BOARD LIAISON REPORTS Supervisor Graber noted the recycling study being conducted by the Northern Shenandoah Valley Regional Commission is forthcoming. CITIZEN COMMENTS Lynn Schmitt, Back Creek District, noted her disappointment with the Public Works Committee decisions regarding Shawneeland’s budget. She said the Committee had undermined her Board member and the relationship between the Committee and the Shawneeland residents has been affected. 27 Frederick County Board of Supervisors Regular Meeting Minutes * February 26, 2020 8 Jeff Stevens, Back Creek District, said he ison the Shawneeland Advisory Committee and some Committee members wanted a position cut to balance the budget. Laura Jarrell, Opequon District, said the County tax rates are lower than all the surrounding localities. She urged the Board to advertise a five-cent tax increase. Kristin Koontz, Red Bud District, said she teaches in Loudoun County and urged the Board to trust the School Board regarding the need for funding. Jody Yeagy, Red Bud District, said she is a new resident who has learned that the Board does not fully support the schools. She urged the Board to support afive-cent tax increase. Chris Jarrell, Back Creek District, said he is a teacher in the County school system and asked the Board to think about the future of the County’s childrenwhen funding the schools. Brian Schmitt, Back Creek District, said he was disgusted by the Public Works Committee’s handling of the Shawneeland budget. Tim Regan, Back Creek District, said his concern is that money is spentcorrectly. He said a tax increaseis permissible if the residents know how the money is spent. Cathy Longerbeam, City of Winchester resident, cautioned the Board about the insidious nature of the opioid epidemic. BOARD OF SUPERVISORS COMMENTS Supervisor Graber referenced the joint meeting with the School Board earlier in the evening and said he was concerned that the Superintendent chose not to answer several questions. He said the school’s budget is difficult understand because it is not in categorical funding format. He said he cannot support a tax increase. Supervisor Fisher referenced the updated Rules of Procedure and Conduct that had been proposed in at the first meeting in January 2020. He offered to work on a committee to bring the document back with revisions for consideration by the Board. By consensus, the Board agreed to review the proposed update.

Wells; Gene E. Fisher; Whitney “Whit” L. Wagner; and Harvey E. “Ed” Strawsnyder, Jr. Committee Members Absent: J. Douglas McCarthy, Gary E. Longerbeam Note: Because Chairman McCarthy was not present, Supervisor Robert Wells was acting Chairman. Staff and others present: Joe C. Wilder, Director of Public Works; Kris Tierney, County Administrator; Gloria Puffinburger, Solid Waste Manager; Ron Kimble, Landfill Manager; Mike Stewart, Senior Project Manager; Rod Williams, County Attorney; Joseph Johnson, P.E.; Kevin Alderman, Shawneeland Manager; Kathy Whetzel, Animal Shelter Manager; Holly Grim, Assistant Shelter Manager; C. William Orndoff, Jr., Treasurer; Wayne Lee, Frederick County Public Schools Attachment 1 – Agenda Packet ITEM FOR INFORMATION ONLY 1-New Animal Shelter Training Facility. Due to high construction costs at this time, we are going to reject the bids for construction of the new facility. 2-Budget scenarios for the Shawneeland Sanitary District. The committee discussed at length about the budget scenarios provided by staff. The committee felt it is very important to keep up the maintenance of roads and to not cut any staff. Therefore, committee member Strawsnyder recommended budget scenario 2A which is the original budget submitted by staff with no fee increase. The motion was seconded by Supervisor Fisher and unanimously approved by the committee. This information will be passed on to the Board of Supervisors for final discussion. 3-Land Disturbance/Stormwater permit fee increases. Staff presented some proposed fee increases for the Engineering budget related to land disturbance and stormwater permit fees. We have proposed funding an additional Environmental Inspector in the Fiscal Year 2021 budget. We indicated to the committee that fees could be increased to offset the cost of an additional position. Since these funds are shared with the Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ), we would need to seek approvals from DEQ on any fee schedule revisions. DEQ has verbally indicated they can work with 33 Frederick County as we move forward with the proposed fee increases. Therefore, Supervisor Fisher made a motion to support moving forward withrevising the fee schedule to increase departmental revenue to offset funds for a new position. The motion was seconded by committee member Strawsnyder and unanimously approved by the committee. This information will be passed on to the Board of Supervisors for further discussion. 4-Recycling transportation costs and landfill impacts. There was a lengthy discussion about the state of recycling in Frederick County. Staff presented different options that could cut overall costs to the budget including: Cutting the plastics recycling program would save approximately $134,000 per a. year. However, the impact this would have on the community as a whole would be larger. The big concern is cost impacts at the Landfill by filling up valuable air space with plastics. It would send a negative message to the community that recycling is not as important as it should be and if citizens stop recycling now, it would be difficult to get the program going again. The message to the local industry would also be very negative and could indirectly cause industry to slow down or stop recycling altogether. This could lead to even more plastics being sent to the landfill. We could eliminate another day that the citizen convenience centers are open to b. save staff and operational costs. We proposed closing all sites on Sunday or another day during the week. After more discussion including one local waste/hauler, Ross Hewitt with RCS Container Service, it became clearer that eliminating or reducing the recycling program would have a ripple affect in the region. Continuing our current program of recycling will keep local consistency as we try to determine our best options in the future. The committee did not do a motion regarding this issue, but the committee recommends continuing the recycling program for Fiscal Year 2021. 5-Update on projects. Staff presented an update on the Albin Convenience Center project. The contractor, General Excavation, Inc. (GEI) began site work this week. Also, Staff informed the committee that the bridge beams for the Crossover Boulevard project have been completed. They will continue to work to complete the project on time or possibly ahead of schedule. 6-Sunnyside Plaza updates. Recently, Frederick County purchased Sunnyside Plaza located on North Frederick Pike and Fox Drive. The property is approximately 10 acres with several existing buildings. The county has contracted with OWPR, Inc. to provide architectural/engineering services to assist with the future use of this property as county office space along with the School Board. OWPR presented a PowerPoint presentation which is included with Attachment 1. We went over multiple options as provided in the report. Another option provided by committee member Wagner, was to include an option where no parking deck is proposed and determine based on local codes and space, how large a building could be placed on-site. We have determined this as option #4. Also, Supervisors Wells 34 offered the option of possibly using the old Robert E. Aylor Middle School as a possible site for office space in the future once the new school is constructed. The committee recommends that a joint works session be held with the Board of Supervisors and the Public Works Committee to discuss the different options to provide direction for staff and OWPR. It is imperative that we provide clear direction to the design team in the beginning of the process for what the future of Sunnyside Plaza will be in regard to county office space.

Wilder, Director of Public Works SU BJECT: Bid Results –Animal Shelter Training Facility DATE: February 21, 2020 Attached are the bid results we received on February 19, 2020 for a proposed training facility for the Frederick County Animal Shelter. Based on these results, staff is recommending that the bids be rejected, and the project be put on hold until the market conditions change,or we choose not to do the project. Due to the increase in construction costs with current development within the region, the costs for this project exceeds our proposed budget by over $300,000. All design costs to date have been paid for by donated funds and no local funds have been expended for the project. The design is valid for several years so we can attempt to rebid in the future if we desire. Since we have a large sum of donated funds, staff will look at utilizing these funds for other projects that can benefit the many different programs we offer at the Animal Shelter. 38 107 North Kent Street, Second Floor, Suite 200 Winchester, Virginia 22601-5000 ANIMAL SHELTER TRAINING FACILITY BIDS Kee Construction Company$862,803.00 Lantz Construction Company of Winchester$979,700.00 Facilities Support Services$1,021,800.00 H&W Construction Company$1,041,344.00 Juniper Construction$1,219,000.00 Henley Construction $1,500,000.00 39 MEMORANDUM TO: Public Works Committee FROM: Joe C. Wilder, Director of Public Works SU BJECT: Proposed Fiscal Year 2021 Budget Scenarios Shawneeland Sanitary District DATE: February 21, 2020 At the December 3, 2019 Public Works Committee Meeting, staff presented the proposed Attachment 2A) FY 2021 budget for the ShawneelandSanitary District. ( Within that budget, we proposed no sanitary district fee increases. Staff determined we could make cuts in the operational budget and return funds to the reserve account. During the meeting, the committee had concerns about the reserve dropping to lower levels due to recent emergencies. The committee recommended an increase of $140 for the sanitary district improved lot fees. The (Attachment 2B) revised budget with the fee increase is shown. After the meeting, staff hadreceived some comments opposing the fee increase. On February 3, 2020, the Shawneeland Sanitary District Committee held a regular scheduled budget meeting. During the meeting, Shawneeland residents expressed concerns about the increase in sanitary district feesas well.The Shawneeland budget was then discussed at the February 5, 2020 budget work session. From that meeting, the Board of Supervisors asked staff to evaluate a budget scenario where one full time operator position would be cut in the budget and $100,000 would be cut in the line item for repair and maintenance of roadswith an increase of sanitary district improved lot fee of $70. Staff understands that making these cuts would help return the (Attachment 2C) reserve account to higher levels sooner. Please see the attachment provided. The Board of Supervisor also asked stafftorecommend an alternative budget with similar cuts.With that in mind, we do not recommend the elimination of a full-time position. We have operated for over 15 years with four (4) full time operators. These positions are considered essentialservices with the need for them to report during all emergencies in Shawneeland (i.e. snow, floods, windstorms, etc.). With over 100 lane miles of roads, ditches and shoulders, this crew performs a tremendous service for Shawneeland. The possible elimination of one of these vital positions would affect the amount of work performed within 3: 107 North Kent Street, Second Floor, Suite 200 Winchester, Virginia 22601-5000 Shawneeland Sanitary District Budget Scenarios Page 2 February 21, 2020 Shawneelandby the work crew and would impact the current level of servicethat the residents have come to expect.Also, by cutting the repair and maintenance of roads line item, it would reduce the amount of road maintenance, especially prime and seal of the roads. Since we have had to perform road and culvert repairs on many of the roads over the last two years, our annual prime and seal contracts have not been done. These contracts help keep our existing roads sealed to eliminate water penetration and the creation of potholes and soft road services. In time, if the roads are not maintained in this way, the roads will experience failure and will incur more expenses to repair. With these impacts in mind, staff has prepared an alternative budget that would cut the budget by similar amounts as shown in Attachment 2C,but not eliminate a position. (Attachment 2D) It’s our recommendation that we maintain our current staff. We have reduced other operational budget line items to make similar cuts provided in Attachment 2C. Also, as in our first budget scenario, as shown in Attachment 2A, we do not recommend proposing a sanitary district fee increase in FY 2021. With the mild winter, we have not had to spend funds on excessive overtime, purchasing road chemicals, or any major road repairs. We expect to return at least $350,000 into the reserve account at the end of FY 2020, if not more. This will allow the reserve account to be increased quicker than we had originally thought. In conclusion, the Shawneeland Sanitary District and budget have been well managed and maintained over many years. We have a good relationship with the advisory committee and meet regularly with them to keep them updated on our daily operations. The reserve account is still over a million dollars andwith many of the road and culvert repairs recently done, we should be in much better shape if future emergencies occur. The residents have come to expect the level of service our staff provides. We always attempt to save funds whenever we can. Our long-term road maintenance plan focuses onpresent level maintenance such as prime and seal, culvert upgrades, grading paving operations, tree and limb trimming, etc.,whichkeeps the roads and right of ways in good shape. By continuing the on-going maintenance objectives, we will save costs by not having to do more expensive repairs down the road if we cut the road maintenance budget.We continue to recommend the original budget, assubmitted by staff on December 3, 2019 with no fee increase.The reserve account will rebound in time. If the Public Works Committee and Board of Supervisors wants to build the reserve quicker, staff recommends the proposed budget in Attachment 2D and not cutting the fulltime operator position. 41 107 North Kent Street, Second Floor, Suite 200 Winchester, Virginia 22601-5000 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 4: 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58 59 5: 61 MEMORANDUM TO: Public Works Committee FROM: Joe C. Wilder, Director of Public Works SUBJ ECT: Proposed Fee Increases Engineering Budget – Land Disturbance Permit Fees DATE: February 21, 2020 Attached is some possible land disturbance permit fee increases that staff could pursue to offset the cost of an additional Environmental Inspector position we have requested in the proposed Fiscal Year 2021 budget. Any fee increases will have to be coordinated with the Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) since we have a joint program with them. In talking with DEQ staff, they don’t think there will be any issues, but we can only increase fees in certain areas of the overall fee schedule. We would have to go through a process with DEQ and then local approvals by our Board of Supervisors that includes a public hearing. This process will take several months to complete but we can update the fee schedule, if so desired. 62 107 North Kent Street, Second Floor, Suite 200 Winchester, Virginia 22601-5000 63 MEMORANDUM TO: Joe C. Wilder, Director of Public Works FROM: Ron Kimble, Landfill Manager Gloria Puffinburger, Solid Waste Manager DATE: February 19, 2020 SUBJECT: Impacts of Reducing/Terminating Recycling Services Frederick C the most recent years, in the face of program changes and historic challenges. Although some growth can be attributed to population increases, a hike in the recycling rate after several years of stagnation is nonetheless a testament to the value of the service in the minds Should the recycling program be scaled back or terminated, Frederick County will face a public outcry when the service ends. Aside from a negative public perception, impacts to the regional landfill must be considered. The landfill is already experiencing an increase in annual tonnage of about 5 percent, exceeding projected budget numbers of 3 percent growth, based on population increases. A spike by as much as 12 percent in the Construction and Demolition Debris landfill is being driven by a robust economy and the thriving localconstruction industry. In short, the landfill is already nearing capacity faster than expected, although approximately 27years of useful life remain at the facility. County leadershaveagreedthat it is vital to conserve this resource for the future. On a day-to-day basis, additional tonnages hauled to the landfill will not create a noticeable impact to operations, as long as those recyclables (paper, cardboard, plastic jugs and bottles and cans) are combined with trash. However, there will besome additional effort required in managing the working face andissues with adding even more plastic to the already plastics-laden wastestream. Long-term, the cost of landfill airspace is of primary concern. The landfill stands to lose $174,000 in airspace each year if the recycling program ends. This is airspace that will be consumed by what is now diverted. As tipping fees increase and time passes, this figure will climb as the value of the airspace increases. Over a period of five years, staff projects this number to be nearly $900,000. Based on construction now underway at the landfill, development costs of just one acre of landfill space is $750,000. In an attempt to address concerns raised during budget work sessions, staffpresents the following scenarios for reducing the 3010 (Contractual Services) line item in the Refuse Collection (4203) budget: 1.Collecting only cardboard at the convenience sites for operational purposes and then in hauling that material to the 64 landfill in a single load createsa compaction problem at the landfill just as it does at the convenience sites in enclosed trash compactors. Cardboard, when not mixed with trash, is difficult to compact. Further, with recycling Page 2 -Budget Memo containers in place, it would be important to clarify for recyclers that cardboard placed inside the container is destined for landfilling. 2.One option to consider is the elimination of a single commodity from the recycling program as opposed to a program which is inconsistent at the various drop-offs. Since plastic jugs and bottles are the most difficult commodity to monitor and most costly to transport, terminating the plastic recycling programwould cut costs on the recycling side, keeping in mind ceasing diversion will drive up refuse hauling costs at the convenience sitesas even more plastics are discarded.Costs associated with plastic transportation and processing areprojected at $134,107 annually.Processing costs represent $2,487 a year. Recognizing that a change in paradigmtakes yearsto yield results, there is a national movement to reduce consumption, reduce packaging, shift the burden of disposal to producers, and the potential of federal assistance. County recyclers already complain that they are restricted to diverting onlyjugs and bottles. Since August, staff has successfully demonstrated that consolidation of plastics into a trash compactor reduces hauling costs. Staff is requesting the opportunity to expand this approach using existing equipment at the Albin convenience site once the new location is operational in July.Should a privately-run local recycling option become available, this option would be explored and could potentially cut transportation costs. 3.Since all refuse and recycling hauling and processing costs are derived from a single line item (10-4203-3010-00), curtailing refuse service in order to help fund increased costs related to the recycling program. Options include closing the the landfill closesreduces illegal dumping by the commercial sector after regular landfill hours, eases staff shortages at the center, trims staffingcosts by about $20,000 annually,and ensures that the containers are empty at ns.Based on a three-month average of 58 users, few take advantage of extended hours at 4.Staff also proposes that each convenience site close on Sundays, aligning weekend operational hours with that of the landfill. Staffing costs of the five hours in question total $32,360 each year,excluding benefits. This amount includes salary for the solid waste coordinator who is on-call each weekend when sites are open. Sites would remain operational 55 hours per week and the Star Tannery location, 26 hours. In terms of additional transportation, the trash hauler must collect trash containers at eight sites each Saturday evening so that sites remain operationalthrough the Sunday shift. Full trash containers are then set aside until the hauler delivers them to the landfill on Wednesday. Cost of these weekend pulls totals $47,000annuallyand another $66,560 each year for disposal of Sunday trash. Disposal costs could dip if additional residentsopt for private collection. The county has invested about $76,000 over the years in extra containers (swap cans) for this function. A separate cost-savings measure is to consider keeping Sunday hours intact, while closing one additional weekday,resultingin a savings of $67,320 annually in personnel costs, excluding benefits. Some savings in transportation, electrical and maintenance costs would also be expected. Should you require additional data, please let staff know. If approved, the 2020/2021budget for Refuse Collection also restores a limited glass recycling program, an option thatresidents have ardently requestedsince it was eliminated in 2018. /gmp cc:landfill file 65 66 Frederick County and Frederick County Public Schools Sunnyside Plaza Evaluation and Options Space Needs Assessment Update and 25, 2020 February 67 Departments Assessed Frederick / Winchester Environmental Health Office Department of Planning and Development Economic Development Commission Information Technology/GIS/MIS Frederick County Government Virginia Cooperative Extension Revenue Department of Social Services Commonwealth Attorney County Administration Commissioner of the Recreation Inspections Human Resources Voter Registration County Attorney Public Works Maintenance Parks and Treasurer Building Finance 68 Departments Assessed Coordinator of Policy and Public Information Department FCPS Planning and Development Department FCPS Student Support Services Department FCPS Testing and Assessment Department FCPS Information Technology Department FCPS Human Resources Department FCPS Special Instructional Services Frederick County Public Schools FCPS Instruction Department FCPS Construction Services FCPS Finance Department FCPS Safety and Security FCPS Records Retention FCPS School Nutrition FCPS 69 Frederick County Schools Needs: 101,000 SF 2013 Space Needs Assessment Results Frederick County Needs: 50,000 SF Overview of 2013 Assessment Shared Needs: 13,000 SF Total: 164,000 SF 6: in space needs since 2013 Space Needs have increased by 21,000 SF in last 7 years Frederick County Schools Needs: 53,000 SF 2020 Space Needs Assessment Results Frederick County Needs: 117,000 SF increase Overview of 2020 Assessment Shared Needs: 17,000 SF 12.8% Total: 185,000 SF a This represents 71 10% office space intended for 1 and have resulted in over utilization of space resulting in Growth in last 7 years has resulted in overcrowded conditions in - 38% or 7,500 SF Other Departmental Space Needs have increased from 0 Have maximized all available space and are having difficulty effectively serving clients cramped and crowded working environments Space Needs have increased by sharing Social Services are Multiple staff Summary of Growth Impacts person of multiple departments Department 72 Sunnyside Plaza 73 renovation to be viable as an option to ease Frederick County Space facilities assessment of the existing buildings communications and technology systems will be required strip mall is structurally sound but will require significant Team of Architects and Engineers visited Sunnyside Plaza and worked for ADA access New Electrical distribution, lighting, fire alarm, accessible restrooms will be required Sunny Side Plaza Acquisition by Frederick County finishes will be required required - evaluated the condition of the building Parking Lot will need to be re be required will system be will interior a HVAC roof conducted ADA New NewNewNew and site Needs OWPR Main 74 epartments and the School Division Departments with additional shell space for future expansion or lease 92,500 SF (shell space) x $90/SF = $8,325,000 (for future expansion or lease) Owners Costs (Furnishings, Fees, Contingency) (25%) = $14,811,250 develop Entire Property Option 1 (A&B) level Concrete Parking Deck (335 Spaces) = $9,045,000 t star construction D County (could be designed to be expanded to 670 spaces) - for Possible Solutions for Space Needs Deficit location = $875,000 2022 Build a new County Complex - Demolish Sunnyside Plaza and Re beyond 185,000 SF x $220/SF = $40,700,000 $300,000 per year - total = $59,245,000 Site Prep and Utility re - Building Demolition % escalation Total: $74,056,00* Option 1A: 3 - Option 1: Multi - *add Sub ΏΏΏΏΏΏΏΏΏΏΏ : Build half of new construction outlined in Option 1A and move all County offices 75 except Social Services/Commonwealth Attorney (these two departments would move into phase approach with the other half to be built in the future for School Board and other shared County and School needs.

Those in attendance were Jimmy Smith, Barry Vanmeter, Jeff Stevens, Jason Croasdale, Ken Baker, Supervisor Shawn Graber, Director of Public Works Joe Wilder, Kevin Alderman, and 12 people in the audience. Michelle Springer was absent. Jimmy called for approval/correction of the November 4, 2019 meeting minutes. Jeff made a motion to pass the minutes as written. Jason seconded the motion. Motion passed unanimously. Manager’s Report: The staff cleared the stumps and debris from the area between the golf greens. The ground has been seeded and we will add it to our mowing duties during the summer months. It will be easier to maintain. We bought a used Motor Grader. The old Motor Grader was 26 years old and finally had enough. We have machined all the gravel roads that have houses and added stone where it needed to be. This should get us through the winter months. In the spring we plan to do all the gravel roads. The staff has continued to cut trees throughout Shawneeland. We currently have 35 trails that have dead trees. Any trees that are that are hanging out over the road or that could potentially cause problems we are taking those trees as well. The wood that we are cutting will be left on the right of way for citizens to take. We encourage the citizens to take the wood, anything left we will at some point go back and clean up. If there are any questions regarding the wood, call the office. We are cutting high limbs around intersections with the boom ax. Please use caution when encountering the boom ax. We will have flaggers in place. In the spring we will begin the Grader Patching process. There are quite a few trails that are scheduled, and we will continue as the weather permits throughout the spring and summer. The trout has been ordered for the Fishing Derby. We ordered 406 trout which is the same amount as last year. The lake level is on the rise. On January 23, 2020 it was at 137 inches down and today is was 111 inches down. We are not draining the lake. The last time we had the siphons on was June 11, 2019 and that was to only exercise the siphons. The lake does have a leak and with the dry weather the result is a low lake level. Proposed Budget for Fiscal Year 2020-2021: The proposed budget is $1,146,023. To cover the budget $935,940 will come from the Sanitary District Fees and $210,083 will come from the Reserve Fund. There is no Capital Request for the proposed budget. One of the biggest expenses is the Tar and Chip. We have not done Tar and Chip for 2 years. The budget is bare bones from what was presented to us and then to the Public Works Committee. The Public Works Committee is proposing to increase the Improved Lot Fee by $140. Joe Wilder spoke on the proposed increase fee. The Public Works Committee feels a concern that the Reserve Fund is decreasing. The Public Works Committee has adopted that fee increase as part of their report. The important thing to remember is that the Board of Supervisors must approve it. That will happen in March 2020. Joe Wilder touched on the point that Shawneeland runs solely on the Sanitary District Fees. If the Reserve Fund continues to drop there is no other account or savings to pay for things 94 or emergencies. If Shawneeland runs out of money, there will have to be some type of bond or loan to help run the Sanitary District. The County does not want that to happen. If you have a concern about the fee increase, then I would recommend you attend a Board of Supervisors budget meeting. How did the Public Works Committee come up with that number? At first it started out at $300. The Public Works Committee feels that there is a deficit of what the budget is and what the revenues are. After discussion they decided to bring it down to $140. There are residents that live on a limited fixed income. How can you expect them to pay? It is a matter of the board making the recommendation. The budget and the reserve must be enough so the responsibilities that are required of the Sanitary District be met. Was there any representative from Shawneeland at the Public Works Committee meeting? Yes During the meeting was there any discussion of budget cuts rather than raise the fee? No Joe went over the process that whatever money is not used from the budget on June 30 th goes back into the Reserve Fund. Frederick County is responsible for Shawneeland. The question was raised as to whether to cut personnel and cut back on services. Personnel makes up most of the budget. These conversations are hard to have because nobody wants to talk about people losing their jobs but at what point does it become unaffordable. Supervisor Graber spoke about sharing a lot of the same concerns about the fee increasing. He spoke to Joe Wilder about giving him a budget that increases by $75, $100, $120, $140, and $300. I believe that it is up to the community as to what they want for services. If you only want 4 people working for you instead of 6 people, then I would like to hear that. If you go from 6 people to 4 people, then that would cut $100,000 from the budget. I would like to hear from the residents about what they would like to see happen. Another thing I would like for you to consider is that if you look at Lake Holiday and some of the others, they have a fee if you sell your home. This fee goes toward the Capital projects for the community. This would be a way to build up the Capital expenses. Another thing to consider would be to become an HOA rather than be a Sanitary District. At the end of the day you must look at what level of service does the community want and what are you willing to pay for these services. Supervisor Graber wants to hear from the community what they want so he can go back to the Public Works Committee and have some discussion. Have we received funds from being declared a state of emergency in the past? We submit the paperwork to Chester Lauck in Fire and Rescue. Then if we receive funds it would be distributed accordingly. Why do we need to have $850 for Laundry & Housekeeping? It is for supplies to keep the office cleaned. Do we hire someone to do it? No, we clean the office, but you must buy products to do it. There is $850 in there but if we only use $50 of it then $800 goes back into the Reserve Fund. The problem is that Kevin overbudgets and now the county wants to base our expenses on money that we are not spending. Another citizen tried to explain that when preparing the budget, you must have contingencies because if you run out then sometimes doing a transfer is more of a pain than proposing it initially. Do we contact the power company to cut trees that are in threat of falling on a power line? This would be at their expense. We do not cut trees that are in threat of falling on a power line. The power company maintains their own lines. If we something, then we contact the power company. It was recommended to increase the unimproved lots as well. This would help in reaching the $10,000 mark for the county to do something regarding the delinquent lots. 95 New Business: Jimmy raised the idea of having subcommittees and doing activities like bingo or a car show. We could use activities to fund things. For example, it was brought up about having basketball hoops. I know in the past we had them, but they were vandalized. Maybe if we form a committee or some sort to have an activity to put towards it then it wouldn’t affect the budget. This is just an idea. Another idea was to use this meeting room for a senior bingo night. These are just ideas and I welcome any of your ideas as well. If you have any ideas in writing or send through email that we could fall back on. Open Forum: During the summer there are people with out of state tags in here fishing and swimming. They swim where you load/unload your boat. Isn’t this a safety concern and a liability? In the past we have called the Sheriff’s department. It was stated from a citizen that he does not want Shawneeland to become an HOA. He doesn’t want to be told what to do with his property. Follow-up regarding the Impact Fee for builders. There are a lot of builders in here and they cause ware and tare on the roads. Kevin said that his understanding is that we cannot impose an Impact Fee. Supervisor Graber along with other board members have gone to Richmond to ask for the Impact Fees to be reinstated. Unfortunately, as county representatives they cannot legally do that. Is there a way we could work with the Sheriff’s Department to have some type of tag that we put in the windshield to show that you live in Shawneeland? It would have to come from Supervisor Graber and Public Works as to what we can and cannot do. The person who has authority over the property has the say which is the Board of Supervisors. Without the line of authority there can be no enforcement. The signs are just deterrents. A citizen stated that she appreciates what the Sanitary District employees do in Shawneeland. She thanked the staff and said they do a good job and work hard. A lot of people don’t give them credit. She said you can’t make everybody happy. A citizen spoke on the possibility of becoming an HOA. It scares the living daylights out of her. You must hire your own people. There have been HOA’s in the past that have not done very well. It will cost extra money to hire people when we already have the staff that does a good job. Who will monitor the HOA? Look at Wild Acres/Mountain Falls Park. What do they get for their money? Their roads are crap. I would rather pay knowing where it is going and who is collecting it versus the HOA. Our property values will go to crap with an HOA. Our crew of 6 guys do an awful lot. I would hate to see it go to 4 or 5 because you have people complaining that we are not getting our roads plowed fast enough as it is. These guys do a fantastic job. By cutting the crew you are going to lose in the long run. Would we consider getting a lesser amount of fish since the lake is so low? We will look at the lake level when it is time for the fish distribution. The leak from the lake is at 100 gallons per minute. It was at 130 gallons. Kevin stated the drop could be from the lake being so low. The amount of the leak normally stays steady. Follow-up on live streaming the meetings. We must get someone film it, then Jimmy will send the link to Karen Vacchio and she will upload it to the Frederick County Youtube channel. Ruth will be giving up the newsletter in March. Is there some other means that you will get 96 information out to people? Jimmy responded with we have talked about putting the minutes on the county page. We will have to look further into it than what we already have established. It was asked that it be shared from Larry Clowser Webb that they will be having their Memorial Service at the Clowser House on Saturday, June 6, 2020 at 10am. They will be including the attendance of the French and Indian War Foundations Captain George Mercer’s Company in uniform. They will be performing drills and reenactments following the service. Everyone is invited to attend, and the cost is free. Jimmy thanked everyone for coming and encouraged the citizens to attend the Board of Supervisor meetings and to speak with Supervisor Graber regarding their concerns. Jimmy adjourned the meeting at 8:30pm. 97 98 TRANSPORTATION COMMITTEE REPORT to the BOARD OF SUPERVISORS Monday, February 24, 2020 8:30 a.m. 107 NORTH KENT STREET, WINCHESTER, VIRGINIA ATTENDEES: Committee Members Present: Judith McCann-Slaughter, Chairman (Voting), Gary Oates (Voting), James Racey (Voting) and Lewis Boyer (Liaison Stephens City).

LOCATION: The subject property is on the northern side of Route 50 West and west of Route 37. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY & STAFF CONCLUSION FOR THE 03/11/20 BOARD OF SUPERVISORS MEETING: This is a proposed minor proffer amendment for minor text revisions and revisions to the approved Generalized Development Plan (GDP) associated with Rezoning #02-03 which rezoned parcel 53-A-68 to the B2 (General Business) and MS (Medical Support) Districts with proffers. The site consists of 37.5424+/- acres zoned B2 (General Business) District and 51.8675+/- acres zoned MS (Medical Support) District. The approved GDP labeled individual land bays with specific uses; the Applicant proposes to remove the uses shown on the proffered GDP to allow for potential alternative development. The Applicant is also proposing to remove proffer 3 from the landscape design features which required a landscaped roundabout. This feature was removed, and the internal road system has already been constructed therefore this proffer is unnecessary. The impacts associated with the change of use are very limited; no additional impacts to Frederick County or the surrounding property owners are anticipated. Staff is supportive of this request for a minor proffer modification to the GDP and text. The Planning Commission did not identify any concerns with the request and recommended approval of the application at their December 18, 2019 meeting. The Board of Supervisors discussed this item on January 8, 2020. The Board postponed action on the item until the January 22, 2020 to allow the Applicant to provide clarification on whether the access th will be granted at no charge or is intended to be sold. Following the January 8 meeting, the Applicant removed all references on the GDP to access for the adjacent property to Botanical Boulevard. The ndth Board of Supervisors at their January 22 meeting postponed the application to February 26 and then th The proposed rezoning application remains unchanged postponed until the March 11 meeting. nd from the January 22 meeting . Following the public meeting, a decision rezoning this rezoning application by the Board of Supervisors would be appropriate. The Applicant should be prepared to adequately address all 234 concerns raised by the Board of Supervisors. Rezoning #06-19 WINCHESTER MEDICAL CENTER, INC.

March 4, 2020 Page 3 REVIEW EVALUATIONS: Virginia Dept. of Transportation: We have reviewed the above subject Rezoning Application dated August 5, 2019 for impacts to the local transportation system. We have no overall objection to the proposed rezoning with the following comment being addressed. We suggest that the conditions as they relate to the Western Campus-Limited Access Control Changes Route 37 (December 17, 2009) be brought into the amended proffer. As it remains important for all parties to be reminded of the gated-access limitation envisioned as part of the Commonwealth Transportation Board (CTB) approval. This could be accomplished by amending the Street Improvements section of the proffers as follows: The Applicant shall design and construct all roads on the subject property consistent with the Countys adopted Round Hill Land Use Plan for the area, and requirements as consistent with the Commonwealth Transportation Boards Right of Way and Limited Access Control Changes Route 37 and Campus Boulevard Interchange approval dated December 17, 2009, and according to uniform standards We also suggest including a copy of the Resolution of the CTB (attached) be included as an appendix to the proffer. Staff Note: Per VDOTs comment, the Applicant has referenced the Commonwealth Transportation Boards Right of Way and Limited Access Control Changes Route 37 and Campus Boulevard Interchange approval dated December 17, 2009 in the updated proffer statement. County of Frederick Attorney: Proffer appears acceptable. Planning & Zoning: 1)Site History The subject property was rezoned from the RA (Rural Areas) District to the B2 (General Business) District and the MS (Medical Support) District with the approval of Rezoning #02- 03. 2)Comprehensive Plan The 2035 Comprehensive Plan is the guide for the future growth of Frederick County. The 2035 Comprehensive Plan is an official public document that serves as the Community's guide for making decisions regarding development, preservation, public facilities and other key components of Community life. The primary goal of this plan is to protect and improve the living environment within Frederick County. It is in essence a composition of policies used to plan for the future physical development of Frederick County. The Area Plans, Appendix I of the 2035 Comprehensive Plan, are the primary implementation tool and will be instrumental to the future planning efforts of the County. 236 Rezoning #06-19 WINCHESTER MEDICAL CENTER, INC. March 4, 2020 Page 4 Land Use The site is located within the limits of the Route 37 West Area Land Use Plan of the 2035 Comprehensive Plan and depicts the subject property with commercial land use designation.

PLANNING COMMISSION SUMMARY AND ACTION FROM THE 12/18/19 MEETING: Staff stated that this is an application to revise the proffered Generalized Development Plan approved with Rezoning #02-03 for 37.5424+/- acres zoned B2 (General Business) District and 51.8675+/- acres zoned MS (Medical Support) District to the MS (Medical Support) District. Staff then provided an overview application and stated that this amendment only intends to revise the GDP to remove the land use specifications that restricted the site to certain uses. Commissioner Morrison requested clarification on the original proffer and the traffic circle off of Route 37 for the Medical Center and if it would be opened up for general traffic to improve Route 50. Staff stated that there were limitations placed on this access by the Commonwealth Transportation Board for this access break and the Medical Center is limited in the number of trips that can access the property via this interchange. The Applicant further clarified that this access will be controlled via a gate and that they were not changing any proffer other than the GDP. This item was a minor proffer amendment and therefore no public hearing was required. A motion was made, seconded and unanimously passed to recommend approval of Rezoning #06-19 for Winchester Medical Center. BOARD OF SUPERVISORS SUMMARY AND ACTION FROM THE 01/08/20 MEETING: Staff stated that this is an application to revise the proffered Generalized Development Plan approved with Rezoning #02-03 for 37.5424+/- acres zoned B2 (General Business) District and 51.8675+/- acres zoned MS (Medical Support) District to the MS (Medical Support) District. Staff then provided an overview application and stated that this amendment only intends to revise the GDP to remove the land use specifications that restricted the site to certain uses. The Board of Supervisors requested clarification on the changes to the internal streets and clarification that trips from any adjacent properties would not count toward the 14,000-trip cap on the subject property. Staff provided an overview that the original plan did not show the Route 37 access and the updated GDP shows that along with the removal of the roundabout. The Board also requested clarification on the access from Botanical Blvd. to the adjacent properties and whether it is planned to be sold to the property owners or granted at no cost. The Board of Supervisors ultimately postponed the item until the January 22, 2020 to allow the Applicant to provide clarification on whether the access will be granted at no charge or is intended to be sold. 237 Rezoning #06-19 WINCHESTER MEDICAL CENTER, INC.
