MEMORANDUM
Item 1 -2018-2023 Capital Improvements Plan (CIP)
The Comprehensive Plans and Programs Committee (CPPC) will be reviewing and discussing the
2018-2023 Capital Improvements Plan (CIP). Staff will provide a short summary of this year’s CIP
and the tables outlining each of the project requests. The role of the CPPC in this meeting will be to
review the project requests in the context of the 2035 Comprehensive Plan to ensure that the requests
are consistent with the adopted Plan. Staff has also compiled maps of the planned public facility
locations. Only those facilities for which there is a specific or generalized location are mapped. The
plan, if endorsed by the CPPC and ultimately adopted by the Board of Supervisors, would satisfy the
Code of Virginia requirement for the 15.2-2232 Review and become a component of the
Comprehensive Plan.
Staff has provided a link to copies of each of the Individual Project Description and Justification
Forms that have been submitted by the Frederick County Department of Public Works Parks, Parks
and Recreation, Fire and Rescue, Frederick County Public Schools, Winchester Regional Airport,
Handley Regional Library and the Frederick County Transportation Committee. A link to this
information is as follows: www.fcva.us/plans. Look for Capital Improvement Plan.

CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS PLAN
FREDERICK COUNTY
FY 2018-2023
INTRODUCTION
Section §15.2-2239 of the Code of Virginia assigns the responsibility for preparation of plans for capital outlays to the local Planning
Commissions. The Capital Improvements Plan (CIP) consists of a schedule for major capital expenditures for the County for the
ensuing five years.
The CIP is updated annually. Projects are removed from the plans as they are completed or as priorities change. The plan is
intended to assist the Board of Supervisors in preparation of the County budget. In addition to determining priorities for capital
expenditures, the County must also ensure that projects contained within the CIP conform to the Comprehensive Plan. Specifically,
the projects are reviewed with considerations regarding health, safety, and the general welfare of the public, and the policies of the
Comprehensive Plan. Once the CIP is adopted, it becomes a component of the 2035 Comprehensive Plan and provides a link
between the documents and potential proffered contributions made with future rezoning projects.
The inclusion of projects to the CIP is in no way an indication that Frederick County will be undertaking these projects. The CIP is
strictly advisory; it is intended for use as a capital facilities planning document, not for requesting funding allocations. Once
adopted, project priorities may change throughout the year based on changing circumstances. It is also possible that particu lar
projects may not be funded during the year that is indicated in the CIP. The status of any project becomes increasingly uncertain the
further in the future it is projected.

PROJECT RECOMMENDATIONS
Frederick County Public Schools
Frederick County Public Schools continue to commence and complete capital projects that have been priorities from previous years.
The top capital improvement priority for the Schools is the replacement of Robert E. Aylor Middle School. Construction of the New
High School is the second highest priority, followed by the Armel Elementary School addition and renovation. Other schools
included for renovation and addition projects include James Wood High School and Sherando High School.
Parks & Recreation
The top capital improvement priority for Parks and Recreation is the Abrams Creek Greenway Trail. This facility would provide
recreational opportunities for residents of this corridor along with the surrounding communities and was emphasized in the
Senseny/Eastern Frederick Urban Areas Plan completed during 2012. Other top priorities include parking at Clearbrook Park,
restroom construction at NW Sherando Park and the Indoor Aquatic Facility. Other requests include projects for Sherando Park,
pool upgrades at both regional parks and new community and distr ict parks.
Handley Regional Library
The Handley Regional Library recommends three projects. The library’s top priority is a new library branch in the Gainesboro area.
The two remaining projects request that funding be provided for new library branches throughout the County which include the
areas of Route 522 South and Senseny/Greenwood Road; both of which are anticipated to be located within the UDA (Urban
Development Area) in locations consistent with the approved area plans - the Senseny/Eastern Frederick Area Plan, and the
Southern Frederick Area Plan.
County Administration
The two requests from Public Works are for the relocation of the Albin Citizen Convenience Site and the expansion of the Gore
Citizen Convenience Site. The joint County Administration and School Administration Building and the future replacement of the
Joint Judicial Center remain in the CIP.

General Government Capital Expenditures is also included in the CIP – this item enhances the connection between the CIP and
proffered contributions made to mitigate the impacts of development projects. This item addresses those general government
capital expenditures that may fall below the established $100,000 departmental threshold. This is similar to the approach tak en for
Fire and Rescue Capital Equipment (see Fire and Rescue descriptions).
Fire and Rescue
The top project for the Fire and Rescue is the construction of the Regional Public Safety Training Center. The construction of Fire &
Rescue Station #22 in the vicinity of Route 277, with the ability to provide an annex facility for other County-related offices. Fire and
Rescue has also included a project which provides for the capital apparatus needs of this facility. Project four includes the
construction of Station #23, a new facility located in the vicinity of Crosspointe that would also provide the ability for an annex
facility for other County-related offices.
Fire and Rescue Volunteer Company Capital Equipment Requests
The revolving fund in the amount of $1,000,00 0 for the benefit of Fire and Rescue Services was established remains a component of
the CIP. This capital expenditure fund is for purchasing additional and replacement capital equipment fire and rescue vehicles and
equipment that may fall below the guidelines established by the Finance Committee. It was determined that the inclusion of such a
project would be beneficial in ensuring that this significant capital expense is identified in the County’s capital planning and budget
process. This project is primarily for the benefit of the individual Volunteer Fire and Rescue Companies. Individual Fire and Rescue
Companies previously identified their own capital requests which have been added to the CIP in a lump sum amount. Each of the
capital requests meet the $100,000 guideline established by the Finance Committee.
Greenwood Fire Station has included two company capital requests. These requests include the fire station living quarters
renovation and expansion and a request for a replacement ambulance.
Transportation Committee
The Transportation Committee continues to provide project requests for the CIP. Virginia State Code allows for transportatio n
projects to be included within a locality's CIP. Funding for transportation project requests will likely come from developers and
revenue sharing. Implementation of transportation projects does not take away funding for generalized road improvements.
4
The Transportation Committee has requested funding for 22 projects. The 22 requests include projects that entail Interstate 81 Exit
310 Improvements, widening of major roads; key extensions of roads that help provide better networks, and the addition of turn
lanes at current unsafe intersections. The inclusion of the Eastern Road Plan Improvements item once a gain emphasizes the
connection between the CIP and potential proffered contributions made with rezoning projects which are aimed at mitigating
potential transportation impacts identified in the Comprehensive Plan.
Winchester Regional Airport
Funding for airport projects is derived through a complex formula where the federal and state governments contribute a majority of
the funding, with Frederick County and the other jurisdictions providing the remaining funding. The construction of a new general
aviation terminal to support future airport operations and associated parking improvements continues to be number one in the CIP,
followed by the Taxiway “A” Relocation (design/construction). A number of other projects focus on land acquisition in support of
airport development to meet Federal Aviation requirements for general aviation facilities. The vast majority of the funding for these
improvements came from the FAA and VDA.

THE CIP TABLES - CONTENT DESCRIPTIONS
The Capital Improvements Plan tables, on the following four pages, contains a list of the capital improvement projects proposed for
the ensuing five years. A description of the information in this table is explained below.
Projects Ranked by Department - The priority rating assigned by each agency or department for their requested projects.
County Contribution - The estimated dollar value that will be contributed for each project. This value is listed by individual fiscal
years and by total contributions over the five-year period. The total contribution column, located to the right of the fiscal year
columns, does not include debt service projections.
Notes - Indicates the footnotes that apply to additional funding sources for particular projects.
Total Project Costs - The cost for each project, including the County allocations and other funding sources.
PROJECT FUNDING
The projects included in Table 1 have a total projected cost to the County of $441,569,869, this figure excludes Airport request and
transportation projects as these are primarily funded through other sources .
While the CIP is primarily used to cover the next five years, much of the project costs have been identified beyond the next five
years.
• School projects are funded through a combination of loans from the Virginia Public School Authority and the Virginia
Literary Fund.
• Funding for Parks and Recreation Department projects will come from the unreserved fund balance of the County. The
Parks and Recreation Commission actively seeks grants and private sources of funding for projects not funded by the
County.
• The inclusion of transportation projects to the CIP is in no way an indication tha t Frederick County will be undertaking
these projects. Funding projects will continue to come from a combination of state and federal funds, developer
contributions, and revenue sharing.
• Airport projects will be funded by contributions from the federal, st ate, and local governments. The local portion may
include contributions from Frederick, Clarke, Shenandoah, Warren Counties, and the City of Winchester.

APPENDIX
PROJECT DESCRIPTIONS

Frederick County Public Schools Project Priority List
PRIORITY 4 - Robert E. Aylor Middle School Replacement
Description: Because of the expense of renovations necessary to the existing Robert E. Aylor Middle School building, we propose
construction of a replacement school. The new middle school will serve students grades 6-8 and have a program capacity of 900
students. The school will be designed for collaborative education, with a variety of learning spaces to meet the needs of a variety of
learning styles and to impart skills necessary in today’s working world.
Capital Cost: $52,000,000
Justification: Robert E. Aylor Middle School is 48 years old, was constructed as a junior high in which the school was arranged by
department (middle school arrangement is now by grade), and 85% o f interior walls are load bearing. The age of the facility's
infrastructure, the school's outdated arrangement, and its expensive-to-move walls make replacement of the facility a fiscally sound
choice. 85% of HVAC systems, 82% of plumbing components, 73% of electrical components, 52% of finishes, and 50% of site
elements have reached their average useful life and should be replaced or refurbished. The roof is low compared to modern
buildings, making it expensive to install all of the infrastructure necessary between the roof and the drop ceiling.
Construction Schedule: 54 Months
PRIORITY 2 - New High School
Description: The new high school project will serve students grades 9-12, have a program capacity of 1,725 students, and will
address anticipated growth in high school student enrollment in the school division. The site is located at the end of Justes Drive
behind Admiral Byrd MS. This school is designed for collaborative education, with a variety of learning spaces to meet the ne eds of a
variety of learning styles and to impart skills necessary in today’s working world.
Capital Cost: $83,000,000
Justification: This project will address expected growth in high school student enrollment in the school division over the next
several years. We project that enrollment in the high schools by the fall of 2023 will be 5,063 students. High school program capacity
is currently 3,785 students. To relieve overcrowding in the high schools, we need to construct the new high school in Frederi ck
County to open within that time frame.
Construction Schedule: Construction will take 48 months
16
PRIORITY 3 - Armel Elementary School Addition and Renovation
Description: Armel ES opened in 1991 and has served continuously as a K-5 elementary school since that time. The school contains
70,281 square feet and has a program capacity of 590 students. As of October 31, 2016, the school has 606 students. Eight
classrooms will be added to Armel ES, to accommodate the additional growth at Lake Frederick. The existing facility will be updated
as needed and core areas partially renovated to serve the additional students.
Capital Cost: $9,800,000
Justification: Armel Elementary School is in good condition; however, growth in the attendance zone will need to be addressed
through the addition of classrooms to the facility. An attendance rezoning was completed three years ago as part of the
implementation of full-day kindergarten. Addressing the growth issue at Armel was studied as a part of this rezoning. Four areas
were identified to be rezoned to another school to offset the additional growth at Lake Frederick. None of the four options provided
a complete and satisfactory solution. One option would have put Armel outside of its own attendance zone. A second would have
split a neighborhood and sent some of the neighborhood to a school further away. A third would have simply relocated the growth
issue to another school. The fourth option was adopted, but only moved ~50 students, a temporary reprieve from growth pressur es.
Construction Schedule: 30 months
PRIORITY 4 - James Wood High School Renovations and Addition
Description: James Wood High School opened in 1980 and has served as a high school since that time. The school contains 234,095
square feet and has a program capacity of 1,200 student s. Currently, the building serves grades 9-12. This school will be renovated
to support collaborative education, with a variety of learning spaces to meet the needs of a variety of learning styles and to impart
skills necessary in today’s working world.
Capital Cost: $55,000,000
Justification: James Wood High School is 36 years old. Renovations, additions, and technological upgrades are needed to a number
of areas to ensure effective, economical, and efficient operation of the school for years to come. The building is in good condition;
however, several major areas need to be addressed in a renovation. Major areas to be included in this renovation project are
increased electrical service and distribution to support technology, technology cabling, hardware an d its installation, upgrade of
plumbing and mechanical systems, and modification of instructional areas to support modern instructional delivery.
Construction Schedule: 36 Months
17
PRIORITY 5 – Sherando High School Renovations and Addition
Description: Sherando High School opened in 1993. The facility contains 239,517 square feet and has a program capacity of 1,285
students serving grades 9-12. Several major areas need to be addressed in a renovation , including reorganization and addition of
classroom and storage space to better equip the building to support collaborative education . Because we want the facility to last
another 30 years, facility infrastructure will be renewed and updated, and finishes will be refreshed . Other areas to be addressed are
security, traffic safety, and gender equity in athletic facilities.
Capital Cost: $59,500,000
Justification: Sherando is 24 years old and will be at least 29 years old by the time we renovate it. Renovations are needed to
ensure the economical, efficient, and effective operation of the school for years to come. Modern instruction requires that a variety
of learning spaces be provided, including collaborative spaces of varying sizes and project labs (similar to maker spaces).
Transportation safety concerns exist on and around the school site at Sherando during arrival and dismissal. Sherando does not have
a softball field on site, instead using a softball field in Sherando Park. This represents an equity issue between boys and g irls sports
and is contrary to FCPS’ policy of equity between boys and girls sports.
Construction Schedule: 48 Months
Long Range Projects:
• Joint Administrative Offices ($14,000,000)
• Apple Pie Ridge Elementary School Phase 2 Renovation
• Bass-Hoover Elementary School Phase 2 Renovation
• Dowell J. Howard Center Replacement
• Indian Hollow Elementary School Renovation and Addition
• Relocation of Facilities Services
• 5th Middle School
• 13th Elementary School

Parks & Recreation Department Project Priority List
PRIORITY 1 – Abrams Creek Trail
Description: 10' wide, asphalt, shared-use trail along Abrams Creek from Senseny Road to Channing Drive. It is estimated the trail
will have six bridge stream crossings, and will be approximately 3 miles in length. As outlined below, the project is envisi oned in
three phases of approximately 1 mile each. Each phase will have logical beginning and ending points and be usable trail sect ions in
themselves. Phase 1 from Senseny Road to Woodstock Lane. Phase 2 from Woodstock Lane to Woody's Place, and Phase 3 from
Woody's Place to Channing Drive.
Capital Cost: $3,500,000
Justification: This facility would provide recreational opportunities for residents and provide an alternate means of entering and
exiting the City of Winchester from Eastern Frederick County. This project is intended to meet the needs of the community as
identified in the 2017 Frederick County Parks and Recreation Community Survey, and the 2012 Virginia Outdoors Plan Survey.
Construction Schedule: Completion in FY 19-20.
PRIORITY 2 – Clearbrook Park Parking
Description: This project expands the existing pool parking lot by approximately 141 spaces. Parking lot to be asphalt paved.
Capital Cost: $257,000
Justification: This parking expansion is required due to the anticipated loss of parking on the south side of the park. The south
parking is on leased land, and FCPRD has been notified that the lease expiration is imminent. Parking is required to meet th e needs
of park amenity users during peak pool use times. Currently all pool parking is used during peak pool time.
Construction Schedule: Completion in FY 18-19.
PRIORITY 3 – Sherando Park NW Restroom
Description: This restroom installation includes a restroom building and required utilities. The restroom will need to serve the
population utilizing the planned amenities at the NW area of Sherando Park. This includes planned items including; shared -use trail,
shelter, outdoor gym, mountain bike trails, and bicycle skills park.
Capital Cost: $275,000
19
Justification: This project is needed to serve users of the NW amenities. The nearest restroom facility to this location is
approximately 1/2 mile away.
Construction Schedule: Completion in FY 18-19.
PRIORITY 4 - Indoor Swimming Pool
Description: The Parks and Recreation Commission has engaged in conversation with FCPS to site the facility at the 4th High School
campus. Land on the site has been set aside for this purpose. The approximately 35,000 sq.ft. building will likely house a 10 lane
competitive pool, 6 lane warm water teaching pool, meeting rooms, shower and changing rooms, and facilities support areas. The
above facility would meet the swimming needs of the community, including HS level swim teams .
Capital Cost: $11,300,000
Justification: There are no public indoor public pools in Frederick County. By constructing the indoor pool, it would permit the
department to meet competition needs, instructional needs, citizen programming provide a nucleus to attract new businesses to the
community. This project is intended to meet the needs of the community as identified in the 201 7 Frederick County Parks and
Recreation Community Survey. This facility would be available to all area residents. The construction of this project will provide a
facility to offer competitive scholastic programs and year-round recreational programming for the residents of Frederick County.
Construction Schedule: Completion in FY 19-20
PRIORITY 5 - Water Slide and Spray Ground
Description: Upgrade the outdoor swimming pools at both Clearbrook and Sherando Parks. Upgrade would involve the removal of
the diving boards and the installation of one 50' water slide and one 75' water slide at each pool. The upgrade would also i nclude
the addition of a spray ground with 10-12 features at each pool.
Capital Cost: $624,000
Justification: To provide recreational opportunities for the Clearbrook Park and Sherando Park service area. Frederick County Parks
and Recreation Department operates two outdoor swimming pools at the regional parks. These facilities are o ver 20 years old and
were constructed with two diving boards as the main feature for each pool. Swimming pool attendance has trended decline in
recent years and users are requesting different water features. The addition of two water slides and a spray g round to each pool
facility will appeal to families and younger children, increasing pool attendance by an estimated 30%. With the increase in
attendance and potentially fees to comparable facilities, the County could realize an additional $24,000 in reve nue annually.
Clearbrook and Sherando Parks, currently owned by Frederick County, offer the best site and location for the development of t his
20
facility. With the upgrade to the existing swimming pool facilities, the County would not have to incur costs f or property acquisition
or infrastructure development and increase the recreational opportunities at the regional parks.
Construction Schedule: Completion in FY 18-19
PRIORITY 6 - Sherando Park North - Softball Complex
Description: This project completes the development vision for the SE area of Sherando Park located north of Rt 277. This vision is
expressed in the 2016 North Sherando Park Master Plan update. Included are softball fields to complete the complex, a shared use
trail segment, roadway and parking.
Capital Cost: $1,649,000
Justification: This facility would provide recreational opportunities for the entire Frederick County area. In addition to its use as a
recreational facility, it will be used by the Frederick County School System. Presently, there are ten softball/baseball fields within the
County’s regional park system. Eight of ten existing fields must serve a dual purpose of facilitating youth baseball as well as youth
and adult softball programs. With the increased usage of these fields, it has become more difficult to facilitate these programs. This
project is needed in order for the Parks and Recreation Department to accommodate the existing demand of youth baseball and
adult softball programs. This project is intended to meet the needs of the community as identified in the 2012 Frederick County
Parks and Recreation Community Survey.
Sherando Park, currently owned by Frederick County, represents the very best site for softball field development. The fact t hat the
County will not have to acquire property for this facility means that the most costly aspect of this development has already been
completed. Sherando Park also provides a location that is situated in the fastest growing area of the County and is adjacent to
Sherando High School. Joint use of facilities between the park and school system has facilitated school activities and recreation
programs.
Construction Schedule: Completion in FY 19-20
PRIORITY 7 - Snowden Bridge Park Development
Description: Snowden Bridge Park, situated on land proffered by the Snowden Bridge development utilizes park and school land for
the provision of an active recreation park. The above park is to include athletic fields suitable for league play. Lighting, restroom
and parking are part of the park concept.
Capital Cost: $4,550,000
21
Justification: The overall park design is informed by the Snowden Bridge (formerly Stephenson Village) rezoning proffer of 2003.
The proffer indicates the provided land to be used for baseball and/or soccer field development in anticipation of the population
increase generated by the development.
Construction Schedule: Completion in FY 19-20
PRIORITY 8 - Sherando Ballfields Lighting Replacement
Description: Upgrade the ballfield lighting at Sherando Parks Baseball facilities. The upgrade would involve the removal of the
30/20 FC (footcandle) level fixtures, lamps, and wood poles and replace with 50/30 FC (footcandle) level fixtures, lamps and steel
poles on (4) four fields at Sherando Park. This standard is required by Little League International on all little league fields.
Capital Cost: $720,000
Justification: The Parks and Recreation Commission is recommending the ballfield light system be upgraded to achieve the
recommended 50/30 footcandle level lighting on the playing surface. This will facilitate the provision of recreational opportunities
at Sherando Park for the service areas which include all Frederick County residents. The field light fixtures are over twent y-five years
old and are affixed to poles.
Construction Schedule: Completion in FY 19-20
PRIORITY 9 - Sherando Park North – Area 3 Development
Description: This project completes the development vision for the SW area of Sherando Park located north of Rt 277. This vision is
expressed in the 2016 North Sherando Park Master Plan update. Included are rectangular play fields, a shared use trail segment,
roadway and parking, playground, restroom, and maintenance building.
Capital Cost: $2,150,000
Justification: This facility would provide recreational opportunities for the entire Frederick County area. In addition to its use as a
recreational facility, it will be used by the Frederick County School System. With the development of N Sherando Softball Complex
(CIP item #6) two rectangular play fields will be displaced. The development of area 3 not only addresses this direct result, but also
addresses additional identified needs of the community.
Construction Schedule: Completion in FY 19-20
22
PRIORITY 10 - Community Center
Description: The Field House project would be approximately 44,000 square feet and include an indoor area large enough to
accommodate a 1/16 mile track and a minimum of two basketball courts. This court area would also be designed for utilization by
indoor soccer, baseball, softball, wrestling, volleyball, tennis and badminton with the installation of in-floor sleeves and drop
curtains or partitions. This area could also be used for special events such as dances, proms, music festivals, garden and h ome,
outdoor, craft, antique, quilt, or boat shows, thus providing a flexible facility for a multitude of activities to take place at one time.
The facility would also house a fitness center, multi-purpose rooms, office, storage, and locker rooms.
Capital Cost: $ 9,067,000
Justification: Since its inception, the Parks and Recreation Department has relied significantly on the use of the County public
schools to house recreation programs. This arrangement was adequate when the department first started out, however the
department currently offers over 250 sections of programs, creating a situation where the department is limited in its ability to meet
the programming and facility needs of the County residents. A Community Center facility will facilitate the department to meet
citizen programming demands and provide the area with a facility to attract new businesses to the community. This facility w ould
be available to all area residents and is intended to meet the needs of the community as identified in the 201 7 Frederick County
Parks and Recreation Community Survey. The Department and the community has benefited from the co-location of recreation and
school facilities; however community size warrants a separate facility dedicated to recreation use. The construction of t his project
will provide a facility the Department will be able to offer year-round recreational programming to the residents of Frederick County.
This facility could be built in conjunction with or as an attachment to the Indoor Aquatic Facility, or in t he Stonewall District if full
size gymnasiums are no longer included with new elementary schools.
Construction Schedule: Completion in FY 21-22
PRIORITY 11 - Community Park

Capital Cost: $2,090,000
Justification: Potential acreage for parkland would be located close to population density, east of Winchester, Redbud / Shawnee
district area. The location of this project would provide developed parkland to create more accessible recreational facilities and
opportunities to the residents Frederick County.
Construction Schedule: Completion in FY 21-22
PRIORITY 12 – Neighborhood Parks
Description: The Neighborhood project includes the acquisition of six sites of approximately ten acres and the subsequent
development of these sites. Developed amenities will ultimately be determined by the specific site, however typical developm ent
would include:
Acquisition of Parkland (10 acres per site)
• Paved Path
• Playground
• Shelter
• Hard Surface Courts
• Open Play Fields
• Parking
Capital Cost: $4,986,000
Justification: To reduce the gap between the amount of existing parkland and the amount of parkland needed to meet the
minimum standard for our service area, as recommended by the 2013 Virginia Outdoors Plan. This project is intended to meet the
needs of the community as identified in the 2017 Frederick County Parks and Recreation Community Survey. Potential acreage f or
parkland would be located in the Urban Development Area or Rural Community Centers. The location of this project would provide
parkland developed to create more accessible recreational facilities and opportunities to the residents of Frederick County.
Construction Schedule: Completion in FY 21-22
24
PRIORITY 13 – District Parks

meet the needs of the community as identified in the 2017 Frederick County Parks and Recreation Community Survey.
Construction Schedule: Long range planning objective – beyond FY23
PRIORITY 18 – Indoor Ice Rink
Description: The Ice Rink project would be approximately 40,000 square feet and include an indoor area large enough to
accommodate a single 200’ x 85’ ice rink, locker rooms, party/meeting rooms, and concession area and would need approximately
10 acres to construct. This facility should be located on property owned or proff ered to the County. The above ice rink may be
collocated with other compatible uses should opportunities arise, reducing the acreage demand.
Capital Cost: $6,180,000
Justification: There are no public indoor ice rinks in Frederick County and County residents currently must travel over one hour to
use an indoor ice facility. By constructing the indoor ice rink, it would permit the department to meet competition needs,
26
instructional needs, citizen programming and leisure demands as well as provide a nucle us to attract new businesses to the
community. This facility would be available to all area residents. The construction of this project will provide a facility to offer year-
round recreational programming for the residents of Frederick County. This proj ect is intended to meet the needs of the community
as identified in the 2017 Frederick County Parks and Recreation Community Survey. The Indoor Ice Rink facility should be loc ated in
an area convenient to the major transportation corridors of the County. However, as an alternative, one of the two county regional
parks could be used to house the facility, since these locations are already identified as centers for recreation programs an d
activities.
Construction Schedule: Long range planning objective – beyond FY23
PRIORITY 19 - Indoor Ice Rink
Description: The Ice Rink project would be approximately 40,000 square feet and include an indoor area large enough to
accommodate a single 200’ x 85’ ice rink, locker rooms, party/meeting rooms, and concession a rea and would need approximately
10 acres to construct. This facility should be located on property owned or proffered to the County. The ice rink may be co -located
with other compatible uses should opportunities arise, reducing the acreage demand.

Handley Regional Library Project Priority List
PRIORITY 1 - Frederick County Library Branch - Gainesboro
Description: Construction of a 4,000 to 5,000 sq.ft. branch library, either as a standalone facility or co-located with a planned
Frederick County facility (the new middle school). Initial parking should be for at least 50 vehicles. The proposed locatio n would be
on school grounds on Route 522 in the Gainesboro District, but this could change depending on patterns of library use and on
whether donated land could be located or if co-located with a Frederick County project already in the early planning stage. This
projected branch would fit per discussions with FCPS on existing property and a preliminary study was done a few years ago.
Capital Cost: $1,749,034
Justification: This branch would serve citizens living in this growing area. In 2016-2017 Frederick County citizens of all ages
checked out 474,664 items. 37,426 Frederick County residents have library cards and averaged 63.68% of all materials checke d out
of the regional system. 3,018 Frederick County residents, adults and children, registered for library cards for the firs t time in 2016-
2017. Of Frederick County residents over five years of age (when you can get a library card), approximately 47% of the tota l have
library cards. This population group is not close to a library in the regional system. The Library will pr ovide materials and

Description: Construction of a 10,000 sq.ft. branch library. Initial parking should be for a minimum of 35 vehicles. The proposed
location is yet to be determined and is dependent on future development. The first step of the project would be the acquisition of
the land of 3 to 4 acre or collocated with the new High School projected to be built in the same area.
Capital Cost: $3,043,235
Justification: This branch would serve citizens living in this growing area. In 2016-2017 Frederick County citizens of all ages
checked out 474,664 items. 37,426 Frederick County residents have library cards and averaged 63.68% of all materials checke d out
of the regional system. 3,018 Frederick County residents, adults and children, registered for library cards for the first time in 2016 -
2017. Of Frederick County residents over five years of age (when you can get a library card), approximately 47% of the tota l have
28
library cards. This population group is not close to a library in the regional system. This area also lacks a community center that a
library with meeting room could help fill this need. The Library will provide materials and programming for patrons from tod dlers to
senior citizens. It will provide recreational and educational materials. It will be a prime source for homework help since it will be
open nights and on weekends when school libraries are closed. The library will supply computer access via Wi -Fi and via

County Administration Project Priority List
PRIORITY 1 - Albin Citizens Convenience Site
Description: The relocation of the Albin citizens’ convenience site to property located within the Sunnyside/Albin community is
projected for FY 19/20. A fenced two-acre site is proposed in close proximity to the existing site. Property has not been secured for
relocation. The project will require several months to complete including fencing, earthwork, retaining walls, electric, equi pment,
lighting, paving and landscaping.
Capital Cost: $1,359,000
Justification: During August of 2017, 17,006 vehicles visited the Albin facility, making it the single most utilized solid waste facility
outside of the landfill. This represents a five percent increase in usage over 2016. Each year, traffic counts continue to ri se as the site
serves a geographic area extending from Sunnyside to Cedar Creek Grade westward to Gainesboro. It is easily accessible from Route
37 and North Frederick Pike.
The total number of vehicles using the facility, an average of 654 per day. On weekends, this number can approach almost 900
vehicles. As trash disposal and the resulting traffic continue to increase, the present infrastructure will be unable to safe ly serve the
public. During holidays, the site requires two attendants in order to efficiently move traffic . However, lines still back out onto Indian
Hollow Road during holidays and some weekends, creating a hazard noted several times by the Sheriff’s Office.
For residents living between Cedar Creek Grade and Apple Pie Ridge Road, curbside pickup is costly, prompting heavy utilization of
the convenience site which attracts a mix of users from the suburbs and rural community. A number of users are those from the
more western end disposing of their trash when traveling into Winchester. Avid recyclers from Westm inster-Canterbury,
Shenandoah University, Shenandoah’s Pharmacy School and SU students living in nearby townhomes also frequent the facility.
Construction Schedule: Completion in FY 19-20
PRIORITY 2 - Gore Citizens Convenience Site
Description: The project will expand refuse capacity in the Gore community by installing a surplus trash compactor. Installation of
a compactor at Gore will drive down collection costs at the site where trash is now collected in 10 8 -yard boxes. In order to
accomplish this, and account for improved traffic flow and the construction of compactor and recycling staging areas, the sit e will be
expanded onto an adjoining parcel already owned by the County.
30
Capital Cost: $645,000
Justification: A total of 3,056 vehicles utilized the facility during the month of August 2017. On a typical Saturday, usage peaks at
151 vehicles.
The project will pay for itself in lower refuse collection costs through compaction of solid waste before transport. Also, wi th a
compactor in place, refuse will be contained in an enclosed receiver can, reducing blowing litter and odor and vectors, all of which
can be a challenge when using open collection cans.
The project will also provide much-needed capacity during heavy flow times such as weekends and holidays. All 10 containers now
fill to capacity during Saturdays and Sundays. Numerous times, the site has closed early on Sundays when capacity is reached. A 40-
yard roll-off container is used during holidays to contain excess trash and pulled multiple times, another additional expense. An
upgraded site will meet the current and future solid waste needs of the Gore community.
Construction Schedule: Completion in FY 20-21

Description: The Winchester Regional Airport proposes construction of a new general aviation terminal building. The new facility
will be constructed in a new location slightly south of the existing terminal building.
Capital Cost: $5,522,400
Justification: Since its opening in the early 1990s, the general aviation terminal building for the Winchester Regional Airport has
had only limited interior work completed. Interior repairs are necessary due to extensive usage and some damage from water
leaking from the roof prior to its replacement in the Spring of 2006 by necessity. The heating and cooling systems are approa ching
25 years in age and are nearing the end of their useful life. The exterior of the terminal building is made from drivet that has failed in
many areas and is generally in fair to poor condition and is costly to repair or maintain. In addition, the windows are not e nergy
efficient and several of the window seals have failed. In 2008, a preliminary study was completed to examine needs and costs to
renovate the existing terminal building. After review of the study, the WRAA determined it would be more economical to build a

PRIORITY 11 – North Side Internal Access Road
Description: This project proposes to construct a two lane service road around the end of Runway 14. The road, will be
approximately ½ to ¾ miles in length so that vehicles stay clear of navigational aid critical areas. It’s proposed that the road will be
two lanes.
Capital Cost: $700,000
Justification: The approved airport layout plan shows new development occurring on the north side of the runway. By having
aircraft ground operations and storage on both sides of the airfield (north and south), ground vehicle traffic requiring acce ss to both
sides of the airfield will be generated. The traffic will include fueling truck operations and personnel activities for gener al
maintenance. The FAA encourages the construction of service roads around aircraft activity areas, especially the runways, to
prevent unauthorized ground vehicle access to aircraft movement areas and to promote safer operating environment. The service
road, located on the west side of the airport (Runway 14 end) will accomplish these goas.
Construction Schedule: Completion in FY 22-23
