Town of Scottsville, Virginia
Food for Thought: Building Stable Town Revenue
For Council Discussion Only — No Action Requested Tonight
Tonight is not about voting on a new tax. It is an opportunity for Town Council to begin discussing
how Scottsville can build stable, dependable revenue for the future.
The Town recently had to move money from LGIP reserves to cover approximately $14,000 in
payroll. This is a warning sign: reserves should be available for flooding, emergencies,
equipment failures, and other unexpected needs—not routine operating expenses.
A Future Option to Study
One option Council may wish to study after the November election is a modest Town real-estate
“piggyback” tax.
•
A 5-cent rate would generate $500 annually for every $1 million in taxable assessed
value within Town limits.
•
A 10-cent rate would generate $1,000 annually for every $1 million in taxable assessed
value within Town limits.
•
The exact revenue amount depends on the certified taxable real-estate value in the
Albemarle and Fluvanna portions of Town.
For illustration only:
Assessed home value
Annual town tax at 5¢
Annual town tax at 10¢
$200,000
$100
$200
$250,000
$125
$250
$300,000
$150
$300
$400,000
$200
$400
Any town real-estate tax would be in addition to the applicable county real-estate tax, not a
replacement for it.

Materials Town Administrators Report
Council to confirm Town Administrator controls staff scheduling and maintenance priorities
The Town Council will review the status of a lapsed Certificate of Appropriateness for the former bus station property, which requires a new application. Administration requests Council confirm that the Town Administrator, not individual members, handles employee supervision and leave. Council is also asked to reaffirm the four-business-day deadline for submitting agenda items and to adopt a consolidated process for prioritizing maintenance and capital projects based on scope, time, and cost.
- Redevelopment of the former bus station property requires a new Certificate of Appropriateness because the 2023 approval expired.
- Administration requests Council confirm that the Town Administrator manages employee supervision, scheduling, and leave under Charter § 5.12.
- Administration requests Council reaffirm the standing four-business-day deadline for submitting agenda items.
- Administration requests Council confirm that maintenance and capital project priorities are set collectively using a consolidated list.
- Administration requests Council confirm that proposing members must provide scope, time, and cost information for new project requests.

Town Administrator/Treasurer Report
This report highlights recent zoning, personnel, and administrative matters for
Council's information and, where noted, requests direction or policy guidance from
Town Council as a body.
Town Council Regular Business Meeting – August 24, 2026
1. Zoning – Redevelopment of the Former Bus Station Property
A local business owner has approached administration about redeveloping the
former bus station property. This is the same project the Architectural Review Board
(ARB) approved in 2023; the owner did not pursue it further at that time and is now
revisiting it. He has asked whether the project must go back before the ARB, the
Planning Commission, and Town Council, or whether the 2023 approval remains
valid.
Administration researched this question under the Town's Zoning Ordinance (Articles
18, 20, and 23) and the Town Charter. Zoning Ordinance § 18.6.7 provides that a
Certificate of Appropriateness (COA) issued by the ARB expires of its own limitation
twelve months from the date of issuance if the work it authorizes has not
commenced within that period. Neither Article 18 nor Article 23 provides any
mechanism to extend, renew, or waive that expiration. Article 20's separate bonding-
extension and general-abandonment provisions do not apply to Certificates of
Appropriateness and would not help here in any event. The Town Charter does not
address the ARB or Certificates of Appropriateness at all; it establishes the Tow …

Office of the Town Administrator / Treasurer
MEMORANDUM
Date: August 24, 2026
From: Elizabeth Abe, Town Administrator / Treasurer
Re: Itinerant Merchant Licensing and Food and Beverage Tax — Fridays on the
Canal Vendors
1. Itinerant Merchant License
Any vendor without a definite place of business in the Town must hold its own Town
license before selling here. Town Code § 26-20 defines an “itinerant merchant”:
“…any person who carries from place to place any goods or services for retail sale,
or who offers goods or services for retail sale at a specific place that is temporary in
nature.”
§ 26-21(a)(1)(c) requires a license for such a person; § 26-21(b) requires the application
before beginning business; § 26-21(c) requires the fee paid with the application. § 26-26
makes the license a personal privilege, and § 26-27 requires a separate license per
business — one vendor's license or payment cannot cover another. License
periods are one week, one month, or one year; the state cap is $500/year (Va. Code §
58.1-3717).
Status: The Barn At 678 LLC, and El Taco Loco have no valid Town license on file. An
itinerant merchant form was filed in April under the Scottsville Chamber of Commerce's
own name and FEIN — that does not satisfy any vendor's own obligation, since the
license must be issued to the entity actually conducting the business.
This was discussed directly with James Walker, Whitney Wade (Town Clerk), and the
Mayor. The To …

Town Administrator/Treasurer Report
This report highlights several recent operational, facility, and event-management issues
that require direction and policy guidance from Town Council as a body.
Town Council Work Session – July 13, 2026
1. External contacts on Town projects – July 4 hydration station
For the July 4 event, a resident volunteer directly contacted UVA and Albemarle County
about providing a hydration station, without any prior knowledge or approval from the
Scottsville Volunteer Fire Department, Police Department, Mayor, Town Administrator, or
Town Council.
The first time Town administration became aware of the arrangement was late in the
week, after the outreach had already occurred, with only two Town employees available
on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday and the office closed on Friday.
After learning of the offer, administration agreed to accept the hydration station and
tested the faucet at the Farmers Market, only to discover that it did not function properly.
The Police Chief then offered to bring a hose from home so that the station could be
connected. Town maintenance staff ultimately set up the hydration station next to
Dorrier Park.
Before this, the head of Albemarle County emergency management came to Town Hall
and asked who the requesting resident was and how he was involved with the Town,
and sought confirmation that the Town actually wanted to use the equipment. This
highlighted the confusion created when a private in …

Town Council Meet July 2026
Significant Calls for Service:
• SVPD responded to one of our businesses for a larceny and found
that an employee had embezzled almost $15,000 in bank deposits
from the business. SVPD is working with their Loss Prevention to
obtain store video and bank records. Evidence has been received
and the suspect has been charged with felony embezzlement.
• SVPD obtained four felony warrants on two suspects that had
stolen the Kubota tractor and flatbed trailer from Endfield Farm.
This case is now pending trail.
• SVPD assisted ACPD Criminal Investigations with a search
warrant service in a child pornography case on James River Road.
• SVPD assisted ACPD with reported burglary in the 600 blk. of
James River Rd. No suspect(s) found on scene. Investigation
turned over to ACPD for follow-up.
• SVPD responded to one of businesses for a report of three

the lot. It appears that one of our officers ran the suspect(s) off
while doing an extra patrol on the lot as we found the jack and
tool bag left under a vehicle.

mange in the Town. SVPD has talked with the Game Department

Request for Support and Approval of Weather
Camera and Weather Station Project
Dear Mayor and Members of the Town Council,
| would like to provide an update on a weather monitoring project that | believe wilt be a
valuable asset to the Town of Scottsville and respectfully request the Town’s consideration
and approval for the proposed installation location.
Several weeks ago, | submitted a proposal to the Albemarle County Office of Emergency
Management requesting assistance with the purchase of a public weather camera for
Scottsville. | am pleased to report that | recently received approval, and Albemarle Cou nty
Office of Emergency Management has agreed to fund the full cost of the weather camera.
Scottsville Task Force 17 has committed to covering the cost of the accompanying weather
station.
The proposed system would provide real-time weather observations and visual monitoring
capabilities for the Town of Scottsville. The weather camera and weather station would
support emergency preparedness efforts, provide valuable information during severe
weather events, and assist organizations such as the National Weather Service, CBS 19
News, and 29News by providing local weather observations from within the
town. Scottsville is uniquely positioned near the boundaries of three National Weather
Service forecast offices. While weather radar is a critical forecasting tool, radar beams
