Zoning Administrator Mark Cheran appeared before the Board and presented this
conditional use permit request. He stated this request was for a conditional use permit to enable
the construction of a 165-foot monopole -type commercial telecommunications facility. He
stated that in addition the applicant requested a setback waiver. Should the Board of
Supervisors find the waiver to the required setback acceptable; a motion to recommend
approval of setback reduction of 43' to allow the tower to be 127' from the identified property
line would be appropriate. He further stated this request was presented at a public hearing of the
Board of Supervisors on April 12, 2017 and was postponed for thirty days with the public
hearing to be continued. He went on to say should the Board of Supervisors find the use to be
appropriate, staff would recommend approval with conditions. He further stated the applicant
was present to answer any questions the Board may have.
Ed Donohue, legal counsel representing Shentel, addressed the Board and gave the
background on this request. He stated Shentel customers presented a petition with over 350
names in support of this request. He stated they looked at various sites and the only viable site
was the Bowman Library. He further stated there are more than 2,100 Sprint customers in this
area. He stated service is deficient in this area and calls are being dropped. He stated there is a
gap in coverage in this area and Shentel was attempting to cover that gap. He noted Shentel had

40'x 40' and will proffer $25,000 for site improvements at the library. He stated he provided
copies of the NEPA report at the April meeting, as well as a shorter summary. He stated their
proposal was in full compliance with Federal law. He stated they do have an issue with
visability. He stated the tower needs to be up in the air to be able to transmit its signal to the
customers. He stated they reduced the height of the tower and felt the color of the paint and the
fact the tower does not need to be lighted would help.
Vice Chairman Fisher asked about the petition and if they were all Shawnee District
residents.
Lynn Koerner, Site Acquisition and Project Development Contractor for Shentel,
addressed the Board and stated they could distinguish 103 names and addresses. He stated
Shentel could determine the petition signatures covered to the South of Stephens City near the
funeral parlor over to the tower at Sherando and near the water tank and Route 11.
Chairman DeHaven convened the public hearing.
Dr. Silvester, Shawnee District, addressed the Board and thanked Vice Chairman Fisher
and Supervisor Wells for attending the meetings to discuss this request and he thanked
Supervisor Slaughter for attending the planning meeting. He stated they have a petition of 422
signatures with 75% being Shawnee District, Stephens City based. The majority are in the
Lakeside area. He stated that he, Harrington Smith, Ken Stiles and Ken Frey had fought hard to
keep this tract of land from commercial development. He stated he is not in agreement with for
profit enterprises on public land; it would set a precedent. He stated he felt the parks are sacred

grounds and requested the Board to please vote no on this application. He further stated the US
Fisheries recommend, but did not require, that a cell tower should not be built near a lake. He
stated the lake is an eco-system and needs to be protected. He thanked the Board for listening to
him and would accept whatever decision they make.
Kari Jones, resident of Stephens City and manager of the Sprint store in Winchester,
addressed the Board and stated they have multiple customers that have asked for more service in
this area. She asked what would happen when Stephens City grows; people cannot call out to
911. She asked the Board to consider approving this request.

request. She stated that some citizens have said it is an issue of better service but that she has not
had any trouble with coverage.
Jonathan Silvester, Shawnee District, addressed the Board in opposition to this request.
He stated they have a petition with over 400 signatures opposing this application. He stated the
Board could deny it based on aesthetics alone. He stated this tower does not belong between a

this request.
Marta Garcia, Opequon District, addressed the Board and stated she would like to have
the tower in Stephens City and was in favor of this request.

Board of Supervisors Closed Session and Regular Meeting of 05/24/17
County of Frederick, Virginia
request. He stated he lived on Belle Haven Drive and that it was difficult to make a call from his
house and he did not have a land line.
Tim and Darlene Davis, Shawnee District, addressed the Board and stated they would
be in direct view of the tower; they would be less than 250' away and currently have a full view
of the lake. They stated this would affect their property value and the aesthetics of this would
affect them the rest of their lives. They stated they do not have a landline and they have no
problem with cell service. They asked the Board to deny this request.
Danielle Good, Shawnee District, addressed the Board and stated she was in favor of the
tower and that it would benefit the citizens in her complex.
Mike Roma and Maddie Roma (daughter), Shawnee District, addressed the Board and
stated they are opposed to this request. They stated this was a community area and that this
proposed location was more than just a piece of land.

this request. She stated she felt the Board of Supervisors would be justified to say no; they have
to draw the line somewhere. She stated the Planning Commission recommended denial.

this request. She stated the view of the trees and lake were part of the reasons why she moved to
this area.

request. He stated this would ruin the Lakeside area.

Board of Supervisors Closed Session and Regular Meeting of 05/24/17
County of Frederick, Virginia
Ruth Jimenez, Shawnee District, addressed the Board and stated she was opposed to this
request. She stated communication is a priority as she is deaf. She stated her children are home
schooled and use the library and she did not want to see a tower there. She further stated she felt
it would create health issues and asked the Board to vote no.
Dana Harmon Keith, Shawnee District, addressed the Board and stated she was opposed
to this request. She stated she uses the phone and data all of the time; Facebook, etc. due to
being deaf and that video communication is vital. She stated she has Verizon and does not have
any problem.
Dody Stottlemyer, Shawnee District, addressed the Board and stated she was opposed to
this request. She stated she does not want the tower in view and asked the Board to deny this
request.
Ken Frey, Shawnee District, addressed the Board and stated he was opposed to this
request. He stated he could not believe the Board was considering placing a tower, a piece of
commercial equipment, by a library in a residential area. He stated he was concerned about
radiation affecting people at the library and getting into the lake and water and stated there was
nothing to filter out radiation.
Patsy Gochenour, Red Bud District, addressed the Board and stated she was opposed to
this request. She stated in her opinion, based on involvement for fifty years, and involvement in
education, communication is being lost to hand held devices. She stated education increases joy
of living and learning and asked the Board to vote no.
Leo Smith, Shawnee District, addressed the Board and stated he was opposed to this
request. He stated he felt Shentel had made it look like this area was the only option and he felt
there were other commercial sites available and money was a factor.

County of Frederick, Virginia

Association and asked who would be responsible for fixing the fencing if it gets torn up.
There were no further public comments.
Chairman DeHaven closed the public hearing.
Ed Donohue addressed the Board and stated, with reference to the emissions, that was
not in the Board's purview and could not be considered during deliberations and that Shentel was
in Federal compliance. He stated they looked exhaustively at alternate sites and the need for
service is there and the need would continue to be there. He stated they can make improvements
to the landscaping and have proposed what they could to lessen the visibility of the tower.
Vice Chairman Fisher stated he appreciated the civility from everyone involved during all
the meetings and during this process.
Upon a motion made by Vice Chairman Fisher, seconded by Supervisor Wells,

District, was denied.
Resolution
Denying Conditional Use Permit Application Number 01-17
of Shenandoah Mobile, LLC for a Telecommunications Tower Facility, and the Request of
Shenandoah Mobile, LLLC, for a Setback Waiver on Property Located at
871 Tasker Road, Tax Parcel Number 75B-A-1, in the Shawnee Magisterial District
WHEREAS, on February 3, 2017, Shenandoah Mobile, LLC submitted Conditional Use Permit
Application Number 01-17 ("the Application"), requesting approval of a Conditional Use Permit
(CUP), pursuant to Frederick County Code § 165-204.19, for a telecommunications tower
facility, on property located at 871 Tasker Road, Tax Parcel Number 75B-A-1 (Property), in the
19
Board of Supervisors Closed Session and Regular Meeting of 05/24/17
County of Frederick, Virginia
Shawnee Magisterial District; and
WHEREAS, the Frederick County Planning Commission conducted a public hearing on the
Application on March 1, 2017; and
WHEREAS, the Frederick County Planning Commission recommended denial of the
Application on March 1, 2017, on a 9-1 vote; and
WHEREAS, the Board of Supervisors conducted a public hearing on the Application on April
12, 2017, continued to May 24, 2017; and
WHEREAS, the Property and the properties adjacent to the Property are in the Residential
Performance (RP) Zoning District and, with the exception of the Bowman Library facility itself,
which serves as a local cultural center for the community, the Property and the properties
adjacent to the Property are used for predominantly residential purposes or are vacant; and
WHEREAS, the Board of Supervisors finds the requested use of the Property for a
telecommunications tower facility is not in conformance with the Comprehensive Plan, for the
following reasons:
• With respect to the County's residential areas, the Plan encourages the inclusion
of open space amenities, active, passive, and natural, located in close proximity to
all dwellings, with an emphasis on the provision of usable open space for resident
use and enjoyment; and
• The Property and the surrounding area are located within the area encompassed
by the Southern Frederick Area Plan component of the Comprehensive Plan and
the Southern Frederick Area Plan shows the Property as being planned for
residential uses; and
• The Southern Frederick Area Plan also identifies recreational uses on and in the
immediate vicinity of the Property, including along Lakeside Drive and around
the lake located behind the Bowman Library; and
• The simulations presented by the Applicant of the proposed telecommunications
tower facility reveal that the proposed site provides little, if any, screening for the
proposed telecommunications tower facility, thereby leaving unobstructed and
unsightly views of that facility from several different vantage points; and
• The Comprehensive Plan identifies the area in which the Property is located to
remain residential in character; and
• The Applicant's statement regarding conformance with the Comprehensive Plan is
particularly weak and unconvincing, as the Applicant acknowledges that
telecommunications facilities are not specifically addressed in the Comprehensive
20
Board of Supervisors Closed Session and Regular Meeting of 05/24/17
County of Frederick, Virginia
Plan, but asserts that it "feels that this proposed facility is in accordance with the
design principals (sic) of the Urban Area," none of which are identified by the
Applicant. The Applicant goes on to assert, in essence, that the proposed facility
is in conformance with the Plan simply because many residents live in the area of
the proposed facility and that "future growth is anticipated". The Board does not
agree with the Applicant's vague rationale, which is intended to, but does not
support its attempt to conclude that the proposed facility is in conformance with
the Comprehensive Plan; and
• The Frederick County Planning Commission has not approved the proposed
telecommunications tower facility under the provisions of Va. Code
§ 15.2-2232(A); and
• The Comprehensive Plan does not support the establishment of a 165-foot-tall
telecommunications tower on the Property; and
WHEREAS, although commercial telecommunications facilities are permitted by conditional
use permit in the RP District, such permission is expressly conditioned by § 165-204.19 of the
Frederick County Zoning Ordinance on the proviso that, pursuant to § 15.2-2232(A) of the
Virginia Code, the general location or approximate location, character, and extent of such
facilities must be substantially in accord with the adopted Comprehensive Plan or part thereof
and the Board finds that the Applicant has failed to establish compliance with the foregoing
provisions and the Board further finds that the general location or approximate location,
character, and extent of the telecommunications tower facility proposed in the Application is not
substantially in accord with the adopted Comprehensive Plan or part thereof, and
WHEREAS, although commercial telecommunications tower facilities may be permitted with
the approval of a conditional use permit in the RP District, such permission is also expressly
conditioned by § 165-204.19 of the Frederick County Zoning Ordinance, which provides that,
adjoining properties, surrounding residential properties, and scenic areas cannot be negatively
impacted by the proposed facility, and the Board finds that adjoining properties, surrounding
residential properties, and scenic areas would be negatively impacted by the proposed
telecommunications tower facility based on the height of the proposed tower facility and the lack
of adequate screening; and
WHEREAS, the Bowman Library serves as a local cultural center for the community and the
requested use would be inconsistent with that function; and
WHEREAS, the height of the proposed telecommunications tower, 165 feet, is significantly
greater than every structure in the immediate vicinity and, therefore, the proposed
telecommunications tower facility is incompatible with and out of scale with the height all of the
existing structures in the immediate vicinity of the proposed tower; and
WHEREAS, the telecommunications tower facility requested by the Applicant is proposed to set
back 127 feet from the property line, while said facility is required by the applicable provisions
21
Board of Supervisors Closed Session and Regular Meeting of 05/24/17
County of Frederick, Virginia
of the Frederick County Zoning Ordinance to set back at least 170 feet from the northern
property line; and
WHEREAS, the Applicant has requested a waiver of 43 feet from the setback requirement to
allow it to reduce the required setback from 170 feet to 127 feet from the northern property line;
and
WHEREAS, while the Board may approve a setback waiver such as the waiver requested by the
Applicant from the northern property line, it is under no obligation to approve any such waiver;
and
WHEREAS, under the circumstances presented in the Application regarding the proposed
establishment of a 165-foot-tall telecommunications tower facility on the Bowman Library site in
a predominantly residential area, with little, if any, screening of that proposed facility, the Board
should deny the foregoing setback waiver requested by the Applicant; and
WHEREAS, based on the Applicant's failure to secure approval of the foregoing setback waiver,
the Application would not comply with the requirements of the Frederick County Zoning
Ordinance; and
WHEREAS, the Property is located in an environmentally significant area, containing scenic
landscape, scenic features, and habitat for various wildlife, and the requested use would be
incompatible with and would negatively impact the area by detracting from the general viewshed
of the area, especially in view of the height of the proposed facility and the lack of adequate
screening of that facility;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Frederick County Board of Supervisors
does hereby deny the Applicant's setback waiver request for the proposed telecommunications
tower facility; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that, based on the foregoing grounds, the Frederick County
Board of Supervisors does hereby deny the Application, pursuant to Frederick County Code
§165-204.19, for a 165-foot-tall telecommunications tower facility, on property located at
871 Tasker Road, Tax Parcel Number 75B-A-1, in the Shawnee Magisterial District.
Supervisor Wells stated he was involved in this process from the beginning and in the
meetings and that he had been willing to listen to the citizens of Frederick County who lived in
this area who wanted the tower. He stated he had received many calls opposing this request but
other than tonight's speakers, no calls had been received in support of this request.
The above motion was approved by the following recorded vote:

ARTICLE IV

Part 401— RA Rural Areas District
§ 165-401.01 Purpose and intent.
A. The purpose of the rural area regulations is to preserve large, open parcels of land, tree cover,
scenic views, sensitive environmental areas and prime agricultural and locally significant soils.
The regulations provide for a variation in lot size, at a density not to exceed one unit per five acres.
The varying lot size is permitted in order to facilitate designs that blend in with the existing
and scape and preserve some larger tracts of undeveloped land in order to maintain the rural
character of the County, as well as provide a choice to home buyers.
B. The regulations are intended to reduce environmental impacts, such as soil erosion, by
requiring development which is sensitive to the existing features of the natural terrain and by
reducing the amount of clearing needed for roads. Diversity and originality in lot layout are
encouraged in order to achieve the best possible relationship between the development and the
land. Individual lots and streets should be designed to minimize alteration of the natural site
features, relate positively to surrounding properties and protect the views from surrounding areas.
It is intended that by allowing flexibility in the subdivision design, while at the same time requiring
that environmental concerns be addressed, a more attractive, environmentally sound and
economically viable development will result.
§ 165-401.02 Permitted uses.
Structures and land shall be used for one of the following uses:
A. Agriculture, farming, dairies, animal husbandry, and forestry.

Patsy Gochenour, Red Bud District, appeared before the Board and stated she valued
her vote and attended the Republican mass meeting held on May 22, 2017 as she just wanted to
vote for one of the Republican candidates for the Red Bud District Board of Supervisors but
could not vote unless she signed the pledge that was on the paperwork. She did not sign and
therefore had to leave the meeting.
BOARD OF SUPERVISORS COMMENTS
Supervisor Dunn stated there were 5000 people that voted for the Republican president
and congressman in the last election and there were less than 200 people that voted in the local
Republican mass meeting, so in order to allow more people to vote, he would favor a primary.

OTHER PLANNING ITEMS
RESOLUTION TO ALLOW TRANSFER OF DEVELOPMENT RIGHTS (TDR)
TO BE UTILIZED FOR PROFFER PAYMENTS WITHIN THE VILLAGE AT
MIDDLETOWN — POSTPONED FOR 30 DAYS
Chairman DeHaven stated he needed to abstain from discussion on this item and turned
the gavel over to Vice Chairman Fisher.
Assistant Planning Director Candice Perkins addressed the Board and presented this item.
She stated staff received a request from Dave Holliday Construction to allow the use of
extinguished Transfer of Development Rights (TDRs) to serve as monetary proffer payments
within the Village at Middletown. She stated this development is located within the Town of
Middletown but has proffers payable to Frederick County per the Joint Agreement for the
Administration of Proffers. She further stated the site was originally rezoned in 2006. The
proffers were revised in 2017. She went on to say that with the 2017 proffer revision an
allowance to utilize extinguished TDRs, subject to Board of Supervisors' approval, was included.
Ms. Perkins stated that The Village at Middletown proffered the following monetary
contribution:
16
Board of Supervisors Closed Session and Regular Meeting of 06/14/17
County of Frederick, Virginia
The Applicant shall contribute to the Town for transfer to the County the sum of
$13,952.06 per single family detached dwelling unit for capital improvements to capital
facilities located at Middletown Elementary School, Robert E. Aylor .Tumor High
School, Sherando High School, or any newly constructed capital school facility which
serves school age children of the Town of Middletown, payable upon the issuance of
an occupancy permit for each single family detached unit.
Per proffer 16.1 of the Village at Middletown -- "Subject to approval by Frederick County, in
lieu of the per font monetary contributions for School Construction as provided above, the
Applicant may extinguish a Transferrable Development Right (TDR) within Frederick County.
No monetary proffers for School Construction shall be required for any dwelling unit
constructed utilizing this method, but all remaining proffered commitments shall remain
applicable to such dwelling units".
She noted that proffer lb stated the use of TDRs in lieu of the monetary contribution is subject
to approval by the Board of Supervisors. She concluded by saying that, if approved, staff would
oversee the severance and extinguishment of all TDRs utilized for the proffer payments.
Supervisor Ewing asked if the school construction total amount would be waived.
Ms. Perkins replied yes.
Supervisor Ewing asked how a TDR would benefit the County as opposed to money.
Ms. Perkins replied it would preserve rural land.
Supervisor Ewing stated no money would go to the schools.
Ms. Perkins replied yes.
Supervisor Lofton stated that this would keep land rural which means no houses would be
built which means there would not be students for the school, etc.
Deputy County Administrator Kris Tierney stated that the concept of the TDR is taking
the development from an area in which it is not preferable and applying those rights to an area
where it is more preferable. He stated they have not seen a lot of this in Frederick County and
that it creates more of a market for the development rights.
Supervisors Slaughter asked about the implications of HB 549,
17
Board of Supervisors Closed Session and Regular ;Meeting of 06/14/17
County of Frederick, Virginia
Supervisor Lofton stated that this rezoning was already approved so new state legislation
would not apply.
County Attorney Rod Williams stated that was correct.
Supervisor Dunn asked if the value of proffers change over time.
Supervisor Dunn stated that if there is no TDR and if a farmer had 100 acres in a more
rural area, and the farmer built one house per acre, you would need public services once roads
are built. He stated he was trying to understand the indirect cost to the county and the eventual
direct cost.
Vice Chairman Fisher stated that by right, you would be relocating development from
where you do not want it to where you do.
Supervisor Lofton stated that it was the prerogative of the Board to turn down another
request that might come before them.
Supervisor Dunn stated that he had spoken to county staff and others and he would like to
postpone this request for 30 days in order to get a better understanding of it.
Supervisor Slaughter stated that she would second the motion.
Supervisor Lofton stated that he did not see that a postponement was in the best interest
as this has been in place. He stated the Board cannot determine the value; that is between the
buyer and the seller.
Supervisor Dunn stated that he felt the TDR was a good program but was concerned
about funds.
Supervisor Slaughter stated she concurred with Supervisor Lofton but felt that if a
Supervisor needed more time to digest the issue that was her reason to second the postponement.

MEMORANDUM
TO:
Board of Supervisors
FROM:
Jay E. Tibbs, Deputy County Administrator
SUBJECT:
Northwestern Community Services Performance Contract
DATE:
July 27, 2017
Northwestern Community Services is responsible for assuring, based upon available resources, the delivery
of publicly funded community -based behavioral health care services within the counties of Clarke,
Frederick, Page, Shenandoah, and Warren and the City of Winchester. Each year Northwestern
Community Services is required to enter into a performance contract with the Virginia Department of
Behavioral Health and Development Services. A stipulation of the contract is a requirement that
Northwestern Community Services submit this contract to the local governments of the served localities
for approval. This approval does not create any additional burdens for the locality.
There is not budgetary impact to the locality as the contract is between Northwestern Community Services
and the Virginia Department of Behavioral Health and Development Services. The local governing body
is not a party to the contract. In fact, a local government's approval of the contract is signified by its
approval of the community services board's budget request for local matching funds.
Frederick County is being asked to approve the Northwestern Community Services' performance contract.
Given that the Board has previously approved the community services board's budgetary request, the
approval of this performance contract is a formality.
Staff is seeking Board approval of the performance contract for Northwestern Community Services.

NORTHWESTERN COMMUNITY SERVICES
Information for County and City Resolutions Related to the Performance Contract
The Issue: Northwestern Community Services is required to enter into a contract with
the Virginia Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Services. This is
called a "Performance Contract". As a stipulation of the contract, it is required that
Northwestern Community Services submit this contract to the local governments for
review and approval. This review and approval does not create any additional burdens
for the local government.
Background: Northwestern Community Services is an "Operating" Community
Services Board (CSB") created by local governments pursuant to sections 37.2-500
through 37.2-512 of the Code of Virginia. The "Performance Contract" (the "Contract")
creates a formal relationship between the CSB and the Commonwealth of Virginia via
the Virginia Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Services (the
"Department"). The Department functions as the state authority for the public mental
health, developmental, and substance abuse services system. The CSB functions as
the local authority for that system. The relationship between and the roles and
responsibilities of the Department and the CSB are described in the Performance
Contract. The Department and CSB enter into the contract for the purpose of (1) funding
services provided directly or contractually by the CSB in a manner that ensures
accountability to the Department and quality of care for individuals receiving services,
and (2) implementing the mission of supporting individuals by promoting recovery, self-
determination, and wellness in all aspects of life.
The Code of Virginia reads:
§ 37.2-508. Performance contractfor mental health, developmental, and substance abuse
services.
B. Any community services board may apply for the assistance provided in this chapter by
submitting to the Department its proposed performance contract together with (i) the approval of
its board of directors for operating and administrative policy boards or the comments of the
local government department's policy -advisory board and (ii) the approval of the contract by
formal vote of the governing body of each city or county that established it. The community
services board shall make its proposed performance contract available for public review and
solicit public comments for a period of 30 days prior to submitting its proposed contract for the
approval of its board of directors for operating and administrative policy boards or the
comments of the local government department's policy -advisory board. To avoid disruptions in.
service continuity and allow sufficient tune to complete public revieiv and comment about the
contract and negotiation and approval of the contract, the Departnent may provide send -
monthly pavrnents of state-controlled funds to the community services board.
Community Services Boards are responsible for assuring, based upon available
resources, the delivery publicly funded community -based behavioral health care
services within those local jurisdictions. The contract specifies the services to be
provided by a community services board, the costs and revenue associated with those
services, all relevant state and federal statutory requirements applicable to community
services boards, and contains outcome and performance measures for services
provided.
Budget Impact: There is no impact to the local government budget. The contract is
between the Department and the CSB; local governing bodies are not parties to the
contract. In real operational terms, a local governing body's approval of the contract is
signified by its approval of the CSB's budget request for local matching funds. The
Contract only creates a formal relationship between the CSB and the Commonwealth of
Virginia via the Virginia Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Services.
Finally, the local governing body's approval of the contract reflects its agreement to
participate in supporting the services contained in the contract through its local
matching funds appropriation for its share of the local matching funds.
Options: If the governing body of each city or county does not approve the proposed
performance contract by September 30 of each year, the performance contract shall be
deemed approved or renewed. This approval is not necessary for the Department to
review, approve, and fund the performance contract.

FY 2017 AND FY 2018 COMMUNITY SERVICES PERFORMANCE CONTRACT
1. Contract Purpose
a. Title 37.2 of the Code of Virginia establishes the Virginia Department of Behavioral Health
and Developmental Services, hereafter referred to as the Department, to support delivery of
publicly funded community mental health, developmental, and substance abuse services and
supports and authorizes the Department to fund those services.
b. Sections 37.2-500 through 37.2-512 of the Code of Virginia require cities and counties to
establish community services boards for the purpose of providing local public mental health,
developmental, and substance abuse services; §§ 37.2-600 through 37.2-615 authorize
certain cities or counties to establish behavioral health authorities that plan and provide
those same local public services. In this contract, the community services board, local
government department with a policy -advisory community services board, or behavioral
health authority named in section 10 is referred to as the CSB. Section 37.2-500 or 37.2-601
of the Code of Virginia requires the CSB to function as the single point of entry into
publicly funded mental health, developmental, and substance abuse services. The CSB
fulfills this function for any person who is located in the CSB's service area and needs
mental health, developmental, or substance abuse services.
c. Sections 37.2-508 and 37.2-608 of the Code of Virginia and State Board Policy 4018
establish this contract as the primary accountability and funding mechanism between the
Department and the CSB, and the CSB is applying for the assistance provided under Chapter
5 or 6 of Title 37.2 by submitting this contract to the Department.
d. The CSB Administrative Requirements document is incorporated into and made a part of
this contract by reference and includes or incorporates by reference ongoing statutory,
regulatory, policy, and other requirements that are not contained in this contract. The CSB
shall comply with all provisions and requirements in that document. If there is a conflict
between provisions in that document and this contract, the language in this contract shall
prevail. That document is available at http://www.dbads.virginia.gov/professionals-and-
service-providers/csb-community-contracting, the community contracting web page.
e. The Department and the CSB enter into this contract for the purpose of funding services
provided directly or contractually by the CSB in a manner that ensures accountability to the
Department and quality of care for individuals receiving services and implements the
mission of supporting individuals by promoting recovery, self-determination, and wellness
in all aspects of life. The CSB and the Department agree as follows.
2. Relationship: The Department functions as the state authority for the public mental health,
developmental, and substance abuse services system, and the CSB functions as the local
authority for that system. The relationship between and the roles and responsibilities of the
Department and the CSB are described in the Partnership Agreement between the parties, which
is incorporated into and made a part of this contract by reference. The Agreement is available
on the community contracting web page. This contract shall not be construed to establish any
employer -employee or principal -agent relationship between employees of the CSB or its board
of directors and the Department.
3. Contract Term: This contract shall be in effect for a term of two years, commencing on July 1,
2016 and ending on June 30, 2018 if, by mutual agreement of both parties pursuant to the
provisions of § 37.2-508 of the Code of Virginia, it is renewed for an additional fiscal year with
the insertion of revised Exhibits A, E, F, and G for FY 2018.
2. 05-06-2016
FY 2017 AND FY 2018 COMMUNITY SERVICES PERFORMANCE CONTRACT
4. Scope of Services
a. Services: Exhibit A of this contract includes all mental health, developmental, and
substance abuse services provided or contracted by the CSB that are supported by the
resources described in section 5 of this contract. Services and certain terms used in this
contract are defined in the current Core Services Taxonomy, which is incorporated into and
made a part of this contract by reference and is on the community contracting web page.
The CSB shall notify the Department before it begins providing a new category or
subcategory or stops providing an existing category or subcategory of core services if the
service is funded with more than 30 percent of state or federal funds or both. The CSB
shall provide sufficient information to the Office of Support Services (OSS) in the
Department for its review and approval of the change, and the CSB shall receive the
Department's approval before implementing the new service or stopping the existing
service. Pursuant to 12VAC35-105-60 of the Rules and Regulations for Licensing
Providers by the Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Services, the
CSB shall not modify a licensed service without submitting a modification notice to the
Office of Licensing in the Department at least 45 days in advance of the proposed
modification.
2.) The CSB operating a residential crisis stabilization program shall not increase or
decrease the licensed number of beds in the program or close the program temporarily or
permanently without informing the Office of Licensing and the OSS and receiving the
Department's approval prior to implementing the change. The CSB shall ensure that,
once it is fully operational, the program achieves an annual average utilization rate of at
least 75 percent of available bed days as measured by data from CCS 3 service records
and Community Automated Reporting System (CARS) service capacity reports. A
residential crisis stabilization program shall accept any appropriate individuals under
temporary detention orders (TDOs) and establish clinical criteria specifying the types of
individuals under TDOs that it will accept. The CSB shall attach a copy of the criteria to
this contract for the Department's review and approval.
b. Expenses for Services: The CSB shall provide those services funded within the funds and
for the expenses set forth in Exhibit A and documented in the CSB's financial management
system. The CSB shall distribute its administrative and management expenses across the
three program areas (mental health, developmental, and substance abuse services),
emergency services, and ancillary services on a basis that is auditable and satisfies Generally
Accepted Accounting Principles. CSB administrative and management expenses shall be
reasonable and subject to review by the Department.
c. Continuity of Care: The CSB shall follow the Continuity of Care Procedures in Appendix
A of the CSB Administrative Requirements. The CSB shall comply with regional
emergency services protocols.
1.) Coordination of Developmental Disability Waiver Services: The CSB shall provide
case management services directly or through contracts to all individuals who are
receiving services under Medicaid Developmental Disability Home and Community -
Based Waivers (DD Waivers). In its capacity as the case manager for these individuals
and in order to receive payment for services from the Department of Medical Assistance
Services (DMAS), the CSB shall coordinate the development of service authorization
requests for DD Waiver services and submit them to the Department for authorization,
pursuant to the current DMAS/Department Interagency Agreement, under which the
3. 05-06-2016
FY 2017 AND FY 2018 COMMUNITY SERVICES PERFORMANCE CONTRACT
Department authorizes waiver services as a delegated function from the DMAS. As part
of its specific case management responsibilities for individuals receiving DD Waiver
services, the CSB shall coordinate and monitor the delivery of all services to individuals
it serves, including monitoring the receipt of services in an individual's individual
support plan (ISP) that are delivered by independent providers who are reimbursed
directly by the DMAS, to the extent that the CSB is not prohibited from doing so by
such providers (refer to the DMAS policy manuals for the DD Waivers). The CSB shall
raise issues regarding its efforts to coordinate and monitor services provided by
independent vendors to the applicable funding or licensing authority, such as the
Department, DMAS, or Virginia Department of Social Services. In fulfilling this service
coordination responsibility, the CSB shall not restrict or seek to influence an individual's
choice among qualified service providers. This section does not, nor shall it be
construed to, make the CSB legally liable for the actions of independent providers of DD
Waiver services.
2.) Linkages with Health Care: When it arranges for the care and treatment of individuals
in hospitals, inpatient psychiatric facilities, or psychiatric units of hospitals, the CSB
shall assure its staff s cooperation with those hospitals, inpatient psychiatric facilities, or
psychiatric units of hospitals, especially emergency rooms and emergency room
physicians, in order to promote continuity of care for those individuals. Pursuant to
subdivision A.4 of § 37.2-505, the CSB shall provide information using a template
provided by the Department about its substance abuse services for minors to all hospitals
in its service area that are licensed pursuant to Article 1 of Chapter 5 of Title 32.1.
3.) Medical Screening and Medical Assessment: When it arranges for the treatment of
individuals in state hospitals or local inpatient psychiatric facilities or psychiatric units
of hospitals, the CSB shall assure that its staff follows the most current Medical
Screening and Medical Assessment Guidance Materials. The CSB staff shall coordinate
care with emergency rooms, emergency room physicians, and other health and
behavioral health providers to ensure the provision of timely and effective medical
screening and medical assessment to promote the health and safety of and continuity of
care for individuals receiving services.
4.) Coordination with Local Psychiatric Hospitals: When the CSB performed the
preadmission screening and when referral to the CSB is likely upon the discharge of an
individual admitted involuntarily, the CSB shall coordinate or, if it pays for the service,
approve an individual's admission to and continued stay in a psychiatric unit or hospital
and collaborate with that unit or hospital to assure appropriate treatment and discharge
planning to the least restrictive setting and to avoid the use of these facilities when the
service is no longer needed.
5.) Targeted Case Management Services: In accordance with the Community Mental
Health Rehabilitative Services manual and the policy manuals for the DD Waivers
issued by the DMAS, the CSB shall be the only provider of rehabilitative mental health
case management services and shall have sole responsibility for targeted DD case
management services, whether the CSB provides them directly or subcontracts them
from another provider.
6.) Choice of Case Managers: Individuals receiving case management services shall be
offered a choice of case managers to the extent possible, and this shall be documented
by a procedure to address requests for changing a case manager or for receiving case
management services at another CSB or from a contracted case management services
4. 05-06-2016
FY 2017 AND FY 2018 COMMUNITY SERVICES PERFORMANCE CONTRACT
provider. The CSB shall provide a copy of this procedure to the Department upon
request. During its inspections, the Department's Licensing Office may verify this as it
reviews services records and examines the procedure.
7.) Access to Services: The CSB shall not require an individual to receive case
management services in order to receive other services that it provides, directly or
contractually, unless it is permitted to do so by applicable regulations or the person is an
adult with a serious mental illness, a child with or at risk of serious emotional
disturbance, or an individual with a developmental disability or a substance use disorder,
the person is receiving more than one other service from the CSB, or a licensed clinician
employed or contracted by the CSB determines that case management services are
clinically necessary for that individual. Federal Medicaid targeted case management
regulations forbid using case management to restrict access to other services by
Medicaid recipients or compelling Medicaid recipients to receive case management if
they are receiving another service. The CSB shall not establish or implement policies
that deny or limit access to services funded in part by state or local matching funds or
federal block grant funds only because an individual: a.) is not able to pay for services,
b.) is not enrolled in Medicaid, or c.) is involved in the criminal justice system.
8.) PACT Criteria: If the CSB receives state or federal funds for a Program of Assertive
Community Treatment (PACT), it shall:
a.) Prioritize providing services to individuals with serious mental illnesses who are
frequent recipients of inpatient services or are homeless;
b.) Achieve and maintain a caseload of 80 individuals receiving services after two years
from the date of initial funding by the Department; and
c.) Participate in technical assistance recommended by the Department.
9.) Virginia Psychiatric Bed Registry: The CSB shall participate in and utilize the
Virginia Psychiatric Bed Registry required by § 37.2-308.1 of the Code of Virginia to
access local or state hospital psychiatric beds or residential crisis stabilization beds
whenever necessary to comply with requirements in § 37.2-809 of the Code that govern
the temporary detention process. If the CSB operates residential crisis stabilization
services, it shall update information about bed availability included in the registry
whenever there is a change in bed availability for the facility or, if no change in bed
availability has occurred, at least daily.
10.) Preadmission Screening: The CSB shall provide preadmission screening services
pursuant to § 37.2-505 or § 37.2-606, § 37.2-805, § 37.2-809 through § 37.2-813, §
37.2-814, and § 16.1-335 et seq. of the Code of Virginia and in accordance with the
Continuity of Care Procedures in Appendix A of the CSB Administrative Requirements
for any person who is located in the CSB's service area and may need admission for
involuntary psychiatric treatment. The CSB shall ensure that persons it designates as
preadmission screening clinicians meet the qualifications established by the Department
per section 4.h and have received required training provided by the Department.
11.) Discharge Planning: The CSB shall provide discharge planning pursuant to § 37.2-
505 or § 37.2-606 of the Code of Virginia and in accordance with State Board Policies
1035 and 1036, the Continuity of Care Procedures, and the current Collaborative
Discharge Protocols for Community Services Boards and State Hospitals - Adult &
Geriatric or Child & Adolescent and the Training Center - Community Services Board

5. 05-06-2016
FY 2017 AND FY 2018 COMMUNITY SERVICES PERFORMANCE CONTRACT
by the Department that are incorporated into and made a part of this contract by
reference. The protocols are available on the Department's web site. The CSB shall
monitor the state hospital extraordinary barriers to discharge list and strive to achieve
community placements for individuals on the list for whom it is the case management
CSB as soon as possible.
d. Populations Served: The CSB shall provide needed services to adults with serious mental
illnesses, children with or at risk of serious emotional disturbance, individuals with
intellectual disability, individuals with other developmental disabilities who are receiving
services through the DD Waivers or are priority I or priority II on the DD Waiver waiting
list, or individuals with substance use disorders to the greatest extent possible within the
resources available to it for this purpose. These populations are defined in the current Core
Services Taxonomy.
e. Department of Justice Settlement Agreement Requirements: The CSB agrees to comply
with the following requirements in the Settlement Agreement for Civil Action No:
3:12cv00059-JAG between the U.S. Department of Justice and the Commonwealth of
Virginia, entered in the U. S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia on August
23, 2012 [section IX.A, p. 36]. Sections identified in text or brackets refer to sections in the
Agreement. Requirements apply to the target population in section III.B: individuals with
intellectual or developmental disabilities who currently (i) reside in training centers, (ii)
meet criteria for the DD Waiver waiting list, (iii) reside in a nursing home or an ICF, or (iv)
receive Medicaid Home and Community -Based DD Waiver services.
1.) Case management services, defined in section III.C.5.b, shall be provided to all
individuals receiving Medicaid Home and Community -Based Waiver services under the
Agreement by case managers who are not directly providing or supervising the provision
of Waiver services to those individuals [section III.C.5.c, p. 8].
2.) For individuals receiving case management services pursuant to the Agreement, the
individual's case manager shall meet with the individual face-to-face on a regular basis
and shall conduct regular visits to the individual's residence, as dictated by the
individual's needs [section V.F.1, page 26]. At these face-to-face meetings, the case
manager shall: observe the individual and the individual's environment to assess for
previously unidentified risks, injuries, needs, or other changes in status; assess the status
of previously identified risks, injuries, needs, or other changes in status; assess whether
the individual's individual support plan (ISP) is being implemented appropriately and
remains appropriate for the individual; and ascertain whether supports and services are
being implemented consistent with the individual's strengths and preferences and in the
most integrated setting appropriate to the individual's needs. The case manager shall
document in the ISP the performance of these observations and assessments and any
findings, including any changes in status or significant events that have occurred since
the last face-to-face meeting. If any of these observations or assessments identifies an
unidentified or inadequately addressed risk, injury, need, or change in status, a
deficiency in the individual's support plan or its implementation, or a discrepancy
between the implementation of supports and services and the individual's strengths and
preferences, then the case manager shall document the issue, convene the individual's
service planning team to address it, and document its resolution.
3.) Using a process developed jointly by the Department and VACSB Data Management
Committee, the CSB shall report the number, type, and frequency of case manager
contacts with individuals receiving case management services [section V.17.4, p. 27].

6.) Case managers shall give individuals a choice of service providers from which the
individual may receive approved Waiver services, present all options of service
providers based on the preferences of the individual, including CSB and non-CSB
providers, and document this using the Virginia Informed Choice Form available at
http://www. dbads.virginia. gov/library/developmental%20services/dds%20bulletin%201
l.pdf. [section III.C.5.c, p. 8].
7.) Case managers shall offer education about integrated community options to any
individuals living outside of their own or their families' homes and, if relevant, to their
authorized representatives or guardians [sec. III.D.7, p. 14]. Case managers shall offer
this education at least annually and at the following times:
a.) at enrollment in a DD Waiver,
b.) when there is a request for a change in Waiver service provider(s),
c.) when an individual is dissatisfied with a current Waiver service provider,
d.) when a new service is requested,
e.) when an individual wants to move to a new location, or
f.) when a regional support team referral is made as required by the Virginia Informed

8.) CSB emergency services shall be available 24 hours per day and seven days per week,
staffed with clinical professionals who shall be able to assess crises by phone and assist
callers in identifying and connecting with local services, and, where necessary, to
dispatch at least one mobile crisis team member adequately trained to address the crisis
[section III.C.6.b.i.A, p. 9]. This requirement shall be met through the regional REACH
program that is staffed 24 hours per day and seven days per week by qualified persons
able to assess and assist individuals and their families during crisis situations and has
mobile crisis teams to address crisis situations and offer services and support on site to
individuals and their families within one hour in urban areas and two hours in rural areas
as measured by the average annual response time [section III.C.6.b.ii, pages 9 and 10].
7. 05-06-2016
FY 2017 AND FY 2018 COMMUNITY SERVICES PERFORMANCE CONTRACT
Emergency services staff shall receive consistent training from the Department on the
REACH crisis response system.
9.) Comply with State Board Policy 1044 (SYS) 12-1 Employment First [section III.C.7.b,

management CSB, pursuant to § 37.2-505 and § 37.2-837 of the Code of Virginia that
requires the CSB to develop discharge plans in collaboration with training centers
[section IV.13.6, p. 16].
12.) In developing discharge plans, CSB case managers, in collaboration with PSTs, shall
provide to individuals and, where applicable, their authorized representatives, specific
options for types of community placements, services, and supports based on the
discharge plan and the opportunity to discuss and meaningfully consider these options
[section IV.13.9, p. 17].
13.) CSB case managers and PSTs shall coordinate with specific types of community
providers identified in discharge plans as providing appropriate community -based
services for individuals to provide individuals, their families, and, where applicable,
their authorized representatives with opportunities to speak with those providers, visit
community placements (including, where feasible, for overnight visits) and programs,
and facilitate conversations and meetings with individuals currently living in the
community and their families before being asked to make choices regarding options
[section IV.B.9.b, p. 17].
14.) CSB case managers and PSTs shall assist individuals and, where applicable, their
authorized representatives in choosing providers after providing the opportunities
described in subsection 13 above and ensure that providers are timely identified and
engaged in preparing for individuals' transitions [section IV.B.9.c, p. 17].

the CSB shall implement risk management and quality improvement processes,
including establishment of uniform risk triggers and thresholds that enable it to
adequately address harms and risks of harms, including any physical injury, whether
caused by abuse, neglect, or accidental causes [section V.C.1, p. 22].
18.) Using the protocol and real-time, web -based incident reporting system implemented by

8. 05-06-2016
FY 2017 AND FY 2018 COMMUNITY SERVICES PERFORMANCE CONTRACT
neglect as defined in § 37.2-100 of the Code of Virginia, serious injuries as defined in
12 VAC 35-115-30, or deaths to the Department within 24 hours of becoming aware of
them [section V.C.2, p. 22].
19.) Participate with the Department to collect and analyze reliable data about individuals
receiving services under this Agreement from each of the following areas:
a.) safety and freedom from harm,
b.) physical, mental, and behavioral
health and well being,
c.) avoiding crises,
d.) stability,
e.) choice and self-determination,
f.) community inclusion,

20.) Participate in the regional quality council established by the Department that is
responsible for assessing relevant data, identifying trends, and recommending
responsive actions in its region [section V.D.5.a, p. 25].
21.) Provide access to and assist the Independent Reviewer to assess compliance with this
Agreement. The Independent Reviewer shall exercise his access in a manner that is
reasonable and not unduly burdensome to the operation of the CSB and that has
minimal impact on programs or services being provided to individuals receiving
services under the Agreement [section VI.H, p. 30 and 31].
22.) Participate with the Department and its third party vendors in the implementation of the
National Core Indicators (NCI) Surveys and Quality Service Reviews (QSRs) for

services and records and to individuals receiving services from the CSB; however, access
shall be at the sole discretion of the CSB [section VI.G, p. 31].
9. 05-06-2016
FY 2017 AND FY 2018 COMMUNITY SERVICES PERFORMANCE CONTRACT
f. Emergency Services Availability: The CSB shall have at least one local telephone number,
and where appropriate one toll -free number, for emergency services telephone calls that is
available to the public 24 hours per day and seven days per week throughout its service
area. The number(s) shall provide immediate access to a qualified emergency services staff
member. Immediate access means as soon as possible and within no more than 15 minutes.
If the CSB uses an answering service to fulfill this requirement, the service must be able to
contact a qualified CSB emergency services staff immediately to alert the staff member that
a crisis call has been received. Using (1) an answering service with no immediate transfer to
a qualified CSB emergency services staff, (2) the CSB's main telephone number that routes
callers to a voice mail menu, (3) 911, or (4) the local sheriff's or police department's phone
number does not satisfy this requirement. The phone number(s) shall be disseminated
widely throughout the service area, including local telephone books and appropriate local
government and public service web sites, and shall be displayed prominently on the main
page of the CSB's web site. The CSB shall implement procedures for handling emergency
services telephone calls that ensure adequate emergency services staff coverage, particularly
after business hours, so that qualified staff responds immediately to calls for emergency
services, and the procedures shall include coordination and referral to REACH for
individuals with developmental disabilities. The CSB shall provide the procedures for
handling emergency services calls to the Department upon request.
g. Preadmission Screening Evaluations
1.) The purpose of preadmission screening evaluations is to determine whether the person
meets the criteria for temporary detention pursuant to Article 16 of Chapter 11 of Title
16.1, Chapters 11 and 11.1 of Title 19.2, and Chapter 8 of Title 37.2 in the Code of
Virginia and to assess the need for hospitalization or treatment. The evaluations shall be
performed by certified preadmission screening clinicians. Preadmission screening
evaluations are highly variable and individualized crisis assessments with clinical
requirements that will vary based on the nature of the clinical presentation. However,
the CSB shall ensure that all preadmission screening evaluations conducted by its staff
include at a minimum:
a.) A review of past clinical and treatment information if available;
b.) Pertinent information from the clinical interview and collateral contacts or
documentation of why this information was unavailable at the time of the evaluation;
c.) A documented risk assessment that includes an evaluation of the likelihood that, as a
result of mental illness, the person will, in the near future, cause serious physical
harm to himself or others as evidenced by recent behavior causing, attempting, or
threatening harm and other relevant information, if any;
d.) Thorough and detailed documentation of the clinical disposition and rationale for it;
e.) Documentation of all hospitals contacted, including state hospitals;
f.) Documentation of contact with the staff s supervisor and CSB leadership about the
evaluation when necessary and documentation of mandatory notification of CSB and
Department leadership within 60 minutes once an ECO has expired without locating

community coalitions, shall use the evidenced -based Strategic Prevention
13. 05-06-2016
FY 2017 AND FY 2018 COMMUNITY SERVICES PERFORMANCE CONTRACT
Framework (SPF) planning model to: complete a needs assessment using
community, regional, and state data; build capacity to successfully implement
prevention services; develop logic models and a strategic plan with measurable
goals, objectives, and strategies; implement evidenced -based programs, practices,
and strategies that are linked to data and target populations; evaluate program
management and decision making for enabling the ability to reach outcomes; plan
for the sustainability of prevention outcomes; and produce evidence of cultural
competence throughout all aspects of the SPF process.
e.) Logic Models: The logic models shall identify individual- (i.e., youth, families, and
parents), community-, and population -level strategies (e.g. environmental
approaches). One logic model shall outline CSB federal substance abuse block grant
(SABG) prevention set aside -funded services. The other model(s) shall be the CSB
partnership coalition's logic model(s) reflecting the collaborative relationship of the
CSB with the coalition in the implementation of community -level and environmental
approaches. The CSB shall use the Institute of Medicine model to identify target
populations based on levels of risk — universal, selective, and indicated. Substance
abuse prevention services may not be delivered to persons who have substance use
disorders in an effort to prevent continued substance use. The CSB shall utilize the
six CSAP evidenced -based strategies: information dissemination, education and skill
building, alternatives, problem identification and referral, community -based process,
and environmental approaches. Community -based process and coalitions and
environmental approaches are keys to achieving successful outcomes and are
Department priorities. CSBs shall use evidence -based prevention programs,
practices, and strategies. Seventy-five percent of SABG prevention set aside -funded
services shall be programs, practices, or strategies included in a federal list of
evidence -based interventions. A minimum of 25 percent of SABG prevention set

prevention set aside -funded prevention services.
g.) SYNAR Activities and Merchant Education: In July 1992, Congress enacted P.L.
102-321 section 1926, the SYNAR Amendment, to decrease youth access to
tobacco. To stay in compliance with the SABG, states must meet and sustain the
merchant retail violation rate (RVR) under 20 percent or face penalties to the entire
SABG, including funds for treatment. Merchant education involves educating local
merchants about the consequences of selling tobacco products to youth. This
strategy has been effective in keeping state RVR rates under the required 20 percent.
The CSB shall conduct merchant education activities with all merchants deemed by
the Alcoholic Beverage Control Board to be in violation of selling tobacco products
to youth in the CSB's service area. Other merchants shall be added if deemed to be
at higher risk due to factors such as being in proximity to schools. The CSB, itself or
in collaboration with the local coalition, shall continuously update the verified list of
tobacco retailers, including all retailers selling vapor products, by conducting store
audits. The CSB shall conduct store audits of and merchant education with 100
percent of tobacco retailers in its service area over a two year period. Beginning in
FY 2003, the Department allocated $10,000 annually to the CSB to complete
SYNAR-related tasks. All store audit and merchant education activities shall be
14. 05-06-2016
FY 2017 AND FY 2018 COMMUNITY SERVICES PERFORMANCE CONTRACT
documented in the Counter Tools system and recorded in the Social Solutions
Efforts to Outcomes — (ETO) Prevention Data System. Tobacco education programs
for youth with the goal of reducing prevalence or use are not to be identified as
SYNAR activities.
h.) Recovery Orientation: The CSB shall implement a plan for assessing and
increasing its recovery orientation over time in accordance with Section 5:
Advancing the Vision of the Partnership Agreement and shall administer the
Recovery Oriented Systems Indicators (ROSI) Consumer Survey (42 items) with a
statistically valid sample of five percent or a minimum of 70, whichever is larger, of

contract staff that provide case management services have completed the case
management curriculum developed by the Department and that all new staff complete it
within 30 days of employment. The CSB shall ensure that developmental case managers
complete the ISP training modules developed by the Department within 60 days of their
availability on the Department's web site.
6.) Developmental Case Management Services Organization: The CSB shall structure
its developmental case management services so that it does not provide case manage-
ment and DD Waiver services to the same individual to ensure the independence of
services from case management and avoid perceptions of undue case management
influence on service choices by individuals.
7.) Program and Service Reviews: The Department may conduct or contract for reviews
of programs or services provided or contracted by the CSB under this contract to
examine their quality or performance at any time as part of its monitoring and review
responsibilities or in response to concerns or issues that come to its attention, as
permitted under 45 CFR § 164.512 (a), (d), and (k) (6) (ii) and as part of its health

authorized representative that complies with the Human Rights Regulations and the
HIPAA Privacy Rule. The CSB shall provide ready access to any records or other
information necessary for the Department to conduct program or service reviews or
investigations of critical incidents.
8.) Response to Complaints: Pursuant to § 37.2-504 or § 37.2-605 of the Code of Virginia,
the CSB shall implement procedures to satisfy the requirements for a local dispute
resolution mechanism for individuals receiving services and to respond to complaints
from individuals receiving services, family members, advocates, or other stakeholders as
expeditiously as possible in a manner that seeks to achieve a satisfactory resolution and
advises the complainant of any decision and the reason for it. The CSB shall
acknowledge complaints that the Department refers to it within five business days of
receipt and provide follow up commentary on them to the Department within 10
business days of receipt. The CSB shall post copies of its procedures in its public spaces

described in Appendix E of the CSB Administrative Requirements to improve services.
2.) Department CSB Performance Measures Data Dashboard: The Department shall
develop a data dashboard to display the CSB Performance Measures in Exhibit B,

3.) Utilization Management: The Department shall work with the CSB, state hospitals
and training centers serving it, and private providers involved with the public mental

increasing its recovery orientation over time in accordance with Section 5: Advancing
the Vision of the Partnership Agreement and shall report on its recovery orientation on

d. Reporting Requirements
1.) Subsequent Reporting Requirements: In accordance with State Board Policy 1037,
the Department shall work with CSBs through the Virginia Association of Community
Services Boards Data Management Committee (DMC) to ensure that current data and
reporting requirements are consistent with each other and the current Core Services
Taxonomy, the current Community Consumer Submission (CCS), and the Treatment
Episode Data Set (TEDS) and other federal reporting requirements. The Department also
shall work with CSBs through the DMC in planning and developing any additional
reporting or documentation requirements beyond those identified in this contract to
ensure that the requirements are consistent with the current taxonomy, the current CCS,
and the TEDS and other federal reporting requirements.
2.) Community Consumer Submission: The Department shall collaborate with CSBs
through the DMC in the implementation and modification of the current CCS, which
reports individual characteristic and service data that is required under § 37.2-508 or
§ 37.2-608 of the Code of Virginia, the federal Substance Abuse and Mental Health
Services Administration, and Part C of Title XIX of the Public Health Services Act -
Block Grants, § 1943 (a) (3) and § 1971 and § 1949, as amended by Public Law 106-310,
to the Department and is defined in the current CCS Extract Specifications and Design
Specifications, including the current Business Rules. The Department will receive and
use individual characteristic and service data disclosed by the CSB through the CCS as
permitted under 45 CFR §§ 164.506 (c) (1) and (3) and 164.512 (a) (1) of the HIPAA
regulations and § 32.1-127.1:03.D (6) of the Code of Virginia and shall implement
procedures to protect the confidentiality of this information pursuant to § 37.2-504 or

required data from CSB electronic health record systems whenever this is possible.
4.) Surveys: The Department shall ensure that all surveys and requests for data have been

process. The Department shall comply with the Procedures for Approving CSB
22. 05-06-2016
FY 2017 AND FY 2018 COMMUNITY SERVICES PERFORMANCE CONTRACT
Surveys, Questionnaires, and Data Collection Instruments and Establishing Reporting
Requirements, reissued by Commissioner James Stewart on March 4, 2011.
5.) Streamlining Reporting Requirements: The Department shall work with CSBs
through the DMC to review existing reporting requirements including the current CCS
to determine if they are still necessary and, if they are, to streamline and reduce the
number of portals through which those reporting requirements are submitted as much as
possible; to ensure reporting requirements are consistent with the current CCS Extract
Specifications and Core Services Taxonomy; and to maximize the interoperability
between Department and CSB data bases to support the electronic exchange of
information and comprehensive data analysis.
e. Compliance Requirements: The Department shall comply with all applicable state and
federal statutes and regulations, including those contained or referenced in the CSB
Administrative Requirements, as they affect the operation of this contract. Any substantive
change in the CSB Administrative Requirements, except changes in statutory, regulatory,
policy, or other requirements or in other documents incorporated by reference in it, which
changes are made in accordance with processes or procedures associated with those statutes,
regulations, policies, or other requirements or documents, shall constitute an amendment of
this contract, made in accordance with applicable provisions of the Partnership Agreement,
that requires a new contract signature page signed by both parties. If any laws or regulations
that become effective after the execution date of this contract substantially change the nature
and conditions of this contract, they shall be binding upon the parties, but the parties retain
the right to exercise any remedies available to them by law or other provisions of this
contract.
The Department and its state hospitals and training centers shall comply with the Health
Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA) and the regulations
promulgated thereunder by their compliance dates, except where the HIPAA requirements
and applicable state law or regulations are contrary and state statutes or regulations are more
stringent, as defined in 45 CFR § 160.202, than the related HIPAA requirements. The
Department and its state hospitals and training centers shall ensure that any sensitive data,
including HIPAA-protected health information, personally identifiable information, and
other confidential data, exchanged electronically with CSBs, other providers, or persons
meets the requirements in the FIPS 140-2 standard and is encrypted using a method
supported by the Department and CSB. The Department will use 256 bit encryption
methods that are FIPS 140-2 compliant.
L Communication: The Department shall provide technical assistance and written
notification to the CSB regarding changes in funding source requirements, such as
regulations, policies, procedures, and interpretations, to the extent that those changes are
known to the Department. The Department shall resolve, to the extent practicable,
inconsistencies in state agency requirements that affect requirements in this contract. The
Department shall provide any information requested by the CSB that is related to
performance of or compliance with this contract in a timely manner, considering the type,
amount, and availability of the information requested. The Department shall issue new or
revised policy, procedure, and guidance documents affecting CSBs via letters, memoranda,
or emails from the Commissioner, Deputy Commissioner, or applicable Assistant
Commissioner to CSB executive directors and other applicable CSB staff and post these
documents in an easily accessible place on its web site within 10 business days of the date
on which the documents are issued via letters, memoranda, or emails.
23. 05-06-2016
FY 2017 AND FY 2018 COMMUNITY SERVICES PERFORMANCE CONTRACT
g. Regional Programs: The Department may conduct utilization review or management
activities involving services provided by the CSB through a regional program. If such
activities involve the disclosure of protected health information, personally identifiable
information, or other information, the information may be used and disclosed as permitted
under 45 CFR §§ 164.506 (c) (1) and (3) and 164.512 (k) (6) (ii) ) of the HIPAA regulations
and §32.1-127.1:03.D (6) of the Code of Virginia. If the CSB's receipt of state funds as the
fiscal agent for a regional program, as defined in the Regional Program Principles and the
Regional Program Procedures in Appendices E and F of the current Core Services
Taxonomy, including regional DAP, acute inpatient care (LIDOS), or state facility
reinvestment project funds, causes it to be out of compliance with the 10 percent local
matching funds requirement in § 37.2-509 of the Code of Virginia, the Department shall
grant an automatic waiver of that requirement related to the funds for that regional program
allocated to the other participating CSBs as authorized by that Code section and State Board
Policy 4010.
h. Peer Review Process: The Department shall implement a process in collaboration with
volunteer CSBs to ensure that at least five percent of community mental health and
substance abuse programs receive independent peer reviews annually, per federal
requirements and guidelines, to review the quality and appropriateness of services. The
Department shall manage this process to ensure that peer reviewers do not monitor their own
programs.
i. Electronic Health Record: The Department shall implement and maintain an electronic
health record in its central office and state hospitals and training centers that has been fully
certified and is listed by the Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information
Technology - Authorized Testing and Certification Body to improve the quality and
accessibility of services, streamline and reduce duplicate reporting and documentation
requirements, obtain reimbursement for services, and exchange data with CSBs.
j. Reviews: The Department shall review and take appropriate action on audits submitted by
the CSB in accordance with the provisions of this contract and the CSB Administrative
Requirements. The Department may conduct a periodic, comprehensive administrative and
programmatic review of the CSB to evaluate the CSB's compliance with requirements in the
contract and CSB Administrative Requirements and the CSB's performance. The
Department shall present a report of the review to the CSB and monitor the CSB's
implementation of any recommendations in the report.
k. Department Comments or Recommendations on CSB Operations or Performance:
The Commissioner of the Department may communicate significant issues or concerns
about the operations or performance of the CSB to the executive director and CSB board
members for their consideration, and the Department agrees to collaborate as appropriate
with the executive director and CSB board members as they respond formally to the
Department about these issues or concerns.
8. Subcontracting: The CSB may subcontract any requirements in this contract. The CSB shall
remain fully and solely responsible and accountable for meeting all of its obligations and duties
under this contract, including all services, terms, and conditions, without regard to its
subcontracting arrangements. Subcontracting shall comply with applicable statutes, regulations,
and guidelines, including the Virginia Public Procurement Act. All subcontracted activities
shall be formalized in written contracts between the CSB and subcontractors. The CSB agrees
to provide copies of contracts or other documents to the Department on request.
24. 05-06-2016
FY 2017 AND FY 2018 COMMUNITY SERVICES PERFORMANCE CONTRACT
A subcontract means a written agreement between the CSB and another party under which the
other party performs any of the CSB's obligations. Subcontracts, unless the context or situation
supports a different interpretation or meaning, also may include agreements, memoranda of
understanding, purchase orders, contracts, or other similar documents for the purchase of
services or goods by the CSB from another organization or agency or a person on behalf of an
individual. If the CSB hires an individual not as an employee but as a contractor (e.g., a part-
time psychiatrist) to work in its programs, this does not constitute subcontracting under this
section. CSB payments for rent or room and board in a non -licensed facility (e.g., rent subsidies
or a hotel room) do not constitute subcontracting under this section, and the provisions of this
section, except for compliance with the Human Rights regulations, do not apply to the purchase
of a service for one individual.
a. Subcontracts: The written subcontract shall, as applicable and at a minimum, state the
activities to be performed, the time schedule and duration, the policies and requirements,
including data reporting, applicable to the subcontractor, the maximum amount of money for
which the CSB may become obligated, and the manner in which the subcontractor will be
compensated, including payment time frames. Subcontracts shall not contain provisions that
require a subcontractor to make payments or contributions to the CSB as a condition of
doing business with the CSB.
b. Subcontractor Compliance: The CSB shall require that its subcontractors comply with the
requirements of all applicable federal and state statutes, regulations, policies, and reporting
requirements that affect or are applicable to the services included in this contract. The CSB
shall require that its subcontractors submit to the CSB all required CCS 3 data on individuals
they served and services they delivered in the applicable format so that the CSB can include
this data in its CCS 3 submissions to the Department. The CSB shall require that any
agency, organization, or person with which it intends to subcontract services that are
included in this contract is fully qualified and possesses and maintains current all necessary
licenses or certifications from the Department and other applicable regulatory entities before
it enters into the subcontract and places individuals in the subcontracted service. The CSB
shall require all subcontractors that provide services to individuals and are licensed by the
Department to maintain compliance with the Human Rights Regulations adopted by the
State Board.
The CSB shall, to the greatest extent practicable, require all other subcontractors that
provide services purchased by the CSB for individuals and are not licensed by the
Department to develop and implement policies and procedures that comply with the CSB's
human rights policies and procedures or to allow the CSB to handle allegations of human
rights violations on behalf of individuals served by the CSB who are receiving services from
such subcontractors. When it funds providers such as family members, neighbors,
individuals receiving services, or others to serve individuals, the CSB may comply with
these requirements on behalf of those providers, if both parties agree.
c. Subcontractor Dispute Resolution: The CSB shall include contract dispute resolution
procedures in its contracts with subcontractors.
d. Quality Improvement Activities: The CSB shall, to the extent practicable, incorporate
specific language in its subcontracts regarding the quality improvement activities of
subcontractors. Each vendor that subcontracts with the CSB should have its own quality
improvement system in place or participate in the CSB's quality improvement program.

b. Compliance: The Department may utilize a variety of remedies, including requiring a
corrective action plan, delaying payments, reducing allocations or payments, and
terminating the contract, to assure CSB compliance with this contract. Specific remedies,
described in Exhibit I of this contract, may be taken if the CSB fails to satisfy the reporting
requirements in this contract.
c. Disputes: Resolution of disputes arising from Department contract compliance review and
performance management efforts or from actions by the CSB related to this contract may be
pursued through the dispute resolution process in section 9.f, which may be used to appeal

cease immediately. The CSB and Department shall make all reasonable efforts to
ameliorate any negative consequences or effects of contract termination on individuals
receiving services and CSB staff.
2.) The CSB may terminate this contract immediately, in whole or in part, at any time
during the contract period if funds for this activity are withdrawn or not appropriated by

CSB and the Department under this contract shall cease immediately. The CSB and
Department shall make all reasonable efforts to ameliorate any negative consequences or
effects of contract termination on individuals receiving services and CSB staff.
3.) In accordance with § 37.2-508 or § 37.2-608 of the Code of Virginia, the Department
may terminate all or a portion of this contract, after unsuccessful use of the remediation
process described in section 9.e and after affording the CSB an adequate opportunity to
use the dispute resolution process described in section 9.f of this contract. A written
notice specifying the cause shall be delivered to the CSB's board chairperson and
executive director at least 75 days prior to the date of actual termination of the contract.
In the event of contract termination under these circumstances, only payment for
allowable services rendered by the CSB shall be made by the Department.
26. 05-06-2016
FY 2017 AND FY 2018 COMMUNITY SERVICES PERFORMANCE CONTRACT
e. Remediation Process: The remediation process mentioned in § 37.2-508 or § 37.2-608 of
the Code of Virginia is an informal procedure that shall be used by the Department and the
CSB to address a particular situation or condition identified by the Department or the CSB
that may, if unresolved, result in termination of the contract, in whole or in part, in
accordance with the provisions of section 9.d of this contract. The details of this
remediation process shall be developed by the parties and added as an exhibit of this
contract. This exhibit shall describe the situation or condition and include the performance
measures that shall document a satisfactory resolution of the situation or condition.
L Dispute Resolution Process: Disputes arising from any of the conditions in section 9.c of
this contract shall be resolved using the following process.
1.) Within 15 days of the CSB's identification or receipt of a disputable action taken by the

by the CSB, the party seeking resolution of the dispute shall submit a written notice to
the Department's Director of Community Contracting, stating its desire to use the
dispute resolution process. The written notice must describe the condition, nature, and
details of the dispute and the relief sought by the party.
2.) The Director of Community Contracting shall review the written notice and determine if
the dispute falls within the conditions listed in section 9.c. If it does not, the Director of
Community Contracting shall notify the party in writing within seven days of receipt of
the written notice that the dispute is not subject to this dispute resolution process. The
party may appeal this determination to the Commissioner in writing within seven days of
its receipt of the Director's written notification.
3.) If the dispute falls within the conditions listed in section 9.c, the Director of Community
Contracting shall notify the party within seven days of receipt of the written notice that a

4.) Within 15 days of notification to the party, a panel of three or five disinterested persons
shall be appointed to hear the dispute. The CSB shall appoint one or two members; the
Commissioner shall appoint one or two members; and the appointed members shall
appoint the third or fifth member. Each panel member will be informed of the nature of
the dispute and be required to sign a statement indicating that he has no interest in the
dispute. Any person with an interest in the dispute shall be relieved of panel
responsibilities and another person shall be selected as a panel member.
5.) The Director of Community Contracting will contact the parties by telephone and
arrange for a panel hearing at a mutually convenient time, date, and place. The panel
hearing shall be scheduled not more than 15 days after the appointment of panel
members. Confirmation of the time, date, and place of the hearing will be
communicated to all parties at least seven days in advance of the hearing.
6.) The panel members shall elect a chairman and the chairman shall convene the panel.
The party requesting the panel hearing shall present evidence first, followed by the
presentation of the other party. The burden shall be on the party requesting the panel
hearing to establish that the disputed decision or action was incorrect and to present the
basis in law, regulation, or policy for its assertion. The panel may hear rebuttal evidence
after the initial presentations by the CSB and the Department. The panel may question
either party in order to obtain a clear understanding of the facts.
7.) Subject to provisions of the Freedom of Information Act, the panel shall convene in
closed session at the end of the hearing and shall issue written recommended findings of
27. 05-06-2016
FY 2017 AND FY 2018 COMMUNITY SERVICES PERFORMANCE CONTRACT
fact within seven days of the hearing. The recommended findings of fact shall be
submitted to the Commissioner for a final decision.
8.) The findings of fact shall be final and conclusive and shall not be set aside by the
Commissioner unless they are (1) fraudulent, arbitrary, or capricious; (2) so grossly
erroneous as to imply bad faith; (3) in the case of termination of the contract due to
failure to perform, the criteria for performance measurement are found to be erroneous,
arbitrary, or capricious; or (4) not within the CSB's purview.
9.) The final decision shall be sent by certified mail to both parties no later than 60 days
after receipt of the written notice from the party invoking the dispute resolution process.

g. Contract Amendment: This contract, including all exhibits and incorporated documents,
constitutes the entire agreement between the Department and the CSB. The services

contract revision instructions contained in Exhibit E of this contract. Other provisions of
this contract may be amended only by mutual agreement of the parties, in writing and signed
by the parties hereto.
h. Liability: The CSB shall defend or compromise, as appropriate, all claims, suits, actions, or
proceedings arising from its performance of this contract. The CSB shall obtain and
maintain sufficient liability insurance to cover claims for bodily injury and property damage
and suitable administrative or directors and officers liability insurance. The CSB may
discharge these responsibilities by means of a proper and sufficient self-insurance program
operated by the state or a city or county government. The CSB shall provide a copy of any
policy or program to the Department upon request. This contract is not intended to and does
not create by implication or otherwise any basis for any claim or cause of action by a person
or entity not a party to this contract arising out of any claimed violation of any provision of
this contract, nor does it create any claim or right on behalf of any person to services or
benefits from the CSB or the Department.
i. Constitution of the CSB: The resolutions or ordinances currently in effect that were
enacted by the governing body or bodies of the local government or governments to
establish the CSB are consistent with applicable statutory requirements in §§ 37.2-500, 37.2-

Exhibit B: Continuous Quality Improvement (CQI) Process and CSB Performance Measures
The Department shall continue to work with CSBs to achieve a welcoming, recovery -oriented,
integrated services system, a transformed system for individuals receiving services and their
families in which CSBs, state facilities, programs, and services staff, in collaboration with
individuals and their families, are becoming more welcoming, recovery -oriented, and co-occurring
disorder capable. The process for achieving this goal within limited resources is to build a system-
wide CQI process in a partnership among CSBs, the Department, and other stakeholders in which
there is a consistent shared vision combined with a measurable and achievable implementation
process for each CSB to make progress toward this vision. Appendix E in the CSB Administrative
Requirements provides further clarification for those implementation activities, so that each CSB
can be successful in designing a performance improvement process at the local level.
Pursuant to Section 7: Accountability in the Community Services Performance Contract Partnership
Agreement, the CSB provides the affirmations in Appendix E of the CSB Administrative
Requirements of its compliance with the performance expectations and goals in that appendix. If
the CSB cannot provide a particular affirmation, it shall attach an explanation to this exhibit with a
plan for complying with the identified expectation or goal, including specific actions and target
dates. The Department will review this plan and negotiate any changes with the CSB, whereupon, it
will be part of this exhibit.
I. Exhibit B Performance Measures
The CSB agrees to monitor and collect data on the following Exhibit B performance measures
and to report measures I.D and E using the Exhibit B Quarterly Performance Measures Report.
A. The CSB agrees to monitor the percentage of individuals for whom the CSB is the
identified case management CSB who keep a face-to-face (non -emergency) outpatient
service visit within seven calendar days after having been discharged from a private
psychiatric hospital or psychiatric unit in a public or private hospital following involvement
in the civil involuntary admission process. This includes all individuals referred to the CSB
upon discharge from a private psychiatric hospital or psychiatric unit in a public or private
hospital who were under a temporary detention or an involuntary commitment order or who
were admitted voluntarily from a commitment hearing. The Department agrees to monitor
this measure for discharges from state hospitals through comparing AVATAR data on
individuals discharged from state hospitals to the CSB with CCS data about their dates of
mental health services after discharge from the state hospital. The Department agrees to
monitor this measure for discharges from private hospitals through comparing CCS 3 data
on individuals receiving inpatient services funded by the CSB and the next date on which
those individuals received outpatient services after the end date for the inpatient services.
B. The CSB agrees to monitor the percentage of adults (age 18 or older) in the Department of
Justice Settlement Agreement population receiving case management services from the CSB
whose case managers discussed integrated, community -based employment with them during
their annual case management individual supports plan (ISP) meetings or updates. The
Department agrees to monitor this measure through using CCS data and work with the CSB
to increase this percentage. Refer to State Board Policy (SYS) 1044 Employment First for
additional information and guidance. Integrated, community -based employment does not
include sheltered employment.
C. The CSB agrees to monitor the percentage of adults (age 18 or older) in the Department of
Justice Settlement Agreement population receiving case management services from the CSB
whose ISPs, developed or updated at the annual ISP meeting or update, included
44. 05-06-2016
FY 2017 AND FY 2018 COMMUNITY SERVICES PERFORMANCE CONTRACT
employment -related or employment -readiness goals. The Department agrees to monitor this
measure through using CCS data and work with the CSB to increase this percentage.
Employment -related or employment -readiness goals do not include sheltered employment or
prevocational services.
D. The CSB agrees to monitor and report in the quarterly Exhibit B Report the percentage of
individuals in the Department of Justice (DOJ) Settlement Agreement population receiving
case management services from the CSB whose case managers discussed community
engagement opportunities with them during their most recent annual case management
individual support plan (ISP) meeting or update. Community engagement is a DD Waiver
service that supports and fosters the ability of an individual to acquire, retain, or improve
skills necessary to build positive social behavior, interpersonal competence, greater
independence, employability, and personal choice necessary to access typical activities and
functions of community life such as those chosen by the general population; it does not
include community opportunities with more than three individuals with disabilities.
E. The CSB agrees to monitor and report in the quarterly Exhibit B Report the percentage of
individuals in DOJ Settlement Agreement population receiving case management services
from the CSB whose individual support plans (ISPs), developed or updated at the annual ISP
meeting or update, contained community engagement goals.
11. Data Quality Feedback
The Department shall provide regular reports to the CSB on the completeness and validity of its
CCS 3 individual and service data to improve data quality and integrity. When requested by the
Department, the CSB executive director shall develop and submit a plan of correction to remedy
persistent deficiencies in the CSB's CCS 3 submissions (e.g., a persistent fatal error rate of more
than 10 percent of its CCS consumer records) and, upon approval of the Department, shall
implement the plan of correction. Persistent deficiencies that are not resolved through this
process shall be addressed with an Individual CSB Performance Measure in Exhibit D. If the
CSB fails to satisfy requirements in the Exhibit D by the end of the contract term, the
Department may impose a one-time, one percent reduction not to exceed $15,000 of state funds
apportioned for CSB administrative expenses on the CSB. See Exhibit I for more information.
III. CSB Performance Measures: The CSB and Department agree to use the CSB Performance
Measures, developed by the Department in collaboration with the VACSB Data Management
and Quality Assurance Committees and available on the Department's web site at
www.dbads.virginia.gov, to monitor outcome and performance measures for CSBs and improve
the CSB's performance on measures where the CSB falls below the benchmark. These
performance measures include:
o intensity of engagement of individuals receiving mental health case management services,
o intensity of engagement of individuals receiving substance abuse outpatient services,
o intensity of engagement of children receiving mental health case management services,
o retention of individuals in community substance abuse services,
o percent of individuals receiving face-to-face developmental case management services in the
DOJ Settlement Agreement population for enhanced case management services,
o percent of individuals receiving in -home developmental case management services in the DOJ
Settlement Agreement population for enhanced case management services,
o adult civil temporary detention order (TDO) admissions to state hospitals per 100,000,
45. 05-06-2016
FY 2017 AND FY 2018 COMMUNITY SERVICES PERFORMANCE CONTRACT
o adult forensic TDO admissions to state hospitals per 100,000,
o adult civil TDO state hospital bed day utilization per 100,000,
o adult forensic TDO state hospital bed day utilization per 100,000,
o adult civil state hospital bed day utilization per 100,000,
o adult forensic state hospital bed day utilization per 100,000,
o health well being goal measure (DOJ measure),
o community inclusion goal measure (DOJ measure),
o choice and self-determination goal measure (DOJ measure),
o living arrangement measure (DOJ measure), and
o day activity measure (DOJ measure).

FY 2017 AND FY 2018 COMMUNITY SERVICES PERFORMANCE CONTRACT
Exhibit C: Discharge Assistance Program (DAP) Requirements
The Department and the CSB agree to implement the following requirements for management and
utilization of all current regional state DAP funds to enhance monitoring of and financial accountability
for DAP funding, decrease the number of individuals on state hospital extraordinary barriers to discharge
lists (EBLs), and return the greatest number of individuals with long lengths of state hospital stays to their
communities. These Exhibit C requirements do not apply to new state 2014 DAP funds, which the
Department allocates for individualized discharge assistance program plans (IDAPPs) that it approves.
1. The Department shall work with the VACSB, representative CSBs, and regional managers to develop
clear and consistent criteria for identification of individuals who would be eligible for IDAPPs and
acceptable uses of regional state DAP funds and standard terminology that all CSBs and regions shall
use for collecting and reporting data about individuals, services, funds, expenditures, and costs.
2. The CSB shall comply with the current Discharge Assistance Program Manual issued by the
Department, which is incorporated into and made a part of this contract by reference. If there are
conflicts or inconsistencies between the Manual and this contract, applicable provisions of the contract
shall control.
3. All regional state DAP funds allocated within the region shall be managed by the regional management
group (RMG) and the regional utilization management and consultation team (RUMCT) on which the
CSB participates in accordance with Appendices E and F of Core Services Taxonomy 7.2.
4. The CSB, through the RMG and RUMCT on which it participates, shall ensure that other funds such
as Medicaid payments are used to offset the costs of approved IDAPPs to the greatest extent possible
so that regional state DAP funds can be used to implement additional IDAPPs to reduce EBLs.
5. On behalf of the CSBs in the region, the regional manager funded by the Department and employed by
a participating CSB shall submit mid -year and end of the fiscal year reports to the Department in a
format developed by the Department in consultation with regional managers that separately displays
the total actual year-to-date expenditures of regional state DAP funds for ongoing IDAPPs and for one-
time IDAPPs and the amounts of obligated but unspent regional state DAP funds.
6. The CSB and state hospital representatives on the RMG on which the CSB participates shall have
authority to reallocate regional state DAP funds among CSBs from CSBs that cannot use them in a
reasonable time to CSBs that need additional regional state DAP funds to implement more IDAPPs to
reduce EBLs.
7. If CSBs in the region cannot expend at least 90 percent and obligate at least 95 percent of the total
annual regional state DAP fund allocations on a regional basis by the end of the fiscal year, the
Department may work with the RMG and participating CSBs to transfer regional state DAP funds to
other regions to reduce EBLs to the greatest extent possible, unless the CSBs through the regional
manager provide acceptable explanations for greater amounts of unexpended or unobligated regional
state DAP funds.
8. On behalf of the CSBs in a region, the regional manager shall continue submitting the quarterly
summary of IDAPPs to the Department in a format developed by the Department in consultation with
regional managers that displays year-to-date information about ongoing and one-time IDAPPs,
including data about each individual receiving DAP services, the amounts of regional state DAP funds
approved for each IDAPP, the total number of IDAPPs that have been implemented, and the projected
total net regional state DAP funds obligated for these IDAPPs.
9. The Department, pursuant to sections 6.f and 7.g of this contract, may conduct utilization reviews of
the CSB or region at any time to confirm the effective utilization of regional state DAP funds and the
implementation of all approved ongoing and one-time IDAPPs.

the following completed pages with signatures where required are due in the Office of
Support Services (OSS) by this date: signature pages of the contract body and Exhibit B,
Exhibit D if applicable, Exhibit F (two pages), and Exhibit G. Contracts shall conform to
Letter of Notification allocations of state and federal funds or amounts subsequently
revised by or negotiated with the OSS and confirmed in writing and shall contain actual
appropriated amounts of local matching funds. If the CSB cannot include the minimum
10 percent local matching funds in the contract, it shall submit a written request for a
waiver of the matching funds requirement, pursuant to § 37.2-509 of the Code of Virginia
and State Board Policy 4010, to the OSS with its contract. This requirement also applies
to end of the fiscal year performance contract reports if the reports reflect less than the
minimum 10 percent local matching funds.
During June and July, CSB Financial Analysts in the Department's Office of Fiscal and Grants
Management (OFGM) prepare electronic data interchange (EDI) transfers for the first two semi-
monthly payments (July) of state and federal funds for all CSBs and send the transfers to the
Department of Accounts.
07-11-16: The IS&T distributes FY 2016 end of the fiscal year performance contract report

During August and September, CSB Financial Analysts prepare EDI transfers for payments 5 and 6
(September) of state and federal funds for CSBs whose contracts were received and determined to
be complete by 08-12-16 and, after the OSS Community Contracting Director authorizes their
release, send the transfers to the Department of Accounts. Payments shall not be released without
complete contracts, as defined in Exhibit E and item 1 of Exhibit I. For a CSB whose contract is
received after this date, EDI transfers for these two semi-monthly payments will be processed when
the contract is complete and funds will be disbursed with the next scheduled payment.
50. 05-06-2016
FY 2017 AND FY 2018 COMMUNITY SERVICES PERFORMANCE CONTRACT
08-19-16: Department staff complete reviews by this date of contracts received by the due date that

of Notification allocations and advises the CSB to revise and resubmit financial forms
in Exhibit A of its contract if necessary.
2. The Offices of Mental Health and Substance Abuse, Child and Family, and
Developmental Services review and approve new service proposals and consider
program issues related to existing services based on Exhibit A.
3. The OSS assesses contract completeness, examines maintenance of local matching
funds, integrates new service information, makes corrections and changes on the
service forms in Exhibit A, negotiates changes in Exhibit A, and finalizes the contract
for signature by the Commissioner. The OSS Community Contracting Director
notifies the CSB when its contract is not complete or has not been approved and
advises the CSB to revise and resubmit its contract.
4. The IS&T receives CARS and CCS submissions from CSBs, maintains the
community services database, and processes signed contracts into that database as they
are received from the OSS.
08-19-16: CSBs submit their complete CCS reports for total (annual) FY 2016 CCS service unit

to the IT&S in time to be received by this date.
08-31-16: CSBs send complete FY 2016 end of the fiscal year performance contract reports
electronically in CARS to the IS&T in time to be received by this date.
IS&T staff places the reports in a temporary data base for OSS and OFGM staff to access
them. The OSS Community Contracting Director reviews services sections of the reports
for correctness, completeness, consistency, and acceptability; resolves discrepancies with
CSBs; and communicates necessary changes to CSBs. OFGM CSB Financial Analysts
review financial portions of reports for arithmetic accuracy, completeness, consistency,
and conformity with state funding actions; resolve discrepancies with CSBs; and
communicate necessary changes to CSBs.
Once they complete their reviews of a CSB's reports, the OSS Community Contracting
Director and OFGM CSB Financial Analysts notify the CSB to submit new reports
reflecting only those approved changes to IS&T. CSBs submit new reports to correct
errors or inaccuracies no later than 09-16-2016. The Department will not accept CARS
report corrections after this date. Upon receipt, the process described above is repeated to
ensure the new reports contain only those changes identified by OFGM and OSS staff. If
the reviews document this, OSS and OFGM staff approves the reports, and IS&T staff
processes final report data into the Department's community services database.
Late report submission or submitting a report without correcting errors identified by the
CARS error checking program may result in the imposition by the Department of a one-
time, one percent reduction not to exceed $15,000 of state funds apportioned for CSB
administrative expenses. See Exhibit I for additional information.

Exhibit L• Administrative Performance Standards
The CSB shall meet these administrative performance standards in submitting its performance
contract, contract revisions, semi-annual performance contract reports in the Community
Automated Reporting System (CARS), and monthly Community Consumer Submission (CCS)
extracts to the Department.
1. The performance contract and any revisions submitted by the CSB shall be:
a. complete, that is all required information is displayed in the correct places and all required
Exhibits, including applicable signature pages, are included;
b. consistent with Letter of Notification allocations or figures subsequently revised by or
negotiated with the Department;
c. prepared in accordance with instructions in the Department -provided CARS software and
any subsequent instructional memoranda; and
d. received by the due dates listed in Exhibit E of this contract.
If these performance contract standards are not met, the Department may delay future semi-
monthly payments until satisfactory performance is achieved.
2. Semi-annual performance contract reports submitted by the CSB shall be:
a. complete, that is all required information is displayed in the correct places, all required data
are included in the electronic CARS application reports, and any required paper forms that
gather information not included in CARS are submitted;
b. consistent with the state and federal block grant funds allocations in the Letter of
Notification or figures subsequently revised by or negotiated with the Department;
c. prepared in accordance with instructions;
d. (i) internally consistent and arithmetically accurate: all related expense, resource, and cost
data are consistent, congruent, and correct within a report, and (ii) submitted only after
errors identified by the CARS error checking programs are corrected; and
e. received by the due dates listed in Exhibit E of this contract.
If the CSB does not meet these standards for its semi-annual CARS reports, the Department
may delay future semi-monthly payments until satisfactory performance is achieved. The
Department may impose one-time reductions of state funds apportioned for CSB administrative
expenses on a CSB for its failure to meet the following standards in its end of the fiscal year
CARS report:
o a one percent reduction not to exceed $15,000 for failure to comply with standard 2.d; and
o a one percent reduction not to exceed $15,000 for failure to comply with standard 2.e, unless
an extension has been obtained from the Department through the process on the next page.
Monthly consumer, type of care, and service extract files shall be submitted by the end of the
month following the month of the extract in accordance with the CCS Extract and Design
Specifications, including the current Business Rules. The submissions shall satisfy the
requirements in section 11 Data Quality Feedback of Exhibit B and the Data Quality
Performance Expectation Affirmations in Appendix E of the CSB Administrative
Requirements. If the CSB fails to meet the extract submission requirements in Exhibit E of this
59. 05-06-2016
FY 2017 AND FY 2018 COMMUNITY SERVICES PERFORMANCE CONTRACT
contract, the Department may delay semi-monthly payments until satisfactory performance is
achieved.
4. If the Department negotiates an Exhibit D with a CSB because of unacceptable data quality,
and the CSB fails to satisfy the requirements in Exhibit D by the end of the contract term, the
Department may impose a one-time one percent reduction not to exceed a total of $15,000 of
state funds apportioned for CSB administrative expenses on the CSB.
Substance abuse prevention units of service data and quarterly reports shall be submitted to the
Department through the Social Solutions Efforts to Outcome (ETO) Prevention Data System.
i The Department will calculate state funds apportioned for CSB administrative expenses by
multiplying the total state funds allocated to the CSB by the CSB's administrative percentage
displayed on page AF-1 of the contract.
The CSB shall not allocate or transfer a one-time reduction of state funds apportioned for
administrative expenses to direct service or program costs.
Process for Obtaining an Extension of the End of the Fiscal Year CARS Report Due Date
The Department will grant an extension only in very exceptional situations such as a catastrophic
information system failure, a key staff person's unanticipated illness or accident, or a local
emergency or disaster situation that makes it impossible to meet the due date.
1. It is the responsibility of the CSB to obtain and confirm the Department's approval of an
extension of the due date within the time frames specified below. Failure of the CSB to fulfill
this responsibility constitutes prima facie acceptance by the CSB of any resulting one-time
reduction in state funds apportioned for administrative expenses.
2. As soon as CSB staff becomes aware that it cannot submit the end of the year CARS report in
time to be received in the Department by 5:00 p.m. on the due date, the executive director must
inform the Office of Support Services (OSS) Director or Community Contracting Director that
it is requesting an extension of this due date. This request should be submitted as soon as
possible and it shall be in writing, describe completely the reason(s) and need for the extension,
and state the date on which the report will be received by the Department.
The written request for an extension must be received in the OSS no later than 5:00 p.m. on the
fourth business day before the due date. A facsimile transmission of the request to the OSS fax
number (804-371-0092), received by that time and date, is acceptable if receipt of the
transmission is confirmed with a return facsimile memo from the OSS no later than 5:00 p.m.
on the third business day before the due date. Telephone extension requests are not acceptable
and will not be processed.
4. The OSS will act on all requests for due date extensions that are received in accordance with
this process and will notify the requesting CSBs by facsimile transmission of the status of their
requests by 5:00 p.m. on the second business day before the due date.

63. 05-06-2016

candidates and acting or interim executive directors. The CSB or BHA shall involve
staff in the Department's Office of Support Services (OSS) in its recruitment and
selection process in order to implement applicable provisions of § 37.2-504 or § 37.2-
605 of the Code of Virginia and to ensure selection of the most qualified candidate. The
CSB or BHA shall provide a current position description and salary and the
advertisement for the position to the OSS for review and approval prior to advertising
the position. The CSB or BHA board of directors shall invite OSS staff to meet with it
to review the board's responsibilities and to review and comment on the board's
screening criteria for applicants and its interview and selection procedures before the
process begins. The CSB or BHA board of directors shall follow the steps outlined in
the current CSB Executive Director Recruitment Process Guidance issued by the
Department, adapting the steps to reflect its unique operating environment and
circumstances where necessary, to have a professionally and legally defensible
recruitment and selection process. Department staff shall work with the board of
directors search committee to help it use the Guidance document in its process. The
CSB or BHA board of directors shall include an OSS staff as a voting member of its
search committee to provide the Department's perspective and feedback directly to the
committee.
Prior to employing a new executive director or CEO, the CSB or BHA shall provide a
copy of the application and resume of the successful applicant and the proposed salary to
the OSS for review and approval for adherence to minimum qualifications and the salary
range established by the Department pursuant to § 37.2-504 or § 37.2-605 and contained

BHA proposes employing the executive director or CEO above the middle of the salary
range, the successful applicant shall meet the preferred qualifications in addition to the
minimum qualifications. This review does not include Department approval of the
selection or employment of a particular candidate for the position. Section 37.2-504 or
§ 37.2-605 of the Code of Virginia requires the CSB or BHA to employ its executive
director or CEO under an annually renewable contract that contains performance
objectives and evaluation criteria. The CSB or BHA shall provide a copy of this
employment contract to the OSS for review and approval prior to employment of the
new executive director or CEO or before the contract is executed.
2. When an administrative policy CSB executive director position becomes vacant, the
CSB may involve staff in the Department's OSS in its recruitment and selection process

Virginia. The CSB shall provide a current position description and the advertisement for
the position to the OSS for review prior to the position being advertised pursuant to
§ 37.2-504 of the Code of Virginia. Prior to employing the new executive director, the
CSB shall provide a copy of the application and resume of the successful applicant to the
OSS for review and approval for adherence to minimum qualifications established by the
Department pursuant to § 37.2-504. This review does not include Department approval
of the selection or employment of a particular candidate for the position. While § 37.2-
504 of the Code of Virginia does not require an administrative policy CSB to employ its
executive director under an annually renewable contract that contains performance
objectives and evaluation criteria, the CSB should follow this accepted human resource
management practice.

(example: TANF/Caretaker). Households with no income due to school enrollment, no
employment, families not receiving child support and/or TANF/VIEW households with
no income would be handled on case by case bases. Depending on the circumstances
households may not be assessed a fee — final determination made by Parks & Rec.
-Fees must remain current. Delinquent or failure to pay the monthly fees will result in
discontinuation of services (final determination made by Parks & Rec.)
-Yearly review to be completed by the Child Care Worker per guidelines based on the
application date
A Parks & Rec Enrollment/Registration Packet is required at initial eligibility, beginning of each
new school year and summer enrollment. School year camp signups will be handled by the
client contacting Parks & Rec. directly to register.
A Parks & Rec enrollment packet will be given to the applicant by the Child Care Worker after
the household is found to be eligible for assistance. The applicant/client must complete the
enrollment packet and return it to Frederick County Parks & Rec. to complete the registration
process. The Packet includes: Participant Information Form, Installment Billing Authorization,
Medication Consent Letter, Medication Consent Form, & Parent Information Booklet.
When eligibility is determined, and confirmation of availability is obtained, a completed Child
Care Agreement form will be given to the client along with the Parks & Rec enrollment packet to
register through Parks & Rec. A second copy of the Child Care Agreement will be sent to the
basicREC Manager to notify them of a client's eligibility and pending enrollment to be
completed. (See attached sample)
Once enrollment is completed through Parks & Rec., by the client, the basicREC Manager will
sign the Child Care Agreement and return it to the Child Care Worker to be put in the clients file.
All fees are paid weekly, a week in advance and will begin the Monday following
enrollment/registration through Parks & Rec.
_Example: DSS Client completes registration through Parks & Rec on Wednesday
May 17, 2017. Fee assessed is $40/mo. The client's first payment of $10 will be
automatically withdrawn on Monday, May 22, 2017. This payment covers
services received the following week, May 29, 2017 — June 2, 2017 & will
continue each week thereafter until services terminate.
A revised Child Care Agreement will be sent to the client and Parks & Rec/basicREC Manager if
a client's services terminate. Agreements will be sent two weeks prior to the termination date.
Services will be terminated if the client fails to make the fee assessed to the household (final
determination made by Parks & Rec.) All fees are expected to be paid up to date by the client
upon termination date. Any remaining fees owed that aren't paid could prohibit services being
approved in the future. (Final determination made by Parks & Rec.)
Parks & Rec. will notify the Child Care Worker in a timely manner either verbally or in writing
when they request services to be discontinued of any Department of Social Services Client.
Parks & Rec. will notify the Child Care Worker of obvious underutilization of services that occur
on a consistent basis or services not being utilized at all so families who may be waiting to
receive services through Parks & Rec. can be processed accordingly.
Maximum enrollment availability per school or a total maximum enrollment for Social Services
clients will be at the discretion of Parks & Rec, and communicated to the Child Care Worker
accordingly. If enrollment through Parks & Rec. is being utilized by the maximum amount of
families determined by Parks & Rec., the Child Care Worker will maintain a waiting list of
clients based on the requested basicREC site being requested. Once space becomes available the
Child Care Worker will determine if the household is still eligible after receiving updated
information.
The Child Care Worker will provide a monthly updated spreadsheet to Parks & Rec./basicREC
Manager of current clients, monthly fee amounts, and eligibility periods. The Child Care
Worker and basicREC Manager will meet quarterly to verify enrollment, make updates or
address any concerns and each will provide an update to their agency supervisor.

SUBJECT: Public Works Committee Report for Meeting of June 27, 2017
DATE: June 30, 2017
The Public Works Committee met on Tuesday, June 27, 2017, at 8:00 a.m. All members were
present except David Ganse. The following items were discussed:
* * *Items Requiring Action * * *
Carry Forward request from the Frederick County Regional Landfill Budget, Refuse
Collection Budget and Roundhill Fire Station and Event Center Budget.
a. Landfill Requests — See attached justification (attachment 1)
12-4204-8006-00 Construction Vehicles and Equipment - Complete purchase of a
GPS system for CAT 826K Trash Compactor. Purchase was approved for
FY2017 but staff needed to test equipment prior to completing the purchase.
Therefore, the committee recommended endorsing the carry forward request in
the amount of $120,000.00 to complete the purchase of the GPS system.
Committee member Whit Wagner recommended the approval and committee
member James Wilson seconded the motion. The committee unanimously
approved the motion.
12-4204-8009-01 Miscellaneous Equipment (Gas to Energy Generators) — In the
FY2017 budget, the purchase of equipment used to monitor and set emissions for
both engines at the gas to energy plant were planned. In order to use monitoring
equipment, staff needed to attend training. Training for the equipment will occur
in the fall of this year. Once staff completes the training, the equipment will be
purchased at a cost of $10,000.00.
12-4204-8900-00 Improvements Other Than Buildings — Staff have been working with
the IT Department to purchase video surveillance equipment around the Landfill to
improve security. The final purchase of the equipment will occur in FY2018 budget.
Therefore, staff recommended carrying forward an amount of $100,000.00 for the video
equipment.

Refuse Collection Requests - See attached justification (attachment 2)
10-4203-3002-00 Professional Services — We are currently designing the plans for construction
of the Stephenson Convenience Center to replace the Clearbrook Convenience Center which will
be taken out of service by the end of 2017. The request of $9,000.00 is to fund the completion of
the design for the site plan.
10-4203-3004-03 Repair and Maintenance -Building and Grounds — The request of funds in the
amount of $61,600.00 are for some site improvements at the Middletown and Greenwood
Convenience sites. Completion of work has been delayed and is planned for the fall of this year.
The committee endorsed the requests totaling $70,600.00 to be carried forward in the Refuse
Collection budget. Committee member James Wilson recommended the approval and Supervisor
Robert Wells seconded the motion. The committee unanimously approved the motion.
Roundhill Fire Station and Event Center Request (attachment 3)
12-1226-8800-03 Buildings Roundhill Fire and Rescue — Staff recommends the unencumbered
funds left within the project budget be carried forward for any fund items that need to be
completed for this project. Currently, there is $29,379.00 remaining that is unencumbered. The
project is nearing completion and final matters should be completed by August 2017. We are
requesting that all unencumbered funds be carried forward totaling $29,379.00.
The committee endorsed the request to carry forward the subject amount. Supervisor Bill Ewing
recommended the approval and committee member James Wilson seconded the request. The
committee unanimously approved the motion. Note to Finance Committee: see attached amendment.
All of the carry forward requests will be sent to the Finance Committee for further review and
consideration.
***Items Not Requiring Action***
Staff updated committee on the status of the new Stephenson Convenience Site (replacement of the
Clearbrook Convenience Site). We are moving forward with the site and road plan designs. We
anticipate having designs finished in two to three weeks. We are coordinating with VDOT, FCSA and all
utility companies. We have to move phone and cable lines along the site and bring new electric service
into the site. We may have to relocate an existing FCSA water main as well. All of these utility costs
will be accounted for in the final project cost estimate. We will acquire an approximate three (3) acre
parcel for the convenience site along with an entrance road. Funding for the project is in the capital
contingency fund and is available when required. The initial project cost estimate is $540,000.00. We
will continue to update the board as we move along.

2. Over the past year, the Animal Shelter has received over $850,000.00 in donations. Some of the funds
have been designated to develop a spay/neuter program. We have begun developing a plan to expand on
the current program. Also, staff has discussed using most of the funding for an expansion or building an
addition to provide some space to allow visitation with animals, training, courses, etc. In order to develop
a good plan of action, staff requested from the Public Works Committee to authorize the development of a
subcommittee to research and discuss the proposed ideas. The committee overwhelmingly supported the
idea and an ad hoc committee was formed. From the Public Works Committee, Supervisor Gene Fisher
and committee member Whit Wagner both agreed to serve on the committee. We have also asked the
Building Inspections staff to assist with ideas. We have also reached out to Frederick County
Maintenance for their input. Also, a couple citizen volunteers will also assist with scoping. It is our
intent to come back to the committee in a couple of months for an update on proposed ideas and to
possibly move forward with a formal design process. (attachment 4)

SUBJECT: Amendment to the Carry Forward Request
Round Hill Fire Station & Event Center Project
DATE: July 19, 2017
COUNTY of FREDERICK
Department of Public Works
540/665-5643
FAX: 540/678-0682
At the June 27, 2017 Public Works Committee meeting a motion was unanimously
approved to carry forward the remaining unencumbered funds from the Round Hill Fire Station
& Event Center project. We are finishing final matters with the project and it should be
completed within the next few months. The intent of the request was to carry forward all
remaining funds which we indicated in the justification to be $29,379.00. However, after further
review, the actual amount of the remaining funds is $110,374.00. In reviewing the documents,
we misread the balance sheets and put down the lower amount.
It is our request to carry forward all of the remaining funds so that when the project is
complete, a final accounting of the project can be done. Since the project is a cost share between
Frederick County and Round Hill Community Fire Company, a final project cost is needed to
ensure the proper funds are repaid by the fire company. We therefore request that the amount of
$110,374.00 be carried forward and placed in the FY 2017/2018 budget for this project.
I plan to attend the Finance Committee Meeting should you have any questions. Thank
you for your consideration of this matter.

By way of background, the balance of the Canter Estates - Section 5 project was recently
transferred from Shoemaker Construction, the original developer, to K. Hovnanian Homes who is
now completing the development. Shoemaker Construction had paid the proffers on these two (2)
lots in 2006; however, they had not completed the construction homes on the lots. K. Hovnanian
Homes was unaware of the previous payment when they paid the proffers for the two (2) lots. The
Planning Department has updated its proffer tracking process. In doing so, it was identified that
the initial payments for the undeveloped lots were not transferred to the new tracking system.
This has been corrected.
Shoemaker Construction initially paid proffers on:
• Lot 399 Canter Estates 5 (permit 92579-2006) — 09/18/06 - $4,087.97
• Lot 400 Canter Estates 5 (permit 42807-2006)—10/10/06 - $4,087.97
K. Hovnanian Homes paid proffers on:
• Lot 399 Canter Estates 5 (permit #1013-2016)—11/02/16 - $4087.97
• Lot 400 Canter Estates 5 (permit #2536-2016) — 04/18/17 - $4087.97
A refund check should be made payable to K. Hovnanian Homes and mailed to 4090A Lafayette
Center Drive, Chantilly VA 50151. I have attached copies of each receipt. If any further
information is needed, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Frederick County
Cash Proffer Policy
As approved by the Board of Supervisors on January 28, 2009.
Proffered funds received by Frederick County will be held for the use specified by the proffer
language. In the case of funds proffered to offset impacts to fire and rescue services, in the
absence of other proffered specifications, the funds will be earmarked for the first due company in
the area of the subject rezoning at the time the proffered funds are received. All proffered funds will
be collected, held, and will accumulate until such time as a capital project funding request is
received from a qualifying County department, agency, or volunteer fire and rescue company.
Qualifying agency or departmental requests to access proffered funds shall be submitted to the
County=s Finance Department for processing. In order to qualify as a capital project the
following criteria must be met.
1) the item orproject must have a minimum value of f ve thousand dollars ($5, 000),
and;
2) the item/project must have an anticipated useful life of at least five (5) yews.
The Finance Department will forward requests to the Finance Committee for a recommendation to
the Board of Supervisors on the appropriateness of the use of proffered funds for the requested
purpose. To assist the Finance Committee and Board in their deliberations requests to utilize
proffered funds should include the following: 1) the amount of funds requested, 2) the total
project cost, 3)a detailed description of the desired capital project or purchase including a
discussion of how recent or anticipated development contributes to the need for the expenditure,
and, 4) indicate whether or not the itein or project is listed on the County=s Capital Improvements
Plan (CIP).
In order to comply with State Code ' 15.2-2-2298 (A) the Planning staff, working in conjunction
with the County Attorney, will attempt to insure that cash proffers associated with future rezonings
are appropriately addressed through inclusion of relevant capital projects in the County=s CIP prior
to acceptance of the proffered funds.
For the purpose of determining whether a projector item is appropriate for individual listing on
the CIP only, a threshold value of $100,000 and useful life of at least five year shall be utilized.
(This would not preclude the purchase of capital items valued at less than $100,000 utilizing
proffered fiends, where other relevant criteria are met and procedures followed.)

RECREATION RESERVE FUND

PURPOSE:
The Recreation Reserve Fund within the Frederick County Reserve Fund will be used for
Frederick County residents who need financial assistance for their children to participate in
recreation programs and to assist Frederick County in raising funds to fund capital projects
identified in the Frederick County Comprehensive Plan. This fund is not intended to provide
funds which can be substituted for traditional tax base funding.
GOAL:
Increase Frederick County youth participation in recreation for those who are unable to afford
recreation programs and provide recreation facilities identified in the Frederick County
Comprehensive Plan.
POLICY:
There are three types of funds within the Recreation Reserve Fund, the Recreation Assistance
Fund, specific capital project funds, and a general park improvement fund.
A. Recreation Assistance Fund:
Funds dedicated for Recreation Assistance will be placed in the Recreation Reserve Fund within
Frederick County's Reserve Fund as they are received. Each donation will be noted in a revenue
code (IOGL-3-010-018990-0027). Donations are non-refundable.
These funds will be utilized for individuals seeking recreation assistance based on their income
level according to the Economic Assistance Policy (4500.08). Each time an individual requests
assistance, Parks and Recreation staff will apply the standards from Policy 4500.08. If the
individual is eligible to receive assistance and funds are available, assistance will be provided
and accounted in the department's registration system. Staff will request the Commission to
recommend receiving the discounted registration fees from the Recreation Reserve Fund's
Recreation Assistance Fund at the July Parks and Recreation Commission meeting. This request
will be forwarded to the Finance Committee for recommendation to the Board of Supervisors
for reimbursement. The Recreation Assistance Fund is known as the PLAY Fund, an acronym
for People Lending Assistance to Youth.
B. Capital Project Funds
A capital project fund may be created for any capital project approved by the Frederick County
Parks and Recreation Commission and Frederick County Board of Supervisors. Twenty percent
of the total project cost must be pledged prior to the establishment and acceptance of donations
for a specific capital project fund in a revenue code (IOGL-3-010-018990-0027).
The Frederick County Parks and Recreation Commission will recommend utilizing the money
from the Recreation Reserve Fund within the Frederick County Reserve Fund to the Frederick
County Finance Committee to recommend to the Frederick County Board of Supervisors. The
31
Frederick County Board of Supervisors must approve the disbursement of the Recreation
Reserve Fund money within the Frederick County Reserve Fund.
C. General Park Improvement Fund
The general park improvement fund is for donations made to improve existing parks or facilities.
Donations may be of any amount, deposited into revenue code (IOGL-3-010-018990-0027), and
are non-refundable.
The Parks and Recreation Commission will recommend the use of General Park Improvement
Funds to the Finance Committee and the Board of Supervisors specifying the particular
improvement.
Auditing/Accountability:
All funds within the Recreation Reserve Fund will be accounted for annually by the Parks and
Recreation Department based on the balance provide by the Frederick County Finance
Department and the Parks and Recreation Department. This balance and activity will be reported
to the Parks and Recreation Commission annually.

Why Accident and Sickness Coverage?
The VFIS Accident and Sickness policies provide insurance protection to
help with the expenses of an unexpected injury or illness a member may
suffer as a result of participation in Covered Activities of emergency
service work. These expenses can be from medical expenses, lost
income due to disability, or other financial losses which affect a member
or their family.
The National Fire
Protection
Association reported 68,085 emergency
service personnel
injuries
in 20151. Despite this
statistic many
emergency service
members
continue to believe that
accidents only
happen to others
or that Workers' Compensation will
meet all their
financial needs in
the event
of injury, illness or even
death. This is
simply not always the
case.
Even in states with generous Workers' Compensation benefits, there can
be gaps in coverage. Common gaps are caused by waiting and
retroactive periods, maximum disability income benefit limits, and pre-
existing condition limitations such as heart or circulatory malfunction. In
addition, benefits for fundraising events, junior members, auxiliary
members, and trustees or directors may not be covered.
For over 45 years, VFIS has been offering insurance coverage which has
helped to insure emergency service personnel fill the coverage gaps for
the financial impact of unexpected illness or injury while performing
duties on behalf of the Emergency Service Organization. As the hazards
of emergency service work have changed and evolved, our program has
also evolved to keep pace with them. That's why VFIS is America's
leading provider of insurance products to Emergency Service
Organizations and is widely considered the premier provider of accident
and sickness insurance protection throughout the United States and
Canada.

Risk Management
Emergency Service Organizations are faced with many challenges. They
are responsible for protecting lives and property in an ever changing
environment. Much time is spent dealing with complex financial and legal
aspects of your organization.
You have requested this Accident and Sickness insurance proposal from
VFIS to help cover your members. Although well known for our
specialized insurance products, VFIS is equally recognized as the
national leader in providing risk management services to help our clients
identify and reduce their exposure to loss.
Your most important responsibility extends to the health and safety of
your personnel. As part of VFIS's commitment to help you with this
responsibility, we have developed a comprehensive series of training and
educational programs that are provided at little or no cost to clients who
purchase our insurance products. While insurance coverage is designed
to transfer financial responsibility of loss, it is just as important that we
offer resources to help you potentially prevent a loss from occurring or if
it does occur, limit its impact.
Following are a few of the education and training programs that VFIS
provides, which may be useful to help protect your personnel. We would
be happy to help you implement any of these programs. Please contact
VFIS to get started.
We are here to help.
VFIS Patient Handling addresses proper EMS patient movement,
partner pairing, maximum unassisted lifting weights and limitations of
equipment. The program includes an instructor's guide, participant
manual, a CD-ROM and video. This program will help your organization
provide training to minimize strains and sprains while lifting.
The VFIS Infectious Disease Program is available to assist you in the
development and implementation of your administrative and operational
infection control program. The program includes an instructor's guide
and participant manual.
The VFIS Emergency Vehicle Driver Training Program is available to
provide the basis for your driver training program. The program includes
an instructor's guide, participant manual, CD-ROM for PowerPoint, and
competency course video. VFIS Risk Control Communiques on
Intersections, Response Speed, and Warning Devices are also available
to help your organization develop standard operating guidelines.
As a VFIS client, you may request these training resources which are
available at no charge.

in addition to any benefit paid or payable under the policy.
Payments begin on the 261st week of disability or 521st week if the

by applying the impairment rating percentage to the Weekly Income
Benefit received by the member on the 29th day of Total Disability.
Subsequent changes in the Permanent Impairment rating due to an
Injury will not affect the Weekly Injury Permanent Impairment Benefits
paid or payable.
Permanent Impairment - means a medical condition which is a physical or
functional abnormality or loss, which remains after the maximum medical
rehabilitation has been achieved, and which is considered stable or non -

If the Total Disability Weekly Income Benefit payable on the 29th day of
Total Disability is $600.00 and the member's Permanent Impairment
rating is 70%, the lifetime Weekly Injury Permanent Impairment Benefit
would be $420 per week ($600 x 70% = $420).

$40,000, and increase further relief under the program from 10% to 20% and increase the annual
income limit for that relief from $50,000 to $60,000. The Commissioner has indicated that she
will have fiscal impact information available for presentation to the Committee in person at its

$8,000.00
ESTIMATED TOTAL
$471,324.44
(Increase of over$150,000.00 peryear)
Calculation of the impact of this relief is very labor intensive. Tax relief currently only
applies to principal residences plus a garage or other necessary building and one acre.
Therefore, properties over one acre are both taxed and given relief. Also factored into the
tax amount is if the property is owned by anyone other than the spouse(s) thus creating a
calculation that has to be a percentage of spouse(s) versus all other who are taxed as
owners at 100% of the tax due. Because of this complicated calculation method, each
property must be hand entered into the system to generate the tax bill. This does not allow
us the option to recalculate the various percentages without staff looking at every single
account.
Currently, the deferral program allowed by our Code is not being used. This deferral
program allows qualifying persons getting less than 100% relief to postpone or defer
payment of the tax amount as a debt against their property to be paid when the property is
sold. Taxpayers qualifying for this relief have concerns that their home is their major asset
so therefore they are hesitant to entail it. While the deferral program is unused, it remains
an alternative for those not qualifying for 100% relief. If the Finance Committee should
decide to go that route, I would still recommend that our initial bracket of relief at 100% be
increased to $30,000 total combined income.
Consideration was given to using more brackets or changing the higher income brackets,
but with the use of a deferral, such relief should not be required. Also many of the homes
in the higher brackets have larger assessed values and offer the homeowner other options.
Mr. Orndoff and I have discussed this proposal and he is agreeable to handling the deferral
program if it becomes active. The Treasurer would have to be the one to facilitate and
record such deferral so that proper collection could be made once the identified property is
sold.
This proposal is being brought forward because taxpayers in financial distress are
increasing, particularly in the lower income and asset brackets with costs rising on
medicines, utilities, nursing care and general living expenses.
Your discussion and consideration are greatly appreciated.

convenience store, but has been closed since 2011. This request is the first step to reopen
the convenience store; if the pump and haul permit is approved the applicant will next be
able to apply for a Conditional Use Permit seeking to reestablish the nonconforming use.
The subject property is outside the limits of the Sewer and Water Service Area (SWSA).
Frederick County Code, §161-201.05A, states that the Frederick County Board of
Supervisors, after receiving a written statement from the Health Department, may
approve a permanent pump and haul system permit if specific criteria is satisfied. This
request appears to comply with the code requirements and, therefore, Board
consideration of the request is appropriate.
Applicable Code Requirements and Analysis
Frederick County Code Chapter 161 addresses Sewage Disposal Systems and, more
specifically, permanent pump and haul systems are addressed in §161-201.05. In 2009,
the County revised its health system ordinance to enable the issuance of permanent pump
and haul system permits only upon the approval of the Board of Supervisors.
Additionally, criteria was established in §161-201.05 to offer guidance in the evaluation
of the merits of a request for a permanent pump and haul system. The following criteria
must be met in order to qualify to apply for a pump and haul system:
1. The structure to be served is one of the following:

RE: Pump and Haul Application

a. An existing dwelling that has no indoor plumbing and is
converting to indoor plumbing, or where an existing onsite sewage
system has failed;
b. An existing structure used as a place of worship;
c. An existing school structure;
d. An existing commercial structure; and
2. The Health Department has rejected an application for an onsite sewage
system otherwise permitted under this chapter, or an off -site system; and
3. All other options for a sewage system (i.e. off -site easement) have been
pursued and found unsatisfactory as evidenced by a denial letter issued by
the Health Department and/or documentation that a neighboring property
owner is uncooperative in giving an easement; and
4. There shall be no additional bedrooms or bathrooms added to the dwelling
or structure as a result of the permitting of a permanent pump and haul
system.
In correspondence dated March 17, 2017, from the Virginia Department of Health, it
states that a soil evaluation was conducted on the property and it was concluded that an
onsite sewage disposal system could not be supported by this property due to insufficient
area available for required drainfield and reserve area. The property owner has also been
unable to obtain an offsite easement (see attached letter). The property owner has
established a relationship with Martin Pumping Service LLC to service the requested
pump and haul system.
Conclusion
The property owner appears to have addressed the requirements of the County Code to
utilize a pump and haul system for the property at 3149 Front Royal Pike, Winchester.
This request appears to comply with the code requirements and, therefore, Board
consideration of the request is appropriate. It should be noted that the maintenance costs
associated with a pump and haul system can be expensive; however, it appears that this
system is the only available option to bring this property into compliance with the
requirements with the Frederick County Code and Health Department. Board of
Supervisors action on the request to permit a pump and haul system is requested.

MEMORANDUM

FROM: John A. Bishop AICP, Assistant Director — Transportation
RE: Gold Orchard Road (Route 708) Abandonment
DATE: August 3, 2017
In April of 2015 the Board of Supervisors held a public hearing and voted to abandon
Gold Orchard Road (Route 708). Recently, Staff was contacted and notified that the
language in the resolution would need to be updated.
Given the time that had passed, and in consultation with County Attorney Williams, the
determination has been made to treat this as a new request to abandon the roadway. To
that end, staff is seeking action on the attached resolution which directs the clerk to post
and advertise the intent to abandon Gold Orchard Road from approximately .02 miles
north of Carpers Pike (Route 259) to the end of the roadway.
Attached, please find the resolution, and map of the area. With the exception of an
access where Gold Orchard Road connects to Carpers Pike, the property surrounding the
entirety of Gold Orchard Road is owned by Mr. Cordell Watt who has originally
requested this abandonment to aid him in better securing his property.
Staff is seeking action from the Board of Supervisors.
