<br />.2 <br /> <br />TUESDAY <br /> <br />JANUARY 10, 1984 <br /> <br />- <br /> <br />Squad, requested that funds in the amount of $2,677.00 to be received (in January, 1984) <br /> <br />by the City from and through the Division of Emergency Medical Services of the State <br /> <br />Health Department, derived pursuant to Section 46.1-149(12) of the CODE OF VIRGINIA (1950, <br /> <br />and as amended), be appropriated to the Rescue Squad and be in addition to the City's <br /> <br />current appropriation of $5,346.00 for 1983-84. Council tentatively approved said request, <br /> <br />subject to and pending a duly-advertised public hearing required inasmuch as the granting <br /> <br />of said request constitutes an amendment to the City's 1983-84 budget. <br /> <br />- <br /> <br />By letter dated January 6, 1984, and in person, City Commonwealth's Attorney J. Randolph <br /> <br />Smith, Jr., requested that Council support proposed legislation (to be sponsored in the <br /> <br />1984 General Assembly by Senator Virgil H. Goode, Jr.) to amend the CODE OF VIRGINIA <br /> <br />(1950, and as amended) to the extent that, effective January 1, 1985, the office of the <br /> <br />City's Commonwealth's Attorney will be given "full-time" status. In support of his re- <br /> <br />quest, Mr. Smith noted that the case load of his office is on the increase and now requires <br /> <br />essentially his full-time attention as well as that of the Assistant Commonwealth's <br /> <br />Attorney; furthermore, Mr. Smith noted, conversion of his office to "full-time" status will <br /> <br />result in a minimal increase in the City's cost. Council, in agreeing to Mr. Smith's re- <br /> <br />quest, indicated that it will support the proposed legislation. <br /> <br />Messrs. Tom E. Crush and Maynard K. Jones, Jr., of Wiley & Wilson, Consulting Engineers to <br /> <br />the City for the proposed improvement-expansion of the City's wastewater (sewage) treat- <br /> <br />ment plant, appeared before Council and presented capacity-and-cost data (see pages 244, <br /> <br />245, and 246 of these minutes) supplementing Wiley & Wilson's presentation to Council on <br /> <br />November 15, 1983, and the presentation by the Henry County Public Service Authority's <br /> <br />consulting engineer at a joint meeting of the Council, the Henry County Board of Supervisors, <br /> <br />and the Public Service Authority on December 19, 1983, regarding ways by which the City- <br /> <br />County area's projected sewage treatment needs can be met for the next fifteen-to-twenty <br />
