RESOLUTION 011216-9 OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF THE
COUNTY OF ROANOKE, VIRGINIA, URGING NO ACTION BE TAKEN
BY THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY TO DIMINISH MENTAL HEALTH
SERVICES FOR THE MOST SERIOUSLY AND PERSISTENTLY
MENTALLY ILL CITIZENS OF THE ROANOKE REGION OF VIRGINIA
WHEREAS, Governor Terry McAuliffe's fiscal year 2017 budget requests
$1,000,000 for planning for the closing of Catawba Hospital in fiscal year 2018; and
WHEREAS, Catawba Hospital serves the needs of the Roanoke region and
much of Western Virginia for geriatric and adult patients with serious and persistent
mental illness by providing fifty (50) adult beds and sixty (60) geriatric beds; and
WHEREAS, according to a report by the Department of Behavioral Health and
Developmental Services (Study of Piedmont Geriatric and Catawba Hospitals,
November 15, 2015 - pg. 21) geriatric admissions to State hospitals increased sixty-one
percent (61 %) in fiscal year 2015, thereby showing a need to keep these beds; and
WHEREAS, Catawba Hospital provides beds mandated by Senate Bill 260
requiring State hospitals to provide beds for individuals on Temporary Detention Orders
(TDO) when private beds are not available; and
WHEREAS, Catawba Hospital saw an increase in admissions of forty-one
percent (41 %) in fiscal year 2015 (Study of Piedmont Geriatric and Catawba Hospitals,
November 15, 2015 — pg. 22) indicating a substantial need for these TDO beds in our
region; and
Page 1 of 3
WHEREAS, Catawba Hospital currently serves the needs of the local and
regional public safety agencies and jails effectively and efficiently by providing
accessible emergency services for inmates and community members in crisis; and
WHEREAS, the closest similar state facility is Western State Hospital in
Staunton, nearly one hundred (100) miles away. The proposed substitute of Western
State for Catawba services would cause substantial local government cost increases for
transportation of prisoners and patients to Staunton for local and regional public safety
agencies; and
WHEREAS, the impact of closing Catawba Hospital would create an undue
burden on patients in crisis and their families from the Roanoke Valley and nearby
areas who would have to travel nearly one hundred (100) miles to Western State
Hospital; and
WHEREAS, in a proposed State bond issue, funding is requested to be provided
to increase beds at Western State Hospital by only fifty-six (56) adult and geriatric beds,
not nearly providing enough beds for Western Virginia based on the aforementioned
increased need and the loss of one hundred ten (110) beds at Catawba; and
WHEREAS, Catawba Hospital is a vital part of the region's continuum of care by
providing in-patient services for adult and geriatric individuals with the most severe and
persistent forms of mental illness; and
WHEREAS, patients with the severe and persistent forms of mental illness and
geriatric conditions simply cannot be served adequately in the less intensive community
based services available in the region, according to Diane Kelly, Executive Director of
Mental Health America of the Roanoke Valley; and
Page 2 of 3
WHEREAS, Catawba Hospital employs approximately two hundred fifty (250)
area residents and has a budget of approximately twenty (20) million dollars. The
closure of Catawba Hospital would cause serious negative economic impacts for
Roanoke County and the Roanoke Valley.
NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the Board of Supervisors of the
County of Roanoke, Virginia hereby urges the General Assembly to take no action that
would move toward diminishing mental health services for the most seriously and
persistently mentally ill citizens of the Roanoke region of Virginia; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Board of Supervisors of the County of
Roanoke, Virginia hereby directs the County Administrator, or his designee, to transmit
this resolution to Governor McAuliffe and all members of the Virginia Senate Finance
Committee and Virginia House of Delegates Appropriations Committee in addition to all
local State Delegates and Senators.

Request to amend the scope of services for the Professional
Engineering Services contract with Whitman, Requardt &
Associates to add Construction Management and Project
Administration Services for the Plantation Road Bicycle,
Pedestrian and Streetscape Improvement Project, Hollins

COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR'S COMMENTS:
SUMMARY OF INFORMATION:
Staff is requesting authorization to amend and extend the Professional Engineering
Services contract with Whitman, Requardt & Associates (WR&A) to provide utility
relocation coordination, construction management and project administration services
(construction phase services) for the Plantation Road Bicycle, Pedestrian and
Streetscape Improvement Project. WR&A were originally selected through a
qualification -based competitive process which included design, construction
management and project administration services. However, the construction phase
services scope and fee were not included with the original contract because the total
scope of the project that would be constructed was unknown.
All professional service contracts are awarded based on a qualification -based selection
process, with the professional fees then negotiated with the selected firm. Staff
believes that WR&A, as the project designer, is the most qualified to provide the
necessary construction phase services, and that the negotiation position of Roanoke
County is not now significantly different that it would have been if the construction
Page 1 of 3
services had been negotiated at the beginning of the contract.
Contract changes of this type are normally within the oversight of the County
Administrator as all necessary funds have already been appropriated to the project
budget. However, adding construction phase services to the current contract would
result in a change order to the contract in excess of twenty-five percent (25%) of the
original contract amount. According to Roanoke County procurement regulations and
the Procurement Code of Virginia, change orders exceeding twenty-five percent (25%)
must be approved by the Board of Supervisors.
WR&A has provided a proposed fee of approximately $450,000 to provide construction
phase services. Roanoke County and WR&A are currently negotiating some details.
To allow the project to continue to proceed, without a delay, Staff is requesting the
authority to execute an increase to the contract amount not to exceed $450,000.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no project budget impact. The $450,000 fee would be paid from existing
Revenue Sharing project funds. All funds necessary for the contract have been
appropriated.
ALTERNATIVES:
1. Amend the scope of services.
2. Do not amend the scope of services. This would result in the need to advertise a
Request for Qualifications for these services. In Staff's opinion this would result
in project delay, greater risk to the County during construction (if we select
another consultant for construction phase services), and probable higher cost.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends alternative #1.

VOTE:
Supervisor Bedrosian moved to authorize the amending of the scope of services with
Whitman, Requartdt & Associates.
Motion approved.
