Board of Supervisors
Business Meeting
September 19, 2017
Henry Smith, Chairman of the Trustees of Elba Church in Gretna, Virginia; Maxine
Diggs, Dianne Jennings, and Willie Ruff, members of Elba Church, asked that the Board
favorably approve the sale of the old Northside High School field in Gretna, Virginia, to the
church for their bid amount as it was the highest bid placed for this County -owned property that
was being auctioned on GovDeals.com.
Gracie Mays presented a trophy to the Pittsylvania County Sheriffs Department as
winners of the annual charity softball game between the Pittsylvania County Sheriffs
Department and the Danville Police Department. Deputy Chris Brown accepted the trophy on
behalf of the Sheriffs Department.
Jordan Kee, Chatham/Blairs District, and Tonya Reynolds, Chatham/Blairs District and
founding member of the Pittsylvania County S.P.C.A., both said that while no agency was
perfect upon initial opening, the Lynchburg Humane Society (LHS) had taken in almost 500
animals since opening late July. Both have visited the center and talked with LHS, and believe
LSH is following state regulations and they support LSH wholeheartedly.
Karen Maute of the Westover District stated she has been asking for months if the
County was going to enforce their zoning ordinance and require Mountain Valley Pipeline
(MVP) to apply for Special Use Permits since their easements would fall within our ordinance,
and she has yet to get an answer on that question. Ms. Maute also said that at Board of
Supervisors' August 16, 2017 Work Session, the County Attorney and Mr. Sides stated that
federal lays preempted the County's ordinance since MVP was FERC certified, to which Ms.
Maute said was incorrected-MVP was not FERC certified. She further said she was very
surprised to see the Board go into Closed Session earlier this evening at their Work Session
concerning MVP. She has never said she was suing the County concerning this matter; she just
wanted the County to enforce its zoning ordinance. Ms. Maute then read the following
statement, as she felt is was not heard during the Board's convening to Closed Session at their
Work Session:
Mr. Chairman; I am Karen B. Maute, a resident of the Westover District in Pittsylvania
County. I protest the closing of this meeting. The reason you have listed for closing the meeting
does not meet the provisions of Virginia's Open Meeting Law. I ask that you reconsider your
intent to discuss this matter in executive session. I further ask that this protest be recorded in the
official minutes of the meeting, as required by law.
Ms. Maute's protest statement referred to the Board entering a Closed Session, during their Work
Session prior to the Business meeting, under Legal Authority §2.2-3711(A)(7) of the Code of
Virginia, 1950, as amended; Subject Matter: Mountain Valley Pipeline; Purpose: Consultation
with Legal Counsel Regarding Zoning/Federal Preemption Issues. She submitted a written copy
of her statement as well as an email supporting why she felt it should be discussed in Open
Session. And she did not want the misperception with the BOS nor the public that she has
threatened litigation.
Deborah Dix of the Chatham -Blairs District, commented that the BOS previously held
Closed Session during their Business meeting that began at 7:00 pm and now they are holding
them during their Work Sessions that begin at 4:30 pm. Ms. Dix also stated she attended the
Legislative Committee meeting where those committee members discussed whether or not to
remove the section concerning the Code of Conduct. Ms. Dix said she felt it should stay because
it was a way for removing a member of a board who was violating the Conduct of Code section,
and who the citizens did not vote for but the Board of Supervisors had appointed. So, she hoped
the Board did not choose to remove the Code of Conduct from their Bylaws.
Several members of the Fire and Rescue Association attended to voice their concerns
over the Item 12 on the Agenda; Fire and Rescue Request to complete the outfitting with
equipment for the Rescue One Truck. Mike Neal of the Dan River District, and Chief of the
Ringgold Fire Department stated that exactly one year ago he was present at the Board meeting
P16
Board of Supervisors
Business Meeting
September 19, 2017
where it was approved to purchase the truck. The Board knew the truck would need to be
outfitted with equipment in order for it to be used. And somewhere between then and now, other
requests have put in front of outfitting the truck. The truck is owned by the Board of
Supervisors, not the Fire and Rescue Association, stated Mr. Neal, and if the Board was not
going to buy the equipment to outfit it and make it usable for rescue purposes, they should not
have bought it. Larry Strader, Chief of the Laurel Grove Fire and Rescue, and former Chief of
the Special Ops Team and current member of that same unit, echoed the comments of Mr. Neal.
Daniel Giles, of the Chatham 15 Rescue, and current Chief of the Special Ops Team explained
the Team consisted of 30 members who collectively were certified in all manners of rescue
disciplines, and that this truck was a needed and valued assess for the County, but only if the
County finished outfitting it.
No one else signed up to speak.
Cory Stephen, Program Coordinator for Parks and Recreation, introduced the 2017/18
Youth Commission members: Lauryn Jones -Gretna High School, Kelci Pool -Tunstall High
School, Conner Weaver -Tunstall High School, Dylan Sparks -Chatham High School, Kendall
Moore -Tunstall High School, Savanah Reed -Tunstall High School, and Joshua Neal -Tunstall

escape a home fire situation; and
WHEREAS, a home fire escape plan includes two exits from every room in the home; a path to
the outside from each exit; smoke alarms in all required locations; and a meeting place outside
where everyone in the home will meet upon exiting; and

WHEREAS, practicing a home fire escape plan twice a year ensures that everyone in the
household knows what to do in a real fire situation;
WHEREAS, Pittsylvania County's first responders are dedicated to reducing the occurrence of
home fires and home fire injuries through prevention and protection education; and

Monument Marker, which the Board of Supervisors allowed the Northside High School Alumni

specifically sectioned off for the purpose of allowing the Alumni to erect the monument when
the County sold GPIN #2530-39-4367 to Riverside Plumbing in 2005. The Alumni unveiled the
completed marker September 1, 2006. As required by Virginia Code § 15.2-1800(B), the County
duly advertised the notice of public hearing in the Chatham Star Tribune on August 30 and
September 6, 2017. Fair market value on the property identified as GPIN #2530-38-6169 is

Board of Supervisors
Business Meeting
September 19, 2017
Public Hearing to receive citizen input on an ordinance establishing a deadline for
submission of applications for equalization of real estate assessment and for the Board of
Equalization to complete its deliberations on such applications, prescribing the form for
such applications, and permitting the electronic filing of applications.
Mr. Warren opened the public hearing at 8:14 pm. Mr. Hunt explained Virginia Code §
58.1-3378 authorizes the Pittsylvania County Board of Supervisors (`BOS") to provide by
Ordinance the date by which Board of Equalization ("BOE") appeal applications must be made
by property owners. Said Code Section also allows the BOS to set the date by which the BOE
must complete all appeals. In the past, BOE appointment by the Pittsylvania County Circuit
Court Judge have been for the twelve (12) month period of January 1 — December 31, after the
effective date of the assessment for which they were appointed. This can result in the BOE being
called back into session after having completed the set of hearings should a taxpayer wish to
appeal. Setting a limitation on the appeal application date and the final date the BOE can dispose
of the appeals brings continuity to the entire process, and allows the County to have sufficient
clerical assistance to meet the notification requirements. Said change, will also pass the
information back to the Commissioner of the Revenue's ("COR") Office in a more timely
fashion; thereby, allowing for the making of any corrections needed to second half billings.
After the Circuit Court appointment and training, the BOE should convene by mid-March and set
a schedule for hearings. Said hearings will begin early April, and the BOE will complete its
work by August 31, 2018.
No one signed up to speak and Mr. Warren closed the hearing at 8:17 pm. Motion was
made by Mr. Blackstock, seconded by Mr. Davis, to approve the Ordinance as presented, stating
that the last day to accept appeal applications as June 22, 2018 (thereby, giving enough time to
meet the forty-five (45) day appeal notice requirement per Virginia Code § 58.1-3331), and set
the last day for the BOE to complete its work as August 31, 2018. The following Roll Call Vote
was recorded: Mr. Barber -Yes; Mr. Hagerman -Yes; Mr. Blackstock -Yes; Mr. Scearce-Yes; Mr.
Davis -Yes; Mr. Barksdale -Yes; and Mr. Warren -Yes. Mr. Blackstock's motion was
unanimously approved by the Board.

Mr. Smitherman explained that at their August 15, 2017 meeting, the Board held a public hearing
concerning the disposal of the following two (2) parcels of publicly owned property via public
auction as follows: (1) Lot #1: 2.1 acres located on SR 792/Millstream Drive, Gretna, Virginia;
GPIN #2530-38-8407, and (2) Lot #2: 3.04 acres located on SR 792/Millstream Drive, Gretna,
Virginia; GPIN #2530-48-0335 . County Staff was approved to issue on Govdeals.com the land
parcels in Gretna for auction. Fair market value is $51.400.00. The County received 6 bids, with
the highest being $20,500.00, which did not meet market value. If the Board chooses, the
property can be sold to the high bid of $20,500.00, or resubmitted for sale through auction or
other means.
Motion was made by Mr. Barksdale, seconded by Mr. Hagerman, to approve selling to
the highest bid of $20,500.00, which was Elba Missionary Baptist Church, and directing the
County Attorney to begin the process of transferring the property to the church. The following
Roll Call Vote was recorded: Mr. Barber -Yes; Mr. Hagerman -Yes; Mr. Blackstock -Yes; Mr.
Scearce-Yes; Mr. Davis -Yes; Mr. Barksdale -Yes; and Mr. Warren -Yes. Mr. Barksdale's motion
was unanimously approved by the Board.

Motion was made by Mr. Blackstock, seconded by Mr. Barber, to approve Danville-
Pittsylvania Community Services' FY2018 Performance Contract Renewal and Revision, and the
following Roll Call Vote was recorded: Mr. Barber -Yes; Mr. Hagerman -Yes; Mr. Blackstock -
Yes; Mr. Scearce-Yes; Mr. Davis -Yes; Mr. Barksdale -Yes; and Mr. Warren -Yes. Mr.

Mr. Smitherman explained that on September 30, 2015, the Board of Supervisors
approved Carryover Funds for a vehicle for the Fire & Rescue Association. This vehicle was
purchased in October 2016. The Association requested an additional $105,000 to the Rescue 1
account during the FY18 budget process; the request was denied since there was already
$106,000 in the account as of April 1, 2017. The account has been spent down to $31,054 over
the past four (4) month. Last month the Association requested $116,425 ofunsued FY16 funds
be carried -over to FYI for additional upfit; this money was instead used to fund the new Public
Safety Coordinator position and the additional EMS unit for Northern Pittsylvania County.
Please be aware that the County has a mutual aid agreement with the City of Danville to provide
heavy rescue services if a matter arises that the County agencies are unable to handle.
Dean Fowler, President of the Fire & Rescue Association, stated that without the
additional upfitting of Rescue 1, the truck could not be used for its purpose. The truck was the
property of the County, not the Fire & Rescue Association, or any squad, and if the County
wasn't going to upfit it, then it should not have purchased the truck.

Mr. Blackstock noted that with the closing of Altavista EMS, and having to contract
additional coverage with Regional One in order to cover emergency calls in that area of the
County, used funds budgeted for Fire & Rescue.
Motion was made by Mr. Blackstock, seconded by Mr. Barksdale, to deny the Fire &
Rescue Association's request of $116,425.00 for equipment and the following Roll Call Vote
was recorded: Mr. Barber -No; Mr. Hagerman -Yes; Mr. Blackstock -Yes; Mr. Scearce-Yes; Mr.
Davis -No; Mr. Barksdale -Yes; and Mr. Warren -Yes. Mr. Blackstock's motion was approved by
a 5 to 2 majority vote of the Board, with Mr. Barber and Mr. Davis opposing.
Ms. Van Der Hyde explained the Pittsylvania County School Board recently entered a
lease with First Citizens Bank to purchase 6 passenger buses, 1 special needs bus and 3
maintenance -service vehicles. 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 will need to be maintained on the County's books and an
appropriation will 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 10
buses/vehicles to be used in the Pupil Transportation Department. First Citizens Bank was the
bank providing the lowest rate of 1.51%. The total amount financed was $678,714.00 and will
be financed for 3 years. The 2018 lease payment has already been appropriated to the School
Board's 2018 budget. For auditing purposes, staff recommended that the Board of Supervisors
ratify the lease and appropriate $678,714.00 to Fund 210 for the purpose of purchasing 10
buses/vehicles and have these funds maintained by the Treasurer's Office.
Motion was made by Mr. Blackstock, seconded by Mr. Davis, to ratify the attached lease
and appropriate $678,714.00 to Fund 210 for the purpose of purchasing 10 buses/vehicles and
have these funds maintained by the Treasurer's Office, and the following Roll Call Vote was
recorded: Mr. Barber -Yes; Mr. Hagerman -Yes; Mr. Blackstock -Yes; Mr. Scearce-Yes; Mr.
Davis -Yes; Mr. Barksdale -Yes; and Mr. Warren -Yes. Mr. Blackstock's motion was
unanimously approved by the Board.
Ms. Van Der Hyde explained the Board of Supervisors approves the School Board budget
by category during the budget process each year. Since the budget process occurs early in the
year, the Schools will often be notified of additional funds they will be receiving during the next
fiscal year that were not anticipated during the original budget process. Below, as Ms. Van Der
Hyde presented, is the adopted budget from the Pittsylvania County School Board by category.
The bottom line of this budget is the amount approved by the Pittsylvania County Board of
Supervisors on April 3, 2017 in the amount of $88,447,941 (School Operating Budget). Staff
received a letter from the School Board requesting changes to their approved budget totaling
$720,683.60. This change is needed to properly reflect additional state, local and federal funds
that the School Board will be receiving during FY2018. The following budget amendments need
to be made in order to mirror the School Board budget. These changes will be funded by state
funds of $343,547.70, local funds of $123,687.00 and federal funds of $253,448.90 for a grand
total of $720,683.60 (please see the attached list for specific sources of funds). None of the local
funds are coming from the County's General Fund.

date that is one year after the first day of the medically necessary leave of

are excluded from an Employee's income under Code Section 105, a
Dependent includes a child of a Participant who as of the end of the

Participant, an individual who is lawfully placed with the Participant for
legal adoption by the Participant, or an eligible foster child who is placed

SECTION III
ELIGIBILITY, ENROLLMENT, AND PARTICIPATION
3.01 ELIGIBILITY: Each Employee of the Employer who has met the eligibility requirements of Item C of
the Adoption Agreement will be eligible to participate in the Plan on the Entry Date specified or the
Effective Date of the Plan, whichever is later. Dependent eligibility to receive benefits under any of
the plans listed in Item F of the Adoption Agreement will be described in the documents governing
those benefit plans. To the extent a Dependent is eligible to receive benefits under a plan listed in Item
F, an Eligible Employee may elect coverage under this Plan with respect to such Dependent.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, life insurance coverage on the life of a Dependent may not be elected
under this Plan.
3.02 ENROLLMENT: An eligible Employee may enroll (or re -enroll) in the Plan by submitting to the
Employer, during an enrollment period, an Election Form which specifies his or her benefit elections for
the Plan Year and which meets such standards for completeness and accuracy as the Employer may
establish. A Participant's Election Form shall be completed prior to the beginning of the Plan Year, and
P39
shall not be effective prior to the date such form is submitted to the Employer. Any Election Form
submitted by a Participant in accordance with this Section shall remain in effect until the earlier of the
following dates: the date the Participant terminates participation in the Plan; or, the effective date of a
subsequently filed Election Form.
A Participant's right to elect certain benefit coverage shall be limited hereunder to the extent such rights
are limited in the Policy. Furthermore, a Participant will not be entitled to revoke an election after a
period of coverage has commenced and to make a new election with respect to the remainder of the
period of coverage unless both the revocation and the new election are on account of and consistent with
a change in status, or other allowable events, as determined by Section 125 of the Internal Revenue
Code and the regulations thereunder.
3.03 TERMINATION OF PARTICIPATION: A Participant shall continue to participate in the Plan until the
earlier of the following dates:
a. The date the Participant terminates employment by death, disability, retirement or other
separation from service; or
b. The date the Participant ceases to work for the Employer as an eligible Employee; or
C. The date of termination of the Plan; or
d. The first date a Participant fails to pay required contributions while on a leave of absence.
3.04 SEPARATION FROM SERVICE: The existing elections of an Employee who separates from the
employment service of the Employer shall be deemed to be automatically terminated and the Employee
will not receive benefits for the remaining portion of the Plan Year.
3.05 QUALIFYING LEAVE UNDER FAMILY LEAVE ACT: Notwithstanding any provision to the
contrary in this Plan, if a Participant goes on a qualifying unpaid leave under the Family and Medical
Leave Act of 1993 (FMLA), to the extent required by the FMLA, the Employer will continue to
maintain the Participant's existing coverage under the Plan with respect to benefits under Section V and
Section Vlll of the Plan on the same terms and conditions as though he were still an active Employee. If
the Employee opts to continue his coverage, the Employee may pay his Elective Contribution with after-
tax dollars while on leave (or pre-tax dollars to the extent he receives compensation during the leave),
or the Employee may be given the option to pre -pay all or a portion of his Elective Contribution for the
expected duration of the leave on a pre-tax salary reduction basis out of his pre -leave compensation
(including unused sick days or vacation) by making a special election to that effect prior to the date such
compensation would normally be made available to him (provided, however, that pre-tax dollars may
not be utilized to fund coverage during the next plan year), or via other arrangements agreed upon
between the Employee and the Administrator (e.g., the Administrator may fund coverage during the
leave and withhold amounts upon the Employee's return). Upon return from such leave, the Employee
will be pennitted to reenter the Plan on the same basis the Employee was participating in the Plan prior
to his leave, or as otherwise required by the FMLA.
SECTION IV
CONTRIBUTIONS
4.01 EMPLOYER CONTRIBUTIONS: The Employer may pay the costs of the benefits elected under the
Plan with funds from the sources indicated in Item E of the Adoption Agreement. The Employer
12
P40
Contribution may be made up of Non -Elective Contributions and/or Elective Contributions authorized
by each Participant on a salary reduction basis.
4.02 IRREVOCABILITY OF ELECTIONS: A Participant may file a written election form with the
Administrator before the end of the current Plan Year revising the rate of his contributions or
discontinuing such contributions effective as of the first day of the next following Plan Year. The
Participant's Elective Contributions will automatically terminate as of the date his employment
terminates. Except as provided in this Section 4.02 and Section 4.03, a Participant's election under the
Plan is irrevocable for the duration of the plan year to which it relates. The exceptions to the
irrevocability requirement which would permit a mid -year election change in benefits and the salary
reduction amount elected are set out in the Treasury regulations promulgated under Code Section 125,
which include the following:
(a) Change in Status. A Participant may change or revoke his election under the Plan upon the
occurrence of a valid change in status, but only if such change or termination is made on account of, and
is consistent with, the change in status in accordance with the Treasury regulations promulgated under
Section 125. The Employer, in its sole discretion as Administrator, shall determine whether a requested
change is on account of and consistent with a change in status, as follows:
(1) Change in Employee's legal marital status, including marriage, divorce, death of spouse, legal
separation, and annulment;
(2) Change in number of Dependents, including birth, adoption, placement for adoption, and death;
(3) Change in employment status, including any employment status change affecting benefit
eligibility of the Employee, spouse or Dependent, such as termination or commencement of
employment, change in hours, strike or lockout, a commencement or return from an unpaid
leave of absence, and a change in work site. If the eligibility for either the cafeteria Plan or any
underlying benefit plans of the Employer of the Employee, spouse or Dependent relies on the
employment status of that individual, and there is a change in that individual's employment
status resulting in gaining or losing eligibility under the Plan, this constitutes a valid change in
status. This category only applies if benefit eligibility is lost or gained as a result of the event.
If an Employee terminates and is rehired within 30 days, the Employee is required to step back
into his previous election. If the Employee terminates and is rehired after 30 days, the
Employee may either step back into the previous election or make a new election;
(4) Dependent satisfies, or ceases to satisfy, Dependent eligibility requirements due to attainment
of age, gain or loss of student status, marriage or any similar circumstances; and
(5) Residence change of Employee, spouse or Dependent, affecting the Employee's eligibility for
coverage.
(b) Special Enrollment Rights. If a Participant or his or her spouse or Dependent is entitled to special
enrollment rights under a group health plan (other than an excepted benefit), as required by HIPAA
under Code Section 9801(£), then a Participant may revoke a prior election for group health plan
coverage and make a new election, provided that the election change corresponds with such HIPAA
special enrollment right. As required by HIPAA, a special enrollment right will arise in the
following circumstances: (i) a Participant or his or her spouse or Dependent declined to enroll in
group health plan coverage because he or she had coverage, and eligibility for such coverage is
subsequently lost because the coverage was provided under COBRA and the COBRA coverage was
exhausted, or the coverage was non -COBRA coverage and the coverage terminated due to loss of
eligibility for coverage or the employer contributions for the coverage were terminated; (ii) a new
Dependent is acquired as a result of marriage, birth, adoption, or placement for adoption; (iii) the
Participant's or his or her spouse's or Dependent's coverage under a Medicaid plan or under a
13
P41
children's health insurance program (CHIP) is terminated as a result of loss of eligibility for such
coverage and the Participant requests coverage under the group health plan not later than 60 days
after the date of termination of such coverage; or (iv) the Participant, his or her spouse or Dependent
becomes eligible for a state premium assistance subsidy from a Medicaid plan or through a state
children's insurance program with respect to coverage under the group health plan and the
Participant requests coverage under the group health plan not later than 60 days after the date the
Participant, his or her spouse or Dependent is determined to be eligible for such assistance. An
election change under (iii) or (iv) of this provision must be requested within 60 days after the
termination of Medicaid or state health plan coverage or the determination of eligibility for a slate
premium assistance subsidy, as applicable. Special enrollment rights under the health insurance plan
will be determined by the terms of the health insurance plan.
(c) Certain Judgments. Decrees or Orders. If a judgment, decree or order resulting from a divorce, legal
separation, annulment or change in legal custody (including a qualified medical child support order
[QMCSO]) requires accident or health coverage for a Participant's child or for a foster child who is
a dependent of the Participant, the Participant may have a mid -year election change to add or drop
coverage consistent with the Order.
(d) Entitlement to Medicare or Medicaid. If a Participant, Participant's spouse or Participant's
Dependent who is enrolled in an accident or health plan of the Employer becomes entitled to
Medicare or Medicaid (other than coverage consisting solely of benefits under Section 1928 of the
Social Security Act providing for pediatric vaccines), the Participant may cancel or reduce health
coverage under the Employer's Plan. Loss of Medicare or Medicaid entitlement would allow the
Participant to add health coverage under the Employer's Plan.
(e) Family Medical Leave Act. If an Employee is taking leave under the rules of the Family Medical
Leave Act, the Employee may revoke previous elections and re-elect benefits upon return to work.
(f) COBRA Qualifying. If an Employee has a COBRA qualifying event (a reduction in hours of
the Employee, or a Dependent ceases eligibility), the Employee may increase his pre-tax
contributions for coverage under the Employer's Plan if a COBRA event occurs with respect to the
Employee, the Employee's spouse or Dependent. The COBRA rule does not apply to COBRA
coverage under another Employer's Plan.
(g) Changes in Eligibility for Adult Children. To the extent the Employer amends a plan listed in Item
F of the Adoption Agreement that provides benefits that are excluded from an Employee's income
under Code Section 105 to provide that Adult Children (as defined in Section 2.04(c)) are eligible to
receive benefits under the plan, an Eligible Employee may make or change an election under this
Plan to add coverage for the Adult Child and to make any corresponding change to the Eligible
Employee's coverage that is consistent with adding coverage for the Adult Child.
(h) Cancellation due to reduction in hours of service. A Participant may cancel group health plan (as
that term is defined in Code Section 9832(a)) coverage, except Health FSA coverage, under the
Employer's Plan if both of the following conditions are met:
(i) The Participant has been in an employment status under which the Participant was
reasonably expected to average at least 30 hours of service per week and there is a
change in that Participant's status so that the Participant will reasonably be expected to
14
P42
average less than 30 hours of service per week after the change, even if that reduction
does not result in the Participant ceasing to be eligible under the group health plan; and
(ii) The cancellation of the election of coverage under the Employer's group health plan
coverage corresponds to the intended enrollment of the Participant, and any related
individuals who cease coverage due to the cancellation, in another plan that provides
minimum essential coverage with the new coverage effective no later than the first day of
the second month following the month that includes the date the original coverage is
cancelled.
(i) Cancellation due to enrollment in a Qualified Health Plan. A participant may cancel group health
plan (as that term is defined in Code Section 9832(a)) coverage, except Health FSA coverage, under
the Employer's Plan if both of the following conditions are met:
(i) The Participant is eligible for a Special Enrollment Period (as as defined in Code Section
9801(f)) to enroll in a Qualified Health Plan(as described in section 1311 of the Patient
Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA)) through a competitive marketplace
established under section 1311(c) of PPACA (Marketplace), pursuant to guidance issued
by the Department of Health and Human Services and any other applicable guidance, or
the Participant seeks to enroll in a Qualified Health Plan through a Marketplace during
the Marketplace's annual open enrollment period; and
(ii) The cancellation of the election of coverage under the Employer's group health plan
coverage corresponds to the intended enrollment of the Participant and any related
individuals who cease coverage due to the cancellation in a Qualified Health Plan
through a Marketplace for new coverage that is effective beginning no later than the day
immediately following the last day of the original coverage that is cancelled.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4.02, the change in election rules in this Section
4.02 do not apply to the Medical Expense Reimbursement Plan, or may not be modified with respect to
the Medical Expense Reimbursement Plan if the Plan is being administered by a Recordkeeper other
than the Employer, unless the Employer and the Recordkeeper otherwise agree in writing.
4.03 OTHER EXCEPTIONS TO IRREVOCABILITY OF ELECTIONS. Other exceptions to the
irrevocability of election requirement permit mid -year election changes and apply to all qualified
benefits except for Medical Expense Reimbursement Plans, as follows:
(a) Change in Cost. If the cost of a benefit package option under the Plan significantly increases during
the plan year, Participants may (i) make a corresponding increase in their salary reduction amount,
(ii) revoke their elections and make a prospective election under another benefit option offering
similar coverage, or (iii) revoke election completely if no similar coverage is available, including in
spouse or dependent's plan. If the cost significantly decreases, employees may elect coverage even
if they had not previously participated and may drop their previous election for a similar coverage
option in order to elect the benefit package option that has decreased in cost during the year. If the
increased or decreased cost of a benefit package option under the Plan is insignificant, the
participant's salary reduction amount shall be automatically adjusted.
(b) Significant curtailment of coverage.
P43
15
(i) With no loss of coverage. If the coverage under a benefit package option is significantly
curtailed or ceases during the Plan Year, affected Participants may revoke their elections for the
curtailed coverage and make a new prospective election for coverage under another benefit
package option providing similar coverage.
(ii) With loss of coverage. if there is a significant curtailment of coverage with loss of coverage,
affected Participants may revoke election for curtailed coverage and make a new prospective
election for coverage under another benefit package option providing similar coverage, or drop
coverage if no similar benefit package option is available.
(c) Addition or Significant Improvement of Benefit Package Option. If during the Plan Year a new
benefit package option is added or significantly improved, eligible employees, whether
currently participating or not, may revoke their existing election and elect the newly added or
newly improved option.
(d) Change in Coverage of a Spouse or Dependent Under Another Employer's Plan. If there is a
change in coverage of a spouse, former spouse, or Dependent under another employer's plan, a
Participant may make a prospective election change that is on account of and corresponds with
a change made under the plan of the spouse or Dependent. This rule applies if (1) mandatory
changes in coverage are initiated by either the insurer of spouse's plan or by the spouse's
employer, or (2) optional changes are initiated by the spouse's employer or by the spouse
through open enrollment.
(e) Loss of coverage under other group health coverage. If during the Plan Year coverage is lost
under any group health coverage sponsored by a governmental or educational institution, a
Participant may prospectively change his or her election to add group health coverage for the
affected Participant or his or her spouse or dependent.
4.04 CASH BENEFIT: Available amounts not used for the purchase of benefits under this Plan may be
considered a cash benefit under the Plan payable to the Participant as taxable income to the extent

benefit manager), at the time and point of sale, provides information to verify to
the Recordkeeper (including electronically by e-mail, the internet, intranet, or
telephone) that the charge is for a medical expense, the charge is fully
substantiated without the need for submission of a receipt or further review.
b. Status of Charges. All charges to a Debit Card, other than co-payanents and real-time

the improper payment, the Employer will have the amount of the improper
payment withheld from the Eligible Employee's wages or other compensation to
the extent consistent with applicable law.
(iii) Third, if the improper payment still remains outstanding, the Plan may utilize a
claim substitution or offset approach to resolve improper claims payments.
(iv) If the above correction efforts prove unsuccessful, or are otherwise unavailable,
the Eligible Employee will remain indebted to the Employer for the amount of the
improper payment. In that event and consistent with its business practices, the
Employer may treat the payment as it would any other business indebtedness.

may deein necessary, in their sole discretion, to ensure that further violations of

necessary to decide the appeal, except that any medical expert consulted in connection with the
appeal will be different from any expert consulted in connection with the initial claim. (The
identity of a medical expert consulted in connection with the Participant's appeal will be

Employees. If, in the judgment of the Administrator, more than 25% of the total nontaxable benefits are
provided to Key Employees, or the Plan discriminates in any other maturer (or is at risk of possible
discrimination), then, notwithstanding any other provision contained herein to the contrary, and, in
accordance with the applicable provisions of the Code, the Administrator shall, after written notification
to affected Participants, reduce or adjust such contributions and benefits under the Plan as shall be
necessary to insure that, in the judgment of the Administrator, the Plan shall not be discriminatory.
13.09 ERISA. The Plan shall be construed, enforced, and administered and the validity determined in
accordance with the applicable provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (as
amended), the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (as amended), and the laws of the State indicated in the
Adoption Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the provisions of ERISA will
not apply to this Plan if the Plan is exempt from coverage under ERISA. Should any provisions be

the provision determined to be void.

SUMMARY:
Pittsylvania County and the City of Danville, through the Danville Pittsylvania Regional Industrial Facility
Authority, have applied to the U.S. Department of Transportation TIGER grant program for rail
infrastructure in the Berry Hill Industrial Park and Chesapeake Port improvements. These projects will
generally benefit the Berry Hill Park, but will specifically benefit Project Lignum. Project Lignum involves
80 new jobs and $120 million in capital investment. A letter of support is needed from Pittsylvania County
for this application. The TIGER application was due October 16, 2017, so the letter of support had to be
signed on October 12, 2017.
FINANCIAL IMPACT AND FUNDING SOURCE:
There is no local match required for this particular grant
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the TIGER letter of support, with signature from the Board Chairman be ratified.
MOTION:
I move that the US DOT TIGER grant letter of support for Rail Infrastructure and Chesapeake Port
Improvements, dated October 12, 2017, be approved and ratified.

RE: TIGER Application for Danville Rail Infrastructure and Chesapeake Port Improvements
Dear Secretary Chao:
As Chairman for the Pittsylvania County Board of Supervisors, I am pleased to offer my
strong support for the TIGER grant application for federal funding submitted by the Danville-
Pittsylvania Regional Industrial Development Authority (the "Authority"), the City of Danville,
Virginia and Pittsylvania County, Virginia. Funding will support, among other endeavors, the
construction of a rail spur serving the Berry Hill Industrial Park (the "Park") located in rural
southern Virginia.
The Danville-Pittsylvania region, which continues to struggle with high rates of
unemployment and low median household incomes, is one of the most economically challenged
areas in the Commonwealth of Virginia. The Park, which the Authority is currently developing,
has the potential to create the sustained economic growth necessary to positively transform the
area. At present, the Park has no rail connection. The construction of a rail spur at the Park
funded by a TIGER grant would greatly contribute to the Park's attractiveness to businesses
seeking to ship their products by rail. By enticing new manufacturers to locate at the Park,
implementation of the proposed plan would result in the creation and continued support of new
high -paying jobs. Additionally, the construction of a wood pellet facility in the region would
provide a direct economic impact to more than 5,000 farm land owners in Pittsylvania county
and contiguous Virginia counties in the form of jobs and additional timber market opportunities.

It is my hope that you will give favorable consideration and fund the Danville Rail

economic competitiveness of the disadvantaged Danville-Pittsylvania region would greatly
benefit from the implementation of the proposed plan.

SUMMARY:
The Olde Dominion Agricultural Foundation (ODAF) proposes to apply to the Tobacco Commission's
Agribusiness Grant program for Phase 2 of a Livestock Expansion project at the Olde Dominion Agricultural
Complex. The Foundation also plans to apply for grant funding for the same project to the Danville Regional

Supervisors to help support their grant applications.

Tobacco Commission's Agribusiness Grant program does not have an allocation system, so there is no
conflict with any County Tobacco grant applications.

THE OLDE DOMINION AGRICULTURAL FOUNDATION
Phase II Livestock Expansion
Qlde Dominion Agricultural Complex
The Olde Dominion Agricultural Foundation's (C)DAF) mission is to promote and support
regional agriculture by offering a community based venue to education and entertain. The
Foundation's mission defines its purpose and sets the parameters for its work. Its mission
directs the organization to advocate for agriculture and serve as its key supporter throughout
the region. In addition, the board is charged to use its facilities and resources for educational
programming and entertainment that benefits the community it serves. The Foundation, in
collaboration with regional groups, rapidly built the complex as the hub for fostering a deeper
understanding of the importance of regional agriculture and the exploration of agricultural best
practices and production opportunities. Driven by its mission, the Foundation continues to
work to cultivate the next generation of producers through education and market
opportunities. Such opportunities require expanding the livestock facilities for additional
program offerings for the area's agricultural producers.
The ODAF board desires to expand the Olde Dominion Agricultural Complex facilities to
enable them to support a number of comprehensive programs to benefit livestock producers.
The Phase II Livestock Expansion of facilities at the Olde Dominion Agricultural Complex (ODAC)
includes a new livestock barn (100' X 125') to hold up to 150 cattle, an associated livestock
penning system that will be used in all the facilities, and a cover for the existing warm up ring
(150' X 75') that was constructed as part of Phase I which will increase the livestock housing
capabilities.
The Olde Dominion Agricultural Foundation Phase II Livestock Expansion has four
primary objectives. Three of the objectives are focused on increasing income for
livestock producers in the region surrounding the ODAC. The fourth objective is to
increase tourism income to Pittsylvania County by increasing the number of visitors from
outside of the region who come to ODAC for agriculture -related events.

THF. OT.DE DOMINION AGRICUL'T'URAL FOUNDATION
Objective 1: Collaborate with regional Virginia Cooperative Extension agents and
cattle associations to use the facility to co -mingle calves and increase participation in
the Virginia Quality Assured Marketing Program.
Objective 2: Improve the genetics of cattle herds in the ODAC region by offering
seed stock and female sales to farmers, as well as determine the feasibility of
offering a pilot breeding program on-site.
Objective 3: Expand goat marketing and breed shows in Southside Virginia.
Determine feasibility of offering sheep markets.
Objective 4: Attract state and national livestock shows to ODAC.
The Olde Dominion Agricultural Complex has already proven itself a vital asset to the
region and a wise investment for the Tobacco Commission and the Danville Regional
Foundation. By completing the Phase II Livestock Expansion, the ODAC positions itself to
become one of the finest agricultural centers in the Commonwealth. In addition, the expansion
encourages collaboration between existing county and state organizations, agricultural
producers, and agricultural associations to provide exceptional educational opportunities to
producers, promote agribusiness expansion and encourage agritourism in Southside Virginia.

SUMMARY:
In accordance to the purchase and sale of the Chatham movie theater building, Parco International /
Doomsday Tackle was to improve the exterior of the building and property, clean and remove debris from
inside the building, and conduct extensive demolition while also stabilizing the building's condition. This
activity is associated with Doomsday Tackle's new retail and design facility. In addition, they were to hire
first employees to oversee the design work and perform marketing and sales. As of October 1, 2017, this
preliminary work and hiring has been completed and Staff is requesting that the Board grant a $25,000 grant
(funds to come from the building's original purchase and sale) to Parco International / Doomsday Tackle for
the next phase of improvements. A final $25,000 grant (from the building's original purchase and sale) will
be received once the facility receives all necessary Certificates of Occupancy and is open to the public for a
period of 6 months. This project has taken a non -revenue performing property and has placed it back on the
tax rolls, and will create an additional attraction for Chatham Main Street. The facility is expected to be open
to the public by 2nd Qtr. 2018.
FINANCIAL IMPACT AND FUNDING SOURCE:
Funds coming from original $50,000 purchase and sale of building, per original purchase agreement.
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve $25,000 grant from Parco International / Doomsday Tackle
MOTION:
I move to approve a performance grant in the amount of $25,000 to Parco International and Doomsday
Tackle for meeting their first project milestone as they establish an interactive retail tackle and design center
in the old Chatham movie theatre.

SUMMARY:
Pittsylvania County and the City of Danville are working with an economic development project with the
code name of Project Lignum. This project will be located in the Berry Hill Industrial Park, a jointly
administered property owned by the Danville Pittsylvania Regional Industrial Facility Authority. This project
is expected to create 80 new jobs with an average annual salary of $41,513 and a total capital investment of
$120 million. As a very large electric user, this project will also greatly benefit the development of the Berry
Hill Park by providing power credits to help fund new electrical infrastructure. A requirement of this deal is
that DPRIFA supply a graded pad, ready for construction. The estimated cost of creating this pad site is
$5,641,625. We are proposing that DPRIFA submit an application to the Tobacco Commission Southern
Area Economic Development Grant Program to help fund this project. A Resolution of Support is needed for
the application. There will also need to be a Resolution of Support from DPRIFA.
FINANCIAL IMPACT AND FUNDING SOURCE:
Tobacco Commission grants require dollar for dollar matching funds from other sources. After utilizing all
other available funding sources, it is expected that there will be a local requirement of approximately $1.1
million from Pittsylvania County, and the same from the City of Danville. County matching funds would
need to come from the unassigned fund balance, or through a line item in the 2018-19 County Budget.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommendation is to approve Resolution 2017-10-03, supporting an application to the Tobacco
Commission. If the grant request is approved, a Grant Agreement form will come back to the Board for
approval.
MOTION:
I move that we approve Resolution 2017-10-03 for a Tobacco Commission Southern Area Economic
Development Grant that will be used for site improvements necessary for Project Lignum.

REVIEWED BY: !f_dg
SUMMARY:
As a result of recent announcements such as Unison Tube, LLC, the region no longer has buildings available
for advanced manufacturers. Currently, the County is engaged with 6-8 advanced manufacturing companies,
all of which seek an existing 40,000 sq. ft. facility to reduce commercial start-up time. These aerospace and
automotive companies have visited and are interested in the area due to the precision machining and
advanced manufacturing workforce programs. To address this outstanding issue, Staff proposes to utilize the
Tobacco Commission Southern Area Economic Development Grant Program to pay for half the cost of a
shell building, or roughly $1.5M. This grant must be matched dollar -to -dollar in either public or private
funds. To reduce financial burden to the County, Staff has reached out to several private development
companies and has determined there is an opportunity to finance the remaining $1.5M. The County will
create an RFP and solicit offers from private firms to finance and construct a shell building and enter into 5 -
year lease -to -purchase agreement with the County (which could be terminated at any point once a company
purchases or locates in the building). Any subsequent RFP, business terms, and/or private firm selection
would need to be reviewed and approved by the Board. The proposed facility would be located in Cane
Creek Centre. In order to apply, the Board must approve and submit a Resolution of Support.
FINANCIAL IMPACT AND FUNDING SOURCE:
No immediate financial impact is associated with the application for $1.5 M. However, once a contract is
signed with a private building firm, the County would be responsible for paying a yearly lease for up to 5
years; with an agreed building purchase at the end of year 5 if a tenant is not in the facility. This approach
allows the County to budget funds over a longer period of time, while recruiting a tenant to acquire the
facility.
To approve the Resolution of Support for a Tobacco Commission Southern Area Economic Development
Grant that will be utilized in the construction of a 40,000 sq. ft. shell building in Cane Creek Centre.
MOTION
I move that we approve Resolution 2017-10-02 for a Tobacco Commission Southern Area Economic
Development Grant that will be used to construct a 40,000 sq. ft. shell building in Cane Creek Centre.
