choosing point of service plan over the comprehensive plan. This strategy has been extremely successful and is reflected in the fact that 40% of County and 47% of School participants are choosing the point of service plan. This is an increase of 20% over the enrollment for 1996. M:\FINANCE\COMMON\BOARD\5-13-97.WPD May 9, 1997 A summary of the County and the County Schools insurance reserves are shown on Appendix B and Appendix C respectively. The large balances that had at one time accumulated in these reserves have been used for the past few years to keep employee premiums from increasing and are estimated to be depleted by June 30, 1998. These reserves include the deposit of Trigon Blue Cross Blue Shield stock (valued at $138,000) that was received as a result of the de-mutualization effective in January 1997. We are prohibited from selling this stock prior to August of 1997 after which we will review our options to hold some of the stock or liquidate it all. FISCAL IMPACT: As show on Appendix B the County budget for FY 1997-98 includes $1,521,668 for health insurance expenses. In addition, $273,565 will be allocated from the reserves to keep employee increases to a minimum.. As shown on Appendix C the School budget includes $2,692,005. In addition to this amount we estimate using $598,358 of the reserve fund. These projections are based on continuing with the 1997-98 Trigon Blue Cross Blue Shield Blue Cross Blue Shield renewal for an entire year. If the joint health insurance bid proves viable an adjustment can be made to the County and School budgets at that time. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approving the attached renewal rates with Trigon Blue Cross Blue Shield. Information packets will be distributed to the employees immediately in order to complete enrollment before the June payroll. After the joint health insurance bids have been evaluated this summer, an implementation plan will be developed for County participation if the bids are beneficial to the County.

Hardy Director of Budget and Data Management Roanoke County Schools 5937 Cove Road Roanoke, Virginia 24019 Slabaugh Morgan White & Associates have completed our independent evaluation of the proposed renewal actions to become effective July 1, 1997 on the County of Roanoke and Roanoke County Schools' medical and dental plans. The purpose of this letter is to summarize our analysis and to provide recommendations for the 1997-98 contract year. Similar to previous years, our review considered each element of the medical and dental plans that impact the costs; projected claims costs, retention expenses, reinsurance fees, participation in the two medical plan options as well as the plan design of each program. The highlights of our review are as follows: Medical Plan The County and Schools offer employees the choice of two plan options; Comprehensive and Point -of -Service (POS). The POS plan offers a higher level of benefits when medical services are managed by a primary care physician. The medical plans are administered by Trigon BlueCross BlueShield under a shared -risk or minimum premium funding arrangement. Enrollment in the medical plans increased during the past year by 3.8% to 2,171 employees.. Presently over 45°/a of employees and their dependents, are enrolled in the POS plart.

Hyatt Dr. Jerry D. Hardy April 28, 1997 Page two SMW examined the key components which make-up the overall costs of the medical plan, including retention expenses, reinsurance charges and claims expenses. Overall Trigon projects a 30.2% rate increase is necessary to fund the medical plan for the upcoming contract year. Our analysis indicates a 17.1 % increase is more appropriate. However, last year in conjunction with the renewal evaluation, we negotiated a rate increase cap on the 1997-98 projections at 8%. Trigon is honoring this limit, which generates a potential savings to the County and Schools of $1,475,115. We recommend accepting the 8% increase. We have discussed with Trigon representatives the performance guarantees on the service of the plan. These service standards will continue for the 1997-98 contract year and Trigon will place 10% of the administrative fee at risk for their ability to meet these criteria. The current plan design was also reviewed to ensure appropriate coverage is provided. Several enhancements were implemented last year and in view of the joint health care purchasing project no further modifications are advised. Dental Plan The indemnity dental plan administered by Delta Dental Plan of Virginia was also evaluated. SMW concurs with the renewal rate projections calculated by Delta which are: Active Employees: 7.4% decrease Retired Employees. 27.5% increase Lat/roanck9e/hyhd0428.doc Ms. Diane 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: May 13, 1997 AGENDA ITEM: Approval of Dental Insurance Contracts for School and County Employees COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR'S COMMENTS: BACKGROUND: The County provides dental insurance for School and County employees. Effective July 1, 1994 the County allowed the School and the County retirees to participate in the program with the understanding that they would pay the entire amount of their premium and that their experience would not cost the County any additional money. Last year during the renewal process the retirees premium was segregated and increased to reflect the higher claims experience of this group. SUMMARY OF INFORMATION: The claims experience for the retirees continues to be higher than the active employees. The current year renewal quote reflects a 27.5 % increase for retirees and a 7.4% decrease for the active employees. A comparison of the rates for this year and next is shown in Appendix A. Dental insurance is another component that is currently being bid by the joint health insurance committee. This renewal is reflected for the 1997-98 fiscal year however, if a more competitive bid is received in the joint health insurance renewal the County will have the option to change at that time to the more favorable plan. FISCAL IMPACT: The County provides the funds for County and School employees for dental insurance coverage. The decrease in the rates for the active employee will result in a savings of $30,000 from the amount that is included in the proposed 1997-98 budget. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approving the attached renewal rates with Delta Dental of Virginia and adjusting the proposed 1997-98 budget to reduce dental insurance cost by $30,000. Since Roanoke County funds the entire benefit cost for County and School employees and as a direct result of good employee claims experience this year, Staff recommends appropriating this savings to the Employee Suggestion Program.

This should put us on schedule with the program as we discussed earlier in the year and which is attached for your information. SIRYZ4ARY OF INFORMATION: The 1996-97 Debt Fund budget contains several line items that will not need to be expended during the current fiscal year as listed below: 1 A line item was included for temporary borrowing at the time we were anticipating a potential bond issue for the new South County High School. $365,000 2 The Schools were asked to set aside an amount of money for future debt 230,000 payments. 3 The debt budget included interest expense on the Cave Spring Junior High Literary Loan. Due to the timing of this loan the interest payment will not be due until the 1997-98 fiscal year. 75,000 Total $670,000 The intent of all of the above line items was to help to defer the cost of future debt as a result of new School capital construction. Since these items will not be needed in the 1996-97 budget staff recommends reserving $670,000 resulting from these savings for future School capital needs. It is anticipated that these funds would be used to help offset debt requirements that will be incurred as a result of the School capital needs assessment. The attached worksheet outlines the plan that was discussed at a prior worksession,. as a possible plan to fund future School capital debt. This $670,000 one-time savings is shown in the first column. The $1,000,000 new Economic Development and the $1,000,000 School / County savings are included in the 1997 -98 -budget. m:\finance\common\board\ 1-28-97.wpd May 9, 1997 FISCAL IMPACT: The County will designate $670,000 of savings from the Debt Fund for the 1996-97 fiscal year to a reserve for future School capital needs. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends establishing the reserve for future School capital needs and designating $670,000 of the savings from the 1996-97 fiscal year debt budget into this reserve.

ITEM NO. AT A REGULAR MEETING OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF ROANOKE COUNTY, VIRGINIA, HELD AT THE ROANOKE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION CENTER MEETING DATE: May 13, 1997 AGENDA ITEM: Ottaway claim This notice of claim is filed on behalf of Adrian R. Ottaway and Mary H. Ottaway in the amount of $275,000 for the alleged improper and negligent building inspection of 7730 Old Mill Forest Drive. Mr. and Mrs. Ottaway contracted with Reginald Knighton to construct a home for them. Litigation is currently pending between these parties. The Ottaways believe that the County is partially responsible for their problems, based upon their belief that the County building inspectors did not properly inspect during construction. Section 15.1-554 provides that no action shall be maintained against a county upon any claim or demand until that claim or demand is first presented to the board of supervisors for allowance. It appears that the Ottaways are pursuing this remedy. Attached you will find copies of the claim letter dated April 16, 1997, from Jeffrey A. Fleischhauer, Esq., attorney for the Ottaways, and various documents in support of this claim. These documents describe the basis for this claim. The house passed all standard inspections before a certificate of occupancy was issued on August 12, 1993. Many reinspections were made due to failure to meet code, and items were brought up to code standards before final approval. County staff had made over 30 site visits after the certificate of occupancy was issued, in an attempt to resolve these problems (including items not subject to the building code). It is unfortunate that the Ottaways have experienced these difficulties with the construction of their home; however, their relief should be from the contractor they selected to construct this house, not the County taxpayers. Building inspections under the Uniform Statewide Building Code are n_Qt warranties or 1 guaranties against all perils, problems or disappointments with contractors. Counsel for the Ottaways claims that this "improper and negligent inspection" amounts to a taking of private property without just compensation, sometimes described as an inverse condemnation. This assertion is based upon a Virginia Supreme Court case involving the failure of a county to maintain a public drainage easement, and the Court viewed this as an "implied contract." Fatal to counsel's assertion is the complete absence of any public use of this property, nor any contractual agreement, express or implied, between the Ottaways and the County. Indeed a long line of case decisions from Virginia and most of the other states, reject the notion that a private contract or private right of action exists for "negligent inspection." If the Board accepts this claim, then the amount of damages claimed is $275,000. The Board may accept this claim and pay the sum of $275,000. In the alternative the Board can deny this claim, and let the Ottaways proceed to prove their claim through judicial action. It is recommended that the Board deny this claim.

Ottaway dated April 16, 1997, has been referred to my office by Mr. Burkart, the Commonwealth's Attorney. You stated in this letter that "Documents in support of this claim are attached to this notice and are incorporated herein and made a part hereof." No documents were submitted with the claim. Since I will be preparing a report to the Board of Supervisors on this matter for Board action, I want to submit to the Board any documents in support of this claim that you determine necessary for proper decision. You stated that the County has taken your client's property "for public uses without just compensation." Please describe the public use which the County is making of your client's property. You stated that this claim is a "contract action, not a tort action." Please provide me with a copy of this contract.

County Attorney Roanoke County P.O. Box 29800 Roanoke, VA 24018-2089 Re: Ottaway Claim Dear Mr. Mahoney: 26M MAILING ADDRESS: P.O. BOX 75 ROANOKE, VA 24002 PHONE: 540-344-4490 FAX: 540-345-8737 This is to acknowledge your letter dated April 23, 1997. I apologize for the omission of the documents which were inadvertently not enclosed with the notice of claim to you. Please review the attached documents. This claim is based upon the improper and negligent inspection of the Ottaway's premises, which improper and negligent inspection has resulted in serve property loss to my clients. The actions taken by Roanoke County in failing to properly inspect the premises amount to a taking of my client's property without just compensation. This is sometimes described as an inverse condemnation. In describing this as a contract action, I was referring to the holding in Jenkins v. County of Shenandoah, 246 Va. 467 (1993), in which the Virginia Supreme Court held that such a taking was an "implied contract" action. The statutory citation for the additional basis under which we are proceeding is Va. Code Sec. 8.01-195.1 et seq. (The Virginia Tort Claim Act), not Sec. 8.01-222 which applies to Cities and Towns. This Act requires a notice to be sent, which in this case was sent by my clients on Sept. 7, 1995 to Roanoke County. Roanoke County was aware of this claim and dispatched Gardner Smith to investigate the claim. I suggest that you have this matter referred to your insurance carrier for error and omissions to determine if coverage exists to pay the Ottaway's claim. Please advise if you require anything further to evaluate this claim. Very truly yours, Jeffrey A. Fleischhauer cc: the Ottaways Enclosure r�i M E M O R A N D U M TO: Paul Mahoney, Don Myers, Elmer Hodge, FROM: The Ombudsman RE: Possible Legal Actions by a County Resident DATE: June 8, 1995 The purpose of this memo is to give you an alert notice to potential legal actions that are ongoing with one of the county citizens. CITIZENS/HOME OWNER: Russ Ottaway & Marti Haynes 7730 Old Mill Forest Drive Penn Forest Magisterial District ACTION PENDING: The Contractor is suing the home owners for ` failure to pay. The owner is counter -suing because of incomplete work and shady work. Based on conversations with the owner, I have determined that they feel that the county is partially responsible for their problems. NATURE OF COMPLAINT: This couple built a house which they now say has a long list of defects. They feel these problems are both the contractors' fault and a failure on the part of county inspectors to properly inspect during construction. The citizen feels that the county staff should have helped her with the following: 1. Enforce the BOCA code on vapor retarder installation. 2. Respond to their (the owner) request for follow-up on drainage pipe and the effluent pump system and septic tank smell problems. 3. Insure that the septic system met state codes COUNTY STAFF COMMENTS: The staff worked with the residents as far as they felt that they could. The inspectors received several calls and letters on this project. One inspector reported arranging at least two meetings with the owner and the plumbing contractor, and the owner did not show up. Staff has made more than 30 trips to the residence. There were several visits to the property after certificate of occupancy was issued, and suggestions were made to try to alleviate problems even when the owner were told that these issues were not Code issues. The house passed all standard inspections before a Certificate of Occupancy was issued in August 12, 1993. EXHIBIT A ALL•STATE'INTERNATIONAL The County staff conducted the following standard inspections related to the issuing of a -certificate of occupancy. BUILDING PERMIT: footing, framing, and final ELECTRICAL: rough in, final, current, and cut in electrical temp (final and cut in) MECHANICAL: rough in, final PLUMBING: ground, rough in, and final CERTIFICATE OF OCCUPANCY issued There were many reinspections due to failure to meet code, however, all reinspections were brought to code standards before final approval. OMBUDSMAN COMMENTS: I have visited the house and toured the entire building with the owners. Although there was no odor at the time of my visit that I could determine, I did see the following: 1. Residue of glue from carpet removed that had not hardened. 2. Indications of dampness in on the ground level in several rooms. 3. A/C units sitting on concert slabs in a area where the ground was washing away. 4. Incomplete landscaping work. S. Several modifications that had been made to measure and reduce moisture levels. I have spoken with Ms Haynes daily since my first meeting with her on May 25, 1995. She has provided me updates of the smell and moisture report. Due to the heat, rain, and humidity in the last few days, the air conditioner had to be turned on to try to reduce the dampness. As of the date of this memo, she says the smell is so bad that she can not go into the house to get her clothing out. She wanted the health department to come out and inspect; however, that department told her that they did not do that kind of inspections. I informed her that I knew of no government agency that would provide that type of service for her. She is having medical problems which she associated with allergies which have come back since her exposure to the gases and odors in her house. cf : Gary Robertson Arnold Covey Elaine Gall Terry Harrington OWNER'S LIST OF PROJECT PROBLEMS OMBUDSMAN'S SUMMARY 7730 Old Mill Forest Drive Below is a list of problems the owner claims can be identified with this single family residence (more detailed explanation and owners' comments on each issue is attached): 1. COST OF CONSTRUCTION - Cost near 100% over contract cost plus lot value at closing. 2. WELL WATER - Acid found in water which is damaging pipes 3. HARMFUL OFFENSIVE GASES - Several gases have been detected which make living in the house unsafe. 4. DAMPNESS IN THE BASEMENT - The concrete floor was not properly prepared, so damage is occurring in the basement because of dampness. The moisture has been measured at more then 70%. 5. PLUMBING AND SEWAGE LEAKING UNDER HOUSE - This situation may be contributing to the high moisture levels. 6. LANDSCAPING WORK WAS OVER CHARGED, NEVER DONE CORRECTLY, AND NEVER COMPLETED - Because of this problem, erosion and related damages are occurring to the property. 7. SEPTIC GASES AND SEPTIC TANK - The septic system has note been installed property. Gases and sewer odors can be smelled at and near the tank. S. IMPROPER GRADING AND SITE PREPARATION FOR AIR CONDITIONER - The property has serious erosion problems. In fact, the air conditioners are mounted where the ground is washing away. 9. BASEMENT SLAB - The concert floor on ground level is cracking so badly that it appears it will have to be removed and redone. This problem is further compounded by the excess moisture 10. DISAPPEARANCE OF MATERIALS - The work site saw the disappearance of bricks, lighting fixtures, faucets, tile, wood, several light fixtures and much more.

Ottaway Roanoke County Circuit Case Dear Chip: 9� > 'qs� 1 MAILING ADDRESS: P.O. BOX 75 ROANOKE. VA 24002 PHONE: 540-344-4490 FAX: 540-345-8737 I have been requested by my clients A. Russell Ottaway and Marti Haynes (Ottaway) to write to you concerning the above referenced case. Mr. Knighton commenced an action against Mr. and Mrs. Ottaway claiming he was entitled to a profit based upon a cost plus contract to construct their home in Roanoke County. The Contract was for a $225,000.00 home, and required him to warrant and manage the project. The Ottaways are now aware of the mismanagement of the construction, which has resulted in over $100,000.00 of cost overruns, with unaccounted for losses of materials, and unexplained overcharges as well as a completely faulty concrete slab and footers, for which no said tamping was apparently done, no moisture barrier installed, and a total lack of adherence to the building code. The County Building inspector has not been able to explain the serious lapses with respect to the faulty construction. Sewer gas now leaks from the foundation into the house, water leaks and other problems also abound. Practically every day brings a new, previously undiscovered problem for the Ottaways. It now appears that their house may be worthless, and their mortgage lender, who also supposedly inspected the house prior to approving fimher construction payments has declined any responsibility. In addition, Mr. Knighton apparently lacked sufficient knowledge to do this project properly, in direct contradiction of his representations to my client. After deposing Mr. Ottaway, my clients and I were shocked to learn of his previous conviction for bribery/or kickbacks related to a different construction project. EXHIBIT .t; ALL -STATE' INTERNATIONAL September 1, 1995 Del. Clifton A. Woodrum Page 2 Please undertake an aggressive investigation of this matter on behalf of my clients including why the county inspection process so miserably failed them.

Attached you will note our correspondence to Mr. Knighton regarding the violations that we can legally document for your home. Three items listed in your letter cannot be listed as violations by our office. They are listed below with the reason why they cannot be noted as violations following the individual items. I. I have contacted the Department of Housing and Community Development regarding the requirement for foundation drainage in the front of the house. it is their interpretation that this is not a violation of the CABO I and 11 Family Dwelling Code because the floor slab is poured above grade. Foundation drainage is not normally required for a slab on grade situation. 2. We were unable to observe the weep hole violation since weep holes have been installed at this time -and cannot cite Mr. -Knighton with this violation. We can verify that weep holes are required by Section R-503.4 and Figure R-503.4 of the 1989 edition of the CABO i and 11 Family Dwelling Code. You may wish to provide dodumentation showing that the weep holes were installed by you or someone other than Knighton Construction Service for use in subsequent legal action. P.O.

COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR'S COMMENTS: BACKGROUND: Cox Communications Roanoke, Inc. has announced increases in their rates for cable customers for both basic cable service and for the C.P.S. tier of cable services effective March 1, 1997. A cable customer has 90 days from the effective date of an increase in cable rates to file a complaint regarding C.P.S. rates with the franchising authority. The franchising authority must receive such complaints from at least two customers before it may file a request with the F.C.C. to review an increase in C.P.S. rates. The County has recently received an opinion from its outside legal counsel for cable television issues that the simultaneous rate increase for the basic cable service tier by this cable operator was within the range permitted by F.C.C. regulations. SUMMARY OF INFORMATION: Roanoke County has received complaints from twelve (12) citizens requesting a review of the announced intentions of Cox Communications Roanoke, Inc. to increase the rates for its C.P.S. effective March 1, 1997. Roanoke County, as the franchising authority, must now make an initial determination that not more than 90 days have elapsed from the date the rate increase went into effect until the subscriber complaints were received and that such rate increase pertains to the C.P.S. tier. Both of these criteria appear to be satisfied. If Roanoke County intends to submit a complaint to the F.C.C., it must first send a written notice, including a draft FCC Form 329, to Cox Communications Roanoke, Inc. to inform them that a complaint is pending. The cable operator then must be permitted at least 30 days to file a response with the County. Roanoke County has 180 days from the effective date of the rate increase in question to file the FCC Form 329, along with any response from the cable operator, with the F.C.C. With the authorization of the Board of Supervisors, the County Attorney's office will prepare a draft Form 329, and forward it by certified mail to Cox Communications Roanoke, Inc. for their response within 45 days. Once this response is received, or the 45 days has elapsed, this matter will be placed on the Board's agenda for final action upon whether to file the Form 329, and any response from the cable operator, with the F.C.C. FISCAL IMPACT: None. ALTERNATIVES: Authorize the County Attorney to draft a Form 329, and to send to Cox Communications Roanoke Inc., by certified mail, requesting a response within 45 days. 2. Decline to file a rate complaint on the C.P.S. tier, Form 329, with the F.C.C. and rely upon the review of rates previously conducted on behalf of the County of basic cable service rates by outside legal counsel.

ITEM NUMBER AT A REGULAR MEETING OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF ROANOKE COUNTY, VIRGINIA HELD AT THE ROANOKE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION CENTER MEETING DATE: May 13, 1997 AGENDA ITEM: Request to Appropriate Monies for Public Assistance for the Department of Social Services COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR'S COMMENTS: BACKGROUND: Throughout the year, the Department of Social Services receives additional appropriations for public assistance and service delivery. These funds are required to provide continuing services and to avoid any interruption of service to the customer. The State has made available $7,000 additional funding for Aid for Families with Dependent Children - Foster Care. The Department of Social Services cannot access these state funds until the County has appropriated the same. The Board of Supervisors is requested to appropriate $7,000 to the Social Services expenditure budget for Public Assistance and to appropriate the related revenues from the State. The State has also appropriated additional funds in other programs. We are not requesting those funds at this time because we do not anticipate we will require the total amount the State has appropriated. We will review the budget after the third quarter and may need to request additional appropriations in the FY 96-97 County budget for increased services. FISCAL IMPACT: None. The total amount for the additional funding is 100% reimbursable by the State Department of Social Services. K-- a STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends appropriation of $7,000 to the Social Services Budget for Aid to Families with Dependent Children - Foster Care. R spectf lly s b fitted, C Betty A.

SUMMAMOF J.QRMATIQN• During the course of a fiscal year, the Compensation Board reimburses localities for specific expenses relating to the operations of the Constitutional Officers. Reimbursable expenses include salaries, fringe benefits, certain operational costs, and limited capital expenditures. Two additional items have been funded by the Comp Board for the Clerk of Circuit Court that are not included in the original budget appropriation. These items are as follows: 1. At the beginning of the current fiscal year (FY96-97), the Compensation Board approved an additional Deputy Clerk I position. This notification was dated (June 28, 1996) and received after the second reading of the Appropriation Ordinance; therefore, was not included in the FY96-97 adopted budget. The state reimbursable cost of this position is $17,172. This additional position will also be added to the classification plan in the Clerk of Circuit Court's office. 2. Near the conclusion of some fiscal years Compensation Board budgets are not depleted and, upon request of the Constitutional Officer, may be reallocated to cover previously unbudgeted items. The Clerk of the Circuit Court has requested this reallocation of funds from the Compensation Board for the purchase of a replacement fax machine. The Comp Board has approved this request (copy of approval attached) and the reimbursable cost is $1,070. FISCAL I.ACT: No fiscal impact. Approval of this request will increase revenue and expenditure budgets by equal amounts as follows: Additional Approved Position -Personnel $17,172 Additional Office Equipment -Operating 1,070 Total $18,242 WboardW-23-96.ccc STAERECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends an appropriation adjustment to increase revenues from the state for Compensation Board reimbursement by $18,242 and to increase the Clerk of Circuit Court's budget by $18,242.
