DISTRICT - APPROVED

appropriation relative to this project. He advised this second request was for $250,000 from the
Sanitary District reserve fund. He went on say the committee was advised that staff had met
with Virginia State Dam Inspector, Mr. Robert Van Lier, Y.E., earlier in the afternoon discuss the
options available to retain the dam's certification. The option presented to and agreed upon by
the SSDAC was that a certain portion of the grouting project be completed in accordance with
the approved alteration permit for Cherokee Dam. In addition, the State would require a letter
from our engineer of record, Mr. Daniel Hamric, P.E. of Triad Engineering, Inc., certifying that

the dam's foundation will be safe after completion of the grouting program. if the grouting
program is completed as designed, a pipe would no longer be required to be installed through the
dam to convert the lake into a detention pond; however, we will be required to perform
additional monitoring of the dam and submit annual reports to the State.

SERVICES
Chairman Shickle referred the Board to the correspondence in their agenda notebook. He
stated there appeared to be three areas for the Board to consider:
1. Continue talks and exploration of total consolidation.
2. Continue talks and exploration of consolidation of selected services.
3. Meet with City Council.
He then asked the board members for their thoughts.
Vice - Chairman Ewing stated the Steering Committee spent a lot of time working on this
issue, but he is not sure where he stands; however, he did not think the subject should be
dropped.
Supervisor Fisher stated the Board had an obligation to get to know the new city council
members, but felt exploration of unification should move forward at a later time.
Supervisor DeHaven agreed with Supervisor Fisher. He went on to say that he would
like staff to identify potential opportunities for partial consolidation and he would like to
continue the discussions in the future.
Supervisor Lofton stated he had not found any support in the county for unification and
he was not willing to spend a lot of time on this issue. He went on to say he did not have a
Minute Book Number 34

problem meeting with City Council.
Supervisor Dove agreed with Supervisor DeHaven. He went on to say the citizens did
not favor total consolidation, but there were some services that should be consolidated.
Supervisor Lemieux stated it would be tough to begin the consolidation process now,
given the tough economic times; therefore, he could not support it at this time.
i Chairman Shickle polled the Board regarding the three areas addressed in Michael
Foreman's letter:
1. Moving forward with some form of consolidation of selected services.
Aye — Shickle, Ewing, DeHaven, Dove, and Fisher
Nay — Lemieux and Lofton
2. Moving forward with total consolidation.
Aye — None
Nay — Shickle, Ewing, DeHaven, Dove, Fisher, Lemieux, and Lofton
Chairman Shickle advised that he and Administrator Riley would investigate a joint
meeting between the Board and City Council and they would get back to the Board regarding the
details. This meeting will probably take place after the budget process.

The elimination of county decals could have a negative impact on our operations at the
Minute Book Number 34
Board of Supervisors Regular Meeting of 02/11/09
239
citizens' convenience sites. Our current operations rely on the decals to identify county residents
who are permitted to utilize these sites for refuse disposal. Staff indicated that these sites would
be subject to illegal dumping from citizens outside Frederick County if an alternative procedure
is not established to identify local residents. Several alternatives were suggested by committee
members including using decals at the sites, using drivers' licenses as identification and /or
requesting that citizens provide vehicle registrations. Staff will evaluate these suggestions to
determine the impact on the operations at the various sites and contact other counties which have
experienced similar situations. We will report our findings at the next public works committee
meeting.
2. Update on Grouting of Lake Cherokee Dam — Shawneeland
To date, the contractor hired to grout the foundation under the Lake Cherokee Dam has
pumped approximately 1,000 cubic yards of cement grout in voids under the dam in an effort to
stop the leaks. In several instances, they have been successful in temporarily stopping the leak.
However, with time, the leakage has managed to create new pathways around the grout. Staff
has met on a regular basis with the Shawneeland advisory committee to keep them informed of
the progress. On each occasion they have unanimously voted to continue the grouting program
in an attempt to stop the leakage. To that end, staff requested a fund transfer and permission to
exceed the maximum change order amount of ten (10) percent. These efforts will increase the
grouting contract amount from $420,444 to $650,000.
