RE: PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER ABANDONING A PORTION OF JENNINGS Mr. Frydl presented information regarding the abandonment of aj portion of Jennings Loop inl Ruckersville, which enters the intersection of U.S. Routes 29 and 33, practically in the middle of the intersection. Mr. Frydl said because of this the road does meet standards and is not a safe road. He noted the 29/33 intersection project calls for the closing of that entrance because it's unsafe. The county advertised the intention for 30 days and had signs along the road and heard no comments. He said the public hearing is not required, but the staffs said they would go forward with it. He said it's only required ift they had heard comments. Mr. Frydl said after the board approves the resolution, it goes to the Commonwealth Transportation Board they enact their side ofit.

RE: PUBLIC HEARING TO AMEND THE BUDGET TO ADJUST TO AGGREGATE AMOUNT TO BE APPROPRIATBD DURING THE CURRENT FISCAL YEAR BYAN AMOUNT IN EXCESS OF ONE PERCENT OF THE TOTAL EXPENDITURES IN THE CURRENTLY ADOPTED BUDGET TO PROVIDE FOR THE ADDITIONAL OF THE  GREENE COUNTY WATER AND SEWER OPERATIONS  Mr. Lunsford discussed revenue projections for the budget that was presented at the September 13, 2022, meeting. Mr. Lunsford noted that the county has worked with Stantec and Davenport Financial for several years. In the 2021 feasibility study, Stantec included a five-year projection from 2022-2026 for water and sewer: rates and what the expected revenue would be. Mr. Lunsford said the department used the 2023 rates from the study as a baseline, which was $19.71 for water and $36 for sewer, which matches up with the recently adopted Water and Sewer Ordinance. The Board adopted al higher rate for the cost of water over 2,000 gallons than what was in the Stantec study. Using RSA'sown budget numbers, he predicts the sale of roughly  240 gallons of water for 2022-23 fiscal year.    Board of Supervisors September 27,2022 Sheet7  Mr. Courtney Rogers with Davenport attended the meeting via Zoom. He said he and Mr. Lunsford sat down a couple of weeks ago and looked at the data again, noting the department is beginning to get customer usage data, which is the next step. Mr. Rogers told the board that the hiring of additional staff within the department to operate the plants is needed concurrently and  the approval of al budget would allow that going forward.  Mr. Lunsford told the Board that in 2022, RSA sold more than $1.7 million in water sales for Greene County. RSA sold a little over $1.1 million in sewer sales for a total of $2.8 million. He said that amount covers the operational expenses for the department for 12 months and that  was at al lower rate.  Mr. Lamb read the following statement: "Most of our County taxpayers have been struggling toj pay their car taxes, but we have yet to amend the budget to help them with any relief, even though we should. Since we are being asked to amend the budget to fund the water department, your numbers need to be accurate, which they probably are, and the new water has  tos succeed." RSA.  Mr. Herring asked how many vehicles are being transferred over to Greene County from Mr. Lunsford said he knows for sure they're getting one pickup truck and some small hand tools, but no large equipment. He said the department will need to purchase a mini-  excavator, a dump truck, other pickup trucks, and other needed tools. the handling of a major leak ifit could not be repaired by the County.  Mr. Lamb asked if anyone from outside of Greene County had been contacted regarding  Mr. Lunsford said the head of maintenance has contacted a few people.  The public hearing was opened.  No one was signed up to speak and the public hearing was closed.  Mr. Bowman said he was hoping there would be a resolution on the agenda to deal with personal property taxes and hopes there will be one in the coming weeks. He said the approval of the budget is an essential step in the transition process from RSA to Greene County.  Upon motion by Steve Bowman and second by Dale Herring, and a unanimous roll call  vote, the Budget allocation was approved (See Attachment "E").  Recorded vote:  Marie Durrer Dale Herring Steve Bowman Abbey Heflin Davis Lamb  Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes    Board of Supervisors September 27,2022 Sheet 8  Motion carried.  RE: TJPDC DRAFT 2023 LEGISLATIVE AGENDA  Mr. David Blount, Thomas Jefferson Planning District Commission Deputy Director/Director of Legislative Service, spoke about likely upcoming state legislative budget priorities for the 2023 General Assembly session. Mr. Blount discussed the $2 billion revenue surplus for the state, but noted much is already spoken for. In the budget approved in. June, there were contingency items that were put into the budget that relied on revenues exceeding expectations, which they did. He said the most significant one for local governments is roughly $250 million that will go to the Virginia Retirement System tol help offset some of the unfunded pension liabilities, state employees, but most importantly for the region is the teacher pension fund. Mr. Blount told the Board that Governor Glenn Younkin has announced he would like to address issues with public safety and mental health and will propose possible budget amendments by mid-December. The Governor has also indicated he would like to try to build on  some of the tax relief proposals approved this past year.  Mr. Blount said all 100 House of Delegates seats and 40 Senate seats will be up for election in fall of 2023. Greene County has been redistricted and will have new General Assembly representatives for both seats. Mr. Blount said he expects some legislation toj possibly restrict or seek to: restrict local government authority on short-term rentals. He asked that Board members contact him for items they' d like to have address in the legislative program. Mr. Bowman asked ifJLARC would be willing to do a study that looks at how state and local revenues are raised and allocated in Virginia as it compares to other states. He said he believes that Virginia is not as competitive as it should be in the ability to attract major business and investments. Mr. Bowman said he believes other states have done it differently and perhaps share more revenue with the local government. He said Greene County has public safety needs and other infrastructure needs that will require al lot of resources. He said he doesn'ts see those  coming in quantities from the state that are significant.  Mr. Blount said it's been a while since there's been a good look at the state and local Mr. Bowman said he' d like to see best practices from other states for sharing revenue. Mr. Lamb asked whether there had been any lessening of unfunded mandates for the Mr. Blount said the administrative workload of testing and other requirements takes someone's time and resources away from other work. He said he will keep that in mind as he  revenues.  schools.  looks at the legislation. He said he expects to present again in November.  RE: SHERIFF STAFF STUDY    Board of Supervisors September 27,2022 Sheet 9  Major David Roach oft the Sheriff's Office told the Board that the retention rate is the worst it has ever been. He said in the past two years, about 29 have left. He said low salaries are the biggest problem they face. He said they looked at midpoint and gross salary and the Greene Sheriff's Office is operating at a level considerably lower than nearby agencies. There are 48 positions within the department and he said 47 of them are behind the midpoint including: 16 shift deputies are 17% below the midpoint; investigators are 23% below the midpoint; 12 Emergency Communications Officers are 23% below the midpoint; and command and administrative staff all fall below the midpoints. He made an appeal to the Board fora 25% pay  increase across all 48 positions.  Mike Jones, Major Security Consulting, performed the study and was present to discuss the study, which is protected under the Freedom of Information Act from release. He said the job description is really 24/7 toj protect people, property and peace-offer a safe way of life. He said those working within the department are problem solvers and when someone calls, they answer that call, which could be anything from a murder to an octopus in an aquarium tank. Mr. Jones said the biggest investment for the County is with its people. He said he's seen a bidding war to hire qualified officers throughout the state. He said people start at the smaller officers, get trained and then leave. Mr. Jones said training is quite expensive. He said the County needs a new facility, and new equipment. He said police department offices are now targets and that the current office is wide open for aj possible drive-by shooting. He said body cameras are vital and  technology is always evolving.  Mr. Jones said deputies are willing to give their lives up for citizens and make a better life for Greene citizens they need to be well-funded, well-supported, and well-led. He said not  everything has to happen at once, but iti is a roadmap.  Mr. Bowman congratulated the Sheriff and the whole department for commissioning the study. He said he met with the Emergency Communications Center Supervisor Mr. Gary Carpenter, noting there is a national effort to redefine the job description of emergency communications personnel to get them out of the secretarial listing and into a first-responder listing. He said he was shocked that Greene starts deputies at $37,000.00, and from his perspective the County needs to do more to support the policing people in the County. He said that needs to happen as the Board begins the process for the next budget.  Mr. Lamb noted that the Sheriff's Office is an accredited agency, which is no small task. He said he didn'trealize dispatchers are in there for 121 hours at a time and never leave the building during that time or that officers work a 12-hour shift. He said the employees put their lives on the line every day and said there are not many who would do it for $50,000 or $60,000. Mr. Herring said Mr. Jones mentioned the Emergency Services Advisory Board meetings as part of his report on the fire and rescue departments. He said ifMr. Jones watched them today, they're entirely different in aj positive way. Mr. Herring said the group is really coming together to discuss their needs and one oft the concerning issues is when they identify the number of open positions they have. He said one thing he's spoke with Major Roach about is the department    Board of Supervisors September 27,2022 Sheet 10  needs to have the ability to when they hire a veteran officer, they do not have to start at the base  salary. He said that would attract officers with a higher degree of proficiency.  Mr. Jones said the County should consider looking at compression, which is when a rookie comes into the department and veteran officers of that department are making less. He said it's about policy change. As the department adjusts the starting pay, there should be an  increase in the others' pay.  Mr. Jones discussed training, noting the County needs a place for deputies to train with their weapons. He said that as the profession changes, there is al burden placed on localities to fund it. He said the Compensation Board funding for deputies is archaic as it only uses the residential population. Mr. Jones said deputies do not only police residents, especially along U.S.  Route 29.  Ms. Durrer said the report was a real eye-opener and appreciates it.  RE: DRAFTTOT REGISTRY  Mr. Frydl presented information about the possibility of developing a short-term lodging registry in the County. He asked the Board if the draft ordinance reflects their desires. He said the Board would need to pass a resolution that directs the Planning Commission to hold public hearings on the issue. Once the Planning Commission has vetted the ordinance, it would come back to the Board for a public hearing and decision. He said if any County code were to change, there would be a third public hearing oni it due to advertising requirements. He said Ms. Kemp and  Kim Tate, the Commissioner of Revenue, have assisted with the information.  Mr. Frydl said the registry allows the County to track information regarding short-term rentals in the County. During a recent planning and zoning state conference, Mr. Frydl heard from other localities that they hire a third-party service to find the addresses and submit to the zoning department, the commissioner of revenue and finance department to make sure everyone remains  up-to-date on the registry.  Mr. Bowman said he brought the issue up a while ago with Orange Couny'smodel.Ithink we ought to send this to the Planning Commission and allow them to hold a public hearing. He said he has no issue with a third party identifying just how many operate in Greene County. Mr. Lamb asked how people who have operated for 10 years without a registry know that they must register and what kind of penalty can be puti in place for those who violate the ordinance. Ms. Kemp said there is a $500 penalty in the draft ordinance, but has no idea what a third- Mr. Frydl said it depends on the vendor and it's an annual fee and anywhere from $3,000-  party vendor would cost.  $5,000 depending on the amount of work.    Board of Supervisors September 27,2022 Sheet 11  Mr. Herring said he has no issue with it going forward. He wondered what recourse the County would have ifs someone operated one illegally. He said he didn'tknow whether the registry  addresses the problem ofi illegal operations. violate people operating an illegal operation.  Ms. Kemp said some could be grandfathered in. Additionally, zoning would be able to Mr. Frydl said thel Board has the final opportunity to decideifit'saz zoning penalty,ashort- Mr. Herring said he would be fine with a one-time fee with the first registration and then Mr. Bowman said he thinks it could be a one-time fee of $35 or $30 first year and $5 thereafter. He said he thinks a one-time fee and just re-register yearly could be good ifit covers the processing fee. He said he doesn't know what it takes to process aj payment like that.  term registry penalty, or both. come yearly to update the forms.  Mr. Frydl said he can't imagine what the cost would be if every person who touched the Mr. Bowman said he agrees, but in other places he's worked they had that number. He said Ms. Heflin said initially she was ini favor oft the one-time fee, but compared it to registering a vehicle, knowing it'll be about $60, but that's cheaper than a large penalty. Perhaps knowing they need to re-register SO they can keep operating they would come in to pay the fee and re- register. She suggested some certificate that the owners of the property can display that shows they  file were accounted for.  the Board should know what the cost is to the County to process a check.  are registered in the County and Mr. Bowman agreed.  Ms. Tate said once they' re on the books for a business license, they get a renewal business Ms. Heflin asked whether thel Planning and! Zoning Department could share copies ofinitial applications to the Commissioner of Revenue's Office. Mr. Frydl said they already do. Ms. Heflin asked if the Planning Commission could review other counties who have a registry. Mr. Frydl said they do that with all oft the applications and that Ms. Kemp helped research  license application automatically and something similarly could be done.  that. He said the state code is pretty clear about it.  Ms. Heflin wondered if the registry could be public. Mr. Frydl said the County has requirements under FOIA to share information while the Commissioner of Revenue has restrictions on what can be shared because it's revenue related. He said when it comes to zoning  documents and applications if someone requests it, it's a public document.  Ms. Durrer asked whether there would be a mechanism, a penalty, if someone did not re- register. Mr. Frydl said the County would know whether they were still active through al business    Board of Supervisors September 27,2022 Sheet 12  license check. The code gives the County the opportunity to enforce under the zoning ordinance and also enforce under the state code allowed fine also. The state code also allows the County to  revoke someone's ability to operate if not registered.  Upon motion by Steve Bowman and second by Dale Herring, and a unanimous roll call vote, the Resolution was approved to request the Planning Commission to hold a public hearing  on the draft ordinance (See Attachment "F").  Recorded vote:  Marie Durrer Dale Herring Steve Bowman Abbey Heflin Davis Lamb  Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes  Motion carried.  RE: SIGN ORDINANCE REVISION tol be sure that the County is in compliance.  Mr. Frydl requested the Board authorize the Planning Commission to update the sign ordinance. He said there have been First Amendment cases regarding signs recently and they want  Mr. Bowman said at the Town Hall held last month in Dyke that the fact that the County does not permit LED signs even at the fire departments. He said the sign at Barboursville is not very bright and is attractive and allows the department to communicate information to the public. He said he'd like for the Planning Commission to look at standards for such a sign.  Mr. Lamb said he's heard the same thing, specifically about upcoming classes and Mr. Frydl said that is one of the things they'd like to review. However, the code doesn't distinguish between a fire department and al business and aj political message. He said that we can't read a message to decide if the sign is allowed or not, SO it makes it challenging to permit those signs. He said he intends to seei ifthere are exceptions that can be made for public safety buildings. Mr. Frydl said if not, and the Board feels there's value in having those signs, they would be  volunteers needed.  permitted for everyone.  Upon motion by Dale Herring and second by Steve Bowman, and a unanimous roll call vote, the Resolution was approved to request the Planning Commission to review the sign  ordinance (See Attachment "G").

RE: TOURISM COUNCIL BYLAWS  Mr. Taylor presented the draft Tourism Council Bylaws, which were given to the Board prior to the meeting. He said he apologized for the lateness of the delivery. He said that the item required more review and would come back on a future agenda, but wanted to get the draft to the  Board as soon as possible.  Mr. Bowman said he' d like to take time to read through the new modified document. Mr. Herring said within the bylaws a member may miss three meetings, which is six months, before removal. The Council only meets once every other month. The agenda is posted three days prior to the meeting and Mr. Herring asked ift that couldn't be out earlier than that. Mr.  Bowman agreed.  Ms. Durrer said she thought waiting before a vote would be a good idea and Ms. Heflin Mr. Bowman asked whether the Tourism Council could review the bylaws again before  agreed she' 'd like more time for review. the Board goes back over it.  RE: BOARD LIAISON REPORTS  Mr. Herring said the ESAB met the previous week for a very productive meeting. The October meeting willl be a workshop instead of the usual meeting and Ms. Meadora and Mr. Herring will meet with each groupi individually for an hours sO they can tell them what the needs are: sO that they could develop a comprehensive plan that can be brought to the Board of Supervisors. The  Rivanna River Basin Commission held a conference on' 9/29.  Mr. Lamb asked whether Phase One of the Creekside development had begun. Mr. Frydl said Phase One and Phase Two are in site plan review but there a few outstanding comments. He said he expects it will get approved quickly because what's left are very minor comments. He said Phase Two is dependent on aj pump station design and water line design that he expects it will take  longer.  Ms. Heflin said thel EDA met the week prior and they plan tol have an open forum forj people  to come and have discussions about economic development in Greene County.    Board of Supervisors September27,2022 Sheet 14  Mr. Bowman said he attended the. Jaunt meeting that month in Charlottesville where there was discussion that services to rural counties were being supplemented by urban counties. He said there will probably be discussions with the Board about how to: fund the service long-term. He also attended the School Board meeting where they discussed their Impact2027 strategic plan. Mr. Bowman said he attended the Rapidan Service Authority Board of Members meeting where they discussed supply chain issues. He said a big step toward the transition was taken earlier in the evening and he believes they are getting more cooperation from RSA. Mr. Bowman held a Town Hall in Dyke with several staff members for the Monroe District community to come have a dialogue with the County. He said he thought it went very well and thanked Ms. Meador and Mr.  Frydl and Mr. Herring for being there.  Mr. Herring thanked Mr. Bowman for having him at the Town Hall. He said he would Mr. Bowman said he attended the Planning Commission meeting where they looked at two Ms. Durrer said she also attended the RSA meeting in place of Mr. Martin who could not be there. She said she was very pleased and believes they have realized that we are going tol be our own system and they want to cooperate. Central Virginia Regional Jail has called a meeting for October about the possibility ofincluding another county into the system. She said that might help  encourage other Board members to do the same and be prepared for tough questions.  chapters of the Comprehensive Plan.  offset the costs Greene has to pay annually. RE: COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR REPORT  Mr. Taylor said it has been a joy serving Greene County as County Administrator since April 2019. He said we got through COVID, worked together to establish the EMS Department after UVA canceled the contract to provide services and got the new EMS station built. Additionally, the County has gotten the withdrawal and transition agreement hammered out with RSA sO the County can establish its own water and sewer: service. He said he wanted to say a word ofappreciation for the Board's support throughout the years. He said he has had a remarkable work family in Greene, saying it's been a real privilege to work with the people who serve our community. He said he' 'd like to suggest that thei issues presented earlier about staffing and salaries at the Sheriff's Office are issues that permeate the whole society. He said the root issues is that the cost of labor has been rising and in recent years its risen dramatically. He said the turnover rate must be looked at, but he asked the Board to remember the employees who are. here and are staying here. He said the Board is blessed to have phenomenal people working for Greene County who pitch in together. Mr. Taylor said Mr. Frydl defines the Greene County employee as the planning director and zoning administrator and the producer oft the virtual meetings, the sound and tech guy to make the room run, which is how Greene County employees work together, pitch in together,  and get it done.
