There are two key points to consider: 1. The Town of Onancock had no employees ori immediate family members lost to COVID-19 and while we modified our operations significantly to keep employees and customers safe, we continued to support our a. The first order of business was to create an Infectious Disease Protocol that Town Council adopted quickly to provide standards and guidance to staff. This Protocol has shifted as newi information has become available and currently all operations are back to pre-COVID standards except we ask that unvaccinated persons wear face coverings when inside Town buildings or when in contact with Town b. Socially distancing while working is nearly impossible for those who work ini the water, wastewater, and street departments. We owe these teams special recognition for continuing to serve the public throughout the pandemic. The office staff had flexibility in working remotely on staggered days. To accomplish this we needed to make investments in technology. These funds were made possible by Town Council appropriating state and federal funds distributed to the Town through the County as our Fund appropriations, in addition to thet technology to allow for safe, remote working also businesses and residents consistently and proudly. employees. fiscal agent. provided: 1. Personal Protective Equipment and sanitizing products; 2. Safe air quality in the Town Hall and Police department; 3. Small business grants; 4. Utility Arrears grants. 2. The Town of Onancock did not lose one business due to the pandemic. a. The appropriation of local grant funds, and the Town securing a very large grant to distribute to local businesses was, as the Post reported from al local business owner, "Were it not for the grants and - Securing the DHCD Small Business Recovery Act was a massive undertaking and remains a complicated and time-consuming project, but one well worth the effort when the impact of the investment is valued by the businesses as evidenced by the quotes and positive feedback. ii. The Town secured funds from the State, the County, and new federal grants through FEMA. lii. The Town also created two new communication systems to help share information about the Town viai text message and via email. We continue to encourage residents and businesses to share their preferred contact information to facilitate quick and consistent communication from iv. The new American Rescue Protection Act of 2021 will distribute more than $1 million for Town use and will be another project that will take a significant investment of staff time. Itwill be worth it when we see the strategic use of the funds and how they will have a positive assistance oft the Town and other agencies, we would not bei in business." the Town. permanent impact on the Town. The Town stands ready to launch intoi the otcovDA9ypanoemic world with protocols, processes, technology, and communication. systems, to allow for safe and consistent services to our employees, residents, and businesses. 15 North Street L Onancock, Virginia 23417 I 757.787.3363 onancock.com 36 HRSD The transfer of the wastewater treatment plant and collection system to Hampton Roads Sanitation District (HRSD) is strategically critical for Onancock and the entire Shore. It will stabilize the cost of services to Onancock residents and allow for sewer services from Accomac to Nassadadox. This is al huge economic development opportunity in addition to an ecological benefit because oft the proper handling of wastewater and the possible reduction in septic systems that have a negative impact on groundwater and the Bay. The financial impact oft transferring the system to HRSD is more appropriate to think about as rick avoidance down the road. That means that while the debt for the sewer system is being removed from the Town's books, so is the revenue that pays fori it. We are no better off financially in the near- term because the sewer revenue covers all costs. The benefit is clearly risk avoidance for future regulations, capital repairs and replacement, and system failure. To provide economic and ecologic gain to the Shore and limit the financial risk for the future of the Town is a strong decision and one that is imminently close to completion. We created a small group to negotiate thet terms of the transfer between the Town and HRSD and we retained legal counsel that specializes in this type of transaction. After several attempts to reach full system-wide transfer terms, we came to agreement with HRSD that the first and most critical step in the process is to transfer the wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) to HRSD in Phase land then finalize negotiations and property transfers for the collection system in Phase 1I. The public hearings and resolution to proceed with Phase Iwill take place in. June 2021. Phase Il involves many property easements and terms for transfer, which is the reason we: separated the transaction. Phase II begins immediately and, int thei interim, Onancock will continue to do all billing and collecting at the same rates we used for fiscal 2021. This means the debt will be paid and the plant and its capital needs will be transferred to HRSD in the next few months. By continuing to bill at the same rates, we should generate adequate reserves to defend any property The transfer of the WWTP means that the Town reduces its employee count by four personnel and loses the physical space currently used by the DPW (Department of Public Works (Parks, Water, Streets, Buildings, etc..). The staff that remains are allocated to DPW and these three employees now report directly to the Town Manager. Because the wastewater plant and property are used for the entire Public Works department, we needed to create a new (post- HRSD) DPW area. To provide the space and storage needs, we sold an idle piece of property on Justis Street. The cash from the sale purchased 3 storage buildings necessary to house alll DPW tools and supplies in a secured space. Using owned tools and existing employees, we are renovating the space for adequate storage and workspace to serve the disputes that may arise during the transfer of the collection system. DPW for the near and long-term. Wharf & Marina Over the last 10-years, the Town has invested well over $1 million in the Wharf and Marina. These projects include new fuel tanks and systems, Harbormaster building renovations, and floating docks. We received permission to carry over the funds from previous projects to repair and replace the public boat ramp. These funds had been carried over for 2 grant cycles. In August of 2020, the Town Manager retained an engineer to design and oversee the construction of this project. The engineer submitted all appropriate permit applications, yet the process was impacted mightily by the agencies that began work-from-home protocols. We received thet final permit for the project from the Army Corps of Engineers in late March 2021 and issued an order to proceed to the contractor. The contractor completed thej job they were on when they received the order and began work as quickly as possible. Since then, there have been several minor delays due to unforeseeable conditions and weather. The contractor has progressed consistently in good faith and the While the ramp renovation project is underway, the Town Manager independently applied for the VPA (Virginia Port Authority) grant to continue the investment at the Wharf & Marina by repairing the failing bulkhead on the creek side from the fuel dock through the rented slip called M-1. The award was granted for $270,000 (75% of expected costs). Before the boating season opened, the Town Manager developed a newsletter for all previous marina guests to remind them about Onancock and: spark interesti in ar return visit. Additionally, he performed an amenities comparison to other project completion (while much later than we hoped) isi imminent. The Town Manager anticipates applying for grant funds to cover the matching cost requirement. marinas in similar markets. We determined that picnic tables, golf carts, and a courtesy car were the amenities we The Town Manager solicited a private donation for the materials for 10 picnic tables andi then secured volunteers to build them. The tables are nearly complete and will be distributed among all Onancock town parks. The Town contracted to rent golf carts fort the: season to provide to transient boaters as a service. The carts seem to be a viable business for the Marina and the Town Manager may pursue grants to buy carts to offer this amenity permanently. The courtesy cari is actually a police car no longer in service. See the Police Department section of this report for more The Wharf and Marina has a newi ice machine (which eliminates a volunteer transporting and donating), a new courtesy car, golf carts for rent, and a renovated ramp underway. The promise of a new bulkhead ensures sustainable infrastructure. We are also expending existing grant funds for a new security system, walkway boards, and pedestals for power, water, and dock lighting. The financial performance of the Marina during the pandemic was dire, but since the opening this year (with expanded hours to better serve evening gas customers and late arrivals), the performance has lacked in order to remain competitive. details. been stellar. Police Department The police department has had a volatile year, to be sure. There were two officers who voluntarily resigned their positions with the town and ai third who took voluntarily family leave. The hiring of certified officers on the Shore is The hiring process prompted the Town Manager to evaluate compensation for the department compared to other towns on the Shore. Wel learned that our officers and starting wages are woefully underfunded. The Town Manager presented a 3-year plan for the department, its operating costs, its vehicle replacement: strategy, andi its compensation. The presentation to Town Council preempted thet fiscal 2022 budget which includes the first of three market adjustments for our officers. By the end of1 the adjustment period, the Onancock officers willl bei in the top quartile of officers on the Shore. This is justified for quality of life issues, of course, but also criminal activity on Onancock is escalating at an unhealthy rate. While understaffed, our officers have dealt with crimes of every level and maintained the demeanor and professionalism upon which Onancock has come to rely. Our officers have an impossible job by dealing with horrific crimes while still checking doors at night for traveling residents or closed businesses. We are blessed to employ these professionals and should be recognized ate every level for their efforts, dedication, and The three-year plan not only arrived at a solution for compensation, but also a plan for equipment and: supplies unique top police. Our officers were driving on bald tires waiting for a new fiscal year to begin. They were driving cars with more miles than reasonable and equipment that was woefully obsolete. In the most recent year, we developed a police car replacement strategy that actually reduces cash flow requirements from the Town and replaces cars in a standardized time frame. The car most recently taken out of service was stripped of all police equipment and made available to the marina customers as a courtesy car. Equipment (such as body cameras) have been replaced. Each officer now has a uniform allowance to ensure professional and comfortable dress. Training protocols are becoming more demanding and diverse and we have implementedi training schedules to comply withe ever-increasing demands and requirements. As of this writing, all open positions have been filled with non-certified officers. This means that they can only work under the direct supervision of supervised officers until they work 240 hours after they attend the Academy, which will competitive to say the least. professionalism during the pandemic. they complete in. January of 2022. Town Financial Operations Town is very strong. Fiscal 2021 was a volatile year financially as well as operationally, but at the end of the year, the financial state of the Fiscal 2021 began by ensuring thei internal financial systems agreed to and supported the externally reported and audited financial statement. The monthly financial results are presented to Town Council in an understandable and After the systems agreed, we began to make concerted efforts to collect unpaid taxes and utilities. We were able to help many people with the use of utility grants, but there are still a significant old taxes that remain unpaid. We have As we developed collection policies, it became apparent that there were no financial policies governing revenue, budgeting, or cash reserve. The Town Manager has since developed and had Town Council approve comprehensive The budget process for fiscal 2022 was thoughtful, well presented, transparent, and all-inclusive in its nature.

Code of Ordinances Two years ago, the Town had contracted with Municode to compile our approved ordnances and present them online for public use. This project remained incomplete until 2021 during which time the Town Manager reviewed, adjusted, and presented Municode with all ordinances. Once completed and updated for new state law references, the Code was presented to Town Council and codified. The current Town Code is now available online for all to access and review. Modifications to code are updated online quarterly to ensure the most recent code is available to all readers. Ina addition to the major initiatives undertaken and competed in fiscal 2021, the Town Manager took on small community projects to improve the quality of lifei in Onancock.
