2014. The County budget proposes an 8¢ increase on the real estate tax rate from 56¢ to 64¢ per
$100 of assessed value, 5¢ of which is needed to fund this initiative. Public meetings have been
held by Sheriff Mike Taylor to discuss this new school safety initiative. The public hearing will
allow the Board of Supervisors to receive citizen input on the inclusion of this safety initiative in
the County's FY 2014 budget. Separate public hearings will be held for the proposed school
budget and the proposed County Budget.
Mr. Ecker opened the public hearing at 7:03pm. The following citizens signed up to
speak: Mr. Jim Jennings, a representative for the Safety Initiative, made comments concerning
the non -profit organization formed, "It's All About the Kids, Inc." that will be able to receive
contributions towards the Safety Initiative from private entitiesibusinesses with the expressed
purpose of augmenting the County Budget to pay for this program. This non - profit has already
applied for its non - profit federal ID, set up a bank account, committees have formed and have
P20

April 8, 2013
begun drawing up federal and state grant requests, and donations are already being received. Mr.
Jennings urged the Board to favorably consider this proposed initiative for the safety of the
school children.
Mr. Roger Williams, Chatham - Blairs District, supported the School Safety Initiative but
rather than a tax increase to fund it, he would like to see the Board re -visit the uranium mining
issue and possibly use revenues from mining to pay for the School Safety Initiative.
The following citizens supported the School Safety Initiative as presented, including the total
8% tax increase to fund it in the FY2013/14 budget, along with the School Budget and County
Budget: Sarah Collins, Dan River District and former public school teacher in the Danville
schools; Jamie Bethal, Dan River District; Willie Fitzgerald, Banister District and President of
the Pittsylvania County Chapter of the NAACP; Danny Hearp, Tunstall District; Richard Tate,
Dan River District. The Honorable Sheriff Michael Taylor also speak in favor of approving the
School Safety Initiative.
The following citizens spoke in support of having a School Safety Initiative, but with no tax
increase and instead of hiring more deputies, to use the existing 15 deputy positions whose salary
is already funded by the County, and to alternative ways to fund the program rather than a tax
increase, and before a tax increase to fund this program occurred, to implement any possible
budget cuts and possible cuts to the safety initiative program, suspend funding industrial park
development, in particularly the further development of the Berry Hill Mega Park, until the
School Safety Initiative was well underway: Dave Hutcherson, Staunton River District; Donald
Gilbert, Chatham - Blairs District; B.J. Greene, Callands- Gretna District; Nancy Motley,
Chatham- Blairs District; Eugene Carter, Chatham - Blairs District; and George Stanhope,
Callands- Gretna District.
Mr. Joe Spence, Dan River District, stated he believed the parents of the children in schools
should bear the burden of the cost to implement this program and not a tax increase to the
general public to implement the program.
Mr. Harold Arthor of the Callands- Gretna District, felt this was a knee-jerk reaction to the
Sandy Hook incident, and there should be an emphasis on mental health issues, which has been
the root cause of all incidents like Ft. Hood and Sandy Hook, and therefore did not support the
School Safety Initiative proposal.
Mr. James Dehart, Westover District, felt the School Safety Initiative should be under the
control of the School Board and their staff, and does not agree with the proposed initiative as
presented.
This concluded citizen input and Mr. Ecker closed the hearing at 7:47pm.

The following citizens were not in favor of any tax increases at all and the County and School
Boards should find ways to cut expenditures: Darrel Burnett, Chatham - Blairs District; Joe
Spence, Dan River District; and Donald Gilbert, Chatham - Blairs District.
Willie Fitzgerald, Banister District and President of the Pittsylvania County Chapter of the
NAACP stated he felt the low turnout of citizens for the public hearing was due to citizens
believing the Board does not listen to their concerns. Mr. Fitzgerald stated he supports the
proposed school budget and believes the children of Pittsylvania County are the most important
economic development interest the County could invest in because the children are the County's
future.
John Chaney, Chatham - Blairs District, believed the County should look at ways to increase its
revenues by supporting uranium mining in Pittsylvania County instead of raising taxes.
Nancy Smith, Tunstall District, stated the Board should only give the schools what the state
requires the County to give them, and the school administration should be more accountable,
commenting that a line item budget from the school isn't even available for citizens to view, and
for that matter, isn't even made available to the Board of Supervisors; the schools only provide
the eight (8) categories for funding. Ms. Smith also commented on while the new high school
renovations looked lovely, where was the thought of school safety when designing the high
school renovations to include all the walls of glass, and suggested a lock down procedure like
Stony Mill Elementary School has be implemented at all the schools.
This concluded comments by citizens and Mr. Ecker closed the hearing at 8:08pm.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Board of Directors
FROM: Pam Dinkle, Lake Management and Project Coordinator
DATE: April 9, 2013
SUBJECT: Consideration of Cooperative Royal Flush Program for 2013
In an effort to assure that an on -water sewage pump -out program is in place at Smith Mountain Lake, for
the 2013 boating season, the Virginia Department of Health (VDH), the Tri- County Lake Administrative
Commission (TLAC) and the Smith Mountain Lake Association (SMLA) are considering a single season
agreement to run this program utilizing VDH's equipment.
This single season agreement is an excellent opportunity for all parties to ascertain the feasibility of a long-
term cooperative relationship for the continuation of a pump -out program at SML. Since the inception of
the original idea and approval of a SML program in 2000, TLAC has not been involved in the planning or
operation of the program. Although an active partner in the program since 2001, the SMLA has not been
involved with many aspects of the program which they are now offering to handle. Previously, VDH has
managed the majority of the program, but now desires to manage the grant funds and take a supportive role.
TLAC staff believes that this proposed single season program could serve as a necessary "trial run"
allowing all parties to consider the workload, staff and /or volunteer commitment, and funding required
prior to considering a long -term commitment to continue the program.
Attached are the proposed 2013 Smith Mountain Lake "Royal Flush" Program documents. TLAC has
received approval to proceed with this initiative from Bedford County and Franklin County. Pittsylvania
County tabled the consideration last week and will reconsider this request next week. It is noted that if the
Board approves the program today, this approval is contingent upon receiving approval from Pittsylvania
County's Board of Supervisors to handle this program. In the event, they do not support the
recommendation, any approving decisions today would be considered null and void.
If the Board wishes for TLAC to manage this initiative, the 2013 Royal Flush Program (Scope of Work and
budget) must be approved. Please review the Memo of Understanding for details.
Highlights of the 2013 Program include:
• The program will be in effect from Memorial Day weekend to the Labor Day weekend
• Total days of operation will be 36 days — Saturdays and Sundays only, except for the three National
holiday weekends when services will be provided from Friday through Monday.
• Hours of operation will be 8 A.M. to 6 P.M.
• All waste collected will be offloaded at a marina dump site at no charge to the program
• The program will utilize VDH's pump -out boat and two pickup trucks, plus the necessary
supplies /equipment. VDH shall carry the necessary insurance for the equipment.
• The equipment will be staffed by six crew members (three two - member teams) and one supervisor.
All staff will be part-time, seasonal employees of TLAC/Bedford County. Appropriate employee
insurance coverage will apply.
• Only TLAC staff members shall operate, or travel in/on any of the program's equipment.
• TLAC shall establish a "Royal Flush" Committee.
• The SMLA shall provide all necessary volunteers to coordinate and manage certain aspects of the
program through their participation on the TLAC "Royal Flush" Committee.
P73
SMLA shall provide a contribution to TLAC for any funds required for the program that are not
provided through the VDH grant.
TLAC shall have the lead role and the responsibility for the program, including certain tasks,
oversight and administrative roles.
If the Board concurs, the following motion would be in order:
Board member made a motion to approve the proposed cooperative Royal Flush
Program for 2013.
If the Board approves the Royal Flush Program for 2013, it will be necessary for staff to proceed with the
following Plan of Action, towards the goal of having all items completed, or near completion, by the May
Board meeting:
• Enter into a Memo of Understanding (MOU) with the Smith Mountain Lake Association for this
cooperative program. A draft of this agreement is attached, and only minor changes may be made
prior to executing the agreement.
• Upon the signing of the above referenced MOU, TLAC shall submit a Scope of Work and
proposed budget for the program to the Virginia Department of Health for their consideration.
• Once approval is received for the grant funds, TLAC shall enter into an agreement with VDH for
the 2013 program.
• TLAC shall establish a Royal Flush Committee.
• Working in coordination with the SMLA, staff will provide recommendations to the Board for the
membership of the TLAC Royal Flush Committee. The Chair of this Committee shall be both a
TLAC Board member and an SMLA member.
• Once both agreements are signed, TLAC shall hire the seven (7) seasonal, part-time staff members.
• Training programs for the staff shall be scheduled and conducted.
If the Board concurs, the following motion would be in order:
Board member made a motion to approve the proposed Plan of Action and
instructs the Lake Management and Project Coordinator to enter into the necessary agreements on
behalf of the TLAC Board of Directors.
At the close of the 2013 boating season, the three agencies will review the results of the program and
determine whether or not they wish to pursue a similar program for future years. A positive determination
would result in the consideration of procuring a new pumpout boat.
Reference Documents Attached:
• SMLA's Draft Scope of Work (note: this document will be revised to indicate TLAC's
responsibilities) — Attachment 1
• Royal Flush budget for 2013 — Attachment 2
• Draft MOU between TLAC and SMLA — Attachment 3
• SMLA "Royal Flush" Program document, February 2013 — Attachment 4

will be kept at Bayside Marina.
The 6 individuals and 1 supervisor will be hired to operate the boat and the trucks. The boat will
be crewed by 2 individuals. The truck crews will consist of 2 individuals per vehicle. SMLA will
be responsible for:
• Personnel hiring and management
• Training
• Schedule development and management
• Boat registration
• Truck licensing and registration
• Equipment maintenance
• Development, procurement and distribution of "uniform" shirts for crew and
supervisor
• Collateral material development and distribution
• Record keeping
The supervisor's responsibilities will include:

sewage handling instructions and promoting Virginia's No Discharge regulations and the
benefits of proper sewage handling. These materials will be distributed to boat owners upon
pump -out of a vessel and at 3 -5 marina events as approved by marina operators.
This program, partially funded by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Agency (Clean Vessel Act) and with
Virginia Department of Health support is beneficial to the health and general welfare of
boaters, lake visitors and regional localities whose water supplies originate from Smith
Mountain Lake.

INFORMATION:
The Board of Supervisors, at their regular meeting on April 1, 2013, declared an emergency at the Blairs
Community Center due to water entering the building through the soffit areas around the top of the roof. The
contractor was immediately hired to do work to seal these areas and keep water out of the building.
While the contractor was working on the sides of the building, another storm arrived on Friday, April 19,
2013. A majority of the roof covering the gym area at the Blairs Community Center was torn off by this
storm exposing the roof to wind and water damage; therefore, requiring the Board of Supervisors to expand
their emergency from the areas on the side of the roof to the entire roof covering the gym.
RECOMMENDATION:
The Board of Supervisors declare an emergency at the Blairs Community Center covering the entire roof of
the gym area in accordance with the requirements of Section 2.2- 4303(F), Code of Virginia, 1950, as
amended. Authorize the County Administrator to move forward immediately upon the necessary repairs with
the insurance company.

Subject: Emergency Declaration — Blairs Community Center
The Board of Supervisors, at their regular meeting on April 1, 2013, declared an
emergency at the Blairs Community Center where water had entered the building through
the soffit area and it caused damages to the internal ceiling and to the floor in the gym
area. A contractor was immediately hired to replace the area where the rain had entered
the building in order to be completed before an approaching storm reached our area.
A second storm arrived in our area on Friday, April 19, 2013. Approximately 90% of the
work had been completed by our contractor to stop the leaking from the soffit areas along
the top of the wall; however, due to heavy winds and rain on April 19, 2013, a majority
of the roof covering the gym area at the Blairs Community Center was torn off. The
County staff met with insurance agents and members of the Building and Property
Committee to review the damage to the building, and due to the need of having to cover
the exposed area immediately, the County of Pittsylvania is giving a written notice that
an emergency exists at the Blairs Community Center in Blairs, Virginia; wherein, the
roof, fabric and insulation have been torn off due to heavy winds and rain and a
contractor was brought in to immediately make repairs to the existing roof.
The contractor selected had done a number of jobs in patching the facility already. The
contractor is A. S. Pugh Roofing, Inc., from Danville, Virginia. A notice of this
declaration of emergency will be posted under the Department of General Services
Central Electronic Procurement website in accordance with §2.2- 4308(F), of the Code of
Virginia, 1950, as amended.

BACKGROUND:
The Board of Supervisors advertised a Request for Proposals (RFP) for a Financial Advisor due to changes in the
current bond market regulations to separate financial advisers from bond underwriters.
DISCUSSION:
The County received three (3) responses to the Request for Proposals and interviews were held by a team,
including the Chairman of the Finance Committee of the Board of Supervisors. The committee determined
that the County should negotiate a contract with Edward N. Smithers, Jr., of Mechanicsville, Virginia, as a
Financial Advisor for Pittsylvania County. Davenport & Company that has served the County for a number
of years was also interviewed. The Team determined that they would rather have Davenport & Company
continue with a bond underwriter than to be just financial advisor.
RECOMMENDATION:
The Committee recommends to the Board of Supervisors and the County Administrator negotiate a contract
with Edward N. Smithers, Jr., as Financial Advisor for Pittsylvania County, on an hourly basis for a three (3)
year contract that is annually renewable.

Working with various prospects for industrial development, particularly with the City of Danville and the
Regional Industrial Facility Authority, some consultants have provided services for grant applications concerning
these industries.
The County currently has a proposal from a consultant with a very successful record over many years of
acquiring grant funds. This proposal is to acquire grant funds concerning rail access funding, industrial
access road and community development block grants to provide water and sewer to a site at the Cane Creek
Centre for an unnamed industry.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the Board of Supervisors authorize the County Administrator to do Request for Proposals
concerning consultant services or to negotiate with the West Piedmont Planning District concerning on call
services available to provide this function. Consultant fees will be paid from the grants acquired through the
project.

When renovations of the Chatham Train Depot were completed, the Board of Supervisors established an
operating budget during the 2013 budget process to cover expenses incurred at the Welcome Center.
DISCUSSION:
It was determined that the Library would maintain operations at the train depot. Diane Adkins, Director of the
Pittsylvania County Library has requested that these two 2013 budgets be combined since they will be utilizing
employees and other resources from the Library to operate this facility. The combination of these two budgets
may also aid the Library in securing additional state funding. The budgets have already been consolidated in the
2014 budget.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the Board of Supervisors approve the consolidation of the Welcome Center budget and
the Library local budget as per the attached account listing.

Attached is a list of expenditure refunds for the month of April, 2013 for review. As discussed earlier with
the Board, the simple routine of putting every refund back in the budget is extremely time consuming and
leaves room for errors. To stay in balance with the Treasurer, we need to reappropriate refunds into the
budget so the budget would increase with every expenditure refund.
Staff recommends the reappropriation of funds as follows: $199.67 to Clerk of Court- Copier Lease (100 -4-
021600- 60051), $940.00 to Sheriff -Parts (100 -4- 031200 - 6030), $1,621.20 to Sheriff -Labor (100-4-031200-

DAU&UKUUNO:
During the budget process, a total of 3% was budgeted for all full -time County employees including
Constitutional Officers and their employees with the exception of Assistant Commonwealth's Attorneys who
are to receive a $3,308 supplement plus a 2% pay increase. Since there was some uncertainty concerning the
amount of the increase and the timing of the increase for Compensation Board positions, 3% was budgeted for
these employees effective July 1 with the exception of the Assistant Attorneys.
It was the intention of the Compensation Board to approve a 3% pay increase for Compensation Board
employees and that this increase would in no way be used to offset the required 1% VRS pay increase given by
localities. To ensure that localities would follow this ruling, Governor McDonnell passed an amendment to the
Code of Virginia that states that "Localities shall not utilize Compensation Board funding to supplant local
funds provided by the salaries of constitutional officers and their employees under the provisions of Chapter
822, 2012 Acts of Assembly, who were affected members in service on June 30, 2012." Attached is a memo
from Robyn DeSocio, Executive Secretary for the Compensation Board that explains this amendment. It is
therefore necessary to give an additional 1% increase to Constitutional Officers and their employees in order to
meet this requirement. This change will not require an additional 2014 appropriation but will require
authorization from the Board to transfer funds from the Sheriffs salary line items in the amount of $33,774 to
the other affected departments as follows:
Commissioner of Revenue $ 4,062
Treasurer 3,998
Clerk of Court 5,142
Commonwealth's Attorney 6,377 (Assistant Attorneys will only receive 3 %)
Jail 14,195
THIS TRANSFER WILL NOT NEGATIVELY IMPACT THE SHERIFF'S OFFICE 2014 BUDGET.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the Board of Supervisors approve the above transfers effective July 1, 2013 in order to
abide by the requirements stated forth in Amendment 8 of the Code of Virginia.

EMAIL MEMORANDUM
TO: Constitutional Officers, Regional Jail Superintendents and
Directors of Finance; Local Governing Bodies
FROM: Robyn M. de Socio, Executive Secretary
RE: Governor's Amendment #8 Non - Supplanting of Salary Funds
I am writing in follow -up to the Reconvened Session of the 2013 General Assembly
regarding approval of the Governor's Amendment #8 (see attached) related to
Compensation Board salary increases. This language is intended to clarify that salary
increases provided through the Compensation Board (including the planned FY14 salary
increases) for constitutional officers and their Compensation Board funded employees
cannot be used by local governments as a means to fund the 5% salary adjustment
required to offset the reinstatement of the 5% employee contribution payment to the
Virginia Retirement System (VRS) mandated in Chapter 822 of the 2012 Acts of Assembly
(see attached). This salary adjustment is provided at the locality's expense and is not
budgeted or reimbursable by the Compensation Board, as the locality was formerly paying
the member contribution.
Current language in paragraph B of §15.2 -2507 of the Code of Virginia (see attached)
requires localities to budget the minimum of salary levels established by the Compensation
Board for constitutional officers and their employees, but there is not existing language
requiring localities to maintain additional local salary supplement levels above
Compensation Board amounts when the Compensation Board increases base salaries.
However, the legislature has conveyed it was not their intent to require employees to pay
the contribution to the VRS while being provided with an offsetting salary increase, only to
have that salary increase diminished in future years by a locality recouping its costs through
absorbing future Compensation Board funded salary increases. Therefore, Governor
McDonnell introduced and the 2013 General Assembly approved the clarifying language in
amendment #8 to the budget bill.
The non - supplanting language in the Governor's amendment applies only to the 5% salary
adjustment related to the VRS employee contribution, and does not apply to any other
supplements the locality may provide above that level to constitutional officers and their
Compensation Board funded employees. Many localities provide local supplement funds to
maintain employees of constitutional officers on a local pay plan, or to provide salary
increases at the same time as such increases are provided to local employees or locally
funded employees in a constitutional office.
As long as a locality is paying the Compensation Board funded salary level (including
Compensation Board funded salary increases) and the 5% VRS employee contribution
offsetting salary adjustment for employees that have been in Compensation Board funded
positions since prior to July 1, 2012, additional local supplemental funds are not subject to
the non - supplanting language approved by the 2013 General Assembly.
I hope this information clarifies the intent of the language approved on April 3, 2013 by the
General Assembly for inclusion in the 2013 Appropriation Act. Please contact your program

Governor's Amendment #8 to the enrolled budget bill:
"S. Localities shall not utilize Compensation Board funding to supplant local funds
provided for the salaries of constitutional officers and their employees under the
provisions of Chapter 822, 2012 Acts of Assembly, who were affected members in
service on June 30, 2012."
Chanter 822 of the 2012 Acts of Assembly, 2nd enactment clause:
"2. That any county, city, town, local public school board, or other local employer that
currently pays any portion of member contributions to the Virginia Retirement System
that the member will be responsible for paying pursuant to the provisions of this act
shall provide an increase in total creditable compensation, effective July 1, 2012, to each
affected member who was in service on June 30, 2012, to offset the cost of the member
contributions. Such increase in total creditable compensation shall be equal to the
difference between five percent of an employee's total creditable compensation and the
percentage of the member contribution paid by the local member on January 1, 2012. If
a county, city, town, local public school board, or other local employer elects to phase in
the member contributions pursuant to subdivision F 3 or F 4 of § 51.1 -144 of the Code
of Virginia, the increase in total creditable compensation may also be phased in at the
same rate."

15.2- 1636.13 through 15.2- 1636.17 every county and city shall appropriate as part of
its annual budget or in amendments thereto amounts for salaries, expenses and other
allowances for its constitutional officers that are not less than those established for such
offices in the locality by the Compensation Board pursuant to applicable law or, in the
event of an appeal pursuant to § 15.2- 1636.9, by the circuit court in accordance with
the provisions of that section."

BACKGROUND:
At the March 4, 2013 meeting of the Board of Supervisors, the Board approved a motion for the County to audit
the County's pay and classification plan and do a Request for Proposals (RFP) for that audit. This was approved
unanimously by the Board of Supervisors. Immediately after that, a motion was made and seconded to have Mr.
Barksdale spearhead a committee along with Mr. Sleeper to conduct and audit in -house instead of professional
services to do a wage and labor study. This was unanimously approved by the Board.
DISCUSSION:
The County has not had a professional wage and labor study reviewed since the early 1980s. In the mid -
1990s, staff did the same thing, made some assumptions, stuck percentages in and changed a number of job
descriptions and salaries. As jobs have been cut back and additional work added
for individuals under the economic stress, it is becoming exceedingly difficult for the County to determine
that they have a fair and reasonable wage and salary scale. Therefore, as County Administrator, I am
requesting the Board to clarify the actions of March 4, 2013 at this point, and can the County actually get a
professionally done pay and classification plan since we do not have that type of expertise in- house.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff is requesting the Board of Supervisors to clarify whether or not they will allow a Request for Proposals
for professional service or are they directing staff to conduct a pay and classification plan in -house with
County Staff.

RE: Well Abandonment Notification
Pittsylvania County Sanitary Landfill — Phase I, SWP 571
Dear Mr. Hawker:
This letter acknowledges the receipt and review of the well abandonment notification for the above - listed facility,
dated April 22, 2013, submitted to the Virginia Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) by Dewberry &
Davis, Inc. on behalf of the County.

MW -19, MW -21, MW -25, MW -28, and MW -28B. Each of these wells have either been removed from the network
and/or replaced by new well. The facility's permit has already been amended to reflect the monitoring network
changes. The Department concurs with abandonment of these wells.
As required by the facility's permit, "Wells shall be abandoned following the general requirements of EPA's RCRA
Groundwater Monitoring Technical Enforcement Guidance Document (TEGD) and a well abandonment report
shall be transmitted under signature of a qualified groundwater professional to the Department within 30 -days of
completion of field activities."
Please note that the conclusions presented in this letter are based solely on information supplied by the Permittee or
their environmental representative. The resulting review of this information was undertaken in accordance with
applicable portions of the VSWMR and/or Department Guidance. This letter does not make or imply a final
determination of compliance with the VSWMR, nor does it constitute a final case decision regarding any of the
groundwater actions undertaken at the above - listed solid waste facility.
