A. 22-3384 Acceptance of the Regular Meeting Minutes and Conference Session Minutes of
September 12, 2022
Minutes of the Regular Council Meeting Minutes and Conference Session Minutes of
September 12, 2022 were approved as presented
3. Receipt of petitions and communications from the Public that are not on the Agenda.
(Limited to 3 minutes per issue and no formal action can be taken this evening)
Mayor Colbert called for comments from the public.
Inga Erickson, 105 Dogwood St., SW has been a licensed massage therapist for over
thirty years. She has resided in Vienna for twenty years and owned her business for
fifteen years. She is compliant with all standards and ethics set forth by the
Commonwealth of Virginia, Board certified and she complies with all annual
requirements set forth by her profession. Ms. Erickson stated that she reached out to
several Council Members regarding the recently passed amendment to Chapter 22 of
the Vienna Town Code. Council Member Brill recommended she come before
Council. The newly enacted fees structure of $500 per business plus $150 per
therapist represents an increase 18 times what she has paid in the past. She is angry,
frustrated and outraged. The Town made this decision without consultation with
any business owners, who only became aware after the Ordinance was approved
and received a package by mail. Where was this communication when these
regulatory changes were under discussion? Why were those effected not asked to
come to the table? Significant changes have been approved including grouping
licensed therapists with masseuse and masseurs rather than hospitals and clinics.
As a therapist, her work is regulated by the Commonwealth, the American Massage
Therapy Association, the National Certification Board, and various others and she is
required to carry malpractice insurance. In all these ways a licensed therapists
work is more in line with physical therapy, mental health fields, chiropractic and
Town of Vienna Page 1 Printed on 10/11/2022
Town Council Meeting Meeting Minutes September 26, 2022
osteopathic care givers. Ms. Erickson receives referrals from professionals in these
fields. Her field is health care. She is outraged at the increase in business fees. The
$500 fee is unlikely to deter those engaged in criminal activity; it simply punishes
those who have done nothing wrong. It is an affront and an insult. There are
already laws that, when enforced, successfully deter unethical practices. Council
Member Brill conceded that perhaps the fee was too high; maybe $100 would be
more appropriate. Is Council raising fees for other health care workers? Raising the
fee on this one sector unfairly affects small business owners. It is punitive to those
who follow the code of ethics that mandate the profession. There are bad apples in
many of these fields, but regulations must be designed that don’t punish the good
people. “I urge you to reconsider the amendment to Chapter 22 by regrouping
licensed massage therapists with other health care professionals and return the fee
structure to its former rate”.
4. Reports/Presentations
A. 22-3345 Honoring and Recognizing Business Employees
Mayor Colbert called on Jennifer Morrow, Chairman, Town Business Liaison
Committee to present the inaugural Outstanding Service Awards to Ann Dunning,
with Mitchell Eye Institute and Nancy Nichols with Fosters Grill.
B. 22-3362 Presentation of GFOA’s Distinguished Budget Award
Mayor Colbert recognized Marion Serfass, Director, Finance and Staff for the 28th
consecutive receipt of the GFOA Distinguished Budget Award.
A. Report and Inquiries of Council Members
Council Member Patel congratulated the Police Department on their 75th
anniversary. She also noted the validity of comments brought forth by Inga Erickson
regarding Chapter 22 Amendments, suggesting that Council may need to revisit this
decision. She also congratulated the Outstanding Service Award recipients.
Council Member Springsteen thanked the Police for their 75 years of service to the
Vienna community. He also thanked the Department of Public Works for completion
of the sidewalks along Blackstone.
Council Member Anderson noted that he heard the comments made by Ms. Erickson
and agrees that perhaps the Ordinance should be revisited.
Council Member Potter thanked Director Levy and the Department of Planning and
Zoning for expediting the cleanup at 444 Maple Avenue.
Council Member Brill remarked on the success of the 75th anniversary celebration of
the Police Department. He urged the community to reach out to any seniors who
may be struggling due to the rise in inflation and recognized the bravery of the
Ukrainians as they continue to fight for their freedom. He agreed with other
Council Members that the newly enacted fee imposed through Chapter 22 may be too
high. Finally, he congratulated the recipients of the Outstanding Service Award.
Council Member Somers noted that this is a week of atonement in the Jewish faith
and wished all a Happy New Year. In that spirit he offered an apology to anyone
who he may have offended or harmed in any way over the past year. In his role as
Mayor Pro Tem, he attended the opening of the new Hope United Methodist Church,
Town of Vienna Page 2 Printed on 10/11/2022
Town Council Meeting Meeting Minutes September 26, 2022
noting that their decision to locate in Vienna was based in part on the fact that they
believe Vienna to be a welcoming community.
B. Report of the Town Manager
Town Manager Payton noted that due to work on the elevator system, Council
meetings through the end of 2022 will be relocated. Christine Horner, Interim
Director, Public Works, stated that as of October 11, 2022, the elevator will be under
repair. The three impacted Town Council meetings will be moved to the Community
Center auditorium. Public notification will be made tomorrow.
Council Member Somers commended Town Manager Payton and Mayor Colbert for
the smooth transition of the meetings to alternate locations, noting the importance
of accessibility to all.
C. Report of the Mayor
Mayor Colbert indicated that the Town Hall doors have been equipped with push
button controls. She was sorry to have missed the celebration for the Police
Department on Saturday. Oktoberfest will be celebrated October 1, 2022 on Church
St. Mayor Colbert stated that she would be unable to attend Oktoberfest because she
will be at h VML's Mayor's Conference on Saturday and will be joined on Sunday by
the remainder of Council to attend the Annual Conference of all Municipalities in
Virginia. Council Member Brill reminded all of the Madison High School
homecoming parade on Friday September 30, 2022.

5. Public Hearings
A. 22-3364 Public Hearing for Supplemental Adjustment to the 2022-23 General Fund Budget
Mayor Colbert called the Public Hearing to order at 8:38 PM. All Council were
present.
Mayor Colbert called on Marion Serfass, Director, Finance to present the Item for
consideration.
The total supplemental budget appropriation in this Item exceeds 1% of the Town's
2022-23 General Fund budget so a public hearing is required per the Code of
Virginia, section 15-2-2507. This budget adjustment came about for two reasons:
1. Purchase Order Roll Forwards - purchase orders opened and expected to be
completed in FY 2021-22. Due to extraordinary supply chain issues and staff
shortages resulting from the COVD-19 pandemic, this list of items includes many of
the vehicles ordered under the Vehicle Replacement Plan (VRP) and funds budgeted
for asphalt paving and sidewalk construction that could not be completed in the
last fiscal year.2. Budgeted Carry Forwards - these are items identified by
department heads that have come up since the 2022-23 budget was adopted and are
necessary for the departments to complete their objectives in the current fiscal year.
These are items that may have been on what was formerly known as the unfunded
priorities list that were budgeted needs or are items that have come up in between
the adoption of the budget and current conditions today.
Carry forward money is available because the Town had a surplus in FY 2021-22 of
approximately $720,000. The surplus is due to a combination of several General
Fund revenues exceeding budget plus salary savings due to position vacancies
during the year.
Town Manager Payton noted that, as is the Town's practice, half of the fiscal year
surplus is put into the Unreserved Fund Balance (Rainy Day Fund) up to an amount
that represents at least 18% of the subsequent year's budget (Rainy Day percent).
The remainder has been earmarked for Carry Forward items.
Mayor Colbert opened the floor to Council for preliminary questions.
Council Member Springsteen indicated that he was unable to support adding
positions at this time. It represents a prime example of “mission creep”.
Director Serfass replied that the Finance department currently does not have the
bandwidth to implement and enforce requirements of the recently adopted Chapter
22 Ordinance.
Christine Horner, Interim Director, Public Works, explained that the additional
Town of Vienna Page 4 Printed on 10/11/2022
Town Council Meeting Meeting Minutes September 26, 2022
Town owned building square footage (100,000 sq. ft. – 150,000 sq. ft.), the increased
Police Station square footage and the Annex have created a need for more personnel
to maintain these spaces.
Director Serfass, responding to a question by Council Member Somers, noted that
the Rainy Day Fund currently holds approximately $5.6M, which is 18% of the
Town’s $30M budget. Best Practices states two months’ worth of spending in reserve
(equal to 17% for the Town). If all requested items are funded the reserve would
remain at 18%. The Town also carries $500,000 in a Revenue Stabilization Fund set
aside for unseen economic conditions that may impact the budget. This fund was
established based upon a recommendation from the Bond Rating Agency.
Council Member Brill requested information on what steps have been taken with
T-Mobile to upgrade their service. Tony Mull, Director, IT indicated that signal
issue problems were identified at the property yard. WYFY boost and additional
antennas have not improved the situation. The intent is to test all carriers to
determine who provides the best coverage. Council Member Brill urged following
through with these test before making any changes.
Council Member Brill also questioned Director Horner regarding her request for
additional personnel, questioning whether exit interviews were conducted with
former employees. Director Horner responded that exit interviews were conducted
and that a review of the past five years suggested the primary reason for
maintenance worker departure was salary. Other reasons for leaving included a)
multi job expectations due to the relatively smaller size of the Town, and b) new
Federal requirements for obtaining a commercial license (four-five week training
school at a cost of $5000). Of the 44 new hires in the Town about half left over the
last five years moving to positions with nearby jurisdictions. Human Resources
Director Michelle Crabtree pointed out that the City of Falls Church raised
maintenance worker compensation to $52,000, the plan is to bring in new hires at
$55,000 then raise current workers up to match.
Mayor Colbert remarked that worker shortages are currently a problem throughout
the region.
Council Member Potter concurred by emphasizing that the lack of CDL drivers is a
nationwide problem reflecting a shortage in the six digits. The warehousing side
has gone up because so many people have left the service market for better paying
jobs with fixed hours and more benefits. Director Horner remarked that the Town
currently employs a total of 31 drivers. Most hold a Class B license; however, a
Class A license is required for any driver expected to tow over 26,000 lbs.
In response to questions by Council Member Anderson Director Serfass noted that
the General Fund is accounted for on a modified accrual basis, which means it’s
“like cash”. Expenses are recognized when the item is delivered; when vehicles, etc.
are delivered in 2023 or later, payment will be made, until then a balance is reserved
in the Rainy Day Fund for these purchases. So even though it is not expensed, it is
taken out of the Rainy Day Fund and held in reserve.
Council Member Anderson further clarified that if in the prior year a purchase order
was issued but the item not delivered, that money was never spent. Technically that
means expenses are being shifted from the prior fiscal year, which also means there
is a corresponding savings from the prior fiscal year. It won’t show up in surplus
because it is in reserve (not showing in the 18%). Director Serfass agreed and
Town of Vienna Page 5 Printed on 10/11/2022
Town Council Meeting Meeting Minutes September 26, 2022
emphasized that the current situation is extreme.
Council Member Patel pointed out that since it was suggested earlier in the meeting
that the recently passed Ordinance under Chapter 22 should be reviewed, it would
be premature to fund the request for an additional position. She further noted that
asking for an additional $60,000 for BPOL enforcement is like spending money to
lose money. If enforcement covered expenses, it would make sense. Director Serfass
replied that once Chapter 22 is revisited and rewritten, then this request can be
considered. This is uncaptured business license revenue. In the past, every five years
or so the Town has hired temporary staff to assist with enforcement at an estimated
$100,000 salary. The new hire would be tasked with designing the forms, creating
and sending notification, conducting follow-up, education of new requirements, etc.
as well as capturing delinquent business licenses.
Council Member Brill noted that about 1.5 years ago he drove around Vienna and
identified over 40 massage parlors. Six months ago he identified 32. With a decrease
in facilities he is unable to approve of an additional position tonight without data
to justify it. Director Serfass replied that as the new ordinance was written it would
be onerous to enforce. Mayor Colbert reminded Council that need for an additional
FTE to assist with enforcement was mentioned as part of the Ordinance discussion.
A motion was made to close the public hearing.
Motion, Council Member Somers; second, Council Member Anderson
Mayor Colbert opened the floor for additional discussion. Council comments are
summarized as follows:
• Concern with request for additional staff positions; remind Council there are
currently only five staff to complete all Town maintenance;
• Urge Council to consider the added expectations placed on staff maintenance
with acquisition of property and passage of new ordinance; Council decisions often
have a fiscal impact;
• Consider different process for funding additional staff positions; should be
addressed during budget process;
• Alternatively, presenting all budget requests together (additional FTE’s and
projects) allows for full overview;
• All unfilled positions should be filled prior to consideration of additional staff
positions;
• Consider that corrective maintenance is three times costlier than preventative
maintenance; lack of manpower to complete basic operations shortchanges the
Town;
• Budget adopted annually; policy adopted throughout year that effects the
budget; economic conditions change throughout the year that impact the budget;
must be flexible;
• Recommend that any changes in items presented for funding should be
discussed in a public forum.
It was moved to adopt the $1,267,500 amendment to the FY 2022-23 General Fund
budget as presented.
Motion, Council; Member Somers; second, Council Member Patel.
Mayor Colbert requested additional justification from Directors identifying
tradeoffs, etc.
An amendment was offered by Council Member Patel to adjust the request from
Town of Vienna Page 6 Printed on 10/11/2022
Town Council Meeting Meeting Minutes September 26, 2022
$1,267,500 to $1,127,500, removing the budgeted items Building Maintenance MW1
and Temporary Staff Finance/DPZ/Economic Development.
Motion, Council Member Patel; second, Council Member Anderson.
Town Manager Payton noted that those dollars not expended will be moved to the
Rainy Day Fund. Town Attorney Briglia confirmed that if Council is not amending
the budget to add line items, that money remains in the Town’s General Fund with
no authority to spend.
A Scribner’s correction was offered in the form of an amendment by Council Member
Patel to correct her earlier amendment as follows: to adjust the request from
$1,267,500 to $1,145,000, removing the budgeted items Building Maintenance MW1
and Temporary Staff Finance/DPZ/Economic Development.
Additional comments included the following:
• Suggest taking up discussion of additional FTE requests in a Conference
Session;
• Extrapolating FTE’s requested to allow for greater discussion;
• Allow Staff latitude to request additional personnel based upon Council
decisions throughout fiscal year.
Mayor Colbert called for a vote on the amendment.
Amendment passed in a 5-2 vote.
Mayor Colbert called for a vote on the amended motion.
Amended motion passed unanimously.
A motion was made by Council Member Somers, seconded by Council Member Anderson,
that the Action Item be approved. The motion carried by the following vote:
Aye: 7- Council Member Anderson, Council Member Brill, Council Member Patel, Council Member
Potter, Council Member Somers, Council Member Springsteen and Mayor Colbert
6. Consent Agenda
Council Member Potter requested a Process Check stating that a consent agenda is
designed to save time and discussion by allowing grouping of Items that are routine,
noncontroversial, recurring, or have previously achieved consensus but still need a
vote. Items 6a and 6c [of the offered Consent Agenda] are not routine nor recurring;
there’s no indication that they’ve been previously discussed with consensus. Town
Manager Payton confirmed that 6a was indeed discussed earlier, but 6c was not. It
was requested that Item 6c be removed from the consent agenda to be discussed
individually. Council Member Potter then requested that moving forward Staff
include the date each Item on a consent agenda reached net consensus. This will
save time by eliminating unnecessary discussion and allow Council to exercise
proper oversite by reviewing details that may have been forgotten. A hand vote
passed this request.
Town Manager Payton stated that moving forward Staff will include the date of
previous discussion on the cover page.
A motion was made to approve Items 6a and 6b of the Consent Agenda.
Motion, Council Member Patel; second, Council Member Anderson.
Motion carried unanimously.

7. Regular Business
A. 22-3357 Consideration of request to modify conditions of approved site plan for White Oak
Tower, located at 301 Maple Ave. W, so as to remove the existing limitation on the
amount of medical office, related to parking.
Mayor Colbert called on Kelley O’Brien, Director, Planning and Zoning to present
the Item for consideration.
Based on the conclusion that parking capacity at 301 Maple Ave. W is no longer the
challenge that it represented at the time of the 2005 approval and in accordance
with the Town Code it was moved to approve the request to increase the percent of
301 Maple Ave. W up to 100%, which should be reevaluated after three years.
Motion, Council Member Patel; second, Council Member Somers.
Town Attorney Briglia clarified that after three years should Council decide to alter
their decision, then the last tenants would be required to vacate.
Council discussion is summarized as follows:
• Allowance up to 100% offers no room for error;
• Parking availability seems adequate;
• Other 100% parking capacity medical buildings exist in Town without parking
issues;
• Building in question built under different parking standards than others
throughout Town and received parking modification; Exception in place because
could not meet parking standards - use limitations imposed;
• Consider that building in question now has greater surrounding geographic
density due to new builds such as Vienna Market;
• Reasonable to consider up to 75% for three years.
Council Member Somers offered an amendment as follows:
Based on the conclusion that parking capacity at 301 Maple Ave. W is no longer the
challenge that it represented at the time of the 2005 approval, it was moved to
approve the request to remove the condition established in 2005 that 301 Maple Ave.
W would have no more than 50% of its space being used for medical offices.
Second, Council Member Patel.
Amendment failed in a 4-3 vote.
Council Member Somers offered a second amendment as follows:
Based on the conclusion that parking capacity at 301 Maple Ave. W is less of a
challenge than it was at the time of the 2005 approval, it was moved to increase the
percentage of 301 Maple Ave. W that may be used for medical office use to 80%,
which should be reevaluated after three years.
Second, Council Member Patel.
Motion carried in a 6-1 vote.
