She shared that, through recommendations made by the RAC, Planning and Zoning staff have begun a zoning ordinance amendment to improve the regulations and enforcement of sign removal in the VDOT right of way. Ms. Baker spoke about a Tourist Center Pocket Park, located at the intersection of Stoneridge and Enterprise Drives, and said that the RAC has worked with the Greene County Tourism Development Council to formulate a standard recommendation for the use of the lot due west oft the' Tourism Center. The development ofthis green space could make use of funds allocated to tourism development due to its immediate proximity to the Tourism Center, and therefore represents a fast and affordable option for increasing green space in the center of Ruckersville. Development options favored by both the committee and the council include a walking path, scattered picnic tables, exercise stations, outdoor art pieces and an outdoor performance venue. Ms. Baker said that the RAC would like to recommend the use of the lot directly behind Food Lion and soon to be accessible from Cedar Grove Road as a pocket park. In keeping with the Ruckersville Area Plan goals, the committee recommends that this small parcel be developed as green space. This could be realized in several ways, with various specific uses, but with a general goal of an appealing outdoor space forresidents and shoppers to visit and utilize. Recreation, relaxation, exercise, outdoor dining, etc., are all potential uses in keeping with this recommendation. Two of the most discussed options for the    Board of Supervisors March 14, 2023 Sheet 5  space were building at tot lot or a pocket park. Ms. Baker said that the RAC encourages the county tocontinue working through development planning that results in green space adjacent and Greene County access to the Preddy Creek Regional Park. This will increase property values and desirability of residences ini the southern end of Ruckersville and benefit all County residents.

RE: SET BOARD OF SUPERVISORS MEETING FOR MARCH 23, 2023 FOR THE PURPOSE OF INTERVIEWING CANDIDATES FOR THE COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR Ms. Garton asked the Board to set a date fora a Board of Supervisors meeting for the purpose ofinterviewing candidates for the County Administrator position. Virginia Code section 2.2-3712 outlines the procedures for a Board of Supervisors to go into a closed meeting. There is an exception that allows the governing body to do a closed meeting in a different manneri if they are interviewing candidates for their CAO position. It says specifically, the provisions of the chapter don't apply for a closed meeting of any public body held solely for the purpose of interviewing candidates for the position of their chief administrative officer. Prior to any such closed meeting for the purpose of interviewing candidates, the public body shall announce, in an open meeting, that such closed meeting shall be held at a disclosed or undisclosed location within 15 days thereafter. The action the Board needs to take is to move to set this meeting on March 23, 2023, beginning at 8:00 a.m. at an undisclosed location for the purpose of interviewing candidates for the County Administrator position, as allowed by Virginia code section 2.2-3712. B. which allows you to set the meeting, but not announce the place, where you will be allowed to go into closed meeting for that purpose and discuss the candidates and everything associated with the interview  POSITION  process.  Upon motion by Steve Bowman, second by Davis Lamb and unanimous roll call vote, the Board set a meeting date of March 23, 2023, for the purpose of interviewing candidates for the  County Administrator position.

RE: APPROVAL OF RESOLUTION IN SUPPORT OF COMMUNITY-PROJECT FUNDING APPLICATIONS TOCONGRESSWOMAN ABIGAIL: SPANBERGERS OFFICE Ms. Beigie presented two projects that could qualify under Community-Project Funding through Congressional Appropriations through 7th District Congresswoman Abigail Spanberger's office. These appropriations are like Federal grants int that each project must align with thel Federal funding nexus, and going through the Representative's office helps push the application to the front of the line for funding. Members of Congress are permitted to submit up to 15 requests per year and there is no guarantee how many will be funded. Ms. Beigie outlined the steps, first    Board of Supervisors March 14, 2023 Sheet 7  submittal to the Congresswoman's office and if chosen she submits to Congress for House Committee discussion. Once the U.S. House passes its appropriation bill later this summer or fall, the county would know whether the project passed its first hurdle ifit remained in the bill. Once both the House and Senate pass appropriation bills this winter, is when the county would learn if the projects were chosen for funding. Funding must be spent by September 2024, SO shorter-term projects were chosen this round. The first proposed project is for a $70,000.00 virtual reality interactive crisis intervention, de-escalation, and use-of-force training system. There is no local funding match requirement. The second project is $750,000.00 in safety improvements at the Greene County Community Park through HUD's Economic Development Initiative. Improvements include bringing public water linei into the park; adding an electronic programmable gate at the entrance; insulating the bathrooms; adding lighting to the parking lot; paving and) lining the parking lot; and the creation of an overflow parking lot. There is nol local match fort this funding  either.

RE: BUDGET WORKSESSION  Ms. Garton reminded everyone that the Board passed a resolution authorizing the advertisement of the proposed tax rates. The Board agreed to advertise a real estate tax rate of $0.76. Ms. Garton explained the tax rate equalization process. She explained the changes that were made to the proposed budget coming from the last budget work session. She said that the Board suggested changes that would eliminate $.02 worth of expenditures. At this point, the budget is balanced at a tax rate of $0.74 which represents an increase of $.08 on the tax levy. The contingency fund was increased to $329,096 and the total capital transfer is $323,029, which is made up from the money that got returned to us from Jaunt that we were not expecting and half a penny on the real estate tax rate. Ms. Garton recommended that the Board hold off on adopting the resolution authorizing the advertisement of the budget until the meeting on the 28th to make sure that everything is as the Board wants it to be. Ms. Garton said that she has also prepared a    Board of Supervisors March 14, 2023 Sheet 8  scenario which would balance the budget on a tax rate of $0.73. She said this could be accomplished by reducing the Contingency fund back down to $250,000 and by reducing the transfer to the schools by $211,953. The Board discussed the options. Ms. Heflin said that she is in favor of the second scenario which would decrease the tax rate by an additional penny. Mr. Lamb agreed, and Ms. Durrer agreed. Mr. Bowman said that he is not in favor of cutting the tax ratel by an additional penny because he feels that the cost ofeverything has gone up: for the county, too, and we are trying to continue to deliver the services we provide. He does not agree with  cutting the school transfer. Mr. Herring agreed with Mr. Bowman.  It was the consensus of the Board tol have staff balance the budget at $0.73.
