for this year’s National Disability Employment Awareness Month; and
WHEREAS, nearly one in five Americans have some type of disability, making people with disabilities the nation’s
largest minority; and
WHEREAS, our community needs to harness the potential of all of its citizens so that our economy can continue to
grow and our labor force can meet the challenges on the horizon; and
WHEREAS, work is fundamental to identity, providing the opportunity to lead a more inde pendent, self-directed life
for all people; and
WHEREAS, we recognize that disability is a natural part of the human experience and affirm that disability in no
way should limit a person’s ability to make choices, pursue meaningful careers, or participate fully
in all aspects of life; and
WHEREAS, all of us have benefited from the achievements and contributions of people with disabilities; and
WHEREAS, attitudinal barriers can hinder people with disabilities from realizing their full potential; and
WHEREAS, education and public awareness are the most powerful tools for increasing sensitivity and achieving
full integration and inclusion of people with disabilities into all aspects of life;

PROCLAMATION
WHEREAS, violence against women, children, and men continues to become more prevalent as a social
problem in our society; and
WHEREAS, the problems of domestic violence are not confined to any grou p or groups of people but
cross all economic, racial and societal barriers, and are supported by societal indifference; and
WHEREAS, the crime of domestic violence violates an individual’s privacy, dignity, security, and humanity,
due to systematic use of physical, emotional, sexual, psychological and economic control and/or abuse, with the
impact of this crime being wide-ranging; and
WHEREAS, in our quest to impose sanctions on those who break the law by perpetrating violence, we
must also meet the needs of victims of domestic violence who often suffer grave physical, psychological and
financial losses; and
WHEREAS, it is victims of domestic violence themselves who have been in the forefront of efforts to bring
peace and equality to the home; and
WHEREAS, no one person, organization, agency or community can eliminate domestic violence on their
own—we must work together to educate our entire population about what can be done to prevent such violence,
support victims/survivors and their families, and increase support for agencies providing services to those
community members; and
WHEREAS, the Shelter for Help in Emergency has led the way in the Albemarle County in addressing

Help in Emergency, that I, Ann H. Mallek, Chair of the Albemarle County Board of Supervisors, do hereby proc laim
the month of October 2013 as DOMESTIC VIOLENCE AWARENESS MONTH, and urge all citizens to actively

(a) The Authority may adopt an inducement resolution conditioned upon the subsequent furnishing of

resolution adopted pursuant to such conditions.
(b) The Authority may, at its option, require the furnishing of appraisals, evaluations or reports respecting
the Project or any portion thereof. The Authority may retain advisors and consult ants to advise it regarding any
Project or other action which it is requested to undertake by any Applicant. All costs, fees and ex penses of such
appraisals, reports, consultants and advisors incurred by the Authority after prior notification to the Appli cant shall

report describing the status of its proposed financing no later than the last day of the second month after the

Applicant shall promptly notif y the Authority of any significant or material changes to any information previously
furnished by the Applicant to the Authority.

Section 6.2 Annual Reports of Applicants. Each Applicant, after the issuance and sale of the

ARTICLE VII
ENFORCEMENT
Section 7.1 Enforcement of Provisions. The Authority may refuse to consider or adopt any
inducement resolutions, Financing Documents or any other matters presented for its consideration if the Applicant
has failed to comply with the requirements of these Rules.
Section 7.2 Repeal of Actions Previously Taken. The Authority may rescind or repeal any
inducement resolution previously adopted by it or any other action taken by the Authority because of failure of the
Applicant to com ply with the provisions of these Rules or because of substantial changes in the management,
ownership, Project plan or financial circumstances of the Applicant; provided, however, no inducement resolution
or action taken by the Authority shall be repealed or rescinded unless prior written notice of such proposed action
shall have been mailed to the Applicant at least three (3) weeks before the date upon which such action is
proposed to be taken. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such action shall be taken b y the Authority which will
impair or adversely affect the interests of the holders of the Authority's Bonds.
ARTICLE VIII
STATEMENTS OF POLICY
Section 8.1 Construction, Operation and Effect of Rules. These Rules are intended as guidelines
to promote and insure the orderly and consistent consideration of Applications, Financing Documents, and other
matters brought before the Authority. For good cause, application of these Rules may be modified and waived
upon a case-by-case basis upon the consent of the Authority. Any action taken by the Authority not in conformity
with these Rules shall, nevertheless, be fully effective as if taken in compliance with these Rules. It is, however,
the policy of the Authority that each Applicant comply fully and completely with these Rules, and failure to comply
with these Rules may constitute grounds for refusal by the Authority to take any action requested.
Section 8.2 Approval of Inducement Resolution Not to Constitute an Endorsement of Applicant.
The purpose of the Authority, as set forth in the Act, is to promote industry and develop trade by inducing
manufacturing, industrial, governmental and com mercial enterprises to locate in or remain in the Commonwealth of
Virginia. Pursuant to the Act, the Authority's powers shall be exercised for the benefit of the inhabitants of Virginia
through the promotion of their safety, health, welfare, convenience or prosperity. Accordingly, the Authority's
decision to adopt an inducement resolution or take other action will be based largely upon these factors. Further,
the Act prohibits the Authority from operating any enterprise or Project. Since the Authority is a conduit for
providing tax-exempt financing to promote the commerce and industry of the Commonwealth of Virginia and the
County of Albemarle, and given the express prohibition against operating enterprises or Projects, the Authority
believes it is improper for it to inquire into matters relating to the business judgment of the management of any
Applicant not relevant to the foregoing factors. The Authority may, however, examine the business decisions and
other aspects of management of the Applicant should it deem such matters relevant to the authorization, issuance
and sale of its Bonds.
In view of the foregoing limitations, the adoption of an inducement resolution or any other action taken by
the Authority is not to be used by any Applicant in any manner whatsoever as an endorsement or approval of the
Applicant, its policies or its management.
18
Section 8.3 Security for Payment of Bonds. The Authority will require a showing that any issue of
its Bonds is fully and adequately secured. If the Bonds are secured by a lien upon or security interest in the Project
financed with the proceeds of such Bonds, the Authority may re quire an appraisal of the Project showing that it is
valued in an amount sufficient to pay the outstanding principal amount of the Bonds issued to finance such Project.
Section 8.4 Compliance with Rules. These Rules were adopted by the Authority to assist in the
orderly and expeditious conduct of its business. As stated in Section 3.2 of these Rules, the Authority has reserved
the right to require that any Applicant strictly conform to the requirements of the Rules. Among other things, the
Rules require that each Applicant inform the Authority of any new developments or material changes in information
which has been submitted to the Authority, either orally or in writing. Matters concerning the structure of the
financing, the prospective purchasers of the Bonds, and the security for payment of the Bonds are items of
particular interest to the Authority; however, the Authority expects to be kept informed of all material changes to
information submitted to it.
By submitting an Application to the Authority, the Applicant agrees to abide by these Rules. Thus, the
burden is placed upon the Applicant to review and to comply with these Rules. The prin cipal sanction which may
be applied by the Authority against any Applicant for failure to comply with the Rules would be a refusal to take any
action requested by the Applicant. Such a refusal might result in embarrassment to or considerable financial
expense on the part of the Applicant. To avoid such embarrassment or ex pense, the Authority urges each
Applicant to keep the Authority fully informed of any new developments or material changes to information
previously submitted to the Authority, including in particular, changes in the contemplated financing structure or the
proposed security for the Bonds. As noted above, the burden is upon the Applicant to convey this information to
the Authority in a timely manner. What constitutes "timely" depends upon the circumstances of each case;
however, each Applicant is urged to provide all such information before considera ble time and expense is incurred
upon matters which may prove unacceptable to the Authority. Any such communications should be made directly
to the Authority's officers, directors, and counsel.
Notes to Application
1. Applicants are referred to the Authority's Rules and Procedures for provisions governing the
submission of the application to the Authority.
2. Applications and all exhibits should be submitted to:
Clerk of the Board of Supervisors of Albemarle County,
4th Floor, County Office Building, 401 McIntire Road,
Charlottesville, Virginia 22902-4596,
at least ten (10) days before the meeting at which the application is to be considered.
3. A $500.00 application fee for issues less than $25.0 million or a $1,000.00 application f ee for
issues $25.0 million or greater, made payable to the County of Albemarle, should be submitted to the Authority’s
administrative agency, the County of Albemarle, with the application or at the time the application is considered.
4. Questions concerning the qualification of a project or certain expenses of economic development
revenue bond financing or other legal questions relating to the issuance of bonds should be directed to the
Authority's counsel or to recognized bond counsel.

Bonds in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $40,000,000. The Authority will use the proceeds of the
Bonds to reimburse or finance costs of the CIP Project and pay the costs of issuing the Bonds. Pursuant to the

the appropriation by the Board of Supervisors from time to time of sufficient amounts for suc h purposes. As

the Financing Lease. The County Executive is authorized to determine, in consultation with the Financial Advisor
as to what would improve the marketing of the Bonds at attractive interest rates, which one or more of the following
County-owned properties shall constitute the “Property” for purposes of the Ground Lease and the Financing
Lease: (a) the 5th Street Office Building, (b) the Crozet Library, and (c) the Rio Property Library and County
storage facility. Payments due under the Financing Lease will be c redited in an amount and time to the extent the
County makes all Basic Payments and Additional Payments due under the Financing Agreement with respect to
the Bonds. The plan of financing the CIP Project shall contain such additional requirements and provi sions as may
be approved by the County Executive and the Chairman or Vice Chairman of the Authority.
2. The Board of Supervisors, while recognizing that it is not empowered to make any binding
commitment to make appropriations beyond the current fiscal year, hereby states its intent to make appropriations
in future fiscal years in amounts sufficient to make all payments due under the Financing Agreement, which
payments, as applicable, shall be credited toward the payment of amounts due under the Financing L ease, and
hereby recommends that future Board of Supervisors do likewise during the term of the Financing Agreement and,
if applicable, the Financing Lease. The Board of Supervisors hereby confirms that the CIP Project is essential to
the efficient operation of the County and the Board of Supervisors anticipates that the CIP Project will continue to
be essential to the operation of the County during the term of the Financing Agreement and the Financing Lease.
3. The Chairman of the Board of Supervisors and the County Executive, either of whom may act, are
hereby authorized and directed to execute the Documents to which the County is a signatory, which shall be in
substantially the forms circulated prior to this meeting, which are hereby approved, with such completions,
omissions, insertions and changes not inconsistent with this Resolution as may be approved by the officer signing

any such completions, omissions, insertions and changes. The County Attorney is hereby authorized to cause the
Ground Lease, the Financing Lease, the Assignment Agreement and other documents as are necessary to be
recorded in the Clerk’s Office of the Circuit Court of A lbemarle County.
4. In making completions to the Supplemental Financing Agreement and the Financing Lease, the
County Executive, in collaboration with Financial Advisor and the Authority, shall provide for Annual Payments

principal amount; and (d) being sold to the purchaser thereof at a price not less than 98% of the aggregate

Executive is also authorized to approve a lesser principal amount for the Bonds, a maturity schedule (including
serial maturities and term maturities for the Bonds) and the redemptions provisions of the Bonds, all as the County
Executive shall determine to be in the best interest of the County.
5. The Board of Supervisors approves the following terms of the sale of the Bonds:
(a) The Bonds shall be sold through a competitive sale or a nego tiated sale, as the County
Executive, in collaboration with the Financial Advisor and the Authority, determines to be in the best interests of the
County.
(b) If the County Executive determines that the Bonds shall be sold by competitive sale, the
County Executive is authorized to receive bids for such Bonds and award such Bonds to the bidder providing the
lowest “true” or “Canadian” interest cost, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 4. Following a competitive
sale, the County Executive shall f ile a certificate with the Authority and the Board of Supervisors setting forth the
final terms of the Bonds. The actions of the County Executive in selling the Bonds by competitive sale shall be
conclusive, and no further action with respect to the sale and issuance of the Bonds shall be necessary on the part
