The Board of Trustees of the Jefferson-Madison Regional Library requests the use
$21.070 in carryover funds accumulated from our two prior IlScal years (1990-1992).
is $21.070 is in excess of the allowable limits in our Regional Agreement. The Board of
rustees delayed making this request from Albemarle County as the status of State Aid
f nding was uncertain until the close of the 1993 Legislative session and the annual budget
rocess.
In developing this request, the Albemarle Trustees felt the pressures on the County
udget were great this year and proposed the carryover be utilized to pay for the additional
hours proposed in the regular operating budget for Scottsville and Crozet, totaling
9 370.
These are extra base hours and substitute hours for the 3rd part-time staff member
t Crozet and Scottsville. These hours are essential as there are no longer substitutes from
lsewhere in the system for vacations, training and emergencies. The impact on the
perating budgets of these two branches should be delayed as there are one-time projects -
ainting and repairs in this year's operating request.
In addition, the remainder of the funds - $11,700 - is requested to partially offset
ome of the $18,000 in the CIP for furnishing the back room of Northside.

County Executiv~~
Albemarle County Board
March 19, 1993
RE: status Report - Recyclinq proqram
tached is a status report for the County's recycling program
epared by Mr. Robert McKinley, Recycling Program Coordinator.
r program is basically funded in the proposed FY 93-94 budget
th the exception of Item 5.3 Licensing Requirements (see report).
you know, we have been discussing with the haulers the
velopment of a County Code amendment requiring licensing of
ulers in order to standardize the service of recycling in
bemarle County. In doing so, the haulers feel that if recycling
going to be required to be provided by all of the haulers, then
me type of subsidy for retro-fitting or purchasing proper
uipment to handle the recycling effort in the County would be
propriate.
. Higgins has developed an attachment which outlines the various
tions for providing a subsidy for the haulers. A copy of a draft
unty Code amendment regarding the above mentioned licensing
quirements is also attached and we will need you to adopt a
solution of intent to amend the County Code and set a pUblic
aring for April 14th. My suggestion is that we discuss this
tter at your Monday, March 22nd worksession at the end of the
y, prior to finalizing the various changes to the FY 93-94 budget
d setting of any tax rates. Should you have any questions,
ease do not hesitate to call me.

commendation: Establish a separate drop-off center at Ivy for
meowners.
atus: Due to space limitations at Ivy and the added expenses
at a separate drop-off container entail, it has been decided to
low homeowners to use the existing containers at Ivy for our
gged commingled system. This approach was supported by the
cycling committee. For safety reasons, it is recommended that
h meowners not be invited to participate in the program until the
s'te modifications are complete.
st: Container rental cost is included in bid prices for 5.1

commendation: Analyze program results before considering other
ternatives (drop-off centers, mobile centers), or making
cycling mandatory.
atus: On going.
st: $10,000 has been identified for FY 93-94 to provide
alysis and additional investigation or studies that may be

5.3 Licensing - Subsidy Options
he costs associated with processing newspaper and commingled
ecyclables, labor, maintenance, advertising and promotional
xpenses can be considered an indirect support cost or
'subsidy" to the hauler. At projected recovery levels of 170
ons/month for 1993-1994 this indirect subsidy will be
pproximately $151,000.
n order to collect blue bag recyclables and newspaper a hauler
ust either replace, modify or augment his existing trash
ollection equipment. This can represent a significant up
ront capital investment. These costs are fixed regardless of
ow many households participate in the recycling program. Of
he nine (9) programs that formed the basis for Andrea Trank's
eport, three (3) provided direct subsidies to private haulers.
here are at least three different methods by which the County
ould directly subsidize the hauler recycling program: 1) A
onthly subsidy paid to each hauler based on the total number
f customers; 2) A monthly subsidy based on only those
ouseholds participating in recycling; and 3) A subsidy based
n the tonnage of recyclables collected by each hauler.
For All Households
nder this method, the hauler would receive a per household/mo.
ubsidy based on the total number of customers regardless of
ow many actually participate in the recycling program.
aulers would be required to submit customer names, addresses
nd telephone numbers for verification purposes.
Advantages:
a) No tracking of actual participation required.
b) Haulers are not penalized for non-participating
customers.
Disadvantages:
a) Requires obtaining customer lists generally
guarded by haulers and extensive verification. It
may prove difficult keeping track of customers served
each month. There could be a great deal of switching
from one hauler to another.
b) There is less incentive for the hauler to promote
recycling since the subsidy is the same whether
households recycle or not.
c) There would be no incentive to include trash in
with recyclables.
tachment B - Subsidy options
rch 19, 1993

f this type of direct subsidy was based upon $2.00 per
ouseholdfmo., the program would cost an additional
384,000fyr. based on the estimated 16,000 households served by
aulers. (See attached exhibit).
Households
scenario, the hauler would receive a per householdfmo.
ubsidy for only those households which set out recyclables for
ollection at least once during the month. Rather than rely on
auler verification of the actual number of households setting
ut recyclables, a formula could be developed based on a
ational average waste generation per household and actual
auler weight tickets to determine an estimated number of
ustomers for each hauler. For the first year, a set
articipation rate would be assumed. The number of
articipating households for each hauler would be determined by
ultiplying the estimated customers by the assumed
articipation rate. This would then be multiplied by the
ubsidy per household to determine each hauler's monthly
ubsidy. Actual recycling weights could be used to calibrate
he formula for following years.
Advantages:
a) It is to the hauler's advantage to promote
recycling and increase participation.
b) No lists of customer names or numbers would be
required therefore, verification not required.
c) There would be no incentive to include trash in
with recyclables.
Disadvantages:
a) The same participation rates are assumed for all
haulers.
ased on a 75% monthly participation and a subsidy of $2.00 per
ouseholdfmo. this option would cost approximately $288,000.
See attached exhibit).
er Ton Subsid
nder this option, the hauler would be subsidized based on the
ctual tonnage of recyclable material collected.
Advantages:
a) Payment is based upon the real program goal, the
amount of material being diverted from the landfill.
ttachment B - Subsidy Options
arch 19, 1993
age 3
It is to the hauler's advantage to promote recycling
and increase participation.
b) Since haulers will be required to obtain scale
weights anyway, this would not be an added burden.
Therefore, it is the easiest to administer with no
customer lists required.
Disadvantages:
a) This type of subsidy might favor those haulers
working the urban ring where more recyclable material
is believed to be generated.
b) It is possible that haulers might include trash in
with recyclables in order to increase recycling
weights. The proposed part time staffing of the
center should reduce this possibility.
t a subsidy of $100/ton this option would cost an additional
192,000. (See attached eXhibit).
rams
f the three (3) programs which provided direct subsidies, one
rovided a subsidy of $1.50/mo. for only those households which
articipated in the recycling program. This subsidy remained
onstant for three years and then was eliminated. Another,
rovided a $2.50/mo. subsidy in the first year for all
ouseholds regardless of whether they participated or not.
his subsidy dropped to $1.50 in the second year and then was
liminated. In the third program, each of five haulers was
nder contract with the county to provide recycling service for
specific number of households. A subsidy pool was
stablished with each hauler drawing from the pool based on
ctual participation.
n four (4) of the nine programs, marketing of recyclable
aterials was provided for by the municipality. Only one of
he programs accepted commingled materials. Under Albemarle
ounty's proposed ordinance, the County would provide for the
rocessing and marketing of newspaper and commingled materials.
o a certain extent, tip fee avoidance at $40/ton, may also be
onsidered a subsidy.

Attachment C
RECYCLING ORDINANCE SUMMARY
ere are four major elements in the Draft Recycling Ordinance:
Article III. Sec.16-14 requires the reporting of recycling
data by haulers. Subsection (b), which may be adopted at the
Board's option, requires businesses to report recycling weights.
T ose businesses, including haulers, who exclusively use one of
t e County authorized collection centers, permitted haulers, or
ndors known to the County (Coiners or Bryant Salvage) are not
quired to report. The intent is to capture recycling weights
om those companies which are either back shipping recyclable
terials to their home offices or are using a vendor or refuse
uler that we would not normally receive information from. Only
relative few businesses would fall under subsection (b). Since
eir input has not yet been solicited, the Board may consider
ding subsection (b) at a later date.
Article III. Sec.16-15 requires all trash haulers doing
siness in Albemarle County to collected newspaper, glass
ttles and jars, metal cans and plastic soda, milk and water
ttles from their residential customers. While it is not
ndatory for a homeowner to recycle, it is mandatory that a
uler pick up recyclables that his customer sets out for
llection. The County provides for the processing of newspaper
d commingled recyclables.
is section also requires trash haulers to offer recycling
rvices to apartment complexes where they provide trash service.
e key word is offer. The hauler does not have to provide a
cycling service unless the apartment management accepts the
fer.
Article III. Sec.16-16 specifies that trash haulers must
ovide weekly, or at a minimum bi-weekly, recycling service for
sidential customers on the same day trash is collected. The
rpose is to require a consistent level of service. Studies
dicate that providing recycling service on a different day than
ash service confuses many homeowners, leading to drastically
wer participation rates.
Division 2 requires that all trash haulers must apply for
d be issued a Permit by the County in order to engage in trash
llecting within the County. The application must specify a
cycling plan in accordance with the ordinance. If a hauler
es not plan to participate in the County bagged commingled
ogram then he must give us details on a satisfactory
ternative program.
COMMENDATION: The Board adopt a resolution of intent to amend
apter 16 of the County Code to include these recycling
ovisions.

Attachment C
RECYCLING ORDINANCE SUMMARY
T ere are four major elements in the Draft Recycling Ordinance:
Article III. Sec.16-14 requires the reporting of recycling
d ta by haulers. Subsection (b), which may be adopted at the
Bard's option, requires businesses to report recycling weights.
T ose businesses, including haulers, who exclusively use one of
t e County authorized collection centers, permitted haulers, or
v ndors known to the County (Coiners or Bryant Salvage) are not
r quired to report. The intent is to capture recycling weights
f om those companies which are either back shipping recyclable
m terials to their home offices or are using a vendor or refuse
h uler that we would not normally receive information from. Only
a relative few businesses would fall under subsection (b). Since
t eir input has not yet been solicited, the Board may consider
a ding subsection (b) at a later date.
Article III, Sec.16-15 requires all trash haulers doing
siness in Albemarle County to collected newspaper, glass
ttles and jars, metal cans and plastic soda, milk and water
ttles from their residential customers. While it is not
ndatory for a homeowner to recycle, it is mandatory that a
uler pick up recyclables that his customer sets out for
llection. The County provides for the processing of newspaper
d commingled recyclables.
is section also requires trash haulers to offer recycling
rvices to apartment complexes where they provide trash service.
e key word is offer. The hauler does not have to provide a
cycling service unless the apartment management accepts the
fer.
Article III, Sec.16-16 specifies that trash haulers must
ovide weekly, or at a minimum bi-weekly, recycling service for
sidential customers on the same day trash is collected. The
rpose is to require a consistent level of service. studies
dicate that providing recycling service on a different day than
ash service confuses many homeowners, leading to drastically
wer participation rates.
Division 2$@@::~:@::~tt:~~ requires that all trash haulers must

apter 16 of the County Code to include these recycling
ovisions.

SALARY SUPPLEMENTS FOR
STATE FUNDED POSITIONS
Plrnose: This report will attempt to address, on a policy basis,
requests from several Constitutional Officers and the
Registrar for the County to consider supplementing the
salary they and their employees presently receive from
the Commonweal th of Virginia. For purposes of this
review, the scope will be limited to the offices of the
Commonweal th' s Attorney, Clerk of the Circuit Court,
Sheriff's Department, Registrar and Joint Security
Complex.
O'~erview: In the process of compiling this report, information on
each of the various offices was solicited from a core
group of jurisdictions which are used by the County for
purposes of wage comparisons either because of their
geographic proximity to Albemarle or population range
similarity.
The jurisdictions surveyed include:
Countv/citv
Augusta County
Charlottesville
Chesterfield County
Fauquier County
Goochland County
Hanover County
James city county/williamsburg
King George County
Loudoun County
Montgomery County
Prince william Co./Manassas
Spotsylvania County
York County/Poquoson

~lalvsis: Office of Commonwealth's Attorney
Albemarle County's Commonwealth Attorney's Office is
presently staffed with a Constitutional Officer, a Deputy
Commonwealth's Attorney, 2 Assistant Commonwealth's
Attorneys, an Administrative secretary, and a Secretary
I for a total of 6 employees. Mr. Camblos has requested
a supplement totaling $26,766 for 3 of his employees in
order to bring their salaries in line with where he
believes they should be.
A review of the 13 core communities surveyed reveals 9
are providing some local supplement in the Commonwealth's
Attorney's Office ranging from a total of $12,426 to
$55,121 with 4 localities providing no local supplement.
Average supplements ranged from $5,000 to $11,000 per
Assistant Attorney. Information on larger localities
submi tted by Mr. Camblos reveals some counties
supplementing the office in an amount in excess of
$200,000 per year (Fairfax).
Sheriff's Department
Albemarle County's Sheriff's Department is presently
staffed with a Constitutional Officer, 10 Deputies and a
secretary for a total of 12 full-time employees. Sheriff
Hawkins has not requested a specific amount of supplement
for his deputies.
A review of the 13 core communities surveyed reveals 8
are providing some local supplement in the Sheriff's
Department ranging from a total of $12,539 to $589,164
wi th 5 locali ties providing no supplement. Average
supplements for Deputies ranged from $4,255 to $7,447 per
Deputy.
In addition, Sheriff Hawkins has requested a supplement
for himself in the amount of $2,185 for a one year period
to compensate him per the State Appropriations Act for a
locality with a population range of 70,000 to 99,999.
The Sheriff indicates that although the Center for Public
Service concurs that Albemarle's population has exceeded
the 70,000 threshold, the official determination will not
be made in time for the Compensation Board to rely on the
figures as it establishes salaries for FY 94. Sheriff
Hawkins request that the County fund the difference for
the one-year period until the State recognizes the new
population figures.
Although no request has been made by the Clerk of the
Circui t Court, the same circumstance exists for her
position as well with the amount needed of $5,796 for the
increase differential in that position. The
Commonwealth's Attorney's salary follows a different
population bracket range.
Clerk of the Circuit Court
The Clerk of the Circuit Court Office is presently
staffed with a Constitutional Officer and 8 Deputy Clerks
for a total of 9 full-time employees. Mrs. Marshall has
not requested a specific amount of supplement.
Of the 13 core communities surveyed, 5 are providing some
level of local supplement ranging from $800 to $9,656
with the average supplement for the Deputies ranging from
$944 to $8,694 annually.
Joint security Complex
The Joint Security Complex is included in this review
because those employees are, for the most part, funded by
the compensation Board as are the other positions
, ..,
reviewed. There are a total of 69 employees at the
CAJSC. Comparisons with other jurisdictions is difficult
in that the Sheriff operates the jail in most localities.
Correctional Officers are on the same pay scale as
Sheriff's Deputies and, therefore, it can be assumed that
supplements in other localities should closely follow
those of the Deputies referenced earlier in this review.
It should be noted that the City and County are jointly
involved in funding for this department and city
concurrence may be necessary to participate in
supplements. At the end of FY 92, both jurisdictions
approved the payment of bonuses to CAJSC employees out of
their excess revenues.
Registrar's Office
The Registrar's Office is presently staffed with a
locally funded position (Assistant Registrar) and the
Registrar whose salary is set by the State and paid by
State funds. Mr. Heilman has specifically requested a
supplement of $1,000 although the Code of Virginia allows
localities to supplement the Registrar's salary up to 10%
of his state salary. Mr. Heilman submitted a separate
review of 15 localities in the 50,000 to 100,000
population range which indicates that 7 of 15 localities
supplemented the Registrar's salary.
Dliscussion: Staff reviewed the feasibility of placing these
employees on the County's pay scale and compensation
system. While it might provide more uniformity in
personnel practices to pursue this alternative, staff
feels that the checks and balances would not be present
to assure uniform application of the merit
review/performance evaluation system as "department
heads" would not be subject to review to ensure
consistency across all departments. This avenue would
also be most costly as the County would incur the first
and second year costs of placing 98 employees on the
County's pay scale plus providing the merit pool for
these employees in our pay for performance system.
Research shows that there are a number of ways that
various localities implement their supplement. Some
provide a fixed amount for each year of service, some
provide a flat sum for each job description, some provide
a percentage that increases with the employee's salary,
while others provide a pool for each office for the
Constitutional Officer to distribute as appropriate.
There does not appear to be any uniform method for
applying supplements.
The Board has indicated a desire to look at alternative
forms of government that would bring more local control
over the various offices discussed. The three
~
Constitutional Officers that are in place in the County
Executive form of government are present in all other
forms currently authorized by state law. Any change
would, therefore, require the establishment of a new form
of county government to be approved by the Virginia
General Assembly.
Rlcommendation: Staff recognizes that this is strictly a policy
issue for the Board to consider as to whether it desires
to begin supplementing state-provided salaries. There is
Ii ttle question that state scales in some instances
appear to be low for the job market in the
Charlottesville-Albemarle area. None of the offices are
experiencing significant turnover, however, several of
the Constitutional Officers believe that this will soon
be an issue.
Should the Board begin supplementing, staff strongly
recommends that a condition of such supplement be an
agreement that the office involved would strictly adhere
to the County's policy manual to avoid differences in
holidays taken, the method by which leave is computed,
and the method by which gr ievances and disputes are
resolved.

Dave Chapman has been practicing law for 13 years; he has
bl en prosecuting for five of those years. and he is extremely
k~owledgeable in all areas of the law.
He is
mc~st definitely chief commonwealth's attorney material. Dave has
m( ny responsibilities as Deputy Commonwealth's Attorney, as well as
t affic court three days each week and Circuit Court on any given
d(y.
Ford Childress has been practicing law for seven years,
al d has been prosecuting for five of those years. He is well-
o ganized, fair and efficient in the performance of his duties.
H s primary responsibility is the Albemarle County General District
curt, which has an incredible number of cases going through it
ecch month.
Cheryl Higgins has been practicing law for six years, and
p'osecuting for five of those years. You may remember that she
c<me to our office from the City Commonwealth's Attorney's Office.
Sle is an excellent prosecutor, and may very well be chief
plosecutor material at some point in the future. I think she is a
g eat asset to the County for a number of reasons, chiefly as a
plosecutor and secondarily because she gives us a perspective from
a woman's point of view, which is very helpful in a number of
Cc sese Her primary area of responsibility is Juvenile and Domestic
RE lations District Court, with a secondary responsibility of
C'rcuit Court.
Carrie Edwards is my Administrative Assistant. She has
wcrked for me for four and a half years, and she is invaluable.
See is smart, extremely well-organized, and takes the initiative in
getting the job done. Carrie has unlimited potential within the
s~stem, some of which will come with experience and maturity. Her
pl imary area of responsibility is the criminal docket and the
mcnaging of the cases in our courts. You might liken her job to a
tlaffic controller of the criminal caseload.
Lydia Layne has been working as a Secretary in the
Ccmmonwealth's Attorney's Office for seven years. She was very
m~ch an under-utilized asset with my predecessors, but her role has
e>panded quite a bit since I took office. Her primary area of
responsibility is the physical plant within the office, the budget,
ard office supplies.

These five people really do make my job easier and more
joyable. My focus with this request, is to receive from the
unty salary supplements for Ford Childress, Cheryl Higgins and
dia Layne. I would like to see both Ford and Cheryl making
0,000.00 each, and for Ms. Layne to be making $18,984.00.
There are a number of compelling reasons why the County
supplemental salaries in the Commonwealth's Attorneys
o fice. First and foremost, these requested increases are more in
l'ne with other localities, given their experience and the high
c st of living in Albemarle County.
As you know, the legal responsibility of this office is
prosecute those individuals who violate the laws of the
mmonwealth. There is no requirement for us to prosecute county
arges or to perform any services outside of the office, such as
cture, teach, etc. But that is not what we are about, we want to
involved as much as possible, and to do as good a job as
ssible, both in and out of the office. It is because my staff is
a good as it is, that we are able to perform all the duties we do,
without additional assistance.
Secondly, the County is re-defining the job description
d salary for the County Attorney who will replace George st.
hn, which makes this an appropriate time for the County to be re-
sessing, both from a practical and an equitable standpoint, the
laries to be paid to county and commonwealth attorneys.
In the general district court alone, there is over
$100,000.00 in revenue to the County each year. I do not have the
figures for the juvenile court or the circuit court, but I am sure
it is a large amount. In addition, I estimate that the attorneys
in this office spend up to 25% of their time dealing with matters
ot er than Commonwealth cases; all of which has a direct benefit to
th County.
Enclosed is a document that surprised me, and should
prise you as well, which reflects salary supplements for a
ber of Commonwealth's Attorney's offices in the state. What is
shown on these sheets are the attorney positions that are fully
ded by the localities. (Charlottesville is included, because I
w for a fact that there is a funded position in that office.)
ave added to these documents the populations of the localities
an supplementation totals provided by each locality. This is not
a complete list for the Commonwealth, as I was unable to obtain
do umentation for all localities. However, I do believe that it
gi es us a clear picture for many localities, larger, smaller and
of similar populations.

I do not have any illusions to being able to hold on to
staff forever if we do not do something about their salaries.
ug Wilder and the Compensation Board have not done anything for
veral years now, which is reflected in the salary levels as you
e them. Other localities have face up to the issue as reflected
the documentation enclosed. Supplementation of salaries is an
sue that apparently has long been avoided by our Board of
pervisors, and I don't think you cannot afford to ignore it any
nger.
There is a certain amount of prestige in being a
osecutor, and, surprising as it may seem to you, sometimes it can
a fun job. Those are intangibles, but they certainly do not
lp you buy groceries. Given the very high standards that we have
Albemarle County with the well-educated population professional
tizenry, to insure to that population a well-run, efficient and
ofessional staff for now and in the future, should be a paramount
ty of the Board.
I do not expect this office to be supplemented to the
tent that some of the larger jurisdictions do, but we should be
mparable to Suffolk and Roanoke (both City and County).
bemarle County should be competitive with the rest of the State
insure that we have a qualified and motivated legal staff. The
c tizens of the County deserve no less.
I very much appreciate your support, and I wait to hear
om you as to what changes I should make to this request prior to
bmitting it to the County; who I should talk to; and whether or
t you want me to supply any additional information that would aid
the process.
Very
yours,

DAVID P. BOWERMAN, CHAIRMAN
ALBEMARLE COUNTY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS
COMMONWEALTH TRANSPORTATION BOARD
PRE-ALLOCATION HEARING ON
INTERSTATE AND PRIMARY SYSTEMS
CULPEPER DISTRICT
MARCH 26, 1993
GOOD MORNING, I'M DAVID BOWERMAN, CHAIRMAN OF THE BOARD OF
PERVISORS OF ALBEMARLE COUNTY. WE APPRECIATE THE OPPORTUNITY TO
E A FEW BRIEF COMMENTS ABOUT OUR PRIMARY ROAD NEEDS.
BEFORE DISCUSSING SPECIFIC ROAD NEEDS, WE WANT TO RECOGNIZE
E OPPORTUNITIES AND CHALLENGES POSED BY THE NEW ISTEA
GISLATION. HOW ISTEA WILL AFFECT THE STATE AND LOCALITY AND HOW
I WILL BE IMPLEMENTED IS A CRITICAL ISSUE FOR ALL OF US. OUR
CENT EFFORTS TO ACHIEVE THIS UNDERSTANDING HAS BEEN FRAUGHT WITH
A LACK OF DEFINITIVE INFORMATION.
AT THE LOCAL LEVEL, WE ARE
L TERALLY "SHOOTING AT A MOVING TARGET." WHAT WE HEAR TODAY MAY
GE TOMORROW, AND OFTEN DOES.
THE NET RESULT IS THAT MANY
AND PROCEDURE QUESTIONS GO UNANSWERED.
THIS MAKES IT
TREMELY DIFFICULT FOR US TO OBTAIN CREDITABLE INFORMATION ON
ICH TO BASE OUR PLANNING AND RECOMMENDATIONS. WHILE THE EVOLVING
POLICY AND PROCEDURES AS EXTENSIVE AS THAT REQUIRED BY
LEGISLATION IS EXPECTED, WE ONLY ASK THAT YOU CONSIDER
ME MEANS OF PROVIDING PERIODIC UPDATES AND INFORMATION FORUMS TO
EP US ABREAST OF THESE CHANGES.
TH THIS BACKGROUND, LET ME ADDRESS OUR ROAD NEEDS. YOU ASKED FOR
MMENTS DIRECTED TO THE NEW ISTEA CATEGORIES. MY COMMENTS FOCUS
THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY SYSTEM AND SURFACE TRANSPORTATION PROGRAM
D ARE CONSISTENT WITH THE PRIORITIES SUBMITTED TO YOU LAST YEAR.
EY ARE STILL FOUNDED ON TWO CRITICAL DECISIONS WHICH WE HAVE ALL
AFFIRMED: FIRST, THE PROJECTS IDENTIFIED IN THE CHARLOTTESVILLE
EA TRANSPORTATION STUDY (CATS) AND SECOND, THE MUTUAL AGREEMENT
TWEEN THE CITY OF CHARLOTTESVILLE, UNIVERSITY OF VIRGINIA, COUNTY
ALBEMARLE AND COMMONWEALTH TRANSPORTATION BOARD REGARDING THE
OF THESE AND OTHER ROAD PROJECTS. REGARDLESS OF THE
GES WROUGHT BY ISTEA, THE ADHERENCE TO THESE TWO DECISIONS IS
CRITICAL TO ADDRESSING THE TRANSPORTATION NEEDS OF OUR
OF CHARLOTTESVILLE IS TO BE PART OF THE NATIONAL
SYSTEM (NHS). THE MPO AND BOARD OF SUPERVISORS DOES NOT
INCLUDING THE PROPOSED ROUTE 29 BYPASS AT THIS TIME AS WAS
COMMENDED BY THE DEPARTMENT. THIS DECISION WAS BASED ON THE
OF INFORMATION ON HOW SUCH A DESIGNATION WOULD IMPACT THIS
AND THE IMPLICATIONS OF THIS FOR OUR COMMUNITY. REGARDLESS,
SECTION OF ROUTE 29 NORTH OF THE 250 BYPASS, IS
OPOSED TO BE PART OF THE NHS. THUS, THE PLANNED WIDENING OF THIS
FROM THE CHARLOTTESVILLE CITY LIMITS TO THE RIVANNA RIVER, AS
AS THE GRADE SEPARATED INTERCHANGES AT RIO ROAD, HYDRAULIC
AD, AND GREENBRIER DRIVE, FULLY SUPPORT THE INTENT OF THE NHS.
EY ARE ELIGIBLE FOR NHS FUNDING AND CONTINUE TO BE OUR HIGHEST
IORITY WITHIN THE NHS CATEGORY. THE WIDENING OF ROUTE 29 NORTH
MOVING FORWARD AND WE ARE AWARE THE DEPARTMENT WILL BEGIN
TAILED PLANNING FOR THE INTERCHANGES BUT WE HAVE SERIOUS CONCERNS
THE CONSTRUCTION FUNDING FOR THESE GRADE SEPARATED INTERCHANGES.
SERVICE LEVELS ON ROUTE 29 NORTH WILL NOT IMPROVE WITHOUT THEM
REQUEST THAT THESE BE INCLUDED IN THE STATE'S NHS PROGRAM
FACE TRANSPORTATION PROGRAM
ERE ARE SEVERAL OTHER IMPROVEMENTS THAT WE OFFER FOR YOUR
THESE ARE MORE DEFINITELY ADDRESSED IN A REPORT WE
THEY INCLUDE THE FOLLOWING SURFACE
SPORTATION PROGRAM (STP) PROJECTS:
S FETY PROJECTS INCLUDE:
. CLOSING OF CROSSOVERS ALONG U.S. 29 NORTH AS RECOMMENDED
IN A VDOT STUDY ADOPTED BY BOTH THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS
AND REAFFIRMED BY YOU ON NOVEMBER 9, 1989;
· IMPROVEMENTS TO THE ROUTE 240 UNDERPASS AT THE CSX
RAILROAD IN CROZET;
· DEVELOPING FUNCTIONAL PLANS FOR ROUTE 20 NORTH AND SOUTH
FOR ALIGNMENT IMPROVEMENTS;
. CONDUCTING A ROADWAY ANALYSIS FOR SAFETY IMPROVEMENTS TO
U.S. 250 EAST FROM ITS INTERCHANGE AT I-64 EASTWARD TO
THE FLUVANNA COUNTY LINE;
E HANCEMENT PROJECTS INCLUDE:
. BEAUTIFICATION OF ENTRANCE CORRIDORS, PARTICULARLY ROUTE
29 NORTH AND ROUTE 250 EAST;
. CONSTRUCTION OF BIKEWAY FACILITIES;
· DEVELOPMENT OF A THOMAS JEFFERSON PARKWAY ALONG ROUTE 53
FROM ROUTE 20 TO MONTICELLO;
S ANDARD PROJECTS INCLUDE:
· UNDERTAKING CATS PROJECTS AS OUTLINED IN OUR MUTUAL
AGREEMENT AS WELL AS THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE MEADOW CREEK
PARKWAY;
· WIDENING OF U. S. ROUTE 250 WEST FROM EMMET STREET TO
ROUTE 637 IN IVY;
· IMPROVING THE NORTH/SOUTH CONNECTION BETWEEN ROUTE 250
AND ROUTE 240;
· DEVELOPING DESIGN PLANS FOR THE WIDENING OF FONTAINE
AVENUE FROM JEFFERSON PARK AVENUE TO THE SECTION
CURRENTLY BEING WIDENED BY PRIVATE DEVELOPMENT.
MPLETION OF THESE PROJECTS IN A TIMELY MANNER IS LARGELY A
CTION OF AVAILABLE FUNDING. WHILE ISTEA MAY INCREASE OUR ACTUAL
THE INFUSION OF ADDITIONAL FEDERAL DOLLARS, THE ROAD
OF OUR COMMUNITY DICTATE THAT WE CONTINUE TO RECEIVE A FAIR
E OF THE DISTRICT'S AVAILABLE FUNDS.
THANK YOU FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO PRESENT THESE ISSUES AND IF
ESTIONS ARISE, OF IF ADDITIONAL INFORMATION IS NEEDED REGARDING
RECOMMENDATIONS, PLEASE DO NOT HESITATE TO CONTACT ME OR A
STAFF.

Th following addresses Albemarle County priorities for each allocation of the
In ermodal Transportation Efficiency Act (ISTEA) and each sub-allocation of
th Surface Transportation Program (STP) funds.
Co~gestion KitiRation and Air Quality Improvement ProRram
Th s does not apply to Albemarle County. The County is not in an area of
no attainment for ozone or carbon monoxide.
Na ional Hi2hwav System (NHS)
ThE Charlottesville-Albemarle MPO Technical Committee and Policy Board have
ap roved the NHS as proposed by VDOT in this area excluding the Route 29
BYlass. No other NHS designations are recommended. The County's highest
pr ority project in the proposed NHS is the widening of Route 29 North from
thE Corporate limits of Charlottesville to Airport Road, including immediate
de ign/acquisition and ultimate construction of interchanges at Greenbrier
Dr ve and Hydraulic and Rio Roads. The County seeks active participation in
ROlte 29 Corridor studies, including the upcoming study of the Charlottesville
to Warrenton segment of the Corridor.
SUl face Transportation Program (STP)
Sa ety Improvements:
Se,eral projects in the County seem to qualify under this 10% set-aside. They
are, in priority order:
1) The closing of the remalnlng Route 29 North crossovers recommended
for closure in a VDOT study adopted by the Board of Supervisors on
May 10, 1979 and reaffirmed by the Board on November 8, 1989.
2) Improvements to the Route 240 underpass at the CSX Railroad in
Crozet.
3) Functional plans for Route 20 North and South for alignment
improvements.
4) Analysis of possible safety improvements to Route 250 East from
its interchange at 1-64 eastward to the Fluvanna County line.
Enh~ncement Proiects:
Sev~ral projects appear to be eligible for enhancement funds. They are, in
priprity order:
1) Beautification of entrance corridors (particularly Route 29 and
Route 250) - landscaping, signage, undergrounding of overhead
utilities.
2) Construction of bikeway facilities as prioritized in the Bicycle
Plan for the City of Charlottesville and Albemarle County (adopted
by the Board of Supervisors as a element of the Comprehensive Plan
on July 17, 1991).
3) Development of a Thomas Jefferson Parkway along Route 53 from
Route 20 to Monticello as recommended in the Blue Ridge
Neighborhood Study (amended into the Comprehensive Plan by the
Board of Supervisors on September 18, 1991). The Thomas Jefferson
Memorial Foundation has requested the County's assistance in
pursuing this concept (see attached letter).
4) Development of portions of the Rivanna River Greenway path system.
5) Development of sidewalks/pathways as recommended in Pedestrian
Obstacles Study Phase II (1987).
6) Removal of non-conforming billboards.
St Pro'ects:
Be and aforementioned projects, there are other projects eligible for STP
fu ds not set aside. They are, in priority order:
1) Undertake those Charlottesville Area Transportation Study (CATS)
projects eligible for the primary program in sequence as called
for in the February 2, 1992 joint resolution between the City,
County and University and agreed to by VDOT. In addition to Route
29 improvements already mentioned, construct Meadow Creek Parkway
from the Route 250 Bypass to Route 29 North. The first phase of
this project will be funded in the County's secondary program.
The County believes the parkway will meet the criteria for
inclusion in the primary system and wants to work with VDOT staff
to evaluate construction of subsequent phases as a primary road if
this will accelerate the parkway's completion. VDOT is urged to
investigate all possible funding sources to achieve the quickest
construction of this vitally important roadway. Projects in the
northern urbanized area not eligible for primary funds, but listed
in CATS, such as the Hydraulic Road/Route 250 Bypass interchange,
should be actively pursued.
2) Undertake road projects parallel to Route 29 which relieve traffic
on Route 29, such as the Berkmar Drive completion and the
Greenbrier Drive/Seminole Trail connector, concurrent with the
Route 29 improvements.
3) Improve the north/south connection between Route 250 and Route 240
in Crozet, either through an improved alignment of Route 240 from
Route 250 northward to Route 810, or construction of the Route
240-Route 250 connector road recommended in the County's
Comprehensive Plan.
4) Widen Route 250 West from Emmett Street to Route 637 in Ivy. That
portion from Emmett Street to the Route 29/250 Bypass is under
joint design study by the City, County and University of Virginia
and was recognized for improvement in the Lewis Mountain
Neighborhood Study.
5) Develop design plans for the widening of Fontaine Avenue from
Jefferson Park Avenue to the improvements being undertaken along
the frontage of the University Real Estate Foundation development.
6) Construct an interchange on 1-64 at Avon Street (Route 742).

Dear Mr. Cilimberg,
The Thomas Jefferson Memorial Foundation, Inc.
1S currently interviewing landscape architectural
firms to develop a rendered conceptual plan and
narrative for a section of the Thomas Jefferson
Parkway, the 1.6 mile section of Route 53 from
Route 20 to thE: 1,1ont icello entrance. The purpose
of this plan is to suggest the possibilities of a
Parkway and to serve as a basis to raise funding,
whether private or governmental, for its
implementation. The County's Comprehensive Plan, as
amended by the "Blue Ridge Neighborhood Study"
(June I 1991, prepared by your department), out lines
the justification Clnd implementation for a "Parkway
to Monticello" which would "allow for safe and
efficient traffic movement and preserve the rural
character of the area."
The Foundation hopes, as well, to create a
scenic, landscaped road to lend credence to the
name change; to develop a parkway spann1ng a
picturesque, rural setting on the way to one of
this country's most signif icant histor ica I
properties. We feel a parkway is more than a road,
but a linear park with a roadway within it. The
George Washington Parkway, the Blue Ridge Parkway,
and the Colonial Parkway are the models we have in
mind. The recent acquisition of 105 acres adjacent
to Route 53 has inspired the Foundation to take the
initial steps to make the concept of the parkl.-Jay a
tangible reality Clnd to want to work with the
County toward that goal.

A high priority is to obtain ISTEA (Intermodal Surface
Transportation Efficiency Act) enhancement funding for the
project. As we understand the act, an especially relevant
section provides grants for transportation enhancement
projects such as "facilities for bicycles and pedestrians,"
"acquisition of scenic easements and scenic sites," "historic
preservation," and" landscaping and other scenic
beautification" -- all of which will be ingredients of our
conceptual plan. We also understand that, in Virginia, the
Federal enhancement monies are distributed equally to the
twenty-two transportation planning districts.
We need your guidance about the project as well as your
help to guide us through the corridors of relevant
governmental agencies to get the ISTEA monies. We also need
your support in championing and coordinating this project.
The current problems with the road are numerous and obvious.
Route 53 is an ordinary highway department road; its gravel
shoulders, adjacent grading cuts, concrete drainage ditches,
metal guard rails, signs, and general aesthetic ambience
suggest a highway in the middle of a commercial strip rather
than a parkway leading to the only house in the United States
registered as a World Heritage site. Route 53 is also a
hazardous road, particularly in the narrow, winding stretch
between Michie Tavern and Monticello.
The purpose of this letter is simply to communicate our
basic goals regarding the Parkway and to request your
assistance. The rendered conceptual plan and narrative 1S
scheduled to be completed by June 1, 1993, but I'd welcome a
chance to meet with you well before then to discuss ISTEA
strategy and to get your ideas about the project. I'll be in
touch shortly.
Sincerely,

properties. We feel a parkway is more than a road,
but a linear park with a roadway within it. The
George Washington Parkway, the Blue Ridge Parkway,
and the Colonial Parkway are the models we have in
mind. The recent acquisition of 105 acres adjacent
to Route 53 has inspired the Foundation to take the
initial steps to make the concept of the parkway a
tangible reality and to want to work with the
County toward that goal.

.
A high priority is to obtain ISTEA (Intermodal Surface
Transportation Efficiency Act) enhancement funding for the
project. As we understand the act, an especially relevant
section provides grants for transportation enhancement
projects such as "facilities for bicycles and pedestrians,"
"acquisition of scenic easements and scenic sites," "historic
preservation," and" landscaping and other scenic
beautification" -- all of which will be ingredients of our
conceptual plan. We also understand that, in Virginia, the
Federal enhancement monies are distributed equally to the
twenty-two transportation planning districts.
We need your guidance about the project as well as your
help to guide us through the corridors of relevant
governmental agencies to get the ISTEA monies. We also need
your support in championing and coordinating this project.
The current problems with the road are numerous and obvious.
Route 53 is an ordinary highway department road; its gravel
shoulders, adjacent grading cuts, concrete drainage ditches,
metal guard rails, signs, and general aesthetic ambience
suggest a highway in the middle of a commercial strip rather
than a parkway leading to the only house in the United States
registered as a World Heritage Site. Route 53 is also a
hazardous road, particularly in the narrow, winding stretch
between Michie Tavern and Monticello.
The purpose of this letter is simply to communicate our
basic goals regarding the Parkway and to request your
assistance. The rendered conceptual plan and narrative ~s
scheduled to be completed by June 1, 1993, but I'd welcome a
chance to meet with you well before then to discuss ISTEA
strategy and to get your ideas about the project. I'll be in
touch shortly.

ounty Boards of Supervisors
Board Member:
As I am sure you are aware, the annual process of updating
he Six-Year Improvement Program is under way~ Preallocation
earings are being held throughout the State in March and early
pril. The Commonwealth Transportation Board will make its
ecision on the tentative allocations on May 20. Two final
earings will be held on June 10, with final approval scheduled
or June 24.
The 1993 General Assembly adopted changes to ensure that
irginia complies with the federal Intermodal Surface
ransportation Efficiency Act of 1991 (ISTEA). The following
rovisions were enacted for fiscal year 1993-94:
1. Funds apportioned under federal law to the National
Highway System (NHS) shall be treated, for State
formulae purposes, as interstate funds, pursuant to
533.1-23.1 of the Code of Virginia; and,
2. Funds apportioned under federal law for Congestion
Mitigation and Air Quality (CMAQ) improvement shall
be allo~ated to designated transportation projects
in clean air non-attainment areas of the
Commonwealth in addition to funds allocated to these
areas pursuant to 533.1-23.1; and,
3. Funds apportioned under federal law for the Surface
Transportation Program (STP) shall be distributed
and administered in accordance with federal
requirements, as follows:
a. Ten percent shall be set aside for a
statewide safety program, with grants made
on a competitive basis;
b. Ten percent shall be set aside for a
statewide enhancement program, with grants
made on a competitive basis;
c. Fifty percent shall be allocated on the
basis of population, as prescribed by
federal law;
d. Thirty percent shall be allocated pursuant
to S33.1-23.1 of the Code of Virginia.
4. Federal requirements shall be followed regarding
that portion of the Equity funds apportioned to the
Commonwealth that are to be allocated on the basis
of population. Such equity funds include the
minimum allocation, hold harmless, reimbursement,
payments guarantee and donor state bonus categories
under federal law.
5. The balance of Equity funds apportioned to the
Commonwealth shall be allocated to eligible projects
at the discretion of the Commonwealth Transportation
Board.
6. Secondary road and urban construction funds
allocated pursuant to S33.1-23.1 .B(2) and B(3) may
be utilized on any project eligible under Title 23
united States Code Section 133, upon request of the
local governing body and approval of the
Commonwealth Transportation Board.
7. Federal funds provided to the National Highway
System, Surface Transportation Program and
Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality categories as
well as the required Stat~ matching funds may be
allocated by the Commonwealth Transportation Board
for transit purposes under the same rules and
conditions authorized by federal law.
Attached is a table which shows the tentative Six-Year
d stribution of state and federal revenues, taking into account
tle aforementioned language. Funds for the interstate and
n(~ninterstate NHS are set aside before any further distribution
((~ff the top). CMAQ funds are set aside for the three urban
n(~n-attainment areas in regional accounts. The funds for the
sl~ecial federal demonstration projects are set aside as required
b' federal law.
Under the Surface Transportation Program, funding is
p ovided for the enhancement and safety programs. Also shown are
tle funds to be allocated to the three urbanized areas over
2( 0,000 population and the statewide allocation for discretionary
p ojects selected by the Board.
Primary allocations represent a 40% share of the funds
a ailable for formula distribution.
Urban allocations represent (1) a 30% share of the funds
a ailable for formula distribution to all urban areas, and (2)
t e population distribution of STP funds to urban areas excluding
t ose within the three urpanized areas over 200,000 population.
Second~ allocations represent (1) a 30% share of the funds
a ailable for formula distribution to all counties, and (2) the
p pulation distribution of STP funds to counties excluding those
w'thin the three urbanized areas over 200,000 population.
STP funds allocated to any system.of highways are not
l'mited to systems, but may be allocated to any improvements on
a_y system for any purpose specified in the federal STP program.
i prior concurrence of the Commonwealth Transportation Board is
o tained.
Assistance for mass transit from the Highway Maintenance and
o erating Fund and the Transportation Trust Fund is set out
a cording to current law.
Unpaved road funds continue to be distributed to counties
sed upon the procedures contained in current law.
If you compare the qollars available to last year's
e timates, you will observe that the amounts available for
f rmula distribution are reduced. This is a result of several
f deral requirements: (1) the legislated set asides for safety
a d enhancements, (2) the direct STPallocation to urbanized
a eas over 200,000 population in regional accounts and the other
a eas of the state, (3) the statewide. discretionary allocations,
a d (4) provision of state match in certain categories.
Of particular interest is the process involving the STP
f nds being distributed to the counties, cities, and towns, and
w'thin the three urbanized areas over 200,000 population, to the
M tropolitan Planning Organizations. Project selection is
d legated to the appropriate local government and/or regional .
e tity, with appropriate consultation or cooperation from the
S ate. For use in project selection, I am attaching an extract
f om ISTEA which describes the types of projects eligible for STP
f nding.
As you can see, implementing the provisions of ISTEA will
p esent many challenges to you as well as the Commonwealth
T ansportation Board. We welcome this opportunity to work with
e ch of you toward our mutual goal of improving transportation in
t e Commonwealth.
Sincerely,

ROUND: The Commonwealth Transportation Board (CTB) is conducting their annual pre-
ation hearings on Interstate, Primary and Urban Systems, and for Mass Transit
cts. The culpeper District hearing is at 10:00 a.m. on March 26, 1993 in the
per District Office. The purpose of the hearing is to solicit input on the
ation of fiscal year 1993-1994 funds and on updating the Six-Year Improvement
am. Past submittals have focused on the primary road system. As a result of the
ntermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act (ISTEA), the CTB is requesting
and recommendations in two areas that affect Albemarle County; the National
ay System (NHS) and the Surface Transportation Program (STP) which includes safety
cts, enhancement projects, and other primary projects.
The attached staff report provides recommendation and comments regarding
HS and STP. These are consistent with our longstanding priorities and previous
reco endations to the CTB. In addition to our primary road projects there is a new
sect'on on enhancement projects that is now specifically required under ISTEA. The
Metr politan Planning Organization will also be making recommendations to the CTB.
Afte your review of staff's recommendations, a second draft will be prepared for your
revi w at your March 17th meeting which will include a draft statement for presentation
at t e hearing.
RECO ATION: Staff recommends and requests your approval of the proposed primary
road recommendations.

his has been previously discussed by the Board of Supervisors. Both the MPO
echnical Committee and Policy Board have approved the NHS as proposed by VDOT
'n this area excluding the Route 29 Bypass (see attached map). The Policy
oard has reserved the opportunity to come back to this issue after more
omp1ete information about the implications of NHS is available. Staff
ecommends no other NHS designations. The County's highest priority project
'n the proposed NHS is the widening of Route 29 North from the Corporate
imits of Charlottesville to the South Fork Rivanna River, including
cquisition and ultimate construction of interchanges at Greenbrier Drive and
draulic and Rio Roads. The County should also seek active participation in
oute 29 Corridor studies, including the upcoming study of the Charlottesville
o 1-66 segment of the Corridor.

y group/individual may initiate enhancement projects, but they must be
e dorsed and submitted by a local jurisdiction or public agency with
propriate MPO endorsement. An application must be completed for funding
consideration. A minimum 20% local match of total project cost is required,
ich may come from public or private sources. If the project is within VDOT
ight-of-way, this match may come from VDOT road funds. Funding is
competitive - applications statewide will be evaluated and selected from one
001. Final application forms are not yet available. Deadline for
plication is July 1, 1993.
Several projects previously identified or requested appear to be eligible for
e ancement funds. They are, in staff's priority order:
1) Beautification of entrance corridors (particularly Route 29 and
Route 250) - landscaping, signage, undergrounding of overhead
utilities.
2) Construction of bikeway facilities as prioritized in the Bicycle
Plan for the City of Charlottesville and Albemarle County (adopted
by the Board of Supervisors as a element of the Comprehensive Plan
on July 17, 1991).
3) Development of a Thomas Jefferson Parkway along Route 53 from
Route 20 to Monticello as recommended in the Blue Ridge
Neighborhood Study (amended into the Comprehensive Plan by the
Board of Supervisors on September 18, 1991). The Thomas Jefferson
Memorial Foundation has requested the County's assistance in
pursuing this concept (see attached letter).
4) Development of portions of the Rivanna River Greenway path system.
5) Development of sidewalks/pathways as recommended in Pedestrian
Obstacles Study Phase II (1987).
6) Removal of non-conforming billboards.
e County's priorities for enhancement funds will be presented to the MPO for
i corporation into this year's Transportation Improvement Program (TIP).
Mr. Bob Brandenburger
Eage 4
March 2, 1993
Standard Proiects:
Beyond these projects mentioned, there are other projects eligible for STP
f~nds not set aside that have traditionally been requested by the County as
part of the primary plan allocation process. They are, in staff's priority
order:
1) Undertake those Charlottesville Area Transportation Study (CATS)
projects eligible for the primary program in sequence as called
for in the February 2, 1992 joint resolution between the City,
County and University and agreed to by VDOT. In addition to Route
29 improvements already mentioned, construct Meadow Creek Parkway
from the Route 250 Bypass to Route 29 North. The first phase of
this project will be funded in the County's secondary program.
The County believes the parkway will meet the criteria for
inclusion in the primary system and wants to work with VDOT staff
to evaluate construction of subsequent phases as a primary road if
this will accelerate the parkway's completion.
2) Improve the north/south connection between Route 250 and Route 240
in Crozet, either through an improved alignment of Route 240 from
Route 250 northward to Route 810, or construction of the Route
240-Route 250 connector road recommended in the County's
Comprehensive Plan.
3) Widen Route 250 West from Emmett Street to Route 637 in Ivy. That
portion from Emmett Street to the Route 29/250 Bypass is under
joint design study by the City, County and University of Virginia
and was recognized for improvement in the Lewis Mountain
Neighborhood Study.
4) Develop design plans for the widening of Fontaine Avenue from
Jefferson Park Avenue to the improvements being undertaken along
the frontage of the University Real Estate Foundation development.
5) Construct an interchange on 1-64 at Avon Street (Route 742).

and for Mass Transit
C unty Boards of Supervisors
D ar Board Member:
Your active participation in the preallocation hearing
process in previous years has been invaluable to the Commonwealth
Transportation Board in the selection and setting of construction
priorities. Under the new federal legislation, your participation
ecomes even more important because of the fundamental changes
t at have occurred in the federal/state relationship.
The Board has again scheduled a series of preallocation
earings, as indicated on the attached list. We look forward to
our advice and comments on both the allocation of fiscal year
1993-94 funds and on updating the Six-Year Improvement Program to
eflect anticipated future funding through fiscal years 1998-99.
The Federal Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act
(ISTEA), enacted by Congress in 1991, has required a number of
hanges with the laws of the Commonwealth governing the allocation
f transportation funds. Last year, the General Assembly provided
'nterim legislative guidance on the use of federal funds, and in
993 the modified language, currently under consideration by the
eneral Assembly, will bring even more changes.
The major federal funding categories we would like you to
ddress are outlined on attachment #2.
As in the past years, we will focus on the federal categories
nd the. Interstate, Primary, Urban, and Mass Transit Systems.
earings for secondary projects occur at other times.
You are cordially invited
s your schedule will permit.

COMPLiANCE WITH ISTEA.
., .. .........
PROPOSED STATE B UDGET AMENDMENT
On December 18, 1991, President Bush signed the Intermodal
T ansportation Efficiency Act (ISTEA), which changed the course
transportation funding for the nation. Virginia's existing
location statute could accommodate prior law, but there were
eas of conflict between ISTEA and existing statute. VDOT was
the same time performing an analysis of the allocation
rmula, SJR 188, and it was the consensus of the General
sembly and VDOT that major changes should be avoided until the
188 study results could be properly considered by the
sembly. As a result, the 1992 General Assembly enacted two
t mporary budget amendments, allowing VDOT to treat the National
H'ghway System (NHS) like interstate funds and setting aside the
C ngestion Mitigation and Air Quality (CMAQ) funds for
d'stribution only to nonattainment areas.
This year the General Assembly has received the initial
port for the SJR 188 study. These recommendations call for a
udy by the Assembly prior to implementation. In the interim,
vernor Wilder gave permission for VDOT to request a budget
endment, which would temporarily enact the SJR 188 findings
ecifically relating to full compliance with ISTEA. This
commendation continues the previously approved distributions
r the NHS and CMAQ and also provides for the federally mandated
s ballocations of the Surface Transportation Program (STP) funds.
+ Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality Improvement Program
(CMAQ) - Provides funding for transportation projects to
reduce air pollution in areas that are in nonattainment
for ozone or carbon monoxide. These federal monies are
set aside prior to statutory distribution, and are
attributed directly to the three nonattainment areas. The
Metropolitan Planning Organization selects the projects to
be funded. Projects may involve highways or other
transportation modes. Required matching funds are
p~ovided from the regular allocation to the system or mode
receiving the federal funds.
. National Highway System (NHS) - Congress is establishing a
155,000 mile NHS to succeed the Interstate System. The
new system will contain all interstate routes, some other
principal arterials, and intermodal connectors. VDOT has
completed the required functional classification, and has
forwarded the draft results to local governments and
regional transportation agencies. Following this review,
a recommended system for Virginia will be submitted to the
Federal Highway Administration this summer. The Congress
will adopt a final system by September 30, 1995. In
Virginia the NHS funds are treated like interstate funds.
They are set aside prior to the statutory distribution,
and required state matching funds are taken off-the-top.
· Surface Transportation Program (STP) - The most flexible
of the new federal programs is the STP. These monies may
be used for improvements on any transportation mode, and
can be reassigned from highways to the other modes without
going through a lengthy federal approval process. There
are required federal set asides, and suballocations.
Ten percent of the STP apportionment must be used for
safety improvements. These involve improving conditions
at hazardous locations and constructing grade separations
at some rail-highway crossings and installing gates and
flashing lights at the other crossings. This portion of
the STP program replaces the federal safety program.
Federal funds will no longer pass through the statutory
formula, enabling the State to implement identified
projects more rapidly.
A second ten percent of the STP apportionment is set aside
for enhancement projects. A list of the ten specific
project types is established. These projects enhance the
physical environment, and allow the State to do more than
would normally be done on a proposed project. An
enhancement may also be accomplished as a stand-alone
venture, although it must relate to a transportation mode
and meet the eligibility criteria. The Commonwealth
Transportation Board is developing a brochure to more
fully describe the program and solicit project
recommendations. This will be available following budget
approval by the General Assembly and the public
involvement process for the program design. Federal funds
will be set aside prior to the statutory distribution.
Federal law requires that 50% of the STP funds be
suballocated according to population. Within areas over
200,000 population, the available funds are attributed to
the MPO for project selection, in cooperation with VDOT.
Federal law also mandates the aggregate amount that must
be obligated in rural areas. The budget amendment being
considered by the General Assembly will assign the
federally mandated amount for each area. Within areas of
over 200,000 population, the aggregate amounts are
attributed to the MPOs; in other areas, allocations are
made directly to the counties, cities, and towns.
The remaining thirty percent of the STP apportionment is
titled IIstate flexiblell. The Board's recommendation,
which is under consideration by the General Assembly,
would continue to pass these funds through the statutory
distribution.
. Equity Adjustment Categories - Federal allocation law does
not return to each state the exact proportion of monies
that it pays in user fees and taxes. Some states, like
Virginia, pay in more taxes than are returned. In
recognition of this fact, and in order to minimize the
impact, Congress implemented a series of equity
adjustments designed to return to each state at least 90%
of their payments. Each of the five equity adjustments
has slightly different distribution criteria, but all
complement portions of the STP. within the recommended
budget amendment, half of the apportionments available to
Virginia are distributed in accordance with the federal
STP formula. The other half is distributed to the NHS or
other highway and/or transit projects at the discretion of
the Board.
. Budget status - The General Assembly is expected to adopt
a final budget prior to its adjournment on February 27.
until final action by the Assembly, VDOT's recommendations
remain tentative, under consideration but not accepted.
Once the budget is enacted, VDOT will know which
recommendations are approved, and which have been further
adjusted or denied.

Dear Mr. Cilimberg,
The Thomas Jefferson Memorial Foundation, Inc.
is currently interviewing landscape architectural
firms to develop a rendered conceptual plan and
narrative for a section of the Thomas Jefferson
Parkway, the 1.6 mile section of Route 53 from
Route 20 to thE: r'1onticello entrance. The purpose
of this plan is to suggest the possibilities of a
Parkway and to serve as a basis to raise funding,
whether private or governmental, for its
implementation. The County's Comprehensive Plan, as
amended by the "Blue Ridge Neighborhood study"
(June, 1991, prepared by your department), outlines
the justification and implementation for a "Parkway
to Monticello" which would "allow for safe and
efficient traffic movement and preserve the rural
character of the area."
The Foundation hopes, as well, to create a
scenic, landscaped road to lend credence to the
name change; to develop a parkway spannlng a
picturesque, rural setting on the way to one of
this country's most signif icant historical
properties. We feel a parkway is more than a road,
but a linear park with a roadway within it. The
George Washington Parkway, the Blue Ridge Parkway,
and the Colonial Parkway are the models we have in
mind. The recent acquisition of 105 acres adjacent
to Route 53 has inspired the Foundation to take the
initial steps to make the concept of the parkway a
tangible reality and to want to work with the
County toward that goal.
TIIOMAS JEFFERSON MEMORIAL FOUNDATION, MONTICELLO, P,O, BOX 316, CHARLOTTESVILLE, VA 22902
A high priority is to obtain ISTEA (Intermodal Surface
Transportation Efficiency Act) enhancement funding for the
project. As we understand the act, an especially relevant
section provides grants for transportation enhancement
proj ects such as "facilities for bicycles and pedestrians, "
"acquisi tion of scenic easements and scenic sites," "historic
preservation," and" landscaping and other scenic
beautification" -- all of which will be ingredients of our
conceptual plan. We also understand that, in Virginia, the
Federal enhancement monies are distributed equally to the
twenty-two transportation planning districts.
We need your guidance about the project as well as your
help to guide us through the corridors of relevant
governmental agencies to get the ISTEA monies. We also need
your support in championing and coordinating this project.
The current problems with the road are numerous and obvious.
Route 53 is an ordinary highway department road; its gravel
shoulders, adjacent grading cuts, concrete drainage ditches,
metal guard rails, signs, and general aesthetic ambience
suggest a highway in the middle of a commercial strip rather
than a parkway leading to the only house in the united States
registered as a World Heritage site. Route 53 is also a
hazardous road, particularly in the narrow, winding stretch
between Michie Tavern and Monticello.
The purpose of this letter is simply to communicate our
basic goals regarding the Parkway and to request your
assistance. The rendered conceptual plan and narrative 1S
scheduled to be completed by June 1, 1993, but I'd welcome a
chance to meet with you well before then to discuss ISTEA
strategy and to get your ideas about the project. I'll be in
touch shortly.
Sincerely,' /
