other locations that the cards are being displayed. She also mentioned two upcoming art shows that will

available on Thursdays at various locations. Special Events and Concerts are also mentioned under the music portion of the card.
PUBLIC HEARINGS
SUP 18-4 – 335 N. Hawksbill Street
Town Manager, Steve Burke, presented information on the request for a special use permit from Steward
and Judy Yowell for a Lodging House at 335 North Hawksbill Street. The property is zoned R-3 with
adjacent property similarly zoned. Properties directly across the street are zoned B-1 and M-1. The
Planning Commission has approved the request and staff recommends consideration. Staff also
recommends the five conditions that are listed in the staff report. Councilman Vickers asked if any
comments had been received from neighbors. Mr Burke said that no comments from the public have
been received. Councilman Dofflemyer asked about the Planning Commission’s vote. Mr. Burke said
he believed the vote from the Commission was unanimous. Councilwoman Pence expressed concerns
about the parking available. She felt that there was not enough parking spaces and that the conditions
placed on the special use permit were not conditions that could be met or enforced. Mr. Burke said that placing some conditions on the use provides the town some enforcement action.
Mayor Presgraves opened the public hearing for citizen comment. With no one present to speak on the issue, the hearing was closed.
Councilwoman Pence questioned the number of bedrooms at the property and the parking expectations.
Ms. Pence said that the Council should not knowingly make the condition of parking that cannot be met.
Mr. Burke said that likely there would be adequate parking as there can be no more than six guests which
would consist of one to two cars at most. Mayor Presgraves confirmed that if the property is sold that the Special Use Permit conveys with the property.

DEPARTMENTS, TOWN BOARDS AND COMMISSIONS
Luray Downtown Initiative
Ms. Meredith Dees advised members that she is back from maternity leave and in the LDI office regularly.
She said that LDI is awaiting the prototype of the downtown banners and hopes to have the sample soon
to show Council members. Ms. Dees also thanked Council members for their consideration during the
approval of the FY2019 budget. Councilman Vickers said that in keeping with the downtown banners,
he would like to see a Luray High School banner on Main Street at the intersection of Leaksville Road.
Mr. Vickers said that he got the idea from the Town of New Market banners that show their school spirit
alongside the downtown banner. Ms. Dees said that she was uncertain of the cost of a single order and would certainly look into this and into the design concept.
ACTION & DISCUSSION ITEMS
FY 2018-2019 Rates & Fees
Mr. Burke asked for Council’s consideration of the FY2018-2019 Rates and Fees Schedule. He noted
that the utility rates were adopted as a part of the budget process. Mr. Burke said that the only change
will be under the rates for Parks and Recreation and include a $100 refundable deposit for larger groups
requesting shelter reservations. He said that this change is due to lengthy clean up after shelter rentals,
excess garbage, moved tables, and additional staff time on the weekends. Councilman Vickers asked if
this charge would be at the discretion of the Town Manager. Mr. Burke said that scout groups and others
would not be charged; he noted that mainly the issue is with large events such as weddings. Councilman
Dofflemyer suggested that the deposit fee be collected at the time the shelter fee is charged. Councilman
Dofflemyer asked if there would be an exception for Town residents. Councilman Schiro suggested
leaving it at the discretion of the Town Manager. Councilman Lancaster agreed that other groups charge
a deposit for the use of their facilities and that the deposit usually ensures a good clean up, but sometimes
the deposit won’t be reimbursed if the cleanup isn’t satisfactory.
Motion: Councilman Schiro motioned to approve the FY 2018-2019 Rates and Fees Schedule as
presented with the provisions as discussed, motion seconded by Councilman Dofflemyer with the vote
as follows: YEA: Council Members Vickers, Dofflemyer, Schiro, Lancaster, Pence. Approved 5-0

Readoption of Portions of the Code of Virginia
Mr. Burke said that Council is requested to consider the adoption of an Ordinance readopting portions of
the Code of Virginia that have been updated for FY 2018-2019. This will allow the Town to enforce
these State statutes and regulations. Mr. Burke noted that this is an annual housekeeping matter to readopt
these portions of the code.
Motion: Councilman Dofflemyer motioned to adopt the Ordinance readopting portions of the Code
of Virginia as presented, motion seconded by Councilman Lancaster with the vote as follows: YEA:
Council Members Vickers, Dofflemyer, Schiro, Lancaster, Pence. Approved 5-0
West Main Street Bridge Update
Assistant Town Manager, Bryan Chrisman, updated Council members on the replacement of the West
Main Street Bridge. He provided Council with two copies of public notices regarding traffic related issues
and the disruption of water service. Mr. Chrisman noted that Tyler Austin, Racey Engineering, has
provided an updated progress report that Council members have been given a copy of. Councilman
Vickers complemented the downtown informational kiosks. Mr. Chrisman said that he along with the
Town Manager, Chief Cook, and Ms. Dees will be looking at traffic detour patterns and routes. They will
be experimenting with GPS detour routes and how these will affect visitors. Council members inquired
about the timeline for demolition. Mr. Chrisman said that demolition is still scheduled for August but
could be earlier. He noted that the crane will arrive into Town and that a pad must first be built in the
stream for the crane to operate from. Members also discussed the plans for a time lapse camera.
OLD BUSINESS
Draft Code Amendments- Itinerant Merchants, Peddlers, & Solicitors
Town Manager, Steve Burke, discussed the draft code amendments pertaining to Itinerant Merchants,
Peddlers, and Solicitors. Mr. Burke said that staff would like approval to advertise these amendments
for public hearing. The changes include the following; Establish Section 30-1 to regulate Commercial
Solicitor hours and practices, Modify 30-36 to specify a business license for each definite location to allow
business with a definite location license to operate as an itinerant merchant, Modify 30-38 to require
currency on Town taxes prior to issuance of a Business License, Modify 30-71 to specify a general $500
Business License tax rate unless specifically stated elsewhere in the Code, Modify 30-96 to establish a
$500 per year Business License tax rate for itinerant merchants, eliminate proration, and establish
exemptions for Itinerant Vendor Business License taxes, Modify 30-97 to establish $250 per year Business
License tax rate for peddlers not selling perishable items and establish exemptions for Peddler Business

taxes and eliminate proration.
Council members discussed the difference between itinerant merchant versus peddler. Mr. Burke
explained that the peddler moves from place to place within the Town, such as to move from door to door.
Councilman Lancaster noted a type correction to be changed from “with the town” to “within the town”.

Councilwoman Pence disagreed with the $250 fee for peddlers. Councilman Lancaster agreed with Ms.
Pence that the fees should be uniform. Council members agreed on the $500 fee for Itinerant Vendors
and Peddlers alike. Chief Cook asked about the provision for existing businesses. Mr. Burke said that is
covered in the amendment changes, and will allow for an existing location to operate as an itinerant
merchant. All members agreed to advertise for the next meeting.

Town Attorney, Jason Botkins, noted that he is making progress on revisions to the Town Charter. He hopes for Council to review this sometime this Summer.

recognized Town Staff for their work during the recent flooding. Councilwoman Pence inquired about the
mowing of the riparian area on the Greenway. Ms. Pence noted that it is nice to have this natural buffer
along the trailside. Mr. Chrisman noted that there is no longer a CREP Program in place and thus no
longer regulations about this area. Mr. Chrisman said that staff prefers to keep this area more manageable.

provide a general obligation bond or a revenue bond for the repayment of the loan. The financing could include legal fees, bond counsel fees, construction costs, etc. Council was provided with several handouts, one of which detailed the engineering estimate for the total sewer improvements of $4.42 million. Ms. Hines explained the loan application process, letter of conditions, construction bid selection, and monthly progress meetings. Another handout detailed the Town’s four existing VRA Loans, annual payments, and savings to be recognized after the refinance. Councilman Schiro asked at what point the interest rate would be locked in. Ms. Hines stated that it would be at the point the letter of conditions is issued and would be before the end of October. She furthered that her agency does operate on an October fiscal year and that the deadline for the application has been extended to mid-July. Ms. Hines noted that this would help the town’s overall debt service. Councilman Schiro noted that this would be extending the loans from 20 years to 40 years. Ms. Hines explained that Council can refinance all, or part, of existing loans and various options can be reviewed by members and staff. Councilman Dofflemyer discussed the town’s existing rate schedule and inquired about the impact on rates for citizens due to the financing requirements. Ms. Hines discussed how the USDA calculates rates and explained the process of “EDU Calculations”. She noted that the Town would need to raise rates incrementally each year. Councilman Vickers asked about the nature of the improvements. Mr. Chrisman said that the improvements would include influent station improvements, septage receipt improvements and metering, wastewater plant needs, collections system upgrades, and trunk line repairs/expansion. Mr. Chrisman explained that overall this would allow the Town room to expand its sewer system and accept additional users. Mr. Chrisman added that East Luray has its share of sewer related challenges and this is a very serious consideration for Council. Ms. Hines stated that the Richmond office has extended the application deadline to July and will need to be submitted by mid-month. She added that this financing availability may not be available again until next Spring upon the agency’s new budget year, if at all. Councilman Sours suggested not refinancing existing zero percent debt and also using an accelerated repayment schedule to shorten the 40 year term. Mayor Presgraves discussed the impact of rising rates on citizens. Council and Town Staff also discussed the issue of septage receival and the lack of metering. Councilman Schiro discussed areas for system growth and the capability of offering sewer service. Council members requested additional figures and scenarios for consideration. Councilman Dofflemyer verified that if the application deadline can be met in July, then the rate could be locked in. Mr. Chrisman said that he would bring back additional information at the July 9th meeting for Council to consider. Board of Zoning Appeals – Term Expirations Town Manager, Steve Burke, said that there are two individuals on the Board of Zoning Appeals whose terms are set to expire.

Council was provided with a copy of the draft code, draft application, and draft permit. Mr. Burke asked that if Council members have any questions or comments that they see staff. Council will re-visit the issue at the July or August meeting.

Social Media Town Manager, Steve Burke, discussed the Town’s use of Social Media and noted that the Town has expanded its social media presence to include Facebook, Instagram, and Linkedin. Mr. Burke is proposing Council consider the adoption of Town Code Section 2-177 regarding Social Media.

The policy and guidelines have been reviewed and changes recommended by Town Attorney Jason Botkins. Councilman Sours inquired about the Town’s current policy on social media citizen comments. Mr. Burke said that currently the policy is wide open. Movie Night Funding Town Manager, Steve Burke, said that the Council is requested to discuss funding in the amount of $500 from the Parks and Recreation line item to assist the Chamber of Commerce in purchasing a new projector for their movie night events. Mr. Burke said that with the financial contribution also comes to ability to utilize the projector and screen for any events that the town may want to conduct.

ANNOUNCEMENTS/ ADJOURN Mr. Burke said that the July 4th Fireworks display is on track and provided a copy of the land use agreement with Motel Inc. Mayor Presgraves reminded everyone of the Employee Picnic on July 3rd.

Also, Mr. Lancaster discussed mowing issues in town and throwing grass into the streets and storm drains. Chief Cook said that he has addressed one issue in particular. Councilman Lancaster would like to see the Page News and Courier do an article on this. He also suggested that Town employees be mindful of grass in the roadways as well. Mr. Lancaster also discussed the Tannery property and the overgrowth issues there. Mr. Burke said that due to the fireworks display on this property the Town will have to mow the entire area in order to mitigate any fire hazards. Councilman Lancaster also discussed various street lights that are out. Chief Cook said that his department will more closely monitor these and that town staff is reporting these to SVEC. Lastly, Councilman Lancaster discussed metering for bulk water and contractors using hydrants. He discussed contractors using the hydrants to fill pools, and suggested a hydrant meter. He also recalled former discussions on placing a drop near the Water Plant so that contractors must pull up and pay for water at that location only. Assistant Town Manager, Bryan Chrisman, said that the Bridge work is on schedule and full street closure should commence between July 9th and 16th. Current work is on the waterline across Hawksbill Creek.

which application shall be stated the residence of the applicant, the nature of the business, trade, profession,
occupation or thing to be done and the place where it is proposed to be conducted.
(b) Where the license tax imposed by this chapter is measured by gross receipts, gross value, sales or purchases,

(Code 1981, § 11-8; Ord. of 5-9-1983)
Sec. 30-71. - Business, professional and occupational licenses.
(a) Overriding conflicting ordinances. Except as may be otherwise provided by the laws of the commonwealth,
and notwithstanding any other current ordinances or resolutions enacted by the town council, whether or not compiled
in this Code, to the extent of any conflict, the following provisions shall be applicable to the levy, assessment, and
collection of licenses required and taxes imposed on businesses, trades, professions and callings and upon the persons,
firms and corporations engaged therein within this locality.
(b) License requirement.
(1) Generally.
a. Every person engaging in this jurisdiction in any business, trade, profession occupation or calling
(collectively hereinafter "a business"), as defined in this section, unless otherwise exempted by law, shall
apply for a license for each such business if:
(1i) Such person maintains a definite place of business in this jurisdiction,
(2ii) Such person does not maintain a definite office anywhere but does maintain an abode in this
jurisdiction, which abode for the purposes of this section shall be deemed a definite place of business, or
(3iii) There is no definite place of business but such person operates amusement machines, is engaged
as a peddler or itinerant merchant, carnival or circus as specified in Code of Virginia, § 58.1-3717, 58.1-
3718, or 58.1-3728, respectively, or is a contractor subject to Code of Virginia, § 58.1-3715, or is a
public service corporation subject to Code of Virginia, § 58.1-3731.
b. Multiple places of business. A separate license shall be required for each definite place of business. A
person engaged in two or more businesses or professions carried on at the same place of business may elect
to obtain one license for all such businesses and professions if all of the following criteria are satisfied:
(1i) Each business or profession is licensable at the location and has satisfied any requirements
imposed by state law or other provisions of the ordinances of this jurisdiction;
(2ii) All of the businesses or professions are subject to the same tax rate, or if subject to different tax
rates, the licensee agrees to be taxed on all businesses and professions at the highest rate; and
(3iii) The taxpayer agrees to supply such information as the assessor may require concerning the nature
of the several businesses and their gross receipts.
(2) Each person subject to a license tax shall apply for a license prior to beginning business if he was not
subject to licensing in this jurisdiction on or before January 1 of the license year or no later than March 1 of the
current license year if he had been issued a license for the preceding license year. The application shall be on
forms prescribed by the assessing official.
(3) The tax shall be paid with the application in the case of any license not based on gross receipts. If, the tax
is measured by the gross receipts of the business, the tax shall be paid on or before March 1 of each year.
(4) The assessing official may grant an extension of time, not to exceed 90 days, in which to file an
application for a license, for reasonable cause. The extension shall be conditioned upon the timely payment of a
reasonable estimate of the appropriate tax, subject to adjustment to the correct tax at the end of the extension
together with interest from the due date until the date paid and, if the estimate submitted with the extension is
![Page 30: LURAY TOWN COUNCIL July 9, 2018 - 7:00 p.m. MEETING …townofluray.com/assets/council-agenda-07-09-2018--bookmarked.pdfJul 09, 2018 · Mr. Burke said that Council is requested to](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050420/5f8f51d4543d5060e7196f37/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
found to be unreasonable under the circumstances, a penalty of ten percent of the portion paid after the due
date.
(5) A penalty of ten percent of the tax may be imposed upon the failure to file an application or the failure to
pay the tax by the appropriate due date. Only the late filing penalty shall be imposed by the assessing official if
both the application and payment are late; however, both penalties may be assessed if the assessing official
determines that the taxpayer has a history of noncompliance. In the case of an assessment of additional tax
made by the assessing official, if the application and, if applicable, the return were made in good faith and the
understatement of the tax was not due to any fraud, reckless or intentional disregard of the law by the taxpayer,
there shall be no late payment penalty assessed with the additional tax. If any assessment of tax by the assessing
official is not paid within 30 days, the treasurer (or other collecting official) may impose a ten percent late
payment penalty. The penalties shall not be imposed, or if imposed, shall be abated by the official who assessed
them, if the failure to file or pay was not the fault of the taxpayer. In order to demonstrate lack of fault, the
taxpayer must show that he acted responsibly and that the failure was due to events beyond his control. "Acted
responsibly" means that:
a. The taxpayer exercised the level of reasonable care that a prudent person would exercise under the
circumstances in determining the filing obligations for the business and
b. The taxpayer undertook significant steps to avoid or mitigate the failure, such as requesting
appropriate extensions (where applicable), attempting to prevent a foreseeable impediment, acting to
remove an impediment once it occurred, and promptly rectifying a failure once the impediment was
removed or the failure discovered.
"Events beyond the taxpayer's control" include, but are not limited to, the unavailability of records due to fire
or other casualty; the unavoidable absence (e.g., due to death or serious illness) of the person with the sole
responsibility for tax compliance; or the taxpayer's reasonable reliance in good faith upon erroneous written
information from the assessing official, who was aware of the relevant facts relating to the taxpayer's business
when he provided the erroneous information.
(6) Interest shall be charged on the late payment of the tax from the due date until the date paid without
regard to fault or other reason for the late payment. Whenever an assessment of additional or omitted tax by the
assessing official is found to be erroneous, all interest and penalty charged and collected on the amount of the
assessment found to be erroneous shall be refunded together with interest on the refund from the date of
payment or the due date, whichever is later. Interest shall be paid on the refund of any tax paid under this
section from the date of payment or due date, whichever is later, whether attributable to an amended return or
other reason. Interest on any refund shall be paid at the same rate charged under Code of Virginia, § 58.1-3916.
No interest shall accrue on an adjustment of estimated tax liability to actual liability at the conclusion of a base
year. No interest shall be paid on a refund or charged on a late payment, in event of such adjustment, provided
the refund or the late payment is made not more than 30 days from (i) the date of the payment that created the
refund or (ii) the due date of the tax, whichever is later.
(c) Situs of gross receipts.
(1) General rule. Whenever the tax imposed by this section is measured by gross receipts, the gross receipts
included in the taxable measure shall be only those gross receipts attributed to the exercise of a licensable
privilege at a definite place of business within this jurisdiction. In the case of activities conducted outside of a
definite place of business, such as during a visit to a customer location, the gross receipts shall be attributed to
the definite place of business from which such activities are initiated, directed, or controlled. The situs of gross
receipts for different classifications of business shall be attributed to one or more definite places of business or
offices as follows:
a. The gross receipts of a contractor shall be attributed to the definite place of business at which his
services are performed, or if his services are not performed at any definite place of business, then the
definite place of business from which his services are directed or controlled, unless the contractor is subject
to the provisions of Code of Virginia, § 58.1-3715.
b. The gross receipts of a retailer or wholesaler shall be attributed to the definite place of business at
which sales solicitation activities occur, or if sales solicitation activities do not occur at any definite place
of business, then the definite place of business from which sales solicitation activities are directed or
controlled; however, a wholesaler or distribution house subject to a license tax measured by purchases shall
determine the situs of its purchases by the definite place of business at which or from which deliveries of
the purchased goods, wares and merchandise are made to customers. Any wholesaler who is subject to
![Page 31: LURAY TOWN COUNCIL July 9, 2018 - 7:00 p.m. MEETING …townofluray.com/assets/council-agenda-07-09-2018--bookmarked.pdfJul 09, 2018 · Mr. Burke said that Council is requested to](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050420/5f8f51d4543d5060e7196f37/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
license tax in two or more localities and who is subject to multiple taxation because the localities use
different measures, may apply to the department of taxation for a determination as to the proper measure of
purchases and gross receipts subject to license tax in each locality.
c. The gross receipts of a business renting tangible personal property shall be attributed to the definite
place of business from which the tangible personal property is rented or, if the property is not rented from
any definite place of business, then the definite place of business at which the rental of such property is
managed.
d. The gross receipts from the performance of services shall be attributed to the definite place of business
at which the services are performed or, if not performed at any definite place of business, then the definite
place of business from which the services are directed or controlled.
(2) Apportionment. If the licensee has more than one definite place of business and it is impractical or
impossible to determine to which definite place of business gross receipts should be attributed under the general
rule (and the affected jurisdictions are unable to reach an apportionment agreement), except as to circumstances
set forth in Code of Virginia, § 58.1-3709, the gross receipts of the business shall be apportioned between the
definite places of businesses on the basis of payroll. Gross receipts shall not be apportioned to a definite place
of business unless some activities under the applicable general rule occurred at, or were controlled from, such
definite place of business. Gross receipts attributable to a definite place of business in another jurisdiction shall
not be attributed to this jurisdiction solely because the other jurisdiction does not impose a tax on the gross
receipts attributable to the definite place of business in such other jurisdiction.
(3) Agreements. The assessor may enter into agreements with any other political subdivision of Virginia
concerning the manner in which gross receipts shall be apportioned among definite places of business.
However, the sum of the gross receipts apportioned by the agreement shall not exceed the total gross receipts
attributable to all of the definite places of business affected by the agreement. Upon being notified by a
taxpayer that its method of attributing gross receipts is fundamentally inconsistent with the method of one or
more political subdivisions in which the taxpayer is licensed to engage in business and that the difference has,
or is likely to, result in taxes on more than 100 percent of its gross receipts from all locations in the affected
jurisdictions, the assessor shall make a good faith effort to reach an apportionment agreement with the other
political subdivisions involved.
(d) Limitations and extensions.
(1) Where, before the expiration of the time prescribed for the assessment of any license tax imposed
pursuant to this section, both the assessing official and the taxpayer have consented in writing to its assessment
after such time, the tax may be assessed at any time prior to the expiration of the period agreed upon. The
period so agreed upon may be extended by subsequent agreements in writing made before the expiration of the
period previously agreed upon.
(2) Notwithstanding Code of Virginia, § 58.1-3903, the assessing official shall assess the local license tax
omitted because of fraud or failure to apply for a license for the current license year and the six preceding
years.
(3) The period for collecting any local license tax shall not expire prior to the period specified in Code of
Virginia, § 58.1-3940, two years after the date of assessment if the period for assessment has been extended
pursuant to this subdivision, two years after the final determination of an appeal for which collection has been
stayed pursuant to the following subsection (e)(2) or (e)(4) of this section, or two years after the final decision
in a court application pursuant to Code of Virginia, § 58.1-3984, or similar law for which collection has been
stayed, whichever is later.
(e) Appeals and rulings.
(1) Any person assessed with a license tax under this section as the result of an audit may apply within 90
days from the date of the assessment to the assessing official for a correction of the assessment. The application
must be filed in good faith and sufficiently identify the taxpayer, audit period, remedy sought, each alleged
error in the assessment, the grounds upon which the taxpayer relies, and any other facts relevant to the
taxpayer's contention. The assessor may hold a conference with the taxpayer if requested by the taxpayer, or
require submission of additional information and documents, further audit, or other evidence deemed necessary
for a proper and equitable determination of the applications. The assessment shall be deemed prima facie
correct. The assessor shall undertake a full review of the taxpayer's claims and issue a determination to the
taxpayer setting forth its position. Every assessment pursuant to an audit shall be accompanied by a written
![Page 32: LURAY TOWN COUNCIL July 9, 2018 - 7:00 p.m. MEETING …townofluray.com/assets/council-agenda-07-09-2018--bookmarked.pdfJul 09, 2018 · Mr. Burke said that Council is requested to](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050420/5f8f51d4543d5060e7196f37/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
explanation of the taxpayer's right to seek correction and the specific procedure to be followed in the
jurisdiction (e.g., the name and address to which an application should be directed).
(2) Provided an application is made within 90 days of an assessment, collection activity shall be suspended
until a final determination is issued by the assessor, unless the assessor determines that collection would be
jeopardized by delay or that the taxpayer has not responded to a request for relevant information after a
reasonable time. Interest shall accrue in accordance with the provisions of subsection (b)(6) of this section, but
no further penalty shall be imposed while collection action is suspended. The term "jeopardized by delay"
includes a finding that the application is frivolous, or that a taxpayer desires:
a. To depart quickly from the locality,
b. To remove his property therefrom,
c. To conceal himself or his property therein, or
d. To do any other act tending to prejudice or to render wholly or partially ineffectual, proceedings to
collect the tax for the period in question.
(3) Any person assessed with a license tax under this section as a result of an audit may apply within 90 days
of the determination by the assessing official on an application pursuant to subsection (e)(1) above to the tax
commissioner for a correction of such assessment. The tax commissioner shall issue a determination to the
taxpayer within 90 days of receipt of the taxpayer's application, unless the taxpayer and the assessing official
are notified that a longer period will be required. The application shall be treated as an application pursuant to
Code of Virginia, § 58.1-1821, and the tax commissioner may issue an order correcting such assessment
pursuant to Code of Virginia, § 58.1-1822. Following such an order, either the taxpayer or the assessing official
may apply to the appropriate circuit court pursuant to Code of Virginia, § 58.1-3984. However, the burden shall
be on the party making the application to show that the ruling of the tax commissioner is erroneous. Neither the
tax commissioner nor the department of taxation shall be made a party to an application to correct an
assessment merely because the tax commissioner has ruled on it.
(4) On receipt of a notice of intent to file an appeal to the tax commissioner under subsection (e)(3) above,
the assessing official shall further suspend collection activity until a final determination is issued by the tax
commissioner, unless the assessor determines that collection would be jeopardized by delay or that the taxpayer
has not responded to a request for relevant information after a reasonable time. Interest shall accrue in
accordance with the provisions of subsection (b)(6), but no further penalty shall be imposed while collection
action is suspended. The term "jeopardized by delay" shall have the same meaning as set forth in subsection
(e)(2) above.
(1) Definitions. For purposes of this section:
"Amount in dispute," when used with respect to taxes due or assessed, means the amount specifically
identified in the administrative appeal or application for judicial review as disputed by the party filing such
appeal or application.
"Appealable event" means an increase in the assessment of a local license tax payable by a taxpayer, the
denial of a refund, or the assessment of a local license tax where none previously was assessed, arising out
of the local assessing official's (i) examination of records, financial statements, books of account, or other
information for the purpose of determining the correctness of an assessment; (ii) determination regarding
the rate or classification applicable to the licensable business; (iii) assessment of a local license tax when no
return has been filed by the taxpayer; or (iv) denial of an application for correction of erroneous assessment
attendant to the filing of an amended application for license.
An appealable event shall include a taxpayer's appeal of the classification applicable to a business, including
whether the business properly falls within a business license subclassification established by the town,
regardless of whether the taxpayer's appeal is in conjunction with an assessment, examination, audit, or any
other action taken by the town.
"Frivolous" means a finding, based on specific facts, that the party asserting the appeal is unlikely to prevail
upon the merits because the appeal is (i) not well grounded in fact; (ii) not warranted by existing law or a
good faith argument for the extension, modification, or reversal of existing law; (iii) interposed for an
improper purpose, such as to harass, to cause unnecessary delay in the payment of tax or a refund, or to
create needless cost from the litigation; or (iv) otherwise frivolous.
"Jeopardized by delay" means a finding, based upon specific facts, that a taxpayer designs to (i) depart
quickly from the town; (ii) remove his property therefrom; (iii) conceal himself or his property therein; or
![Page 33: LURAY TOWN COUNCIL July 9, 2018 - 7:00 p.m. MEETING …townofluray.com/assets/council-agenda-07-09-2018--bookmarked.pdfJul 09, 2018 · Mr. Burke said that Council is requested to](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050420/5f8f51d4543d5060e7196f37/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
(iv) do any other act tending to prejudice, or to render wholly or partially ineffectual, proceedings to collect
the tax for the period in question.
(2) Administrative appeals to town treasurer.
a. Filing and contents of administrative appeal. Any person assessed with a local license tax as a
result of an appealable event as defined in this section may file an administrative appeal of the
assessment within one year from the last day of the tax year for which such assessment is made, or
within one year from the date of the appealable event, whichever is later, with the town treasurer. The
appeal must be filed in good faith and sufficiently identify the taxpayer, the tax periods covered by the
challenged assessments, the amount in dispute, the remedy sought, each alleged error in the assessment,
the grounds upon which the taxpayer relies, and any other facts relevant to the taxpayer's contention.
The town treasurer may hold a conference with the taxpayer if requested by the taxpayer, or require
submission of additional information and documents, an audit or further audit, or other evidence
deemed necessary for a proper and equitable determination of the appeal. The assessment placed at issue
in the appeal shall be deemed prima facie correct. The town treasurer shall undertake a full review of
the taxpayer's claims and issue a written determination to the taxpayer setting forth the facts and
arguments in support of his or her decision.
The taxpayer may at any time also file an administrative appeal of the classification applicable to the
taxpayer's business, including whether the business properly falls within a business license
subclassification established by the town. However, the appeal of the classification of the business shall
not apply to any license year for which the Tax Commissioner has previously issued a final
determination relating to any license fee or license tax imposed upon the taxpayer's business for the
year. In addition, any appeal of the classification of a business shall in no way affect or change any
limitations period prescribed by law for appealing an assessment.
b. Notice of right of appeal and procedures. Every assessment made by the town treasurer pursuant
to an appealable event shall include or be accompanied by a written explanation of the taxpayer's right
to file an administrative appeal and the specific procedures to be followed in the jurisdiction, the name
and address to which the appeal should be directed, an explanation of the required content of the appeal,
and the deadline for filing the appeal.
c. Suspension of collection activity during appeal. Provided a timely and complete administrative
appeal is filed, collection activity with respect to the amount in dispute relating to any assessment by the
town treasurer shall be suspended until a final determination is issued by the town treasurer, unless the
town treasurer determines (i) collection would be jeopardized by delay as defined in this section; (ii) the
taxpayer has not responded to a request for relevant information after a reasonable time; or (iii) the
appeal is frivolous as defined in this section. Interest shall accrue in accordance with Sec. 30-71(b)(6),
but no further penalty shall be imposed while collection action is suspended.
d. Procedure in event of nondecision. Any taxpayer whose administrative appeal to the town
treasurer pursuant to the provisions of subdivision (2) of this subsection has been pending for more than
one year without the issuance of a final determination may, upon not less than 30 days' written notice to
the town treasurer, elect to treat the appeal as denied and appeal the assessment or classification of the
taxpayer's business to the Tax Commissioner in accordance with the provisions of subdivision (3) of this
subsection. The Tax Commissioner shall not consider an appeal filed pursuant to the provisions of this
subsection if he finds that the absence of a final determination on the part of the town treasurer was
caused by the willful failure or refusal of the taxpayer to provide information requested and reasonably
needed by the town treasurer to make a determination.
(3) Administrative appeal to the Tax Commissioner.
a. Any person assessed with a local license tax as a result of a determination or that has received a
determination with regard to the person's appeal of the license classification or subclassification
applicable to the person's business, upon an administrative appeal to the town treasurer pursuant to
subdivision (2) of this subsection, that is adverse to the position asserted by the taxpayer in such appeal
may appeal such assessment or determination to the Tax Commissioner within 90 days of the date of the
determination by the town treasurer. The appeal shall be in such form as the Tax Commissioner may
prescribe and the taxpayer shall serve a copy of the appeal upon the town treasurer. The Tax
Commissioner shall permit the town treasurer to participate in the proceedings, and shall issue a
determination to the taxpayer within 90 days of receipt of the taxpayer's application, unless the taxpayer
![Page 34: LURAY TOWN COUNCIL July 9, 2018 - 7:00 p.m. MEETING …townofluray.com/assets/council-agenda-07-09-2018--bookmarked.pdfJul 09, 2018 · Mr. Burke said that Council is requested to](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050420/5f8f51d4543d5060e7196f37/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
and the assessing official are notified that a longer period will be required. The appeal shall proceed in
the same manner as an application pursuant to Va. Code § 58.1-1821, and the Tax Commissioner
pursuant to § 58.1-1822 may issue an order correcting such assessment or correcting the license
classification or subclassification of the business and the related license tax or fee liability.
b. Suspension of collection activity during appeal. On receipt of a notice of intent to file an appeal
to the Tax Commissioner under subdivision a of this subsection, collection activity with respect to the
amount in dispute relating to any assessment by the town treasurer shall be suspended until a final
determination is issued by the Tax Commissioner, unless the town treasurer determines (i) collection
would be jeopardized by delay as defined in this section; (ii) the taxpayer has not responded to a request
for relevant information after a reasonable time; or (iii) the appeal is frivolous as defined in this section.
Interest shall accrue in accordance with Sec. 30-71(b)(6), but no further penalty shall be imposed while
collection action is suspended. The requirement that collection activity be suspended shall cease unless
an appeal pursuant to subdivision (3)a of this subsection is filed and served on the necessary parties
within 30 days of the service of notice of intent to file such appeal.
c. Implementation of determination of Tax Commissioner. Promptly upon receipt of the final
determination of the Tax Commissioner with respect to an appeal pursuant to subdivision (3)a of this
subsection, the town treasurer shall take those steps necessary to calculate the amount of tax owed by or
refund due to the taxpayer consistent with the Tax Commissioner's determination and shall provide that
information to the taxpayer and to the treasurer in accordance with the provisions of this subdivision.
(i) If the determination of the Tax Commissioner sets forth a specific amount of tax due, the town
treasurer shall issue a bill to the taxpayer for such amount due, together with interest accrued and
penalty, if any is authorized by this section, within 30 days of the date of the determination of the Tax
Commissioner.
(ii) If the determination of the Tax Commissioner sets forth a specific amount of refund due, the
town treasurer shall issue a payment to the taxpayer for such amount due, together with interest
accrued pursuant to this section, within 30 days of the date of the determination of the Tax
Commissioner.
(iii) If the determination of the Tax Commissioner does not set forth a specific amount of tax due, or
otherwise requires the town treasurer to undertake a new or revised assessment that will result in an
obligation to pay a tax that has not previously been paid in full, the town treasurer shall promptly
commence the steps necessary to undertake such new or revised assessment, and provide the same to
the taxpayer within 60 days of the date of the determination of the Tax Commissioner, or within 60
days after receipt from the taxpayer of any additional information requested or reasonably required
under the determination of the Tax Commissioner, whichever is later. The town treasurer shall issue a
bill to the taxpayer for the amount due, together with interest accrued and penalty, if any is authorized
by this section, within 30 days of the date of the new assessment.
(iv) If the determination of the Tax Commissioner does not set forth a specific amount of refund due,
or otherwise requires the town treasurer to undertake a new or revised assessment that will result in an
obligation on the part of the locality to make a refund of taxes previously paid, the town treasurer shall
promptly commence the steps necessary to undertake such new or revised assessment or to determine
the amount of refund due in the case of a correction to the license classification or subclassification of
the business, and provide the same to the taxpayer within 60 days of the date of the determination of
the Tax Commissioner, or within 60 days after receipt from the taxpayer of any additional information
requested or reasonably required under the determination of the Tax Commissioner, whichever is
later. The town treasurer shall issue a refund to the taxpayer for the amount of tax due, together with
interest accrued, within 30 days of the date of the new assessment or determination of the amount of
the refund.
(4) Judicial review of determination of Tax Commissioner.
a. Judicial review. Following the issuance of a final determination of the Tax Commissioner
pursuant to subdivision (3) of this subsection, the taxpayer or town treasurer may apply to the
appropriate circuit court for judicial review of the determination, or any part thereof, pursuant to Va.
Code § 58.1-3984. In any such proceeding for judicial review of a determination of the Tax
Commissioner, the burden shall be on the party challenging the determination of the Tax Commissioner,
or any part thereof, to show that the ruling of the Tax Commissioner is erroneous with respect to the
![Page 35: LURAY TOWN COUNCIL July 9, 2018 - 7:00 p.m. MEETING …townofluray.com/assets/council-agenda-07-09-2018--bookmarked.pdfJul 09, 2018 · Mr. Burke said that Council is requested to](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050420/5f8f51d4543d5060e7196f37/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
part challenged. Neither the Tax Commissioner nor the Department of Taxation shall be made a party to
an application to correct an assessment merely because the Tax Commissioner has ruled on it.
b. Suspension of payment of disputed amount of tax due upon taxpayer's notice of intent to initiate
judicial review.
(i) On receipt of a notice of intent to file an application for judicial review, pursuant to Va. Code
§ 58.1-3984, of a determination of the Tax Commissioner pursuant to subdivision (3) of this
subsection, and upon payment of the amount of the tax relating to any assessment by the town
treasurer that is not in dispute together with any penalty and interest then due with respect to such
undisputed portion of the tax, the treasurer shall further suspend collection activity while the court
retains jurisdiction unless the court, upon appropriate motion after notice and an opportunity to be

by different taxpayers that allege common claims or theories of relief.
(ii) Upon a determination that the appeal is frivolous, that collection may be jeopardized by delay, or
that suspension of collection would result in substantial economic hardship to the locality, the court
may require the taxpayer to pay the amount in dispute or a portion thereof, or to provide surety for
payment of the amount in dispute in a form acceptable to the court.
(iii) No suspension of collection activity shall be required if the application for judicial review fails to
identify with particularity the amount in dispute or the application does not relate to any assessment by

judicial review pursuant to Va. Code § 58.1-3984 is filed and served on the necessary parties within
30 days of the service of the notice of intent to file such application.

subsection.
c. Suspension of payment of disputed amount of refund due upon locality's notice of intent to
initiate judicial review.
(i) Payment of any refund determined to be due pursuant to the determination of the Tax
Commissioner of an appeal pursuant to subdivision (3) of this subsection shall be suspended if the
town serves upon the taxpayer, within 60 days of the date of the determination of the Tax
Commissioner, a notice of intent to file an application for judicial review of the Tax Commissioner's
determination pursuant to Va. Code § 58.1-3984 and pays the amount of the refund not in dispute,
including tax and accrued interest. Payment of such refund shall remain suspended while the court
retains jurisdiction unless the court, upon appropriate motion after notice and an opportunity to be
heard, determines that the locality's application for judicial review is frivolous, as defined in this
section.
(ii) No suspension of refund activity shall be permitted if the town's application for judicial review
fails to identify with particularity the amount in dispute.
(iii) The suspension of the obligation to make a refund shall cease unless an application for judicial

classification applicable to the taxpayer's business, including whether the business properly falls within a

Any misrepresentation or change in the applicable law or the factual situation as presented in the ruling request
shall invalidate any such ruling issued. A written ruling may be revoked or amended prospectively if (i) there is
a change in the law, a court decision, or (ii) the assessor notifies the taxpayer of a change in the policy or
interpretation upon which the ruling was based. However, any person who acts on a written ruling which later

effect.
(f) Recordkeeping and audits. Every person who is assessable with a license tax shall keep sufficient records to
enable the assessor town treasurer to verify the correctness of the tax paid for the license years assessable and to
enable the assessor town treasurer to ascertain what is the correct amount of tax that was assessable for each of
those years. All such records, books of accounts and other information shall be open to inspection and examination
by the assessor in order to allow the assessor town treasurer to establish whether a particular receipt is directly
attributable to the taxable privilege exercised within this jurisdiction the town. The assessor town treasurer shall
provide the taxpayer with the option to conduct the audit in the taxpayer's local business office, if the records are
maintained there. In the event the records are maintained outside this jurisdiction, copies of the appropriate books

Space.
Commented [J1]: It’s important to define public space and limit
these provisions to activities that use public space.
![Page 58: LURAY TOWN COUNCIL July 9, 2018 - 7:00 p.m. MEETING …townofluray.com/assets/council-agenda-07-09-2018--bookmarked.pdfJul 09, 2018 · Mr. Burke said that Council is requested to](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050420/5f8f51d4543d5060e7196f37/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)

Sec. 74-123. - Application for Permit.
(a) Time for filing. The Sponsor for any Event for which a permit is required shall submit an application
to the Chief of Police (the “Chief”). If the estimated number of persons who will participate in an Event
is twenty-five (25) or less, the application shall be submitted not less than five (5) days prior to the
Event. An application for an Event involving more than twenty-five (25) attendees shall be filed at
least ten (10) days before the Event. The Chief may accept a late filing upon a determination that
unforeseeable circumstances prevented the applicant from filing the application in a timely manner.
(b) Contents. The application shall contain the following information, utilizing a form provided by the
Town:
(1) The name, address, telephone number, and email address of the Sponsor and any organization
or group the Sponsor is representing.
(2) The name, address, telephone number, and email address of the person who will act as the Event
leader and will be responsible for conducting the Event.
(3) A description of the proposed activities during the Event;
(4) The date, starting time, and ending time of the Event, and if the application is for a recurring
series of Events, the dates starting times, and ending times of each.
(5) If the Event is a Public Assembly, the specific desired location(s) of the assembly.
(6) If the Event is a Parade, the specific assembly and dispersal locations, the specific route, and
the plans for assembly and dispersal.
(7) The anticipated number of people who will participate in the Event and, for Parades, the number
of vehicles and a description thereof.
(8) A statement as to whether the Event will occupy all or a portion of any street, sidewalk, or other
public right-of-way.
(9) A description of any sound amplification equipment, banners, signs, or other attention-getting
devices to be used in the Event.

control, street and property maintenance, administrative arrangements, police and fire
protection, and for the general protection of public health, safety and welfare.
Sec. 74-124. - Issuance or Denial of Permit.
Event permits shall be issued or denied as follows:
Commented [J2]: I recommend the Chief as the initial point of
contact for several reasons: (1) the Chief is probably the best
equipped to make the necessary safety determinations; (2) Event
Sponsors may be more diligent since a police officer is involved; (3)
it gives the Chief familiarity with the Event that could be helpful in
enforcement; and (4) it allows for an administrative appeal to the
Town Manager for denials.
Commented [J3]: Restraints on the use of public forums must be
reasonable and narrowly tailored to a significant governmental
interest. I believe the 14 and 60 day requirements are too onerous
and recommend these shorter timeframes.
![Page 59: LURAY TOWN COUNCIL July 9, 2018 - 7:00 p.m. MEETING …townofluray.com/assets/council-agenda-07-09-2018--bookmarked.pdfJul 09, 2018 · Mr. Burke said that Council is requested to](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050420/5f8f51d4543d5060e7196f37/html5/thumbnails/59.jpg)
(a) Denial for false information. The Chief shall not issue a permit if any of the information supplied by
an applicant is false or intentionally misleading.
(b) Approval. The Chief shall issue the permit with three (3) days of receiving the completed application
if the application and Event comply with the requirements of this chapter and the Chief finds that:
(1) The Event does not pose a significant risk of harm to public health, safety, and welfare;
(2) The time, duration, route, and size of the Event will not unreasonably interrupt the safe and
orderly movement of vehicular or pedestrian traffic on Public Space or the normal use of Public
Space;
(3) The Event will not unduly interfere with police, fire, or rescue services to the remainder of the
Town either by requiring the presence of such first responders or by slowing their travel to
locations across Town;
(4) The Event will not interfere with another Event for which a permit has been granted; and
(5) The Event will not violate state, federal or federal law.
(c) Denial. If the Chief denies an application after considering the factors set forth in Section 74-124(b),
the applicant shall be notified using such means as are available to provide notice as soon as possible.
The Chief shall advise the applicant of their right to appeal the decision under Sec. 74-125. Nothing in
this section shall permit the Chief to deny a permit based upon political, social, or religious grounds or
reasons or based upon the content of the views expressed. Denial of a permit on such grounds is
prohibited.
(d) Approval of Alternate. The Chief, in denying a permit for an Event, may authorize the Event on an
alternate date or time, or at an alternate location. An applicant desiring to accept an alternate permit
shall file a written notice of acceptance with the Chief.
Sec. 74-125. - Appeal.
Any person aggrieved by the refusal of the Chief to grant a permit, or by the revocation of a permit after one has
been issued, may appeal the denial or revocation to the Town Manager by filing a written notice of the appeal
setting forth the grounds thereof. Any such appeal must be received within five (5) days after the date of the
decision giving rise to the appeal. The Town Manager shall act upon the appeal within five (5) business days
after its receipt.
Sec. 74-126. - Excluded Areas.
No Event may take place that will require traffic to be stopped on Main Street (BUS-211) for a period of more
than ten minutes during weekdays between 6:00 am and 7:00 pm, excluding the regular stoppage of traffic as a
result of existing traffic signal devices. The Chief may include reasonable conditions as part of any permit issued
for an Event that will involve persons walking on Main Street to ensure that traffic is not stopped for a period of
more than ten minutes.
Sec. 74-127. - Competing or Opposing Groups.
Nothing in this section prevents persons or groups opposing or competing with the Sponsor of a permitted Event
(“Opponents”) from appearing at the Event, provided Opponents (a) do not unreasonably interfere with the
operation of the permitted event, or (b) unreasonably interrupt the safe and orderly movement of vehicular or
pedestrian traffic on Public Space or the normal use of Public Space.
The Sponsor for the Opponents shall make a written application to the Chief as soon as reasonably practicable
upon forming the intent to appear at an Event. If submitting a written application is not reasonably practicable,
the Sponsor for the Opponents must provide notice to the Chief as soon as they form the intent to appear at an
Commented [J4]: Appeal to Town Council may not always be
feasible given the short time period required for a decision.
Commented [J5]: This is an optional section to include if there
are areas the Town wants to categorically exclude.

Event. Without such notice, the Opponents may be denied permission to assemble because the Town may not be
able to adequately secure the Event. When Opponents are present, the Chief may assign Public Space to different
groups on an equitable basis, based roughly on the proportionate numbers of persons present. The Chief may
also physically separate Opponents from differing groups from one another in order to promote public safety.
Sec. 74-128. - Prohibited Conduct

matter of the demonstration, including without limitation symbolic weapons, open flames or other

Sec. 74-133. - Insurance.
If the approximate number of people who will participate in an Event is more than 50, the Sponsor of an Event
shall furnish a general liability and property damage insurance contract insuring the Sponsor’s liability for
personal injury, death and property damage resulting from its use of Public Space. The required general liability
and property damage insurance shall be provided in an amount not less than $1,000,000, and the insurance policy
shall name the Town (including is officers, officials, employees and agents) as an additional insured party to the
insurance contract. Failure to provide required insurance, and reasonable documentation of the insurance, will
be grounds for denial and/or revocation of a permit. Prior to commencement of the Event, the Sponsor must
provide the Town with an insurance certificate that verifies the insurance coverage required by these regulations.
In no event shall the Town have the duty to provide insurance to or on behalf of any third party.
The Chief may waive the insurance requirement, in whole or in part, for Events which do not (a) pose a high level
of liability risk to the Town or a material risk to public safety; and (b) do not involve any inherently dangerous
activity. A written request to waive or modify any insurance requirement must be made by the Sponsor at the
time a permit application is submitted. An approval or denial of the request will be made in writing to the Sponsor.
Sec. 74-134. - Fees and charges.
The Sponsor shall submit an application fee to the Town, and, if additional police personnel are necessary to
ensure that the Event does not endanger public health, safety, and welfare or disrupt the orderly flow of pedestrian
and vehicular traffic, the Sponsor shall pay police personnel charges to the Town. Such fees and charges are
payable in the amounts and at the times set forth in Appendix A to this chapter.
Commented [J6]: Provisions regarding insurance, fees, and
costs must include content-neutral standards under which those
items are assessed. In addition, they must also include content-
neutral exceptions for groups who cannot afford to pay.

The fees and charges due hereunder shall be waived, in whole or in part, if the Sponsor claims a bona fide financial
hardship in the application and demonstrates by reasonable evidence that such fees and charges would render the
Sponsor not reasonably able to conduct the Event. A bona fide financial hardship shall be deemed to exist if the
fees and charges herein exceed (a) ten percent (10%) of the Sponsor’s annual income, and (b) ten percent (10%)
of the Sponsor’s gross assets. In such cases, the Town Manager shall waive payment of the fees and charges to
the extent necessary to enable the Sponsor to conduct the Event.
Sec. 74-135. - Compliance with other laws.
Events must comply with all applicable federal, state and local laws. The granting of a permit required by this
chapter shall not eliminate any requirements for a business license or other permit and licenses which may be
required under federal, state or local law.
Sec. 74-136. - Severability.
If any portion of this chapter is for any reason held to be invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, such decision
