Review Roanoke County debt (Rebecca Owens, Director of Finance) b. Update on fiscal year 2011 -2012 budget (Brent Robertson, Director of Management and Budget) C. Update on CSA Funding issues in the General Assembly (Daniel O'Donnell, Assistant County Administrator) d. Review of the preliminary Roanoke County School appropriation (Diane D. Hyatt, Assistant County Administrator) Diane D. Hyatt Assistant County Administrator B. Clayton Goodman 111 County Administrator COUNTY ADMINIS'TRATOR'S COMMENTS: SUMMARY OF INFORMATION a. Debt Work session (Rebecca Owens, Director of Finance) The Board of Supervisors formalized the County of Roanoke's debt management program by adopting a debt policy in December 2004. This policy established parameters for issuing debt and managing outstanding debt. It also provided guidance to the administration regarding the timing and purposes for which debt may be issued, types and amount of permissible debt, and the method of sale that may be used. Adherence to a Page 1 of 3 debt policy helps to ensure that a government maintains a sound position and that credit quality is protected. The CoN .,inty does not have any Constitutional or statutory debt limits. The County does abide by the following self- imposed debt targets; • Net debt as a percentage of assessed value will not exceed three percent (3 %). This is calculated by taking the total outstanding debt and dividing by total assessed value of property. At June 30, 2010, the County's ratio was two point three three percent (2.33 %) • Net Debt per capita will not exceed a ratio of $2,500. This is calculated by taking the total outstanding debt and dividing by total population. At June 30,2010, the net debt per capita was $2,312 • General obligation debt service as a percentage of general governmental expenditures will not exceed ten percent (10 %). This is calculated by taking total debt divided by total expenditures of governmental funds, school expenditures, and transfers to capital projects and proprietary funds. At June 30, 2010, the County's ratio was seven point seven nine percent (7.79 %) The County is currently rated Aa 1, AA, and AA+ by Moody's Investor Service, Standard & Poor's and Fitch Ratings respectively. The ratings are high quality and are a reflection of the County's prudent financial policies, healthy reserve levels, financial conditions, economic development initiatives and management practices. The County has done everything that is can do to improve our bond rating. It is our commercial to residential ratio that keeps us from achieving the best quality rating of AAA. This work session will provide detailed information about the debt policy, debt limits, bond ratings, reserve balances, current debt and projected debt information for future planning. b. Update on the fiscal 2011 -12 budget (Brent Robertson, Director of Management and Budget) Mr. Robertson will update the Board on the current status of items in the General Assembly. Since this is changing daily, information will be distributed at the work session. C. Update on CSA Funding issues in the General Assembly (Dan O'Donnell, Assistant County Administrator) Mr. O'Donnell will update the board on potentially costly issues that are being considered in the General Assembly. These actions will transfer more expenses from the State to the local CSA Boards, and therefore the local governments. d. Review of the preliminary Roanoke County School allocation (Diane Hyatt, Assistant County Administrator) Page 2 of 3 In preparation for the joint meeting with the school board, scheduled for March 1, 2011, Ms. Hyatt will review the preliminary worksheet showing the allocation of money to the schools for the 2011-2012 fiscal year.

This would directly shift an estimated $21.6 million to local governments. In addition to the dollar shift, the caseload increase would mean the need to double the size of the CPf1 T structure, add staff and find more volunteers for Family Assessment and Planning tam FAPT). The increase in caseload is more onerous than the dollar shift as we do not have the infrastructure in place to manage additional cases. This would also set a precedent where local governments would now be paying for a portion of the State's Medicaid share (50% federal 5 0% state) as local governments pay for about seventeen percent ( 17%) in the costs for services to this population. There has never been local share in the state's fifty percent % requirement in Virginia. VML Talking points on this issue: -the House budget items would more than double the CSA caseload -Local governments cannot afford to take on $21.6 million in new service costs -Local Family Assessment and Planning Teams FAPT are not structured or intended to handle the treatment decisions but would be responsible for those decisions in the future - There is no funding to increase the number of staff who serve on FAPTS and are already overloaded. - volunteer parent reps are required by code to serve o n FAPTs and it is already difficult to find enough volunteers. This change would make FAPTS much more time consuming and it would be doubtful if we could find enough volunteers. -Additional local CSA staff would be needed. No local funds are available for this mandate f new staff.

N -1 AT A REGULAR MEETING OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF ROANOKE COUNTY, VIRGINIA HELD AT THE ROANOKE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION CENTER MEETING DATE: February 22, 2011 AGENDA ITEM: Review Volunteer Incentive Program (VIP) requirements SUBMITTED BY: Woody Henderson Volunteer Chief and Chairman of VIP Board of Trustees APPROVED BY: B. Clayton Goodman III County Administrator COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR'S COMMENTS: SUMMARY OF INFORMATION: The VIP program was implemented in 2006 as a way to incentivize volunteers for meeting minimum training requirements, as indicated in county policy. The rules and regulations of the program were created by the VIP Board (made up of three volunteer firefighters, three volunteer Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) and two county finance representatives) and approved by the Board of Supervisors. One of the rules does require volunteer firefighters to become minimum Firefighter 1 certified with 18 months, while volunteer EMS members are similarly required to become minimum certified at the EMT /Basic level within 18 months of acceptance. This rule mirrors the County policy and was put into place to reward volunteers for meeting the first step in training and certification. The VIP Board has worked diligently to adhere to the rules and regulations of the VIP program in order to ensure it rewards those who meet the minimum requirements as set forth in fire and rescue policy. The VIP board is regularly approached by volunteers who seek to have an exception made for them, however they feel strongly that the rules and regulations of the program are reasonable and fair for all fire and rescue volunteers. In September of 2010, the Roanoke County Board of Supervisors was addressed by Volunteer Chief Emerson Schoonover requesting an exception be made for volunteer firefighter Barry Yates who had not met the rules and regulations of the Volunteer Incentive Program (VIP) — specifically, he was not minimum Firefighter 1 certified. Mr. Yates joined the Masons Cove Volunteer Fire Company in 1985 and became Firefighter 1 certified. This certification was valid for five years, at that time, expiring in 1991. Additionally, Mr. Yates Page 1 of 2 joined the Masons Cove Volunteer Rescue Squad n 1989 and continues to maintain an active Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) -Basic certification. He is fully vested in the Length of Service Awards Program and is due to receive the maximum payout of $240 a month at age 55. Previously, Mr. Yates has received payouts with the VIP program under the Masons Cove Rescue Squad as an EMT /B. While Mr. Yates holds numerous certifications and has completed multiple hours of training, he has not completed the Firefighter 1 program. Roanoke County has offered nine annual fire academies since 2001 and there have been three fire academies offered in Montgomery County since 2007. Roanoke County's policy requires all volunteer fire members to become Firefighter 1 certified within 18 months of acceptance to follow the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) guidelines. This policy was created in 1985 by the Volunteer Fire Chiefs Board so that the citizens of the County would have skilled and trained personnel responding to fire calls, while limiting the liability for the volunteer fire companies and the County. FISCAL IMPACT: Currently, the VIP program has budgeted $150,009 to be divided among the VIP eligible volunteers each year. Since the program's inception, approximately 259 eligible volunteers have submitted point records each year. If an exception were to be made for non- certified volunteers, that would open the door for another approximate 75 non- certified volunteers to seek payment ultimately reducing the amount paid out per person. ALTERNATIVES: 1. Make no changes to the VIP program, continue to allow the VIP Board of Trustees the latitude to approve exceptions and not approve payment to Mr. Yates until he meets requirements of the VIP program. 2. Change the VIP program to not require the minimum Firefighter 1 certification and minimum EMT /Basic certification which would effectively reduce quality of service and standard of care for the citizens of Roanoke County. 3. Make an exception and approve Mr. Yates be paid $500 for the 2010 VIP payment. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: While the VIP Board of Trustees values Mr. Yates' contributions and dedicated years of service, the VIP Board has voted to recommend alternative number 1- Make no changes to the VIP program, continue to allow the VIP Board of Trustees the latitude to approve exceptions and not approve payment to Mr. Yates until he meets requirements of the VIP program.

During the first reading, the Board raised several issues which required additional information from staff. This information is listed below with staff's responses /actions: Blue Ride Parkway Viewshed — staff has provided the Board with maps that show the location of these viewsheds that were incorporated into the County's Comprehensive Plan in 1998 with some general information about these viewshed areas. Staff also forwarded an email to the Board from Gary Johnson, Chief of the Resource Planning and Professional Services Division - Blue Ridge Parkway, which explains the methodology for this mapping along with a recommendation regarding the draft Small Wind Energy Ordinance. Noise — staff has provided two charts in the Board's packet regarding noise levels showing various noise levels in different settings (home, work, recreational). These charts are from the Center for Hearing and Communication and the American Academy of Audiology. A chart comparing several different Virginia localities' small wind energy regulations is also included in the Board's packet. There were two other items related to noise — vertical axis wind turbines and blade (rotor) length. Staff is still researching decibel levels of vertical axis wind turbines. Blade (rotor) lengths on small wind energy systems range from 1 meter in diameter to 7 meters in diameter. The size of the blade has more to do with generating power than increasing noise levels. Generally, the larger the rotor, the more energy it can capture. A wind turbine manufacturer would help a property owner determine the appropriate blade (rotor) length based on several factors (type of wind turbine, avg. wind speed at the site, height of tower, frequency distribution of wind at your site, etc.). Staff will review this information with the Board at its February 22 meeting.

Fifty -five view areas were identified and mapped jointly by Parkway and County GIS staff. The maps that resulted from that effort were included in the 1998 Comp Plan update. Attached is a matrix that identifies each view area with the results of a scenic quality analysis that was completed around 1997 -98. The purpose for this view area inventory was to identify which landscape areas were visible or not visible from the Parkway. Then both County and Parkway staff could readily identify which projects being proposed by developers or land owners needed to consider the visual impacts of their development on Parkway scenery. (See attached file: Roanoke sqa- chart.pdfl The 2003 set of view area polygons overlayed on aerial maps were prepared by Janet Scheid and I working with County GIS staff. Our purpose initially was to define an overlay district with voluntary design guidelines but that evolved into establishing a management strategy for scenery conservation for the Parkway corridor through the Roanoke Valley. We focused on the foreground areas immediately adjacent to the Parkway boundary and extending out to as far as about 1/4 of a mile. This mapping guided some of our efforts related to the Last Chance Landscape and our working with land owners -- Radford Associates, Rockydale Quarry, Len Boone, and others. All of the view area mapping completed for Roanoke County to date relates to residential and commercial building development. The visual impacts or visibility of telecommunication towers and now wind turbines due to their height renders conventional view shed mapping obsolete because those facilities' heights range from 60 feet plus for residential to 450 feet or more for commercial wind energy development. These kinds of tower facilities usually extend above tree lines and are visible from greater distances and more vantage points than buildings which are hidden behind tree lines. Parkway GIS staff now prepare a visibility map on a per project basis to evaluate visibility of a tower considering its proposed height and site location. This more specific project visual analysis provides more realistic information for both Parkway staff and the developer /land owner to better understand the location of all of the vantage points from which the tower will be visible and the associated visual impacts to key Parkway overlooks and/or roadside vistas. Based upon the visual analysis alternate tower heights and site locations can then be considered or other mitigations such as color of structure are evaluated. The above discussion about view shed mapping leads me into our review and thinking about the Draft Roanoke County Zoning Ordinance Amendments -Small Wind Energy Systems, February 22, 2011 as it relates to the Blue Ridge (2/17/2011,) Board of Supervisors - Re: Blue Ridge Parkway Viewshed Mapping„ � � � � � Page 2 Parkway. Superintendent Philip Francis, Community Planner Dawn Godwin, Landscape A rc hit ect/GIS David Anderson and I reviewed the ordinance amendment language. After our discussion Superintendent Francis asked me to prepare an email to you requesting that a new general standard be inserted immediately after the number 4. Setbacks general standard. The requested new general standard is as follows: (B) General Standards 5. Visibility from the Blue Ridge Parkway: If a proposed small wind energy site is within one mile of the Blue Ridge Parkway the applicant shall inform the National Park Service Blue Ridge Parkway of the proposed wind turbine sitting. Blue Ridge Parkway recommendations shall be given reasonable consideration and documentation of this consideration shall be provided to the County. The Parkway shall be afforded 30 days to respond to the applicant's written intention to erect a wind turbine. No answer to the notification within the 30 days shall be considered as an affirmation of the site as proposed. Parkway viewshed shall be determined by the County using maps and documents prepared for that purpose by the Blue Ridge Parkway Division of Resource Planning and Professional Services. Our rationale for requesting the addition of this general standard and the language as included is four -fold: The addition of this general standard acknowledges that Roanoke County recognizes the contribution that the Blue Ridge Parkway provides the community in terms of quality of life, economic benefit and as a place from which the scenic beauty of the Roanoke Valley can be enjoyed each year by hundreds of thousands of visitors. It says to land owners that as a Parkway neighbor the County wants them to work with Parkway staff to try and minimize the visual changes that construction of a wind energy system may cause when viewed from overlooks and roadside vistas. Further, it sets forth that Parkway staff should be a part of the discussion and that their comments will be given due consideration, but in the context of all of the other considerations, factors and ordinance requirements that come into play as County planning staff, the Planning Commission and the Board of Supervisors consider the project's merits. It provides that preparing the visual resource mapping and documents required to evaluate the proposed project as viewed from the Parkway is the responsibility of the Blue Ridge Parkway, not the land owner, and that the final interpretation of the data rests with Roanoke County in their decision making process. We appreciate the opportunity to review the Draft Ordinance and look forward to discussing our request with you. Gary (Embedded image moved to file: pic11350.jpg) Gary W.

There are two sets of maps that I have come across. One was developed as part of the comprehensive plan update in 1998 and those maps were incorporated into the County's comprehensive plan. The other set was developed in 2993 and was overlayed on aerial maps. Can you provide me with an email responding on how one or both of these sets of maps were developed? This would be helpful to the Board of Supervisors members as they are considering small wind energy systems. Thanks! Philip to .PIM a • PIM an L .
