IN RE:
WORK SESSION ON DRAINAGE
Director of Engineering Phillip Henry presented an
overview of the drainage program. The county has received 2 0
drainage complaints since May 1987. They have held eleven
community meetings with the citizens throughout the county. Most
of the drainage complaints are divided into three areas of
responsibility. The Virginia Department of Transportation i
responsible for drainage within road right-of-ways, and drai age
I
easements acquired by VDOT and easements upstream and downst earn
of right-of-ways. Roanoke County is responsible for drainag
easements for stormwaters leaving right-of-way of state
maintained roads and is responsible for keeping drainage
easements clear beyond VDOT's responsibility. Property owne s
are responsible for certain drainage problems also.
Follow ng
the work session he requested that the Board give the staff
direction on how they should pursue the drainage program.
Assistant Director of Engineering George Simpson
reviewed the list of prioritized projects that meet the crit ria
for drainage responsibility for Roanoke County. The total
I
estimated cost is $266,000. He also presented a list of maj r
drainage projects which totaled $10,945,000. Mr. Henry advi ed
515
February 23, 1988
hat many of the drainage problems concern erosion control and
equested that Arnold Covey from Development Review discuss that
ssue. Mr. Covey described the erosion control violation
rocedure which is set by state code. He advised that the only
Iternative to following this procedure would be to use the
rainage program to correct the violations.
Supervisor Nickens moved to approve the drainage
aintenance philosophy as outlined in the work session and to
prioritized list of maintenance projects. The motion
seconded by Supervisor McGraw. Supervisor Johnson asked that
he motion be amended to request that the Sheriff's Department be
otified about the potential use of non-violent repeat offenders
n the drainage program. The motion carried by the following
ecorded vote:
YES: Supervisors Johnson, Robers, McGraw, Nickens, Garrett
None
Mr. Hodge advised that they will bring back a report in

2. Elimination of RidershiD Fees for CORTRAN
Proaram: Director of Finance Diane Hyatt advised that sinc
July 1, 1987, the County has contracted with RADAR to provid
this service to the citizens at a cost of $60,000. It is
presently taking 20 hours of staff time and printing and pos age
costs to distribute the tickets which are sold for $1.50 eac .
It is therefore costing about $6,000 but bringing in only $3 00
in revenue. It would be more cost effective to allow citize s to
ride on the CORTRAN system free. Elderly citizens would pre ent
their League of Older Americans card, and handicapped citize s
would present their Easter Seal card. Staff is therefore
recommending the elimination of ridership fees for the CORT
program.

Supervisor Nickens asked what the impact of these bonds

Public Hearing for citizen comment on
authorization of the Treasurer to issue
up to $8 MILLION REVENUE ANTICIPATION
NOTES to cover operational cash
deficits
Mr. Chambliss advised that a public hearing must b
held before issuing any bonds or notes on behalf of the Coun y.
In 1987, the County had to borrow $10 million to cover casua
cash deficits experienced by the County because of the peak
seasons for collecting revenue. Most County revenue is rece ved
by December 5th and by June 5th for real estate and personal
property taxes and auto decal fees. It is anticipated that t
will be necessary to borrow only $8 million even though the egal
advertisement stated $10 million. Staff recommends approval of
the proposed resolution after hearing any citizen comment.

Mr. Hugh Key, 5355 Black Bear Lane, opposed this type
f borrowing, pointing out that this has only happened recently.
e asked why it is now necessary to borrow the money when it was
ot done for so many years. He asked how much was being spent in
elation to each dollar of revenue increase.
Supervisor Johnson pointed out that in the past the
ounty could utilize interest on capital money that had not been
pent to meet these problems. The federal law has changed, and
he County can no longer use these funds.
Mr. J. F. Walker, 3313 Stonehenge Square, asked for a
I
ationale of expenses for the $8 Million. He expressed concern
t the expenses of moving public safety functions to Southview
chool. He advised that he had not receive a written response to
is previous questions concerning this move. Mr. Hodge advised
hat a written response had recently been sent to him and he
hould be receiving it shortly.

OBLIGATION BONDS not to exceed $3,985,000
to assist in financing renovations and
improvements to Back Creek Elementary
School and Bent Mountain Elementary
School
Superintendent of Schools Bayes Wilson reported t t
these bonds are for the additions to these two schools and
be borrowed from the Virginia Public School Authority. Bec se
of the expected growth in this area of the County it will b
necessary to renovate both schools.
Supervisor Johnson asked when the Virginia Public
I
School Authority issued bonds. Mr. Wilson responded there' a
spring and fall issue. Supervisor Johnson advised that the is
usual a decrease in the interest rate during a presidential ear.
He felt there might be a more favorable rate in the fall
asked what impact this would have on the progress of the
renovations. Mr. Wilson advised that if they waited until
ll,
they would have at least one or two payments to the contrac rs,
and would have to ask for temporary borrowing to meet these
payments. Supervisor Johnson suggested using bond funds
earmarked for renovations to William Byrd Junior High Schoo
paying it back from a fall bond issue when rates might be b
Mr. Hodge advised that he did not think the bond referendum

he proposed bond issuance. She felt that the work must begin
his summer and the County should not wait until the fall bond
ssue. She described the problems of the overcrowded conditions
t the school.
Mr. Chambliss advised that the Board could defer action
ntil the fall and make a loan from other funds. He did not feel
he money could come from the bond referendum funds without a
alidation process. Supervisor Robers expressed concern that the
ounty would be taking a risk that the interest rates could be
igher in the fall.
Supervisor Johnson advised that the state had taken the
eiling off literary loan fund limits, and asked if the County
auld utilize this source of revenue. Mr. Wilson responded that
hese funds take 18 months and the County would have to wait
ntil then to get the money. Mr. Wilson reported that they must
et the Virginia Public School Authority know by March 3rd if
hey intend to borrow the money.
Supervisor Garrett moved to approve the prepared
esolution. The motion was seconded by Supervisor McGraw.
