Dear Mayor Harris and Members of City Council:
Subject:
Use of Undesignated Fund
Balance (Capital Maintenance
and Equipment Replacement
Program - CMERP)
Background:
City Council was briefed on the unaudited FY 2006-07 financial performance and the
undesignated fund balance on August 20, 2007. The year end undesignated General
Fund balance is used for our Capital Maintenance and Equipment Replacement
Program (CMERP) and totals $1,476,937. In addition, unobligated prior year CMERP
funding in the amount of $283,939 is available for transfer to other projects. This
funding was appropriated for the Downtown Sealed Compactor Project, Downtown
Historic Building Plaques, ADA Improvements for Preston Park, and E-911 Console
Furniture. These projects are not prepared to proceed at this time and we are
recommending that the funds be reallocated with the expectation that funding will
again be recommended for appropriation when the projects are prepared to move
forward.
Retained earnings in the amount of $693,000 from the Department of Technology will
supplement $762,601 in the Technology Fund operating budget to address
prioritized technology projects.
Honorable Mayor Harris and Members of City Council
September 17, 2007
Page 2
Funding in the amount of $31,000 from Fleet Management Retained Earnings
will be utilized for tools and equipment to assist with the maintenance of
vehicular equipment.
The total of all funding sources outlined above is $2,484,876. Requests for
CMERP funding totaled approximately $10.1 million. These requests were
prioritized by the assignment of a high, medium or low priority designation.
The requests designated as high priority totaled approximately $4.3 million.
City Code stipulates that $250,000 in undesignated General Fund balance shall
be reserved annually for self-insured liabilities of the City. The maximum
balance of the reserve is three percent of the total General Fund appropriations
for the concluded fiscal year. As such, atJune 30, 2007, $250,000 was reserved
in the General Fund for self-insured liabilities. This amount shall be transferred
to the Risk Management Fund where the City accounts for all of its self-insured
liabilities.
Considerations:
On September 7, 2007, City Council was sent a list of the items tentatively
recommended for funding. A list of the final funding recommendations is attached
(Attachment 1) and addresses the following categories:
. Contributions/Commitments
. Capital Improvements
. Technology
. Fleet Management
. Equipment
. Carryover Items
Total
$831,870
836,066
693,000
31,000
55,000
37.940
$2,484,876
The funding recommendation includes an allocation of $500,000 to match
$2,000,000 in School funds to be appropriated for the purchase of textbooks. The
School Board has requested an adjustment to the School Fund budget for the
$500,000 in match funding.
On September 10,2007, advertisement was properly made in The Roanoke Times for
the appropriation of $693,000 recommended in the Department of Technology Fund.
A public hearing is required for this appropriation since the budget adjustments
proposed exceed one percent of the adopted budget.
Honorable Mayor Harris and Members of City Council
September 17, 2007
Page 3
Recommended Action:
Following a public hearing, adopt the attached budget ordinance appropriating
funding to the proper accounts as outlined in Attachment 1 and appropriate
$250,000 reserved in the General Fund for self-insured liabilities to be transferred to
the Risk Management Fund. Establish a revenue estimate of the same amount in the
Risk Management Fund representing this transfer.
Reallocate unobligated prior year CMERP funding of $283,939 from the Downtown
Sealed Compactor Project, Downtown Historic Building Plaques, ADA Improvements
for Preston Park, E-911 Console Furniture to support the projects on Attachment 1.
Adopt the attached budget ordinance adjusting the School Fund budget in the amount
of $500,000 for the match funding provided by the City for the purchase of
textbooks.

Dear Mayor Harris and Members of City Council:
Subject: DMV Grant
Background:
The Virginia Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) is the administering
agency for pass through funds provided by the United States Department
of Transportation for highway safety projects in Virginia. DMV offers
these funds to successful applicants for activities which improve highway
safety in Virginia.
On July 23, 2007, DMV awarded the police department $30,000 to be
used for overtime and related FICA expenditures, equipment and training.
The funding will assist the department in its efforts to conduct selective
enforcement activities which target Driving Under the Influence (DUI),
Aggressive motor vehicle operators and Motor Vehicle Occupant
Protection. The grant period is from October 1, 2007 through
September 30, 2008. A local match is not required.
There is a statistical correlation between levels of motor vehicle law
enforcement and traffic accidents in the City of Roanoke. Increased
patrols, funded by these grants, are an effective strategy to reduce
accidents and prevent injuries. These programs will allow officers to

Dear Mayor Harris and Members of City Council:
Subject: Downtown Parking System Rate
Increases
Background:
On May 14, 2007, City Council adopted a resolution providing for an
amendment of fees charged at City of Roanoke-owned and/or controlled
parking facilities. On JUne 4, 2007, City Council delayed implementation of
the proposed parking rate revisions to allow staff an opportunity to continue
to discuss the issue with downtown stakeholders. Two public meetings were
held on Tuesday, July 31, 2007, at the Science Museum of Western Virginia,
to provide information to the public regarding the proposed FY 2008 parking
rate revisions and to facilitate discussions of alternative suggestions for
revenue generation in lieu of the proposed rates. Following these meetings,
city staff evaluated each comment or suggestion for potential inclusion in the
recommended rate structure.
Considerations:
CI1A cr:I:..
Council was briefed on September 4, 2007 with respect to the recommended
changes to the previously adopted rate increases. The recommendations
include the following:

Remarks of Tom McKeon, Chairman of the Board, Downtown Roanoke, Inc.
To Roanoke City Council, September 17,2007
Mr. Mayor and Members of Council. I am Tom McKeon, Chairman of the Board
of Downtown Roanoke, Inc. and I thank you for this opportunity to speak with you
today regarding parking fee increases. DR! views the amendment you will vote on
today as a compromise from our original position of no changes at this time. We
appreciate your delay of action on this item and the subsequent public information
sharing sessions that were conducted by the City staff on this issue. I think we all
learned a good deal from those presentations and ensuing discussions. The
Downtown is experiencing some real success right now, but we also have too
many vacant buildings and storefronts to claim that our success is not fragile.
Therefore we are working hard every day to build on our successes and push the
City over the tipping point to greatness. In support of further successes DR! would
rather have no change in parking fees right now, but we can accept the compromise
that is before you today.
As we go forward I want to thank City staff for providing DR! with additional
information on City parking fund financing. All involved in our inquiry were
forthcoming and responsive to questions. We now have a basis for further
discussion of parking fees as they relate to the forthcoming repairs and
improvements to the market garage, ongoing incentives provided to large
downtown employers, downtown residents, and students at the Roanoke Higher
Education Center, and to economic development in the City. The City staff has
invited input from DR! as discussions regarding next year's City budget begin this
fall. We look forward to participating in those discussions, and we thank you, our
elected representatives, the City Manager and City staff for this opportunity for
citizen and stakeholder input. You can count on DR! to provide that input in the
spirit of doing what's best to create a vibrant, successful downtown. A strong
downtown core will radiate success through the rest of the City and throughout the
region. We are pleased to be working with you to strengthen the core.
Thank you.

Dear Mayor Harris and Members of City Council:
Subject: Performance Agreement for an
Economic Development Grants:
Roanoke Hotel Group, LLC
The City and Roanoke Hotel Group, LLC (RHG), the developer of property
located on Reserve Avenue, have negotiated an annual Economic Development
Grant Performance Agreement. The Economic Development Grant will be
funded by the City, but issued and administered through the Economic
Development Authority of the City of Roanoke, Virginia (EDA). Such grant
would assist in the provision of structured ground floor parking and
infrastructure necessary for building in the floodplain to make the site
developable for a Cambria Suites hotel. The project will provide an economic
development benefit through additional tax revenues, jobs, and services to the
citizens of the City and the Roanoke Valley.
Consideration:
The proposed Agreement outlines the obligations of RHG to qualify for and
receive the grant. A copy of the proposed Agreement is attached to this letter.
Some of the main provisions provide RHG must complete the hotel
construction, obtain a permanent Certificate of Occupancy, and open the facility
to the public within 24 months after the date of the Agreement. RHG will spend
or cause to be spent at least $14.4 million on the development of the Project,
Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council
September 17, 2007
Page 2
including at least $1 million on ground floor structured parking and related
infrastructure improvements as detailed in the Agreement.
After the hotel opens, RHG can make up to six (6) annual grant requests to the
EDA. The tax revenues for real estate taxes and transient occupancy taxes, as
listed in the Agreement, the City actually receives from the Property or the hotel
must exceed $275,000 for the preceding grant year. If so, then RHG may make
a grant request to the EDA for an amount equal to up to 50% of the amount of
such revenue the City actually received during the preceding grant year, subject
to certain other provisions in the Agreement. However, the maximum amount
of all grant funds RHG may receive shall not exceed $1 million.
The Agreement requires RHG to provide the City and the EDA appropriate
supporting documentation for each grant request. Funding for each annual
grant request will be subject to appropriation by the City Council to the EDA.
No funding is anticipated to be needed during the current 2007-2008 fiscal
year.
For Council's information, City staff have been advised that counsel for the
EDA, Glenn, Feldman, Darby & Goodlatte, will also represent RHG in this matter
through different attorneys with the firm.
Recommended Action:
Approve the terms of the Performance Agreement among the City, RHG, and the
EDA, as set forth in the attachment to this letter, and determine that such grant
will promote economic development within the City.
Authorize the City Manager to execute a Performance Agreement among the
City, RHG, and the EDA, substantially similar to the one attached to this letter,
and to execute such other documents and take such further action as may be
necessary to implement and administer, including amendments thereto, such
Performance Agreement, with the form of such Agreement and/or amendments
to be approved by the City Attorney.

concerning this matter.
NOW, THEREFORE, the parties, in consideration of the promIses and obligations
contained herein, mutually agree as follows:
C:\DOCUM E-I \cmjb I \LOCALS-I \Temp\notesFFF692\-1206055.doc
I
SECTION 1. EDA ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT GRANT.
Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the EDA will make up to six (6) annual
Economic Development Grants (each a "Grant"), the total of which shall not exceed
$1,000,000.00, to RHG in order to assist with the development of the structured ground
floor parking and other infrastructure related to building in the floodplain for the Project
for the purposes of promoting economic development in the City and the Roanoke
Valley. The EDNs obligations hereunder are not general obligations of the EDA, but are
special obligations of the EDA limited to those funds which are provided by the City and
received by the EDA under the terms set forth herein.
SECTION 2. OBLIGATIONS OF RHG.
RHG agrees and promises that in order to qualify to receive and to continue to receive the
Grant for each grant year (as defined in this Agreement), RHG shall do or provide each
of the following, all of which are material to this Agreement:
A. Provide to the EDA and the City, prior to the execution of this Agreement,
and at any time after its execution, sufficient documentation, as determined by
the EDA and the City, establishing that RHG has the right, authority, and
financial ability to develop the Property as contemplated by this Agreement
and to operate a Cambria Suites hotel on such Property.
B. Within 24 months after the date of this Agreement, complete the construction
of a Cambria Suites hotel with at least 127 rooms and structured ground floor
parking on the Property on Reserve A venue, together with appropriate
landscaping, all as substantially shown in Exhibit B. Furthermore, within
such 24 month time period, RHG shall obtain a permanent certificate of
occupancy for the Facility and the Facility will be open to the public for
business.
C. Within 24 months after the date of this Agreement, RHG will have spent or
caused to have been spent at least $14.4 million on the development of the
Facility. The $14.4 million shall include the cost of items shown on Exhibit D
attached hereto and made a part hereof, but shall exclude the cost of the
Property. Either the EDA or the City may request, in writing, that RHG
provide documentation of the expenditure of the $14.4 million and, if so,
RHG will provide such documentation within 30 days of any such written
request.
D. As part of the $14.4 million expenditure, the amount of at least $1,000,000.00
must be spent or caused to have been spent by RHG for the items set forth in
Exhibit C. RHG shall provide verification of the expenditures for such items,
and their related costs, referenced in Exhibit C, by submitting invoices,
statements showing the cost of items, a spreadsheet showing such expenses,
and/or other documents and information reasonably acceptable to the EDA
and the City to document the expenditures incurred and as listed in Exhibit C,
C:\DOCUME-] \cmjb I \LOCALS-l \Temp\notcsFFF692\-] 206055.doc
2
which information shall be provided at 6 month intervals from the date of this
Agreement- through the completion of construction of the Facility.
E. Verification of the expenditures submitted by RHG shall be sufficient to allow
the EDA and the City to determine if RHG has met the expenditure
requirements of Exhibit C and, if requested, Exhibit D. If the information
submitted by RHG for verification of the expenditures of either Exhibit C or
D is not reasonably sufficient to evidence such expenditure, either the EDA
or the City may request further documentation, which will be provided by
RHG within 30 days of receipt of the request for further documentation. All
of the documents or information produced by RHG to verify such costs or
expenditures shall be provided to the City and the EDA without any cost or
charge to either the City or the EDA.
F. Although specific items listed in Exhibits C and D will show an estimated
cost, as long as the total verified expenditures for the items set forth in Exhibit
D amount to $14.4 million or more, and the total verified expenditures for the
items set forth in Exhibit C amount to $1,000,000.00 or more, the required
expenditures by RHG for each respective Exhibit will have been met.
G. RHG will file all appropriate and applicable real estate tax and other tax forms
or notices with the City, ensure it has received assessments from the City for
such taxes, and RHG shall pay all such taxes to the City and not claim any
exemptions from real estate taxes or other taxes for any periods of time for
which Grant funds are requested. RHG shall also ensure that the owner of the
Property and any entity that may operate and/or manage the Facility, if
different than RHG, also complies with all the obligations of this Section 2
(G) and any other applicable provisions of this Agreement.
SECTION 3. ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT GRANT.
Subject to the conditions as set forth in this Agreement, the EDA will provide certain
Grant funds, limited to those funds which are received by the EDA from the City, as set
forth below, to RHG, in order to assist with the development of the structured ground
floor parking and associated infrastructure for the Project as follows:
A. At the option of RHG, it may request a yearly Grant for (i) the grant year
starting as of July I, prior to the date the Cambria Suites hotel opens to the
public (which will be a short year) or (ii) the grant year starting July 1 after
the Cambria Suites hotel opens to the public, provided RHG must submit a
request to the EDA each year for such a Grant and provide the EDA and the
City sufficient documentation as to RHG's compliance with this Agreement.
For purposes of this Agreement, a 'grant year' means July I through June 30
(for example, if the Cambria Suites hotel opens on January 15, 2008, RHG
may select as the first grant year the period beginning (i) July I, 2007, to June
30,2008, or (ii) July 1,2008, to June 30, 2009.)
C:\DOCUM E-I \cmjb 1 \LOCALS-I \Temp\nOlcsFFF692\- [206055 .doc
3
B. Such Grant may be requested for a maximum period of six (6) consecutive
years, which shall include the first Grant request. Furthermore, if no Grant
request is made for the shOtt grant year mentioned above, such six (6)
consecutive year period shall be deemed to start to run from the grant year
after the Cambria Suites hotel opens and end six (6) years thereafter. The six
(6) year period shall continue to run whether or not a Grant request is made
for any particular year. All Grant requests must be submitted to the EDA
between the period of September I and December 1, for the preceding grant
year or no Grant will be considered or given for that particular year. For
example, if RHG wants to make a request for the grant year of July 1, 2007, to
June 30, 2008, RHG must do so between September I, 2008, and December 1,
2008. Also, in such an example the six (6) consecutive years for which a
Grant could be requested would be July 1, 2007, through June 30, 2013. The
City will cooperate with RHG by providing public information relevant to tax
revenue received from the Property or the Project.
C. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the amount of each Grant request
can be up to an amount equal to 50% of the amount of revenue the City
actually received during the preceding grant year from the Property and the
Cambria Suites hotel coming only from real estate taxes on the Property and
transient occupancy taxes from the hotel. Any new local tax or increase in the
rate of any of the aforementioned taxes for the purpose of dedicating the
incremental revenue for a specific project or purpose shall be excluded from
such amount of tax revenue resulting from the Property or the Cambria Suites
hotel. In no event shall any request be made or granted if the above total
revenue from real estate taxes and transient occupancy taxes for any specific
grant year is less than $275,000.00. Furthermore, there shall be no carryover
from one grant year to the next for any funds from the prior year or years or
for purposes of determining the revenue for any grant year. Each grant year
must be looked at separately to see if the requirements for a Grant request
have been met.
D. The maximum amount of all Grant funds RHG may receive under this
Agreement shall in no event exceed a total of $1,000,000.00. Once this
maximum amount is paid to RHG, RHG may not make any further Grant
requests and no further Grant requests will be considered.
E. By way of example only, assuming RHG has complied with its obligations
under this Agreement, if the Cambria Suites hotel opens on January I, 2008,
and RHG selects the short grant year, it would run from July I, 2007, through
June 30, 2008. If RHG wants to make a Grant request, it must deliver such
request to the EDA between September 1 and December 1, 2008. RHG must
show the total amount of revenue the City actually received only from the real
estate taxes and transient occupancy taxes referred to in this Agreement for
the period of July I, 2007, through June 30, 2008, amounted to over
$275,000.00. The following examples show how the calculation would be
made, with the second example modifying some of the assumptions:
C:\DOCUM E-] \cmjb I \LOCALS-l \T cmp\notesFFF692\-1206055.doc
4
I. This example would apply for any grant year:
Total applicable revenue received by the City - $280,000.00
Since this amount is over the required $275,000.00 minimum
required by the Agreement, RHG could request a grant amount
equal to 50% of the above amount of $280,000.00, which would
equal a $140,000.00 Grant request.
2. This example would apply for any grant year:
Total applicable revenue received by the City - $265,000.00
Since this amount is below the $275,000.00 minimum required by
the Agreement, no Grant request should be made and no Grant
request would be approved. However, this would be considered
a grant year of the total of 6 years for which a Grant request
can be made.
SECTION 4. DISTRIBUTION OF GRANT FUNDS.
Following the end of each grant year, upon RHG's compliance with the obligations set
forth in this Agreement, RHG may request in writing that the EDA obtain and provide the
Grant funds mentioned above in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Such
request must be accompanied by sufficient documentation to establish to the reasonable
satisfaction of the EDA and the City RHG's compliance with the obligations set forth in
this Agreement. Upon receipt of such request, and approval by the EDA (approved
request), the EDA will forward the approved request to the City Manager and Economic
Development Administrator. The written Grant request(s) from RHG to the EDA will be
on a form approved by the EDA's counsel, attached hereto as Exhibit E. The EDA may
disapprove any request not complying with the terms of this Agreement or require a
revised request be submitted. Should the EDA disapprove a Grant request or require that
RHG submit a revised request, the EDA shall provide written notice to RHG stating the
basis for disapproval and any defect in the Grant request and specifying the required
additional information. RHG shall submit the revised or resubmitted request within 30
days of receipt of such written notice. After the EDA approves a request, the EDA will
promptly make a written request to the City for the distribution to the EDA of the City's
appropriation of such funds. The EDA will forward approved Grant requests to the City
Manager and Economic Development Administrator. The City will process such
approved request within 45 days of receipt thereof, subject to such funds being
appropriated. The EDA will make any approved payment to RHG within 10 working
days from the date of receipt of the funds from the City, provided, however, the EDA has
no liability in the event the City delays processing the EDA's requisition. The EDA's
obligations shall be limited to those funds which the EDA shall receive from the City and
shall not be a general obligation, but a special obligation of the EDA. Furthermore, no
Grant requests may be made by RHG or considered by the EDA after December I of the
C:\DOCUME-l \cmjb] \LOCALS-] \Temp\notesFFF692\-1206055 .doc
5
end of the sixth grant year or after the payment of the maximum Grant amount to RHG,
whichever occurs first.
SECTION 5. PAYMENT OF EDA'S FEES.
RHG promises and agrees it will pay all reasonable fees, costs, and expenses of the EDA
in connection with this matter, including any action necessary to collect reimbursement
hereunder or litigation of any type, all of which includes the reasonable fees of the EDA's
counsel. Payment of such items shall not be made from any Grant funds. The EDA will
submit statements to RHG for such items and RHG will pay such statements within 30
days after receipt.
SECTION 6. REPORTS TO THE EDA AND THE CITY.
During the term of this Agreement or until all $1,000,000.00 in approved Grants has been
paid to RHG, whichever occurs first, RHG agrees to report to and provide the EDA and
the City on a semi-annual basis, on or before June 30 and December 31 of each year,
sufficient information related to RHG's compliance with the conditions of this
Agreement and to provide appropriate documentation to support such compliance. RHG
also agrees to allow the EDA, the City, and/or its representative to inspect, audit, copy, or
examine any of RHG's books, documents, or other relevant materials in connection
therewith upon written request by the EDA or the City. All such documents, information
(including electronic data), or access shall be provided or made available within 30 days
of a written request from either the EDA or the City, at no cost to the EDA or the City.
However, any such audit or examination will not be more frequent than twice within a
calendar year.
SECTION 7. COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS.
RHG agrees to comply with all applicable federal, state, and local laws, rules, and
regulations.
SECTION 8. COOPERATION.
Each party agrees to cooperate with the other in a reasonable matter to carry out the intent
and purpose of this Agreement.
SECTION 9. SEVERABILITY.
If any term of this Agreement is found to be void or invalid, such invalidity shall not
affect the remaining terms of this Agreement, which will continue in full force and effect.
The parties intend the remaining provisions of the Agreement be enforced to the fullest
extent permitted by applicable law.

setting forth the provisions of this nondiscrimination clause.
II. RHG in all solicitations or advertisements for employees placed by

C:\DOCUM E-I \cmjb I \LOCALS-l \Temp\notesFFF692\-] 206055.doc
7
SECTION 14. ASSIGNMENT.
RHG agrees not to assign or transfer any part of this Agreement without the prior written
consent of the City and the EDA, which will not be unreasonably withheld, delayed, or

Exhibit E to Performance Agreement Among City of Roanoke,
Roanoke Hotel Group, LLC and EDA
Grant Request Form
This Grant Request is submitted pursuant to a certain Performance Agreement dated
, 2007, (the "Performance Agreement"), by and among the City of Roanoke,
Virginia, ("City"), Roanoke Hotel Group, LLC, ("RHG"), and the Economic Development
Authority of the City of Roanoke, Virginia, ("EDA"). Terms used but not defined herein shall
have the same meanings ascribed to such terms in the Performance Agreement.
The Performance Agreement provides that RHG will develop certain Property and construct and
operate a Cambria Suites Hotel on such Property. The Performance Agreement also provides
that RHG will provide for an investment of at least $14.4 million on the development of the
Facility, of which the amount of at least $1 million must be spent or caused to have been spent
by RHG for certain items connected with the structured ground floor parking and other items as
referred to in the Performance Agreement. These obligations along with other obligations are to
be completed within a certain period of time as set forth in the Performance Agreement.
The Performance Agreement further provides that RHG may, upon compliance with the
provisions of the Performance Agreement, make a request to the EDA for an economic
development grant in an amount equal to 50 % of the amount of revenue the City actually
received during the preceding grant year from the Property and the Cambria Suites Hotel coming
only from real estate taxes on the Property and transient occupancy taxes from the hotel,
provided that such total amount ofrevenue received by the City should not be less than $275,000
for the previous grant year. If the total amount of such revenue from the previous grant year is
less than $275,000, no grant request may be made by RHG and no grant request will be
considered or honored for such grant year. Furthermore, RHG must supply sufficient
documentation as called for by the Performance Agreement to document its request and its
compliance with the Performance Agreement. Each grant year is to be looked at separately to
see if the requirements for a grant request have been met.
RHG warrants and represents that it has complied with all of the terms and conditions of the
Performance Agreement necessary for it to obtain grant funds from the EDA, including but not
limited to all of the provisions of Section 2 of the Performance Agreement, and that it will
continue to comply with the terms and conditions of the Performance Agreement in order to
continue to be eligible to make further grant requests.
Attached to this Grant Request Form is the information RHG represents as being sufficient to
show that the City has been paid the sum of $ from the real estate taxes on the
Property and transient occupancy taxes from the Cambria Suites Hotel for the prior grant year of
July I, , through June 30, , and that such amount exceeds the sum
of $275,000. Accordingly, RHG hereby requests from the EDA an economic development grant,
as provided for in the Performance Agreement, in the amount of $ , which is an
amount equal to 50% of the amount of revenue the City actually received during the preceding
1
grant year as referred to above and is supported by the attached documentation as Attachment A.
This Grant Request is for Grant Year No. _'
Amounts previously paid by the EDA to RHG in economic grants totals $
Since the total amount of all grants that may be requested and/or provided for under the
Performance Agreement is $1 million, the total remaining amount that RHG may request by
future grant requests is $
The Performance Agreement provides that a grant may be requested for a maximum period of
six consecutive years. Therefore, since this is Grant Request No. I, for the grant year of July 1,
, through June 30, , the six consecutive years for which a grant
could be requested are July I, , through June 30,
In the event of a conflict or difference between the terms of the Performance Agreement and
those contained in this Grant Request, the terms and provisions of the Performance Agreement
shall control.
RHG respectfully requests that the EDA process this grant request through the City and send
copies to the City Manager and the City's Economic Development Administrator, in accordance
with the provisions of the Performance Agreement.
This Grant Request is dated

Background:
The City, IMD Investment Group, LLC (IMD), and the Economic Development
Authority of the City of Roanoke, Virginia (EDA), entered into a Performance
Agreement dated November 18, 2004, with a subsequent Amendment No.1
dated November 14, 2006, regarding the development of certain property on
the corner of Wonju Street and Franklin Road, SW, to include a Ukrop's grocery
store and a drug store, anticipated to be a Walgreen's, in what is called the Ivy
Market shopping center. IMD has requested an extension of the due date for
the completion and opening of the drug store to June 30, 2008.
For reasons beyond IMD's control, the construction of the drug store has not
proceeded as originally anticipated. Plans for the drug store have been
approved by the Building Commissioner's office, and building permit issuance
is anticipated shortly. The building's design and material composition will be
consistent with that used on the adjacent Ukrop's supermarket. A copy of the
building elevations is attached.
IMD has met other requirements of its first phase - a Ukrop's grocery store with
58,000 square feet opened to the public and IMD spent in excess of $3 million
on infrastructure costs on the property and one-floor of structured parking
below ground level before July 31, 2007. All other terms of the November 18,
2004, agreement and Amendment No.1 will remain in effect.
Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council

Dear Mayor Harris and Members of City Council:
Subject:
Blue Ridge Behavioral

Background:
The 1998 General Assembly passed HB428 which amended and reenacted
sections of the Code of Virginia relating to local roles and responsibilities for
mental health, mental retardation, and substance abuse services.
Section 37.1-194 of the Code of Virginia, 1950, as amended, requires every
locality to establish a community service board to oversee the delivery of
mental heath, mental retardation and substance abuse services, and it is further
required that the governing body of a locality approve the Performance
Contract.
The City of Roanoke has already established Blue Ridge Behavioral Healthcare
pursuant to this statutory provision as the local community services board. The
adopted budget for FY 2007-2008 includes an appropriation of $446,934 for
Blue Ridge Behavioral Healthcare.

retardation, or substance abuse. Services are to be provided directly or by
contract through the community services board.
Section 3 7.1-198B. Code of Virginia requires all governing bodies for the
localities served by the community services board to approve the Community

FY 2008 Central Office, State Facility, and
Community Services Board Partnership Agreement,
Section 1: Purpose
,
Collaboration through partnerships is the foundation of Virginia's public system of mental health,
mental retardation, and substance abuse services. The CentraL Office of the Department of Mental
Health, Mental Retardation and Substance Abuse Services (the Central Office), State Hospitals
and Training Centers (State Facilities) operated by the Department, an<:l Community Services
Boards (CSBs), which are entities of local governments, are the operational partners in Virginia's
public system for providing these services: CSBsinclude operating CSBs, administrative policy
CSBs, and local government departments with policy advisory CSBs and behavioral health
authorities that are established pursuant to Chapters 5 and 6, respectively, of Title 37.2 of the
Code of Virginia.
Pursuant to State Board Policy 1034, the partners enter into this partnership agreement to
implement the vision statement articulated in State Board Policy 1036 and to improve the quality of
care provided to consumers and enhance the quality of their lives. The goal of this agreement is to
establish a fully collaborative partnership process through which CSBs, the Central Office, and
State Facilities can reach agreements on operational and policy matters and issues. In areas
where it has specific statutory accountability, responsibility, or authority, the Central Office will
make decisions or determinations with the fullest possible participation and involvement by the
other partners. In all other areas, the partners will make decisions or determinations jointly. The
partners also agree to make decisions and resolve problems at the level closest to the issue or
situation, whenever possible. Nothing in this partnership agreement nullifies, abridges, or
otherwise limits or affects the legal responsibilities or authorities of each partner, nor does this
agreement create any new rights or benefits on behalf of any third parties.
The partners share a common desire.for the system of care to excel in the delivery and seamless
continuity of services to consumers and their families, and we seek similar collaborations or
opportunities for partnerships with consumer and family advocacy groups and other stakeholders.
We believe that a collaborative strategic planning process helps to identify the needs of consumers
and ensures effective resource allocation and operational decisions that contribute to the continuity
and effectiveness of care provided across the public mental health, mental retardation, and
substance abuse services system. We agree to engage in such a collaborative planning process.
The Central Office, State Facility, and.CSB partnership reflects a common purpose derived from:
1. Codified roles defined in Chapters 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7 of Tille 37.2 of the Code of Virginia, as
delineated in the Community Services Performance Contract;
2. Philosophical agreement on the importance of consumer-driven services and supports and
other core goals and vaiues contained in this partnership agreement;
3. Operational linkages associated with funding, program planning and assessment, and joint
efforts to address challenges to the public system of services; and
4. Quality improvement-focused accountability to consumers and family members, local and state
governments, and the public at large, as described in the accountability section of this
partnership agreement. .
This partnership agreement also establishes a framework for covering other relationships that may
exist among the partners. Examples of these relationships include Part C of the'lndividuals with
Disabilities Education Act and regional initiatives, such as the Region IV Acute Care Pilot project,
the Discharge Assistance and Diversion program in northern Virginia, reinvestment and'
restructuring projects, the initiative to promote integrated services for individuals with co-occurring
mental illnesses and substance use disorders, and the system transformation initiative.

Recognizing that these unique roles create distinct visions and perceptions of consumer and
service needs at each pOint (statewide, communities, and state facilities) of services planning,
management, delivery, and evaluation, the operational partners are committed to maintaining
effective lines of communication generally and to addressing particular challenges .or concerns.
Mechanisms for communication include the System Leadership Council and its subgroups; the
System Operations Team; represenfation on work groups, task forces, and committees; use of
websites and electronic communication; consultation activities; and circulation of drafts for soliciting
input from other partners. When the need for a requirement is identified, the partners agree to use
a participatory process, similar to the process used by the Central Office to develop Departmental
Instructions for State Facilities, to establish the requirement.
These efforts by the partners will help to ensure that individuals have access to a public,
consumer-driven, community-based, and integrated system of mental health, mental retardation,
and substance abuse services that maximizes available resources, adheres to the most effective,

Community S~rvices Board Partl1er!.?hipAgreement
evidence-based, best, or promising service delivery practices, utilizes the extensive expertise that
is available within the public system of care, and encourages and supports the self-determination,
empowerment, and recovery of consumers.
Section 3: Core Values
The Central Office, State Facilities, and CSBs, the partners to this agreement, share a common
desire for the public system of care to excel in the delivery and seamless continuity of services to
consumers and their families. While they are interdependent, each partner works independently
with both shared and distinct points of accountability, such as state, local, or federal governments,
other funding sources, consumers, and families. The partners embrace common core values that
guide the Central Office, State Facilities, and CSBs in developing and implementing policies,
planning services, making decisions, providing services, and measuring the effectiveness of
service delivery.
Vision Statement
Our core values are based on our vision, articulated in State Board Policy 1036, for the public
mental health, mental retardation, and substance abuse services system. Our vision is of a
consumer-driven and community-based system of serviees and supports that promotes self-
determination, empowerment, recovery, resilience, health, and the highest possible level of
consumer participation in all aspects of community life, including work, school, family, and other
meaningful relationships. This vision also includes the principles of inclusion, participation, and
partnership.
Core Values
1. The Central Office, State Facilities, and CSBs are working in partnership; we hold each other
accountable for adhering to our core values.
2. As partners, we will focus on fostering a culture of responsiveness instead of regulation,
finding solutions rather than assigning responsibility, emphasizing flexibility over rigidity, and
striving for continuous quality improvement, not just process streamlining.
3. As partners, we will make decisions and resolve problems at the level closest to the issue or
situation whenever possible.
4. Services should be provided in the least restrictive and most integrated environment possible.
Most integrated environment means a setting that enables individuals with disabilities to
interact with non-disabled persons to the fullest extent possible (28 CFR pI. 35, App. A, page
450, 1998).
5. All services should be designed to be welcoming, accessible, and capable of providing
interventions properly matched to the needs of consumers with co-occurring disorders.
6. Community and state facility services are integral components of a seamless public,
consumer-driven, and community-based system of care.
7. The goal of all components of our public system of care is that the persons we serve recover,
realize their fullest potential, or mOve to independence from our care.
8. The participation of the consumer and, when one is appointed or designated, the consumer's
authorized representative in treatment planning and service evaluation is necessary and
valuable and has a positive effect on service quality and outcomes.
9. The consumer's responsibility for and active participation in his or her care and treatment are
very important and should be supported and encouraged whenever possible.
4.
05-31-2007
FY 2008 Central.Ottice, State Facility, and
Community Services Board Partnership Agreement \
10. Consumers have a right to be free from abuse, neglect, or exploitation and to have their basic
human rights assured and protected.
11. Choice is a critically important aspect of consumer participation and dignity, and it contributes
to consumer satistaction and desirable outcomes. Consumers should be provided as much as
possible with responsible and realistic opportunities to choose. . .
12. Family awareness and education about a person's disability or illness and services are
valuable whenever the individual with the disability supports these activities.
13. Whenever it is clinically appropriate, children and adolescents should receive services
provided in a manner that supports maintenance of their home and family environment.
Family includes single parents, grandparents, older siblings, aunts or uncles, and other
individuals who have accepted the child or adolescent as a part of their family.
14. Children and adolescents should be in school and functioning adequately enough that the
school can maintain them and provide an education for them.
15. Living independently or in safe and affordable housing in the community with the highest level
of independence possible is desired for adult consumers.
16. Gaining employment, maintaining employment, or participating in employment readiness
activities improves the quality of life for adults with disabilities.
17. Lack of involvement or a reduced level of involvement with the criminal justiee system,
including court-ordered criminal justice services, improves the quality of life of all individuals.
18. Pursuant to State Board POlicy 1038, the public, consumer-driven, and community-based
mental health, mental retardation, and substance abuse services system serves.as.a safety,
net for individuals, particularly people who are uninsured or under-insured, who do not have
access to: other service providers or alternatives.
Section 4: Indicators Reflecting Core Values
Nationwide, service providers, funding sources, and regulators have sought instruments and
methods to measure system effectiveness. No one system of evaluation is accepted as the
method, as perspectives about the system and desired outcomes vary, depending on the unique
role (e.g., as a consumer, family member, payer, provider, advocate, or member ofthe community)
that one has within the system.
Simple, cosl-effective measures reflecting a limited number of core values or expectations
identified by the Central Office, State Facilities, and CSBs guide the public system of care in
Virginia. Any indicators or measures should reflect the core values listed in the preceding section.
The partners agree to identify, prioritize, collect, and utilize these measures as part of the quality
assurance systems' mentioned in section 6 of this agreement and in the quality improvement plan
described in .section 6.b of the Community Services Performance Contract.
Section 5: Advancing the Vision
The operational partners agree to engage in activities to advance the achievement of the ,vision
Statement contained in State Board Policy 1036 and stated in section 3 above. These efforts
include the following activities.
1. Recovery: The partners agree, to the greatest extent possible, to:
a. provide more opportunities for consumers to be involved in decision-making,
b. increase recovery-oriented peer-provided and consumer-run services,
c. educate staff and consumers about recovery, and

d. implement recommendations of the System Transformation Initiative DatalMonitoring Work
Group, for example, use the ROSI or a similar ,mechanism to assess the consumer recovery
orientation of the CSB, Central Office, or State Facility.
2. Integrated Services: The partners agree to advance the values and principles in the Charter
Agreement signed by the Board and the Central Offiee and to increase effectiye screening and
assessment of consumers for co-occurring disorders to the greatest extent practicable.
3. Person-Centered Planning: The partners agree to promote awareness of the principles of
person-centered planning, disseminate and share information about person-centered planning,
and participate on work groups focused on implementing person-centered planning.
Section 6: Accountability
Accountability Improvement
The Central Office, State Facilities, and CSBs agree that it is necessary and importantto have a
system of accountability in order to:
. protect eonsumers,
. improve the quality of services, including services to individuals with co-occurring disorders,
. protect the interests of citizens and various stakeholders, and
. maximize public confidence in the system of care.
The partners also agree that any successful accountability system requires early detection with
faithful, accurate, and complete reporting and review of agreed-upon accountability indicators. The
partners further agree that early detection of problems and collaborative efforts to seek resolutions
improve accountability. To that end, the partners commit themselves to a problem identification
process defined by open sharing of performance concerns and a mutually supportive effort toward
problem resolution. Technical assistance, provided in a non-punitive manner designed not to
"catch" problems but to resolve them, is a key component in an effective system of accountability.
Where possible, joint work groups, representing CSBs, the Central Offiee, and State Facilities,
shall review all surveys, measures, or other requirements for relevance, cost benefit, validity, .
efficiency, and consistency with this statement prior to implementation and on an ongoing basis as
requirements change. In areas where it has specific statutory accountability, responsibility, or
authority, the Central Office will make decisions or determinations with the fullest possible
participation and involvement by the other partners. In all other areas, the partners will make
decisions or determinations jointly.
The partners agree that when accreditation or another publicly recognized independent review
addresses an accountability issue or requirement, where possible, compliance with this outside
review will constitute adherence. to the accountability measure or reporting requirement. Where
accountability and compliance rely on affirmations, the partners agree to make due diligence
efforts to comply fully. The Central Office reserves the powers given to the Department to review
and audit operations for compliance and veracity and upon cause to take actions necessary to
ensure accountability and compliance.
Desirable and Necessary Account~bility Areas
1. Mission of the System. As part of a mutual process, the partners, with maximum input from
stakeholder groups and consumers, will define a small number of key missions for the public
community and state facility services system and a small number of measures of these
missions. State Facilities and CSBs will report on these measures at a minimum frequency
necessary to determine the level and pattern of performance over several years.
6.
05-31-2007
FY 2008 Central Office, State Facility, and
Community Services Board Partnership AgreemenL
2. Central Office Accountability. In addition to internal governmental accountability, the Central
Office agrees to support the mission of the public services system by carrying out its functions
in accordance with the vision and values articulated in section 3. Accountability for the Central
Office will be defined by the fewest necessary measures of key activities that will be reported
at a minimum frequency necessary to determine the level and pattern of performance over
several years.
3. State Facility Accountability. In addition to internal governmental accountability, State
Facilities agree to support the mission of the public services system by carrying out their
functions in accordance with the vision and values articulated in section 3. Accountability for
State Facilities will be defined by the fewest necessary measures of key activities that will be
reported at a minimum frequency necessary to determine the level and pattern of performance
over several years.
4. CSB Accountability. In addition to internal governmental accountability, CSBs agree to
support the mission of the public services system by carrying out their functions in accordance
with the vision and values articulated in section 3. Accountability for CSBs will be defined by
the fewest necessary measures of key activities that will be reported at a minimum frequency
necessary to determine the level and pattern of performance over several years.
5. Legislative Accountability. Additional reporting or responses may be required of CSBs, the
Central Office, or State Facilities by the General Assembly or in support of a legislative request
or study.
I
6. Quality Improvement. CSBs, State Facilities, and the Central Office will manage internal
quality improvement, quality assurance, and corporate compliance systems to monitor
activities, detect and address problems, and minimize risk. These activities require no
standardized reporting outside of that contained in law, regulation, or policy. The partners
agree to identify and, wherever possible, implement evidence-based best practices and
programs to improve the quality ofcare that they provide. In the'critically important area of
service integration for individuals with to-occurring disorders, the partners agree to
a. engage in periodic organizational self-assessment using identified tools,
b. develop a work plan that prioritizes quality improvement opportunities in this area,
c. monitor progress in these areas on a regular basis, and
d. adjust the work plan as appropriate.
7. Fiscal. Funds awarded or Iransferred by one partner to another for a specifie identified
purpose should have sufficient means of accountability to ensure that expenditures of funds
were for the purposes identified. The main indicators for this accountability include an annuai
CPA audit by an independent auditing firm or an audit by the Auditor of Public Accounts and
, reports from the recipient of the funds that display the amounts of expenditures and revenues,
the purposes for which the expenditures were made and, where necessary, the types and
amounts of services provided. The frequency and detail of this reporting shall reflect the
minimum necessary.
8. Compliance with Departmental Regulatory Requirements for Service Delivery. In
general, regulations ensure that. entities operate within the scope of acceptable practice. The
system of Department licensing; in which a licensed entity demonstrates compliance by policy,
procedure, or practice with regulatory requirements for service delivery, is a key accountability
mechanism. Where a service is not subject to state licensing, the partners may define
minimum standards of acceptable practice. Where CSBs obtain nationally recognized
accredilation covering services for which the Department requires a license, the Department,
to the degree practical and with the fullest possible participation and involvement by the other
partners, will consider substituting the accreditation in whole or in part for the application of
specific licensing standards.

Community Services B()ard Partnership Agreement
9. Compliance with Federal and Non-Department Standards and Requireri,ents. In areas
where it has specific statutory accountability, responsibility, or authority, the Central Office will
make decisions or determinations with the fullest possible participation and involvement by the
other partners. In all other areas, the partners will make decisions or determinations jointly.
The Central Office agrees to identify the minimum documentation needed from the other
partners to indicate their compliance with applicable Federal and non-Departmental standards
and requirements. Where possible, this documentation shall include affirmations by CSBs or
State Facilities in lieu of direct documentation. The partners shall define jointly the least
intrusive and least costly compliance strategies, as necessary.
10. COnlpliance with Departmellt-Olitei-mil1ed Requirements. In areas where it has specific
statutory accountability, responsibility, or authority, the Central Office will make decisions or
determinations with the fullest possible participation and involvement by the other partners. In
all other areas, the partners will make decisions or determinations jointly. The Central Office
agrees to define the minimum compliance system necessary to ensure that CSBs and State
Facilities perform due diligence in regard to requirements established by the Central Office
and that this definition will include only the minimum necessary to meet the intent of the State
law or State Board policy for which the requirement is created. Where local government
standards are in place, compliance with the local standards shall be acceptable.
11. Medicaid Requirements. The Central Office agrees to work proactively with the Department
of Medical Assistance Services (DMAS) to create an effective system of accountability that will
ensure services paid for by the DMAS meet minimum standards for quality care and for the
defined benefit. The Central Office, and CSBs to the fullest extent possible, will endeavor to
assist the DMAS in regulatory and compliance simplification in order to focus accountability on
the key al1d most important elements. .
12. Maximizing State and Federal Funding Resources: The partners agree to collect and
utilize available revenues from all appropriate sources to pay for services in order to extend
the use of state and federal funds as much as possible to serve the greatest number of
individuals in need of services. Sources include Medicaid cost-based, fee-for service,
Targeted Case Management, Rehabilitation (State Plan Option), and MR Waiver payments;
other third party payers; auxiliary grants; food stamps; SSI, SSDI, and direct consumer
payments; payments or contributions of other resources from other agencies, such as local
social services or health departments; and other state or local funding sources.
13. Information for Decision-Making: The partners agree to work collaboratively to
a. improve the accuracy, timeliness. and usefulness of data provided to funding sources and
stakeholders;
b. enhance infrastructure and support for information technology systems and staffing; and
c. use this information in their decision-making about resources, services, policies, and
procedures and to communicate more effeetively with funding sources and stakeholders
about the activities of the public services system and its impact on consumers and families.
Section 7: Consumer and Family Member Involvement and Participation
1. Consumer and Family Member Involvement and Participation: CSBs, State Facilities, and
the Central Office agree to take all necessary and appropriate actions in accordance with
State Board Policy 1040 to actively involve and support the participation of consumers and
their family members in policy formulation and services planning, delivery, monitoring, and

2. Consumer and Family Member Involvement in Individual Services Planning and
Delivery: CSBs and StCite Facilities agree to involve consumers and, with the consent of
consumers where applicable, family members, authorized representatives, and significant
others in their care, including the maximum fea~ible degree of participation in individualized
services planning and treatmentdecisions and activities, unless their involv~ment is not
clinically appropriate.
3. Language: CSBs and State Facilities agree that they will endeavor to deliver services in a
manner that is understood by consumers. This involves communicating orally and in writing in
the primary languages of consumers, including Braille and American Sign Language when
applicable, and at appropriate reading comprehension levels.
4. Culturally Competent Services: CSBs and State Facilities agree that in delivering services
they will endeavor to address to a reasonable extent the cultural and linguistic characteristics
of the geographic areas and populations that they serve.
Section 8: System Leadership Council. The System Leadership Council, established by the
partners through this agreement, includes representatives of the Central Office, State Facilities, the
State Mental Health, Mental Retardation and Substance Abuse Services Board, CSBs, consumers,
iocal governments, and other stakeholders. The Council will meet at least quarterly to;'among
other responsibilities:
1. identify, discuss, and resolve issues and problems;
2. examine current system functioning and identify ways to improve or enhance the operations of
the public mental health, mental retardation, and substance abuse services syste(11; and
3. identify, develop, propose, and monitor the implementation of new service modalities, systemic
innovations, and other approaches for improving the accessibility, responsiveness, and cost
effectiveness of publicly funded mental health, mental retardation, and substance abuse
services.
Some of these responsibilities may be carried out through the System Operations Team (SOT),
which includes representatives of the Central Office, State Facilities, and CSBs. The SOT serves
two functions: coordinating the services system's response to programmatic and operational issues
and acting as a problem-solving group. The SOT will meet monthly to prioritize, track, and work
through various operational issues confronting the services system. When appropriate, the SOT
will bring resolutions and policy proposals to the System Leadership Council for its consideration
and action.
Section 9: Communication. CSBs, State Facilities, and the Central Office agree to
communicate fully with .each other to the greatest extent possible. Each partner agrees to respond
in a timely manner 10 requests for information from other partners, considering the type, amount,
and availability of the information requested.
Section 10: Quality Improvement. On an ongoing basis, the partners agree to work together
to identify and resolve barriers and policy and procedural issues that interfere with the most
effective and efficient delivery of public mental health, mental retardation, and substance abuse
services.
Section 11: Reviews, Consultation, and Technical Assistance. CSBs, State Facilities,
and the Central Office agree, within the constraints of available resources, to participate in review,
consultation, and technical assistance activities to improve the quality of services provided to
consumers and to enhance the effectiveness and efficiency of their operations.

Appendix A:' Continuity of Care Procedures
Overarching Responsibility: Sections 37.2-500 and 37.2-601 of the Code ofYirginia and State
Board Policy 1035 state that community s.ervices boa~d~ (CSBs) are the single point of entry into
publicly funded mental health, ment~l ~etardatiori, and substance abuse services. Related to this
principle, it is the responsibility of Boards to assure ,that their consumers receive:
· preadmission screening that confirms the appropriateness of admission to a state hospital or
training center (stale facilities) and
· discharge planning services, beginning at the time of admission to the state facility, that enable
timely discharge from the state facility and appropriate post-discharge, community-based
services.
Throughout this Appendix, ttie term community services board (CSB) is used to refer to an
operating CSB, an administrative policy CSB, a local government department with a policy-
advisory CSB, or a behavioral health authority. State. hospital is defined in !l37.2-1 00 of the Code
of Virginia as a hospital, psychiatrie institute, or other institution ope~ated by the Department that
provides care and treatment for persons with mental illness. Training center,is defined in !l37.2-
100 as a facility operated by the Department for .the treatment, training, or habilitation of persons
with mental retardation.
These procedures must be read and implemented in conjunction with the current Discharge
Planning Protocols, issued by the Department and incorporated by reference as part of this
Document. Applicable provisions in the protocols have replaced most treatment team, discharge,
and post-discharge activities that were described in these procedu~es; however a few remain in the
procedures. In the event of a conflict between any Continuity of Care Procedures and the
Discharge Planning Protocols, the provisions in the protocols shall apply

Appendix B: Discharge Assistance Project Procedures
1. Purpose
The purpose of the Discharge Assistance Project (DAP) is to obtain and provide community
resources to support the successful discharge and placement of state hospital consumers
receiving long-term, extended rehabilitation services or other state hospital consumers whose
special needs have prevented placement in the community and for whom specialized supports
and targeted funding are needed for successful community placement. If a Board receives
state general or federal funds from the Department ~pecifically identified for the DAP, the
Board shall adhere to these procedures, which are subjeCt to all of the applicable provisions of
this Document and the Board's Performance Contract with the Department. In the event of a
conflict between any DAP Procedures and any other provisions of this Document or the
Performance Contract, those other provisions of this Document or of the Contract shall apply.
2. Development and Approval of Individualized Services Plans (ISPs): Under the DAP, the
Board agrees to develop and implement ISPs to serve identified consumers in the community
by providing the services and supports necessary for their successful community placement.
2.1 The Board shall use state general and federal funds provided by the Department and
other funds associated with DAP ISPs obtained by the Board, such as Medicaid-fee-for
service payments, Targeted Case Management fees, Rehabilitation (State Plan Option)
fees, and MR Waiver fees, other third party and direct consumer fees, and local
government funds, solely for the discharge and community support of those consumers
for whom the funds were requested and whose ISPs have been submitted to the
Department.
2.1.1 Prior to the start of each state fiscal year, the Department will send a Letter of
Notification to the Board with an enclosure that shows the tentative allocations of
state general and federal funds for the DAP, based on the current ISPs for the
consumers currently enrolled in the DAP. .
2.1.2 After receipt, the Board shall review its Letter of Notification, current ISPs, DAP
utilization reports, feedback from the Department, performance contract reports, and
other relevant data. Based on this review, the Board shall develop or revise ISPs
for the contract period and submit them to the Department for information purposes.
2.1.3 The total DAP expenses for all of the ISPs submitted pursuant to 2.1.2, less other
funds associated with DAP ISPs (described in section 2.1), shall not exceed the
amount of state general and federal funds allocated to the Board for the DAP. If the
total DAP expenses are less than the Board's total DAP allocation, a representative
of the Department's Office of Mental Health Services will contact the Board
regarding unallocated DAP funds. If the Board is not able to develop one or more
ISPs to utilize these funds for consumers who meet DAP criteria, the Department
may reallocate these available DAP funds according to procedures in section 3, and
the Board's ongoing total annual DAP allocation shall be reduced accordingly. In
the event that a Board's DAP allocation is reduced, the Department shall provide a
written notification of the change in DAP funding to the affected Board. This
notification shall identify the revised annualized amount allocated to the Board for
this project, the effective date of the change, and the individual consumers to be
served for the remainder of the state fiscal year.
2.1.4 Upon review of the ISPs submitted pursuant to section 2.1.2, the Department shall
provide a written Confirmation of DAP Funding to the Board. The Confirmation of
DAP Funding, effective on the first day of the term of this contract, shall identify the
total amount allocated to the Board for the DAP, the particular consumers to be
served, and the annualized expenses of each consumer's ISP.
FY 2008

Community Services Performance Contract General Requirements Document
2.1.5 Following review of the ISPs pursuant to section 2.1.2, the Board [l1ay adjust
services and associated expenses at any time during the state fiscal year without
approval from the Department, as long as the adjusted DAP expenses of all DAP
consumers served by the Board do not exceed the Board's total DAP state general
and federal funds allocation and the funding is used for enrolled DAP consumers
whose ISPs have been submitted to the Department. The Department may review
utilization and financial reports to determine the extent to which such funds transfers
are occurring and may subsequently require revisions of ISPs or adjustment to or
reallocation of statEl general andOtederal funding amounts. Revisions resulting from
discharges from theDAP shall follow the reallocation procedures described in
section 3 of these procedures.
2.1.6 If the Board wishes to enroll new consumers in the DAP, it shall submit ISPs to the
Department for information purposes. The Board shall include a copy of the Needs
Upon Discharge form and the Discharge Plan with each new ISP submitted. The
Board may submit ISPs to enroll new consumers at any time, provided that such
requests are within the Board's total annual DAP allocation of state general and
federal funds and the new consumers meet DAP criteria.
2.1.7 Upon review of new ISPs submitted pursuant to sections 2.1.5 or 2.1.6, the
Department shall provide a written Confirmation of the DAP Revision to the Board.
The Confirmation of the DAP Revision shall identify the amount allocated to the
Board forthe DAP, the effective date of the revision, the individual consumers to be
served for the remainder of the contract term, and the annualized cost of each
consumer's ISP.
2.2 The Board shall immediately notify the Department's Office of Mental Health Services
whenever an enrolled consumer is re-hospitalized at a state hospital, incarcerated, or
otherwise no longer requires DAP funding. Funds that become available as a result of
such changes in consumer status shall follow the reallocation procedures described in
section 3 of these procedures,
3. Reallocation of DAP Funds
3.1 The Board shall immediately notify the Department's Office of Mental Health Services
whenever an enrolled consumer is discharged from the project, that is, he no longer
requires DAP funding. Consumers may be discharged from the DAP for a number of
reasons, including reloeation to another state, alternative funding sources, re-
hospitalization, incarceration, death, or other situations that would make DAP funding
unneeessary.
3.1.1 In cases where an enrolled consumer is re-hospitalized at a state hospital or
incarcerated, but is likely to return to the community within 90 days, the Board may
continue to receive the funds allocated for that consumer during this period. The
Board may continue to receive DAP funds for longer than 90 days for such a
. consumer only with the Department's approval.
3.1.2 In cases where a state hospital consumer has been enrolled in the DAP but actual
discharge from the state facility occurs more than 90 days after the date of
enrollment, the procedures in section 3.1.1 shall apply.
3.1.3 DAP funds received for enrolled consume~s' during pe~iods of hospitalization or
incarceration; up to 90 days or longer pursuant to sections 3.1.1 and 3.1.2, may be
utilized in the following ways. -
3.1.3.1 The Board may use all or a portion of the funds to maintain housing and
provide transitional services for the consumer prior to his discharge.
Discharge planning expenses are not allowable.
FY 2008
33.
05-31-2007
Community Services Performance Contract General Requirements Document
3.1.3.2 The Board may use all or a portion of the funds for non-r;ecurring (one-time)
treatment or support expenses for existing DAP enrollees that were not
budgeted in their ISPs or reimbursed from other sources. These include
expenses associated with medications, mental health or substance abuse
treatment (excluding inpatient treatment), health and dental care or
medically-necessary diagnostic tests, one-time purchases of goods needed
for community living, and security deposits on housing arrangements.
3.1.3.3 The Board may submit a request to the Department to use all or a portion
of the funds for other (nori~DAP) state hospital consumers whose special
needs have prevented placement in the community and for whom
specialized supports and targeted funding are needed for successful
community placement. If the Department approves the request, the Board
may use the funds for non-recurring (one-time) purchases to provide
discharge assistance for non-DAP consumers in state hospitals. These
purchases may include transitional services provided prior to discharge
(excluding discharge planning expenses), medications, health and dental
care, medically necessary diagnostic tests, goods needed for community
living, and security deposits on housing arrangements.
3.1.4 DAP consumers hospitalized at a state hospital or incarcerated for more than 90
days shall be considered discharged from the project, unless the Board obtained
Departmental approval to continue funding beyond 90 days, and DAP state general
and federal funds allocated for their ISPs shall be reallocated according to the
procedures in section 3.2.
3.2 The Department may reallocate state general and federal funds for the DAP that become
available as a result of discharges from the DAP in the following ways.
3.2.1 The Department may reallocate the funds to support the discharge of another state
hospital consumer who meets DAP criteria. The Board serving the identified
consumer shall submit an ISP to the Department for information purposes within 30
days of notification that funds are available.
3.2.2 If the Department does not utilize the funds, the Board serving the consumer who
was discharged from the DAP shall have the opportunity to develop a discharge
plan for another state hospital consumer who meets DAP criteria or to reallocate
funds to existing DAP consumers in need of additional supports, as evidenced by
utilization reports. New or revised ISPs shall be submitted to the Department for
review within 30 days of notification that funds are available.
3.2.3 If the Board does not identify an appropriate DAP consumer and submit an ISP
within 30 days, the state hospital serving that Board's service area may determine
whether those state general and federal DAP funds could be used to support the
discharge of another consumer in that area who meets DAP criteria. The Board
serving such an identified consumer shall submit an ISP to the Department for
review within 30 days of notification that funds are available.
3.3 Upon review of ISPs developed using reallocated funds, the Department shall provide a
written notification of changes in DAP funding to the Boards affected by the reallocation of
funds. This notification shali identify the revised amount of state general and federal DAP
funds allocated to each Board, the effective date of the change, and the individual
consumers to be served for the remainder of the contract term.
4. Reporting
4.1 The Board shall provide aggregate semi-annual reports, as part of its performance
contract reports, on the number of consumers served, the total expenditures for all DAP

ISPs, and the total amount of DAP restricted revenues expended, Boar,ds shall not be
required to submit more frequent standard reports or reports on individual consumers.
The Board also shall identify all DAP consumers that it serves in its CCS 3 extract
submissions using the Consumer Designation Code for the DAP.
5. Project Management
5.1 The Department shall be responsible for the allocation of DAP state general and federal
funds and the overall management of the Discharge Assistance Project (DAp).
5.2 The Board shall be responsible for managing DAP funds in accordance with the reviewed
ISPs and the procedures described in this app~ndix. .
5.3 The Department shall allocate state general and federal DAP funds provided to support
ISPs on a state fiscal year basis.
5.4 Within the Board's overall DAP budget, funds may be expended for any combination of
services that assure the needs of participating consumers are met in a community setting.
The Board shall update and revise ISPs in response to tlie changing needs of
participating Consumers.
5.5 Revenues generated from third party and other sources for any DAP participating
consumer shall remain in the Board's overall DAP budget to offset the costs of care for
those consumers. The Board shall collect and utilize all available revenues from other
appropriate sources to pay for DAP ISPs before using state general and federal funds to
pay for those ISPs to ensure the'most effective use of these state general and federal
funds. These other sources include Medicare; Medicaid-fee-for service, Targeted Case
Management fees, Rehabilitation (State Plan Option) fees, and MR Waiver payments;
other third party payors; auxiliary grants; SSI, SSDI, and direct payments by consumers;
payments or contributions of other resources from other agencies, such as social services
or health departments; and other state, local, or Department funding sources.
5.6 The Department may eonduct on-going u.ti,lization review of ISP~ anqani'Ilyze utilization
and financial information and consumer-related events, such as re:hospitalization, to
ensure the continued appropriateness of services and to monitor compliance with ISPs.

Community Resource Pharmacy may be purchased with DAP funds an,d shall be
accounted for accordingly. .
7.5 In the event ttiat a consumer identified as a participant in the Discharge Assistance
Project chooses to relocate to another Board, the Department shall reallocate state
general and federal DAP funds to that Board to support that consumer's ISP. These
funds will be reallocated as a project fund transfer at the approved fundjng level in that
consumer's ISP. Should funds other than state general and federal funds provided
through the DAP be required to support the individual in the changed setting, it is the
responsibility of the new Board to provide or obtain those funds. .
7.6 A particular consumer who is placed outside of the service area of his case management
Board may have specific conditions associated with his ISP that do not conform with the
provisions in section 7.5. For such a consumer, the Board agrees that, as the consumer's
case management-Board, it will remain responsible for his out-of-service area placement.
If state hospital readmission is required, the consumer will return to the state hospital of
origin or the case management Board's primary state hospital.

Appendix C: Federal Substance Abuse Prevention and Treatment Blpck Grant
Requirements .
Certification Regarcling Environmental Tobacc() l>1TI()ke: Substance Abuse Prevention and
Treatment (SAPT) Block Grant and Community Mental Health Services Block Grant
Public Law 103-227, also known as the Pro-Children Act of 1994 (Act), requires that smoking not
be permitted in any portion of any indoor facility owned or leased or contracted for by an entity and
used routinely or regularly for the provision of health, day care, early childhood development
services, education or library s~rvices to children underthe age on8; if the sehtices 'are funded by
federal programs either directly or through state or local governments, by federal grant, contract,
loan, or loan guarantee. The law also applies to children's services that are construCted, operated,
or maintained with such federal funds. The law does not apply to children's services provided in
private residences; portions of facilities used for inpatient drug or alcohol treatment; Boards whose
sole source of applicable federal funds is Medicare or Medicaid; or facilities where WlC coupons
are redeemed. Failure to comply with the provisions of the law may result in the imposition of a
civil monetary penalty of up to $1,000 for each violation and/or the imposition of an administrative
compliance order on the responsible entity.
By signing a performance contract, a Board certifies that it will comply with the requirements of the
Act and will not allow smoking within any portion of any indoor facility used for the provision of
services to children as defined by the Act.
A Board agrees that it will require that the language of this certification be included in any
subawards that contain provisions for children's services and that all subrecipients shall certify
accordingly.
Special Federal Substance Abuse Prevention and Treatment Block Grant (CFDA 93.959)
Compliance Requirements
Treatment services provided with federal Substance Abuse Prevention and Treatment Block Grant
(SAPT) funds must satisfy federally mandated requirements. SAPT funds must be treated as the
payer of last resort only for providing services to pregnant women and women with dependent
children and TB and HIV services [Source: 45 CFR ~ 96.137]. Relevant requirements of the
Substance Abuse Prevention and Treatment Block Grants; Interim Final Rule (45 CFR Part 96) are
summarized below. As subgrantees of the Department, the Board and its subcontractors under
this performance contract are responsible for compliance with these requirements. Failure to
address these require'ments may jeopardize all SAPT block grant funds awarded to the Board.
1. Meet Set-Aside Requirements: Federal law requires that the state expend its allocation to
address established minimum set-asides. In order to address these set-asides, the
Department shall designate its awards 10 the Board in specified categories, which may include:
a. primary prevention,
b. services to pregnant women and women with dependent children, and
c. services for persons at risk of HIV/AIDS.
The Board must utilize these funds for the purposes for which they are indicated in the
performance contract and the letter of notification. The Board must provide documentation in
its semi-annual (2nd quarter) and annual (4th quarter) performance contract reports of
expenditures of the set-asides to the Office of Substance Abuse Services and the Division of
Finance and Administration in the Department to ensure that the state meets its set-aside
requirements.

Community Services Performance Contract General Requirements Document
2. Primary Prevention Services: Federal law requires that funds designated for primary
prevention services be' directed at individuals not identified to be in need oflreatment and that
a variety of strategies be utilized, to include the following strategies.
a. Information Dissemination: This strategy provides awareness and knowledge of the nature
and extent of alcohol, tobacco, and druguse,'abuse, and addiction and their effects on
individuals, families, and communities. It also provides knowledge and awareness of
available prevention programs and services. Information dissemination is characterized by
one-way communication from the source to the audience, with limited contact between the
two. Examples of activities conducted and methods used for this strategy include:
1) clearinghouse and information resource center( s),
2) resource directories,
3) media campaigns,
4) brochures,
5) radio and TV public service announcements,
6) speaking engagements,
7) health fairs and health promotion, and
8) information lines.
b. Education: This strategy involves two-way communication and is distinguished from the
information dissemination strategy by the fact that interaction between the educator or
facilitator and the participants is the basis of its activities. Activities under this strategy aim
to affect critical life and social skills, including decision-making, refusal skills, critical
analysis (e.g. of media messages), and systematic judgment abilities. Examples of
activities conducted and methods used for this strategy include:
1) classroom and small group sessions (all ages),
2) parenting and family management classes,
3) peer leader and helper programs,
4) education programs for youth groups, and
5) children of substance abusers groups.
c. Alternatives: This strategy provides for the participation of target populations in activities
that exclude alcohol, tobacco, and other drug use. The assumption is that constructive and
healthy activities offset the attraction to, or otherwise meet the needs usually filled by,
alcohol, tobacco, and other drugs and would, therefore, minimize or obviate resort to the
latter. Examples of activities conducted and methods used for this strategy include:
1) drug free dances and parties,
2) youth and adult leadership activities,
3) community drop-in centers, and
4) community-service activities.
d. Problem Identification and Referral: This strategy aims at identification of those who have
indulged in illegal or age-inappropriate use of tobacco or alcohol and those persons who
have indulged in the first use of illicit drugs in order to assess if their behavior can be
reversed through education. It should be noted, however, that this strategy does not
include any activity designed to determine if a person is in need of treatment. Examples of
activities conducted and methods used for this strategy include:
1) employee assistance programs,
2) student assistance programs, and
3) driving while under the influence and driving while intoxicated programs.
e. Community-Based Process: This strategy aims to enhance the ability of the community to
provide prevention and treatment services for alcohol, tobacco, and drug abuse disorders
more effectively. Activities in this strategy include organizing, planning, enhancing
FY 2008
38.
05-31-2007
Community Services Performance Contract General Requirements Document
efficiency and effectiveness of services implementation, inter-agency cOllllboration, coalition
building, and networking. Examples of activities conducted and methods'used for this
strategy include:
1) community and volunteer training, e.g., neighborhood action training, training of key
people in the system, staff and officials training;
2) systemic planning;
3) multi-agency coordination and collaboration;
4) accessing services and funding; and
5) community team-building.
f. Environmental: This strategy establishes or changes written and unwritten community
standards, codes, and attitudes, thereby influencing the incidence and prevalence of the
abuse of alcohol, tobacco, and other drugs used in the general population. This strategy is
divided into two subcategories to permit distinction between activities that center on legal
and regulatory initiatives. and those that relate to the service and action~oriented initiatives.
Examples of activities conducted and methods used for this strategy include:
1) promoting the establishment and review of alcohol, tobacco, and drug use policies in
schools;
2) technical assistance to communities to maximize local enforcement procedures
affecting the availability and distribution of alcohol, tobacco, and other drugs;
3) modifying alcohol and tobacco advertising practices; and
3) product pricing strategies.
. [Source: 45 CFR ~ 96.125]
3. Services to Pregnant Women and Women with Dependent Children: Federal law requires
that funds allocated to the Board under this set-aside must support, at a minimum, the
following services, either directly or by a written memorandum of understanding:
a. primary medical care for women, including referral for prenatal care, and child care while
such women are receiving this care;
b. primary pediatric care, including immunization for their children;
c. gender-specific substance abuse treatment and other therapeutic interventions for women
that may address issues of relationships, sexual and physical abuse, and parenting and
child care while the women are. receiving these services;
d. therapeutic interventions for children in custody of women in treatment that may, among
other things, address their developmental needs and their issues of sexual and physical
abuse and neglect; and
e. sufficient case management and transportation to ensure that women and their.children
have access to services provided by paragraphs 2,a-d.
In addition to complying with the requirements described above, the Board shall:
a. treat the family as a unit and; therefore, admit both women and their children into treatment
services, if appropriate [Source: 45 CFR ~ 96.124(e)]; .
b. report io the Department when it has insufficient capacity to provide treatment to the
woman and make available interim services, including a referral for prenatal care, within 48
hours of the time the woman initially seeks services [Source: 45 CFR ~ 96.131]; and
c. publicize the availability and priority of treatment for pregnant women [Source: 45 CFR ~
96.131].

4. Preference in Admission: The Board must give preference in admission \0 pregnant women
who seek or are referred for and would benefit from SAPT Block Grant-funded treatment
services. The Board must give admission preference to consumers in the following order:
a. pregnant injecting drug users,
b. other pregnant substance abusers,
c. other injecting drug users, and
d. all other individuals.
[Source: 45 CFR 9 96.128]
5. Services for persons at risk of HIV/AIDS: Federal law (45 CFR 9 96.128) requires that
funds allocated to the Board under the HIV Early Intervention Serviees set-aside must support,
at the sites at which the individuals are undergoing treatment for substance use disorders, the
following services, either directly or by a written memorandum of understanding:
a. appropriate pre-test counseling for HlV and AIDS;
b. testing individuals with respect to such disease, including tests to confirm the presence of
the disease, tests to diagnose the extent of the deficiency in the immune system, and tests
to provide information on appropriate therapeutic measures for preventing and treating the
deterioration of the immune system and for preventing and treating conditions arising from
the disease;
c. appropriate post-test counseling; and
d. providing the therapeutic measures described in b.
[Source: 45 CFR 9 96.121]
Additionally, if the Board receives HlV Early Intervention Services set-aside funding, it must
establish linkages with a comprehensive community resource network of related health and
social services organizations to ensur~ a wide-based knowledge of the availability of serviees
for HlV disease. [Source: 45 CFR 9 96.128]
Finally, if the Board receives HIV Early Intervention Services set-aside funding, it must ensure
that early intervention services for HIV disease are undertaken voluntarily by, and with the
informed consent of, the individual, and that undergoing such services will not be required as a
condition of receiving treatment services for substance abuse or any other services.
[Source: Section 1924(b )(6) of the Public Health Service Aet]
6. Interim Services: Federal law requires that the Board, if it receives any Federal Block Grant
funds for operating a program of treatment for substance addiction or abuse, either directly or
through arrangements with other public or private non-profit organizations, routinely make
available services for persons who have sought admission to a substance abuse treatment
program yet, due to lack of capacity in the program, have not been admitted to the program.
While awaiting admission to the program, these individuals must be provided, at a minimum,
with certain interim services, including counseling and education about HIV and tuberculosis
(TB). Interim services means services that are provided until an individual is admitted to a
substance abuse treatment program. The purposes of such interim services are to reduce the
adverse health effects of substance abuse, promote the health of the individual, and reduce
the risk of transmission of disease.
a. For pregnant women, interim services also include counseling about the effects of alcohol
and drug abuse on the fetus and referral for prenatal care. [Source: 45 CFR 9 96.121,
Definitions]
b. At a minimum, interim services must include the following:
1) counseling and education about HIV and tuberculosis (TB),

2) the risks of needle sharing, the risks of transmission to sexual partner~ and infants, and
3) the steps that can be taken to ensure theHIV and TB transmission does not occur and
include referral for HIV or TB treatment services; if necessary.
[Source: 45 CFR SS 96.121 and 96.126]
7. Services for Indi~iduals with Intravenous Drug Use: If the Board offers a program that
treats individuals for intravenous drug abuse, it must
a. provide notice to the Department within seven days when the program reaches 90 percent
of capacity; .
b. admit each individual who requests and is in need of treatment for intravenous drug abuse
not later than: .
1) 14 days after making the request, or
2) 120 days after making the request if the program

appropriate treatment program within a reasonable geographic area;
e. take individuals awaiting treatment off the waiting list only when one of the following
conditions exists:
1) such persons cannot be located for admission, or
2) such persons refuse treatment; and

contract for conformity to Letter of Notification allocations and makes corrections and
changes on the financial forms in Exhibit A of the contract.
2. The Offices of Mental Health, Child and Family, Mental Retardation, and
Substance Abuse Services review and approve new service proposals and
consider program issues related to existing services, based on Exhibit A and the
service level analyses provided by the OCC Administrator negotiating the contract.
3. The Office of Community Contracting (OCC) assesses contract completeness,
examines maintenance of local matching funds, analyzes existing service levels,
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 OCC Administrator notifies the Board when its
contract is not complete or has not been approved and advises the Board to revise
and resubmit its contract.

and service extract files for all of FY 2007 to the OITS in time to be received by August

the inclusion of all units of services delivered in FY 2007, which might not be in local
information systems in July. Since all services provided by Boards directly and
contractually should be in their local information systems, service unit information in final
CCS 2 FY 2007 submissions should match service unit information in FY 2007 CARS
performance contract reports. Any corrections of service information needed as a result
of Departmental review of t~~ August 29 submissions must be completed by October 1.

without a contract signed by the Commissioner.
After the Commissioner sighs it, the OCC sends a copy of the approved contract Exhibit
A to the Board, with the signature page containing only the Commissioner's signature.
The Board must review this contract, which reflects all of the changes negotiated by
Department staff (see 7-31-07); complete the signature page, which documents its
acceptance of these changes; and return the completed signature page to the OCC.
10-01-07: Boards send complete FY 2007 end of the fiscal year performance contract reports that
include Uniform Cost Report information electronically in CARS-ACCESS to the OITS in
time to be received by October 1. Reports must be accompanied by the Executive
Director's certification that the software error check was performed, the report contains
no errors identified by the error checking software, and the data submitted in the reports
is accurate.
Boards must insure that substance abuse prevention units of service data in their CARS-
ACCESS end of the fiscal year reports are identical to the units of service data that they
submitted through the KIT Prevention System,
OITS staff places the reports in a temporary data base for OCC and OGM staff to
access them and print paper copies of the reports. OCC Administrators review services
sections of reports for correctness, completeness, consistency, and acceptability;

financial portions of reports for arithmetic accuracy, completeness, consistency, and
conformity with state funding actions; resolve discrepancies with Boards; communicate
necessary changes to Boards; and make the changes on the paper copies of the
. reports.
'Once OCC and OGM staff complete their reviews and corrections of a Board's reports,
the OCC administrator notifies the Board to submit new reports, reflecting only those
approved changes, to OITS. Upon receipt, the process described above is repeated to
ensure that the new reports contain only those changes identified byOGM and OCC
staff. If the reviews document this, OCC and OGM staffs approve the reports. OITS
staff then processes final report data into the Department's community database.
Late report submission, if an extension of the October 1 due date has not been obtained
through the process in Exhibit I of this contract," or submitting a report without correcting
errors identified by the CARS-ACCESS error checking program will result in a letter from

transmission of the status of their requests by 5:00 p.m. on the second business day before
the date in the second step.
5. If an extension of the end of the fiscal year report due date is granted, this will not result in
automatic continuation of semi-monthly payments. All of the requirements for these payments,
contained in Exhibit E, must be sa.tisfied for semi-monthly payments to continue.

Exhibit J: Regional Program Procedures
Regional Program Definition
A regional program provides services to individuals who are consumers of a group of Boards, and
it may be managed by the group of Boards, have multiple service sites, and provide more than one
type of service. Regional programs also include self-contained, single purpose programs (e.g.,
providing one type of core service, usually residential) operated by one Board for the benefit of
other Boards or programs contracted by one Board that serve consumers from other Boards.
Finally, some programs (e.g., substance abuse residential or mental health day support programs)
that are operated by individual Boards also may serve consumers from other Boards through
contractual or purchase of service arrangements. These individual Board programs are not
regional programs, but some of these principles, concepts, and models could be applied to them.
Purposes of Regional Program Principles, Operational Concepts, and Models
The regional program principles, operational concepts, and models enable Boards to implement,
manage, and account for and the Department to monitor regional programs on a more consistent
basis and help ensure that performance contracts and reports, including the CARS and the
Community Consumer Submission 3 (CCS 3), contain all needed information, completely and
accurately, about consumers and services.
Regional Program Principles
The following principles should guide the development and operation of regional programs.
1. All revenues, expenses, and costs for a regional program should be reported only once.
,2. Each consumer who is served should be reported only once for a particular service. However,
a consumer receiving services from more than one Board 'should be reported by each Board for
the service(s) that it provides.
3. Each service provided by a regional program should be reported only once.
4. Double counting a service or a consumer receiving a service must be avoided.
5. For certain regional programs, where a Board (the case management Board) refers its
consumer to a regional program that is operated by a contract agency and paid for by the
region's fiscal agent Board, the case management Board should report the service, even
though it did not provide or pay for it, since there would be no other way for information about it
to be extracted through the CCS 3.
6. Avoiding duplicate reporting of consumers, services, revenues, expenses, and costs should be
addressed, preferably in an Exhibit D or less preferably in a regional memorandum of
agreement (MOA).
7. Boards should be able to transfer state, local, and federal funds to each other to pay for
services that they purchase from each other.
8. Because the CCS 3 is the basis for all statewide individual consumer information, all individuals
served by a Board in any manner must be included in the Board's information system, so that
the necessary consumer and service information can be extracted by the CCS 3 and provided
to the Department.
9. Existing reporting systems (the CCS 3 and the CARS) should be used wherever possible,
rather than developing new reporting systems, to avoid unnecessary or duplicative data
collection and entry. For example, the special project function in the CCS 3 could be used to
report additional data elements that are not in the CCS 3 for special projects, instead of
establishing new, stand-alone reporting mechanisms. This would reduce Board workload.
10. Any new service or program should be implemented as simply as possible regarding reporting
requirements. For example, allocating all of the Regional Discharge Assistance Project funding
50.
05-31-2007
FY 2008 Community Services Performance Contract
to one (fiscal agent) Board rather than to each Board based on approved DAP ISPs may create
significant extra work for Boards with little appreciable gain in accountability. .
11. Boards and the Department have provider and local or state authority roles that involve non-
direct services tasks, such as utilization management and regional authorization committees.
These roles cause additional administrative and Il)<)nagement expenses for region91 programs.
Boards should report these expenses as part of iheir'costs of delivering regional services.
12. The Department should factor in and accept these administrative and management expenses
as allowable costs of regional programs.
13. Board and state costs for a service should be the same: the true cost, riot the subsidized
(re'duced) cost that may be identified and reported now for some regional programs,' True
costs'should be reported to the General Assembly and used for other accountability purposes.
14. If a Board participating in a rl3gionai' program supplements the allocation ot"state or federal
funds received by the Board operating that program by transferring resources to the operating
Board, the participating I?oard should show the transfer as an expense on financial forms but
not as a cost on service forms in its performance contract and reports. Then, the participating
Board will avoid displaying an unrealistically low service cost in its contract and reports for the
regional program and d~.ut;>le counting consumers served by and service units delivered in the
regional program, since.the operating Board already reports this information.
15. Regional programs should receive the same state funding increases as regular Board grant-
funded activities, such as the salary increases for community services provided from time to
time by the General Assembly in the Appropriation Act.
16. Unexpended balances of regional program funds should not be retained by the participating
Boards to which the regional fiscal agent Board or the Department has disbursed the funds.
Those balances should be available for redistribution during the fiscal year among the"
participating Boards to ensure maximum utilization of these funds.' Each regional program
should establish procedures for monitoring expenditures of regional program funds and
redistributirig those balances. These procedures should be stated , preferably in an Exhibit D or
less preferably in a regional MOA.
17. Regional program funding issues, such as the amount, sources, or adequacy of funding for a
regional program, the distribution of state allocations for it among participating Boards, and the
financial participation of each Board whose consumers receive services from the regional
program, should be resolved at the regional level among the Boards participating in the
program, with the Department providing information or assistance upon request.
18. If possible, regional funding and reporting approaches should be developed that encourage or
provide incentives for the contribution of local dollars to regional activities.
19. If a Board that operates or serves as the fiscal agent for a regional program cannot satisfy the
statuklry minimum 10 percent local matching funds requirement due to the state funds that it
receives for that regional program, the Depar!ment, in accordance with provisions in the
Community Services Performance Contract, State Board Policy 4010, and S 37.2-509 of the
Code of Virginia, shall grant an automatic waiver of that matching funds requirement.
Regional Program Operational Con.cepts
The foll~\Ning concepts provide a framework for the development, implementation, and operation of
regional programs. ..
1. Management APwoach: The regional approach is aninvaluable tool for maximizing the use
of resources and for increasing the effectiveness of tlie services system. The regional
approach is a highly .effective tool for allocating and managing resources and for coordinating
the delivery and managing the utilization of services. However, individual consumers generally
will continue to be served by particular Boards; services will continue to be provided by
51. 05-31-2007
FY 2008 Community Services Performance Contract
individual Boards directly or through contracts with other providers; each Bo\!rd will continue to
contract for and report on the consumers that it serves and the services that'it provides; and
each consumer will access services through and have his or her individualized services plan
managed by a particular Board. Boards are the only organizations identified in the Code of
Virginia and the Appropriation Act that the Department can fund for the delivery of community
mental health, mental retardation, or substance abuse services. This is consistent with the
statutory identity of Boards as the single points of entry into publicly funded mental health,
mental retardation, and substance abuse services, and Boards are the local points of
accountability for the coordination of those services.
2. Individual Board Reporting: Implementation of the CCS 3, a secure and HIPAA-compliant
individual consumer data reporting system, makes it even more important that a Board reports
all of the services that it provides directly or contractually to consumers, Because the CCS 3 is
the basis for all statewide individual consumer information, all individuals served by Boards in
any manner must be included in individual Board information systems, so that necessary
consumer and service information can be extracted by Boards and provided to the Department
using the CCS 3. The Department will be extracting performance contract report information
about consumers and services from the CCS 3, rather than continuing to receive some
separate CARS contract reports containing this information. If a Board does not collect
information about all of its consumers and services, including thcise in regional programs, in its
information system, it will not be able to extract and report complete information about its
operations to the Department, and the CCS 3 will not be complete.
Therefore, each Board participating in a regional program will admit the consumers that it
serves through the regional program to the applicable program area(s) and will maintain CCS 3
data about those consumers in its information system. For performance contract and report
(CARS and CCS 3) purposes, each participating Board will maintain and report revenue,
expense, cost, consumer, and service information associated with the regional program for
each consumer that it serves through that program. If one Board operates a regional program
on behalf of other Boards in a region, it admits all consumers for services provided by that
regional program, maintains CCS 3 data about these consumers in its information system, and
maintains and reports revenue, expense, cost, consumer, and service information for all
consumers that it serves through that program.
3. Regional Program Funding, Contracting, and Reporting: Depending on the design of a
regional program, the Department may disburse the state or federal funds for a regional
program to each participating Board or to one Board that operates a regional program or
agrees to serve as the fiscal agent for a regional program. Sections 37.2-100,37.2 -504, and
37.2-508 of the Code of Virginia define and establish the community services performance
contract as the mechanism through which the Department provides state general and federal
funds to Boards for community mental health, mental retardation, and substance abuse
services and through which Boards report on.the use of those funds.
a. If the Department disburses regional program funds to each participating Board, each
participating Board will follow existing performance contract and report requirements and
procedures for that portion of the regional program funded by that participating Board.
'b. If the Department disburses regional program funds to the Board that operates a regional
program on behalf of the other Boards in a region whose consumers receive services from
that regional program, the operating Board will follow existing performance contract and
report requirements and procedures, as if the regional program were its own program.
c. If the Department disburses regional program funds to a Board that has agreed to serve as
the fiscal agent (fiscal agent Board) for the regional program, disbursements will be based
on, accomplished through, and documented by appropriate procedures contained
preferably in an Exhibit D or less preferably in a regional MOA and in electronic data
interchange (EDI) transfer records.
52.
05-31-2007
,
FY 2008 Community Services Performance Contract
d. When funds are disbursed to a fiscal agent Board, each participating Board will identify,
track, and report regional program funds that it receives and spends as funds for that
regional program. Each participating Board, including the fiscal agent Board, will reflect in
its CARS reports and CCS 3 extracts only its share of the regional program, in terms of
consumers served, services provided, revenues received, expenses made, and costs of the
services. Any monitoring, reporting, and accountability related to the fiscal agent Board's
handling of the state or federal funds will be accomplished through the performance
contract and reports.
e. The Department and participating Boards may decide to establish parallel but separate,
more detailed reporting, contracting, and management processes for some regional
programs, when more information beyOnd that contained in the performance contract and
reports and the CCS 3 is needed to monitor or manage the program. These processes
should be documented in procedures contained preferably in an Exhibit D or less preferably
. in a regional MOA.
f. Even when there are separate reporting and monitoring procedures in place, each Board
participating in a regional program still must include the relevant consumer, service,
revenue, and expense information in its CARS reports and CCS 3 extracts. This will ensure
that a Board's information, accumulated through automated processes such as the CARS
and the CCS 3, reflects all of its consumer, service, revenue, expense, and cost
information, including the regional programs in which it participates.
4. Regional Program Monitoring and Management: Monitoring and management activities
, may be carried out differently, depending on how a particular regional program is structured
and operated. Generally, it is desirable for the participating Boards to establish an organization
or use an existing one to manage and monitor the operation of a regional program. Procedures
for and operations of these monitoring and management activities, such as regional
authorization or utilization management committees, should be described preferably in an
Exhibit D or in a regional MOA.
Four Regional Program Models
The following models have been developed for Boards and the Department to use in designing,
implementing, operating, monitoring, and evaluating regional programs. These models are
paradigms that could be altered by mutual agreement among the Boards and the Department as
regional circumstances warrant. However, to the greatest extent possible, Boards and the
Department should adhere to these models to support and reinforce more consistent approaches
to the operation, management, monitoring, and evaluation of regional programs. Boards should
review these models and, in consultation with the Department, implement the applicable provisions
of the model or models best suited to their particular circumstances, so that the operations of any
regional program will be congruent with one of these models.
53.
05-31-2007
FY 2008 Community Services Perform;m<;e Contract
1. Operating Board-Funded Regional Program Model ,
1. The Board that operates a regional program receives state and sometimes other funds from
the Department for the program. This operating Board provides the services, projects the total
consumers served, units of service, static capacity, revenues, expenses, and cost for the
regional program in its performance contract and contract revision( s), and reports total actual
consumers served, units of service(s) delivered, revenues, expenses, and cqst(s) in its
performance contract reports (CARS) and Community Consumer Submission 3 (CCS 3)
extracts. Other Boards, which refer consumers to the regional program for services, project
and report nothing for the regional program in their contracts, CARS reports, or CCS 3 extracts.
2. The operating Board admits consumers receiving services from the regional program to the
applicable program area (all MH, MR, or SA services) and develops individualized services
plans (ISPs) for them for service(s) provided by the regional program. When consumers
complete receiving all services from the regional program, they are discharged from the
applicable program area by the operating Board, unless they are consumers of and are
receiving other services in that program area from that operating Board. If consumers also are
receiving services from the operating Board in another program area, the Board admits them to
that program area. The operating Board provides appropriate information about the services
provided and other clinical information to the Board that referred the consumer to the regional
program for clinical record keeping purposes at the referring Board.
3. The operating Board ensures that the appropriate information about consumers and services in
the regional program is entered into its information system, so that the information can be
extracted by the CCS 3 and reported in the CCS 3 and applicable CARS reports. Thus, for
performance contract and reporting purposes, individuals receiving services from a regional
program operated by that Board are consumers of that operating Board.
4. Each of the other Boards whose consumers receive services from this regional program admits
those consumers to the applicable program area and provides a service, such as case
management, consumer monitoring, or another appropriate service, but not in the service(s)
provided by the regional program. Thus, consumers receiving services from a regional
program will appear in the CCS 3 extracts for two Boards and will be reflected in the CARS
reports for two Boards (unless they are consumers only of the operating Board), but not for the
same service(s).
5. If the other Boards whose consumers receive services from this regional program provide
additional funds to the operating Board to supplement the funds that the operating Board
receives from the Department for the regional program, these other Boards show the revenues
and expenses for this supplement on the financial forms in their performance contracts,
contract revisions, and reports. However, these other Boards do not show any services
provided, consumers served, or costs for the regional program's services on the service forms
in their contracts, revisions, or reports. These other Boards include an explanation on the
Financial Comments page of the difference between the expenses on the financial forms and
the costs on the service forms. The operating Board shows the services provided, consumers
served, and total costs (including costs supported by supplements from the other Boards) for
the regional program's services on its service forms, but it does not show any revenues or
expenses associated with the supplements on the financial pages in its contract, contract
revision(s), and reports. The operating Board includes an explanation of the difference
between the expenses on the financial forms and the costs on the service forms on the
Financial Comments page.
6. All of the Boards, to the extent practicable, determine individual Board allocations of the state
and sometimes other funds received from the Department, based on service utilization or an
agreed-upon formula.
54.
05-31-2007
FY 2008 Community Services Performance Contract
7. Regional programs should receive the same state funding increases as regulflr Board grant-
funded activities, such as the salary increases for community services provided from time to
time by the General Assembly in the Appropriation Act.
Boxwood (Rappahannock-Rapidan CSB) and New Hope (Valley CSB) are examples of this model.
This model also could be adapted by a region to handle its L1POS services, if one Board receives
all of the L1POS funds, admits all of the consumers receiving L1POS services, and pays all of the
L1POS providers. This adaptation should be negotiated with the Department by the participating
Boards and must refl.ected in a description of the modified model attached to each Board's
contract.
2. All Participating Boards-Funded Regional Program Model
1. Each Board that participates in, meaning whose consumers receive services from, a regional
program that is operated by one of those Boards receives state and somelimes other funds
from the Department for that program. Each participating Board may supplement this amount
with other funds available to it if the funds received from the Department are not sufficient to
cover the regional program's expenses. Each participating Board uses those funds to
purchase services from the regional program for its consumers, projects the consumers served,
units of service(s), static capacity, revenues, expenses, and cost for the regional program in its
performance contract and contract revision(s) and reports actual consumers served, unit~ of
service(s) delivered, revenues, expenses, and costs in its performance contract reports (CARS)
and Community Consumer Submission 3 (CGS 3) extracts only for its consumers.
2. The regional program operated by one of the participating Boards functions like a contrac,t
agency provider. All of the consumer, service, static capacity, revenue, eXp'ense, and cost
information for the whole program is maintained separately and is not included in the contract,
contract revision(s), reports (CARS), and CCS 3 extracts of the Board operating the program.
The partiCipating Boards, including the Board operating the regional program, include only the
parts of this information that apply to their consumers in their contracts, contract revisioris,
reports, and extracts. The regional program is licensed by the Department, when applicable,
and develops and maintains individualized services plans (ISPs) for consumers that it serves.
3. Each participating Board admits consumers receiving services from the regional program to the
applicable program area (all MH, MR, or SA services) for the services provided by the regional
program. The services provided by the regional program are listed in the ISPs maintained by
the participating Boards for these consumers. When consumers complete receiving all
services from the regional program, they are discharged from the applicable program area by
the participating Board, unless they continue to receive other services in that program area
from that participating Board. The regional program provides appropriate information about the
services provided and other clinical information to the Board who referred the consumer to the
regional program, just as any contract agency provider would provide such information to the
contracting Board.
4. Each participating Board, including the Board operating the regional program, ensures that the
appropriate information about its consumers and their services is entered into its information
system, so that the information can be extracted by the CCS 3 and reported iri the CCS 3
submissions and applicable CARS reports for that participating ~oard.
5. Regional programs should receive the same state funding increases as regular Board grant-
funded activities, such as the salary increases for community services provided from time to
time by the General Assembly in the Appropriation Act.
The Laurels, operated by Cumberland Mountain Community Services, is an example of this model.
55.
05-31-2007
FY 2008 Community Services Performance Contract
3. Fiscal Agent Board-Funded Regional Program Model,
1. One Board receives state and sometimes other funds from the Department and acts as the
fiscal agent for a regional program, such as a reinvestment or restructuring project. The
Department disburses the regional allocation to the fiscal agent Board on behalf of all Boards
participating in the regional program.
2. The fiscal agent Board, in collaboration with the other participating Boards, develops agreed-
upon procedures that describe how the Boards implement the regional program and jointly
manage the use of these funds on a regional basis. the procedures also establish and
describe how unused funds can be reallocated among the participating Boards to ensure the
greatest possible utilization of the funds. These procedures should be documented, preferably
in an Exhibit D or less preferably in a regional memorandum of agreement (MOA).
3. The fiscal agent Board receives the semi-monthly payments of funds from the Department for
the regional program. The fiscal agent Board disburses the regional program funds to
individual Boards, including itself when applicable, in accordance with the procedures in
paragraph 2. The fiscal agent Board displays such disbursements on a Transfer In/Out line of
the applicable revenue page in its final performance contract revision and its reports. The other
Boards receiving the transferred funds show the receipt of these funds on the same line.
Boards provide more detailed information about these transfers on the Financial Comments
pages of contract revisions and reports.
4. Each Board implementing a regional program accounts for and reports the revenues and
expenses associated with that program in its final performance contract revision and CARS
reports. The fiscal agent Board displays the total amount of the allocation as a revenue and all
Transfers Out in its CARS reports, but it only displays in its reports the expenses for any
regional program that it implements.
5. As an alternative. to paragraphs 1 through 4 for some kinds of programs, such as a Regional
Discharge Assistance Project, and with the concurrence of the Department, instead of one
Board acting as a fiscal agent, all BQards participating in that program establish a regional
mechanism for managing the use of the regional program funds. The Boards decide through
this regional management mechanism how the total amount of funds for the program should be
allocated among them on some logical basis (e.g., approved regional discharge assistance
project ISPs). The region informs the Department of the allocations, and the Department
adjusts the allocation of each participating Board and disburses these allocations directly to the
participating Boards. Those Boards agree to monitor and adjust allocations among themselves
during the fiscal year through this regional management mechanism to ensure the complete
utilization of these regional program funds, in accordance with procedures in paragraph 2.
6. Each Board implementing a regional program ensures that appropriate information about its
consumers and their services is entered into its information system, so that the CCS 3 can
extract the information and' report it in the CCS 3 submissions and applicable CARS reports.
7. Regional programs should receive the same state funding increases as regular Board grant-
funded activities, such as the salary increases for community services provided from time to
time by the General Assembly in the Appropriation Act.
Most reinvestment and restructuring projects and programs are examples of this model. A
variation of this model, the Fiscal Agent Board-Funded Regional Local Inpatient pas Program
Model, can be used to implement and manage regional local acute psychiatric inpatient bed
purchases.
56.

,
FY 2008 Community Services Performance Contract
3.a. Fiscal Agent Board-Funded Regional Local'lnpatiimt POS Program Model
1. One Board agrees to act as the fiscal agent for the regional Local Inpatient Purchase of
Services (L1POS) program. The Department disburses the regional L1POS allocation to the
fiscal agent Board on behalf of all of the Boards participating in theregional L1POS program.
2. The fiscal agent Board, in collaboration with all of the participating Boards and with consultation
from the Department, develops procedures that describe how the Boards will implement the
regional L1POS program and jointly' manage the use of these funds on a regional basis. The
procedures include regional utilization management mechanisms, such as regional
authorization committees (RACs) and regional procurements of beds through contracts with
private providers, Such contracts may reserve blocks of beds for use by the region or
purchase beds or bed days on an as available basis. The procedures also establish and
describe how unused funds can be reallocated among the participating Boards to ensure the
greatest possible utilization of the funds. These procedures should be documented, preferably
in an Exhibit D or less preferably in a regional memorandum of agreement (MOA).
3. The fiscal agent Board receives the semi-monthly payments of funds from the Department for
the regional L1POS program. The fiscal agent Board disburses regional L1POS funds to
individual Boards or uses such funds itself to pay for the costs of local inpatient hospitalizations
that have been approved by a regional ,review and authorization body established by and
described in the procedures in paragraph 2. The fiscal agent Board displays such
disbursementson'a Transfer In/Out line of the Mental Health Revenue page in its final
performance contract revision and reports, and the Board receiving the transferred funds
shows the receipt of these funds on the same line. Boards provide more detailed information
about these transfers on the Financial Comments page of contract revisions and reports.
4. The Board that purchases local inpatient services accounts for and reports the revenues and
expenses associated with its L1POS in its final performance contraCt revision and CARS
reports. The fiscal agent Board displays the total amount of the allocation as a revenue and all
Transfers Out in its CARS reports, but it displays in its reports only the expenses for its own
L1POS.
5. The Board that purchases the local inpatient services ensures that appropriate information
about consumers, services, and cO.sts is entered into its management information system, so
that the CCS 3 can extract the information and report it in the CCS 3 submissions and
applicable CARS reports.
6. Regional programs should receive the same state funding increases as regular Board grant-
funded activities, such as the salary increases for community services provided from time to
time by the General Assembly in the Appropriation Act.
The Region 4'Acute Care Project and the Local Inpatient Purchases of Services programs are
examples of this model. ,.

FY 2008 Community Services Performance Contract
4. Fiscal Agent Board-Funded Contract Agency Regional Progra~m Model
1. One Board receives state and sometimes other funds from the Department and acts as the
fiscal agent for a regional program that is contracted by this fiscal agent Board to a public or
private agency. The Department disburses the regional allocation to the fiscal agent Board on
behalf of all Boards participating in the contracted regional program.
2. The fiscal agent Board contracts with and provides set monthly payments to a regional program
provided by a public or private contract agency on behalf of all of the Boards participating in this
regional program. The contract may purchase a pre-set amount of specified services from the
contract agency and pay the agency a predetermined cost, whether or not the participating
Boards use the services.
3. Each participating Board referring one of its consumers to this contracted regional program
admits the consumer, enrolls him in the regional program service, and refers him to the contract
agency. The contract agency provides information to the referring (case management) Board,
and that Board maintains information about the consumer and the service units in its information
system, where the CCS 3 can extract the information.
4. The fiscal agent Board provides program cost information to each referring Board, based on its
use of the regional program, and the referring Board enters this information in the cost column
of the program services form (pages AP-1 through AP-3) but does not ~nter any revenue or
expenditure information in its performance contract report (CARS). The fiscal agent Board
enters the revenue and expenditure information associated with the regional program on the
financial forms in its performance contract report, but it enters consumer, service, and cost
information on the program services form only for the consumers that it referred to the regional
program. Each Board will explain the differences between the financial and program service
forms in its performance contract report on the Financial Comments page. The Department will
reconcile the differences among the participating Boards' reports using these comments.
Because of the difficulty in calculating the program cost information for each participating Board,
program cost information would only need to be included in end of the fiscal year performance
contract (CARS) reports.
5. All of the participating Boards, to the extent practicable, determine individual Board allocations
of the state and sometimes other funds received from the Department, based on service
utilization or an agreed-upon formula.
6. Regional programs should receive the same state funding increases as regular Board grant-
funded activities, such as the salary increases for community services provided from time to
time by the General Assembly in the Appropriation Act.
The crisis stabilization program operated by Rubicon in Region 4 is an example of this model. The
main features of this model could be used to reflect services that one Board purchases from
another Board. However, as the Regional Program Definition at the beginning of this exhibit notes,
this individual Board program would not be a regional program. Unlike the model described above,
both Boards would input the applicable consumer, service, and financial information, which would
then be extracted by the CCS 3.
This model also could be adapted by a region to handle its L1POS services, if one Board acts as
the fiscal agent and pays all of the L1POS providers. This adaptation should be negotiated with the
Department by the participating Boards and must reflected in a description of the modified model
attached to each Board's contract.

Dear Mayor Harris and Members of City Council:
Subject: 2007-08 CDBG/HOME "New
Gilmer" Agreement with Blue
Ridge Housing Development
Corp. (BRHDC)
Background:
Since 1996, BRHDC has conducted numerous housing programs for the City using
Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and HOME Investment Partnerships
Program (HOME) funds. As part of the City's revitalization efforts in Gainsboro,
BRHDC has been the agency primarily tasked with undertaking rehabilitation and
new construction of housing for homeownership. The initial goal was to develop
up to twelve single-family homes. However, BRHDC was able to acquire several
parcels on Gilmer Avenue that were not initially available, providing an opportunity
to develop at least five additional homes, all on this key street. Council
authorized funding for this additional housing development by Resolution No.
37777-051407, which approved the City's 2007-2008 Consolidated Plan Annual
Update, and by Resolution No. 37803-061807 and Ordinance No. 37804-061807,
which accepted and appropriated the annual CDBG and HOME funding.
Considerations:
A subgrant agreement, similar in form and content to the attachment to this
Council Letter, outlines the activities to be undertaken by BRHDC. In order to
undertake the project, City Council's authorization is needed for the City Manager
Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council
September 17, 2007
Page 2
to execute the subgrant agreement with BRHDC.
Recommended Action:
Authorize the City Manager to execute the 2007-2008 CDBG/HOME subgrant
Agreement with BRHDC, similar in form and content to the draft attached to this
report, and approved as to form by the City Attorney.
Respectfully submitted,

this Agreement. (See also Attachment C.)
e. Conditions for religious organizations - The Subgrantee shall not grant or loan any HOME or CDBG
funds to primarily religious organizations for any activity including secular activities. In addition,
funds may not be used to rehabilitate or construct housing owned by primarily religious organizations
or to assist primarily religious organizations in acquiring housing. In particular, there shall be no
religious or membership criteria for tenants or buyers of any HOME- or CDBG-assisted properties.
f. Labor standards - As presently structured, the programs included under this Agreement are not
considered subject to federal Labor Standards, including prevailing (Davis-Bacon) wage rates for

assisted with HOME funds or more than 7 units are assisted with a combination of CDBG and
HOME funds.
g. Environmental standards - In accordance with 24 CFR 85.36, 92.352 and 570.604, the activities

Grantee has performed the tiered review necessary to initiate the preliminary program activities;
however, no CDBG funds may be expended for a given property prior to the Subgrantee's completing
its individual property review, any required remedial actions and required Subgrantee environmental
checklist, which must include all compliance categories specified by HUD and the Grantee. Where
acquisition of property is authorized, the Subgrantee will conduct, directly or through qualified
entities, at minimum an "environmental transaction screen," which consists of a review of the
property's history and a site visit to determine the condition of the property. All property acquisitions
shall be contingent upon satisfactory results of the screen, and, where dictated by the screen, further
environmental phases. All specifications for proposed housing rehabilitation under this Agreement
Page 7 of 21
shall be submitted to the Grantee's Department of Neighborhood Services for review as to compliance
with Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act. These specifications shall also be
reviewed by the Grantee's Environmental Administrator to determine whether the potential for
disturbing lead and other hazardous materials, such as asbestos, has been adequately taken into
account. The Subgrantee agrees to adjust work specifications or activities in such manner as may be
requested by the Grantee to ensure compliance with environmental requirements. The results of the
historic and other environmental review activities shall be reflected in the Subgrantee's environmental
checklist for the unit and/or project site(s).
h. Displacement and relocation -In accordance with 24 CFR 92.353 and 570.606, the Subgrantee shall
take all reasonable steps to minimize displacement as a result of the activities described in section I.
Furthermore, section I of this Agreement prohibits acquisition of any property which is occupied or
would be occupied by legal tenants after the initial acquisition contact with the owner.
Notwithstanding this prohibition, any persons displaced as a result of the activities under this
Agreement shall be provided relocation assistance to the extent permitted and required under
applicable regulations.
1. Emplovment and contracting opportunities - In accordance with 24 CFR 92.350 and 570.607, the
activities under this Agreement are subject to the requirements of Executive Order 11246, as
amended, and Section 3 of the Housing and Urban Development Act of 1968. The former prohibits
discrimination on federally-assisted construction contracts and requires contractors to take affirmative

Dear Mayor Harris and Members of City Council:
Subject: 2007-2008 CDBG Agreement
with Total Action Against
Poverty in the Roanoke Valley,
Inc. (TAP)
Background:
Since 1965, Total Action Against Poverty in the Roanoke Valley, Inc. (TAP), has
developed and executed programs that promote adequate housing, employment,
health and nutrition, and education for the citizens of Roanoke and surrounding
areas. To date, TAP's Emergency Home Repair program has performed emergency
home repairs for approximately 123 needy citizens of Roanoke. On May 14, 2007,
City Council authorized TAP to conduct housing activities in our community by
Resolution No. 37777-051407, which approved the City's 2007-2008 Action Plan
Consolidated Plan for submission to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban
Development (HUD). City Council accepted the 2007-2008 CDBG funds on June
18, 2007, by Budget Ordinance No. 37804-061807 and Resolution No. 37803-
061807. By letter dated July 12, 2007, HUD approved the City's five-year
Consolidated Plan and its third year action plan.
Considerations:
In order that TAP may conduct its approved 2007-2008 housing activities, City
Council's authorization is needed to execute a subgrant agreement. Necessary
CDBG funding is available in the account listed in the draft Agreement included
Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council
September 17, 2007

with this report. A total of $100,000.00 is being provided to TAP to provide
limited and emergency repairs to 15 homes city-wide, with the exception of the
Gainsboro and Gilmer neighborhoods, which are assisted through an agreement
with the Roanoke Redevelopment and Housing Authority. The agreement would
be effective from July 1, 2007, until June 30, 2008.
Recommended Action:
Authorize the City Manager to execute the 2007-2008 CDBG subgrant Agreement
with Total Action Against Poverty in the Roanoke Valley, Inc., similar in form and
content to the draft attached to this report, such agreement to be approved as to
form by the City Attorney.

community fitness center for the general public during non-school hours. The
City provides the cardiovascular and strength/flexibility equipment for the
fitness room and pays a pro rated share of utilities and custodial service as
mutually agreed on Saturdays and Sundays to the School Board. The terms of
this Agreement shall be from October 1, 2007 until September 30, 2008 and
may be extended for four (4) additional one-year terms. Additional details of

Dear Mayor Harris and Members of City Council:
Subject: Norfolk Southern Right of Entry for
Roanoke River Flood Reduction -
Phase 2 Topographic Survey
Background:
City staff and the U.S. Army Corp of Engineers (USACE) are working on benchcut
and greenway trail designs for the Roanoke River Flood Reduction - Phase 2.
Phase 2 construction starts in Hannah Court and proceeds upstream to the
Salem border. The Norfolk Southern Railroad owns a large portion of the Phase
2 land targeted for construction. The USACE staff is seeking access to Norfolk
Southern property to perform topographic survey studies in the areas shown on
the attached Exhibit A. Before the surveyors are granted permission on Norfolk
Southern property, the City must execute the attached right of entry.
The right of entry requires the City to indemnify and hold harmless Norfolk
Southern against all claims arising from the City's exercise of the right of entry.
Norfolk Southern will not waive this requirement. Council authority is required
before the agreement may be executed because agreeing to indemnify and hold
Norfolk Southern harmless from such claims is a waiver of the City's sovereign
immunity.
Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council

Dear Mayor Harris and Members of City Council:
The City is planning several Arts Festival events to be held at the Jefferson
Center on Thursday, October 4th (Ramsey Lewis Trio), Saturday, October 6th
(Southwest Virginia Ballet) and Sunday, October 7th (Little Feat). The City is also
sponsoring Renovate Roanoke, An Old Home Renovation Fair on Saturday,
October 20, 2007. The Jefferson Center requires that the City execute an
agreement in order to use its facility. This agreement contains a provision
which requires that the City agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Jefferson
Center, and to defend it, in the event that anyone is injured or anything is
damaged during the City's use of the premises.
Only City Council can waive the City's sovereign immunity and agree to such
provisions. The Jefferson Center has declined to delete these indemnification
provisions in these two use agreements.
A resolution is attached which authorizes a waiver of the City's sovereign
immunity and authorizes the City Manager to execute both of these
agreements, such agreements to be approved as to form by the City Attorney.
Staff recommend City Council authorization to waive sovereign immunity.
Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council
September 17, 2007

Dear Mayor Harris and Members of City Council:
Subject:
Supplemental Report pertaining to the request from Echo
Sentinel Group, LLC, Joseph Lokhamp, Unified Human
Services Transportation Systems, Inc" and Curtis Andrews,
to permanently vacate, discontinue and close 31st Street,
NW., between Baker Avenue, NW" and Breckenridge
Avenue, N.W.; a portion of Breckenridge Avenue, N.W., from
a point beginning at the southwestern boundary of property
bearing Official Tax No. 2510112 and running in an easterly
direction to its intersection with 31st Street, N.W.; and a 15'
wide alley running in an easterly direction from a parcel
bearing Official Tax No, 2510104 to its terminus at 31st
Street, N,W.
Recommendation:
Planning Commission public hearing was held on Thursday, July 19, 2007. Bya
vote of 5-0 (Messrs. Chrisman and Williams absent), the Commission
recommended that City Council approve the applicants' request and vacate the
portions of rights-of-way and alley as requested, subject to the conditions below
and at a sale price of $19,000. Staff has undertaken additional review of the
circumstances affecting the value of this vacated right-of-way and has made a
supplemental recommendation to the Planning Commission action.
The applicant expressed concern during the City Planning Commission hearing
about the condition of the unimproved right-of-way of 31st Street, NW., and cited
numerous debris on the site that would require removal and cleanup,
Members of City Council
Page 2
September 17, 2007
Subsequent to the Planning Commission action, the applicant provided an
estimate from Duz-AII of Roanoke for the cleanup in the amount of $6500 -
$7500. It was determined that the cost of cleaning up this property to comply
with the City's property maintenance code would roughly equal the value of the
recommended sale price for 31st Street, N,W, Based on this, the administration
recommends that the applicant not be charged for the portion of 31st Street,
NW., given his ultimate responsibility for cleanup when this site is developed.
City Council continued this request in its public hearing on August 20,2007, due
to the applicant's disagreement with staff's supplemental recommendation, which
recommended a sale price of $12,000. Staff has revised the recommended sale
price based solely on the current assessments of the adjoining properties without
regard for any contributory value added by the rights-of-way.
The closure should be subject to the conditions listed below and a sale price of
$4,525 is based on a rate of $0.25 per square foot for the alley and portion of
Breckenridge Avenue, N.W. Due to the existence of tires and other debris in the
alley and portion of Breckenridge Avenue, NW., if the applicant incurs costs in
cleaning up these properties, all or a portion of the sale price may be relieved as
noted below:
A. The applicant shall remove all tires and debris from the subject
rights-of-way and provide a receipt for services from a contractor
that the rights-of-way have been cleared of tires and other debris,
If the City manager deems said receipt and evidence of cleaning
sufficient and acceptable, the amount of the receipt will be
deducted from the sale price of $4,525. If such receipt exceeds
$4,525, the applicant will not be required to pay for the subject
rights-of- way. The applicant must provide such documentation or
pay for the subject rights-of-way and receive approval of such
clean-up, prior to approval of a subdivision plat.
B. The applicant shall submit a subdivision plat to the Agent for the
Planning Commission, receive all required approvals of, and record
the plat with the Clerk of the Circuit Court for the City of Roanoke.
Said plat shall combine all properties which would otherwise
dispose of the land within the right of way to be vacated in a
manner consistent with law, and retain appropriate easements for
the installation and maintenance of any and all existing utilities that
may be located within the right-of-way, including the right of ingress
and egress,
C, Upon meeting all other conditions to the granting of the application,
the applicant shall deliver a certified copy of this ordinance for
recordation to the Clerk of the Circuit Court of Roanoke, Virginia,
indexing the same in the name of the City of Roanoke, Virginia, as
Members of City Council

Grantor, and in the name of the applicant, and the names of any
other parties in interest who may so request, as Grantees. The
applicant shall pay such fees and charges as are required by the
Clerk to effect such recordation,
D, Upon recording a certified copy of this ordinance with the Clerk of
the Circuit Court of the City of Roanoke, Virginia, the applicant shall
file with the Engineer for the City of Roanoke, Virginia, the Clerk's
receipt, demonstrating that such recordation has occurred.
E, If the above conditions have not been met within a period of one
year from the date of adoption of this ordinance, then said
ordinance shall be null and void with no further action by City
Council being necessary,

portions of rights-of-way and alley as requested, subject to the conditions below
(A-D) and at a sale price of $19,000.
The applicant expressed concern during the City Planning Commission hearing
about the condition of the unimproved right-of-way of 31st Street, NW, and said
. there was debris on the site that wouh;l require removal and cleanup.
Subsequent to the Planning Commissio'n action, the applicant provided an
estimate, in the amount of $6500-$7500, from Duz-AII of Roanoke for cleanup.
It was determined that the cost of cleaning up this property to comply with the
City's property maintenance code would roughly equal the value of the
recommended sale price for 31st St, N.W. Based on this condition, staff reviewed
the circumstances affecting the value of this vacated right-of-way and made a

supplemental recommendation to the Planning Commission action to vacate the
rights-of-way at a cost of $12,000.
City Council continued this request at its public hearing on August 20,
2007, due to the applicants' disagreement with staff's supplemental
recommendation, Staff has revised the recommended sale price based solely on
the current assessments of the adjoining properties without regard for any
contributory value added by the rights-of-way.
The closure should be subject to the conditions listed below and a sale
price of $4,525 based on a rate of $,25 per square foot for the alley and portion
of Breckenridge Avenue, N.W.:
A. The applicant shall submit a subdivision plat to the Agent for the
Planning Commission, receive all required approvals of, and
record the plat with the Clerk of the Circuit Court for the City of
Roanoke. Said plat shall combine all properties which would
otherwise dispose of the land within the right of way to be
vacated in a manner consistent with law, and retain appropriate
easements for the installation and maintenance of any and all
existing utilities that may be located within the right-of-way,
including the right of ingress and egress,
B. Upon meeting all other conditions to the granting of the
application, the applicant shall deliver a certified copy of this
ordinance for recordation to the Clerk of the Circuit Court of
Roanoke, Virginia, indexing the same in the name of the City of
Roanoke, Virginia, as Grantor, and in the name of the Petitioner,
and the names of any other parties in interest who may so
request, as Grantees. The applicant shall pay such fees and
charges as are required by the Clerk to effect such recordation.
C. Upon recording a certified copy of this ordinance with the Clerk
of the Circuit Court of the City of Roanoke, Virginia, the
applicant shall file with the Engineer for the City of Roanoke,
Virginia, the Clerk's receipt, demonstrating that such recordation
has occurred.
D. If the above conditions have not been met within a period of one
year from the date of adoption of this ordinance, then said
ordinance shall be null and void with no further action by City
Council being necessary.

The applicant stated that he did not agree with the recommended sale price and
noted that the property is littered with tires and other debris, which would require
a substantial investment to clean up. Mr. Scholz asked staff to confirm the
applicant's assertion that the property needed to be cleaned up, Staff said that
from the south side of 31 st Street a number of tires and other debris was visible
on the property, but couldn't determine the condition of most of the property due
to vegetative growth. Mr. Townsend offered that the request could be tabled to
allow the City's Environmental Administrator to evaluate the site as was done in
the Echo Sentinel's previous request to vacate a portion of Breckenridge Avenue,
N,W. Mr, Rife stated that determining the assessed value was out of his area of
expertise. He said he would be comfortable voting on the request as is, and that
further analysis could be conducted prior to the City Council meeting.

to permanently vacate, discontinue and close 31st Street,
N,W" between Baker Avenue, N.W., and Breckenridge
Avenue, N.W.; a portion of Breckenridge Avenue, N.W.. from
a point beginning at the southwestern boundary of property
bearing Official Tax No, 2510112 and running in an easterly
direction to its intersection with 3151 Street, N W,; and a 15'
wide alley running in an easterly direction from a parcel
bearing Official Tax No, 2510104 to its terminus at 31st
Street, NW.
Recommendation:
Planning Commission public hearing was held on Thursday, July 19, 2007. Bya
vote of 5-0 (Messrs, Chrisman and Williams absent), the Commission
recommended that City Council approve the applicants' request and vacate the
portions of rights-of-way and alley as requested, subject to the conditions below
(A-D) and at a sale price of $19,000. Staff has undertaken additional review of
the circumstances affecting the value of this vacated right-of-way and has made
a supplemental recommendation to the Planning Commission action.
The applicant expressed concern during the City Planning Commission hearing
about the condition of the unimproved right-of-way of 31st Street, N.W., and cited
numerous debris on the site that would require removal and cleanup,
Subsequent to the Planning Commission action, the applicant provided an
estimate from Duz-AII of Roanoke for the cleanup in the amount of $6500 -
$7500, It was determined that the cost of cleaning up this property to comply

August 20, 2007
with the City's property maintenance code would roughly equal the value of the
recommended sale price for 31st Street, N.W. Based on this, the administration
recommends that the applicant not be charged for the portion of 31 st Street,
NW., given his ultimate responsibility for cleanup when this site is developed.
The closure should be subject to the conditions listed below and a sale price of
$12,000, at a rate of approximately $,66 per square foot for the alley and portion
of Breckenridge Avenue, N.W.
A. The applicant shall submit a subdivision plat to the Agent for the
Planning Commission, receive all required approvals of, and
record the plat with the Clerk of the Circuit Court for the City of
Roanoke. Said plat shall combine all properties which would
otherwise dispose of the land within the right of way to be
vacated in a manner consistent with law, and retain appropriate
easements for the installation and maintenance of any and all
existing utilities that may be located within the right-of-way,
including the right of ingress and egress.
B. Upon meeting all other conditions to the granting of the
application, the applicant shall deliver a certified copy of this
ordinance for recordation to the Clerk of the Circuit Court of
Roanoke, Virginia, indexing the same in the name of the City of
Roanoke, Virginia, as Grantor, and in the name of the Petitioner,
and the names of any other parties in interest who may so
request, as Grantees. The applicant shall pay such fees and
charges as are required by the Clerk to effect such recordation,
C. Upon recording a certified copy of this ordinance with the Clerk
of the Circuit Court of the City of Roanoke, Virginia, the
applicant shall file with the Engineer for the City of Roanoke,
Virginia, the Clerk's receipt, demonstrating that such recordation
has occurred.
D. If the above conditions have not been met within a period of one
year from the date of adoption of this ordinance, then said
ordinance shall be null and void with no further action by City
Council being necessary.

The Honorable C. Nelson Harris, Mayor
City of Roanoke
215 Church Ave" S,W.
Noel C. Taylor Municipal Building, Room 452
Roanoke, Virginia 24011
Dear Mayor Harris:
During better times, Henry Street was a vibrant corridor, the hub of minority small business development, flush
with eateries and world class entertainment venues. This minority business corridor, like many others across
-~ the county, experienced a decline due to shifting economic conditions and changes in the socio-political
'Climate, ultimately rendering the street in a state of blight and abandonment.
Today, however, this historic street is experiencing a revival, a new life. The impact of major renovation
projects like 8 Jefferson Place, the Higher Education Center, the Dumas Center for Cultural and Artistic
Development, the creation of a culinary school as well as the memorial tribute to Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.,
are all coming together to create a synergy that has created a bright future while still celebrating the past
accomplishments of the many minority business and professional pioneers who made Henry Street a thriving
commercial and entertainment center.
For these reasons, we respectfully request that the City Council officially change the name of First Street, back
to its original name of Henry Street. We have been in contact with representatives of the Redevelopment
Housing Authority and the Higher Education Center (the two largest land owners), and the tenants of the Dumas
Center, all of whom enthusiastically support this request.
In addition, we have petitions from more than two hundred residents of the City supporting the reclaiming of
the narne "Helh7 Street" for L'lls historic conidor. On behalf oft.1-:ese citizens' as well as the major land owners
we are making this request.' .
As always, we appreciate the support that we have received from the City Council and the administration on
similar community improvement initiatives. Please let me know if there is anything else that we need to do to
assist you with your decision making process,
Sincerely, )

Roanoke City Market Area Advisory Committee
REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL
9/17/07
,.
,
Introduction
The goals of the City Market Area Advisory Committee were to determine Committee
consensus about key goals and principles that should guide changes to the City Markel area, to
identify priority ideas for improvements to the area, and to determine how to work together
productively in implementing (hose agreements as well as address future issues. The Committee
also sought community input at each of its three meetings on June 5, June 26, and July 24,
Many thoughtful and creative ideas were offered and considered. The Committee reached
consensus on key goals and principles to guide future changes within the Market Area. The

Priority ideas
Ideas that the Committee agreed should have immediate priority are in boxes.
. Increase cleanliness and attractiveness to make the Market area more customer friendly.
The City should take the lead in coordinating the examination and implementation of
these activities,
o Improve trash pickup, increase frequency, add recycling containers and
additional trash cans, adapt trash pickup to needs of various users
o Clean sidewalks daily
o Address ginkgo trees (replace offending trees)
o Increase police / security presence
o Address loitering
o Take care of physical day-today maintenance (e.g, swaying light posts)
. Upgrade vendor facilities.
Downtown Roanoke Incorporated should take the lead in coordinating the examination
and implementation of these activities.
o Investigate and determine how to provide vendors access to phone lines for
charge card transactions; low-cost, may be feasible with improved wireless -
o Use adaptable tables (e,g., Ray Walter concept)
o Incorporate expanded market concept (moved stalls, redesigned table, increased
sidewalk space per Gary Crowder concept)
o Preserve awnings
o Consider ceiling fans for cooling, radiant heat for winter-
o Provide places for display and holding sold items with secure locks -
o Extend tables up Market Street on Saturdays
. Upgrade general facilities,
The City should take the lead in coordinating the examination and implementation of
these activities.
o Add/enhance public restrooms, especially in the City Market Building; also,
consider adding restrooms in parking garage
o Use the opportunity provided by the need for re-paving to undertake improved
street and sidewalks. Ideas include stamped pavement for identity, pedes Irian-
friendly ground treatments (such as Buy-A-Brick program for name or stamped
design [consider challenge of cleaning]). Address sidewalks - cracked, weeds,
slip hazards. Ensure handicapped access with curb cuts and other features,
Restripe or raise crosswalks to eliminate slip hazard and calm traffic (consider
when repaving Campbell)
o Upgrade signage for disabled users
o Increase visibility of Center in the Square and other storefronts
2
. Provide customer and vendor parking and access.
Downtown Roanoke Incorporated should take the lead in coordinating the examination
and implementation of these activities,
o Continue adjacent vendor parking
o Provide bike racks
o Consider vendor parking permits to manage non-vendor parking
o Reduce speed of through traffic
o Consider closing Market Square to traffic on a regular schedule (e.g" for
Saturday Market 10-2) or as needed for special events
o Balance any reduction in local parking with more activities/even<s
o Link the Market area to greenway systems (complete Lick Run greenway
between railroad tracks and Elmwood Park)
. Attract a variety of customers and visitors, including younger generation.
Downtown Roanoke Incorporated should take the lead in coordinating the examination
and implementation of these activities,
o Expand current managemen< to night time, 24/7 [ownership/management
currently unclear for evening events 1
o Provide a variety of attractive uses during special events and times when the
Market is closed
o Expand evening use and special events (e.g., entertainment, civic events,
children's events, relocate First Fridays, climbing wall in parking garage)
o Survey customers; users, potential users to identify additional uses for more
groups
o Get information to public
Increase use of Market website - www.roanokefarmersmarket.com
Use radio for advertisements and live broadcasts from Market events
[Media currently used by Downtown Roanoke, Inc.: TV ads, e-mail
newsletters to Market users and residents, print ads 1
Improve signage for Market, parking, and access - billboards on 1-81
as well as street signage
o Target user groups, e,g., large employers such as Advance Auto Parts
o Form expert committee of marketers to assist with efforts
Implementation and continuin2 discussion
The Committee proposes that it remain in place to coordinate and facilitate the examination and
implementation of the various priority activities, and to ensure that future actions of stakeholder
groups are consistent with the goals and core principles identified by the Committee. The
following outlines the future composition of the committee and generally highlights the
operational aspects of the Committee as it moves forward.
· Composition: The Committee's composition by the five stakeholder groups
previously identified is recommended to remain (City, DRI,
Merchants/Restaurateurs, Farmers/V endors, and Center in the Square). The
Committee recommends that 2 additional members representing a sixth
3
stakeholder group, citizen/customer stakeholders, be added. These two
additional members would be identified upon a consensus selection by the
Committee.
. Leadership: The Committee would continue to operate under 'joint' chairs
representing the City and Downtown Roanoke, Inc. Role of the chairmen to
ensure that meetings are held regularly, agendas are prepared, and that work
program items are moved forward by the lead parties for each work program area,
. Frequency of Meeting: Meeting schedule is proposed for monthly at the outset,
with adjustments to be made based upon work experience and preference of
Committee members. Committee meetings would remain open to the public,
Status / progress reports of the Committee would be posted on both City and
Downtown Roanoke, Inc. websites to ensure maximum exposure to stakeholders
and other interested parties.
. Term of the Committee: The Committee anticipates remaining in place through
the end of Calendar Year 2008. At that point the Committee recommends
evaluation of work program task status, identification of issues of common
interest remaining unresolved, and need for continuing committee structure to
address those issues,
. Role of the Committee:
o Communication Among Stakeholders
o Processing !Evaluation of Ideas
o Collaboration / Participation on Issues and Opportunities
. Accountability: The Committee would provide periodic reports to the City
administration and City Council as well as to the groups and organizations
represented on the Committee regarding the priority ideas/work program items
contained in the initial report.

WATER AUTHORITY
The Water Operations Division of the Western Virginia Water Authority has continued to
improve the operation and distribution of quality water services to our customers while
making significant advances in the areas of safety and technology.
Water Treatment Improvements
. Cross-training of operators at our treatment facilities has optimized
operations and scheduling
. Implementation by Carvins Cove staff of systems recommended as part of the
treatability study including:
. Installation of an oxygenation system for the
Carvins Cove reservoir has increased the
dissolved oxygen concentration at the bottom
of the reservoir, resulting in improved water
quality
. Installation of a chlorine dioxide feed system
at Carvins Cove water treatment facility to
oxidize dissolved organic compounds, as
well as iron and manganese, We are now
consistently well under the limits set by the regulations for THMs and
HAASs.
. Conversion of the coagulant feed system at Carvins Cove treatment facility from
alum to ferric sulfate to prevent possible pitting of copper lines in some
situations
. Installation of electric actuators on the raw water flow
at the Carvins Cove treatment facility to facilitate the
starting and stopping of facility's operations
. Modification of hours at the Falling Creek water
treatment plant to mc;>re effectively match system
demand with water production rates
. Evaiuation of existing processes and equipment at the Falling Creek water
treatment plant in order to develop recommendations for modernization of the
treatment technology to improve plant operation
. Installation of Closed Circuit TV surveillance systems at Spring Hollow and
Carvins Cove treatment facilities
. A digital video management and
surveillance system was installed
at the Carvins Cove Water
Treatment Facility. The system
provides a higher degree of
security at the Carvins Cove dam
and addresses some of the
recommendations contained in the
EPA vulnerability assessment
. As of September 2007, staff at Carvins Cove can also monitor Spring
Hollow 24-hours-a-day. Cameras will soon be installed at Crystal Spring
and Falling Creek
Protection of the Carvins Cove Watershed
. In 2006, approximately SO acres, which are partially situated in the
Carvins Cove drainageshed and located on the southwest flank of Tinker
Mountain, were purchased by the Water Authority to protect the Carvins
Cove Watershed
.
Carvins Cove Management Plan
. WVWA is working in conjunction with a City of
Roanoke Council appointed committee to develop
a land management plan for Carvins Cove. This
management plan will help determine current and
future recreational usage and activities which will
affect the land surrounding Carvins Cove reservoir
Falling Creek Dam Rehabilitation
. The 100-year old dam is
currently operating under a
conditional permit due to an
inadequate spillway, An
engineering firm was selected
and a design contract was
signed in August of 2007. Design is expected to be completed by the
end of 2007, and construction is slated for Spring of
2008
.
.
>
. Recommendations call for the rehabilitated dam to
utilize a labyrinth weir spillway
. Reservoir Management
. Staff has analyzed historical data for each of the reservoirs. Based upon
historical rainfall, reservoir levels during the calendar year and
consumption, graphs have been generated to project critical levels in the
near future. These graphs are being used to guide our reservoir
management.

. Consolidation of Carvins Cove and Spring Hollow Laboratory Facilities
. During December 2005, the Carvins
Cove and Spring Hollow laboratory
operations were consolidated at the
Spring Hollow water treatment facility,
providing more efficient utilization of
space and personnel. The
resulting additional space at
Carvins Cove allowed for a
conference room to be created
Water Distribution Improvements
. Staff has evaluated the water system to optimize water service areas with
respect to flow delivery capabilities and pressure
. Approximately 450 homes in the Raleigh Court area now have vastly
improved water pressure. This area has historically struggled with low
pressure
. Staff is looking at establishing a new pressure zone within the
Shenandoah Avenue/Salem Turnpike corridor between 30th Street and
the Salem city limits
. The Harrison Area Water Line Replacement Project replaced 2" galvanized
water line with 6" water line. Some residents indicated that they have
been suffering with low water pressure and volume for as long as 17
years, and that they are very pleased with the improvement to their water
service. City of Roanoke pavement overlay pians expanded this project
to include portions of 7th, 8th and 10th Streets, Madison. Harrison, and
McDowell Avenues
. Cast Iron, 12" Water Line Replacement Program
. Authority staff has been investigating the
more serious water main breaks associated
with 1950's era 12-inch cast iron pipe
. Replacement projects include:
. Orange Avenue between 13th Street
and Gus Nicks Boulevard
. Hollins Road between Old Hollins
Road and Mason Mill Road
. 36th Street between Shenandoah and Salem
. Development of a comprehensive hydraulic water system model
. Staff has been working with Draper-Aden Associates of Blacksburg for
approximately two years to develop a hydrauiic water system model.
This model is being used as a planning tool to identify infrastructure
needs to be included in the capital improvements program
. Complet;on of North Water Transmission Line
. The North Water Transmission Line was
completed during the spring of 2007. This
significant capital improvement provides a
large diameter water line which connects
the Spring Hollow water treatment facility
to service areas along the 1-81 corridor to
Loch Haven Road
. Improved Fire Protection for City of Roanoke and County of Roanoke
. Since November 2006, staff has been working to better communications
between City of Roanoke and County of Roanoke fire department
personnel to identify hydrants throughout the Authority service area with
less than desirable flow and/or pressure characteristics. This includes
discussing integration of fire hydrant information into a more "user
friendly" single database and establishment of a regularly scheduled
hydrant flushing and flow test program
Meteri ng/Bi II i ng/Mo n ito ri ng
. Improved Meter Reading Capability
. Meter operations and utility billing staffs have successfully implemented
new meter reading cycles and routes and updated the utility billing
system. Residential bills are now read
bi-monthly
. In April Z007, the meter operations
group implemented a residential me-
ter replacement program intended to
replace outdated, damaged and/or
inoperable cubic foot and clock dial
style meters. The program is
scheduled to completely replace meters for
six meter routes by the end of 2007 for a total
of approximately 1,500 meters
. Expansion of the SCADA System Network
. Staff continues to add remote sites to the
SCADA network. SCADA is the hardware and
software that allows our treatment plants to
view and control operation of the water
distribution system through the use of
telephone lines and radio signals
. Working toward system-wide Automatic Meter Reading (AMR) capability to
optimize meter reading operations.
. Plans are underway to replace obsolete and/or non-functioning large
meters (2-inch and above) on a planned schedule
. 2,000 residential meters are scheduled to be replaced each year
. All replacement meters are being equipped AMR , ;
capability. This allows a vehicle with a receiver to
drive through a neighborhood and pick up the
signals transmitted by the electronic radio
transmitter, thus eliminating the need for manual
labor to read meters [,
Water Supply
. Participation in Long Range Regional Water Supply Plan
. The Authority's initiated discussions in modifying the 2002 Long Range
Water Supply Plan to meet the requirements of a regional water supply
plan. Current participants in the planning process include the City of
Roanoke, City of Salem, City of Bedford, Roanoke County. Botetourt
County, Franklin County, Bedford County, Town of Rocky Mount and
Town of Vi nton
. Draper-Aden Associates was hired to compile water supply data received
from each jurisdiction to include in the Plan. The cost of the study will
be approximately $176,000. The regional group was successful in
obtaining a planning grant of $30,000 in 2007 and $20,000 for 2008
. Groundwater development project for Garden City wells.
. Conducted a feasibility study to develop a series of eXisting
groundwater test wells capable of providing approximately 4 million
gallons a day of finished water
. Evaluate and make recommendations for any required treatment that will
produce finished water with chemical characteristics and quality
comparable to water currently deiivered by the Authority

WATER AUTHORity
The wastewater treatment system that serves the citizens of Roanoke and Roanoke
County, which includes both the treatment plant plus 900 miles of sewer main, has
undergone much study and change since the Western Virginia Water Authority's startup
in July, 2004. Significant financial and staff resources have been expended to survey,
map, assess, and model the valley's sewer mains and deterrnine how these systems
operate in both wet and dry conditions,
Water Pollution Control Plant Improvements
The dedication of improvements at the Roanoke
Regional Water Pollution Control Plant represents a
$50M investment by the comrnunity, including Vinton,
Salem, and Botetourt County, to protect the Roanoke
River.
Plant operations and maintenance staff were very
proud to report in July to the Authority's Board of
Directors that no overflows occurred frorn the facility in
Fiscal Year 07.
Special Order by Consent
Regulatory requirements are detailed in a Special Order by Consent (SOC) agreement
executed by the Authority and the Virginia Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ)
to resolve alleged wastewater permit exceedences. The SOC became effective in
March of 2005, is wide ranging, and affects many aspects of the Authority's system
operation. The goal of the SOC is to limit sewage overflows during rainfall events. This
is to be accomplished through a combination of capacity increases, infrastructure
renewals, and inflow and infiltration (1&1) reductions.
The SOC contains a number of short-term milestones that staff and consultants have
completing over the last 36 months, These included such items as system
improvements. field investigations, creation of computer models, management plans for
system operation, and the Mudlick Creek (Garst Mill) Interceptor Project. The final
investigative submittal was made January 30, 2007 regarding the financial capabilities of
the Authority to undertake capital improvements.
As stated above, these efforts have helped staff to better understand the dynamics of
inflow and infiltration on the Regional Water Pollution Control Plant and the associated
900 miles of collection system. Significant findings include:
. Capacity infrastructure improvements are only practical to address 2-year storm
frequency events. Costs to control higher storm frequencies are not attainable
without significant impact to customer rates.
. In combination with the capacity increases described above, a 20% peak flow
reduction in the inflow component of 1&1 should significantly decrease the number
of wet weather overflows.
. The five highest priority drainage areas, or sewersheds, by peak flow impact are:
o Mudlick Creek - Upper, Middle, and Lower Sections;
o Roanoke River - All sections plus Barnhardt Creek;
o Tinker Creek - All Sections plus Trout Run, and Carvins Creek;
o Peters Creek - Upper and Lower Sections; and
o Shaffers Crossing.
. Although not ranking as high in terms of peak flow reductions, work is also
needed in the Murray Run and Lick Run basins to address historic overflow
points.
. Regardless of basin location, renovations to make low-lying manholes (below the
1 O-year storm elevation) water tight will be implemented for peak 1&1 control.
. Disconnection of 1&1 sources, such as roof drains and sump pumps, appears to
be the most effective private control measure. Private lateral rehabilitation, while
not significant for 1&1 reduction, has other benefits to customers and should
considered for future implementation.
. Peak flows from Botetourt County and the Town of Vinton are compatible with
their capacity allocations, The City of Salem's peak flows are significant.
Current capacity is marginal. Salem will need to increase allocated system
capacity or reduce peak flows.
Rate Increases Directed by the Special Order by Consent
Regulatory requirements almost exclusively drive resource allocation and capital
planning. This in turn affects the rates customers pay. Sewer rates for City residential
customers are increasing an average of 13% per year. Rates for County customers are
increasing 8% per year. The difference in the rate of increase results from County
customers having higher sewer rates at the start of the Authority's formation. Both
customer classes will be at the same rate in 2011.
To pay for these improvements, the sac speCifies that rates must be raised to generate
revenue equivalent to 1.25% of the City of Roanoke's median household income (MHI)
by 2011. This is equivalent to a monthly sewer bill for residential customers of $33 per
month. The planned rate schedule will elevate the average residential bill to slightly less
than $29 per month by 2011. Moderate rate increases of 7% in 2012 and 3% in 2013
will meet the requirement if household income trends continue as expected. Fortunately,
staff was able to negotiate revenue generation requirement caps at these levels so that
the commitment to renovate the sewer system was not open ended.
,"
If rate schedules described above are adopted and rates keep up with the MHI metric,
funding of $130M for the collection system and $64M for the Regional WPC Plant are
available for system improvements to meet the SOC requirements through FY 2029, It
is important to note that the capital funding estimates are planning values only.
Improvements at the WPC Plant are performing better than expected. The benefits
these improvements provide will not be fully known until stress testing of the new
facilities can be conducted (or peak flows are experienced), Regulatory changes, long
term shifts in weather patterns, the local economic outlook and construction cost inflation
will all have significant impacts of actual expenditures,
Wastewater Collection System Improvements

Park area Construction on this project, started in January
2007 and projected to be completed by July 2008, is being
done by Alex E. Paris Contracting Company, Inc.
Staff has also been able to utilize innovative techniques that save
time and money while minimizing the disruption to our customers.
Staff replaced 670-feet of concrete sewer main on Liberty Road
utilizing directional drilling techniques. Because long trenches did
not have to be dug, this process saved time and minimized
pavement replacement.
