3. Reports from County Administrator & Staff:
a. Publication of VACO Public Service Announcements - I plan to
present two 30-second radio spots for consideration by the board prior to distribution to local television stations.
b. Drainage Issues1. Use of Revenue Sharing program
with in-kind services as the local match either through PSA operations,
County engineering and/or donated assistance. County safety equipment is limited to 4-foot depth.
2. Review current drainage problemsFair Acres,Allisonia,Belspring,Dunkards Bottom, Lillydell, Old Peppers Ferry Loop, Fairlawn, Property at intersection of Rt. 600 ( Belspring Road) and
Route 114, (Peppers Ferry Blvd), Parrott River Road including railroad underpass, Brookmont Road, mainly private bridges and culverts
crossing Tract Fork Creek, Falling Branch Road Route 798, Community of New River, Rt. 628 Kent Farm Road, Rt. 665 Simpkins Town Road, Rt. 619 Issac Walton League Road, Rt. 602, Dry Branch Road low water bridges, F047 Old Route 100 west of the Peak Creek Crossing mainly
the private culverts across the branch, and Route 747, Old Route 11 in the vicinity of Wilson Body Shop
east of Dublin.
3. Determine which projects can be addressed through this approach.
4. Solicit assistance from the PSA and private contractors.
4. Items of Consent
a. Minutes of May 5 and 12, 2003 – Approval of the draft minutes of the May 5 and May 12 budget work sessions is requested.
b. Award of Audit & Cost Allocation Contracts
The Board was previously provided with a memo from Nancy Burchett recommending the award of audit
services to Robinson, Farmer, Cox Associates and cost allocation
plan to Maximus. Both firms have fulfilled these functions in previous years. The separation of duties between firms saves $200 and provides a double check on the proper accounting of
expenditures.
c. New River Community Action Homeless Intervention Program
Ratification of the letter of support for the SHARE Federal Shelter Grant
Pilot Project is requested. The application deadline was May 30 requiring my signature prior to the Board meeting. I reviewed the matter with Jim Wallis who concurred with my signoff which was
made with the following conditions:
There needs to be specific representation by Pulaski County and other Department of Social Services in the management and administration of this grant; and
All other local and regional agencies with any bearing on potentially assisting the homeless be included in planning and implementing the proposed grant.
These conditions are offered in appreciation for the difficult task of effectively addressing the homeless
issue and the need to make most effective use of public funds.
d. Pigeon Control
Pulaski Furniture has contracted with the U.S. Department of Agriculture for the removal of pigeons from their facilities. The first phase of this effort, costing $2,500, resulted in elimination of
approximately 400 pigeons. Pulaski Furniture and the Town
of Pulaski are seeking financial participation in the amount of $1,150 from the County for the second phase to ensure the population does not rebound. In e.
effect, Pulaski Furniture would have paid for 50% of the total $5,000 cost, the
Town of Pulaski $1,150 or 23%, the County $1,150 or 23% with the
owner of the Dalton building paying for the remaining $200 or 4%. A map
previously provided to the Board illustrates the distribution of County, Town and other buildings in the Downtown area. I recommend contribution of up to $1,150 less financial participation from owners of other buildings in the area.
e. FOCL Donation
Ratification of a $7,500 donation to FOCL is requested following my authorization to purchase a 1991 Mack DM Roll Off truck from Waste Management at a price of $7,500. The truck will be left on the south side of Claytor Lake specifically to be used to empty roll off containers filled with
wood debris from the Lake Clean-up operation. The boat driver would also
operate the roll-off truck allowing for immediate unloading of
containers filled with debris. Debris would be dumped a
short distance from one of three pull out points on the lake and subsequently burned. As noted in a recent weekly update, the cost of the newly purchased truck should be more than offset by revenue from the sale of one of two existing road tractors and one of three
existing tank trailers, all of which were previously used to haul leachate
from the old Cloyd’s Mountain Landfill.
