RE: RSA WATER MPOUNDMENTPLANS FOR GREENE COUNTY  Mr. Martin said he and Mr. Ron Williams, Greene County representatives, attended the meeting of the Rapidan Service Authority (RSA) Board last Thursday. The General Manager of RSA was invited to attend this meeting to update citizens and Board members on RSA plans for the delivery oftreated water in Greene County but Mr. Clemons had a conflict and could not be present. Mr. Martin noted he received a presentation late in the day, did not have an opportunity RSA has developed a capital improvement plan (CIP) list for the Town of Stanardsville that consists of 6 projects totaling an estimated $12 million. They are looking at long term financing. Also, there was discussion about the possible purchase ofa$101 million water treatment plant at the current location that could draw and treat up to 5 million gallons per day. Mr. Martin questioned that figure as the current safe withdraw limit is 1.15 million gallons per day. He requested this bel looked at again. The RSA Board approved the purchase ofa $1.2 million mobile water treatment plant that could be moved from county to county as needed. Mr. Martin said he did not support that purchase as we need tol have al better picture ofwhat RSA is doing Annualized data on the levels of water withdrawn from the river was provided and a proposal for water usage rate increases by RSA over the next few years was discussed. Mr.  to look at, and will share with Board members.    Board of Supervisors August 25, 2020 Sheet 4  Williams stated it looked like the facility fee was being replaced by water usage rates. Both Mr. Martin and Mr. Williams made it clear that they could not support RSA raising water usage rates until a comprehensive plan for delivery ofwater in Greene County was understood. Mr. Williams said wel have aj plan here in Greene that has been worked on for years, have approved engineering plans, land that has been purchased, stream mitigation credits purchased, have obtained permits from Corp of Engineers and DEQ. The White Run Reservoir project considered the Greene County Comprehensive Plan and the Fifty-Year Water Supply Plan. The County has a plan and until RSA can show that they have thought through their plan, we could not support an increasei in Mr. Bowman asked ifMr. Martin orl Mr. Williams were made aware oft the document prior to going into the meeting. Mr. Martin said he was aware ofai few oft the rough details but that was the first time they saw the information. He said he would not call it aj plan. Mr. Bowman said we have aj plan that we've spent almost $11 million on, and, in his opinion, iti is not up to them to tell Mr. Taylor said the limiting realty appears to be the maximum safe withdrawal capacity of 1.15 million gallons per day at our withdrawal point. Logic problem with what RSA appears to Mr. Lamb said the facility fees are also used for payment on the debt assumed from RSA and for thes sewage treatment plant. Mr. Martin agreed and said, with thet termination ofthei facility fee, the County does not have a way to meet our agreement to pay assumed debt. Mr. Lamb said citizens already pay $.075 towards water facilities. Mr. Martin said this is an ongoing situation  rates  us what we: need. bej proposing.  and the Board will continue to deal with it.

RE: FIRE STUDY REPORT - NEXT STEPS  Mr. Taylor said the study included more than 301 recommendations. Among those were the appointment of a fire chief; call for greater structure and clarification ofroles; and establishment Ms. Meador felti it is important for the Board to identify priorities from the report and then host a work session with the public safety community. The report was discussed at the EMS meeting last week and will be discussed in greater detail at a future meeting. Ms. Meador said she has given thought to the implementation of some recommendations that could be done fairly quickly and without financial burden. Structure is needed across the board with county-wide policies and procedures for all to follow. She agreed with the formal establishment of the EMS committee/board. Detailed and timely data is needed every month to justify personnel, staff  of framework for an orderly environment for emergency services.

Coordination and cooperation will be the key to planning strategy and Mr. Bowman agreed with comments by Mr. Taylor and Ms. Meador. Number one priority isan ordinance to establish an Emergency Services Council with bylaws, guidelines, and structure that documents decision making. Secondly, communication is key and Mr. Bowman thinks a facilitator would be a good idea for a Saturday morning discussion withl key individuals on how to become a greater and better team going forward. His third priority would be a strategic plan with Mrs. Durrer asked how this was received by thel Fire Departments and Rescue Squad. Ms. Meador said all agreed to the study in the first place. There was talk about the good, the bad, and the ugly. Questions were asked, input provided, and attendees were engaged in the discussion. Mr. Lamb felt communication is a big issue and everyone needs to sit down to discuss problems. He particularly liked recommendations on accountability, audits, and procurement of Mr. Martin agreed with comments saying we' re at an inflection point regarding emergency services and receipt ofinformation and recommendations in this study puts us at a fork in thei road. Shelving the study is unacceptable. Mr. Martin felt the County should pursue recommendations with due diligence with goals ofimproving quality of fire and emergency services as much as we can within our budget. Having a more formalized Emergency Services Board or Council is an excellent idea. Likes idea of centralized authority but not sure we' re quite there yet. The Board will now count on stafft to do this as efficiently as possible. Agreed with pursuing an ordinance. Ms. Meador will prepare an ordinance to present at either the second meeting in September Mr. Taylor said a facilitated discussion or work session with all stakeholders included will set the tone and develop consensus ofa common, shared, partnered enterprise.

The County has been given two tranches of$1.7 million each which expire at the end oft the calendar year. The School has already identified and expended funds to address needs. Foreseeable needs include technology related to COVID and other qualifying items at an estimated cost of around $200,000. There is profound uncertainty associated with the pandemic. The School is projecting a $1.7 million FY 20 year-end fund balance and some portion of that balance may be useable by the school division to meet COVID related needs in the future. The year end fund balance for the schools, by policy  season comes.

Mr. Taylor reviewed other space constraint mitigation plans that included:  Modular EMS station Building safety modifications Circuit Court modifications Drop boxes  Commonwealth Attorney modifications  Mr. Taylor said it has been determined that CARES Act Funds can be expended for these items. The cost of emergency response operations that are substantially different than expected due to the imposition ofCOVID parameters and are: fundable with CARES Act money despite the fact that staffing costs werel budgeted for the fiscal year by thel local government. Theseares staffing Ms. Morris researched additional information regarding public safety salaries covered under the CARES Act fund. She reviewed frequently asked questions (FAQs), discussed with surrounding localities and auditors, submitted question to VGFOA and Office of Inspector General. CARES Act funds may bei used toi meet payroll expenses for public safety whose services are substantially dedicated to mitigating or responding to the COVID 19 public health emergency. As a matter of administrative convenience, the entire payroll cost of an employee is eligible provided that the cost is incurred by December 30, 2020. Our public safety personnel have amended response policies and protocols to treat every person they encounter as if they have or havel been exposed to COVID 19. Further guidancei is forthcoming from the Officeofthe! Inspector General and Department of Treasury. Basic payroll records are all that is required. Ms. Morris agreed that public safety personnel payroll expenses are an allowed expense for use of CARES Mr. Bowman referred to the request by Sheriff Smith for provision ofhazardous duty pay. Ms. Morris said a provision is allowed forl hazardous duty pay but localities tend tol be using funds for larger payroll expenditures. Mr. Bowman suggested she contact the Sheriff to discuss. Mr. Martin questioned the justification of a modular EMS station. Mr. Taylor said guidelines prohibit the use off funds for thej purchase of property. The volunteer squad has property that is expected tot transfert tot the County. The existing stationi isi inadequate to allows staffnecessary for the Squad to function together safely in a work environment in accordance with COVID guidelines.

Mr. Taylor said information on the Mr. Taylor next discussed displaced funds which would be one-time savings that could be saved to reserve or used to meet one-time capital needs such as an EMS substation at Ruckersville, Ini reference to the Sheriff's comment about hazardous duty pay, Mr. Taylor said one-time savings could be used to fund bonuses for staffincluding Sheriff Office staff. He would want to include all our personnel that have braved the circumstances and done their duty daily such as employees at the Solid Waste Transfer Station that have no choice about interaction with citizens. If the Board is inclined to entertain a supplement to staff in consideration of the strain of these days, dealing with the pandemicl has shot through our entire organization and he would: respectfully ask and recommend that all be considered equally. There are other one-time needs in our organization and he would welcome ideas from Board members. There: is no rush to make decision Mr. Martin felt the Board should bej patient on the use of displaced funds. Thei need tol build the reserve has been discussed previously. Expenditures of CARES Act Funds sound very reasonable and he would support the modular EMS building. Mr. Lamb agreed with being patient. Mr. Bowman agreed with moving slowly with patience in regards to displaced funds and helping schools should be a priority. Mrs. Durrer also agreed and especially would like to do Mr. Taylor said he comprehends the wisdom of patience.
