MEMORANDUM TO THE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL FROM: Daryl Hennessy, City Manager SUBJECT: City Manager’s Report DATE: August 2, 2021 ADMINISTRATION AND OPERATIONS Shentel Communications. Representatives from Shentel have been meeting with city staff to review their right-of-way permit applications and begin planning for the installation of new, 1-gigabyte fiber optic cable and internet lines throughout the city. In 2020, Shentel signed a new franchise agreement with the city to operate as a new provider in the municipality. Shentel is finalizing agreements with Potomac Edison to install the lines on poles where available. They will install fiber optic lines underground elsewhere in the community where other utilities are already buried. The city expects to see advance crews in the community in mid-August to prep for the field work. Contractors are expected to be in the field to begin installing the lines in late August/early September. At present, Shentel is estimating it will finish its work in the community by January 2022. COMMUNITY AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT 114 W. Liberty Street Sale. The sale of the old police department building on Liberty Street is nearly complete. A new survey has been completed, which reflects the lot line changes needed to accommodate the buyer without adversely affecting the adjacent municipal parking lot. The closing has been set for August 4, 2021. The buyer has proposed to convert the property to a new delicatessen. PUBLIC SERVICE/MAINTENANCE AND UTILITIES WV-51 Feasibility Study. Representatives from HEPMPO, Carpenter Marty, and I visited Charleston on July 28, 2021 to meet with Secretary White, Deputy Commissioner Wriston, and other members of the Department of Transportation (DOT) staff. The purpose of the meeting was to review the WV-51 feasibility study that was completed in May 2021 and encourage DOT to advance the project to the next stage of environmental review. I confirmed that the community has not coalesced around a preferred option for improving traffic flow and safety through the Martin Luther King Boulevard and Summit Point Road corridors but did express the importance of making safety and traffic improvements in the area. DOT has agreed to advance the project to the environmental stage of review and consider an additional option for traffic that includes stubbing off MLK Boulevard at the railroad tracks and routing all traffic through a connector street to W. Washington Street.

Charles Town Utility Board. The CTUB Directors met on July 28, 2021 for a regular meeting that included updates from Gwin, Dobson, and Foreman Engineers (GD&F) on various projects, including a high-level analysis of the options for serving customers of Shenandoah Junction Public Sewer (SJPS). The WV Public Service Commission (PSC) has determined that SJPS is a distressed utility that cannot continue to operate in its current capacity. Moreover, the SJPS is still under a WV Department of Environmental Protection Consent Order that will require substantial wastewater plant upgrades that it may not be able to afford. The PSC has advised CTUB to work with SJPS to determine a path forward. Absent a mutual agreement, the PSC could direct CTUB to take over this distressed utility. Attached is a report from GD&F on the physical condition of SJPS. If the city were required to assume the assets of the utility, it is estimated to cost approximately $1.4 million to connect the SJPS customers to the CTUB system. There is another $400,000 in costs that should be borne by the current owner to decommission the plant. The cost to connect these customers to the CTUB system is not something that the existing 187 customers on the SJPS system could afford. Funding the improvements could have an impact on CTUB customer rates. Adding the SJPS as a CTUB resale customer is much more affordable at an estimated $30,000, but that action alone is not likely to satisfy the PSC. I will provide more details on this developing situation as they are known. Attachment

Mayor and Charles Town City Council

101 E Washington Street

Charles Town WV 25414

Dear Mayor and Charles Town City Council:

I write seeking an appointment to the recently vacated Ward 2 Council seat for the Charles Town City Council.

I moved to Charles Town in February of 2011, in the neighborhood of Huntfield. I moved here looking for a

simpler life where my focus could be on my faith, my family and my community that the hustle and bustle of

a larger metropolitan area just didn’t afford. I wanted to be a part of a true community and in moving here, I

finally found that. Charles Town is a true “hometown”, with so many wonderfu l and diverse people of all

walks of life. Finally, a home where we work side by side in true community fashion. Once here I knew I

needed to get involved to help my now “Hometown”.

I have volunteered in several ways over these past 10 plus years, from the Cold Weather shelter to being on

Boards and committees. Recently I was on CTUB as a Board Member and Treasurer before joining the Council

in June of 2020 and currently serve as President of the Old Opera House Theater Company here in Charles

Town. In all of this I found a calling to help even further by working to get on the Council. The opportunity

presented itself in May of 2020 when there was another vacant seat to be appointed, I applied, and was

humbled by the vote of the Council at that time appointing me to this seat.

In this past year since being on the Council I have had the pleasure of serving in several ways for the City by

working on the Ordinance Committee, Charter Review Committee and the Personal Committee. We as a

Council have accomplished a lot this past year moving forward in many areas in helping Charles Town, but

there is so much more to get done!

I unfortunately lost my bid for re-election to my seat, but with the encouragement of the 45% of the voters

who did support me in this election and a strong desire to continue the great work that the Mayor and

Council had started and look to begin work on during the next few years, I decided to seek this open seat. I

hope that you will consider my application.

If considered, I look forward to working alongside the rest of you, improving on the great work already done

and to get even more accomplished. Having worked very hard on updating our Charter, I would like to

continue to work on this through to completion, also to review, update and as needed removing or adding to

our city ordinances to improve the life of our citizens, and continued work on our Finances to get the much -

needed infrastructure improvements so that all of Charles Town can be connected to our historic downtown

CHARLES TOWN POLICE DEPARTMENT

OFFICE OF THE CHIEF

Date: July 20, 2021

From: Christopher A. Kutcher, Chief of Police

To: Robert Trainor, Mayor

City Council

Daryl Hennessy, City Manager

Re: Amendments to Rules and Regulations of the Police Civil Service Commission

All,

The Police Civil Service Commission of the City of Charles Town (the “PCSC”) is pleased to submit the

enclosed amended Rules and Regulations of the PCSC, in both redline and clean versions, for

consideration and approval by both the City’s Mayor and City Council.

The Commission prescribed the enclosed amended Rules and Regulations by vote on July 20, 2021. The

effect of the amendments is to:

(i) Revise Section 4.03, and related provisions, to provide the PCSC flexibility in certifying

names of eligible applicants for original appointment. Said revisions are made as a result of

recent revisions to WV Code Section 8-14-15;

(ii) Revise various provisions to provide the PCSC greater flexibility in conducting the

hiring process, including the provision of notice of openings, the preparation and/or procurement

of tests, the grading of tests, and the scaling of test scores.

(iii) Revise Sections 6.04 and 6.05 pertaining to promotions to simplify those sections and

make them more consistent with provisions pertaining to original appointment;

(iv) Add a new Section 10.02(b)(1) to provide the PCSC flexibility to reduce the average

minimum score required on competitive written examinations when circumstances require; and

(v) Make various minor and technical corrections and clarifications.

In order for the amended Rules and Regulations to become effective, they must be approved both by the

Mayor and by City Council; provided that, if the Mayor and City Council take no action on the amended

Rules and Regulations within twenty (20) days following submission, the amended Rules and

Regulations become effective as if approved. While the amended Rules and Regulations would be

equally effective by such inaction as if affirmatively approved by the Mayor and City Council, the

Commission hereby respectfully requests that the Mayor and City Council affirmatively approve the

amended Rules and Regulations so as to demonstrate to the City’s citizens and members of the Police

Department that the amended Rules and Regulations have the backing of the Mayor and City Council.

The Commission thanks you for your consideration.
