Mr. Monday explained the Pittsylvania County School Board recently entered a lease with
First Citizens Bank to purchase 10 passenger buses and 4 special needs buses. The Auditor of Public
Accounts requires that local governing bodies approve such financings. The Code of Virginia, 1950
as amended does not allow for School Boards to establish and maintain such accounts outside of the
County Treasurer’s custody. As such, this lease would need to be maintained on the County’s books
and an appropriation would need to be made for the purchase of these school buses. The School
Board received sealed bids to ensure receiving the best interest rate for purchasing a total of 14 school
buses. First Citizens Bank was the bank providing the lowest rate of 1.12%. The total amount
financed was $972,924.00 and will be financed for 3 years. The 2016 lease payment has already been
appropriated to the School Board’s 2017 budget. Motion was made by Mr. Barber, seconded by Mr.
Warren, for auditing purposes, that the Board ratify the lease and appropriate $972,924.00 to Fund
210 for the purpose of purchasing 14 school buses and have these funds maintained by the
Treasurer’s Office, which was unanimously approved by the Board.
Matt Rowe, Director of Economic Development, explained that in July 2016, the County
announced that Runk and Pratt Senior Living Communities would be constructing a $6M assisted
living and memory care facility near the Town of Hurt, resulting in the creation of 60 jobs. To assist
in the site development for the project, the Tobacco Commission awarded the County a $155,000
Adjourned Meeting
October 18, 2016
Tobacco Regional Opportunity Fund. This award was based upon job creation and capital investment
within a defined time period (5 years for this project), and requires no local match. The Company has
agreed to provide a letter of credit for the awarded amount prior to it being distributed to the
Company to eliminate any potential liability and risk to the County. The awarded money must be
appropriated to the County’s economic development fund – Fund 325. Motion was made by Mr.
Blackstock, seconded by Mr. Davis, to appropriate $155,000 to Fund 325 from the Tobacco Regional
Opportunity Fund (TROF) funds received and authorize the County Administrator to sign any
necessary document. The following Roll Call Vote was recorded: Mr. Barber-Yes; Mr. Hagerman-
Yes; Mr. Blackstock-Yes; Mr. Scearce-Yes; Mr. Davis-Yes; Mr. Warren-Yes; and Mr. Barksdale-
Yes. Mr. Blackstock’s motion was unanimously approved by the Board.
Mr. Monday explained that only one (1) bid was submitted to the County for construction of
the Mt. Tabor Road Compactor Site, which was from White’s Construction Company, Inc., in the
amount of $438,680.62. Funds were already available for this project. Motion was made by Mr.
Davis, seconded by Mr. Warren, to award the bid to White’s Construction Com pany, Inc., in the
amount of $438,680.62 and authorize the County Administrator to sign any necessary documentation.
Mr. Davis’ motion was unanimously approved by the Board.
Motion was made by Mr. Blackstock, seconded by Mr. Warren, to adopt a Philanth ropic
