EXHIBIT A SIGN AMENDMENTS

170-38 Signs

A. Purpose. Signs obstruct views, distract motorists, displace alternative uses of land, and pose other problems that legitimately call for regulation. The purpose of this section is to prescribe the standards for location, design, illumination, height and size of all types of signs within the Town of Centreville in order to protect the unique and small town character of the Town. This section also intends to promote the following:

1. To encourage the effective use of signs as a means of communication for the

convenience of the public by preventing their overconcentration, improper placement and excessive size;

2. To maintain and enhance the aesthetic environment while promoting creativity and the

Town's ability to attract sources of economic growth and development;

3. To minimize the potential adverse effects of signs on nearby public and private

property;

4. To enable the fair and consistent enforcement of these sign regulations without

regulating the content of any sign. To accomplish this objective, this subsection must be interpreted in a manner consistent with the First Amendment guarantee of free speech.

B. General regulations.

1. Signs requiring permits. Other than temporary signs provided for in Subsection D

herein and exempt signs as provided herein, no sign shall be erected, enlarged, or altered without a permit from the Zoning Administrator. Applications for permits shall be submitted to the Zoning Administrator. Each application shall be accompanied by drawings and written material showing the area and general appearance of the sign, the method of illumination, the exact location of the proposed sign, and the method of

construction and/or attachment of such sign to the building or structure. Signs that do not extend over seven feet above existing grade and are completely screened from view, inclusive of light, from public roadways and other parcels by on-site buildings, structures, evergreen landscaping, and/or grade differences are exempt from the sign provisions of this chapter including the requirement to obtain a permit.

public court officer in the performance of official or directed duties shall not be subject to the provisions of this section, provided that all such signs shall be removed by the property owner no more than 10 days after their purpose has been accomplished or as otherwise required by law.

12. Where a federal, state, or local law requires a property owner to post a sign on the

owner's property to warn of a danger or to prohibit access to the property either generally or specifically, the owner must comply with the federal, state, or local law to exercise that authority by posting a sign on the property. If the federal, state, or local regulation describes the form and dimensions of the sign, the property owner must comply with those requirements; otherwise, when not defined, the sign shall be no

Fred M. McNeil, Member Page 2 of 2 Title: Extended Leave of Absence Resolution: 03-2026 Approved: Revised:

Policy #: Form(s): 24-001 Extended Leave of Absence (LOA) Policy

1. Purpose

The Town of Centreville recognizes that employees may occasionally need to be away from work for extended periods due to personal, family, military, or medical circumstances. This policy establishes the conditions under which employees may request an extended Leave of Absence (LOA) – paid or unpaid – while ensuring fairness, consistency, and compliance with applicable laws.

2. Applicability

This policy applies to all regular full-time employees.

Extended Leave:

• Is discretionary and subject to approval by the Department Head and Town

Manager.

• May be unpaid or partially paid if accrued leave is used.

• May be approved for up to 12 weeks in a 12-month period.

3. Employee Eligibility

An employee is eligible for extended leave if they:

a) Have worked for the Town for at least 12 continuous months, and

b) Have worked at least 1,250 hours during the 12 months immediately preceding the start of

leave.

4. Reasons for Extended Leave of Absence

Eligible employees may request leave for:

• Birth of a child and bonding within 12 months of birth.

• Placement of a child for adoption, foster care, and bonding within 12 months of

placement.

• A serious health condition that makes the employee unable to perform essential job

functions.

• Care for a spouse, child, or parent with a serious health condition.

• A qualifying exigency arising from military deployment; or

• Care for a covered service member (with a serious injury or illness) for a period of up to

26 weeks.

5. Pay Status During Leave

a) Employees must use all applicable accrued paid leave (e.g. sick leave, annual leave,

personal leave), unless the employee is receiving wage replacement from workers’ compensation.

Page 1 of 4

b) Employees who apply for Short-Term Disability (STD) benefits must notify Human

Resources at the time of application.

i. When an employee is approved for STD benefits, paid leave will not be required to be used concurrently unless necessary to supplement partial wage replacement.

ii. If STD benefits replace less than 100% of the employee’s regular wages, the employee may elect to use accrued paid leave to supplement income, up to their normal earnings.

iii. Employees may not receive both full paid leave and full disability benefits simultaneously for the same hours.

c) Employees who anticipate transitioning from Short-Term Disability to Long-Term

Disability (LTD) must coordinate with Human Resources prior to the expiration of STD.

i. LTD benefits generally begin after exhaustion of STD benefits and applicable waiting periods.

ii. Accrued paid leave is not required once LTD benefits begin.

6. Employee Responsibilities

Employees requesting an extended leave of absence must:

a) Provide written notice to the Human Resources Department through their supervisor at

least 30 days in advance for foreseeable leave.

b) For unforeseeable circumstances, notice must be provided as soon as possible.

c) Employees must provide sufficient information to their supervisor and Human Resources

to determine eligibility of leave (not a diagnosis).

d) Keep supervisor and Human Resources informed of any changes to the expected return

date.

Failure to provide required documentation or notice may result in denial or delay of leave and potential disciplinary action.

7. Benefits During Leave

a) Paid Leave Status – the employee’s group health insurance, retirement contributions, and

other payroll deductions will continue through the Town’s regular payroll process.

i. Continuation of employee medical benefit eligibility will be extended from the date of the first day of the designated leave as follows:

1. Disability Leave

a. 12 weeks b. Minimum active employment required for disability leave eligibility: None

2. Military Leave

a. 12 weeks

3. Worker’s Compensation Leave

a. 12 months

4. Personal Leave

a. 12 months b. Minimum active employment required for personal leave eligibility: None Page 2 of 4

b) Unpaid Leave Status – The Town will continue the employee’s group health insurance

under the same conditions as if the employee were actively working.

• Employees must continue paying their share of premiums.

• Other benefits, such as retirement contributions or leave accruals, will pause during

unpaid leave unless otherwise required by law or Town policy.

If an employee does not return to work after leave, the Town may recover its share of premiums paid during the leave unless the failure to return is due to a serious health condition or another qualifying reason.

8. For Town-approved extended leave of absence, reinstatement will depend on staffing and

operational needs. The Town cannot guarantee job restoration but will make reasonable efforts to reassign the employee to a similar role with equivalent pay and benefits.

9. Intermittent or Reduced Scheduled Leave

Employees may take intermittent leave or work a reduced schedule when medically necessary.

The Town may temporarily transfer the employee to an alternative position with equivalent pay and benefits to better accommodate such schedules.

10. Coordination of Leave Programs

a) If multiple leave programs apply (i.e - Workers’ Compensation, Short-term disability, etc.),

leave will run concurrently to the extent permitted by law.

b) Accrued leave must be used in accordance with applicable Town policies.

11. Recordkeeping and Confidentiality

The Human Resources Department will maintain all leave-related documentation in confidential medical files, separate from personnel files, and retain such records for at least three (3) years or longer if required by law.

12. Non-Retaliation

a) The Town strictly prohibits retaliation against any employee who requests, takes, or

supports another employee’s lawful leave of absence.

b) Violations of this provision may result in disciplinary action up to and including

termination.

13. Administration

The Human Resources Department is responsible for:

• Reviewing and approving extended leave of absence;

• Ensuring compliance with federal and state requirements;

• Tracking leave usage; and

• Maintaining related documentation.

Supervisors must promptly refer all leave requests to Human Resources for review, as it relates Page 3 of 4 to this policy.
