Mrs. Thornhill's Statement for Ma 3 1999 meetin :
Since 1980 1 have taken responsibility for my neighborhood's condition
and improvement. I have come to the City with a commitment to do my
part in helping make my neighborhood a better place to live. I have had
many of my neighbors help me in this process and many of us are still
involved. Today, our neighborhood shines in many places because of
our hard work, but we are not done yet. There are so many parts that
need attention and so many people have waited to see this improvement
reach their back yard. Last year NNEO received funds from the City for
building more new homes. But let me tell you that we did not rely only
on the City of Roanoke to help us. We received financing from many,
many sources. For every dollar that the City granted us, we have
successfully raised 9 dollars from other sources. We have brought in
resources from outside this City. As promised we are under construction
for 19 new housing units this year.
This year we asked for a small amount of funds to fill the gaps that are
so evident and are detrimental to those who live here. Lick Run Creek
has been causing water to come into the basements of homes for a long
time. We had been told that the City would help with the problem with
the understanding that we continued to care for our community. We
have kept our end of the bargain and the City is letting us down. Many
families have bought homes from us and the problem of water coming in
under the homes still exists. Once again we have not come to you
without a solution;we have the solution and we are even suggesting a
match for the funds. Please do not dishonor the work of our members
and staff by telling us that you do not see a way to fund this request of
$45,000 only.
The other request is for the 900 block of centre. I live there along with
several other families in the 800 block of Centre. The 900 block of
Centre is a disgrace and its current condition says that nobody cares
about those of us who have lived there, paid our taxes and sam the
neighborhood through good times and bad times. We are not asking you
to come up with a way to solve our problem. We are only asking you
for $80,000 to help seed our efforts to solve our problem. If the City has
decided that we are helping ourselves and therefore do not need you to
do what is your responsibility.then people will get discouraged. We do
not want the City to lose its focus on the neighborhoods and the people
who live in these neighborhoods. This City will look healthy and be
healthy if you keep your priorities in order and focus on making
people's living conditions better. We have worked long and hard to get
to where we are and although we do not need as much as we did before,
we do not ask for anything we do not deserve and we are going to do our
part in keeping our neighborhood crime free and healthy. We are not '-
convinced that you have done your best to find the money when we ask
for so little that will make so much of a difference.
Current teacher salaries in Roanoke City are now at the national average while current
retired teacher/administrator pensions are below national average, just as their salaries
were. In Roanoke City, according to numbers reported by the VRS in 1996, monthly
pensions of retired educators were as follows:
7 retirees received $1 to $100
289 .... $I01 to $1000
255 .... $1001 to $2000
38 .... $2001 to $3000
over $3000
House Bill 1844 (effective 7/1/99) will provide retired teachers/administrators who
taught 15 years or more in Virginia with a monthly health insurance credit of $2.50 for
each year taught, capped at $75. Local governing bodies can opt to give these retirees an
additional monthly health insurance credit of$1 for each year taught, capped at $30.
Combined with thc state allocation, this would give retirees a health insurance credit
comparable to that of other state retirees.
According to the VRS, only 500 teacher/administrator retirees in Roanoke City are
eligible for this health insurance credit and, based on years of service, not all would
receive the full $30. Furthermore, retirees who do not pay health insurance premiums
cann, ot participate in this program. All this in consideration, how much would it cost the
city to give its retired educators this benefit? Less than $200,000!
Localities now providing their retired educators with this benefit are:
Salem Bedford Manassas Sussex Shenandoah
Craig Campbell Stafford Lee Wise
Botetourt Winchester Fauquier Culpeper Rappahannock
Action is pending in other localities.
Only since 8/1/98 have retired educators received health insurance credits. The state
is now doing its fair share. Shouldn't the city do likewise?
Statement to Roanoke City Council: May 3, 1999
Good Evening Mayor Bowers, Members of the City Council...
My name is E. Duane Howard. I'm a member of the Old Southwest Civic Association
and the Roanoke Fair Housing Board, and president-elect of the Mayor's Committee for People
with Disabilities. In addition, I'm privileged to represent the committee on the Parks and
Recreation Comprehensive Citizen Master Planning Committee.
The proposed city budget calls for a one-cent reduction in the property tax. This
reduction is not in the best interests of property owners or the city, and let me tell you why I
believe this is so.
I'm sure you all read the recent editorials on our parks and recreation facilities in The
Roanoke Times. The Times made it clear that our city is grossly behind other benchmark cities in
parks and recreation. During the time I've spent on the Citizen Master Planning Committee, I've
become painfully aware exactly how lacking our Parks and Recreation facilities are.
For almost a year now, our committee has been developing a 1 O-year master plan with the
assistance of Consultant Leon Younger. Later this year, we hope to present this comprehensive
plan to you. The future of our city and the quality of life for its citizens may well depend on this
plan.
Roanoke's current inventory of parks and recreation facilities is 20 or more years behind
current standards for comparable cities. We must not only maintain our current facilities, but
expand upon them. One of the key elements of the committee's master plan calls for two new
multipurpose recreation facilities to be built over the next five years.
This comprehensive master plan must be funded. The proposed One-cent reduction in
property taxes would put us behind before we even get started. In fact, one of the possibilities we
may ask you to consider in the master plan is a one-cent increase in property taxes. By not
passing the proposed one-cent decrease, we could then ear-mark two cents to help fund the
master plan. Even then, we will still be $1 million short, but it would give us a good start.
In turn, property owners, the city and all its citizens will reap the benefits. If the master
plan is implemented and funded, property owners will enjoy an overall increase in property values;
the city will become a much more appealing location for potential new businesses and property
owners; and our citizens' quality of life will be greatly enriched.
As our trusted leaders, you have the responsibility to make the necessary decisions to
ensure our stability and economic success as we enter the next millennium. I strongly urge you to
table this one-cent reduction in property taxes. You, our city managers and school officials, need
to work together with John Coat, head of Parks and Recreation, to implement and fund the
master plan. It is simply imperative that we deal with this in a responsible manner and this one-
cent reduction is a step in the wrong direction.
Thank you for the opportunity and the privilege to serve our city and appear before you
here today.
E. Duane Howard, 508-B Walnut Ave., S.W., Roanoke, VA 24016. Tel.: 982-1085
ROANOKE EDUCATION ASSOCIATION/CITY COUNCIL'S PROPOSED TAX CUTS
MAY 3, 1999
Good evening City Council members and Mayor Bowers. My name is Esther Cirasunda and I am
president of the Roanoke Education Association. The Roanoke Education Association is composed of
65-70% of the professional teaching staff in the Roanoke City Public School System as well as
educational support personnel.
We are concerned that the Roanoke City Council is proposing a 1 cent reduction in real estate
taxes. We know that this could cause a reduction in the amount of money that is allotted to the Roanoke
City School System for operation.
Although Roanoke City property owners, including myself and many other school system
employees will benefit "slightly" from the proposed tax cut, Roanoke's children, our proposed future,
could benefit far more if the cuts were not made. How serious are we about raising educational standards
if we are cutting educational sources of funds which could be used to implement those standards.
Is the "Star City" to dim it's glow? Is not the principle greater than the small amount per property
owner involved? If all our educational needs were met, I would say AMEN. If not, I ask, if not now, WHEN?
The Superintendent has stated that the loss for one year can be equated to examples of a .4%
across the board increase in employee salaries or a 2% scale raise for teachers with more than 21 years
experience. Those of us in that category are falling further and further behind the national average salary
for teachers each year. Also, the average new teacher, due to the stresses and strains of the job as well as
salaries is only staying in the profession an average of 4.5 years. We must do something now in these
areas. I will remind you that for a pedod of at least ten years prior to the School Board's initiative to raise
some teacher salaries to the National Average, that pay for Roanoke City teachers was considerably less
than the surrounding counties. We also had our salaries frozen for one year in previous times.
The loss also equates in an example to the addition of 7 much needed new teaching positions as
well as to the purchase of newly adopted textbooks in Social Studies and Mathematics in order to meet
the new state Standards of Learning--SOL's.
Our own Mayor recently spoke before the Virginia Education Association state convention here in
Roanoke and expounded upon all of the wonderful programs that look so good on paper. Unfortunately,
he and I have not had time to meet and discuss some situations which continue to occur on a regular basis
which have damaged the morale of teachers. Are you aware of these situations? I charge you this
evening, that regardless of your budget findings, that each of you make a conscious effort to find out
more about what is actually happening in the schools by visiting and talking first hand to those of us who
must meet the children's needs on a daily basis. I think you would have a better understanding of what
needs to happen to improve the school system. You must include Education of our students as a TOP
PRIORITY.
We object to anything that will reduce funding for public education in Roanoke City. So many
needs are there. School safety issues are of course on our minds today and along with that go programs,
projects, and people who, unfortunately, cannot be found without dollars. We appeal to each of you as
the leaders of the city of Roanoke to help us keep our "Star" students glowing. It will be the "best" thing
anyone can do for our future. Thank you.
NOTICE OF PROPOSED REAL PROPERTY TAX INCREASE
Pursuant to Section 58.1-3321, Code of Virginia (1950), as amended, notice is hereby
given that the City of Roanoke proposes to increase property tax levies.
Assessment Increase: The total assessed value of real property, excluding
additional assessments due to new construction or improvements to property,
exceeds last year's total assessed value of real property by 2.66 percent.
Lowered Rate Necessary to Offset Increased Assessment: The tax rate which
would levy the same amount of real estate tax as last year, when multiplied by the
new total assessed value of real estate with the exclusions mentioned above,
would be $1.19 per $100 of assessed value. This rate will be known as the
"lowered tax rate."
Effective Rate Increase: The City of Roanoke proposes to adopt a tax rate of
$1.22 per $1 O0 of assessed value. The difference between the lowered tax rate
and the proposed tax rate would be $.03 per $100, or 2.66 percent. This
difference will be known as the "effective tax rate increase." Individual property
taxes may, however, increase at a percentage greater than or less than the above
percentage.
Proposed Total Budget Increase: Based on the proposed real property tax rate and
changes in other revenues, the total budget of the City of Roanoke will exceed last
year's by 4.66 percent.
A public hearing on the "effective tax rate increase" will be held on Monday, May 3,
1999, at 7:10 p.m., or as soon thereafter as the matter may be heard, in the Exhibit
Hall of Roanoke Civic Center, 710 Williamson Road, N.E. Roanoke, Virginia. All
