AGREEMENT
THIS AGREEMENT is made this _____ day of ____________________ 2003 by and between
the COUNTY OF ALBEMARLE (the “County”), the CITY OF CHARLOTTESVILLE (the “City”)(collectively
referred to hereinafter as the “local governing bodies”) and the CHARLOTTESVILLE ALBEMARLE
SOCIETY FOR THE PREVENTION OF CRUELTY TO ANIMALS (“SPCA”), a Virginia nonstock
corporation.
1. Purpose.
SPCA owns and operates an Animal Shelter in the County. It is desired by all the parties that
SPCA will, at its Animal Shelter, impound and care for all animals delivered by representatives of the local
governing bodies, and receive and impound stray animals as turned in by residents of the local governing
bodies who are not the owners of the animals, in accordance with Va. Code § 3.1-796.96, as amended,
and associated state regulations.
The purpose of this Agreement is to set forth the terms, conditions and compensation that the
local governing bodies agree to pay to SPCA for care of such animals on an annual basis and to set forth
the terms, conditions and compensation the local governing bodies will pay to SPCA for construction of
the new SPCA facility.
2. Definitions.
Animal: Shall not include agricultural animals
Animal Shelter: Means a facility, other than a private residential dwelling and its surrounding grounds,
that is used to house or contain animals and that is owned, operated, or maintained by a
nongovernmental entity including, but not limited to, a humane society, animal welfare organization,
society for the prevention of cruelty to animals, or any other organization operating for the purpose of
finding permanent adoptive homes for animals.
Biting Animals: Animals that have bitten a person.
Killer Dogs: Dogs that have killed or injured valuable livestock or a pet belonging to a person other than
the owner.
Owned Dogs or Cats: Dogs or cats previously adopted out by the SPCA shelter or dogs or cats whose
owners are known or discovered during the period of stay at the SPCA shelter.
Rightful Owner: A person with a right of property in the animal
Stray Dogs or Cats: Dogs or cats for whom no owner is known at the time of receipt at the SPCA shelter
or discovered prior to disposition either by adoption or destruction.
3. Term of Agreement.
This Agreement shall be effective on July 1, 2003 and shall continue in effect for one year. The
Agreement shall automatically renew for periods of one calendar year unless terminated by any or all of
the parties hereto upon one (1) calendar year written notice.
4. Compensation for Annual Operations Costs.
The local governing bodies agree to pay a reasonable fee to SPCA for board and associated
costs for the City’s and County’s stray dogs and cats. Compensation will be based on the most recent
5
annual Virginia Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services Animal Report filed prior to the local
governing bodies’ ensuing fiscal year’s budget cycle submitted with the SPCA’s budget request. Funding
will be adjusted to reflect submission of the prior year’s annual State animal record report numbers, if
SPCA submits the report to the local governing bodies by January 15th of each year.
SPCA will maintain records regarding the number of cats and dogs received at the shelter from
each local governing body. These records will be used to distinguish cost allocation for the City and the
County and any adjustments on an annual basis.
The local governing bodies agree to make payments to SPCA on a quarterly basis.
5. Payment Formula.
The local governing bodies will pay SPCA an annual fee based on a specific formula and
reimbursement rate. The formula is based on the cost of what the local governing bodies could
reasonably expect to pay to provide an animal pound that meets Virginia law and regulations. The daily
reimbursement rate may be reexamined and revised by written agreement of all parties to this
Agreement.
a. Calculation of Rate for Dogs:
Rate paid per dog is based on SPCA’s annual Virginia Department of Agriculture and
Consumer Services Animal Report preceding the local governing bodies’ annual budget
submittal process. Rate is $100 per dog, in accordance with the following fee formula:
b. Fee Formula for Dogs:
1. Identify total number of dogs identified on the annual Virginia Department of
Agriculture and Consumer Services Animal Report
2. Subtract the number of dogs “surrendered by owners”
3. Subtotal, and subtract number of dogs “on hand” as of January 1
4. Subtotal, and subtract the number of dogs “reclaimed by owners”
5. Total remaining number of dogs and multiply by rate of $100 per animal for total fee
to be paid by local governing bodies
6. Divide fee by each jurisdiction, based on shelter records of location where animals
were found
c. Calculation of Rate for Cats:
Rate paid per cat is based on SPCA’s annual Virginia Department of Agriculture and
Consumer Services Animal Report of the year preceding the local governing bodies
annual budget submittal process. Rate is $100 per cat brought to the Animal Shelter by
the local Animal Control Officers (herein referred to as ACOs). Rate is $50 per cat
brought to the Animal Shelter by residents of the City or the County in accordance with
the following fee formula.
d. Fee Formula for Cats:
1. Identify total number of cats based on the Virginia Department of Agriculture and
Consumer Services Animal Report
2. Subtract the number of cats “surrendered by owners” from this number
3. Subtotal, and subtract the number of cats “on hand” as of January 1
4. Subtotal, and subtract the number of cats “reclaimed by owners”
5. Identify the number of cats brought in to the shelter by ACOs
6
6. Subtract the total number of cats brought into the shelter by ACO’s from the total
number of cats identified at the end of step 4
7. Multiply the number of cats identified in #5 by $100 and the number of cats identified
in #6 by $50 for total fee paid by local governing bodies
8. Divide fee by each jurisdiction, based on shelter records identifying the location
where animals were found
SPCA agrees to keep and maintain detailed written records of any unexpected or unusual
expenses incurred to shelter cats and dogs in accordance with this Agreement and applicable laws and
regulations. The local governing bodies will consider providing funds for these expenses as part of their
regular annual budgeting schedule, it being expressly understood that the local governing bodies are not
obligated to provide such funds.
6. Fines.
Compensation is based on results listed on SPCA’s annual Virginia Department of Agriculture
and Consumer Services Animal Report from the previous year and subject to SPCA’s adherence to
Virginia law or regulations. If the State charges the local governing bodies fines or civil penalties for any
violations by SPCA of Virginia law or regulations, then the City and/or County shall have the right to set-
off the amount of the fine from the next-owing quarterly payment due to the SPCA pursuant to this
Agreement.
7. Capital Contributions.
SPCA will construct a new Animal Shelter facility in accordance with the plans approved in 2001
by the local governing bodies and State veterinarian officials. The facility is scheduled for completion in
2004. If the facility is not built or completed, SPCA will return all capital contributions received from the
local governing bodies to each locality. The facility shall be constructed and maintained in strict
accordance with all Virginia laws and regulations regarding animal shelter facilities.
Subject to annual appropriations by the City and County, each local governing body agrees to
make a capital contribution of $50,000 to SPCA on an annual basis for a period of five (5) years
beginning fiscal year 2002-03, for a total contribution of $250,000 per jurisdiction. Such capital
contributions will be made by each locality to the SPCA shortly after July 1 of each year.

Attachment 4
RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE ISSUANCE OF
GENERAL OBLIGATION SCHOOL BONDS, SERIES 2003A,
OF THE COUNTY OF ALBEMARLE, VIRGINIA,
IN A PRINCIPAL AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED $7,205,000
TO BE SOLD TO THE VIRGINIA PUBLIC SCHOOL AUTHORITY
AND PROVIDING FOR THE FORM AND DETAILS THEREOF
WHEREAS, the Board of Supervisors (the “Board”) of the County of Albemarle, Virginia (the “County”),
has determined that it is necessary and expedient to borrow a principal amount not to exceed $7,205,000 and to
issue its general obligation school bonds for the purpose of financing certain capital projects for school purposes;
and
WHEREAS, the County will hold a public hearing, duly noticed, on October 1, 2003, on the issuance of
the Bonds (as hereinafter defined) in accordance with the requirements of Section 15.2-2606, Code of Virginia
1950, as amended (the “Virginia Code”); and
WHEREAS, the School Board of the County has, by resolution adopted on August 14, 2003, requested
the Board to authorize the issuance of the Bonds and consented to the issuance of the Bonds; and
WHEREAS, the Bond Sale Agreement (as defined below) shall indicate that $7,205,000 is the amount of
proceeds requested (the “Proceeds Requested”) from the Virginia Public School Authority (the “VPSA”) in
connection with the sale of the Bonds; and
WHEREAS, the VPSA’s objective is to pay the County a purchase price for the Bonds which, in VPSA’s
judgment, reflects the Bonds’ market value (the “VPSA Purchase Price Objective”), taking into consideration such
factors as the amortization schedule the County has requested for the Bonds relative to the amortization
schedules requested by other localities, the purchase price to be received by VPSA for its bonds and other
market conditions relating to the sale of the VPSA’s bonds; and
WHEREAS, such factors may result in the Bonds having a purchase price other than par and
consequently (i) the County may have to issue a principal amount of Bonds that is less than the Proceeds
Requested but in no case greater than the Proceeds Requested in order to receive an amount of proceeds that is
substantially equal to the Proceeds Requested, or (ii) if the maximum authorized principal amount of the Bonds
set forth in Section 1 below does not exceed the amount of the discount the purchase price to be paid to the
County, given the VPSA Purchase Price Objective and market conditions, will be less than the Proceeds
Requested;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF THE COUNTY OF
ALBEMARLE, VIRGINIA:
1. Authorization of Bonds and Use of Proceeds. The Board hereby determines that it is
advisable to contract a debt and issue and sell its general obligation school bonds in an aggregate principal
amount not to exceed $7,205,000 (the “Bonds”) for the purpose of financing certain capital projects for school
purposes, including without limitation, the projects described in Exhibit B. The Board hereby authorizes the
issuance and sale of the Bonds in the form and upon the terms established pursuant to this Resolution.
2. Sale of the Bonds. It is determined to be in the best interest of the County to accept the offer of
the VPSA to purchase from the County, and to sell to the VPSA, the Bonds at a price, determined by the VPSA to
be fair and accepted by the County Executive, that is substantially equal to the Proceeds Requested, except that
the Bonds may be sold for a purchase price not lower than 95% of the Proceeds Requested if issuing the Bonds
in the maximum principal amount authorized by Section 1 of this Resolution is insufficient, given the VPSA
14
Purchase Price Objective and market conditions, to generate an amount of proceeds substantially equal to the
Proceeds Requested. The County Executive and such officer or officers of the County as either may designate,
any of whom may act, are hereby authorized and directed to enter into a Bond Sale Agreement dated as of
October 1, 2003 (the “Bond Sale Agreement”), with the VPSA providing for the sale of the Bonds to the VPSA.
The Bond Sale Agreement shall be in substantially the form submitted to the Board at this meeting, which form is
hereby approved.
3. Details of the Bonds. The Bonds shall be dated the date of issuance and delivery of the Bonds;
shall be designated “General Obligation School Bonds, Series 2003A”; shall bear interest from the date of delivery
thereof payable semi-annually on each January 15 and July 15 beginning July 15, 2004 (each an “Interest
Payment Date”), at the rates established in accordance with Section 4 of this Resolution; and shall mature on July
15 in the years (each a “Principal Payment Date”) and in the amounts set forth on Schedule I attached hereto (the
“Principal Installments”), subject to the provisions of Section 4 of this Resolution.
4. Interest Rates and Principal Installments. The County Executive is hereby authorized and
directed to accept the interest rates on the Bonds established by the VPSA, provided that each interest rate shall
be ten one-hundredths of one percent (0.10%) over the interest rate to be paid by the VPSA for the corresponding
principal payment date of the bonds to be issued by the VPSA (the “VPSA Bonds”), a portion of the proceeds of
which will be used to purchase the Bonds, and provided further that the true interest cost of the Bonds does not
exceed six percent (6.00%) per annum. The Interest Payment Dates and the Principal Installments are subject to
change at the request of the VPSA. The County Executive is hereby authorized and directed to accept changes
in the Interest Payment Dates and the Principal Installments at the request of the VPSA, provided that the
aggregate principal amount of the Bonds shall not exceed the amount authorized by this Resolution and provided
further that the final maturity of the Bonds occurs no later than December 31, 2024. The execution and delivery of
the Bonds as described in Section 8 hereof shall conclusively evidence such interest rates established by the
VPSA and Interest Payment Dates and the Principal Installments requested by the VPSA as having been so
accepted as authorized by this Resolution.
5. Form of the Bonds. The Bonds shall be initially in the form of a single, temporary typewritten
bond substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A.
6. Payment; Paying Agent and Bond Registrar. The following provisions shall apply to the
Bonds:
(a) For as long as the VPSA is the registered owner of the Bonds, all payments of principal,
premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds shall be made in immediately available funds to the VPSA at, or before
11:00 a.m. on the applicable Interest Payment Date, Principal Payment Date or date fixed for prepayment or
redemption, or if such date is not a business day for Virginia banks or for the Commonwealth of Virginia, then at
or before 11:00 a.m. on the business day next preceding such Interest Payment Date, Principal Payment Date or
date fixed for prepayment or redemption.
(b) All overdue payments of principal and, to the extent permitted by law, interest shall bear interest
at the applicable interest rate or rates on the Bonds.
(c) SunTrust Bank, Richmond, Virginia, is designated as bond registrar and payment agent for the
Bonds (the “Bond Registrar”). The County may, in its sole discretion, replace at any time the Bond Registrar with
another qualified bank or trust company as successor Bond Registrar.
7. Prepayment or Redemption. The Principal Installments of the Bonds held by the VPSA coming
due on or before July 15, 2013, and the definitive Bonds for which the Bonds held by the VPSA may be
exchanged that mature on or before July 15, 2013, are not subject to prepayment or redemption prior to their
stated maturities. The Principal Installments of the Bonds held by the VPSA coming due after July 15, 2013, and
the definitive bonds for which the Bonds held by the VPSA may be exchanged that mature after July 15, 2013, are
subject to prepayment or redemption at the option of the County prior to their stated maturities in whole or in part,
on any date on or after July 15, 2013, upon payment of the prepayment or redemption prices (expressed as

registered mail not more than ninety (90) and not less than sixty (60) days before the date fixed for prepayment or
redemption.
