COUNTY, VIRGINIA, HELD AT THE ROANOKE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION
CENTER ON TUESDAY, .JUNE 10, 1997
RESOLUTION 061097-1 ADOPTING A LEGISLATIVE PROGRAM FOR
THE 1998 SESSION OF THE VIRGINIA GENERAL ASSEMBLY, AND
PETITIONING THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY TO FAVORABLY CONSIDER
THE TOPICS AND ISSUES ADDRESSED HEREIN
WHEREAS, the Board of Supervisors of Roanoke County, Virginia, has identified
major legislative issues of state-wide concern to be considered by the 1998 session of the
Virginia General Assembly; and
WHEREAS, the Board hereby recommends these issues to its state-wide
organization, the Virginia Association of Counties, for consideration in the adoption of its
legislative program; and
WHEREAS, the Board adopts this resolution as its Legislative Program for the
Virginia Association of Counties for the 1998 session of the Virginia General Assembly.
NOW, THEREFORE, Be It Resolved by the Board of Supervisors of Roanoke
County, Virginia, that the following legislative initiatives are submitted to the Virginia
Association of Counties for its legislative program for the 1998 session of the Virginia
General Assembly for its favorable consideration and adoption.
A. Education. Realizing that public education is the foundation of American
democracy and the cornerstone of our future economic well being, the County urges the
General Assembly to consider favorably the following actions.
1) The Constitution of the Commonwealth of Virginia should be amended
1
to provide that elected school boards may be granted the authority and responsibility for
taxation to support public education.
2) The General Assembly should enhance funding for public education,
including increasing the funds available to the Literary Fund for local school capital
construction or renovation projects. The General Assembly should increase funding for
capital construction and renovation projects based upon the locality's local effort in support
of these capital projects.
for school.
3) Local school divisions should be authorized to establish opening dates
4) Disparity funding should be based not only upon the number of
students eligible for free or reduced fee lunches, but also upon the locality's local tax effort
in support of education. Disparity funding should be based upon the composite index
(which measures a locality's relative fiscal ability to provide its share of the cost of a local
school system that meets the standards of quality) and the locality's local effort in support
of that school system.
B. Roanoke County supports legislation amending the heart/lung/cancer
presumption statute for Workers' Compensation to restore balance to the rebuttal process.
Compensability shall be determined by establishing whether work or non -work related risk
factors (life-style choices such as smoking, poor nutritional habits, Lack of exercise, or
obesity, or non -work related stress and familial history) are more likely the primary cause
of the medical condition. In addition, Roanoke County opposes any further expansion of
this statute.
E
C. Roanoke County supports legislation relieving local governments of the
responsibility of meeting recycling rates on all wastes collected by private haulers and
diverted from waste disposal facilities identified to receive such wastes as set out in the
local solid waste management plan. This legislation should also require that private
haulers diverting such wastes be held accountable and responsible to meeting the same
recycling rates and requirements as the local governments.
Section 10. 1 -1411 imposes a 25% recycling mandate on local governments. The
General Assembly has severely limited the ability of local governments to regulate the flow
of waste. This proposal would relieve local governments of the responsibility of meeting
this recycling mandate on all wastes collected by private haulers. It would also require that
private haulers be subject to the same recycling mandates as local governments.
D. Roanoke County supports additional new construction and maintenance
funding for the Virginia Department of Transportation for secondary and primary roads.
Additional funding for new construction projects will address critical transportation needs
of all local governments. Additional maintenance funding shall be used for an expanded
program to mow grass and weeds, and inspect and clean drainage pipes and culverts.
E. Roanoke County supports allowing the disposal of land clearing vegetative
debris (including tree stumps) in less expensive facilities in a manner not detrimental to
the environment. This would require groundwater and methane gas monitoring, financial
assurances from the owner/operator, and local governing body certification of compliance
with all local ordinances.
E. - Roanoke County supports legislation amending Section 14.1-46.0:1 to
3
increase the salary supplement for the Chairman of the Board of Supervisors from $1,800
to $2,500 per year.
G. Roanoke County supports continued and increased funding for the
Comprehensive Services Act, the Virginia Community Juvenile Crime Control Act, the
Family Preservation Act, and local police departments (HB 599 funding).
H. Roanoke County supports continued and increased funding for Regional
Competitiveness Act.
I. Roanoke County vigorously opposes any attempt to restrict or eliminate local
sources of taxation., including personal property taxation and business and professional
occupational licensing, unless local governments are guaranteed the opportunity to
replace lost sources of local revenue with comparable, equivalent, independent sources
of revenue to allow localities to fulfill their public service obligations.
J. Roanoke County supports authority to impose an additional one-half percent
('/2%) local option sales tax.
K Roanoke County supports expanding local authority to create transportation
districts, to impose local option motor vehicle fuels taxes, and to expend these tax
proceeds for local transportation improvements.
L. Roanoke County supports legislation appropriating funds and directing the
State Compensation Board to modify staffing standards for local jails and court services
positions for Sheriffs offices.
M. Roanoke County supports amending Chapter 6. 1, "Virginia Tire Tax" of Title
58.1, "Taxation" (a) to increase the tire tax from $.50 to $1.25, and (b) to direct and
4
authorize the Department of Waste Management to utilize the increased Waste Tire Trust
Fund to remediate illegal or abandoned waste tire dumps.
N. Roanoke County supports increasing state aid for public libraries by $1.4
Million each for FY 99 and FY 2000; That the Commonwealth fully fund state aid by FY
2001; and that the Commonwealth shall adopt and fund a statewide technology plan for
public libraries. The objective of such a plan will be to provide public libraries with the
technological support for public, universal access to networked information.
That the Clerk to the Board of Supervisors is directed to send a certified copy of this
resolution to the Virginia Association of Counties.

AT A REGULAR MEETING OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF ROANOKE
COUNTY, VIRGINIA HELD AT THE ROANOKE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION CENTER
MEETING DATE: June 10, 1997
AGENDA ITEM: Request to establish a Task Force to review
problems encountered by disabled, physically
challenged and senior citizens and recommend
solutions
NTY ADMINISTRATOR'S COMMENTS:
BACKGROUND:
At the May 27, 1997 meeting, Supervisor Nickens proposed that the
Board of Supervisors establish a Task Force to review the many
problems encountered by disabled, physically challenged and senior
citizens, and to recommend solutions directed at improving
opportunities for these individuals and creating a better quality
of life in Roanoke County.
UMMARY OF INFORMATIO
The proposed Task Force would be expected to submit a written
report to the Board of Supervisors within a one-year period. Areas
to be studied should include but not be limited to: building
accessibility, employment opportunities, transportation, education,
recreation and housing. The areas should include private and
public sectors within Roanoke County, and any regional services or
programs of which Roanoke County is a recipient or participant.
While the Task Force will stay in existence for a one-year period,
some of the projects and activities they study may be completed in
less time. Several projects that County staff are currently working
on would be ideal programs for the Task Force to become involved
with. They include the Senior Citizens Work Program, suggested by
Supervisor Eddy, and improvements to CORTRAN transportation.
The activities of the Task Force should include:
1. Hold public meetings to obtain citizen input, possibly in
conjunction with PTA's civic groups and senior citizen
organizations.
1
E-'-�'
2. Perform on-site visits of buildings, programs, and services.
3. Organize sub -committees to undertake the various activities of
the Task Force.
4. Report periodically on progress and activities to the Board of
Supervisors.
MEMBERSHIP:
Membership on the Task Force could consist of the following:
1. Two appointments from each magisterial district in Roanoke
County
2. At -large representatives from Roanoke County who could be
business leaders and/or employers or active in the community.
3. Representatives of agencies dedicated to providing services to
the disabled, physically challenged and senior citizens.
4. Retired individuals and persons with physical limitations
There should be a residency requirement for the appointments from
the magisterial districts and business/community leaders, but
Roanoke County residency should not be a requirement for #3 and #4
above because many of the programs are regional in nature.
FISCAL IMPACT
There may be minimal fiscal impact in providing administrative
support such as mailings, copy costs, etc for the Task Force, but
it should not be necessary to appropriate any additional funds.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends:
(1) Approval of Supervisor NickensI proposal to establish a Task
Force to study the problems encountered by the disabled, physically
challenged and senior citizens of Roanoke County.
(2) That the Board members recommend activities and programs to be
reviewed by the Task Force.
