ITEM NO. E-1
AT A REGULAR MEETING OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF ROANOKE
COUNTY, VIRGINIA HELD AT THE ROANOKE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION CENTER
MEETING DATE: August 23, 2005
AGENDA ITEM: Request to appropriate $156,000 to add two (2) additional
Animal Control Officers with vehicles and equipment
SUBMITTED BY: Ray Lavinder
Chief of Police
APPROVED BY: Elmer C. Hodge
County Administrator
COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR'S COMMENTS:
SUMMARY OF INFORMATION:
The animal control function was established and operated out of the County
Administrator's Office until it was transferred to the Police Department in 1994. For more
than 25 years the County has functioned with three animal control officers. During this time
period, the number of calls for service and the population has increased substantially. In
the five year period from 1999 to 2004, animal control calls increased from 2,009 to 3,071,
an increase of over 34%.
The three officers are scheduled so that there is available coverage from 8:00 a.m. to 6:30
p.m. Monday through Friday, and one officer is scheduled each weekend from 8:00 a.m. to
4:30 p.m. For the times that there is not an officer on duty, there is always one officer
available on call. The average response time for animal control officers who are on duty is
forty three (43) minutes.
Currently, there are approximately 3,000 animal control -related calls per year. Because of
the shortage in staffing, about 35% of animal control calls are being handled by uniform
patrol officers, who do not have the equipment and are not trained in humane and safe
capture techniques. Without the equipment and the training to handle these calls, most
cases require a follow-up call by an animal control officer at a later time. These follow-up
calls are not counted in the statistical data.
Wild animals are the responsibility of the Virginia Game Commission; however, the Police
Department has a practice of responding to calls from citizens dealing with wild animals, in
addition to handling domestic animals. This is done to ensure the safety of citizens who
cannot receive a timely response from the Virginia Game Commission.
The City of Salem has four personnel assigned to the animal control function and the City
of Roanoke has eight persons assigned. Travel time with a captured animal is insignificant
with both of these cities, while it consumes a significant portion of the Roanoke County
Animal Control Officer's work day. Vinton has one animal control officer.
As evidenced by the statistics outlined above, it is essential that Roanoke County increase
the number of Animal Control Officers by two to a total of five positions. We will also need
to increase the Department's vehicle count by two and include funds to purchase the
necessary vehicles and equipment. The additional two positions will allow for scheduling
full coverage from 8:00 a.m. to 8:30 p.m. Monday through Friday, and to have two officers
working on the weekends.
It is important to hire these officers immediately because the next Police Academy starts
October 3, 2005. These officers will spend 27 weeks in the Academy, and graduate in
early April 2006. They will then have 12-16 weeks of field training before their training is
complete.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The fiscal impact of increasing staffing by two positions is approximately $156,000. This
will include the salary, benefits and equipment for both positions. Of this amount, $70,460
is a recurring cost related to salaries and benefits. The remaining $85,540 is a one-time
cost for vehicles, training, uniforms, and equipment.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
According to the Budget Department, based upon preliminary year end projections, real
estate taxes will exceed the budgeted amount for 2005-06 by this amount. Staff
recommends increasing the real estate revenue budget by $156,000 and appropriating
these funds to the two new animal control officers, their vehicles and equipment.

VOTE:
Supervisor McNamara motion to appropriate $85,540 from capital and $70,460 from
year-end savings to fund the two new animal control officers, their vehicles, and
equipment.

ACTION NO. A-082305-2
ITEM NO. E-2
AT A REGULAR MEETING OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF ROANOKE
COUNTY, VIRGINIA HELD AT THE ROANOKE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION CENTER
MEETING DATE: August 23, 2005
AGENDA ITEM: Request to approve change order for sewer line replacement
for the Public Safety Building
SUBMITTED BY: Dan O'Donnell
Assistant County Administrator
APPROVED BY: Elmer C. Hodge
County Administrator
COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR'S COMMENTS:
SUMMARY OF INFORMATION:
As previously discussed with the Board at the June 24, 2005, Board of Supervisor's
meeting, analysis of the existing sewer line which serves the school administration building
and served the old school warehouses shows that it is in very poor condition and does not
meet Western Virginia Water Authority (WVWA) standards. Therefore it must be replaced.
The old line is a 6" terra cotta line and has many cracks and leaks. The replacement line
will be 8" PVC and will be constructed in accordance with WVWA standards. Upon
completion of the project, it will be turned over to the WVWA and will become a public
sewer line. This line will serve the existing school administration building as well as the
new public safety building.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The cost for the change order is $�'� $124,407. The original change order proposal
from Northrop -Grumman was $146,000. However, Construction Dynamics Group, the
County's construction management firm, was successful in working to improve the
alignment in order to shorten the length of the line. This resulted in a savings of $2
1,481
$21,593.
Funds for the sewer line will come from the contingency account. The current balance of
the contingency account is $492,211. Upon execution of this change order, the balance of
the contingency will be $367,692 $367,804.
ALTERNATIVES:
Staff worked with the WMA to investigate the possibility of running the line behind the
school administration building through two private properties to connect with the public line
along Green Ridge Road. This alternative would have provided a better route for private
property owners along Ponderosa Drive to connect to public sewer. However, the largest
property owner does not plan to develop her property in the future and does not want the
line to pass through her property. Therefore this alternative was dropped from
consideration.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the approval of the change order to provide for approximately 1,605
linear feet of 8" sewer line and five manholes at the cost of $124,519 $124,407 to be paid
from the contingency account.
VOTE:
Supervisor Church motion to approve staff recommendation (with revised cost of
$124,407 to be paid from the public safety building contingency account)
