City Sheriff’s office reaccreditation- Sheriff Eric Atkins of the City of Salem presented the
certificate to the Sheriff’s Office personnel for earning reaccreditation from the Virginia Law
Enforcement Professional Standards Commission (VLEPSC). Sheriff Atkins briefed Council on the
process for reaccreditation pointing out that seeking VLEPSC accreditation is strictly voluntary.
Accreditation standards provide norms against which an agency's performance can be measured
and monitored, boosting public confidence in how their community is being served in crime
prevention and control. During December 2012, the VLEPSC certified assessors spent three days
with the Martinsville Sheriff’s Office going through files, randomly interviewing deputies to test their
knowledge, touring the facilities, riding along with civil enforcement deputies, and conducting other
functions for their audit. There were zero deficiencies noted and the Martinsville Sheriff's Office
complied with all 188 standards set forth by VLEPSC. With a 100 percent score, the Martinsville
Sheriff's Office went before the VLEPSC accreditation board on January 10, 2013 where it was
July 23, 2013
announced the office earned the seal of approval as an accredited Virginia law enforcement agency.
This was Martinsville Sheriff’s Office second accreditation. The executive board consists of
representatives selected by the Virginia Sheriffs' Association (VSA), and the Virginia Association of
Chiefs of Police (VACP). The Department of Criminal Justice Services (DCJS) provides oversight.
VLEPSC accreditation indicates that participating Virginia agencies are systematically measured
and evaluated on policy and procedure. Law enforcement professionalism is advanced through the
establishment of professional standards. There is a formal mechanism by which all accredited
agencies across the Commonwealth of Virginia are measured and delivery of services is more
effective and efficient. Cooperation and coordination among all components of the criminal justice
system is promoted and the appropriate level of training for law enforcement personnel is ensured.
Ultimately, public confidence in law enforcement is enhanced. VLEPSC accreditation remains in
effect for four years and it is a coveted award that symbolizes professionalism, excellence, and
competence.
Recognition of retiring Police Chief Mike Rogers: City Council formally recognized retiring Police Chief
Mike Rogers with presentation of a Key to the City in appreciation for over 33 years of dedicated service to the
citizens of Martinsville, VA from February, 1980 to July, 2013 and for serving the Martinsville Police
Department as Police Chief. Council members, along with Commonwealth’s Attorney Joan Ziglar, and
several citizens made comments commending Chief Rogers for his service. City Neighborhood Watch group
members and Lane Shively, City Garage employee, along with Officer Coretha Gravely presented Chief Rogers
with a framed, enlarged reproduction of a former patch that officers wore on their uniforms.
Proclamation for National Night Out 2013: Mayor Adkins read and presented a proclamation
regarding National Night Out August 6, 2013 to Officer Coretha Gravely and Neighborhood Watch members.
Proclamation for Smith River Week 2013: Mayor Adkins read and presented a proclamation regarding
Smith River Week to Brian Williams and members of the Smith River Fest Committee.
Council Neighborhood meetings FY: Council discussed locations for the Neighborhood Focus Meetings to be
held in September, November, February, and April. City Staff was directed to firm up locations using Council’s
suggestions of Druid Hills School Administration office for the September meeting, Fuller Memorial Church for
Southside meeting, Chatham Hts. Baptist for the Northside meeting, and the City Housing Office for the Westside
meeting.
Passport fees ordinance first reading: City Attorney Eric Monday briefed Council on the ordinance
regarding recovery of passport fees. The Clerk of the Circuit Court processes applications for passports as a
Passport Agent for the State Department. He remits all application and processing fees set by the Department
of State for processing the applications to the Commonwealth, but is allowed to reimburse the City for
passport application mailing costs. The Clerk also takes and processes passport photographs. Although
authority to process passport applications is recognized and allowed by the Commonwealth of Virginia, the
State appropriates no funding for this activity; the City supports this activity financially, under authority of
Code of Virginia section 15.2-1656, by furnishing supplies and equipment to accomplish this purpose. The
Clerk recommends that an ordinance be adopted to ensure these funds remain with the City and are not
intercepted and redirected to the Commonwealth. On a motion by Gene Teague, seconded by Mark Stroud,
July 23, 2013
with the following recorded vote of 4-0: Adkins, aye; Teague, aye; Stroud, aye; and Hodge, aye, (Turner-
absent), Council approved the following proposed ordinance on first reading. Council will consider the
ordinance again at the August 13, 2013 meeting for the second reading and final vote.
2-27. Recovery of Costs Related to Passport Applications.
The Clerk of Martinsville Circuit Court is authorized:
(1) To collect a Passport Photo Fee of $15 from every passport applicant who requests photograph services; and
(2) To assess and collect passport application mailing costs; and
(3) To pay the fees and recovered costs monthly to the Treasurer of the City of Martinsville.
Should Passport Agent authority of the Office of the Clerk of Martinsville Circuit Court be removed or suspended, either temporarily or permanently,
by the United States Department of State, the Clerk shall immediately notify the Martinsville City Manager. Collections of revenue authorized by this
Section shall cease during any period of removal or suspension, and shall immediately resume upon re-authorization of the Office of the Clerk of
Martinsville Circuit Court as Passport Agent. State code reference: Code of Virginia § 15.2-1656
Sewer/water discharges ordinance first reading: City Attorney Eric Monday briefed Council on the
ordinance regarding unlawful sewer/water discharges pointing out that an issue has arisen concerning
discharge of commercial car wash water into City streets and storm water systems and the existing ordinance
is too vague to be enforceable. An attempt to resolve the issue short of legislation has been unsuccessful.
Discussions with Director of the Water Department indicated that an expansion of the existing ordinance to
protect the storm water system more generally would be appropriate. Council discussion included whether
due diligence has been done before putting people out of business and the ordinance impact on streams. On
a motion by Gene Teague, seconded by Mark Stroud, with the following recorded vote of 4-0: Adkins, aye;
Teague, aye; Stroud, aye; and Hodge, aye, (Turner-absent), Council approved the following ordinance on first
reading.
Sec. 23-3. - Unlawful disposal of sewage and waste water.

Finance report: Finance Director Linda Conover presented the following finance report:
FY13 – Revenues & Expenditures through June 30, 2013; Combined Balance Sheet; Projected Fund Balance
Although FY13 officially ended on June 30, all year-end transactions will not be finalized until early fall in order to
realize all earned revenue and incurred expenses for the fiscal year. The annual audit process will begin in late
September or early October. The reports provided this evening reflect only the actual transactions to-date and some of the
anticipated transactions yet to occur. Additional adjustments will impact both revenues and expenditures before FY13 is
officially “closed”.
Exclusive of School and Special Revenue funds, actual revenues posted to-date are $57,896,800, representing 96.6%
of the anticipated $59,957,500 through the fourth quarter, ending June 30th. Representing eleven months, Local
Sales/Use Taxes received from the Commonwealth through June 30 are ahead of anticipated by $59,490, for total receipts
of $1,883,490. Utility revenues in Refuse, Water, and Sewer Fund were all greater than anticipated; Electric Fund
revenues were less than anticipated for June 30. Actual expenditures currently posted through June 30 are $64,417,320.
Currently, as of the end of the FY13 fourth quarter, the current total combined fund balance for FY13 is $21,781,721,
a decrease over FY12 of $4,990,800. The unadjusted available cash-on-hand June 30th for all City Funds was $15.8
million.
The projected fund balance, including all Utility Funds, for FY13 is $17,205,067 – a decrease from FY12 year-end of
$9,567,454. Based upon this projection, the unassigned Fund Balance would be $3,424,471 for non-utility funds and
$9,347,123 for utility funds, for a total of $12,771,594. Again, these numbers are still fluid and will change as the year-
end closing process continues. There are still many revenue, expense and balance sheet adjustments to be made.
On a motion by Gene Teague, seconded by Mark Stroud, with a 4-0 vote, Council approved the finance report.
Consent Agenda: On a motion by Gene Teague, seconded by Sharon Brooks Hodge, with a 4-0 vote,
Council approved the following consent agenda:

Agenda Summary
Meeting Date: July 23, 2013
Item No: 2.
Department: Sheriff
Issue: Recognition of City Sheriff’s office first Reaccreditation.
Summary:
The Martinsville Sheriff's Office recently earned reaccreditation from the Virginia Law
Enforcement Professional Standards Commission (VLEPSC).
Seeking VLEPSC accreditation is strictly voluntary. An independent evaluation of the agency
ensures best practices are exercised by the Martinsville Sheriff's Office. Accreditation
standards provide norms against which an agency's performance can be measured and
monitored, boosting public confidence in how their community is being served in crime
prevention and control.
This past December 2012 the VLEPSC certified assessors spent three days going through files,
randomly interviewing deputies to test their knowledge, touring the facilities, riding along with
civil enforcement deputies, and conducting other functions for their audit. There were zero
deficiencies noted.
The Martinsville Sheriff's Office complied with all 188 standards set forth by VLEPSC. With a
100 percent score, the Martinsville Sheriff's Office went before the VLEPSC accreditation board
on January 10, 2013 where it was announced the office earned the seal of approval as an
accredited Virginia law enforcement agency. This was Martinsville Sheriff’s Office second
accreditation.
The executive board consists of representatives selected by the Virginia Sheriffs' Association
(VSA), and the Virginia Association of Chiefs of Police (VACP). The Department of Criminal
Justice Services (DCJS) provides oversight.
VLEPSC accreditation indicates that participating Virginia agencies are systematically
measured and evaluated on policy and procedure. Law enforcement professionalism is
advanced through the establishment of professional standards.
There is a formal mechanism by which all accredited agencies across the Commonwealth of
Virginia are measured. Delivery of services is more effective and efficient. Cooperation and
coordination among all components of the criminal justice system is promoted. The
appropriate level of training for law enforcement personnel is ensured. Ultimately, public
confidence in law enforcement is enhanced.
Representatives of the VLEPSC Commission will be in attendance to present the certificate to
the Sheriff’s Office.
VLEPSC accreditation remains in effect for four years. It is a coveted award that symbolizes
professionalism, excellence, and competence.

Department: Clerk of Circuit Court, City Attorney
Issue: Consider approval of ordinance, on first reading, regarding
recovery of passport fees.
Summary: The Clerk of the Circuit Court processes applications for
passports as a Passport Agent for the State Department. He remits all
application and processing fees set by the Department of State for processing
the applications to the Commonwealth, but is allowed to reimburse the City
for passport application mailing costs. He also takes and processes passport
photographs. Although authority to process passport applications is
recognized and allowed by the Commonwealth of Virginia, the state
appropriates no funding for this activity; the City supports this activity
financially, under authority of Code of Virginia section 15.2-1656, by
furnishing supplies and equipment to accomplish this purpose. The Clerk
recommends that an ordinance be adopted to ensure these funds remain with
the City and are not intercepted and redirected to the Commonwealth.
Attachments: Draft ordinance and fiscal impact statement
Recommended Action: Motion to approve on first reading with a roll

FISCAL IMPACT STATEMENT
Title: Recovery of Costs Related to Passport Applications
Summary/Purpose:
The purpose of this ordinance is to authorize the Clerk of Circuit Court to reimburse the City of
Martinsville for its financial support in processing passport applications.
In furtherance of its duties as a Passport Agent for the United States Department of State, the Clerk’s
Office incurs two expenses that are funded solely by support from the City of Martinsville: (1) passport
application mailing costs, and (2) passport photography.
Passport Application Mailing Costs:
Since October 1, 2009, the Clerk has been authorized by the Commonwealth of Virginia to reimburse the
locality for passport application mailing costs. By this Ordinance, this reimbursement authority is
recognized and a procedure is authorized to remit this revenue to the City Treasurer.
Passport Photography:
Since March 2010, the Clerk’s Office has been authorized by the Department of State to take passport
photographs, a requirement for every application. This photography requires special camera equipment,
unique software and photography supplies. The Commonwealth of Virginia requires the Clerk’s Office
to pay all agent fees to the state, but (other than reimbursement for mailing costs) it appropriates no
financial support for passport processing. Pursuant to Code of Virginia § 15.2-1656, cost funding for
passport photography is funded exclusively by the City of Martinsville. By this Ordinance, a fee is
established in an amount sufficient to recover the cost of photography supplies and camera
maintenance, and authorizes a procedure to remit this revenue to the City Treasurer.
Fiscal Implications:
Passport Application Mailing Costs:
The amount of costs recovered depends on the number of passport applications processed. The Clerk’s
Office estimates approximately $800 in recaptured costs for FY2013-14.
Passport Photography:
The amount of cost recapture depends on the number of applicants who request photography services.
The Clerk’s Office estimates approximately $4,000 in fees for FY2013-14.
Affected Departments: Circuit Court Clerk’s Office
Effective Date: Upon adoption by City Council.
This revenue is currently being collected as indicated above. This Ordinance establishes the grounds for
the collection and confirms the collection procedure.
City Council
Agenda Summary
Date: July 23, 2013
Item No: 8.
Department: City Attorney
Issue: Consider approval of ordinance, on first reading, regarding
unlawful sewer / water discharges.
Summary: An issue has arisen concerning discharge of commercial car
wash water into City streets and stormwater systems. The existing ordinance
is too vague to be enforceable. An attempt to resolve the issue short of
legislation has been unsuccessful. Discussions with Director of the Water
Department indicated that an expansion of the existing ordinance to protect
the stormwater system more generally would be appropriate.
Attachments: Draft ordinance
Recommended Action: Consider approval of ordinance, on first
reading, with a roll call vote.

Meeting Date: July 23, 2013
Item No: 9.
Department: Finance
Issue: Monthly Financial Report
Summary:
FY13 – Revenues & Expenditures through June 30, 2013; Combined Balance
Sheet; Projected Fund Balance
Although FY13 officially ended on June 30, all year-end transactions will not be
finalized until early fall in order to realize all earned revenue and incurred
expenses for the fiscal year. The annual audit process will begin in late September
or early October. The reports provided this evening reflect only the actual
transactions to-date and some of the anticipated transactions yet to occur.
Additional adjustments will impact both revenues and expenditures before FY13 is
officially “closed”.
Exclusive of School and Special Revenue funds, actual revenues posted to-date
are $57,896,800, representing 96.6% of the anticipated $59,957,500 through the
fourth quarter, ending June 30th. Representing eleven months, Local Sales/Use
Taxes received from the Commonwealth through June 30 are ahead of anticipated
by $59,490, for total receipts of $1,883,490. Utility revenues in Refuse, Water,
and Sewer Fund were all greater than anticipated; Electric Fund revenues were
less than anticipated for June 30. Actual expenditures currently posted through
June 30 are $64,417,320.
Currently, as of the end of the FY13 fourth quarter, the current total combined
fund balance for FY13 is $21,781,721, a decrease over FY12 of $4,990,800. The
unadjusted available cash-on-hand June 30th for all City Funds was $15.8
million.
The projected fund balance, including all Utility Funds, for FY13 is
$17,205,067 – a decrease from FY12 year-end of $9,567,454. Based upon this
projection, the unassigned Fund Balance would be $3,424,471 for non-utility
funds and $9,347,123 for utility funds, for a total of $12,771,594. Again, these
numbers are still fluid and will change as the year-end closing process continues.
There are still many revenue, expense and balance sheet adjustments to be made.
