Under Item 1, Opening Remarks, Alan Monette, Chairman of the
Economic Development Committee, thanked the Board for the opportunity
to meet today. He stated the Economic Development Committee desires to
routinely meet with the Board to receive feedback on what the Board wishes
the Committee to accomplish.
//
Chairman Bradby called for agenda Item 2, Role of the EDC in Isle of
Wight County's Overall Economic Development Program.
Patrick J. Small, Director of Economic Development, stated the
purpose of the meeting today is the Economic Development Committee's
desire to meet with the .Board to receive a better understanding of what the
1
~a.n 20 rN:f21fi
Board expects the Committee to accomplish. ` He stated the Committee has
not had the opportunity during the last several years to interact with the
Board.
Supervisor Bradshaw stated he desires the Department of Economic
Development, in conjunction with the Economic Development Committee,
to take a more aggressive approach. He stated economic development has
two functions:. Existing business and expanding the tax base and bringing
in new types of businesses, i.e., industrial, commercial and small industry.
He stated he sees the Committee's overall responsibility as dealing with
existing businesses and the existing community: He stated secondly the
Economic Development Committee is charged with providing support to the
Economic Development Director .and his staff regarding its expertise. and
recommendations in what businesses the County should be considering to
attract. He stated certain areas are designated in the County's
Comprehensive Plan for economic development, but there .are other
opportunities and with the expertise of the Committee to provide these
opportunities and give the Board direction as far as how the County should.
proceed. He stated the purpose of the Committee, which consists of
business .leaders. of the community, is ultimately to broaden- the Board's
perspective.
Supervisor Claud concurred with Supervisor Bradshaw's comments.
He noted there have been some changes in the aggressiveness of the Board
in economic development and, at .this point in time, in addition to the
existing businesses, the Board is now looking for help in working with new
businesses. He stated there is still a role for the Cornrnittee to play in that,
but he thinks down the road the concern may be primarily. with existing
businesses and he wants the Committee to concentrate on the new, but not
overlook the fact that a majority of the growth will come from the existing
businesses. He stated the role of the Committee is the provide advice and
guidance as to what the Board should be looking at.
Mr. Monette stated the Committee tries to organize and tries to
understand the County's resources, staff and operations.. He stated the
Committee has visited the sites, listened. to financial .consultants from the
State regarding capitalization and ways of helping the County develop. He
stated the Committee has also been involved in recommending a grant to at
least one (1) local business, as well as the development of the Strategic Plan.
He noted the Committee agrees thai existing business is an important aspect
and the Committee is cognizant of the needs of all of those and that the
Committee would like to be more .involved in the possibilities and the
potential of clientele being attracted to .the County. He stated he would like
to see the Board have the full resources as a team to help the Director in
what he is involved with. He stated the Committee agrees with the
importance of existing businesses, but the Committee feels like the
involvement with and .disclosure. of prospects is very important to the
Committee.

Supervisor Bradshaw suggested the Committee develop a plan
defining what it calls being involved. and present it to the Board. He stated
he is unclear as to what Mr. Monette calls being involved and he needs a
better understanding.
Mr. Monette stated he has heard .about prospects from employees that
live in Windsor. He stated the community is small and word gets around
quickly.
Supervisor Clark stated the private citizens are the County's greatest
tap of resources. He stated a committee of this nature needs a variety. of
different kinds of people, i.e., .technology person .and a .developer. or
someone who knows how. to put deals together and make it happen. He
stated the Board must be able to trust the persons appointed to this
Committee and he understands there must be confidentiality, but there is no
one on this Committee that the Board could not reveal things to.
1
Supervisor. MacManus stated .the Board needs the Committee to fill
the mission here for economic development which is a major facet in
making the County healthy. He stated heavy emphasis is on existing
businesses and new businesses in trying to fulfil the Comprehensive Plan
and its vision on how the Board looks to see some heavy industrial projects
continue in the southern end of the County. He stated the Board needs the
assistance and guidance from the Committee to assist with staff here. He
stated it is a shame for anyone on this Committee to become informed about
projects through other channels. He stated the Committee offers a lot to this
community and the Board wants to take advantage of the Committee's
expertise. He stated if the Committee .feels like it is being excluded from
projects coming into the County then the Board has not provided sufficient
push in that direction. He stated it should be a balanced effort on both sides.
Supervisor Claud stated .staff needs to look at the functions of the IDA
because this is another group that works with economic development. He
stated there does need to be some distinction of these committees so it is
clear what their various functions are.
Robert Harris stated the Chairman of the IDA is on the Committee
which helps a great deal.
1
Harry Dashiell stated the Committee does not desire to get into every
detail, however, it does feel ignored at times when it finds out things last.
Supervisor Bradshaw stated the County needs the help and expertise
of the Committee on how the County can expand the tax base for the
County.

Supervisor Bradshaw moved the Board direct the Economic
Development Committee, with the assistance of the Economic Development
Director, to develop a vision and .guidelines for the Committee to be
presented to the Board for approval which incorporates existing businesses
and prospective business,. to include the process of communications. The
motion was adopted with :Supervisors MacManus, Bradby, Bradshaw, Clark
and Claud voting in favor of the motion {5-0) and no Supervisors voting
against the motion.
//
Chairman Bradby called for agenda Item 3, Local Technology and
Telecommunications Infrastructure Development.
Mr. Monette stated this aspect of infrastructure is very important to
the community. He stated Supervisor Claud, Mr. Harris, Mr. Reynolds and
himself have been .associated on the Telecommunications Committee for
quite some time and because of a lot of persistence and effort they had a role
to play. in extended area calling and the ability of people to have more access
outside the Internet providers. He stated the County has the opportunity to
get its. arms around what we have today and -where we are going from here in
broadening communications that will drive a lot of industry and the citizenry
of the entire County. He stated there is heavy cable. buried in the County in
recent months and Verizon is taking hold of GTE and there. is a wireless
company out of Emporia which is very important. He stated there are
people that have made overtures to the County who would like to provide a
high .speed trunk line over 500 miles with direct access to 'the Internet at
strategic points as far away as Kentucky and Virginia Beach. He stated the
County has the staff with technical abilities and the County needs to find a
way because this is very .important for the retention of existing businesses
and attractive for new business..He recommended that staff do a survey on
where the County is and where it is going with technology. He stated the
Committee has invited Horizon to make a presentation on June 18, 2001 at
2:00 p.m. on what they have, what they see, and what is available that they
can bring to the community now that they have come .together with GTE.
He invited. interested staff and Board members to attend this meeting and
become familiar with -some of the .people that might have impact on the
community.
Mr. Harris stated the County needs to get these people to provide these
kinds of services. He stated this ranks with water quality, highways, electric
power and fire protection.
Branch Lawson stated the County needs to develop a strategy on
where those critical masses are.
Mr. Smail stated staff included $100,400 in the Operating Budget,
with $30,000 dedicated to do the telecommunications infrastructure.

Supervisor Bradshaw stated the .County is currently restructuring the
entire technology of the County, including aspects of the schools to reinforce
it. He suggested the .County Administrator initiate .bringing the
Committee's expertise into discussions with the technology group.
Supervisor MacManus inquired if the $30,000 is adequate to fund the
infrastructure analysis that .will enable the Committee to accurately do
visioning based on where their strengths and weaknesses were, where the
systems were and where the gaps were.
Mr. Monette stated if the Board authorizes County staff (Lyle
Hornbaker and Bill McKinney) on this it would be helpful for the County to
have that expertise on the staff and build a broader staff in the whole area of
residential. and economic development. He stated the .two (2) largest
businesses at both ends of the County will be .demanding this type of
infrastructure.
Supervisor Bradshaw suggested the Committee contact the two (2)
largest businesses in the County to see what they are doing.
Mr. Harris stated when firms come into the County looking for zoning,
the County should try to negotiate some type of County access.
Supervisor Bradshaw stated Charter Communications has agreed to
allow the County free access to every governmental building in the County.
Supervisor Clark stated the first step is to get the Committee together
with the County's technical committee and report to the Board on what is
going on. He stated then the Board can vote on whether or not to allocate
$30,000 for a study.
Jim Reynolds stated we need someone to tell us what technology is
available today. We need to obtain .this information and .provide
infrastructure to support the development.
Mr. Monette stated he was having a meeting on June 18, 2001 with
Verizon at his business and he would suggest. Mr. Small, Mr. Hardin and
other appropriate staff members attend and report back to the Board with a
plan on how to go forward with it.
C
Chairman Bradby called for the Proposed Capital Improvements Plan
for Economic Development.
Mr. Small stated when the Committee. developed its Strategic Plan the
priority of the Ptan was the development of business-ready sites in the
County. He stated other jurisdictions have these developed sites. He noted
we had only thirty (30) acres left in our industrial park.. He stated .last year's
5
CIP had three (~3) new business parks in it; however, the current CIP
contains only one (1) of the proposed parks and staff has made a
recommendation to the Committee that the one (1) proposed park is not
sufficient.
Mr. Monette stated there is a lot of funding going into .the Central
Development Service District, but his concern is in the northern district
where some investment could be put. He stated why wait and let office
parks that could possibly be planned now for the northern district coincide
with residential development going on up there. He stated the County
should not wait three (3) years and lose momentum in that end of the County
because that is where the utilities are located.
Supervisor Claud stated there is a limited amount of funds that you
can spend. Economic Development is a good area to spend this in, but there
is a limit on what the Board can put for that purpose. He explained his
priority was. to .spend the funds in the Central Development Service District
knowing that there were a number of acres of land available where facilities
could be located.
Mr. Glanville stated if the parameters are not set well the County will
end up with a hodgepodge.
Mr. Harris stated- we are talking about acquisition, rather than getting a
handle on it because the County wants the high-end technology parks, not
the low-end storage. He stated if just a small increment could be placed
aside to focus on the high technology picture, it would be helpful.
Mr. Monette asked if it would be possible to restructure some of the
funds so that more funds could be placed in the Northern Development
Service District now.
Supervisor Bradshaw suggested again that as the Committee is going
through the planning process that it use this as one of the steps. and make a
recommendation to the Board.
//
Chairman Bradby thanked the Committee for meeting with the Board.
Supervisor Clark. suggested that the Committee meet again with the
Board in .two (2) months.
Supervisor Bradshaw moved the Board take a ten (10) minute recess
before continuing with the regular meeting scheduled for 6:00 p.m. The
motion was adopted unanimously (5-0).

being selected as one of 25 young women in the nation to serve as a member
of the Young Women of NASA Advisory Council.
The motion was adopted with Supervisors MacManus, Bradby,
Bradshaw, Clark and Claud voting in favor of the .motion (5-0) and no
Supervisors voting against the motion.
Donald T. Robertson, Assistant County Administrator/Director of
Human Resources, addressed- the Board concerning the Hazard Mitigation
Grant Program. He corrected his statement to the. Board at its previous
meeting that the County had approximately .$88,000 to work with in regard
to elevations. He stated he did not take into account at that time that one (1)
of the projects had been submitted as an acquisition project. As a result, the
County has approximately $220,000 as opposed to the $88,000. He
distributed confirmation that FEMA has provided the approval of that
change. in funding. Additionally, as previously directed by the Board, he
.stated he has contacted. the County's legislative delegation and received
feedback from the Offices of Senator Warner and Allan and Congressman
Scott. In addition, the information provided to him with regard to closing
the gap, is a request to the State for an additional $138,000. He noted the
bids are in the approximate amount of $328,000, of which the County has
$220,000, leaving a gap of $108,000. He requested that the State give
consideration to provide additional. funding in the amount of $138,000 to
allow for contingencies that may arise and also to close the gap as quickly as
possible. The State has verbally advised that that funding has been
identified although verification has not been received in writing as of today.
He stated the County has been advised that until those projects are formally
closed out, the State. can not provide the County with that notification. The
projects. must be closed out by June 30, 2001 and he anticipates written
notification of the additional funding upon close-out of the current projects.
He concluded that funding is currently in place to perform two (2) of the
elevations.
Supervisor MacManus inquired if the State would provide written
documentation that funds will be available after July 1, 2001. He stated if
the State is willing to .state in writing that the funds will be available after
July 1, 2001, it would allow this Board to move forward with some
assurance that the funds will be available without the risk of walking
uncovered on faith based on a verbal .statement from the State. If the County
moves forward with only a verbal confirmation, there is the potential that the
County could be liable for the $108,000 to $.138,000 differential.
Supervisor Clark stated he would also like written documentation from
the State confirming what the State has told Mr. Robertson verbally.
Supervisor Bradshaw stated the message that needs to be relayed to
the Governor's Office is that we are talking about the lives ofindividuals,
even it means an appeal to the Governor.

er jM ~ 2~ ~ -i :~?23
Peter Andreu, Project Manager, explained the process on the bid and
how the cash flow would take place. He stated a lump sum contract would
be awarded the contractor for. all three (3) projects. Once the .contract is
awarded, a schedule of values is created based on mobilization based on
work performed in the field after completion. All three (3) houses will not
be completed simultaneously, however, .the work force will rotate from
house to house. He stated the finish date is September 11, 2001.
Supervisor Bradshaw stated he is irr favor of moving forward with this
request because he has confidence that the, County's congressional
delegation will support the County. He suggested that Senator Quayle also
be contacted to plead the case of the individual citizens so that they can get
back to some form of acceptable living.
Supervisor Clark stated the County does not budget for a hazard
mitigation program, but the State and Federal Governments do. The Co~.~nty
can't. help residents displaced from their homes when they don't carry fire
insurance nor does the County have funds to help residents when they are
flooded out of their homes. Other Board members talk about setting
precedents and today the Board will be doing just that if County funds. are
used for mitigation. He stated .the County does not have the funds to do
what it is being asked to do today and he is not. confident that the County
will get its funds back from the State and Federal Governments.
Supervisor Bradshaw pointed out that the County made a mistake by
not requesting sufficient funding initially and it is the County's
responsibility, as a local government, to secure ..the flood funds for the
residents. He stated the County needs to admit it made a mistake because it
was new at this as it had never happened before.
Supervisor Claud stated he could not move forward .without having
written notification in hand.
Responding to Supervisor Bradshaw's inquiry on when a letter could
be faxed to Mr. Robertson confirming funding after July 1, 2001, Mr.
Robertson advised that he has not requested a letter from the State advising
what the State will do after July 1, 2001.. What he has requested is for the
State to advise him now that the projects have been approved. He stated he
would put the Board's request in writing immediately requesting a response
from the State.
Supervisor Bradby stated it is the County's responsibility to be as
cooperative as it .possibly can. He noted he is sympathetic to the flood
victims and he recommends the Board move forward with the funding in an
effort to bring these flood .victims'.. lives back to normal as quickly as
possible.

Supervisor Bradshaw moved the Board approve the low bid by C.P.G.
Inc. in the amount of $328,776 and authorize staff to proceed, subject to the
County Attorney's approval of the contracts. The motion was defeated (2-3)
with Supervisors Bradshaw and Bradby voting in .favor of the motion and
Supervisors MacManus, Clark and Claud voting. against the motion.
Supervisor MacManus moved that the contract be approved upon
receipt of documented correspondence from the State to confirm what has
already been offered to the County verbally that the State will have the
remainder of the funding necessary for all the elevations to move forward
and that upon receipt. of that letter from FENIA that the County move
forward as quickly as possible to complete the elevations per the contract for
C.P.G. Inc., as recommended by the County's consultant, contingent upon
the County Attorney's review of the contract. The motion was adopted with
Supervisors MacManus, Bradby, Bradshaw, Clark and Claud voting in favor
of the motion (5-0) and no Supervisors voting against the motion.
County Attorney Crook stated his understanding of the motion is that
if the Board approves the contract subject to the notice to proceed not being
given until written verification that adequate funding has been received from
State and Federal agencies, the Board can proceed with signing the contracts
and as soon as written verification is received, the County can proceed.

with representatives of the Town of Windsor. regarding a concern with a
ditch behind East Griffin Street related to the sewer project. In this regard,
he recommended the County support the Town of .Windsor and that staff
correspond with the VDOT Resident Engineer to ask that maintenance of
the ditch behind East Griffin Street be taken .care of and further that the
County permit a utility easement to allow. the equipment in to clean the
ditch. He noted the County Attorney is reviewing the matter and will advise

Cleveland.

R. L. Walker and. the VDOT Resident Engineeron site to address drainage

Roger Glover requested the Board grant a waiver to allow septic tanks "
on property along Route 25$ that he intends to convey to his sons.
Grace Keen addressed the Board concerning the recent internal audit
performed on the Treasurer's off ce. She suggested that the matter .before
the Board should have been held in closed session. She also requested the
Board's assistance in remedying the fact that there .are as many as 200
parcels in the County that should be sold for non-payment of taxes that are
not being sold because of the lawyer's hesitation due to the expense
incurred.

encourage industry and. help keep the real estate costs down; however, he
did have a concern with increased trailer truck traffic on Bank Street. He
stated he is aware of discussion with.VDOT about a possible connector road

that on the list of priorities. He stated he is in favor of enforcement and
finding alternate routes to this type of business location.
Darrin Stauffer stated there is a large area slated for industrial use
included in the County's Draft Comprehensive Plan. He stated areas are

C. Proposed Fiscal Year 2002-2006 Capital Improvements Program
for Isle of Wight County
Chairman Bradby called for citizens to speak in favor of or in
opposition to the proposed application.
Oliver Creeden of South Church Street, Volunteer Chairman of the
Isle of Wight/Windsor/Smithfield YMCA, recognized members of the
YMCA that were present in the audience. He thanked the Board for
inclusion in the CIP and the recommendation by the. Planning Commission
for funding in the. total amount of $500,000 to be paid over twenty (20)
..years. He stated these funds would support the planned expansion of the
facility by providing an indoor pool, an expanded wellness area and a
nursery center to the existing. facility.. Projections show based on the
experience of other YMCAs in the area that a pool and other amenities
would cause the membership to double within a year after completion of the
project. With this improved facility, the YMCA will be able to offer other
recreation programs that are not presently offered in the County or
community. He requested that the County support 20% of the $2.4 million
by the County's $500,000 contribution. He stated a similar amount is being.
requested by the Town of Smithfield with the remaining 60% being raised
from private sources, including foundations, corporations and individuals
within the community.
Reverend James Key, Volunteer Vice-Chairman of the Board of
Directors for the Smithfield/Windsor YMCA Branch, shared with the Board
what the YMCA is doing for families and children in the community.
Supervisor Bradshaw inquired if the YMCA intends to provide the
pool free of charge to the County's school system.
Reverend Key stated he is not prepared to discuss the cost at this
point, however, he is aware that the school system does not have a pool and
the YMCA is willing to work with the school system and everybody in order
to make this happen.
Supervisor MacManus stated the YMCA has indicated previously a
..willingness to 'work with the community to find something that would be
.equitable for everyone.

Supervisor Clark requested that the County Attorney make a
recommendation to the Board at its May 31, 2001 meeting responsive to this
request.
Mr. Finderson further addressed the Board concerning the application
of the County's Industrial Development Authority for a U.S. Army Corp of
Engineers' permit. and Virginia Water Protection permit. He noted that a
Water Quality Impact Assessment should be required to be prepared for this
property which he hopes will suggest mitigation for the drainage area.
Sheriff Phelps addressed the Board concerning a Law Enforcement
Resource Protection Officer grant position.
Supervisor MacManus stated the. Town of Smithfield has approved a
new school resource officer as part of the grant. He stated the-first three (3)
years .are funded, but the fourth year must be funded by the locality, which
will be paid by the Town of Smithfield. He inquired if the Sheriff was
interested in the same option as the County receives a new officer with every
1,.500 citizens that locate in the County and with the growth the County is
incurring, new officers are anticipated for the coming years. He stated there
appears to be some benefit to bring staff on board (one (1) to two (2)
officers) at a cost of three (3) quarters of the salary for four (4) years. He
requested that the Sheriff respond to why he had indicated that he did not
want to pursue that option.
Sheriff Phelps stated he is not opposed to school resource- officers
being located in the schools, but he is opposed to security guards being in
the school system because he does not feel an officer would be adequately
used if placed in a school for the purpose of patrolling the halls. He stated
he feels that if the officers are going to be .placed in the schools, then they
need to be utilized in the capacity that would benefit everyone, i.e.,
informing the students of the laws, as well as enforce the State laws. He
noted there is a difference between enforcing State laws and school
administration laws and all of this would have to be worked out with the
school administration as to the authority that they would be willing to
provide the officer and who would control that officer.. He reiterated that he
is not opposed to resource officers being located in the school system,
however, if the County places a resource officer in one (1) school, then a
resource officer should be located in all schools. He stated if the Board is
willing to absorb the cost, it can be done as the application for the grant is
still available until June 15, 2001. He stated he does receive an officer for
every 1,500, but the. Town of Smithfield receives. one (1) officer for every
450. He stated .the County has 319 square miles to cover and when you
consider pulling an officer off and strictly putting him in the schools because
he comes under the 1,500 guidelines, he really could not do this. He stated
there needs to be additional funding from the County in order to have school
resource officers.
16

Supervisor MacManus stated he see some benefit as there have been
concerns in the past with the safety in the schools. He stated this would be
an opportunity on a periodic basis that is funded outside the County. He
stated he is aware that there is some cost to the. County.
Sheriff Phelps stated the DARE program entails Kindergarten through
sixth grade and contact is made .with the individuals and school
administration. Also in place is awalk-through program whereby officers
are required to walk through the schools and encouraged to eat lunch .with
the students in the cafeteria. Requests by school administrators are
responded to and. he respects their authority according to the code section,
even though it sometimes conflicts with the County's authority. If the Board
wishes to do so, he will apply for the grant and attempt to have. at least one
(1) officer ready to go into the Windsor Middle School by September, he
stated.
Supervisor Clark pointed out that if the program is discontinued, there
is a deputy that has been trained and could move into regular duties, if the
County anticipates having positions in the future that will be funded by the
County. He requested that the Sheriff provide. the Board with additional
information on a school resource officer position.
1
Supervisor. Bradshaw stated the Board is discussing a school issue,
one that will be implemented by the School Board, .which is beyond the
Board's authority as far as granted by the State Constitution. He pointed out
that the School Board did not request a resource officer position for security
reasons in the school budget.

involved in the revision of the Zoning Ordinance rather than the formation
of a working committee of the Commission.
