ATTEST: Se r tar VOTE: AYES: Gust, Lawrence, Minnix, Doole NAYS: None ABSENT: Porterfield ACTION NO. 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: AGENDA ITEM: SUBMITTED BY: APPROVED BY: March 27, 2012 Resolution setting the allocation percentage for personal property tax relief for the 2012 tax year Laurie Gearheart Assistant Director of Finance B. Clayton Goodman III County Administrator COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR'S COMMENTS: BACKGROUND: The Personal Property Tax Relief Act (PPTRA or the Act) of 1998 established aState -wide program to provide relief to owners of personal use motor vehicles. The 1998 Act envisioned a five (5) year phase -in of relief expressed as a percentage of the bill related to the first $20,000 of personal use vehicle value. Costs soared and the percentage was frozen at seventy (70 %) since 2001. In 2004 and 2005, additional legislation was passed to amend the original Act. This legislation capped PPTRA at $950 million for all Virginia localities for Tax Years 2005 and beyond. PPTRA funds are allocated to individual localities based on each government's pro rata share of Tax Year 2004 payments from the Commonwealth. The County's share of the $950 million is $12,229,857. At the December 20, 2005, Board meeting ordinance 122005 -10 amending the Roanoke County Code by adding a new Section 21 -225 to provide for the implementation of the 2004 -2005 changes to the Personal Property Tax Relief Act (PPTRA) of 1998 was adopted by the Board of Supervisors. Page 1 of 2 SUMMARY OF INFORMATION: The County uses The PPTRA Allocation Model developed by the State to calculate the effective reimbursement rate. This model uses historical trends and a five (5) year rolling average to calculate the effective reimbursement rate. This same methodology for calculating the rate is used by many of our neighboring localities. In 2012, once again County staff computed the effective reimbursement rate based upon the PPTRA allocation model. The percentage is similar to those localities that are ready to adopt their resolutions. The rate for the county is 05.54% and The Town of Vinton is 85.86 %. The Board is required by the State to annually adopt a resolution setting the percentage reduction in personal property for that year. The attached resolution establishes the percentage reduction at 65.54% for the 2012 tax year. FISCAL IMPACT: The percentage reduction is calculated to distribute the $12,229,857 block grant allocation from the State in the manner described above. There will be some timing delays in the receipt of the State funds, since they are now being received in the following fiscal year (2012 - 2013), but Roanoke county will be allowed to accrue these funds back to the 2011- 2012 year for accounting purposes so the budget will be balanced. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff reviewed this calculation and recommend adopting the attached resolution which establishes the percentage reduction for personal property tax relief at 65.54% for Roanoke county for the 2012 tax year. Page 2 of 2 AT A REGULAR MEETING OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF ROANOKE COUNTY, VIRGINIA, HELD AT THE ROANOKE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION CENTER ON TUESDAY, MARCH 27, 2012 RESOLUTION SETTING THE ALLOCATION PERCENTAGE FOR PERSONAL PROPERTY TAX RELIEF IN ROANOKE COUNTY FOR THE 2012 TAX YEAR WHEREAS, in accordance with the requirements set forth in Section 58.1 -3524 (C) (2) and Section 58.1 -3912 (E) of the Code of Virginia, as amended by Chapter 1 of the Acts of Assembly and as set forth in item 503.E (Personal Property Tax Relief Program or "PPTRA ") of Chapter 951 of the 2005 Acts of Assembly and qualifying vehicle with a taxable situs within the County commencing January 1, 2012, shall receive personal property tax relief; and, WHEREAS, this Resolution is adopted pursuant to Ordinance 122005 -10 adopted by the Board of Supervisors on December 20, 2005.

That tax relief shall be allocated so as to eliminate personal property taxation for qualifying personal use vehicles valued at $1,000 or less. 2. That qualifying personal use vehicles valued at $1,001 - $20,000 will be eligible for 65.54% tax relief. 3. That qualifying personal use vehicles valued at $20,001 or more shall only receive 65.54% tax relief on the first $20,000 of value; and 4. That all other vehicles which do not meet the definition of qualifying (for example, including but not limited to, business use vehicles, farm use vehicles, motor homes, etc.) will not be eligible for any form of tax relief Linder this program. Page 1 of 2 5. That the percentages applied to the categories of qualifying personal use vehicles are estimated fully to use all available PPTRA funds allocated to Roanoke County by the Commonwealth of Virginia. 6. supplemental assessments for tax years 2005 and prior shall be deemed non - qualifying for purposes of state tax relief and the local share due from the taxpayer shall represent 100% of the assessed personal property tax. 7.

E -4 AT A REGULAR MEETING OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF ROANOKE COUNTY, VIRGINIA HELD AT THE ROANOKE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION CENTER MEETING DATE: AGENDA ITEM: SUBMITTED BY: APPROVED BY: March 27, 2012 Request for approval of agreements between the County of Roanoke and - the Western Virginia Water Authority for use of space on tower sites for meter reading radio equipment County Administrator kA Anne Marie Green Director of Department of General Services B. Clayton Goodman III 7LL COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR'S COMMENTS: SUMMARY OF INFORMATION: v � w The Western Virginia Water Authority has requested permission to install equipment on the County's Twelve O'clock Knob and Ft. Lewis Mountain towers for radio equipment required for implementation of the new remote meter reading system which the Board was briefed about at its March 13, 2012, meeting. Currently, the Water Authority bills on an estimated basis, actually reading the meters every sixty (G0) days. This process is labor intensive, uses a considerable amount of fuel to reach all customers, and is only ninety percent (90 %) accurate. The new system will allow meters to be read continually, so the Authority will be able to bill customers accurately on a monthly basis, monitor unusual usage situations where there may be leakage and is ninety -eight percent (98 %) accurate. It will save money and reduce environmental impact, since manual reading from vehicles will no longer be required. The system requires that radio equipment be placed at various locations around the Roanoke Valley, and two of these sites are Twelve O'clock Knob and Ft. Lewis Mountain. The County's towers at those two sites are used for the public safety radio system and this use would be compatible with that function. The Water Authority will reimburse the County for the additional electricity and maintenance expenses at the two sites in the amount of $250/month for the Twelve o'clock Knob site and $1001month for the Ft. Lewis site. The Page 1 of 2 increased cost for Twelve o'clock Knob includes maintenance for the access road; the Water Authority has a separate access easement with a private citizen for Ft. Lewis. Installation of the equipment as outlined above will allow the Western Virginia Water Authority to provide more accurate billing and service to its customers, the businesses and residents of the Roanoke Valley. FISCAL IMPACT: Roanoke County will receive $4,200 per year as reimbursement for utilities and operating costs involved in use of the county's tower structures. STAFF RECOMMENDA'rION: Staff recommends approval of the agreements between the County of Roanoke and the Western Virginia Water Authority. Staff further recommends that the Board authorize the County Administrator or his designee to execute the necessary documents, on forms approved by the County Attorney's office.

E - 5 AT A REGULAR MEETING OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF ROANOKE COUNTY, VIRGINIA HELD AT THE ROANOKE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION CENTER MEETING DATE: AGENDA ITEM: SUBMITTED BY: APPROVED BY: March 27, 2012 Resolution adopting a revised schedule of ambulance transport fees and providing for an effective date Richard E. Burch, Jr. Chief of Fire and Rescue B. Clayton Goodman III County Administrator COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR'S COMMENTS: SUMMARY OF INFORMATION: The Board of Supervisors implemented ambulance transport fees in - the fall of 2001. The funding was designated to supplement staffing and capital improvement projects for the Fire and Rescue Department. - rhe ambulance transport fees were established to coincide with the rate of the Federal Government's Medicare payment schedule. The Medicare rates are the maximum amounts that Medicare will pay for ambulance transport services and are adjusted annually by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS). By utilizing the Medicare payment schedule, the County receives the maximum allowable reimbursement - from insurance companies and the Medicare program with the least required reimbursement from the patient. The Federal Government increases the Medicare reimbursed rates annually, The Fire and Rescue Department has established a one -step process for writing off payments by patients who are unable to pay their bills. This process of "compassionate billing" ensures that patients will not be subjected to collections if they do not have the means to pay their co- payment for services. The compassionate billing program has been very successful and a number of other Virginia jurisdictions have adopted our process. Page 1 of 2 The new rate increases proposed are to take effect on April 1, 2012 which are listed below: Type of Service Current County Rate Proposed County Rate Basic Life Support (BLS) $350.00 $375.00 Advance Life Support (ALS 1) $380.00 $425.00 Advance Life Support (ALS 2) $625.00 $650.00 Loaded Mileage $11.00 $11.00 Note: The new rate adjustment is projected to increase a patient's Medicare co- payment (out -of- pocket), depending on the type of insurance, by less than $5.00 per ambulance transport. FISCAL IMPACT: The projected increase in ambulance transport fees is approximately $95,000.00 annually in revenue. ALTERNATIVES: 1. Approve the rate increase to help off -set the cost of additional Fire and Rescue Department budget reductions. 2. Do not approve the rate increase and use other funding sources to supplement Fire and Rescue Department's budget. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends Alternative 1: Approve the rate increase to help off -set the cost of additional Fire and Rescue Department budget reductions.

Page 2 of 2 ACTION NO. ITEM NO. E -6 AT A REGULAR MEETING OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF ROANOKE COUNTY, VIRGINIA HELD AT THE ROANOKE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION CENTER MEETING DATE: AGENDA ITEM: SUBMITTED BY: APPROVED BY: March 27, 2012 Resolution authorizing the lease financing of certain fire rescue vehicles in an amount not to exceed $1.6 million Richard E. Burch, Jr. Chief of Fire and Rescue Rebecca Owens Director of Finance B. Clayton Goodman III County Administrator COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR'S COMMENTS: SUMMARY OF INFORMATION: At the July 26, 2011 Board meeting, the Board approved the purchase of three (3) fire vehicles and appropriated $1.6 million of future equipment lease proceeds for the project. Staff indicated that financing for this project would occur in the spring of 2012. The purchase was made through a cooperative contract with Houston Galveston Area Council and awarded to Pierce. The three (3) pumpers will go to Cave Spring, Hollins and Clearbrook stations. Delivery is expected in July /August 2012. This purchase will allow apparatus at those stations to be reassigned to Mason's Cove, Back Creek, Bent Mountain and Mt. Pleasant thus extending the life of these vehicles. This plan will result in three (3) vehicles being taken out of service and surplused. Historically, the County has funded the purchase of fire and rescue apparatus through an internal loan from the Risk Management fund or Health Insurance Reserves. An internal financing was less expensive than a conventional lease purchase or other bank financing. At this time, funds are not available in the Risk Management Fund or Health Insurance Reserves for this purchase. All loans previously made to the Fire Department for the purchase of equipment have been repaid. Page 1 of 2 Our financial advisors, Morgan Keegan, solicited bank bids for the financing of the fire trucks and compared these rates with Virginia Resources Authority (VRA) finance. The request was sent to six (6) banks and bids were received from BB &T and SunTrust Leasing. Attachment B summarizes the results of bids. The lowest all -in yield (after all costs) was submitted by SunTrust Leasing (2.16 %). Although the total debt service payback from VRA was less than SunTrust due to a shorter maturity date and bigger County contribution, the recommendation is to lock in the SunTrust lease as this would eliminate any interest rate risk inherent with a public offering such as the Virginia Resources Authority. FISCAL IMPACT: The amount previously appropriated by the Board was $1.6 million for this purchase. The purchase price for the fire vehicles was $1 ,582,823 and the lease issue costs are $17,750. The Fire department will need to make an upfront contribution of $573. The Fire and Rescue department has $300,000 budgeted for capital in their operating budget that will be used to pay the interest and principal payment associated with the equipment lease. Annual payments are detailed on attachment C. The total of interest and principal for this purchase are $1 ,690,581.98. STAFF RECOMMENDAmriON: Staff recommends approving the attached resolution which authorizes the lease financing of certain fire rescue vehicles in an amount not to exceed $1.6 million.

ITEM NO. F -1 AT A REGULAR MEETING OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF ROANOKE COUNTY, VIRGINIA HELD AT THE ROANOKE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION CENTER MEETING DATE: March 27, 2012 AGENDA ITEM: Ordinance authorizing the granting of a temporary construction easement and a permanent easement to Appalachian Power Company on property owned by the Roanoke County Board of Supervisors known as Leslie Lane (Tax Map #077.15 -01- 11. gg ), Cave Spring Magisterial District SUBMITTED BY: Paul M. Mahoney County Attorney APPROVED BY: B. Clayton Goodman III County Administrator COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR'S COMMENTS: SUMMARY OF INFORMATION: Appalachian Power (AEP) is requesting that the Board of Supervisors sell to it both a temporary construction easement and a permanent easement for the purpose of construction of a quality access road to AEP standards in place of the existing crooked Leslie Lane farm road and also a permanent easement for the construction of a new distribution line and system. This upgraded distribution line and system will serve southwest Roanoke County, Jefferson Hills in Roanoke City and Virginia Western Community College. A drawing entitled "Drawing No. E -SS -33RD Appalachian Power Company Sunscape Entrance" plan prepared by AEP is attached. This plan shows both the location of the temporary easement and the permanent easement across County property. The location of these easements is at the intersection of Leslie Lane and Ogden Road in southwest Roanoke County. The Board of Supervisors previously granted a temporary easement to AEP for certain improvements to Leslie Lane on January 22, 2011. The granting and sale of these easements will provide for additional improvements to this area and to the electrical system serving this part of Roanoke County and Roanoke City. Pagel of 2 The consideration for the sale of these easements by the County to AEP is $7,500 or $2.00 per square foot of the permanent easement. Under Section 10.01 of the Roanoke county Charter, proceeds from the sale of real estate and other capital facilities shall be paid into a capital facilities account and spent from that account only for the acquisition, construction, maintenance, or replacement of other capital facilities. On December 4, 2007, (Action #A- 120407 -1) the Board adopted a policy for the granting of easements across county property. A copy of this policy is attached to this Board report. The purchase price consideration offered to the County by AEP for this permanent easement is not consistent with this adopted Board policy. Applying this policy to this transaction would result in a consideration in excess of $15,000. The existing policy was intended to apply to requests by developers for easements across County park property to benefit private development. The easements requested by AEP will benefit the public at large, and it will cross an existing private road, Leslie Lane, which is encumbered with use rights several private parties. This policy and the various fees (administration and plan review fee, site inspection fee, construction permit fee, reseed inglmuIchinglsodding fee) do not appear to apply to this proposed transaction. FISCAL IMPACT: Consideration for these easements in the amount of $7,500. ALTERNATIVES: 1. Approve the adoption of the attached ordinance at first reading. Authorize the sale of a temporary construction easement and permanent easement to Appalachian Power in exchange for the payment of $7,500. Schedule a second reading and public hearing on this proposed ordinance for April 10, 2012, at 3 pm in the afternoon. Waive the application of County policy for the granting of easements — Action #A-120407-1. 2. Decline to adopt the proposed ordinance granting the conveyance of a temporary and permanent construction easement to Appalachian Power. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends Alternative 1. Staff recommends that the Board authorize the sale of the temporary and permanent easements to AEP for the amount of construction offered, $7,500, staff also recommends that the Board agreed to waive the application of County policy for the granting of easements (Action A -1 20407 -1). Staff recommends that the Board schedule a public hearing on this matter for April 10, 2012 at 3 pm in the afternoon.

Mahoney County Attorney COUNTY ADMINIS'TRATOR'S COMMENTS: SUMNtARY OF INFORMATION: The Board directed County staff to recommend changes in the method for determining the value of easements across County property. Attached is a draft policy for consideration by the Board of Supervisors. Previously, the County had determined the valuation of easements based upon the tax assessment value of the easement reduced by 40 percent. This 40 percent reduction was based upon the belief that underground utilities would have a lesser impact upon the remaining value of the property since the landowner could still enjoy the benefit of the surface use of his/her property. This method was used by the County to acquire water and sewer easements when the utility department was part of the County. During the past year, the county has received several requests for easements across County park property. Neither the Board nor County staff believes that the method described above adequately protects the public's interest in county property. The draft policy would analyze these requests utilizing several factors focusing upon adequate compensation for the use of public property, compatibility with other public uses, an examination of other alternatives, and minimizing harm to the public property. - this policy establishes a fee schedule including administration and plan review, site inspection, and construction permits. It also imposes fees for resodding /mulching /sodding and minimum monetary assurance (bond, letter of credit, cash escrow). This fee schedule also establishes a formula for determining the it permanent easement fee ". This formula is based upon the square foot value of the land based upon the County tax assessment, with a minimum fee of $2.00 per square foot. In the alternative, the County may retain an independent appraiser to determine the value of the easement. Finally, the County should also consider the future revenue producing potential of the proposed non - public use of County land. ALTERNATIVES: 1. Adopt the attached policy for the granting of easements across County property. 2. Continue to use the existing 40 percent reduction from the County tax assessment formula. 3. Direct staff to develop a different policy. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the Board favorably consider the adoption of the attached policy. VOTE: Supervisor Altizer motion to approve staff recommendation Motion Approved cc: Paul Mahoney, County Attorney Peter Haislip, Director, Parks, Recreation and Tourism Arnold Covey, Director, Community Development Billy Driver, Director, Real Estate Valuation Anne Marie Green, Director, General Services Rebecca Owen, Director, Finance Terrie Cochran, Executive Secretary Yes No Abs Mr. Wray z ❑ 1:1 Mr. Church F Mr. Altizer z El ❑ Mr. Flora F F Mr. McNamara 1:1 F cc: Paul Mahoney, County Attorney Peter Haislip, Director, Parks, Recreation and Tourism Arnold Covey, Director, Community Development Billy Driver, Director, Real Estate Valuation Anne Marie Green, Director, General Services Rebecca Owen, Director, Finance Terrie Cochran, Executive Secretary POLICY FOR THE GRANTING OF EASEMENTS ACROSS COUNTY PROPERTY Roanoke County shall require adequate compensation for the use of County property for other than public purposes based upon the extent of the impact, the sensitivity of impacted areas, the loss or diminution of future public uses and length of time that County activities may be disrupted. Roanoke County shall consider request for easements by private parties for non- public uses of County land only under the following conditions: 1, Where the County has determined that the proposed use or facility is compatible with other planned or existing public uses and the subject site, or 2. When it has been determined that there is no feasible or prudent alternative to the use of County property for this specified purpose; and 3. All possible planning to minimize harm is included in the proposed project. In addition the County shall require monetary assurances (e.g. bond, letter of credit, cash escrow) of the requesting agency, corporation, and/or individual to insure compliance with easement requirements including restoration of impacted areas. The County shall also consider the future revenue producing potential of the proposed non - public use of County land. The County Administrator or his designee is authorized to develop minimum requirements for easement plans, site or project plan requirements, and restoration plans for easement requests. The Board hereby establishes the following schedule of fees and charges, which are in addition to the County's development review and inspection fees, for easements across County property: Administration and plan review fee $1 ,000 Permanent easement fee Determined by the following formula ($2.00 per square foot minimum). Formula is "Permanent Easement Fee" = Roanoke County tax assessment value /square feet X Total Area of Easement (square feet). Temporary Construction Easement Fee The greater amount of $0.50 /sq. ft. or 50% of the Permanent Easement Fee Site inspection fee $50 /hour (maximum of 10 hours included in Construction Permit Fee Construction permit fee $1,000 Monetary assurance minimum $5,000 Reseed in /mulchin /sodd ing fees $5/$5/$10 pe r sq uare ya nd In the alternative when determining the permanent easement fee, the County may retain an independent appraiser to determine the valuation of the easement. The County may also consider in -kind public improvements in lieu of the payment of the permanent easement fee. ACTION NO. ITEM NO. G -1 AT A REGULAR MEETING OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF ROANOKE COUNTY, VIRGINIA HELD AT THE ROANOKE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION CENTER MEETING DATE: March 27, 2012 AGENDA ITEM: SUBMITTED BY: Ordinance amending Section 23 -3.4. "Stormwater management facility maintenance agreements" of Chapter 23. "Stormwater Management" of the Roanoke County Code Paul M. Mahoney County Attorney COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR'S COMMENTS: SUMMARY OF INFORMATION: This is the second reading of an ordinance to amend the Stormwater Management chapter of the Roanoke County Code. The first reading was held on September 13, 2011. This amendment imposes additional obligations on developers for bonding, maintenance, inspection and notification of homeowners associations (HOAs) for stormwater detention facilities. A public hearing was held on January 24, 2012. Roanoke County environmental engineers have been inspecting stormwater detention facilities throughout the County. Inspection reports identifying deficiencies and maintenance or repair obligations have been prepared and sent to the owners and responsible parties, including HOAs. Many of the HOA representatives have claimed that they had no knowledge of these responsibilities. During community and civic association meetings, many citizens have requested that the County require the developer to notify them of any transfer of responsibility for these stormwater facilities. Many citizens have complained that the stormwater facility has deteriorated due to lack of maintenance by the developer. After the first reading of this ordinance staff met on October 19, 2011, with the Roanoke Regional Homebuilders Association (RRHBA), explained the background and purpose of this ordinance, provided examples of problems which the ordinance is designed to address, and answered questions. The RRHBA provided a written response to this proposal on December 1, 2011. County staff and the RRHBA met again on February 8, 2012, to clarify issues, explore alternatives and to refine further this proposed ordinance. Page 1 of 2 Builders, developers and engineers offered suggestions, which were analyzed in consideration of the problems and issues that prompted the consideration of this ordinance. The revisions to this ordinance incorporate many of the suggestions of the RRH BA This ordinance, which has been revised since the first reading, attempts to address several of these complaints by requiring (i) a maintenance guaranty or security in the amount of twenty percent (20 %) of the original construction cost or minimum HOA funding based upon number of lots in the development, (ii) inspection of the facility by the County before transfer of maintenance responsibility; (iii) requirements for transfer of maintenance responsibilities to an HOA; and (iv) a meeting with the HOA and County staff prior to transfer of maintenance responsibility. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Board favorably consider the adoption of - this ordinance. Page 2of2 AT A REGULAR MEETING OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF ROANOKE COUNTY, VIRGINIA, HELD AT THE ROANOKE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION CENTER ON TUESDAY, MARCH 27, 2012 ORDINANCE AMENDING SECTION 23 -3.4. "STORMWATER MANAGEMENT FACILITY MAINTENANCE AGREEMENTS" OF CHAPTER 23. "STORMWATER MANAGEMENT" OF THE ROANOKE COUNTY CODE WHEREAS, the Board of Supervisors finds that many storm water detention facilities are not being maintained and that this poses a threat to public health and safety; and WHEREAS, the Board of Supervisors finds that many homeowners' associations are not notified of their maintenance responsibilities by developers; and WHEREAS, the Board finds that measures to insure maintenance of such facilities such as notification, bonding or other forms of security would alleviate many of these maintenance failures; and WHEREAS, this ordinance has been developed with the assistance and recommendations of the Roanoke Regional Home Builders Association; and WHEREAS, this ordinance is authorized by the Virginia Stormwater Management Law in Title 10.1 of the Code of Virginia; and WHEREAS, the first reading of this ordinance was held on September 13, 2011 the public hearing was held on January 24, 2012, and the second reading was held on March 27, 2012. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED by the Board of Supervisors of Roanoke County as follow: 1. That Section 23 -3.4. of Chapter 23. Stormwater Management be amended to read and provide as follows: Page 1 of 3 Sec. 23 -3.4. — Stormwater management facility maintenance agreements. Prior to the issuance of any permit that has a stormwater management facility as one of the requirements of the permit, the permittee or owner of the site must execute an access easement agreement and a formal maintenance covenant that shall be binding on all subsequent owners of land served by the stormwater management faci I ity. (1) Access easement agreement. a. The access easement agreement shall provide for access to stormwater management facilities at reasonable times for periodic inspection by the county, or their contractor or agent, and for regular assessments of land owners to ensure that the facility is maintained in proper working condition to meet design standards and any other provisions established by this chapter. The easement agreement shall be recorded by the county in the land records. b. When any new stormwater management facility is installed on private property, or when any new connection is made between private property and a public storm drainage system, duly authorized employees, agents, or representatives of the county shall be authorized to enter any public or private property at any reasonable time for the purpose of inspection. This includes the right to enter a property when it has a reasonable basis to believe that a violation of this chapter is occurring or has occurred, and to enter when necessary for abatement of a public nuisance or correction of a violation of this chapter. (2) Maintenance covenants. a. Maintenance of all stormwater management facilities shall be ensured through the creation of a formal maintenance covenant that must be approved by county and recorded into the land record prior to final plan approval. The covenant shall identify by name or official title the person(s) responsible for carrying out the maintenance. b. Responsibility for the operation and maintenance of stormwater management facilities, unless assumed by a governmental agency, shall remain with the property owner and shall pass to any successor or owner. If portions of the land are to be sold, legally binding arrangements shall be made to pass the basic responsibility to successors in title. These arrangements shall designate for each land owner, governmental agency, or other legally established entity to be permanently responsible for maintenance. C.

Clayton Goodman III County Administrator w-- (Oky COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR'S COMMENTS: SUMMARY OF INFORMATION: The county of Roanoke requests that the Board of Supervisors approve a resolution dedicating 0.2157 acres as right -of -way for public use. This property is a portion of tax parcel #038.10- 01 -07, owned by the Board of Supervisors, and adjoining John Richardson Road. On April 12, 2011, the Board of Supervisors approved a resolution supporting removal of the bridge over Carvins Creek on John Richardson Road and construction of a cul -de -sac. The new cul -de -sac will be constructed on property owned by the Board of Supervisors. Construction and maintenance of the new cul -de -sac by Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) requires dedication of the right -of -way for public use. Since this project does not create a new subdivision street, or extend existing John Richardson Road, VDOT only requires the dedication and recordation of right of way, rather than the typical acceptance procedures for new subdivision streets. FISCAL IMPACT: None. Existing revenue sharing funds of $249,640 applied to the project are expected to cover the construction costs. Page 1 of 2 AL'rERNATIVES: 1. Adopt a resolution dedicating as right of way for public use a portion of property owned by the Roanoke County Board of Supervisors, tax parcel #038.16-01-01 2. Take no action at this time.

Brent Robertson Director of Management and Budget APPROVED BY: B. Clayton Goodman III 17- County Administrator wo_� vul od COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR'S COMMENTS: SUMMARY OF INFORMATION: This time has been set aside to discuss Roanoke County's budget development for fiscal year 2912 -2913. Page 1 of 1 N -1.a County of Roanoke FY12 -13 Budget Development Departmental Budget Reduction Summary Department Reduction Police $120,000 ■ Vehicle replacement funding will be reduced. This will result in four fewer vehicles purchased per year (at ^'$30,000 per vehicle). This still leaves the department with approximately $585,000 in vehicle replacement funding. Fire and Rescue $SD,D00 ■ The department will reduce general operating expenses by $50,000 with the goal of minimizing impact to operations, to the extent possible. ■ Per prior Board approval, the department will also adjust ALS fees to current Medicare rates. This fee increase will generate an additional $95,000 of revenue. In addition, for FY10 -11, $130,000 of ALS fees were collected in excess of budget projections. Therefore, an upward adjustment in ALS fees of $130,000 will be made to recognize the increase in revenue collected. Total increase in ALS revenues will be $225,000. General Services • 'rhe Freeloader service will be eliminated; $40,500 of savings will be realized through the elimination of the position associated with this service through attrition. An alternative to eliminating this service would be to charge a fee to cover associated costs, • Dumpster contracts for specific condominiums and townhomes will be eliminated for a savings of $33,000. This service is not currently offered to all condominium units within Roanoke County. • Free residential garbage disposal at the transfer station will also be eliminated. While the total cost of this program is $180,000, only a portion ($90,000) is estimated to be realized as savings due to the uncertainty of the amount of this disposal that will be picked up at the resident's home through normal refuse collection. • The department's maintenance and repairs budget was reduced by $41,000. If this deferred maintenance is not addressed in the near future, the impact will primarily felt by internal customers. Communications and Information Technology ■ Reduced software support budget by $89,750. This reduction allows the department to maintain existing contracts for FY12 -13 but eliminates any contingency funding for support services related to software. ■ Virtually all offsite training and travel has been eliminated ($21,705), impacting the ability of staff to stay current and plan ahead for technology services. ■ Contingency funding of $60,000 has been eliminated. The department will not be able to assist other departments with small projects and unanticipated repairs/replacements. ■ Funding for preventive maintenance and repairs to towers and microwave system has been reduced by $15,400. The department will have to access its capital maintenance account to make up for the reduction, reducing the amount available for the annual maintenance costs of the radio system. ■ The ECC equipment budget was reduced $15,000, resulting in less on -site inventory and potential delays in repairs while parts are being shipped. $225,D00 $208,855 N -1.a County of Roanoke FY12 -13 Budget Development Departmental Budget Reduction Summary Department Reduction Community Development $139,000 • Elimination of a Planner II position for savings of $55,225. The loss of this position will increase the time required to complete project work and day -to -day workload requirements • Elimination of Engineer position for a savings of $64,040. • Reduction in miscellaneous operating expenses Parks and Recreation $100,733 • A vacant Recreation Program Manager position was eliminated. This resulted in a reorganization of departmental duties at the Brambleton Center. This redistribution of duties will increase employee workloads. • "rhe department transferred a Recreation Programmer position from the County's General Fund to the department's self- funded Fee Class. There will be no impact to this move in terms of service levels as the position will simply be funded by fees generated in the Fee Class account. Social Services $215,000 • The state has taken over the funding for Child Care Assistance. The program still exists but the locality is no longer responsible for payments. Therefore, the workload related to this program remains but the overall result is a net savings. The reduction in revenue of approximately $2 million is offset by an equal reduction in expenditures and the local match is no longer required. Board of Supervisors $5 • Reduction taken from part -time dollars. Remaining part -time budget is sufficient for current workload; however, changes in the current business climate that result in an increased workload would stress the department's part -time budget. Clerk of the Circuit Court $7,500 • Storage and maintenance contracts for the upcoming fiscal year are anticipated to be lower due to reduction in storage costs. Commissioner of the Revenue $6,000 • Printed forms budget was reduced which could limit the flexibility and availability of various forms associated with business license renewal, business personal property tax filing, and tax relief filing. Commonwealth Attorney $2,000 • Reduction was taken in furniture and office equipment. This will have minimal impact on daily operations; however, deferred replacement could be detrimental in future budgets. County Administration (County Administrator, Assistants, and Public Information) $8,500 • Reductions were taken in various operational accounts, primarily in the areas of special events, training, and software. 61 2 N -1.a County of Roanoke FY12 -13 Budget Development Departmental Budget Reduction Summary Departme Reduction County Attorney $2,500 • The $2,500 reduction in professional services will further limit the department's ability to obtain outside counsel and hamper flexibility in responding to additional legal obligations, should they arise. Court Service Unit $5,000 • The reduction was taken out of the department's furniture budget. This will have little impact on the department's operations. Economic Development $5,500 • Reduction was taken in travel and training related to marketing activities and conference participation. This will impair the ability of the department to promote Roanoke County through networking and educational opportunities. Elections $7,500 • Reduction was taken from part-time funding. This may affect the timely processing of absentee ballots and voter registrations. Finance $35,000 • A vacant Office Support Specialist position was eliminated. This will impact the ability of the department to have someone at the front desk to greet patrons, answer the phones, and respond to departmental needs and questions promptly. The action will further shift and realign workloads, and change some processes related to surplus property. Human Resources $20,000 • Tuition reimbursement benefit will be completely eliminated. This will be an elimination of a benefit previously offered to Roanoke County employees. library $75,000 Funding for the purchase of new books and other materials was reduced. While short - term impact is minimal, in the long -term this will increase wait times for new items, decrease the amount of fines collected, and age the library's collection. The department's technology replacement budget was also reduced. This will have the potential impact of more machines out of service and increase wait times for PC use. The department also reduced a number of other miscellaneous operating expenses. Expense line items are already thin due to previous operating reductions and cost increases. Management and Budget $2,500 • Reduction was taken out of the department's technology replacement budget. This will result in minimal impact to departmental operations in the near -term. long -term equipment needs will have to be addressed during future budgets. 3 N -1.a County of Roanoke FY12 -13 Budget Development Departmental Budget Reduction Summary Department Reduction Public Transportation $75,000 ■ The CORTRAN program was reduced by $25,000. While there is no immediate impact due to this reduction, if transportation grants are reduced then the program would have to be reviewed for efficacy. Real Estate Valuation $5 • Citizens will no longer receive reassessment notifications if there is no change in value. This change will allow for a reduction in the department's postage budget. Risk Management $50 • The Occupational Nurse position contract was eliminated. In addition, the county's insurance contracts are being renegotiated for a potential savings. Sheriff $55 The department was able to reduce its water budget by $32,000 due to the utility savings resulting from replacement of all of the valves in the jail. A part-time clerical position will not be filled. This will have a minimal impact on departmental operations. All non - mandatory training and professional development programs were also eliminated. The impact of this reduction will be minimal due to the fact that mandatory training will still be offered. Treasurer $13 ■ The department reduced a number of miscellaneous operating cost line items. These items were related to collections of delinquent taxes, printed forms, etc. There is minimal impact to these reductions; however, future efforts for collection of delinquent taxes will need to be considered to optimize tax collections. VA Cooperative Extension $3 ■ The department reduced its telephone budget. There is minimal impact from this reduction. Grand Total Department Reductions FY12 -13 $1,407,088 4 N -1.b County of Roanoke, Virginia Impact of SIB 497 and Possible Salary Increases March , 2012 Work Sesso n Legislative Actions: House and Senate approved SB497 and HB 1130 on March 1, 2012 Requires that persons employed by local government and school board employers be required to pay the five percent employee contribution to the VRS. Local employers and schools boards would be required to provide Plan 1 employees with a raise to offset the employee contributions. Current Employee Croups: • Plan 1-- Employees hired before July 1, 2010 not paying the 5 employee share (815 employees). 0 Plan - Year I —Employees hired between July 1, 2010 and May 10, 2011 were hired with the understanding that there could be a change and were given a supplement semi-annually for years (2011-12 and 2012-13). Effective July 1, 2011 this group began paying the 5 % employee contribution. • Plan -Year - Employees hired after May 10, 2011 1 were hired with the knowledge that they would pay the 5 employee share. Impact of the Legislation: • Employees will have to pay Fi a and VRS premiums on the offsetting raise required by the legislation. 0 The County will also have to pay Fi a matching and VRS premiums on the offsetting raise required by the legislation. 0 All Plan 2 employees are already paying the 5 % VRS deduction so any raise provided to Plan employees will require new money.

March 1, 2012 N-1.b Joseph B. "Butch" Church Catawba Ma District Eddie "'Ed" El rick Windsor Hills Ma District Charlotle A. Moore. Cave Sprin Ma District On March 10, 2012, the General Assembl adopted HE3 1130 and SB497, which aniended nr.umerous provisions of the Vir Retirement S (V RS]. In our review of this le we have and several instances of internal. ineon SiSLencies or conflicts with odder provisions of the State Code or the proposed bud and for Roanoke Coun L sia lifficant adverse financial impacts. We hope that y ou will propose amendments to correct these problems and remove these financial impacts on us. We do not understand the basis for the re found in SB 497 which mandates local g overnments to re their emplo to pa the 5% member contribution to VRS previousl paid b the Count alon with a mandated 5% salar increase to offset this mandate. We find no benefit to either the Count or the Commonwealth from this mandate; instead it imposes additional costs on both the Count and its emplo In order to hold our emplo harmless from the pa of additional taxes., we have calculated the additional FICA pa to the federal g overnment as the result of this mandate to be 1.5% of pa or approximatel $7S3,000 f0r die Count and $1,400,000 for the Roanoke Coun� School Board. This mone could Y h a ve b een tj se,d to g ive our em p lo 1. 5 % salar in crease, b it t n ot 1 t will g o to th e Federal in the pa o FICA tax This is trul a lose-lose situ atio n Last y ear Roan ke Coun t m od i fied its pa and classi ficatio n s to re Ilan 2 emplo pa the 50/o VRS amount, while the Count continued to pa this emplo share for Plan 1 emplo We provided a salar ad to alleviate the financial impacts on Plan 2emplo who were alread an the pa and no salar ad to Plan 2 emplo hired after the effective date of our local action. Because of our prior OFFICE FAX: VOICE MAIL: E-MA U (5401 772-2005 ( 540) 772-2193 (540 777.6399 bos a roanokecou n "a. gov N -1.b I'Zi Two March 16, 01 {ic: ions, Roanoke County is already rea lizin g the savings from neiv h ires pl kiTig up th employee share of VRS. This mandate adversely affects Roanoke County since we have already begun to shift this cost to our Plan 2 employees, subject to certain conditions and adjustments. This mandate from March 1 upsets this careful balance with no benefit to either the County or th Commonwealth. The only beneficiary is the federal government through increased FI CA taxes and fees. Therefore, we urge y ou to submit an amendment that would allo%v loca lities the option of shifting the SoUrce of employee conLributions from the e mployer to the member employee. We urge you to submit are amendment that would remove the r andatory salary increase, to Q ffs t the shifting of inember contributions, The re is no inip c t on the VRS trus t t'r`111(f, It merely changes the source of the funds and not the amount of the funds. We are concerned about what -seem to be major inconsistencies be - L oen HB13 1 and H B 1130. H 1301 includes Item 468 45 which provides that contribution rates paid to VRS shall be based upon are assumed B' Yo rate of return over a 30 year amortization period. This provision seems to be in conflict with th e contribution rates included in H 113 adopt ed on March 10. The resolution of this con [lict impacts Roanoke County by are ustimated $2 mi llion, Likewise the teacher retirement rate o f 11,66 is in conflict wfth the 11OUse b hill rate of 10,23%. This financial impact is approximately $1 million for Roanoke County, In conclusion we request that your submit an amendment that would allow, but d not require, local go vernment and school hoard employer's to elect to pay the Solo employee contribution to VRS foreither - Plan 1 or Plan 2 employees, or both, Linder c nditic ns established by the lo calit ies . In addition, we reqUest that you rnodi�T 11B130i so that is still includes a reduction of VRS rates for local governments,. and continues to all the Schools a supplement from the State for their local contribution to the VRS.

Certainly the emplo of local g overnments should be treated the same as school boards staff and we commend y ou for that amendment. We re that y ou consider these additional ameiidnients.

ITEM NO. N -2 AT A REGULAR MEETING OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF ROANOKE COUNTY, VIRGINIA HELD AT THE ROANOKE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION CENTER MEETING DATE: AGENDA ITEM: SUBMITTED BY: APPROVED BY: March 27, 2012 Work session to review Roanoke County debt Rebecca Owens, Director of Finance Laurie Gearheart, Assistant Director of Finance B. Clayton Goodman III County Administrator COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR'S COMMENTS: SUMMARY OF INFORMATION: 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 debt policy helps to ensure that a government maintain a sound position and that credit quality is protected. The County does not have any Constitutional or statutory debt limits. - f he 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, 2011, 'the County's ratio was two point two two percent (2.22 %.) • 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, 2011, the net debt per capita was $2,181. • 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, 2011, the County's ratio was eight paint five one percent (8.51 %.) Page 1 of 2 The County is currently rated Aa l , 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 its 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. Staff will review the attached presentation daring the work session.

Page 1of1 P -1 PETITIONER: Western Virginia Water Authority CASE NUMBER: 2- 3/2012 Board of Supervisors Consent 1 St Reading Date: February 28, 2012 Planning Commission Hearing Date: March 6, 2012 Board of Supervisors Hearing & 2 nd Reading Date: March 27, 2012 A. REQUEST To obtain a Special Use Permit for a major utility service in an R -1, Low Density Residential, District. The major utility service involves the construction of a standpipe water tank approximately 102 feet in height on 0.51 acre, located at 4968 Northridge Lane (Tax Map Number 037.06 -01- 76.00- 0000), Catawba Magisterial District. B. CITIZEN COMMENTS Three citizens spoke regarding the petition. Mr. Jim Stroup, 7922 Sequoia Drive, expressed discontent regarding the special use permit process citing that "the facts seem to be changing" and that the balloon test scheduled for the afternoon of the public hearing was unsuccessful in demonstrating the height of the proposed tower. Mr. Keith Moore, 7921 Sequoia Drive and president of the Whitney Estates Home Owners' Association, also expressed discontent regarding the petition. Mr. Moore inquired about how the cost of purchasing a property near Green Ridge Recreation Center for a water tank would compare to building the water tank on the proposed site. He also stated that he would like assurance that the water pressure would be boosted at the top of Sequoia Drive, the existing tank to be painted to match the proposed tank and a guarantee from the School Board that the current wooded buffer would remain in place in the future. Mr. Moore also noted that the balloon test was a "failure." Ms. Wilma McMahon, 7917 Sequoia Drive, yielded her time to Mr. Keith Moore. Mr. Moore stated that the reason community meeting attendance was low was misinformation. Mr. Moore stated that Google maps did not display the address in the correct location and that using "Catawba Magisterial District" was misleading because it implies an area near Route 311. Mr. Thomas Kincaide, 7925 Sequoia Drive, had questions regarding alternative sites and the future of the existing wooded area surrounding the proposed tank site. C. SUMMARY OF COMMISSION DISCUSSION Amanda Micklow presented the staff report. Ms. Hooker began the Planning Commission discussion. She noted that there appears to be a safety issue with inadequate fire flows in the area and asked the petitioner if any other properties were considered in the process and if so, why were they deemed unsuitable. The petitioner's representative responded that they Western Virginia Water Authority (WVWA) considered a site near Green Ridge Recreation Center but due to high land costs, FAA concerns and the need for additional pipes to be installed, the site was rejected. Mr. Marrano asked how much of the need was generated by the addition of Green Ridge and Gander Mountain and noted that the residents on the other side of 581 do not have to bear the brunt of these developments. Mr. Gary Robertson, Executive Director of Water Operations, responded that if the proposed tank were to be located north of Interstate 81 or on the Northside Schools property, the necessary flow would not be able to be recreated. Mr. Jarrell spoke on the buffer requirement issue and noted that no buffer can mitigate the height of the tank, which appears to be the larger issue. Mr. Peters stated that development has occurred over the past 25 years with inadequate infrastructure and that this issue should have been addressed earlier. Mr. Marrano stated that he understands the concerns of the citizens on Sequoia Drive over the loss of their viewshed and that he would like to have seen that all site alternatives exhausted. Ms. Hooker then noted that this petition is a land use issue and the question is whether this is appropriate location for a water tank. She also cited the Fire Marshal's expressed need for additional fire flows in the area. Mr. Peters stated that they need to look at all of the property in that area available for development and that if development continues to occur, the problem will only be exacerbated. Ms. Hooker than said she was glad to hear that the WVWA considered another site but she curious about the relationship between the WVWA and the schools, citing concerns over the buffer. Mr. Radford stated that having worked on the construction of Green Ridge Recreation Center, fire flows were inadequate before its development and also noted the proximity of that site to the airport. Ms. Hooker concluded the Planning Commission's discussion by recommending approval of the petition with four conditions. She commented that this is a difficult issue and that she recognizes the burden to adjacent neighborhoods. Mr. Peters commented during the vote that this is an issue of health, safety and welfare of the community. D. CONDITIONS 1. The site shall be developed in substantial conformity with the concept plan entitled "Western Virginia Water Authority Loch Haven Tank Site" dated December 23, 2011. 2. The proposed water tank shall not exceed a height of 102 feet. 3. Screening and buffering requirements for this site shall include the existing vegetation, modified to construct the proposed water tank, and the existing fencing. 4. There shall be no signage on the water tank except for the manufacturer's or installer's identification and appropriate warning signs and placards. Page 2of3 E. COMMISSION ACTION Ms. Hooker made a motion to recommend approval of the special use permit request with four conditions. The motion carried 4 -1. F. DISSENTING PERSPECTIVE Mr. Marrano citied adverse impacts to residents closest to the proposed site for voting against the motion. G.

Martha Hoofer's district includes the north side stand pipe; Gary Jarrell's district includes the broadcast tower.] I have with me tonight Gary Robertson, Executive Director, water operations and Bob Benninger, Director, water Operations. 4968 North Ridge Lane (Catawba) The first is an application for the installation of a 102' Stand Pipe water Tank on property located at 4968 Northridge Lane near Northside High School. This is permitted by special use permit in the R.- 1 zoning area. The water Authority owns a 1 I2 acre lot there on which a 30' water tank has been in use since the late 70's. (Attachment 1.) The surrounding area was developed and subdivided in the 80's and 90's, with the nearest residences (on Sequoia Drive) developed after 1998. (Attachment 2, with 5 elevations from different approaches.) The utility issue facing the water .Authority is inadequate fire flows toward the east and specifically involving the Green Ridge Athletic Center, the Valley Point Industrial Park and Gander Mountain. In addition there is some inadequate residential water pressure at the top of Sequoia Drive. The recommended fire flow is 1,000 gallons per minute with a minimum pressure of 20 pounds per square inch ("p.s.i.") based on peals hour domestic flows for a two hour fire suppression event. The current system will provide 1,000 gallons per minute but the system pressure will drop to 10 p.s.i. The proposed Stand Pipe water Tank will allow the 1,000 gallon per minute fire flow with a system pressure of 30 p. s.i. for the 2 hour fire suppression event. The optimum water pressure for a domestic use is 50--75 p.s.i.. The water pressure at the top of Sequoia Drive is between 25 and 30 p. s.i. and 12 or so residences at the top of Sequoia need to use pumps to create adequate water flow for domestic use. We have presented a graphics of a typical Stand Pipe water Tank (Attachment 3). A balloon was flown over the location in February and earlier today at the request of interested citizens. (I have some photos from the balloon tests if any of you are interested.) Some 280 notifications were sent out by Planning Commission staff to property owners who potentially would be affected. (Attactu 4.) we held a community meeting at the Northside Diddle School on February 23 d and heard the concerns of some 12-15 citizens at that time.

The major utility service involves the construction of a standpipe water tank approximately 102 feet in height on 0.51 acre. Location: 4968 Northridge Lane Magisterial District: Catawba Suggested 1. The site shall be developed in substantial conformity with the concept plan Conditions: entitled "Western Virginia Water Authority Loch Haven Tank Site" dated December 23, 2011. 2. The proposed water tank shall not exceed a height of 102 feet. 3. Screening and buffering requirements for this site shall include the existing vegetation, modified to construct the proposed water tank, and the existing fencing. 4. There shall be no signage on the water tank except for the manufacturer's or installer's identification and appropriate warning signs and placards. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: The Western Virginia Water Authority (WVWA) is requesting a special use permit for a major utility service in order to install a 102' standpipe water tank. The primary purpose of the tank is to improve water service and fire flows in the surrounding area. Additionally, the WVWA also proposes to place a 10' side mounted antenna on the new tank as part of the WVWA 's meter replacement and automated infrastructure project. A Type E buffer is required by the use and design standards for a major utility service; however, due to the proximity of the tank to the corner of the lot, the petitioner is requesting an exemption from this requirement. This standard can be modified during the special use permit process. The proposed use meets the requirements of the Roanoke County Zoning Ordinance and is relatively consistent with the purpose of the R -1, Low Density Residential District. The proposed water tank will be visible from surrounding neighborhoods; however, the Western Virginia Water Authority stated that the primary purpose "would be to improve water service and fire flows in the neighboring area" which is not in conflict with the Neighborhood Conservation future land use designation. Sufficient fire flow is necessary for the health, safety and welfare of the community. 1. APPLICABLE REGULATIONS A major utility service is allowed only by special use permit in the R -1, Low Density Residential, District and is defined as "services of a regional nature which normally entail the construction of new buildings or structures such as generating plants and sources, electrical switching facilities and stations or substations, community waste water treatment plants, and similar facilities." The use and design standards for a major utility service are included in Section 30 -83 -11 of the Roanoke County Zoning Ordinance. Applicable standards are as follows: 1. In considering an application for a special use permit, the planning commission and board of supervisors shall consider the justification for the location of the proposed utility service and any alternative locations which may be available. 2. The minimum lot size may be reduced as part of approval of the special use permit provided all setback and yard requirements are met and all other dimensional requirements are achieved. 3. The height limitation contained in each district may be increased as part of the approval of the special use permit, subject to any other height limitation contained in the section 30 -72 and 30 -73 of this ordinance. 4. No major utility service shall be located within one hundred (100) feet of an existing residence. 5. Except in the 1 -1 and 1 -2 districts, outdoor storage of materials and equipment, except during construction of the utility facility, shall be prohibited in association with a major utility service, unless specifically requested and approved as part of the special use permit. 6. Buildings and facilities shall be designed and constructed to be compatible with the surrounding area, so that these facilities or structures will not adversely affect nearby properties. 7. Except in the 1 -1 and 1 -2 districts, Type E screening and buffering consistent with section 30 -92 of this ordinance shall be required, unless specifically modified as a part of the approved special use permit. 8. All sewer and water utility services shall be publicly owned and operated by a government agency unless otherwise recommended by the director of the utility department and approved by the board of supervisors. 9. Sewer and water utility services shall be designed with a service area and capacity consistent with the purposes of the respective zoning district and the recommendations of the community plan. 2. ANALYSIS OF EXISTING CONDITIONS Background — The Western Virginia Water Authority (WVWA) is requesting a special use permit for a major utility service in order to install a 102' standpipe water tank. The primary purpose of the tank is to improve water service and fire flows in adjacent area. Additionally, the WVWA also proposes to place a 10' side mounted antenna on the new tank as part of the WVWA's meter replacement and automated infrastructure project. The 0.51 acre subject property is owned by the WVWA. There is an existing 33' tall (54' diameter) water tank on the site that was installed in the mid- 1970s. Topography /Vegetation — The subject property slopes slightly downward to the south from an approximate elevation of 1,280 feet at the northern property line. There are existing deciduous trees near three property lines. Adjacent properties heavily wooded with mature deciduous trees and slope away from the subject property. Surrounding Neighborhood - The subject property and adjacent parcels are zoned R -1, Low Density Residential. The properties to the north and west are vacant and heavily wooded. The closest residences are on Sequoia Drive, Lanasey Drive and Amberwood Court. The Northside Schools complex is zoned R -2S, Medium Density Residential with a Special Use Permit. Northside Middle School is located approximately 350' southeast of the subject property. With regard to future land use, the subject and surrounding properties are designated as Neighborhood Conservation in the Roanoke County Comprehensive Plan. The Transition, Core and Principal Industrial future land use designations are also located within a half of a mile of the subject property near major intersections and on the eastern side of Interstate 581. 2 3. ANALYSIS OF PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT Site Layout /Architecture — The applicant proposes to install a 102' tall standpipe water tank with a 30' diameter on the southeastern portion of the property in addition to the existing tank. The proposed tank will be setback 25' from the southern and eastern property lines near the limits of the existing tree line. The water tank is available in five colors including cobalt blue, sky blue, tan, forest green and white. The WVWA recommends a "sky blue color as the tank will be seen from lower elevations against the backdrop of the sky." The tank will not be lighted. A Type E buffer is required by the use and design standards for a major utility service; however, due to the proximity of the tank to the corner of the lot, the petitioner is requesting an exemption from this standard. Access /Traffic Circulation — The property is accessed through the Northside Schools complex using an access road that runs behind the middle school. VDOT had no comments on the request. Fire & Rescue /Utilities — The Roanoke County Fire Marshal's office reviewed the application and noted "the addition of the water tank to the water system will greatly improve the fire flow needs for all existing and proposed structures in the future. The improvements are very much needed in the area and the Roanoke County Fire Marshal's Office has no objection to the proposal." There should be no impact on solid waste. Community Input — A community meeting was held at Northside Middle School on February 23, 2012. Two hundred and eighty community meeting notices were mailed to property owners. Ten citizens were in attendance. Citizen questions and comments centered on the visual impact to residents on Sequoia Drive. Those in attendance asked what alternative sites were considered and how this was related to the development of the Green Ridge Recreation Center and development on Plantation Road. The WVWA indicated that no other sites had been considered as alternatives. Staff also received twelve phone calls regarding the petition. The majority of callers requested more information about the special use permit request, one inquired about the impact to the adjacent athletic fields, two wanted to "lend support" for the petition and one was from the president of the Home Owner's Association on Sequoia Drive concerned with the "cost /benefit" ratio. 4. CONFORMANCE WITH ROANOKE COUNTY COMPREHENSIVE PLAN The property is designated Neighborhood Conservation in the Roanoke County Community Plan. This is a future land use area where established single - family neighborhoods are delineated and the conservation of the existing development pattern is encouraged. Land use types include single - family residential, neighborhood institutional centers and neighborhood commercial. Public utilities are also briefly discussed in Chapter 4: Community Facilities. 5. STAFF CONCLUSIONS The Western Virginia Water Authority is requesting a special use permit to install a 102' tall standpipe water tank on 4968 Northridge Lane in the Catawba magisterial district. The proposed use meets the requirements of the Roanoke County Zoning Ordinance and is relatively consistent with the purpose of the R -1, Low Density Residential District. The proposed water tank will be visible from surrounding neighborhoods; however, the Western Virginia Water Authority stated that the primary purpose "would be to improve water service and fire flows in the neighboring area" which is not in conflict with Neighborhood Conservation future land use designation. Sufficient fire flow is necessary for the health, safety and welfare of the community. Suggested conditions include: 1. The site shall be developed in substantial conformity with the concept plan entitled "Western Virginia Water Authority Loch Haven Tank Site" dated December 23, 2011. 2. The proposed water tank shall not exceed a height of 102 feet. 3. Screening and buffering requirements for this site shall include the existing vegetation, modified to construct the proposed water tank, and the existing fencing. 4. There shall be no signage on the water tank except for the manufacturer's or installer's identification and appropriate warning signs and placards. CASE NUMBER: 2- 312012 PREPARED BY: Amanda C.

The applicant is asking for credit for existing vegetation and will supplement existing vegetation on three sides to fulfill the option to 50 -foot buffer and for every 100 feet will plant one row of large deciduous trees, one row of small evergreen trees and one row of small deciduous trees with six -foot screening. The proposed water tank would be installed in addition to the 40 -foot ground level water tank currently on the property. The 40' existing tank will be retained to maintain water pressure in its current distribution zone. The height of the proposed water tank is 102 feet and a 10 -foot antenna would be attached. This use is compatible with residential development in the area. It is anticipated by the western Virginia water Authority that the neighboring properties would welcome the new water tank because of the increased water pressure that would be available from its installation. The proposed water tank would serve a dual purpose for the western Virginia water Authority. The primary purpose would be to improve water service and fire flows in the neighboring area. The water Authority also proposes to place a 10 -foot antenna on the new tank which would be used in the water Authority's meter replacement and automated meter infrastructure pro* ect proposed to be installed in the City of Roanoke and in Roanoke County. (continued from "..usage data") in the most efficient manner. This property is one of the locations. The new tank will improve water pressure and fire flows in the area.

(A) The R -1, low density residential district is established for areas of the county within the urban service area with existing low - middle density residential development, with an average density of from one (1) to three (3) units per acre, and land which appears appropriate for such development. These areas are generally consistent with the neighborhood conservation land use category as recommended in the comprehensive plan. In addition, where surrounding development and the level of public services warrant, these areas coincide with the development category recommended in the plan. This district is intended to provide the highest degree of protection from potentially incompatible uses and residential development of a significantly different density, size, or scale, in order to maintain the health, safety, appearance and overall quality of life of existing and future neighborhoods. In addition to single - family residences, only uses of a community nature which are generally deemed compatible are permitted in this district. This would include parks and playgrounds, schools and other similar neighborhood activities. (Ord. No. 042799 -11, § 1f., 4- 27 -99; Ord.

Page of P -2 PETITIONER: WVWA Broadcast Tower CASE NUMBER: 9- 6/2012 Board of Supervisors Consent 1 St Reading Date: February 28, 2012 Planning Commission Hearing Date: March 6, 2012 Board of Supervisors Hearing & 2 nd Reading Date: March 27, 2012 A. REQUEST To obtain a Special Use Permit for a broadcasting tower approximately 120 feet in height in an AG -3, Agricultural /Rural Preserve, District on 0.121 acre, located at 2857 Summit Ridge Road (Tax Map Number 039.00 -01- 08.01- 0000), Hollins Magisterial District. B. CITIZEN COMMENTS Five citizens spoke at the hearing. Roger Holnback, Ron Crawford, William Gordge, George Kegley, and Linda VanLuik all spoke in opposition of the petition. Their comments, concerns and questions included: the Read Mountain Alliance process; alternative sites need to be explored; the need to preserve this pristine mountain; can a few smaller towers cover this area; cost to the public if approved; precedent for additional towers locating on or near Read Mountain; and the possibility of co- locating on cell towers since cell phone coverage is good in the area. Two of the citizens who spoke also provided handouts to the Commission which included photographs. C. SUMMARY OF COMMISSION DISCUSSION Tara Pattisall presented the staff report. Sam Darby, legal counsel for the petitioner, discussed the site plan and reasons for obtaining this special use permit. Mr. Jarrell asked about the potential color and Mr. Darby replied that the WVWA is considering using weathered steel. Mr. Marrano asked if the WVWA didn't own this property where would it place its tower instead. Mr. Darby replied that this tower is part of a complex plan of antennas and one cannot be moved without altering all the other locations. Mr. Marrano asked if Coyner Mountain in Botetourt County had been considered as a potential location. Gary Robertson, of WVWA, replied that Coyner Mountain did not provide adequate coverage for the area. Mr. Marrano asked about the broadcast tower pre- submission meeting requirement. Ms. Pattisall replied that all pre- submission requirements had been met. Mr. Jarrell asked about the use of other towers in the area. Ms. Pattisall responded that the frequency of the WVWA towers are different from cellular towers and thus cannot be co- located together. Mr. Jarrell asked about the accuracy of the drawing Mr. Crawford provided. Ms. Pattisall stated that she could not speak to the scale of the drawing since she didn't draw it herself, but that it appeared to be inaccurate based on the height observed at the balloon test and also the size of the pole appeared to be much too large based on the provided specifications. Mr. Marrano asked about placing the antenna on the existing 15' water storage tank. Mr. Robertson responded that there would not be adequate transmission from that location. Mr. Marrano asked again about the Coyner Mountain location and Mr. Robertson responded with a letter from its contractor detailing the rejection of that location. D. CONDITIONS 1. The proposed development shall be in substantial conformance with the concept plan entitled "Western Virginia Water Authority Summit Ridge Site" dated December 23, 2011. 2. The proposed tower shall not exceed a total height of 120'. 3. No lighting shall be allowed on the broadcast tower unless required by the Federal Aviation Administration. 4. The width of the broadcasting tower at the top (120 feet) shall not exceed 6.5 inches in diameter. E. COMMISSION ACTION Mr. Jarrell made a motion to recommend approval of the petition with the three suggested conditions by staff plus a fourth condition limiting the width of the broadcasting tower at the top to 6.5 inches in diameter. The motion passed 5 -0. F. DISSENTING PERSPECTIVE None. G.

It appears from the application that the tower will be approximately 2.65 miles from the Blue Ridge Parkway. The park does not feel that installation of the 120' monopole tower will have an adverse effect on the viewshed of the Blue Ridge Parkway if the tower remains unlighted. The tower should have both a landform and vegetative backdrop reducing its visibility by not being "skylined ". If you have any questions please do not hesitate to call myself or Dawn Godwin.

The Roanoke Valley Preservation Foundation (RVIPIF) does not support this application. In 2009, the RVPF recognized the efforts of Ron Crawford and the Read Mountain Alliance for their stewardship of Read Mountain with a Preservation Award. To date the Alliance has protected approximately 320 acres of Read Mountain and is preparing to negotiate for an additional 100 acres. However, much of Read Mountain is still unprotected and vulnerable to insensitive development. By adoption of the 2005 Comprehensive Plan the Board of Supervisor's acknowledged the subject property and the surrounding area as having particular environmental sensitivity. According to the Comprehensive Plan, areas designated for conservation have `unique and important natural, agricultural, historical, and cultural resources that deserve to have the highest level of protection.' The report prepared by County staff even states that the proposed broadcasting tower does not strictly conform to the Conservation standards.' The approval of this application would set a precedent for similar applications in the future, compromising the work accomplished by the Alliance and security afforded to all areas designated by the County for Conservation. If this application is approved, however, the RVPF requests that the conditions proposed by staff be amended as follows. 1. Restrict the height of the tower to the minimum necessary to clear the tree canopy (suggested condition no. 2 would allow the tower to extend above the existing tree canopy by an excessive 45 f e et) ; 2. Camouflage the tower in a dark, neutral color such as brown; and 3. Limit the number of antennas to one. Thank you for your consideration of our comments. Sincerely, Alison S. Blanton, President Roanoke Valley Preservation Foundation P. O.

From my house I probably will not notice that pole the water authority wants to put on Read Mountain. However, the Read Mountain Alliance has worked hard to keep our mountain tower free and I am proud that when people that live in the valley or are driving along 1--581 look toward Read Mountain's ridge line they see a mountain and not towers. Surely that is worth preserving when every other ridge line is already spoiled. We're not getting any new mountains, you know.

Martha Hooker's district includes the north side stand pipe; Clary Jarrell's district includes the broadcast tower.] I have with me tonight Cary Rob erts on, Executive Director, water operations and Bob Benninger, Director, water Operations. 2857 Summit Ridge Road (Hollins) The water .Authority is in the process of switching out some 58,000 water meters to improve its efficiency, reduce water line loss and permit the electronic transmission of water usage data. It has contracted with Honeywell, a major utility company, for an approximate $30M upgrade, a critical portion of which involves the location of 10 communication antennas throughout the Roanoke valley. The water Authority will install high - energy water pumping systems at pump stations and treatment plants that reduce energy consumption. It expects to reduce its electricity use by nearly SM kilowatt hours annually and as a result reduce its carbon dioxide emissions by 8.8M pounds per year. This - would be the equivalent of removing more than 780 cars from the road per year. The placement of the antennas is quite 'Interesting from a technical point of view. The Honeywell subcontractor charged with installing the antennas has done 10 separate computer analyses known. as Propagation Studies. In addition to the accuracy of the wireless communication, the water .Authority will have much more up - to - date information on water usage, will be able to read meters a minimum of every 4 hours of the day and will be able to produce much more accurate and timely bills, In V addition, the water Authority will be able to monitor leakages and 'warn customers of water leakages much sooner than it is currently able to do. As you may know, the water Authority reads meters every 2 months and estimates usage in the intervening month, The Propagation Study began with 62 potential locations for antennas throughout the Roanoke valley and after eliminating, revisioning and reanalyzing has identified 10 locations which are shown on the attached handout. (Attachment 5.) The Broadcast Tower on Reed Mountain is much more essential to the efficiency of the overall propagation network. Attachment 6 is a Site Plan of the Broadcast Tower lot.

I am not in favor of the tower being added to the other eye sore that is already there. We have been a residence of this mountain for 16 years and find it beautiful in all seasons of the year. In the winter the only unnatural structure on the mountain other than the dwellings is the water tank. We on the mountain pride ourselves in the up keep of our property and we work at keeping the area as natural as possible. Some of us do not even have lawns. When new neighbors move in, the one thing that they love is the rustic natural scenery. We were very happy that the Read Mountain Alliance was developing a park on top of the mountain to be used by everyone. The land was donated and at present the park is being maintained &expanded. The water department wants to install a radio tower inside the water tank property. The tower will be used to read meters. The cost of the tower was said to be $49,000. I was never told what the cost per meter would be. This is only a small part of a larger plan on meters reading. It was stated the overall cost will be $3,000,000. It was also stated that the company that is installing this system estimates a payback period of 12 years. It was not stated if these figures were accurate or even checked by a non bias group. In the 12 years of the payback period, who will pay for the towers and meter reading? I suspect the rest of the residents of Roanoke County will have to pay for it. We were /5/12 letter to water and roa times I, as well as the other neighbors on Read Mountain,, am requesting to put the tower in someone else's front yard. Maybe the people that made this decision would like to have it in their front yard. This way they can enjoy the beauty and benefits of ameter- reading tower.

Young children, elderly couples, whole families and individuals all from the Read Mountain Alliance nixed with media representative5 and politicians to scale the muddy mountain to raise money for the alliance so it can directly purch(rse parts of the mountain. Over a year ago, the Read N °.fountain .Alliance was owned in an effort to con- serve the mountain top that overlooks B otetourt and the Roanokes. The goal of the alliance, according to founder Ron Crawford, is to purchase between Soo and 600 acres on top of the mountain to be set aside as a public reserve. The reserve will include hiking, biking and horse trails, over- looks and picnic areas for the public to enjoy. Trails may eventually be tied into the Roanoke Valley Greenwwray hiking trail system.

Sunday was the first effort to raise money for the pur- chase. "our goal was $10,000 Herald PhotoMiliam Li ;t.e and we surpassed that. We raised $10,332.50 and proba- bly some more will trickle ill later. For a rainy day, that's not too bad," said Crawford. After getting spores or hik- ers met at B onsack Mementary at 2 p.m. Sunday. From there, groups were bused to a hiking trail on the Roanoke County side of the mountain. Hikers had a halt`` mile hike up the mountain, and then a 2.5, mile hike down the mountain, ending back at Bonsack Elementary. Along the way, hikers passed "trail marshals, " or volunteers who helped point the way on the well- marked trail. Nfarshals handed out band -aids, bottles of water and granola. bars.. Hikers ranged from the experienced to people really snaking an effort to cross the mountain. °ongressnian Bob Goodlatte, (R-6th District -- ) and S tate See.

Read Mountain is approximatel 3 miles lon I mile wide and 2 )50 feet hi Until now the mountain has remained undeveloped, however, the risin tide of urban development is sweepin across the valle at an acceleratin pace, and this mountain island will not remain untouched indefinitel The loss of Read Mountain to development will happen unless steps are taken to protect it now. In response to this need the Read Mountain Alliance, a dedicated g roup of Roanoke Valle r 'dents has initiated plannin plannin effort to protect Read Mountain. This citizen initiative has re sidents included historical research, mappin landowner contacts, trail construction, fund raisin and public outreach. Their effort is driven b the underlyin principle that the preservation of Read Mountain is a critical q ualit y of life issue in the Roanoke Valle with both local and re importance. Like most in the Roanoke Valle fore this mountain is privatel owned. The most important areas of Read Mountain are owned b four landowners. One of these tracts, 90 acres, has been placed under a conservation easement. Two other tracts, 230 and 70 acres, are currentl for sale. The fourth tract, thou important, is not likel to be developed soon and will be addressed in the future. This pro will be focused on the ac of a part of the 23 0- acre parcel that is for sale. Mr. John Davy Division Director, Planning and Recreation Resources Page Two April 15, 2004 On April 13, 2004, The Roanoke County Board of Supervisors adopted a resolution authorizing this project and affirming the county's commitment to the preservation of Read Mountain, a valuable community resource. The County's ultimate goal is the creation of a Soo to 600 acre park/preserve on the upper slopes and ridgelines of this critical viewshed in accord with the Virginia outdoors Plan. we anticipate having the ability to purchase approximately 150 acres with this grant. This grant is a critical impetus for the preservation of this unique urban forest in Roanoke County, Having hiked the trails myself, and seen the breathtaking views of the surrounding area from its summit, I can attest to Read Mountain's value firsthand. The mountain's use as a parr and natural viewshed fulfills many needs as identified in our Community Plan and the Regional Roanoke valley open Space Plan as well as meeting the objectives of the Virginia outdoors Plan and this grant program. The nature of this citizen - driven initiative is important to its success. On behalf of the citizens of Roanoke County, I would like to thank you for your consideration. Sincerely, Elmer C.

United States Department of the Interior W REPLY REFER TO L14 April 5, 2004 NATIONAL PARK SERVICE Blue Ridge Parkway 199 Hemphill Knob Road Asheville, North Carolina 28803 John Davy, Division Director Planning & Recreation Resources Virginia Department of Conservation and Recreation 203 Governor Street, Suite 325 Richmond, Virginia 23219.2010 Dear Mr. Davy: The 28-mile section of the Blue Ridge Parkway through Roanoke County dips down off mountain ridges and into the farming, pastoral landscape of the Roanoke Valley. Completed in the early 1960s, the Parkway through Roanoke County presented visitors with unspoiled rural landscapes and forested mountain slopes. There are picturesque stone arch bridges and spur and loop roads that offer spectacular views. Unfortunately, much of the growth in Roanoke County since 1950 has been along major roads within view of the Parkway. once rural farm scenes now feature sprawling suburban residential developments and the demands for housing are placing tremendous pressure on the remaining undeveloped land. For all of these reasons, in 2003 this section of the Parkway through Roanoke County was designated as a Last Chance Landscape by Scenic America. One of the most critical views from the Parkway in Roanoke County is of Read Mountain. Although commercial development has occurred at the foot of the mountain and residential development has crept up the sides, the upper slopes and ridgelines remain untouched and provide a beautiful, restful backdrop. The Blue Ridge Parkway has worked for the past nine years with Roanoke County to preserve and protect the remaining unspoiled Parkway views and to mitigate the damage done at others. we are, therefore, pleased to support the efforts of Roanoke County to obtain grant funds to purchase a critical property along the ridgeline of Read Mountain. If successful, this acquisition would forever protect a large section of the ridgeline of Read Mountain and add to the area already protected by conservation easement. Visitors to the Blue Ridge Parkway spend billions of dollars to travel this scenic All - American Road and enjoy the rich patchwork of natural and cultural resources free from the commercial traffic and congestion of high -speed highways. Intentionally obscured from the visitor is the fact that the Parkway averages little more than Soo feet in width along its 459 miles of road. Most of the land viewed from the Parkway is privately held. For this reason, the Blue Ridge Parkway supports local efforts to preserve and protect these private lands that provide the critical landscape enjoyed by Park visitors. Sincerely, r Dan Brown Superintendent Bill Gordge Executive Cormmittee Member Read Mountain Alliance 3130 Evergreen La. SCI Roanoke, 'ETA 24015 Dear Bill, i am writing to let you know that the Appalachian Trail Conference endorses. and supports the work the Read Mountain Alliance is undertaking to preserve Read Mountain in Roanoke County, Virginia. Read Mountain is not only important to the citizens and community surrounding the City of Roanoke, but it is also important to the Appalachian Trail Conference and the Appalachian Trail (A.T.). Although this area is outside of the acceptable Corridor for protection or acquisition by our federal agency partners, it remains a critical visual resource to the A.T. In fact, the view from the A.T. as it traverses across from the I -81 corridor and up onto the slopes of Fulhardt Knob, looks directly at Read Mountain. This is. the - dominant aspect of the view from the AT and encroachment or development on Read Mountain would certainly detract from the natural setting, and negatively effect the A.T. and the Trail experience. Therefore, protecting this valuable aesthetic and visual . resburce is critical to the protection of the Trail Experience. Furthermore, protecting Read Mountain would provide an extensive green corridor around the City of Roanoke, linking AT protected lands, Read Mountain, and the larger natural corridor associated with the Blue Ridge Parkway. This is an invaluable resource to the community of Roanoke, and the natural habitats and animal populations in the area. We commend your work and the work of the Read mountain Alliance to protect this incredibly important resource. If we can be of further assistance, please let me know.

Read Mountain is a natural, aesthetic and recreational resource that must be preserved for present and future generations. This historic, natural landmark forms an important backdrop to the daily lives of many Roanoke Valley citizens and, indeed, is a gateway to the Valley. The mountain's tree cover enhances the Valley's air quality and its watershed adds significantly to the , Water quality of Glade and Tinker Creeks and the Roanoke River Basin. The proposed preserve would provide a wildlife habitat, create recreational opportunities and preserve the natural beauty of Read Mountain for many years to come.

The mountain is fun to hike on, have great picnics on and enjoy the view from. If houses are built on the mountain there will be erosion.

Cam- Rem- The western Virginia water authority is proposing a broadcast tower on Read Mountain. I am not in favor of the tower being added to the other eye sore that is already there. We have been a residence of this mountain for 16 years and find it beautiful in all seasons of the year. In the winter the only unnatural structure on the mountain other than the dwellings is the water tank. We on the mountain pride ourselves in the up keep of our property and we work at keeping the area as natural as possible. Some of us do not even have lawns. When new neighbors move in, the one thing that they love is the rustic natural scenery. We were very happy that the Read Mountain Alliance was developing a park on top of the mountain to be used by everyone. The land was donated and at present the park is being maintained &expanded. The water department wants to install a radio tower inside the water tank property. The tower will be used to read meters. The cost of the tower was said to be $49,000. I was never told what the cost per meter would be. This is only a small part of a larger plan on meters reading. It was stated the overall cost will be $3,000,000. It was also stated that the company that is installing this system estimates a payback period of 12 years. It was not stated if these figures were accurate or even checked by a non bias group. In the 12 years of the payback period, who will pay for the towers and meter reading? I suspect the rest of the residents of Roanoke County will have to pay for it. We were told at the first meeting that other ridges and mountains were involved (Fort Lewis, 12 O'clock Knob, Mill Mountain, Penn Forest, South County of 220 and Hollin's mountain). If you will take the time to look at our ridges around the Roanoke Valley you will see every ridge and mountain has towers except Read Mountain. The footprint of "progress" is stomping out the beauty of the Roanoke valley. I, as well as the other neighbors on Read mountain, am requesting to put the tower in someone else's front yard. Maybe the people that made this decision would like to have it in their front yard. This way they can enjoy the beauty and benefits of ameter- reading tower. Thankyou Bev Long 2858 Summit Ridge Road Roanoke, Virginia 24012 STAFF REPORT Petitioner: Request: Location: Magisterial Districts: Suggested Conditions: EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: Western Virginia Water Authority Special Use Permit for Broadcasting Tower 2857 Summit Ridge Road Hollins 1. The proposed development shall be in substantial conformance with the concept plan entitled "Western Virginia Water Authority Summit Ridge Site" dated December 23, 2011. 2. The proposed tower shall not exceed a total height of 120'. 3. No lighting shall be allowed on the broadcast tower unless required by the Federal Aviation Administration. The Western Virginia Water Authority (WVWA) is requesting a Special Use Permit for a broadcasting tower located at 2857 Summit Ridge Road. The request is to allow for the WVWA to construct a 120' monopole tower with a 10' antenna on a 0.121 acre parcel zoned Agricultural /Rural Preserve District (AG -3) in the Hollins Magisterial District. The 2005 Comprehensive Plan indicates that the Future Land Use Designation of this parcel is Conservation. Conservation is a future land use area of particular environmental sensitivity due to topography, existence of unique land characteristics, conservation /open space /greenway easements, soil types or location with respect to other State or Federally preserved lands. Typical resources would include wetlands, ridgelines, mountainsides, scenic views from the Blue Ridge Parkway and Appalachian Trail, identified greenway corridors, productive agricultural lands, historical and cultural resources and threatened or endangered species habitats. 1. APPLICABLE REGULATIONS Broadcasting towers are allowed by special use permit in the Agricultural /Rural Preserve District, and are defined as follows: Any structure that is designed and constructed primarily for the purpose of supporting one (1) or more antennas. The term includes but need not be limited to radio and television transmission towers, microwave towers, common - carrier towers, and cellular telephone and wireless communication towers. Broadcasting tower types include, but are not limited to monopoles, lattice towers, wooden poles, and guyed towers. Excluded from this definition are amateur radio towers, which are described separately. Use and Design Standards for broadcast towers are defined in Section 30 -87 -2 of the Roanoke County Zoning Ordinance. Construction of the tower will require permitting and review through the Roanoke County Department of Community Development. 2. ANALYSIS OF EXISTING CONDITIONS Background —The property is currently owned by the Western Virginia Water Authority (WVWA) and an existing 15' tall water storage tank is also located on this site. The WVWA is currently undergoing an upgrade of its entire communication system throughout the Roanoke area requiring 9 -10 new antennas. Topography /Vegetation — The property increases in elevation nearly 200' up the sloping hillside of Read Mountain. The proposed elevation of the broadcast tower is 1800' while the slope behind it rises to 2060' (130' from the ridge) and the ridgeline view should not be affected. The site is located well above all of the surrounding houses. The site and surrounding hillside is currently wooded with a canopy height of up to 75'. Surroundin Nei ghborhood — All surrounding properties are zoned R -1 and have a Future Land Use Designation of Neighborhood Conservation. The site is accessed via a gravel road off of Summit Ridge Road, but is not part of the residential development. 3. ANALYSIS OF PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT Site Layout/Architecture — There is currently a graded, fenced in area where the water tank is situated. The proposal is to use this same area for the tower and no grading or site work is anticipated. Tower lype — The proposed tower is a 120' monopole with a 10' antenna on top. It will have a matte surface as required by County regulation. Section 30- 87 -2(D)9 of the Roanoke County Zoning Ordinance states: A monopole broadcasting tower design is recommended. The board may approve an alternative broadcasting tower design if it finds that an alternative type of structure has less of a visual impact on the surrounding community and Roanoke County, and /or based upon accepted technical and engineering data a monopole design is not technically feasible. Cost shall not be a criteria for determining broadcasting tower design. The tower is not required by the FAA to have warning lights. Therefore, it will not have any lighting. The tower will be constructed with galvanized steel, its color will be a dull matte blue /gray in color to minimize visual impacts. Colocation — As part of the broadcasting tower requirements, the applicant must evaluate colocation possibilities with existing towers in order to preclude the construction of a new tower. As a part of this project, WVWA has evaluated over 60 sites throughout Roanoke City and County. Its goal is to provide faster, more efficient transmittal of its data for the purpose of both billing and also for emergency situations such as leaks. They determined 9 -10 antennas would be needed for sufficient coverage throughout the area and all but this specific one were able to be colocated. The tower is not intended for any sort of commercial purpose. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) —The location and size of the proposed tower does not exceed the FAA notice criteria. As such, additional coordination with the FAA relevant to the construction of this tower is not required. Access /Traffic Circulation —VDOT had no comments on the petition. Fire & Rescue /Utilities — The proposed use will not result in additional impacts for fire and rescue. Additionally, the Roanoke County Fire Marshal's Office does not view the tower as a building, therefore the fire flow requirements do not apply for this project. Economic Development — The Roanoke Department of Economic Development offers no objections to the 0, proposed rezoning assuming the development conforms to the Community Plan and is compatible with the surrounding land use. Greenways /Western Virginia Land Trust — In 2002, an 89.82 acre parcel adjacent to the subject property was put into a conservation easement through Western Virginia Land Trust as part of the Read Mountain conservation effort. At this time, several restrictions to the future development of the property were put into place, including: No permanent or temporary building or structure, including, without limitation, communication towers, shall be built or maintained on the Property other than non - residential outbuildings commonly and appropriately incidental to the use of the property as a public park should same be conveyed to Roanoke County or other governmental unit for such purpose. No building or structure shall be constructed within 100' in elevation from the visible ridge line. Si na e — No signage is proposed for the tower aside from those pertaining to human safety as required by the FCC. Community Meeting. A community meeting was held on February 15th at Bonsack Elementary School to discuss this project with the citizens. Eighteen citizens attended and representatives from the County and WVWA present to answer questions about the project. After County staff explained the SUP process and gave a basic overview of the project, representatives of WVWA gave a presentation explaining the upgrade of their entire communication system throughout the area and answered citizen questions and concerns. Many of the adjacent property owners were unconcerned with the tower after seeing the presentation which included photographs of the height of the tower during a previous balloon test. Questions about whether or not collocation options were evaluated were asked. The WVWA staff indicated that collocation had been a viable option for all of the project area except for this particular one. Staff representatives of the Roanoke Greenways Commission and Western Virginia Land Trust then asked about the Read Mountain preserve conservation easement and if that had been a factor in selecting the site. The representatives for WVWA were not aware of any easement on the property and requested a copy of it. There was a long discussion over the proposed color of the tower and WVWA staff were open to ideas from the citizens. WVWA staff also asked citizens if they would like to see photos from their particular addresses during another balloon test and offered to provide them. 4. CONFORMANCE WITH ROANOKE COUNTY COMPREHENSIVE PLAN The 2005 Comprehensive Plan indicates that the Future Land Use Designation of these parcels Conservation. Conservation is a future land use area of particular environmental sensitivity due to topography, existence of unique land characteristics, conservation /open space /greenway easements, soil types or location with respect to other State or Federally preserved lands. Typical resources would include wetlands, ridgelines, mountainsides, scenic views from the Blue Ridge Parkway and Appalachian Trail, identified greenway corridors, productive agricultural lands, historical and cultural resources and threatened or endangered species habitats. Although the proposed broadcasting tower does not strictly conform to the stated objective of the Conservation designation, its construction is proposed for a location with an existing road and water storage tank. Additionally, the proposed tower is to be constructed well below the Read Mountain ridgeline so as not affect its view. 3 5. STAFF CONCLUSIONS The WVWA is requesting a Special Use Permit for a broadcasting tower located at 2857 Summit Ridge Road. The request is to allow for the WVWA to construct a 120' monopole tower with a 10' antenna on a 0.121 acre parcel zoned AG -3. The proposed development conforms to all of the existing AG -3 development regulations although does not strictly conform to the Conservation standards. If the commission choses to approve this request, staff recommends the following conditions: 1. The proposed development shall be in substantial conformance with the concept plan entitled "Western Virginia Water Authority Summit Ridge Site" dated December 23, 2011. 2. The proposed tower shall not exceed a total height of 120'. 3. No lighting shall be allowed on the broadcast tower unless required by the Federal Aviation Administration. Additional conditions could include the color of the broadcasting tower and limiting the number of antennas on the broadcasting tower.

Please answer the following questions as thoroughly as possible. Use additional space if necessary. Please explain how the request furthers the purposes of the Roanoke County ordinance as well as the purpose found at the beginning of the applicable zoning district classification in the Zoning ordinance. The proposal to set a broadcast tower on .the Authority's property at 2857 Summit Ridge will provide necessary efficiencies to the water utilities while at the same time minimizing the impact of the broadcast tower on the neighboring residential community. The western Virginia Water Authority will comply with all setback requirements and in addition the broadcast tower will be set among existing vegetation for reduction in its visibility and intrusion into the down - slope residential community along Summit Ridge Road and Coachman Drive. The broadcast tower will be 245' and 355' from the nearest two structures. The broadcast tower is not within 2 miles of the Roanoke Regional Airport, so 30- 87 -2D.6 does not apply. we contacted the FAA anyway, and learned that there would be no issue since it is under 200' and not in a flight approach path. Please explain how the project conforms to the general guidelines and policies contain_ ed in the Roanoke County Community Plan. The water Authority has contracted with Honeywell, Inc. for the design of the proposed project and as part of the project; Honeywell, Inc. has conducted a propagation study in which it has analyzed the most efficient system for transmitting water usage data from wireless meters to a centralized billing system. The propagation study initially identified 62 potential locations in Roanoke City and in Roanoke County in order to provide the coverage necessary for the overall transmission system. The water Authority, working in collaboration with Honeywell, Inc., has narrowed the number of antennas down to 9 or 10, all but one of which will be placed on existing or planned water tanks. As a result of the propagation stud, the water Authority is seeking to install the fewest number of antennas to transmit that water usage data in the most efficient manner. This property is one of the locations. The new tank will improve water pressure and - fire flows in the area. Please describe the impacts) of the request on the property itself, the adjoining properties, and the surrounding area, as well as the impacts on public services and facilities, including water /sewer, roads, schools, parks /recreation and fire and rescue. While the broadcast tower will be visible from several of the down -slope residences, it is not going to be intrusive as it will be set among the trees and existing vegetation and the benefits of efficient delivery of water service including accurate and efficient billing will outweigh any concern due to visibility. One additional benefit is that the transmission of water meter data will be nearly instantaneous and the Water Authority will know within a very short amount of time whether or not a leak has developed in any of the individual resident's water systems and will be able to notify residents and save losses for unusually large amounts of water use caused by leaks. The elevation of the broadcast tower is 1800' while the slope behind it rises to 2060', so the ridgeline view should be protected. 3 Applicant Western Vir inia Water Authori t -CONCEPT PLAN CHECKLIST A c ancept p [an of th e p ropos d praject m, us( be s iibmi tted w ith the appi ication.

Sec. 30 -32 -1. - Purpose. (A) The AG -3, agricultural /rural preserve district consists of land primarily used as farmland, woodlands, and widely scattered residential development located within the rural service area. Also found in these areas are lands with steep slopes, and groundwater recharge areas. Many of the county's unique natural and scenic resources are found in this district. The purpose of this district is to maintain these areas essentially in their rural state, and attempt to protect sensitive and unique land resources from degradation as recommended in the rural preserve land use category of the comprehensive plan. This may be accomplished by maintaining the existing agricultural lands and preventing the encroachment of incompatible land uses. Non -farm residents should recognize that they are located in an agricultural environment where the right -to -farm has been established as county policy. This district is also intended to minimize the demand for unanticipated public improvements and services, such as public sewer and water, by reducing development densities and discouraging large scale development.

No. 62293 -12, § 10, 6- 22 -93) Sec. 30 -87 -2. - Broadcasting Tower. (A) Intent: The intent of these provisions is to regulate the placement of new and replacement broadcasting towers within Roanoke County. These provisions provide broadcasting tower applicants, property owners, and all other Roanoke County citizens clear guidance on the official policies and standards of the County. These policies and standards shall be used by applicants as a guide when selecting alternative broadcasting tower sites and broadcasting tower designs within the county. In addition, the county staff, planning commission and board of supervisors shall use these policies and standards, the Roanoke County community plan and the general special use permit criteria found in section 30 -19 as a guide for evaluating any future requests for broadcasting towers. In the interest of preserving and enhancing the scenic and natural beauty of Roanoke County it is the goal of the county to achieve a long term reduction in the number of broadcasting towers within the county, and where possible, to achieve a reduction in the height of existing broadcasting towers throughout the county, with special emphasis on towers located along or near the ridgetops of major mountains and land forms. In addition, it is the goal of the county, where possible, to achieve the relocation of existing broadcasting towers and associated utility and access corridors which have a high visual impact on scenic resources. To this end, the county will work cooperatively with broadcasting tower owners and applicants and land owners to achieve these goals. It is the official policy of the county to encourage and promote the collocation of antennas on existing public and private structures within the county. To achieve this end, the county encourages all wireless communication providers to locate new antennas on existing structures. Permits for new broadcasting towers should only be requested when no other reasonable alternative exists for locating needed antennas. When new broadcasting towers are proposed as a last alternative, the requested broadcasting tower location, height and design should be chosen to protect and enhance the scenic and natural beauty of Roanoke County. Broadcasting tower locations at elevations lower than surrounding ridge lines are preferred. The use of stealth designs should be considered for any new broadcasting tower. It is the intent of the county to fully comply with all of the applicable provisions of the federal Telecommunications Act of 1996 and other applicable federal and state laws as said laws address and preserve Roanoke County's zoning authority and provide to the communication industry the right and responsibility to provide communication services within their service areas. (B) Applicability: 1. These standards shall apply to all new and replacement broadcasting towers within Roanoke County with the exception that new and replacement broadcasting towers and associated antenna not exceeding thirty (30) feet in height and located within any commercial or industrial zoning district shall be permitted by right provided: a. The proposed tower is a monopole type design; b. The general area of the proposed tower is currently served by above ground utilities including electric power and telephone poles; and C. All other use and design standards for the construction of the broadcasting tower and associated facilities are met. 2. No modification to increase the height, size, type or location of any existing broadcasting tower or associated facilities, excluding antennas, shall be made unless such modification results in the full compliance of the broadcasting tower and facilities with all of the requirements of this ordinance. 3. Antennas may be installed on any existing structure within the county, without the necessity of obtaining a special use permit, provided said antenna does not meet the definition of a broadcasting tower, does not increase the height of the existing structure more than ten (10) feet, and does not result in the structure and antenna exceeding the maximum structure height for that zoning district. 4. These provisions shall not apply to any temporary broadcasting tower erected for the purpose of system design or testing provided the temporary broadcasting tower is erected for a period not to exceed twenty -one (21) days. In addition, in declared local emergency situations, the county administrator shall be authorized to allow the temporary installation of a broadcasting tower for the duration of the local emergency. A zoning permit pursuant to section 30 -9 of this ordinance shall be applied for and approved prior to erecting any temporary or emergency tower. (C) Application requirements: 1. All potential applicants for broadcasting towers shall consult with county planning staff at least thirty (30) days prior to submitting an application for a proposed broadcasting tower. During this consultation the applicant shall present information to the staff on system objectives, proposed coverage areas, and alternative sites considered and rejected. The staff shall provide the potential applicant information on Roanoke County policies and standards for broadcasting towers, and shall discuss with the applicant possible alternatives to broadcasting tower construction. 2. In addition to the application requirements contained in section 30 -19 -2 of this ordinance, all applicants for broadcasting towers shall provide the following at the time of application: a. The location of all other proposed broadcasting tower sites considered and rejected, and the specific technical, legal or other reasons for the rejection. b. The location of all other possible collocation sites considered and rejected, and the specific technical, legal or other reasons for the rejection. C. Accurate, to scale, photographic simulations showing the relationship of the proposed broadcasting tower and associated antenna to the surroundings. Photographic simulations shall also be prepared showing the relationship of any new or modified road, access or utility corridors constructed or modified to serve the proposed broadcasting tower site. The number of simulations and the perspectives from which they are prepared, shall be established with the staff at the consultation required in section C.I. above. d. A computerized terrain analysis showing the visibility of the proposed broadcasting tower and antenna at the requested height and location. If new or modified road, access or utility corridors are proposed, the terrain analysis shall also show the visibility of these new or modified features. e. Information on how the proposed site relates to the applicants existing communication system, including number of other sites within the Roanoke Valley, and the location of the antenna at each site. f. All broadcasting tower applicants shall be required, at their expense to conduct an on -site "balloon" or comparable test prior to the planning commission and board of supervisors hearings on the special use permit. The purpose of this test shall be to demonstrate the potential visual impact of the proposed tower. The dates and periods of these tests shall be established with the applicant at the pre - application consultation. g. Written verification that all required submittals to the FAA as required by section 30- 87 -2(D)6 of this ordinance have been submitted. 3. The applicant shall be responsible for all fees associated with the filing of the application including the reasonable cost of any independent analysis deemed necessary by the county to verify the need for the new broadcasting tower. The board of supervisors shall establish these fees, which shall be discussed with the applicant at the pre - application conference. (D) General standards: 1. The maximum height of any proposed broadcasting tower and associated antenna shall be made as a condition of the special use permit, but in no case shall any broadcasting tower and antenna exceed one hundred ninety -nine (199) feet in height. Applicants shall request the lowest broadcasting tower and antenna height necessary to accomplish their specific communication objectives. 2. The setback for any proposed broadcasting tower shall, at a minimum, conform to the requirements for principal structures for the proposed zoning district. However, in no case shall the minimum setback from the base of the broadcasting tower to any residential structure on an adjoining lot be less than forty (40) percent of the height of the tower, measured from the closest structural member of the broadcasting tower (excluding guy lines). Guy lines shall be exempt from the minimum setback requirements in side and rear yards for the respective zoning district, but shall comply with the setback requirements for the front yard. 3. The minimum setback from any property line abutting a road right -of -way for any other building or structure associated with a broadcasting tower shall be fifty (50) feet. Such buildings or structures shall be located a minimum of twenty -five (25) feet from any other property line. 4. More than one (1) broadcasting tower shall be permitted on a lot provided all applicable requirements have been met including setback requirements. 5. Broadcasting towers shall not be illuminated with any type of lighting apparatus, unless such lighting is a requirement of the FAA or FCC. When lighting is proposed to conform to federal requirement, the county shall contact the federal agency to verify the necessity of lighting, and to determine the minimal amount and type of lighting necessary to comply with federal guidelines. Security lighting, or a "down lighting" design may be installed on buildings and structures associated with a broadcasting tower. In no case shall any lighting violate section 30 -94 of this ordinance. 6. Any proposed broadcasting tower within two (2) miles from any general or commercial airport or located at a ground elevation at or above two thousand (2,000) feet, average mean sea level, shall be referred to the appropriate regional office of the FAA for review and comment prior to filing an application for a special use permit. 7. All broadcasting towers shall comply with any additional requirements established in the airport overlay district in section 30 -72 of this ordinance, and the emergency communications overlay district in section 30 -73 8. Any broadcasting tower approved shall be structurally designed to carry sufficient loading, and the site approved shall be sized to accommodate the additional equipment necessary for at least three (3) other vendors /providers of communications services in order to minimize the proliferation of new broadcasting towers in the vicinity of the requested site. In addition, by applying and being granted the special use permit, the applicant and the owner of the land agree to make the broadcasting tower and tower site available for additional leases within the structural capacity of the broadcasting tower and at reasonable costs adequate to recover the capital, operating and maintenance costs of the broadcasting tower location required for the additional capacity. 9. A monopole broadcasting tower design is recommended. The board may approve an alternative broadcasting tower design if it finds that an alternative type of structure has less of a visual impact on the surrounding community and Roanoke County, and /or based upon accepted technical and engineering data a monopole design is not technically feasible. Cost shall not be a criteria for determining broadcasting tower design. 10. No broadcasting towers shall be permitted within the critical viewsheds of the Blue Ridge Parkway or Appalachian Trail as shown on any official map designating these viewsheds and pre- approved by the board of supervisors. In addition, no towers shall be proposed within any other designated area of local scenic, historical, ecological and cultural importance as designated and approved by the board of supervisors prior to the filing of a tower application. 11. By applying and being granted the special use permit, the applicant and the owner of the land agree to dismantle and remove the broadcasting tower and associated facilities from the site within ninety days of the broadcasting tower no longer being use for wireless communications. Dismantling and removal from the site shall only be required after notice by the County. If antennas on any approved tower are relocated to a lower elevation, the tower shall be shortened to the height of the highest antenna. A bond or similar performance guarantee may be required as part of the special use permit approval. Said guarantee will be in an amount sufficient to ensure removal of the tower and all associated facilities and the reclamation of the property and road, access and utility corridors to a condition that existed prior to tower construction. 12. All broadcasting tower structures and associated hardware, antennas, and facilities shall be a flat matted finish so as to reduce visibility and light reflection unless otherwise required by the FCC or FAA. 13. No business signs shall be allowed on the property identifying the name of, or services offered by, any business associated with the broadcasting tower. (E) General review policies: All special use permit requests for new broadcasting towers, including the replacement or modification of existing broadcasting towers shall be reviewed by the staff, planning commission and board of supervisors on the basis of the following criteria: 1. The extent to which the broadcasting tower proposal conforms to the general special use permit criteria in section 30- 19 of this ordinance, and the intent, application requirements, and general standards for broadcasting towers found in these provisions. 2. The demonstrated willingness of the applicant to evaluate collocation opportunities within the proposed communication service area, and the demonstrated history of the applicant choosing collocation sites within the Roanoke Valley. 3. The base and top elevation of the proposed broadcasting tower relative to surrounding natural land forms. Notwithstanding any other provision of this section, broadcasting tower locations below surrounding ridge lines are preferred. 4. Broadcasting tower locations already served by existing roads and utilities are preferred due to the potential detrimental environmental and visual impacts resulting from the construction of new road and utility corridors. 5. Within the needed service area, the availability of other existing structures that are, based upon independent analysis, of suitable height, design, and location for the needed antenna. 6. The visibility of the broadcasting tower from the surrounding community and neighborhood compatibility of the tower as determined by the submitted computer simulations, terrain analysis and balloon or comparable test. 7. The degree to which the proposed tower location, site design and facilities including fencing, buildings and other ground mounted equipment and new or modified road, access or utility corridors are located, designed and constructed to be compatible with the neighborhood.
