and appealing cultural atmosphere to live, play and do business.
Ou r Vision f or t h e Tow n
We envision Warrenton as a place with
strong character and history. It has a lively

experience that boasts a welcoming and
safe environment for everyone. It is a
vibrant and charming community filled with
thriving businesses, exceptional public

Town Council Meeting Item Number: 6.a.
October 10, 2017
Agenda Memorandum
Submitted by: Bo Tucker, Director of Public Works and Utilities
Issue: FY18 Budget Amendment and Appropriation of VDOT Funds for Resurfacing
Projects
Background: The VDOT Primary Road State of Good Repair Program provides additional
maintenance funding for pavement overlays in addition to annual maintenance funding.
Primary road sections are rated as to condition and scored based on a number of
different criteria. VDOT notified the Town earlier in 2017 that 3 primary road sections
in town had a good chance of receiving funding.
Discussion: On March 16, 2017 staff submitted applications for funding for the following primary
roads:
1. Broadview Avenue (Waterloo to Winchester Street) for $511,147.
2. Lee Highway (northbound Winchester to Blackwell Road) for $173,898
3. Route 211, Frost Ave (westbound Broadview light to corporate limits) for
$105,662
At the time of application the Broadview Avenue project had been denied for Highway
Safety funding for the corridor and the Town was awaiting word on the
SMARTSCALE application.
Regardless of the SMARTSCALE outcome, the Broadview Avenue pavement would
not survive another 4-5 years awaiting 2021/2022 funding if approved. In mid-June
2017, the Town was notified by VDOT that all three projects were approved for full
funding. On August 30, 2017 Project Administration Agreements were executed with
VDOT funding available for reimbursement after execution of projects. The key
element of the agreement is that the projects must be advertised within 6 months of the
agreement.
Staff presented the proposed FY18 Budget Amendment to the Finance Committee on
September 12, 2017. The Committee forwarded a recommendation to Council for
approval.
Financial Impact: Amendment of the FY18 Budget and appropriation will increase General Fund
Revenue - Categorical Aid - VDOT State of Good Repair Funds by $790,697 and
increase General Fund Expenditures - Arterial Street Maintenance by $790,697.
Recommended Adopt the attached resolution amending the FY18 Budget and appropriating
Action: $790,697 for the three resurfacing projects.

October 10, 2017
Agenda Memorandum
Submitted by: Brannon Godfrey, Town Manager
Issue: FY18 Budget Amendment and Appropriation of PATH Foundation Grant for
Intersection Improvements at Main St and Fifth St
Background: On Saturday August 5, the Town and PATH Foundation summer interns implemented
a demonstration project to extend the sidewalk and install other temporary traffic
calming measures at the intersection of Main and Fifth Streets. In conjunction with the
demonstration project and to work toward the goal to slow traffic and provide safe
pedestrian crossings, staff submitted an application to the PATH Foundation to fund
the construction of bulb-outs at the four corners of the intersection.
Traffic studies have shown that bulb-outs at improve pedestrian safety in three ways: 1)
they improve pedestrian visibility; 2) they shorten the street crossing distance for
pedestrians thereby reducing their exposure the motor vehicles; and 3) the narrowing of
the street width encourages drivers to drive at slower speeds.
The implementation of this grant-funded project will be the first step toward
designing wider sidewalks and other complete street standards. Building on its
success, the Town can then apply the design to other intersections throughout Town.
Discussion: On September 18, the PATH Foundation notified the Town of award of the grant. The
notice of grant award & grant agreement, and the grant application are attached below.
If accepted, Town staff will design and implement the project in FY18. Acceptance of
the grant funds and appropriation requires an amendment to the FY18 Budget.
Financial Impact: Amendment of the FY18 Budget and appropriation will increase General Fund
Revenue - Miscellaneous - Local Grant Revenue by $45,000 and increase General
Fund Expenditures - Collector Street Maintenance by $45,000.
Recommended Accept the $45,000 PATH Foundation Grant for the pedestrian safety improvement
Action: project at the Main St. and Fifth St. intersection, and amend the FY18 Budget and
appropriate the funds for the project.

Grant Request
The PATH Foundation and Town of Warrenton enjoy a partnership of working towards
promoting the health and quality of life of its residents. The Town has been blessed to be the
recipient of several PATH Foundation grants and the location of two PATH Foundation
intern projects. There is now an opportunity to move towards creating a lasting change
through a set aside grant of up to $50,000 to pilot increased walkability through the design
and construction of an Old Town intersection.
December 8, 2015 the Town Council passed the HEAL (Healthy Eating Active
Lifestyle) Initiative. This initiative recognizes the impact policies and practices of the
Town have on the health of its residents.
Initiative includes Physical Activity, Active Transportation, and Land Use benchmark
to examine, among other items, adoption of a Complete Streets policy for planners,
BACKGROUND engineers, parks and recreation, and economic development personnel to take into
consideration during construction of parks, streets, neighborhoods, and business areas.
Complete Streets Guidance builds upon the recommendations from the Walkability
Audits.
WALKABILITY AUDIT
RECOMMENDATIONS
The ability to walk safely and comfortably is heavily dependent on the
design of the built environment.
Install bulb outs at intersections along Main Street from 1st to 5th
Streets. Building out the sidewalk at intersections helps to make pedestrians
more visible and shorten crossing distances for people crossing the street. In
addition, bulb outs help simplify curb ramp placement and prevent illegal
car parking too close to crosswalks this is also known as daylighting the
intersection for pedestrian safety.
The PATH Foundation interns have developed two projects in Warrenton. The first
project conducted in the summer of 2016, called Walk Your Warrenton, helped to
overcome preconceived ideas and educate the community on how long it took to
walk to key destinations in Old Town. The idea was designed to encourage the
community to walk by communicating distance was potentially less than assumed.
PATH Intern
The second project, Linger Longer, held on August 5, 2017 builds on the Old Town
recommendation of the Walkability Audit Report. For one day, the PATH interns
transformed the intersection of Main Street and South Fifth Street with bulb-outs
Projects that improved pedestrian safety.
MANASSAS
The Battle Street project was not without
controversy. Many merchants expressed deep
BATTLE concerns over the street being reconfigured and
the perceived negative impact it might have on
BATTLE
STREET
AFTER
TAKEAWAY:
A Champion. The City of Manassas had a champion that sought
to better the downtowns through action. They kept building on
successes.
Total: $49,170
The Town is grateful for investments PATH Foundation has made in its future. We hope the
PATH Foundation will consider continuing in its efforts to move the community forward
towards a more physically, socially, mentally healthy environment through the design,
engineering, and building of an improved intersection in Old Town.

Town Council Meeting Item Number: 6.c.
October 10, 2017
Agenda Memorandum
Submitted by: Stephanie Miller
Issue: FY18 Budget Amendment and Appropriation of Capital Projects Carried Over
from FY17
Background: The approval of the annual budget constitutes a legal appropriation of funds for one
fiscal year (July 1 through June 30). All appropriations lapse as of June 30. There are
often grants, purchase orders and projects that are not complete as of that date due to
scheduling, weather or other factors. The Carryover Request lists those items that are
ongoing or incomplete as of June 30.
Discussion: The attached listing shows open purchase orders for which goods were not received or
services rendered by the close of the fiscal year (June 30). The Encumbrances sections
provides detail regarding these open purchase orders, including the vendor, a
description of the item or services and the funding source. At the end of this listing is a
summary by funding source. The second part of the Carryover Request relates to
Unexpended Appropriations and Capital Projects. These are projects that did not get
underway during FY2017. Similar to the Encumbrances section, each project contains
a description, an amount and the funding source. At the end of the listing is a summary
by funding source.
Financial Impact: The bulk of the purchase orders to be carried over are covered with outside funding or
bond proceeds; only $51,500 is requested to be carried over from the General Fund
fund balance. The unexpended appropriations / capital projects request the
appropriation of $253,315 of General Fund fund balance. The total requested
appropriation is $2,548,540.40, of which $304,815 is requested to be funded by
General Fund fund balance.
Recommended Recommend approval and appropriation of funds in the Fiscal Year 2018 budget to
Action: support the requested Carry Over of Encumbrances and Projects from FY 2017.

FY 2017 CARRYOVER REQUEST
The approval of the annual budget constitutes a legal appropriation of funds for one fiscal
year (July 1 June 30). All appropriations lapse as of June 30th. However, there are often
grants, purchase orders and projects that are not complete as of that date, due to scheduling,
weather, or other factors. The following list shows those items that are ongoing or incomplete as
of June 30th. Since they were budgeted to be completed in FY 2017, funds for these items were
not anticipated in the creation of the FY 2018 budget. We are requesting that the FY 2018
budget be amended to appropriate funds for these items.
Please note that many of these are split between departments or funds. Since the Resolution
appropriates totals by line item for the various funds, detail regarding which funds, departments
and general ledger account numbers are charged for each purchase order is provided below.

September 2017
Responded to a water leak call at 10 Rock Pointe Lane. Leak was determined to be on the
customer's side of the line located in their parking lot.
Responded to a water leak call at North Rock Shopping Center. Upon investigation it was
determined that the leak was on the customer's irrigation line.
On-call personnel reported that there was a water leak at 7447 Silver Cup. Once on site,
personnel determined that there wasn't a water leak and that the water flow was coming
from a nearby swimming pool that was being drained.
Crews made a water tap at 646 Fauquier Road and installed a " water connection, meter
setter, and meter crock with frame and cover.
Both Public Works and Public Utilities crews worked together to install a new water
connection on Waterloo Road between the WARF and the Stonecrest Subdivision. The
line is connected but still needs to be charged and bacteriological test needs to be
collected before the line can be approved and put into service. This will be completed
soon.
Serviced 93 fire hydrants. Fire hydrants are serviced as part of the Annual Maintenance
Program.
Weekly waterline flushing at Turkey Run Drive, Windsor Ridge, and Monroe Estates.

This was most likely a result from the recent water main break off of Route 29 just
upstream of Warrenton Lakes.
Assisted Public Works with traffic flagging during pavement patching at South Fifth
Street, Washington Street, Monroe Street and Bear Wallow Road.
Met with Mr. Aron Newby to discuss a new water and sewer project off of Boundary
Lane.

2. Inflow and Infiltration Reduction into the Sanitary Sewer System: Contractor has been
focusing on smoke testing since mid September. A public notification effort was
conducted the first week of September to give advance notice of this work. All work has
been coordinated with the Police Department and Emergency Services. There have been
a few issues where smoke has entered homes when folks did not see or read the notice
causing some citizen complaints, however emergency personnel and staff have been able
to adequately address the immediate concerns.
3. Warrenton Reservoir Dam Spillway: Project is completed and awaiting the Five-Year
Operational Certificate. Staff performed the Annual Dam Inspection in September and
forwarded to DCR. This is the last report on this project.
4. WeJI #3 Re.activation: Project continues ahead of schedule. Brine has been ordered for
the brine tank for testing purposes and initial start-up of equipment once all internal
equipment is installed. The Well building has been constructed and painted. Interior
work continues. All material and design submittals have been reviewed and approved.
Contractor is shooting for an October project completion, which would be 50-60 days
ahead of schedule.
7. Old Waterloo Road Waterline Connection: Completed. This is the last report for this
project. Staff has started the preliminary planning for the extension of the Blackwell
Road waterline project (FY19 project) due to the line break on Route 29 north feeding the
Warrenton Lakes area.
8. Falmouth and Shirley lntersection: Carson Land Consultants has completed the 30%
design, and a copy was sent to VDOT for their blessing. Nathan Umberger, ofVDOT,
said it looked good and design is proceeding. This is to be a topic of discussion with this
month's Public Safety and Transportation Committee. Design is anticipated to be
completed and accepted by VDOT before the end of this year. A coordination meeting
was held with Dominion Power to get them planning for the relocation of a power pole
and lines that are currently on the southeast comer of the intersection. Other utilities do
not appear to be in significant conflict with this project, the design will need to address
drainage issues on the VDOT Residency comer of the intersection. This will be
integrated in the design phase of the project.
9. Blackwell Road Lee Highway Mast Arm Conversion: Virginia Sign & Lighting Company
has initiated work on this project and a series of material submittals currently under
review. Geotechnical borings have been completed and the engineering calculations for
the pole foundations and pole fabrications have been submitted. Staging of construction
materials may be stored at the Water Plant on Blackwell Road. Our Facilities/Building
Electrical Technician is currently on hand to follow this project execution so that the
power and light phasing can be coordinated and so he will be familiar with the
infrastructure and operations to make adjustments and maintain light sequencing. There
will be some lane closures during the next couple of weeks in preparation. The primary
pole and mast arm work is scheduled to be done in December.
10. Gold Cup Sidewalk: Project concrete work is incorporated into the Annual Sidewalk
Curb and Gutter Contract, IFB 18-004 which was advertised in September with the bid
opening on the 21st with 4 bids received. Espina Paving from Woodbridge was the low
bidder. Anticipate final contract award by October 13th On September g \ staff met with
t
the residents at 172 Blue Ridge Street to explain that their side fence was in the Town
right of way and would be relocated back to the right of way line as part of the project.
11. VDOT Primaiy Road, State of Good Repair Paving: Awaiting approval by Council to
include the grant money into the amended FY18 budget. Staff has prepared the bid
packages with advertisement by mid October and award by the end of the month. The
following paving projects must be advertised within 6 months or the Town may lose the
funding. With the delayed advertising, the projects will likely miss the fall paving season
and be delayed until the spring of 2018.
West Bound Lee Highway ($173,898)- Public Works plans to repave the east bound
lanes this year during the project with the annual arterial maintenance funding.
12. Stonn Sewer Repairs, 3rd Street and Franklin: Scheduled to begin second week of
October. Contractor has already made contact with Claire's Restaurant and will attempt
to minimize the disruption to the business. Construction time is approximately 3 weeks.
Coordination will be critical with local businesses.
13. 5th Street Parking Lot Lighting: No change since last report. Staff continues to investigate
two options for updating the lighting at the 5th Street Lot.
b. Staff has been in contact with commercial lighting companies for alternative
lighting poles and fixtures that would be completely the responsibility of the
Town. Advantage: More variety and cheaper long term costs; Disadvantage:
much higher capital costs initially.
14. Franklin Street Sidewalk: Portions of the concrete work are included in the Annual Curb,
Gutter and Sidewalk Concrete Contract that is scheduled to be awarded by mid to late
October. Staff has been in contact with the commercial lighting contractor that is the
local agent for the Old Town cast iron poles and fixtures.
GENERAL COMMENTS:
1. Rainfall amounts in September were below normal with 2.4 inches for the month. The
Warrenton Reservoir is down 6 inches and Airlie is fully charged. The summer months
overall have been above normal for precipitation and 38.6 inches of precipitation for the
year through 9 months. The average sewer flows at the treatment plant have been low
with 1.65 million gallons per day (mgd) for the month and 1.71 mgd average for the year.
This is noticeably low considering the amount of precipitation for the year.
2. Cemetery headstone repair is scheduled for the first week of October. If not started by
mid month, the Town will be looking to another source for the repairs. Purchase Order
has been approved for the repair of the most severely damaged headstones with Robert
Mosko, Mosko Cemetery Monument Services.
4. Staff prepared and submitted to DEQ the Annual MS4 Report for the 4th program year of
the current permit (Julyl, 2016 to June 30, 2017).
5. A waiting lighting proposal from Dominion Power for the replacement and relighting of
the 5th Street Parking Lot.
6. Staff has been working with the Trustees of the Warrenton Baptist Church for the renewal
of the lease period. An agreement has been reached and a revised lease is being prepared
for signatures.

Agenda Memorandum
Submitted by: Brannon Godfrey, Town Manager
As it is not in the Water Service District, by policy, the Town will charge 3 times the in-
town rate (3 x $4,950 x 10 taps), or $148,500 for the ten water taps. Service with water
also requires amendment to the Water & Sewer Service Agreement, subject to the
approval by the County and Fauquier County Water & Sanitation Authority.
Reservation of water availability for this project would be 3,000 gallons per day. It
would increase our total reservation of water treatment capacity from by 0.11%.
Including this demand, our total demand at build-out is is 75.66% of capacity.
Discussion: This matter was discussed by the Public Works & Utilities Committee at its September
11 meeting. Mr. Ross was present at the Committee meeting and acknowledged the
need to request Fauquier County and the Fauquier County Water & Sanitation
Authority (WSA) to amend the three-party Service Agreement boundaries for the water
service area.
Financial Impact: If approved by Council, and subsequently approved by the County and WSA, the
applicant will pay $148,500 in water availability fees for the ten water connections.
After connections are made, the property owners will pay consumption at out-of-town
rates (1.5 times the in-town rates).
Recommended Approve the resolution: 1) authorizing the extension of water service for ten (1)
Action: connections to the Ross property at 8108 Springs Rd. (Parcel ID# 6984-00-7961-000)
at three times the in-town availability fee and, 2) authorizing an amendment to the water
service area map in the three-party Service Area Agreement.

Town Council Meeting Item Number: 8.c.
October 10, 2017
Agenda Memorandum
Submitted by: Brannon Godfrey, Town Manager
Issue: Mobile Food Vendor Ordinance - One Year Review and Amendment
Background: The Town Council, Planning Commission and Town Staff developed the Mobile Food
Vendor Program in 2016 with input from vendors and citizens at several public
meetings. Town Council held public hearings at its August and September 2016
Council Meetings, concluding with its adoption of a text amendment to the Zoning
Ordinance, an Amendment to the Town Code exempting ice cream trucks, and a
resolution adopting the Mobile Food Vendor Polices and Procedures.
The Resolution and Section V of the Policies and Procedures prescribes that Town
Council will review the Mobile food Vendor Program after one year.
Staff developed and published the policies, brochure and permit application in
February 2017. There have only a few inquiries and no permit applications submitted
for approval since its adoption.
Discussion: Staff emailed the mobile food vendors who participated in the policy development
process in early 2016 for their feedback on why they did not apply for a permit and
suggestions for amending the code and policy. One vendor replied stating her concern
that participation in the program was not worth the effort unless they were allowed to
operate in the Central Business District.
At the Thursday, October 5 Work Session, Council discussed expanding the permitted
areas of operation to include Eva Walker Park. The Park is zoned P SP within its
boundaries, however there are no designated parking spaces. The on-street spaces along
Alexandria Pike adjacent to Eva Walker Park are in the CBD Zoning District. There is a
maintenance vehicle access though which Town staff would control mobile food vendors
access and coordinate an appropriate location to set up.
The consensus of Council at the Work Session was to add this item to the October 10
Council Agenda for consideration of amending the Mobile Food Vendor Policies and
Procedures to include Eva Walker Park.
Financial Impact: Participating mobile food vendors will generate revenue through payment of BPOL
fees, and sales and meals taxes.
Recommended Amend the Mobile Food Vendor Policies & Procedures "Section II - Designated
Action: Public Sites" to add a new subsection: "C. Eva Walker Park - area as established by
the Town Manager."

TOWN OF WARRENTON, VIRGINIA

For FY18
Background: Timber Fence Trail is a proposed multi-use .70 mile trail which provides the last piece
in the connection from Rady Park to the WARF. In response to feedback from
VDOT, the trail will be constructed in two segments. Segment One will connect the
Fauquier High School sidewalk to the trail in front of the Stonelea development along
Waterloo Road. Segment Two will connect Segment One to the existing trail on
Timber Fence Parkway, across the Fauquier High School property. Both segments
will provide walkability and bikeability for citizens.
Discussion: This resolution is required in order to seek funding through the Transportation
Alternatives Set-Aside Program.
We are also seeking a similar renewal resolution of support from Fauquier County.
Financial Impact: Total funding required for both segments of the trail is estimated at $958,273. We are
applying for the Transportation Alternatives Set-Aside Program grant, which could
provide 80% of the funding. Town and County will split the remaining 20%, making the
Towns share $95,827. Please note that this is a reimbursement grant, meaning that the
Town will expend the full amount for the trail and would be reimbursed by VDOT for
the amount funded.

Smartsheet Timeline Staff Report 10/7/2017
September 9, 2017
2. Mosby House: Staff, Joe Allen and DHR met in September to get an
understanding of their preferences on residential renovation designs, site
improvements and subdivision boundaries. DHR will be pretty flexible in
allowing most residential modifications and property boundaries. They
stated that DHRs goal is long-term preservation, regardless of whether it is
publicly or privately owned. Executed 90-day listing agreement on October
4.
from the WWTP to two hydrants on the fields to be $50,000, which would
be WFAs financial responsibility. WFA is now considering this proposal and
will get back to us.
5. Timber Fence Trail: LPDA is under contract has begun design services. The
design costs will be shared Fauquier Trails Coalition ($10,000) and the
County. The design work will be completed in order to submit a TAP grant
application to VDOT in November for the construction costs. LPDA is on
schedule with its design work.
6. Dog Park: We have executed a contract with Nathan Sellers of Blue & Gray
Construction Company to build the dog park for $60,000. The total project
cost is appropriated in the Town Budget at $70,000, with $62,500 available
as follows: $22,500 available from the developers original $30,000 proffer;
$25,000 from the Towns Recreation Proffer; and $15,000 reallocated from
the Depot Park project. Construction is complete. Planning an opening
date prior to November after sod is established.
Fresh Bucks program has increased sales by over $36,000 to-date through
September; $3,000 new customer purchases, and increased the number of
shoppers. As a result of the market success, we have had new vendor
applications to consider mid-season. Fresh Bucks are still being redeemed
each week.
16. DGS Property: The Town Attorney and Town Manager are working with
the Virginia Department of General Services (DGS) to negotiate settlement
and transfer of the 0.18-acre parcel owned by the State at the entrance to
4
September 9, 2017
the lower 5th Street Town parking lot (Lot G). DGS declined our initial
offer to transfer it to the Town in exchange for the Town paying all transfer
and closing costs. The Town Attorney and I working with another property
owner near another State-owned facility to try to assemble parcels to
exchange for the DGS parcel. This property owner has a board of directors
that has declined our proposal to work with the Town on a property trade.
17. Cemetery Restoration: We received the repair feasibility and cost report
from Robert Mosko. Of the 88 stones requiring treatment, the estimated
repair cost will vary depending on conditions as discovered upon further
excavation. The totals are as follows:
The Fauquier Historical Society and its Friends of the Cemetery that has
privately raised over $19,000 to date for restoration. There is an item on
Councils agenda to amend the FY18 Budget and appropriate these funds
for restoration. Staff has engaged Mosko to repair the worst-damaged
stones and will solicit quotes on re-setting and restoring the reminder of
the memorial damaged in April. There is $112,131 in accrued interest in
the Town Cemetery Perpetual Care Fund that is available for capital
projects; $7,000 has been planned for cemetery lane paving in FY18. Staff
believes that the historic nature of Cemetery justifies the use of some
Perpetual Care Funds for restoration of private memorials as a public
benefit. The cost to install historic wrought iron fence on Keith St. and
Beach St. to match the existing fence on Lee St. and Chestnut St. is
$105,696 and continuous wood along the Shirley Ave and Moffat St. sides is
$11,171.
18. Comprehensive Financial Policies: We have provided our auditor, Brown &
Edwards, with a draft set of policies for their review and recommendation.
19. FY18 Public Works and Utilities Projects: There are 14 utility and
transportation projects underway. The status for each of these projects is
5
September 9, 2017
detailed in the Public Works & Utilities Staff Report in item 7.b.1 on the
September 12 Council Agenda.
