IN RE:
WORK SESSIONS
1. Smith Mountain Lake Studv: John Bradshaw with
Hayes, Seay, Mattern and Mattern, Inc. was present. He reviewed
the historical data surrounding the search for a water source for
the County, and why Spring Hollow Reservoir was considered the
best al ternati ve. He advised they had completed the preliminary
assessment of Smith Mountain Lake at the Hardy Ford Bridge as a
potential water source for Roanoke County. He reported that the
estimated capital cost using the Hardy Ford Bridge as a intake
location is $73,000,000, with maintenance costs of $6,000,000.
Spring Hollow reservoir is estimated to cost $70,000,000 with
maintenance costs of $2,000 per year. Hayes, Seay, Mattern and
Mattern recommends that Smith Mountain Lake not be considered an
alternative because of the costs, the potential for pOllution,
greater distance, and legal considerations such as controlling
water rights, recreational usage and lakefront property
development.
Supervisor McGraw advised that when the Board went into
session, he planned to move to go forward with the construction
of the Spring Hollow Reservoir. Supervisor Johnson advised his
primary concern was the potential for water contamination.
Supervisor Nickens requested that a copy of the study be sent to
the Friends of Roanoke River who have opposed the construction of
the Spring Hollow Reservoir.

2. Flood Control: Mr. Hodge advised that John Hubbard
was not out of town and unable to present the work session. Mr.
Hodge stated he was recommending that a formal natural disaster
policy be adopted for all such tragedies. The policy would
incl ude procedures for assessors, financial staff, and fire and
rescue personnel. He requested approval to bring back such a
policy wi thin 90 days. He announced that Chairman Garrett had
written Mayor Noel Taylor from the City of Roanoke offering to
work with them on a regional approach to flood control. The
final step is to complete the study being done by the Corps of
Engineers on the tributaries.
Supervisor Johnson requested a cost analysis on
purchasing homes that are flooded by tributaries even though he
advised he felt the cost would be prohibitive. He also requested
that the Corps of Engineers and appropriate staff meet with the
communities affected by flooding. Mr. Hodge advised he would
follow up with these requests and bring back a proposed policy on
natural disasters in September.
3. Radio Communication System: Mr. Hodge introduced
Mike Hunter of RAM Communication who has served as a consultant
to the County and has studied the new radio system. Sheriff
Michael Kavanaugh, Fire Chief Tommy Fuqua, personnel from
Motorola, and Director of General Services Gardner Smith also
participated. Mr. Hodge reviewed the background of the purchase
of the new radio communication system.
Mr. Hunter reported that their task was to review and
compare the old system and new system. He outlined the problems
~
July 12, 1988
-006
with the system, including fairly long wave length, long
antennas, portables and pagers are difficult to operate, and the
band is susceptible to harmful interference. He felt that the
800 Mhz system provides operational features not present before
such as portable coverage and mobile to mobile coverage across
the County. He acknowledged there are areas in the County in
which coverage from the portable radios is marginal. In response
to a question from Supervisor Nickens, Mr. Hunter advised that
Roanoke County made a good decision on their choice with only
$2.5 million funds available. However, the system could still be
enhanced. Supervisor Johnson asked if Phase II will solve the
problems. Mr. Hunter responded that it would be much improved
when Phase II is complete.
Sheriff Kavanaugh outlined his concerns with the new
system. These concerns included the bid process for the new
system, and the fact that Requests for Proposal process was used
instead of a bid process. Sheriff Kavanaugh felt this process
could eliminate bidders. He also was concerned with the "dead"
spots and lack of coverage on the present system, and the
decision to go with 800 Mhz trunking. Sheriff Kavanaugh presented
memos from his law enforcement personnel describing problems they
have had with the new system, explaining it did not have "talk
around" . Mr. Clark from Motorola responded that the system did
have this feature. Sheriff Kavanaugh also questioned turning in
the old radios for a trade-in because they were originally
purchased with grant funds.
