Supervisor Alphin moved that the following Resolution be adopted:
RESOLUTION OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS
OF ISLE OF WIGHT COUNTY, VIRGINIA
AMENDING THE COUNTY CASH PROFFER POLICY
WHEREAS, Section 15.2-2298 of the Code of Virginia authorized the
acceptance of cash proffers from rezoning applicants, provided, (i) the
rezoning itself gives rise to the need for the conditions; (ii) the conditions
have a reasonable relation to the rezoning, and (iii) all conditions are in
conformity with the Isle of Wight County Comprehensive Plan; and
WHEREAS, the Board of Supervisors of Isle of Wight County deemed
it to be in the best interests of the citizens of Isle of Wight County to adopt
provisions in the Zoning Ordinance of Isle of Wight County on April 15,
1981 to allow for conditional zoning, subsequently amended on July 21,
1994; and
WHEREAS, on October 19, 2000, the Board of Supervisors of Isle of
Wight County established the County Cash Proffer Policy subject to the Cash
Proffer Study dated December 1993, prepared by Tischler & Associates, Inc.,
updated July 2003 by the Hampton Roads Planning District Commission; and
WHEREAS, the current Zoning Ordinance of Isle of Wight County
maintains provisions for conditional zoning under Section 1-1016; and
WHEREAS, Chapter 4, Growth Management and Land Use of the Isle
of Wight County Comprehensive Plan adopted October 16, 2008 maintains
the overall objective of requiring that future growth pay its fair share of the
associated costs for additional public facilities and services for which new
development generates demand; and
WHEREAS, the Board of Supervisors of Isle of Wight County, having
authorized an updated Cash Proffer Study prepared in 2012 by TishlerBise
Fiscal, Economic & Planning Consultants, finds that rezoning and
development of properties for residential use may result in increased
population and commensurate increase in the need for capital improvements
8
required to maintain the levels of service provided by the County which are
reflected in the Transportation and Community Facilities Chapters of the
Comprehensive Plan and its appendices; the costs of certain of the capital
improvements which are reflected in the Capital Improvements Program and
the Cash Proffer Study for Schools, Parks & Recreation, Libraries, Sheriff,
Fire & Rescue, and General Government updated in 2012, along with the
Cash Proffer Study for Transportation prepared in 2012 and the Cash
Proffers/Capacity Fees Study for Utilities prepared in 2012, by TischlerBise
have been calculated on the basis of a typical new residential unit and the
contribution of each such residential unit to fund capital improvements
through the tax rate has been calculated; and
WHEREAS, the Board finds that rezoning and development of
properties for commercial and industrial use may result in more intense use of
certain public facilities and also in increased tax revenue and other economic
benefits to the County; and
WHEREAS, the capital improvements related to new commercial and
industrial development may be analyzed and determined on a site specific
basis; and
WHEREAS, the Board recognized that each development proposal
presents circumstances, requiring particularized evaluation, with regard to the
resulting cost and benefits accruing to the County.
THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Board of Supervisors that
the following shall be the amended general guidelines for consideration and
acceptance of cash proffers and will be considered by the Board in
conjunction with other land use factors applicable to particular development
proposals, and other proffers offered by rezoning applicants:
I. APPLICABILITY
These guidelines shall be applicable to all rezoning applications.
Amounts set out in this Policy, representing the cost of public facilities and
capital costs for each typical unit of a development, are general guidelines
only. Individual rezoning applications present circumstances, which are to be
9
considered in evaluating applications and proffered conditions. Those
circumstances and factors include:
A. Proffers of dedication or construction of public facilities or land, or
of amenities or facilities available for use in connection with a
proposed development, which decrease the need for use of
community facilities existing, or planned by the County.
B. The economic benefits of industrial and commercial development
and the contribution of a development proposal to the goal of
development properly apportioned between residential, industrial,
and commercial types.
C. The scale of the proposed development and the minimal incremental
effect on community facilities of residential development consisting
of only one additional lot.
D. Proffers for Transportation and Utilities are to be considered on a
case-by-case basis by examining the overall impact of proposed
development on all public facilities and determining the particular
capital improvements that are needed to maintain levels of service to
serve the new development. Transportation and utilities proffers are
not intended to be combined with other proffer categories,
particularly schools, but are to be negotiated where the need for
transportation and utilities are more severe than may be
demonstrated for the other categories.
In considering voluntary proffered conditions, it is the intent of the
Board of Supervisors to apply this policy as equitably and fairly as possible,
under the law and to avoid any greater or lessor economic advantage to any
applicant for a rezoning of property.
II. METHODOLOGY
A. General Considerations:
10
The impact of proposed developments on public facilities and the
need for capital improvements will be reviewed on a case-by-case
basis.
The basis for analyzing the needs to be generated by proposed
residential development, and the economic contribution of the
development, shall be projected capital costs and tax revenues set
out in documents referred to below. Those costs and revenues are
established for typical County residential units.
In general, the revenue generated by commercial and industrial
development is expected to cover the capital costs of fire protection,
emergency medical, and law enforcement services, recreational
facilities, and county buildings. Each proposed development will be
reviewed to identify any unusual or excessive requirement of that
nature. No contribution for schools or libraries is expected for
commercial and industrial applications. The County’s policy with
respect to cash proffers in commercial and industrial rezoning shall
be interpreted liberally in order to promote desirable economic
development.
B. The cost of needed public facilities as described in Cash Proffer
Study for Schools, Parks & Recreation, Libraries, Sheriff, Fire &
Rescue, and General Government updated in 2012, along with the
Cash Proffer Study for Transportation and the Cash
Proffers/Capacity Fees Study for Utilities prepared in 2012, by
TischlerBise, as may be revised and updated and applicable to each
typical single family residential unit are summarized as follows and
shall, in addition to others factors described in this policy, be the
basis for consideration of cash proffers:
Public Schools $ 9,337
Recreational Facilities 1,171
County Buildings 960
Fire and Rescue Squad 1,248
Libraries 285
11
Sheriff 357
Total Cash Proffer $13,358
C. The cost of needed public facilities for other forms of residential
development have determined to be as follows, as more fully
described in the Cash Proffer Study:
Multifamily $10,079
Mobile Home & Other $11,025
III. ANALYSIS OF THE FINANCIAL BENEFITS OF
DEVELOPMENT
A. The contribution of a development to public improvements financed
through the tax rate has been based on the percentage of the tax rate
attributable to debt service over the 20-year period of a general
obligation bond, and is more thoroughly described in the Cash
Proffer Study.
B. Analysis of in-kind donations, such as land or facilities, should be
based on the value set out in the written proffer, or a method agreed
upon by the staff and the applicant.
IV. ADMINISTRATION
Cash proffers when voluntarily submitted by the applicant and accepted
by the Board of Supervisors and made a part of the conditional zoning will be
further evidenced by a demand note to the County of Isle of Wight, without
interest, in the amount of the total aggregate of the proffers. The note will be
secured by a deed of trust of all of the property involved in the rezoning.
Upon the payment of the proffer to the County on each lot, the lot will be
released from the deed of trust. The County further agrees that the deed of
trust to secure the cash proffers will be subordinated to deeds of trust for
financing of development of the property.
12
V. CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS PROGRAM
Consistent with Section 15.2-2239 of the Code of Virginia, the Board
of Supervisors annually adopts the Capital Improvements Program, which
incorporates the Capital Improvements Plan of the School Board.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED by the Board of Supervisors that a
copy of this policy shall be provided by staff to all applicants for amendments
to the Isle of Wight County Zoning Ordinance during consultation on
submitting an application.
The motion was adopted by a vote of (4-0) with Supervisors Bailey,
Alphin, Darden and Jefferson voting in favor of the motion; no Supervisors
voting against the motion; and Supervisor Casteen absent from the meeting.

Commission to conduct a public hearing and that a recommendation be
forwarded to the Board on proposed revisions to the Chesapeake Bay
Preservation Area Ordinance. The motion was adopted by a vote of (4-0)
with Supervisors Bailey, Alphin, Darden and Jefferson voting in favor of the
motion; no Supervisors voting against the motion; and Supervisor Casteen
absent from the meeting.
13
A Resolution to Establish Certain Boards, Authorities, Committees and
Commissions was presented for consideration.
Supervisor Alphin moved that the following Resolution be adopted:

10. Special conditions. ..... Campgrounds shall follow the regulations set forth in section 1-1017 for

owners having access rights to the private road shall provide a written
authorization for the use of the private road for a workforce campground.
g. The maximum length of continuous occupancy in the same campground shall be
no more than 120 days. The Zoning Administrator has the authority to extend
occupancy in the campground as necessary consistent with outage operations.
Maximum occupancy shall not be circumvented by removal of units for brief
periods of time, as is determined by the Zoning Administrator.
h. The location of the campgrounds, the condition of the site and the nature of
surrounding land uses shall be such that loss of farmland and adverse impact on
surrounding property will be minimal. In general, a wooded site or partially wooded
site is to be preferred to an open site in order to preserve farmland, reduce visual
impact on development and provide an attractive environment within the
campground.
i. The overall design shall evidence a reasonable effort to preserve the natural
amenities of the site, including wooded areas, steep slopes, bluffs, wetlands,
beaches, and bodies of water. Special emphasis shall be given to preservation of
mature trees and landscaping of areas which must be cleared.
j. The conditional use permit, if approved, shall initially be issued for a period not to
exceed five (5) years. Renewal of the permit shall be obtained prior to the

Staff Report – Central Permitting Function Introduction
BACKGROUND:
Early in 2014, the Community Development Team, consisting of staff from
Planning and Zoning, Inspections, Engineering, and Economic Development
Departments, was tasked with creating a singular, one-stop permitting process
where developers, builders, and the general public could obtain permits for any
activity within the three (3) permitting departments.
Staff has been diligently working toward this goal and, effective October 1,
2014, the Central Permitting office will open in the lower level of the
Community Development building. This effort was accomplished by
transferring a Permit Technician from Inspections to Planning and Zoning,
hiring an additional Permit Technician, and cross training the technicians in
the permitting functions of Planning and Zoning, Inspections and Stormwater.
Other personnel were relocated and building renovations to accommodate the
adjustments were made by our very capable General Services employees.
The Central Permitting office will open on October 1, 2014; however, an
official Grand Opening will be held on October 16, 2014 at 4:00pm and the
Board is invited.
Staff will make a presentation to highlight the process and customer service
improvements at the September Board of Supervisors meeting.

ISSUE:
Staff Report – Signage Improvements at County Complex
BACKGROUND:
In early 2014, the Isle of Wight County Marketing Committee was
tasked with “branding” Isle of Wight County. The goal was to give a
cohesive, professional and contemporary look to all materials bearing
the County’s name.
County Complex signage is in need of replacement and the Marketing
Committee developed a design package that utilizes the new County
logo and improves both visibility and clarity. The County Complex
signage was presented to the County’s Historic Architectural Review
Committee and approved unanimously on September 3, 2014. Cost
estimates are being obtained to facilitate sign acquisition and
replacement.
BUDGETARY IMPACT:
Budgetary impact and funding sources are currently being
determined.
RECOMMENDATION:
For the Board’s information.

CHAPTER 2, FINANCIAL AND ACCOUNTING
ARTICLE II
Capital Participation in Volunteer Fire and Rescue
Organization Projects
(Adopted August 1, 2000; Revised December 7, 2000)
Capital Improvements Plan (CIP) Development Process
(Adopted ____)
Section 2.0
Intent/Purpose
The purpose of this policy is to establish a formal process and guidelines for the development of
the County’s Capital Improvements Plan (CIP). The CIP serves as a planning tool for the Board
of Supervisors and provides a mechanism for the planning and financing of major non-recurring
needs. The CIP shall be developed annually to plan for proposed public improvements to be
constructed and major equipment to be purchased during the next 10 years. The CIP is intended to
accomplish the following objectives:
To build the facilities required to support the County’s public service responsibilities.
To improve financial planning by comparing needs with resources, estimating future bond
issues and debt service, and identifying tax rate implications.
To establish priorities among projects so that limited available funds are used to the best
advantage.
To plan public facility construction and major equipment purchases and coordinate timing with
public needs.
To support the physical development objectives contained in approved County plans.
Section 2.1
Eligible Projects
The types of expenditures that will be included in the CIP must be distinguished from expenditures
that will remain part of the Operating Budget. Generally, the classification of assets as capital
versus operating can be determined by two criteria: 1) Cost and 2) Useful Life.
1) Cost: Only those projects that are major and exceed $50,000 shall be included in the CIP.
However, this shall not exclude replacement of items less than $50,000 when included as
a part of a larger project.
2) Useful Life: Only those projects that have a long service life estimated at five (5) years or
more. Expenditure items that are made annually, such as salaries, office supplies, personal
computers and software, office furniture, routine maintenance and service contracts, or
similar “soft” or non-durable purchases are not appropriate to include in the capital
program.
To classify an item as either a capital or operating expenditure, the cost and useful life criteria
should be applied simultaneously.
Section 2.2
CIP Development Process
The CIP Development Process will begin in September of each year to address in detail the
five year plan and additional five year horizon for needed County capital improvements.
The County Administrator will send out a CIP Request Package and instructions to solicit CIP
project requests from county departments and Isle of Wight County Schools for the next 10
years.
The County Administrator will review the CIP requests and develop a recommended CIP with
the input of departments. Once completed, the County Administrator’s recommended CIP will
be forwarded to the Planning Commission.
The Planning Commission will review the County Administrator’s recommended CIP, direct
any edits, and forward the document to the Board of Supervisors.
The Board of Supervisors will review the Planning Commission recommended CIP, hold a
public hearing, make any necessary edits and adopt the CIP.
The first year of the adopted CIP, subject to funding availability, will be incorporated into the
County Administrator’s Proposed Annual Operating and Capital Budget.
a. All requests for capital funding participation must be presented by the individual Fire and
Rescue Department to the Fire and Rescue Association and receive a recommendation for
funding to include an amount and proposed timetable for submission in the Capital
Improvements Plan (CIP).
b. All requests for submission in the CIP shall be presented to the CIP Subcommittee of the
Planning Commission by the President of the Fire and Rescue Association and the Director
of Emergency Management.
c. The adopted Capital Improvement Plan does not constitute funding approval by the Board
of Supervisors. As such, all projects approved in the CIP must be funded by an
appropriation in the Capital Budget prior to project implementation.
d. The Virginia Public Procurement Act and the Isle of Wight County Procurement Policy
shall be adhered to and complied with for all County funded Fire and Rescue projects.
Prior to the purchases, the Isle of Wight County Volunteer Fire and Rescue Association
shall be consulted for needs, specifications, potential bidders, and prior to acceptance of
any bid. Project management shall be performed jointly by the individual Fire and Rescue
Association and the Director of Emergency Management.
e. The County shall maintain ownership of all County funded Real Estate projects and insure
same on the County’s Property and Casualty Insurance Policy.

CHAPTER 2, FINANCIAL AND ACCOUNTING
ARTICLE IV
County Funding Policy for Those Agencies Adversely Impacted
by Reductions in State Funding
(Adopted November 7, 2002)
The Commonwealth of Virginia is experiencing unprecedented revenue shortfalls due to current
economic conditions and is significantly reducing, and in some cases eliminating, the amount of
funding being provided to agencies and programs.
Isle of Wight County is fiscally unable to continue to supplement or offset the substantial
reductions in State funds necessary to sustain the affected agencies and programs.
Any funds reduced or eliminated from the budget of any affected agency, board, commission, etc.
as a result of cuts made by the Commonwealth of Virginia will not be absorbed or replaced by
funding from the County, unless such loss of funding is deemed to be critical to the safety and
well-being of County citizens.

maintains the rig in a safe and appropriate manner. Drivers must use
caution and observe all safety rules and traffic laws. This procedure
will ensure safety and avoid criticism from the public.
Section 2.6
Emergency Response
1. Categories of Response:
EMERGENCY: Those incidents that pose a significant risk to life or
property. Emergency response requires the use of audio and visual
warning devices. These devices must be in use during the entire duration
of response unless the response is downgraded to a non-emergency by a
competent authority. The initial response to the following types of
incidents shall be considered emergencies:
a. A reported fire in a structure.
b. All categories of emergency medical incidents except non-life
threatening request for assist.
c. A reported fire outside of a structure that involves the potential
destruction of property or poses a risk to human or animal life.
September 18, 2014/asc/County Policy Update – Emergency Vehicle/Apparatus Use
d. Response to manmade or natural disaster involving the destruction
of property and the potential for injury or death.
e. Automated alarms with due regard for safety.
Non-Emergency: Those incidents that do not pose a significant risk to life
or property. Audio and visual warning devices are not to be used during
non-emergency responses unless ordered by a competent authority to
upgrade the response to emergency status. The initial response to the
following types of incidents shall not be considered to be emergencies:
a. Medical incidents that involve transfers, lift assist, & et cetera.
b. Public service calls when there is no immediate threat to life or
property.
2. Response guidelines:
a. Apparatus engaged in a non-emergency response shall obey all
applicable traffic safety rules and regulations and shall not exceed
the posted speed limit.
b. Apparatus engaged in an emergency response shall at all times
govern their response by the traffic, weather, and road conditions
present at the time of response.
c. The maximum speed of travel shall not exceed the posted limits by
more than 10 mph.
d. During an emergency response, drivers shall bring the apparatus to a
complete stop for any of the following:
1. When directed by a law enforcement officer.
2. Stop signs.
3. Red traffic signals.
September 18, 2014/asc/County Policy Update – Emergency Vehicle/Apparatus Use
4. Negative right-of-way intersections.
5. Blind intersections.
6. When the driver cannot account for all lanes of traffic in an
intersection.
7. When other intersection hazards are present.
e. Drivers shall proceed through an intersection only when the driver can
account for all lanes of traffic in the intersection.
f. Drivers shall bring the apparatus to a complete stop at all unguarded
rail road crossings and shall not cross the tracks until determining that
it is safe to do so.
g. Drivers shall bring the apparatus to a complete stop for all school buses
that are loading or unloading children. Drivers shall not proceed until
the bus driver has clearly indicated that it is safe to do so.
h. Drivers shall not pass other responding emergency apparatus unless the
driver of the front vehicle indicates it is safe to do so.
3. Response responsibilities:
a. Drivers shall be directly responsible for the safe and prudent operation
of the apparatus in all situations.
b. When a driver is under the direct supervision of an officer, the officer
shall assume responsibility for the actions of the driver and shall be
responsible for immediately correcting any unsafe condition.
c. When responding under emergency conditions, warning lights and
audible devices shall be used as required by the Code of Virginia.
Headlights shall be used at all times (day or night) when the apparatus
is in motion.
September 18, 2014/asc/County Policy Update – Emergency Vehicle/Apparatus Use
d. The use of warning devices only requests the right of way. It does not
demand it! Operators of emergency vehicles must make every possible
effort to make their presence and intentions known to other drivers.
e. Emergency response is to be used only in conjunction with emergency
incidents. Emergency responses shall be terminated as soon as it is
apparent an emergency no longer exists.
f. While en-route to an emergency incident, it shall be understood by
all responding personnel that the emergency apparatus shall have
the right of way in all situations. Personnel responding by privately
owned vehicle (POV) shall not pull out in front of, or in any manner
impede the travel of the emergency apparatus, or block the emergency
apparatus’ access and egress from the emergency incident. Apparatus
drivers should, whenever possible, yield to chief officers while
responding in their POV.
g. When operating under less than favorable conditions (fog, rain, snow,
ice, etc.) the posted speed is the maximum speed allowed.
h. When operating apparatus in good conditions, the posted speed is
allowed to be exceeded by no more than 10 mph. Good judgment and
ability dictates how fast you drive to an emergency.
i. When proceeding through intersections controlled by a stop sign or a
traffic signal, the driver shall bring the apparatus to a complete stop and
account for traffic in the oncoming lanes and assure that they are
yielding the right of way. Due caution shall also be used when
proceeding through green traffic signals. Remember that a right turn on
red is allowed in Virginia and that vehicles making turns may not yield
immediately.
j. When an emergency vehicle responding to an emergency approaches a
school bus that is loading or unloading children, the driver shall bring
the emergency vehicle to a complete stop. The driver may only proceed
September 18, 2014/asc/County Policy Update – Emergency Vehicle/Apparatus Use
once the school bus driver has cleared the children of the roadway, and
has waved the emergency vehicle through.
k. While responding to emergencies, apparatus shall not pass each other
unless the other apparatus becomes delayed or disabled. If passing
becomes necessary, permission must be obtained through radio
communications with the driver of the other apparatus.
Section 2.7
Backing Apparatus
Drivers shall avoid backing whenever possible. Where backing is
unavoidable, all available crew members shall act as guides to the driver. If
crew members are not available, it shall be the responsibility of the driver to
assure that there are no hazards that would interfere with the backing of the
apparatus. (The driver should exit the cab and make a 360 degree circle
around the apparatus to assure that it is safe to back.) Drivers backing
apparatus in traffic shall operate their emergency lights. Also, before
beginning to back the rig, a short blast of the air horn shall be sounded to
make sure that all attentions is directed towards the backing apparatus.
Section 2.8
Parking Apparatus
Drivers shall, when parking apparatus, use the traffic cones provided to
protect personnel who may be working in the street and use warning lights to
warn approaching drivers of the incident. When possible, park the apparatus
at an angle to provide a barrier for the driver/operator.
Section 2.9
Leaving a Location
Prior to leaving an incident scene or any location other than the firehouse, the
apparatus operator shall walk around the apparatus to look for hazards such
September 18, 2014/asc/County Policy Update – Emergency Vehicle/Apparatus Use
as open compartments, loose equipment, hose still connected to the apparatus
and so forth.
Section 2.10
Accidents

ISSUE:
Staff Report – Preliminary Wetland Delineation Results for Shirley T.
Holland Phase II “Sustainable Forest” Property
BACKGROUND:
In February 2014, County staff procured the services of Resources
International, Inc. to perform a new wetlands delineation for a portion
of the Shirley T. Holland Intermodal Park Phase II known as the
“Sustainable Forest” property, an approximately 132 acre tract that lies
just to the west of the Keurig Green Mountain Coffee facility. The new
wetlands delineation replaces the former delineation that expired in
2011.
Wetlands delineations must be reviewed and confirmed by the US
Army Corps of Engineers (USACOE). This review and confirmation is
what is known as a Jurisdictional Determination (JD) and is the final
determination of the extent of wetlands. These JDs are valid for a
period of five years. At the end of the five year period, property
owners may request an extension to the JD prior to the expiration date
or perform a new delineation and undergo a new USACOE review
should the JD expire.
The most recent Sustainable Forest JD expired in 2011. In order to
fully inform prospective clients of the amount and location of wetlands
that must be either preserved or mitigated on the property, staff hired
Resources International to perform a new delineation and submit it to
the USACOE for review and confirmation. Preliminary findings reveal
that the amount of wetland areas on the Sustainable Forest properties
has expanded from 13 acres as confirmed in 2006, to approximately
100 acres, pending USACOE confirmation. The consulting engineer
advised staff that a final JD from the USACOE should arrive in the
next few weeks.
2
Impacts:
The largest impact to the IDA and the County is the potential loss of
approximately 99 acres of developable property.
Portions of the wetland areas could potentially be mitigated for
future development but with a significant increase in development
costs.
The potential reduction in land value.
Maintenance costs for the property will increase in order to clear
ditches and allow the trees to grow, and as the groundwater level
lowers, a new wetland delineation could be performed in another
five years to determine if the wetland areas have decreased in size.
Next Steps:
Due to the pending USACOE decision, staff has consulted with
Resources International to develop an action plan to slow the continued
loss of upland area and land value of the property.
1) Leave trees (all sizes) during the extent of the next permit period in
order to better absorb groundwater;
2) Cut and maintain all remaining clear areas;
3) Obtain permit to "clean" existing ditches to improve flow which is
allowed as long as we don't increase their capacity; and
4) Move forward with developing a "pad ready" site on Gray property
prior to the existing impact permit expiring in 2017.
5) Reassess at the end of the delineation period for the Sustainable
Forest property to determine the need and value of a new wetland
delineation.
Implementation of the action plan will include the following projected
costs:
Permit to clean the ditches from the USCOE, including submission
of permit and associated drawings = $8-10,000
3
Cost of contractor to clean ditches and dispose of the spoils
(recommended every two to three years, except for wooded area
between Green Mountain and SAFCO should be cleaned each year
depending on the severity of the storms) = $40,000
Cost for a gravel drive and a 300x500’ clearing to prepare for a
future pad-ready site on Grayland Lumber site and to exercise
existing impact permit - $35,000
Staff is identifying potential source of funds for the action plan.
