from the General Fund Unappropriated Balance for the second of three payments for the

Mr. Gubala advised that the Industrial Development Authority reviewed this
request and approved it by resolution. He is now requesting approval of the Board of
July 28,1998

-
Supervisors. The proposal has three phases: (1) building of 48 independent living units;
(2) refinancing of Williamson Road property; and (3) funding of reserves. Friendship
Manor Apartment Village Corporation has had an agreement with the County since 1987
to pay a service fee in lieu of taxes on real property. The taxable value of this project is
$3.6 million and it will generate $8,136 in service fees. Currently Friendship Manor which
is wholly taxed pays taxes of $88,899 and Friendship Manor Apartment Village Corporation
pays $34,788 in service fees. Steve Rice, Executive Director for Friendship Manor,
responded to questions and explained that the project does not involve an acquisition of
property but building of the 48 independent living units on property they already own.
In response to an inquiry from Supervisor Johnson, Mr. Gubala advised that
the interest rate is 5-1/2 percent. Supervisor Johnson suggested that the Board consider
putting a surcharge on IDA funding such as Yo of 1 % similar to what Montgomery County
does. Mr. Gubala advised that he conducted a survey and quite a few counties impose
a surcharge or fee. There was no consensus from the Board to move forward with this
suggestion.

IN RE: FIRST READING OF ORDINANCES
.1.. First readin9 of ordinance creating the Virainia Headwaters
Regional Industrial Facility Authority. (Paul Mahonev. County
Attomev}
Mr. Mahoney advised that the legislation authorizing the creation of the
Virginia Headwaters Regional Industrial Facility Authority (Authority) was adopted by the
1997 General Assembly. The original concept was to create an authority to establish the
New River Valley Commerce Park near Dublin, Virginia. The concept was broadened to
create an authority able to undertake numerous projects to support economic development
throughout the region which is within the boundaries of Planning Districts 4 and 5, and a
variety of localities falling within certain population brackets. Mr. David Rundgren,
Executive Director of the New River Planning District Commission, has forwarded to the
County and other localities a draft ordinance and agreement to create the Authority. Mr.
Mahoney expressed his reservations about the long term fiscal impact but felt that the
Authority could be beneficial. He suggested that before the second reading of the
ordinance, several changes should be made to the ordinance concerning the right of a
locality to withdraw, and their financial responsibility if they do withdraw. He and some of
the other state officials are discussing the possibility of amending the draft agreement to
limit the expenses of a locality to $5,000 per year.
Supervisor Nickens advised that the Town of Vinton was not included in the
ordinance and asked that they be contacted.
Supervisor Johnson moved to approve the first reading and set the second

financinQ for a local DubUc works imDrovement proiect . Orander
Drive and Gieser Road Sewer Proiect. (Gary Robertson. Utility
Director)
0-072898-5
Mr. Robertson explained that since the first reading of the ordinance, there
have been significant changes in the alternatives to pay for the construction costs. At the
first reading, the alternative suggested was that the initial participants would pay a total
cost of $3,321 and later participants would pay $4,071. At that time, the Board discussed
the lack of incentives for more people to participate in the future. Staff has added two
alternatives: (1) Alternative #2 states that the initial participants would pay $3,321 and
future participants would pay an increase of 5% each year to year ten at $5,688; and (2)
Alternative #3 states that initial participants would pay $3,321 and future participants after
September 30, 1998 would pay a one time 25% increase or $4,714. He recommended
Alternative #3 because it would be easier method to communicate to citizens and track in
the future. He will notify the citizens of the costs for future participants.

Commercial District, without the speculative retail building. The applicant has proffered
the following conditions: (1) Use of the property will be limited to (a) personal services (b)
all uses permitted in the C1 zoning district. (2) The proposed parking area shown on the
preliminary layout will be developed and cross easements will be established, to allow the

concerns raised by citizens at the Planning Commission's public hearing, and advised that
the Planning Commission recommended approval of the rezoning on July 7, 1998.
Comments from the members of the Planning Commission included the following: (1) felt
that the proposed uses are no more intensive that uses that are otherwise allowed in C-1
districts; (2) that many C-1 uses could be more intensive; and (3) that this dry cleaners is
an appropriate transitional use separating the R-1 single family neighborhood from the
intensity of Route 460.
Mike Webb, architect from Lumdsen Associates, responded to questions
about the stormwater facilities and advised that the stormwater retention pond would be
adequate for this site and the adjacent site.

the differences between some high intensity C-1 zoning uses and low intensity C-2 uses,
