COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR'S COMMENTS: BACKGROUND: Roanoke County Schools has received funding for 1999 under the Technology Literacy Challenge Subgrant. The grant is to be used for inservice training, hardware and software to stimulate programs focused on fully integrating technology into teaching and learning. Roanoke County received $53,300 for 1999-2000. Since the funding was not anticipated, an appropriation to the Grant Fund of $53,300 is needed. SUMMARY OF INFORMATION: It is proposed that the money be used to provide training to a core group of teachers in strategies for integrating technology into existing curricula. Participants would become leaders within each building to further disseminate information and strategies. The training will take place from November 1999 through May 2000. Funding will be used for consultants, substitutes, stipends for teachers, expenses for teachers to attend professional development activities and laptop computers for loan to teachers. FISCAL IMPACT: None, no matching funds required. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Appropriation of t e $53,,,3YO to the grant fund. r Jane James Elmer C.

AT A REGULAR MEETING OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF ROANOKE COUNTY, VIRGINIA HELD AT THE ROANOKE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION CENTER MEETING DATE: November 23, 1999 AGENDA ITEM: Approval of the Proposal from United Way of Roanoke Valley to Assist in the Budget Distribution to Human Service Agencies COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR'S COMMENTS: 1�� BACKGROUND: During the Budget Session this past spring, it was suggested that we consider using United Way to distribute the budgeted monies to Human Services Agencies. The concept grew from the fact that many of the organizations make similar requests to the Cities of Roanoke and Salem and also to groups such as the United Way and the resulting contributions do not necessarily reflect their financial need, the demand for that service to the community, or reflect the results of their operation on the target population or service need. A work session was held with the Board of Supervisors and staff on October 26 to discuss the proposal from the United Way of the Roanoke Valley (attached). They have been working with the City of Roanoke in a similar manner and they have developed a United Way / City of Roanoke Consolidated Human Services Funding Application. At this time, the City of Roanoke continues to determine the final allocation to be provided to the agency. In the case of the County, the Resource Distribution Cabinet of the United Way would review these applications and recommend the allocation of available monies based on the weighting factors of the scoring process (see page 6 of the proposed draft document). Of the 18 Human Service Agencies funded by the County this year, all had completed the consolidated application forms. Last year, the Board of Supervisors received funding requests from 29 Human Service Agencies totaling $224,564 of which 18 were funded in the amount of $87,410. This does not include the requests from Social Agencies (Blue Ridge Community Services and TAP); the cultural enrichment and tourism agencies; or organizations that receive funds on a dues or per capita basis. By reviewing these requests on a community wide basis, it can be determined if the agencies are addressing the needs of the 1 'A community and also measure the success or impact of their efforts. United Way proposes to absorb the cost for this service for the first year and to determine the administrative fee (if any) required for the future. Another advantage of such a process would be to reduce the number of speakers and requests heard during the budget process by the Board of Supervisors. ALTERNATIVES: 1. Approve the Proposal of the United Way of Roanoke Valley to serve as the clearinghouse for the human service agency requests in the budget process for FY 2000-01. 2. Board of Supervisors continue to hear the requests during the budget public hearing as in the past. FISCAL IMPACT: None for year one of the United Way proposal. RECOMMENDATIONS: Staff recommends authorizing the proposal from the United Way of the Roanoke Valley for the Budget Year 2000-01 upon form approved by the County Attorney. Staff will communicate with the human service agencies that have applied to the County through the budget process in the past concerning the new procedure. Respectfully submitted, Approved b ohn M.

Hyatt, Director, Finance Brent Robertson, Budget Manager 2 United Way of Roanoke Valley Roanoke County Human Service Funding Proposal - DRAFT Background This report outlines the proposal United Way of Roanoke Valley wishes to make to the Roanoke County Board of Supervisors to administer the County's annual funding of local human service organizations. Through its annual volunteer -driven Resource Distribution process, United Way proposes to help the County meet its goal of directing tax dollars toward programs that have the greatest impact on service recipients by administering County human service funds. This proposal details the procedures through which this is accomplished. Summary The United Way proposes to incorporate Roanoke County human service funding requests into the annual Resource Distribution process currently used to review program funding requests from United Way Partner Agencies. A group of approximately seventy (70) volunteers are used throughout the entire process which consists of two(2) phases: 1) an administrative review process which determines whether major financial and administrative deficiencies preclude an agency's bid to receive funding for one or more programs; and 2) a program application review process where applications are reviewed and scored and funding recommendations are made by volunteers based on a standard set of review criteria. Key Features Important features of United Way's Resource Distribution process include: ■ Programs, not agencies are reviewed. Focusing on programs offered by local agencies allows United Way to direct resources to efforts that have clear goals, objectives and measurable outcomes. ■ Program applications are grouped in under United Way's Community Care Portfolios: ➢ Investing in Children & Youth ➢ Strengthening Families ➢ Building Self -Sufficiency ➢ Enhancing Senior Independence ➢ Caring for People in Crisis ➢ Improving Health & Wellness Therefore, programs with a similar focus (i.e. youth development) are reviewed within a common panel by the same group of volunteers. Depending on the nature of the proposed program, applicants for Roanoke County human service funding will be assigned to the appropriate Community Care Portfolio. ■ Organizations that wish to apply for County human service funding will complete the Consolidated Human Services Funding Application. The Consolidated Application is currently used jointly by the United Way and the City of Roanoke and contains questions relevant to both the administrative and program review processes. United Way of Roanoke Valley - Roanoke County Human Service Funding Proposal - DRAFT E-- ■ The process for reviewing County and United Way program applications will be the same, including agency site visits, program panel meetings and program review conferences. County applications will be reviewed along side UnitedWayPartner Agency program applications (which will be one and the same if requesting money from both United Way and the County) using a set of standard criteria. Detailed Description The following description of United Way of Roanoke Valley's program review and funding process will detail how requests for Roanoke County human services funding will be administered by the United Way. This description is presented according to the proposed sequence of events to be followed in administering Roanoke County human services funding requests. A Notice of Funding Opportunitv Roanoke County is expected to announce the availability of human service funding and instruct interested parties to contact the United Way for application materials in a way it deems appropriate, with sufficient notice provided to complete and submit applications. ® Organizations Eligible to Apply Organizations must meet all of the following conditions to be eligible to apply for Roanoke County human service funding: ■ The agency is qualified under Internal Revenue Code Section 501 (c)(3) as tax exempt and is recognized as a public charity under IRS Code 170. ■ The agency is in compliance with the Internal Revenue Service's requirement regarding the filing of IRS Form 990. • The agency provides opportunity to all individuals without regard to race, color, religion, sex, age, national origin, disability, or veteran status in all personnel actions, including retirement, evaluation, employment, promotion, transfer, training, compensation and termination. Agency services are available without discrimination in accordance with all applicable legal and regulatory requirements. ■ The agency provides health or human services or community development services (such as affordable housing). ■ The agency serves residents of Roanoke County. • The agency is registered or has received an exemption from registration from the Virginia Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, Division of Consumer Affairs, Charitable Solicitation Section. ® Completion of the Consolidated Application The Consolidated Application (enclosed) contains detailed instructions for submitting application materials, including accompanying documents (such as the agency's latest audit or annual review). The application is divided into two main parts, each with a separate deadline for submission: administrative information and program information, used for the, administrative and program review processes, respectively. The administrative section focuses on financial and management issues of the agency that houses the program(s) for which funding is sought. The United Way of Roanoke Valley - Roanoke County Human Service Funding Proposal - DRAFT program section of the application contains nineteen (19) questions regarding the need for the program, the program's goals and measurable objectives, what services are offered, how its outcomes are measured and related items. Applicants are also asked to indicate the number of percentage of persons served in various localities, including Roanoke County. Questions contained in the program section of the Consolidated Application correspond to a standard set of review criteria utilized by United Way volunteers to score applications. Administrative Section Deadline: February 4, 2000 Program Section Deadline: March 3, 2000 ® Administrative Review A panel of United Way volunteers with accounting backgrounds review the administrative section of the Consolidated Application and accompanying materials, such as the agency's latest audit to determine whether the agency that houses the program(s) for which funding is requested is in good financial and administrative standing. A simple "pass/fail" determination is made based on compliance with the following standards: 1. The agency demonstrates adequate Board participation and oversight of its operations, including review of financial statements on a quarterly or more frequent basis. 2. The most recent audit for the agency and other financial documents reveal sound financial management of the agency and no outstanding concerns that might compromise the agency's ability to responsibly handle Roanoke County funds to provide services. 3. The agency's operating reserves do not exceed a level equivalent to full operating costs for six (6) months unless there is an acceptable reason given the nature and function of the organization. 4. Personnel management practices reveal use of written job descriptions, regular performance reviews and annual salary increases that do not exceed 5% (or an average industry rate) unless an acceptable reason is provided. 5. The agency's overhead expenses, including fund-raising costs, do not exceed 25% of total agency expenses unless there is an acceptable reason given the nature and function of the organization. If an agency is not in compliance with all five (5) of these standards and is "failed" by the Administrative Review Panel, its program application will still be reviewed and a funding recommendation made, yet the Panel will recommend to Roanoke County that actual funding be withheld until the issue(s) in question is addressed by the agency in an acceptable manner to the Panel and Roanoke County representatives. ® Program Review Following the Administrative Review, an agency's program application(s) is reviewed by panels of United Way volunteers organized under United Way Community Care Portfolios. An agency can apply to receive funding for more than one program, yet a separate application has to be completed for each program. The full sequence of events in the Program Review process is described below: United Way of Roanoke Valley - Roanoke County Human Service Funding Proposal - DRAFT L-- C;A" A. Recruitment and Organization of Program Review Panels United Way relies on a large number of volunteers to review program applications and make funding recommendations on an annual basis, Volunteers are recruited from a variety of sources, including local companies that run United Way campaigns, volunteers from other functional areas of United Way, health and human service professionals (with no direct tie to United Way Partner Agencies), community activists, graduates of United Way's Minority Leadership Enhancement Program and other United Way supporters. Volunteers' representation is diverse according to race, age, gender and residence. Volunteers are assigned to panels according to their interest, expertise or based on the need to rotate to other program areas after consecutive years of service on a panel. A total of approximately twelve (12) panels are anticipated for year 2000 program reviews, with five or six volunteers on each panel. A chairperson is recruited for each panel to facilitate panel meetings and ensure that panel members follow review guidelines to complete their review and make funding recommendations. Each panel is assigned a United Way staff person to help answer questions and facilitate panel meetings, including agency site visits and program review conferences. However, United Way staff are prohibited from scoring program applications or making funding recommendations. B. Assignment of Program Applications to Community Care Portfolios & Panels A determination is made by United Way staff and volunteers to assign program applications to one of six Portfolios, depending on the services provided and population targeted by the program. Generally, four to eight applications are reviewed within each panel. By assigning applications to common panels, volunteers review similar programs (i.e. homeless assistance, job training) side-by-side. C. Orientation and Preparation of Volunteers All United Way volunteers are required to attend an orientation session that provides an overview of the United Way and explains how program applications are reviewed and the steps for each panel to take, including the scoring of each application based on a standard set of criteria. United Way staff will instruct volunteers about the inclusion of Roanoke County human service funding applications, noting that the review process will be the same as for program applications of United Way Partner Agencies. All volunteers are given a packet of information, including standard review criteria and scoring sheets and instructions. D. Agency Site Visits Each panel will organize its own set of site visits to agencies that have program applications within its panel. The purpose of these site visits is to give United Way volunteers an overview of the agency and its programs, not just the program being reviewed, and a view of the agency and its programs "in action". United Way of Roanoke Valley - Roanoke County Human Service Funding Proposal - DRAFT E. Initial Review Meeting After each panel member has read all of the applications in their panel, the panel will meet to discuss their initial perception of the application's relative strengths and weaknesses and to formulate questions it has about the application contents, such as budgetary items or evidence that the program is measuring its outcomes. F. Questions About the Application Following the panel's initial review meeting, questions that the panel has about the application and funding request are written and forwarded to the agency. The agency is given both the opportunity to submit written responses and to appear before the panel at the Program Review Conference to answer the questions raised by the panel. G. Program Review Conference This conference is mandatory for both the panel volunteers and the agency that has submitted the program application. The purpose of the Conference is to review with agency representatives questions raised by the panel, provide an opportunity for agency representatives to supplement their written application with a verbal presentation relevant to their application and funding request, and to submit information relevant to the application that was obtained after the application was submitted. H. Application Scoring Following the Program Review Conference, panel volunteers will individually complete scoring sheets for each program, based on a standard set of criteria weighted according to their relative importance. For instance, compliance with expectations for conducting program outcome measurement will carry greater importance (weighting factor of 5) than goals and objectives that are clearly stated (weighting factor of 2). Listed below are the six (6) criteria that will form the basis of an application's review and consequent funding recommendation. The weight of each criterion is noted in parentheses, as well as the percentage of the total score that the criterion affects. 1. Need for the program is well substantiated and the program is aligned with one or more strategic directions from United Way Community Care portfolios (weighting factor = 5; 25% of total score possible) 2. Goals and objectives are clearly stated and well aligned with the organization's mission and need or problem to be addressed (weighting factor = 2; 10% of total score possible) 3. Services, target population and/or geographic area and outreach efforts are well defined and suited for achieving stated goals and objectives (weighting factor = 3; 15% of total score possible) 4. Program shows concrete evidence of meaningful partnership/collaboration with other organizations (weighting factor= 2; 10% of total score possible) 5. Program complies with current expectations regarding outcome measurement (weighting factor = 5; 25% of total score possible) United Way of Roanoke Valley - Roanoke County Human Service Funding Proposal - DRAFT 6. Program demonstrates a reasonable request for funding and a responsible plan for spending United Way funds (additional credit given for ability to leverage other resources) (weighting factor = 3; 15% of total score possible) Each panel member would apply ratings to each of the criteria above using the following scale: 1 - does not meet criterion at all 2 - somewhat meets criterion 3 - adequately meets criterion 4 - strongly meets criterion 5 - exceeds criterion For example, a volunteer might assign the following scores to an application, using the following formula: Rating X Weighting Factor= Score Criteria Rating Weighting;: Factor Score Need for program/Alignment with Strategic Directions 4 5 20 Goals & objectives 2 2 4 Services well-suited 5 3 15 Collaboration 5 2 10 Outcome measurement 4 5 20 Funding request 2 3 6 Total Score 75 In the above example, "strongly meets criterion" ratings (4) on the "need for program" and 'outcome measurement" criteria result in greater points toward the total score than other criteria because they are weighted more heavily. Program ratings for the outcome measurement criterion will be guided by the result of a special review by United Way volunteers and staff in conjunction with the Outcome Advisory Committee (which is comprised of Partner Agency representatives) to determine the degree to which each program complies with current United Way expectations regarding outcome measurement. The total possible points would be 100 (if an application received an "exceeds criterion" rating on all six criteria). A total score for a program would be the average of scores given by panel volunteers. ® Funding recommendations After all panels have scored their applications, scores will be submitted to the Resource Distribution Cabinet that will make recommendations for Roanoke County human service funding. The funding recommendations will be made by reconciling the following factors: ■ distribution of scores (i.e. preference for funding given to highest scores); ■ funding requests; United Way of Roanoke Valley - Roanoke County Human Service Funding Proposal - DRAFT - ■ amount of County funding available; The Resource Distribution Cabinet is comprised of co-chairs who are also United Way Board members and chairs of each of the six Community Care Portfolios. Following the receipt of human service funds from Roanoke County, funding recommendations will be forwarded to United Way staff responsible for disbursement of funds to agencies on a monthly or quarterly basis for the 2000-2001 fiscal year (July 1, 2000 through June 30, 2001). Cost to Roanoke County A fee will not be charged to Roanoke County by the United Way of Roanoke Valley for review of year 2000 requests for Roanoke County human service funding. However, United Way will assess any additional costs incurred as a result of incorporating County human service funding requests in its annual program review process in 2000 to determine whether an administrative fee is necessary in future years. United Way of Roanoke Valley - Roanoke County Human Service Funding Proposal - DRAFT Question & Answers - Roanoke County Human Service Funding Proposal Q: Won't making organizations who want to apply for Roanoke County funding use the Consolidated Application be unfair since before they did not have to complete such a lengthy application? A: No. All eighteen (18) organizations that received County funding for fiscal year 1999- 2000 completed the United Way/City of Roanoke Consolidated Human Services Funding Application either because they applied for United Way funding, City of Roanoke funding or both. Only five (5) organizations that applied (but did not receive funding) did not complete a Consolidated Application. Assistance from United Way staff will be offered to any organization needing help in completing the Consolidated Application. Q: Will this process be unfair to organizations who are not United Way Partner Agencies? A: No. A standard set of criteria will be used so that all applications are scored based on their merits, not on a history of partnership with the United Way. Organizations that are not United Way Partners will be given the same consideration for funding by the Resource Distribution Cabinet. In addition, 93% of Roanoke County Human Service funding went to United Way Partner Agencies this year (FY 1999-2000). Q: Why should the Resource Distribution Cabinet make the final funding recommendations for County applicants? A: The Cabinet will need to reconcile the scores from multiple panels with the total amount of funding available from the County (approximately $135,000). Scores will reflect relative strengths and weaknesses of County applications and will help guide funding recommendations. Roanoke County representatives will have the opportunity at the Cabinet level to provide input into the funding recommendations if this is desired.

AT A REGULAR MEETING OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF ROANOKE COUNTY, ROANOKE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION CENTER, 5204 BERNARD DRIVE, SW., ROANOKE COUNTY, VIRGINIA ON TUESDAY, MEETING DATE: November 23, 1999 AGENDA ITEM: Request to enter into a contract to accept $50,000 grant from the Fifth District Regional Alliance for Regional Competitiveness funds to assist Roanoke County with infrastructure construction of the Blue Ridge Parkway Orientation/Interpretation Center. COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR'S COMMENTS: EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: This is the second grant that Roanoke County has received from the Fifth District Regional Alliance. This grant is for the infrastructure construction of the Blue Ridge Parkway Interpretive Center. The previous one was received in January, 1999, to assist in designing and creating construction documents for the construction of the Blue Ridge Parkway Orientation/Interpretation Center. To obtain the $50,000 award, Roanoke County must enter into a contract with the Fifth Planning District Regional Alliance. These funds are an important part of what is needed for this worthwhile regional project. BACKGROUND: Roanoke County has taken the lead on this project during the past several years to locate a National Park Service facility along the Blue Ridge Parkway to meet the needs of parkway travelers and visitors to the region. In working with an ad hoc regional tourism oriented group and with the help of Congressman Goodlatte and Senator Warner have obtained federal funds for to plan, design, program and construct an interpretive center between the Arthur Taubman Welcome Center and the Brugh Tavern at Virginia's Explore Park. A Cooperative Agreement has been completed among participating entities involved in the project, allocating federal funds for design and construction. Many challenges have been overcome with the cooperation of regional governments and organizations which have supported this project. This project represents a exciting partnership of public and non- profit organizations for the betterment of the greater Roanoke Valley region. FISCAL IMPACT: Roanoke County would be responsible for the appropriate expenditure of the funds and provide quarterly reports to the Alliance. Other funds available for the project: $250,000 National Park Service (design & construction) 529,800 Highway Trust Fund ($600,000) 30,000 Roanoke County in the current budget 50,000 Regional Alliance (final design) $859,800 Total Construction costs are estimated at $1,900,000. Additional sources of funds will be sought from local and state governments, TEA -21, and private sources. ALTERNATIVES Accept the $50,000 to assist in the implementation of the Blue Ridge Parkway Orientation/Interpretation Center and authorize the County Administrator to enter into a contract with the Fifth District Regional Alliance. 2. Do not accept the $50,000 to assist in the implementation of the Blue Ridge Parkway Orientation/Interpretation Center. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the Board of Supervisors accept the $50,000 and authorize the County Administrator to enter into a contract, as approved by the County Attorney, with the Fifth Planning District Regional Alliance for assisting with the infrastructure construction of the Blue Ridge Parkway Orientation/Interpretation Center.

NOW, THEREFORE, Be It Resolved by the Board of Supervisors of Roanoke County, Virginia, that the following legislative initiatives are submitted for its legislative program for the 2000 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) 1) The Constitution of the Commonwealth of Virginia should be amended 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 1 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. 3) Local school divisions should be authorized to establish opening dates for school. 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. Transportation and Highway Safety. 1) 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. Roanoke County requests additional and immediate funding for improvements to U.S. Route 11/460 west of Salem, Interstate 81 and Interstate 73. Additional maintenance funding shall be used for an expanded program to mow grass and weeds, and inspect and clean drainage pipes and culverts. 2) Roanoke County is in support of Roanoke City's support of 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. C.

ITEM NUMBER_ AT A REGULAR MEETING OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF ROANOKE COUNTY, VIRGINIA HELD AT THE ROANOKE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION CENTER MEETING DATE: November 23, 1999 AGENDA ITEM: Additional Information from FY1998-1999 Departmental Rollover Requests. and approval of roll-over requests for Sheriffs Office and Police Department COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR'S COMMENTS: SUMMARY OF INFORMATION: During the work session on departmental rollover requests at the November 9, 1999 Board of Supervisors meeting, the Board requested additional information concerning specific requests from the Sheriff's Department for $37,151 for weapons replacement and the Police Department for $3,495 in matching funds for a state grant. Pending final approval of these requests, the $40,646 was placed in the Capital Fund -Unappropriated Balance. Staff has prepared the requested information as follows: Sheriff's Department The Sheriff has submitted additional information to substantiate his request. Several factors were cited that justified the replacement request—Safety, reliability, and functionality. The current weapon utilized by the Sheriffs Department is the 9mm. This standard was adopted in 1984-85 and was the only weapon available at that time that fit the requirements of the Department (primary emphasis on law enforcement needs). A safety concern of using the 9mm for the current responsibilities of the Sheriff relating to Courthouse and Jail security is "over -penetration" of the bullet. The small bullet travels at a high rate of speed and, unless it strikes a solid object, will pass completely through a human's body; thus endangering bystanders. The smaller bullet also has trouble penetrating a windshield, or even a pane of glass. From a reliability and functionality standpoint, the 9mm is in need of replacement. The weapons are 14-15 years old and malfunction more frequently; thus, additional replacement parts must be stocked. Personnel must also have confidence in their sidearm. The replacement weapon, .40 or .45 caliber, is easier to handle and the larger bullet has greater knockdown ability. Roanoke County Police, Roanoke City Police and Sheriff, Salem Police, Botetourt County, Franklin County, and Vinton have all switched to the larger caliber sidearm. Police Department The Police Department requested $3,495 to match a state grant from the Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA) for community policing. The BJA grant is a different grant from the one that was funded in the FY1999-2000 budget. Those funds ($15,000) matched a DCJS grant for domestic violence programs. FISCAL IMPACT: No fiscal impact. Approval of these requests would re -appropriate $40,646 from the Capital Fund -Unappropriated Balance to the Sheriff's Department ($37,151) and to the Police Department ($3,495). STAFF RECOMMENDATION: If the Board approves these requests, staff will bring the re - appropriation request for Board action at the December 7, 1999 meeting. Respectfully submitted, W• W.

COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR'S COMMENTS: Recommend approval of alternative #2. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: Staff is requesting the Board of Supervisors to approve the prioritized list of projects for the FY 2000-2001 VDOT Revenue Sharing Program and authorize the County Administrator to sign the letter of intent to participate in the Revenue Sharing Program for Fiscal Year 2000-2001. BACKGROUND: The Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) annually provides localities the opportunity to receive state matching funds for the construction, maintenance, and improvement to primary and secondary roads in the state's highway system. The Commonwealth of Virginia provides $15,000,000 for the matching program and limits localities to $500,000 each. However, if more or fewer than 20 counties participate, our share of money will be reduced/increased proportionately. SUMMARY OF INFORMATION: As a result of the work session on revenue sharing priorities at the October 26, 1999 Board meeting, we have adjusted the revenue sharing requests to add the roads that will be used for an entrance to the new South County High School. We have added Pleasant Hill Drive and Bent Mountain Road to the proposed priority list for FY 2000-2001. We have received a written agreement from the School Board for the $200,000 required for these two roads for the school project. This reduces the overall amount that can be allocated to Countywide items from $500,000 to 1 $300,000. Items that are being deferred as a result of adding the roads for the school project will be added to the list for the following revenue sharing year. ALTERNATIVES AND IMPACTS: 1) Approve the project list as initially presented at the October 16, 1999 work session and authorize the County Administrator to sign the letter of intent and defer appropriation of the funds ($500,000) until July 1, 2000. 2) Approve the project list as amended at the October 26, 1999 work session to include $200,000 from the Schools for improvements to Pleasant Hill Drive and Bent Mountain Road for the new South County High School, and authorize the County Administrator to sign the letter of intent and defer appropriation of the funds ($500,000) until July 1, 2000. 2) Decline to participate in the Revenue Sharing Program for Fiscal Year 2000- 2001.
