More
sound
like
that
was
a
little
bit
too
loud.
My
wife
would
not
agree
anyway.
I
want
to
talk
to
you
about
soberis.
It's
probably
not
a
familiar
name
to
you.
Maybe
it
is,
but
I
want
to
make
sure
I
alert
you
to
this
situation.
That's
coming
into
our
community
into
my
neighborhood
I
recognize
Horizon
Central,
Health
Crossroads
for
drug
rehabilitation.
I,
don't
recognize
these
people,
that's
because
they're
the
person
who
owns
the
property
that
they
purchased
four
Parcels
around
40
4059
Lowry
Road.
They
they're
based
out
of
Boca
Raton
Florida,
one.
D
The
purchaser
is
out
of
Boca
Raton
Florida.
They,
the
port.
The
parcels
are
zoned,
both
a-r
and
AV.
The
closest
classification
that
I
can
understand
in
URLs
terminology
is
a
halfway
house
for
this.
Through
this
organization,
soberis
is
actively
advertising
on
the
internet.
The
Bedford
County
facility,
that's
opening
soon
so
they're
they're
already
in
motion
in
advertising,
our
community
for
a
drug
rehabilitation
center
early
indications
or
early
research
shows
that
the
medical
personnel
that
are
behind
this
organization
have
attempted
facilities.
D
Operations
in
Montana
Texas
that
have
failed
blink
Inc,
the
owner
of
the
property,
is
associated
with
at
least
six
failed
Florida
corporations
that
they've
dissolved
on
their
own
way.
It
doesn't
sound
like
very
good
business.
People
to
me,
I
do
happen
to
own
a
business
at
Bedford
this.
This
group
profiles
as
a
scam
operation
by
attracting
and
recruiting
vulnerable
people
from
outside
our
boundaries
and
charging
insurance
and
federal
money,
exorbitant
fees
with
very
low
results.
D
D
D
D
Drug
treatment,
as
I
mentioned
earlier,
is
available
in
our
community
at
reputable
long-standing
members
of
our
community
center
health
Horizon
Crossroads.
We
probably
all
know
that,
and
we
might
have
all
been
touched
a
little
bit
by
someone
in
our
family
that
needed
these
kind
of
help.
This
kind
of
help
the
citizens
of
our
community
are
educating
ourselves
regarding
this
situation
and
I
want
to
alert
this
board
regarding
our
concerns
and
who
is
targeting
our
community
I.
Ask
that
you
investigate,
take
the
appropriate
action
to
protect
and
prepare
our
citizens
for
this
threat.
D
Please
don't
allow
this
group
to
profit
from
our
community
that
we
have
built
while
they
disregard
the
threat
to
our
schools,
neighborhood
children
and
citizens,
and
one
last
thing
I
missed
and
it's
on
the
back
of
your
page.
The
location
is
4059.
Roughly
there's
four
Parcels
there
I
took
Google
Map
it's
0.6
miles
from
little
otter.
C
D
You
and
we're
trying
to
get
ahead
of
this.
You
know,
and-
and
the
thing
is
it's
all
been
under
secret
from
us.
In
fact,
the
reason
why
I
was
alerted
to
it
is
I
have
adjacent
property
in
a
barn
with
electricity.
My
electricity
went
off,
I
got
the
final
bill.
My
wife
calls
hey
why?
Why
is
the
power
out?
Oh?
Well,
you
don't
own
that
property
sorbis.
Does
they
cut
the
power
on
my
barn,
and
so
they
took
water
away
from
the
ability
for
cows
to
drink.
So
are
they
going
to
take?
D
How
much
care
are
they
going
to
take
with
humans?
They
don't
give
a
darn
about
us.
They
don't
give
a
darn
about
our
community,
they
want
to
make
money
and
they
want
to
bring
people
into
this
community
rate.
The
insurance
companies,
rape,
the
federal
government
and
toss
them
out
on
our
streets
for
us
to
deal
with
now
drug
rehabilitation
I'm
all
for
it.
We
all
have
problems,
but
it
doesn't
have
to
be
here.
D
Let
him
start
winning
Boca
Raton
Florida,
there's
a
reason
why
they
don't.
You
know
why
the
person
that
owns
blink
right
across
the
street
is
about
a
10
million
dollar
property.
What
do
you
think
her
neighbor
would
say
if
she
opened
up
a
drug
rehabilitation
center
on
the
next
lot
over
her
her
her
neighbors,
wouldn't
like
it
at
all,
and
she
wouldn't
like
it
either,
but
she'll
come
up
here
and
exploit
thanks
for
the
clarification.
Thank
you.
G
G
Lowry
Road
and
the
T
intersection
with
Forest
Road
is
a
rural
residential
Community.
It's
made
up
of
families,
young
families,
small
children,
there's
livestock.
There
are
horses,
there
are
cattle,
my
grandson's
going
to
go
to
Bedford
otter,
River,
Elementary
School,
and
he
is
right,
it's
less
than
six
tenths
of
a
mile
from
the
elementary
school.
Now
their
proposal
is
to
house
16
men.
G
They
are
not
from
Bedford
County
they're,
not
even
necessarily
from
the
state
of
Virginia.
They
will
pull
people
from
outside
our
region
and
outside
our
state.
There
is
no
upside
to
Bedford
County.
The
real
estate
taxes
property
will
render
to
the
County.
Treasurer
is
insignificant
to
what
services
they
may
require.
Emergency
Medical
Services,
Bedford,
County,
Law
Enforcement.
We
need
more
sheriff's
deputies.
We're
so
understaffed
in
that
regard.
Is
ridiculous
and
yet
we're
going
to
add
to
the
burden
with
something
like
this
for
a
measly
few
dollars
of
real
estate
taxes,
nah.
G
So
imagine
yourself
being
a
grandfather
and
your
grandson
going
off
to
school.
Somebody
who
can't
take
it
anymore
decides
they're
going
to
bring
an
illegal
gun
and
just
run
to
the
nearest
school
bust
in
and
then
hold
somebody
hostage.
This
happened
in
Texas,
it's
happened
in
Connecticut,
it's
happened
everywhere
and
I'm
sure
Sheriff
Miller
doesn't
want
to
have
to
deal
with
that.
G
A
I
Full
name
is
Mary
Kate,
Ramsey,
kleim,
I
live
at
3152,
Hickory,
Cove,
Lane
and
I
know
that
waiver
was
rescinded,
but
I'm
sure
it'll
be
back
on
and
I'll
be
at
every
meeting
about
it.
I
have
some
notes
I'm
here
as
a
concerned,
property
owner
regarding
the
special
waiver
requested
by
Rob
Sorrentino
I
grew
up
in
Bedford
County
I
have
taught
in
Bedford
County
public
schools
for
10
years,
and
my
husband
and
I
made
a
purposeful
choice
to
raise
our
family
in
the
Monita
area.
I
When
we
bought
our
home
three
years
ago,
we
did
our
due
diligence.
We
knew
we
wanted
a
quiet
road
with
a
few
neighbors
little
traffic.
We
purposefully
chose
our
home
knowing
that
across
the
street,
where
these
lots
are
that
he
has
brought
up.
We
might
have
a
few
neighbors,
but
certainly
not
an
entire
subdivision,
which
is
what
he
is
requesting.
I
Sml
Holdings
is
requesting
this
special
waiver
to
reallocate
those
lots
and
to
tend
to
build
a
combination
of
single-family
homes
and
duplexes,
or
his
wording
has
changed
a
lot
on
that
on
a
private
road
when
Mr
Sorrentino
purchased
these
Lots.
He
was
fully
aware
of
the
standing
ordinances
and
Zoning
the
desire
to
break
apart
these
Lots
into
smaller
sections.
Develop
them
and
sell
them
for
financial
gain
is
not
a
hardship
for
him
due
to
the
lack
of
the
hardship.
In
my
opinion,
he
should
not
qualify
for
special
treatment
to
receive
the
waiver.
I
If
you
vote
in
favor,
my
family
would
be
the
ones
experiencing
the
hardship
our
house
is
directly
across
the
street
from
these
lots
that
he
clear-cut-
and
it
is
a
wasteland,
is
what
my
husband
calls
it.
It
is
heartbreaking
to
see
every
day
as
a
resident
of
Bedford
County
for
nearly
three
decades.
I
respectfully
urge
you
to
consider
my
opinion.
Our
family
home
should
not
be
affected
by
a
developers
desire
to
make
money
when
the
ordinances
were
clear
when
he
purchased
the
land.
I
They've
been
unclear
in
their
written
communication
and
communication
with
those
in
the
community
I'm
entirely
against
him
receiving
this
waiver,
but
if
granted,
they
have
provided
no
clear
plan,
including
road
maintenance,
possible,
short-term
rentals
and
how
the
duplexes
would
be
maintained
and
marketed.
The
duplex
Mr
Sorrentino,
currently
owns
on
Hickory
Cove,
has
been
poorly
maintained,
demonstrating
a
lack
of
his
own
personal
investment
in
the
area.
I
My
family
would
be
deeply
affected
by
the
increased
traffic
construction
and
loss
of
The
Quiet
Rural
Life
that
we've
worked
hard
to
create
for
ourselves.
This
would
be
a
true
loss
of
the
ethos
upon
which
the
neighborhood
was
established.
I
often
talk
with
my
students
about
how
lucky
they
are
to
grow
up
in
Bedford
County
and
that
they
will
always
have
this
beautiful
place
to
return
to
no
matter
where
they
go
in
the
world.
I
I
urge
the
board
to
uphold
the
current
zoning
policies
and
consider
the
effects
to
my
family
and
the
current
homeowners
on
Nicholas
Lane,
Hickory,
Cove
and
Village
North
I
spoken
to
my
neighbors
in
these
communities
and
no
one
I've
spoken
to
supports
the
waiver
request
and
we
share
many
of
the
same
concerns.
Thank
you
for
hearing
my
comment
and
I'll
be
here
at
every
meeting.
This
waiver
is
brought
up
about.
A
H
This
is
my
response.
Every
time
I
get
to
speak
in
public,
it's
ridiculous,
but
it's
me
I'm,
going
to
reserve
most
of
my
comments
as
well
only
that
there
might
be
in
the
future
a
way
to
bring
people
that
own
but
rent
their
properties
into
this
meeting,
whether
it's
Zoom
or
whatever.
It
is
so
they
can
speak
because
they
live
in
Arrington.
F
A
All
right
is
there
anyone
else
here
that
did
not
sign
up
that
would
like
to
share
anything
this
evening,
if
not
I'll
close
the
public
comments
time
for
the
benefit
of
those
that
have
come
for
the
Hickory
Co
thing.
I'll
share
this
information
with
you.
The
proposed
lots
are
part
of
the
Clearwater
estate
subdivision
and
are
subject
to
all
covenants
and
restrictions
that
are
in
the
subdivision,
which
calls
for
only
single-family
dwellings
to
be
built.
So
there
would
be
no
duplexes
because
of
those
previously
established
Covenants.
A
All
right
so
we'll
move
on
to.
We
have
nothing
on
the
consent
agenda
tonight
and
we
also
have
no
minutes
ready
for
approval.
We
will
move
on
to
public
hearings
and
presentations.
The
first
thing
we
have
is
a
presentation
from
the
peaks
of
otter,
Soil
and
Water
Conservation,
District
and
I.
Believe
that's
true.
Tracy.
J
Good
evening,
ladies
and
gentlemen,
my
name
is
Tracy
Culbertson
I'm,
the
district
manager
and
conservation
specialist
with
the
pizza
butter,
Soil
and
Water
Conservation
District
I
have
with
me
today:
Terry
Bolinger
she's,
our
Administrative
Assistant
I,
have
our
chairman
of
the
board,
Mr
Glenn,
Witt
and
I.
Have
our
vice
chairman,
Mr,
Richard,
Chaffin
and
I
also
have
with
us
tonight.
J
Scott
Baker,
who
is
a
director
in
Virginia,
Cooperative,
Extension,
agent
and
I,
have
prepared
a
hopefully
short
presentation
for
you
all
this
evening,
just
a
little
bit
about
who
the
district
is
and
what
we
do
here
in
the
county.
So
the
peaks
of
otter,
Soil
and
Water
Conservation
District
serves
Bedford
County
and
the
town
of
Bedford.
We
actually
held
our
first
board
meeting
in
September
of
1968.,
so
we've
been
around
for
quite
some
time.
J
Yeah,
what
did
I
do
there?
We
go
sorry.
The
peaks
of
otter
is
one
of
the
47
conservation
districts
that
serve
the
Commonwealth
of
Virginia.
The
majority
of
funding
is
initially
appropriated
to
districts
and
the
state
budget
by
the
General
Assembly
District.
Specific
allocations
are
determined
by
the
state's
swollen
water
board
and
the
department
of
conservation
and
Recreation
administers
those
funds.
J
Peaks
of
otter
receives
annual
funding
from
Bedford
County
and
may
receive
funding
from
other
sources,
such
as
grants
and
conservation
equipment.
Rental
programs
funding,
including
state
and
local
tax
dollars,
are
returned
to
the
community
Through
agricultural
cost
share
and
Community
educational
programs.
J
Districts
are
defined
as
political
nonpartisan.
Subdivisions
of
state
government
peaksavoter
currently
employs
two
staff
members
and
is
led
by
a
board
of
directors
which
volunteer
their
time
serving
without
pay
to
further
conservation.
Efforts
in
our
County
districts
focus
on
conservation
on
a
regional,
individual,
Watershed
basis
and
conservation
districts
are
tasked
with
local
implementation
of
state
and
federal
cost
share
and
tax
credit
programs.
J
J
The
districts
work
to
design
and
install
best
management
practices
which
helped
to
protect
and
conserve
our
local
Soil
and
Water
Resources.
Among
the
many
benefits
of
these
practices
are
improved
surface
and
groundwater
quality,
improved
wildlife,
habitat,
improved
Farm
productivity
and
reduced
livestock
health
problems.
J
Participation
in
this
call
share
program
is
completely
voluntary
and
incentive
based
soil
erosion
can
lead
to
increased
sedimentation
in
our
waterways,
which
can
have
harmful
impacts
to
aquatic
plants.
Insects,
amphibians
and
fish.
Sediment
can
also
transport
pollutants,
such
as
nutrients,
heavy
metals,
bacteria
and
pathogens.
Downstream.
J
Pollution
of
our
waterways
can
occur
from
agricultural
sources
in
several
ways.
A
common
source
here
in
Bedford
is
livestock,
depositing
waste
directly
in
or
near
waterways.
Nearly
all
of
the
waters
in
Bedford
County
have
an
impairment
from
bacteria
and
or
nutrients
from
Agricultural
and
septic
sources.
J
The
Virginia
agricultural
call
share
program
has
nearly
80
practices
that
addressed
water
and
soil
resource
concerns.
The
most
comprehensive
of
these
is
the
stream
exclusion
with
grazing
Land
Management
practice,
depending
on
the
buffer
width
and
lifespan.
A
producer
can
receive
up
to
100
call
share
and
for
wide
width
buffers
of
35
to
50
feet.
The
producer
is
also
eligible
for
an
incentive
payment.
J
We
also
Aid
in
administering
the
Virginia
conservation
assistance
program
or
vcap,
a
program
which
is
available
to
participants
who
are
not
agricultural
producers.
Vcap
offers
up
to
80
reimbursement
for
best
management
practices
that
address
issues
such
as
erosion,
poor
drainage
or
poor
vegetation
on
residential,
commercial
or
recreational
sites.
J
Peaks
of
otter
also
sets
aside
funding
every
year
in
our
budget
for
the
conservation
enhancement
projects
such
as
the
ones
installed
at
two
area
firehouses.
It
began
as
an
idea
to
capture
rain
water
that
could
serve
the
community
with
the
ultimate
goal
of
conserving
the
use
and
expense
of
treated
water.
J
J
To
conclude,
the
district
also
engages
with
our
community
as
often
as
possible
to
share
our
mission
of
conservation
and
wise
use
of
soil,
water
and
related
resources.
The
district
no
longer
employs
an
education
specialist,
so
staff
and
board
members
have
stepped
up
to
devote
their
time
and
resources
to
this
Outreach.
J
We
would
like
to
mention
that
the
district
participates
in
the
annual
competitive
college
scholarship
program
that
is
administered
by
the
Virginia
Association
of
Soil
and
Water
Conservation
districts.
Our
district
specific
scholarship
is
the
Adams
Boone
scholarship,
but
there
are
also
Statewide
competitive
scholarships
that
may
be
available.
J
We
would
love
to
see
increased
participation
in
this
scholarship
program,
as
we
have
not
had
an
applicant
in
many
years,
so
the
numbers
in
2013
DCR,
elevated
stream
exclusion
to
a
high
priority
practice
and
announced
that
100
cost
share
will
be
available
through
the
vax
program,
though
no
funding
was
currently
available.
If
producers
signed
up
between
July
1st
of
2013
and
June
30th
of
2015.
DCR
would
honor
their
enrollment
as
cost
share.
Funds
became
available.
The
response
from
Bedford
County
producers
was
record-breaking.
J
The
end
result
was
the
completion
of
116
stream
exclusion
practices
protecting
183
miles
of
stream
bank
and
establishing
1112
Acres
of
riparian
buffer
in
total,
producers
were
reimbursed
over
9.2
million
dollars
last
program
year.
The
district
funded
seven
conservation
practices
reimbursing
participants
over
148
thousand
dollars.
B
A
E
J
I,
don't
per
se
have
a
background
in
agriculture.
I
did
graduate
from
the
what
is
now
the
University
of
Lynchburg,
with
an
environmental
science
degree
and
when
I
first
started
with
the
district,
there
was
the
district
manager
there
who
gave
me
very
intense
training.
So
it
was
a
lot
of
on
the
farm.
Experience
and
I've
been
with
the
district
for
over.
E
E
E
Well,
have
you
ever
thought
about
ever
talk
to
a
farmer?
Who's
got
some
years
of
experience
with
the
these
tributaries
being
finished
off.
For
instance,
I
remember
some
time
ago,
Mr
Baker
came
in
requesting
money
to
spray,
weeds
and
Brushy
leaves
along
these
tributors,
because
they're
overgrown
with
products
much
more
harmful
than
what
livestock
would
put
into
those
creeks
and
streams
if
they
stood
in
there
and
dragged
from
them,
and
perhaps
even
peed
in
them.
E
E
The
fence
are
in
their
pastures
when
that
fertilizer
goes
into
the
soil,
where
it's
absorbed
by
the
grass
and
pulls
in
as
nutrients
to
the
to
the
to
the
grass
and
whatever
plants
are
growing
along
there,
but
yet
that
that's
wrong.
But
yet
it's
okay
to
be
spraying
harmful
products
such
as
24d
over
into
the
indiscriminately
into
areas
around
these
riparian
areas,
I
find
that
troubling
and
furthermore,
over
this
past
very
cold
spill.
We
had
when
these
livestock
waterers
that
were
put
in
place
to
keep
the
cattle
out
of
the
riparian
areas.
E
These
livestock
Waters
froze
up
and
then
in
times
of
drought,
they
dry
up,
and
so
there's
no
water
for
the
cattle
in
either
either
way.
So
then,
the
cattle
were
stressed
out-
and
this
whole
thing
is-
is
a
convoluted
mess
and
then
for
the
state
and
the
county
to
spend
and
accumulated
nine
million
dollars
to
protect
these
areas.
When
a
lot
of
folks,
including
yourself,
would
probably
be
tickled
to
death
if
there
wasn't
a
single
cow
on
any
acre
of
Bedford
County
property.
E
As
a
person
as
a
man,
who's
grown
up
with
agriculture,
who
is
born
into
farming,
I,
take
care
I'm
going
to
finish
by
saying
this
I.
Take
your
entire
presentation
personally
offensive
to
myself
and
Farmers,
like
myself
and
I.
Don't
appreciate
your
comments,
but
we'll
be
you've
come
off
with
them.
Sounding
like
we've
got
to
keep
cattle
away
from
these
streams,
because
most
of
the
people
in
your
audience
are
an
earshot
of
what
you're
saying
tonight
have
no
practical
knowledge
of
Agriculture
and
farming
and
that's
fine
they
don't
have
to.
E
F
F
I
just
left
a
meeting
in
Richmond
today
at
the
association
of
districts
level,
and
we've
worked
very
closely
with
the
Department
of
Conservation
and
Recreation,
which
is
the
lead
agency
that
promotes
these
dollars
and
puts
these
dollars
in
place
and
the
general
assembly
members
who
approve
these
dollars.
Many
of
them
come
from
Farm
backgrounds,
as
do
I,
and
these
practices
are
well
vetted
in
technical
advisory
committees.
F
The
the
value
is
not
perfect.
We
understand
that,
but
I
can
tell
you
that
the
improvements
that
have
been
made
in
various
waterways,
not
only
in
Bedford
County,
we
devoted
a
substantial
effort
to
the
little
outer
project
several
years
ago,
reducing
the
total
maximum
daily
loads
on
that
watershed,
and
this
has
been
done
in
many
areas
throughout
the
Commonwealth
we
are
making
a
difference
cannot
say
that
the
dollar
is
99
cent
return
on
investment,
I
I
can't
give
you
those
numbers,
but
we
did
today's
meeting
itself.
F
We
talked
about
how
to
better
quantify
and
come
up
with
those
things.
Mr
Davis
I
appreciate
your
concerns
and
I
appreciate
your
conscientious
approach
to
the
to
your
service
on
this
Board
of
Supervisors
I.
Believe
in
these
programs
and
I
know
many
others
do
and
whether
they
come
from
a
farm
background
or
not.
They
are
knowledgeable
about
the
work
that
we
do.
I
appreciate
the
opportunity
to
respond
to
you.
E
Thank
you.
Yes,
sir
I
invite
anybody
any
of
you
all
to
come
to
my
farm
and
and
view
for
yourselves
where
we
graze
our
cattle
on
pastures,
adjacent
to
tributaries
and
where
our
cows
do,
in
fact
drink
from
the
tributaries
and
also
automatic
waterers
that
I
have
paid
for
out
of
my
own
pocket
and
placed
in
areas
where
I
believe
can
be
best
for
my
cattle
which,
by
the
way,
are
not
near
the
tributaries.
But
but
the
point
of
all
this
is
is
is
Cattlemen
everywhere
and
well.
E
Cattle
are
being
made
out
to
be
the
blame
for
everything,
from
the
depletion
of
the
ozone
layer
and
to
polluting
the
waters.
When
the
truth
is,
it's
I've
been
in
farming,
in
Virginia,
since
1969
and
and
throughout
all
my
years,
I've,
never
known
of
any
of
the
waters
around
Central
Virginia
to
be
polluted
by
cattle.

The
application
was
reviewed
by
the
county,
's
Wireless
consultant,
and
it
was
determined
that
it
conforms
to
welfare
to
all
federal
state
and
County
regulations.
There
are
no
obvious
historic
or
environmental
impacts
because
of
its
height,
the
tower
will
be
visible
from
surrounding
views.
The
proposed
Landscaping
plan
will
reduce
the
compound's
visual
impact
at
ground
level.
However,
the
tower
will
still
be
visible
above
the
trees
at
maturity.
K
K
In
here
the
recommended
conditions,
the
monopole
tower
associated
with
the
wireless
communication
facility
class
4
use,
shall
not
exceed
195
feet
in
height.
The
monopole
tower
shall
be
maintained
with
a
non-reflective
galvanized
steel
finish
all
general
safety
recommendations
from
the
Atlantic
technology.
Consultants
report
shall
be
followed.

it's
motion
by
sharp.
Is
there
a
second
I
think
about
Scott
all
those
in
favor
signify
for
saying,
aye,
aye
opposed
same
sign
and
that
passes
all
right.
We
move
on
to
action
and
discussion
items
and
we
have
a
consideration
of
a
resolution
authorizing
the
County
Administrator
to
execute
execute
contracts
for
on-call
asphalt,
paving
concrete
and
Associated
Services
as
required,
which
is
resolution
r012323-04
presentations
by
Public,
Works,
director,
Doug
Kaufman.
N
Good
evening,
ladies
and
gentlemen,
presenting
for
your
consideration
tonight
a
resolution
to
authorize
executing
contracts
for
on-call
Paving
and
concrete
services
tonight,
these
are
basically
on-call
Services
when
we
need
a
speedy
response
that
might
require
us
to
Act
quickly
to
maintain
functionality
at
our
solid
waste
facility,
other
County
agencies,
our
departments-
could
also
use
those
contracts,
if
needed,
for
various
things.
If
it
was
an
emergency,
Paving,
repair,
emergency,
concrete
work
for
a
plumbing
mishap
or
something
to
that
effect
is
essentially
what
the
purpose
of
these
are.
We
advertised
them
publicly
received
bids
or
proposals.
F
A
N
E
N
E
N
E
Yes,
sir,
well,
like
I,
said
I've
I
I've
been
in
this
industry
for
a
long
long
time
and
I'm
not
familiar
with
something.
That's
the
only
reason
why
I
was
asking
the
last
question:
is
there
any
binding
contract
or
agreement
that
would
would
force
Bedford
County
if,
if
something
did
go
awry
to
to
stick
with
him
in
this
Venture,
no.
N
A
N
Similar
to
the
on-call
Paving
and
concrete
services,
this
is
for
on-call
Welding
and
Fabrication
Services,
primarily
intended
for
the
solid
waste
facility
and
any
emergency
welding
repairs
and
fabrications
that
might
be
needed
there,
where
we
might
not
have
the
luxury
of
time
that
it
would
take
to
design
bid
and
then
build
the
project.
So
it
gives
us
some
emergency
repair
Avenues.
We
wouldn't
otherwise.
Have
we
advertise
this
publicly
I
believe
this
one
we
actually
advertised
publicly
twice
trying
to
get
applications
and
submissions.
N
M
A
By
Mr
Sharp,
this
is
a
roll
call
vote,
Mr
Johnson,
yes,
MS,
bansling,
MR,
sharp,
yes,
Miss
Parker,
yes,
Mr
Scott,
yes,
Mr
Davis,
yes
and
chair
votes,
yes
and
last
item
for
Doug
is
consideration
of
resolution
authorized
in
the
County
Administrator
execute
a
contract
for
exterior
repairs
to
the
Bedford
Museum
resolution.
R0123.
A
N
Yes,
back
in
September,
you
would
authorize
an
advertisement
for
bid
for
exterior
Renovations
at
the
Bedford
Museum,
as
an
older
building
needs
a
little
dressing
up
in
order
to
preserve
the
building
itself
as
well
as
the
contents
inside
of
it.
We
advertise
that
for
bid
postponed
it
once
based
on
some
requests
from
contractors
to
allow
them
time
to
do.
Research
allow
them
to
do
additional
site
visits.
If
necessary.
N
We
ended
up
receiving
three
total
bids
and
Midwest
maintenance
Incorporated
with
the
apparent
low
bidder
they
actually
specialize
in
this
kind
of
work.
They've
done
all
sorts
of
church,
Renovations,
historic
buildings
all
over
the
east
coast
in
the
midwest.
They
are
very
well
qualified
to
do
this
work
and
we
suggest,
with
your
blessing,
to
authorize
the
County
Administrator
to
execute
a
contract
with
Midwest
maintenance
Incorporated
to
do
the
exterior
renovations
to
the
Bedford
Museum.

Start
putting
the
social
services
minutes
monthly
minutes,
of
course,
they're
a
lag
behind
because
they
have
to
be
approved,
but
once
they're
approved,
if
we
could
just
add
them
to
our
packets
Just
for
information
like
we
do
the
brwa
minutes
and
and
other
things
I
think
it
would
be
beneficial
for
the
citizens
to
kind
of
know.
What's
going
on
on
the
social
service,
Arena
and.
O
Just
so
everybody
knows,
I
can
start
doing
that
right
away.
They
also
send
me
their
minutes
to
post
on
our
website.
So
if
you
go
where
we
post
the
ones
for
the
Board
of
Supervisors
or
whatever
you'll
see
a
long
list
of
different
groups,
if
you
click
on
the
one
for
social
services,
all
of
theirs
will
come
up
for
the
past.
I
think
back
to
the
beginning
of
2019..
That.
P
A
P
Now,
therefore,
it
be
resolved
at
the
Bedford
County
Board
of
Supervisors
does
hereby
certify
that,
to
the
best
of
each
member's
knowledge
on
the
public
business
matters
lawfully
Exempted
from
open
media
requirements
by
Virginia
law
were
discussing
includes
meaning
to
which
the
certification
resolution
applies
and
on
the
such
public
business
matters
were
identified
in
the
motion.
Convenient

in
was
hurt,
discussed
or
considered
by
the
Bedford
County
Board
of

Mr
Johnson.
Yes,.
M
F
A
C
A
We
have
a
motion
by
sharp
seconded
by
bandsly
to
appoint
Joseph
Byron
to
the
board
of
zoning
appeals
for
a
term
beginning
immediately
and
ending
December
31st
2027.,
all
those
in
favor
signify,
I'm,
saying
aye,
aye
aye
all
opposed
same
sign
the
passes
well,
Mr
Sarah.
Would
you
like
to
give
an
administrative
report
I.
Q
Sure
would
thank
you,
Mr
chair,
just
two
quick
things:
real
estate
assessments
are
underway.
Meetings
with
Wingate
their
last
advertised
day
is
the
26th
of
this
week,
and
we
have
not
heard
that
that's
going
to
be
extended,
so
those
should
be
coming
to
a
close.
This
week
it's
been
a
steady,
steady
volume
of
citizens
coming
in,
but
it
hasn't
been
very
overwhelming,
as
we
generally
thought
and
I
think
that
was
a
good
part
of
communication
on
the
board's
part
about
future
tax
rate
discussions
and
the
like
kind
of
dwelling.
Q
Some
of
those
concerns
personal
property
tax
rebates.
First
batch
of
checks
are
in
the
mail.
As
of
today
we
had
a
great
team
effort
from
I.T
Finance,
Commissioner,
Revenue
and
Treasurer
over
the
weekend,
both
Saturday
and
Sunday
running
batches
of
those
checks
running
that
process
through
we
are
about
36
percent
complete.
Q
As
of
last
night
and
more
were
happening
today,
we
have
processed
about
22
000
personal
property
IDs,
thus
far,
resulting
in
a
little
over
8
000
refunds,
which
amount
for
just
over
a
million
dollars
in
rebates
that
are
going
out,
and
we
hope
to
continue
that
this
week
as
well
as
into
next
weekend,
and
it
should
be
wrapping
up.
If
all
goes
smoothly,
we
did
hit
a
few
small
hiccups,
but
we've
worked
through
those
and
we're
able
to
isolate,
and
so
far
so
far,
so
good
good
great.
