Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council
Roanoke, Virginia
Dear Mayor Bowers and Members of Council:
SUBJECT: Briefing on Evaluation of Effectiveness of Enforcement of the Building Code
I. Background:
Property insurance rates are affected by the general risk of damage or loss of the
property.
Bo
Insurance Services Office, Inc. (ISO) is a private organization, supported by
insurance companies, that provides insurers with risk and underwriting information
which insurers may use to set insurance rates.
Local fire departments have been evaluated by ISO as to their effectiveness
for many years, which have affected insurance rates for residential and
commercial properties.
Effectiveness of local application of the Building Code has begun to be
evaluated by ISO, particularly as applied to new construction to reduce
property damage caused by natural disasters (e.g. earthquakes, hurricanes,
floods).
Co
"Building Code Effectiveness Grading Schedule" (BCEGS) is a 100-point scale
developed by ISO to evaluate administration of the Building Code to new
construction only. The BCEGS measures three components of Building Code
enforcement:
°
Administration of Codes, including such elements as:
ao
Administrative staffing levels
Qualifications of administrators and enforcement personnel
Contractor licensing requirements
Public awareness programs
Administrative policies and procedures
Review of Building Plans, including such elements as:
a. Staffing levels
b. Experience of plans reviewers
c. Detail of plans review
Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council
Page 2
Field Inspections~ including such elements as:
a. Staffing levels
b. Experience of field enforcement staff
c. Inspections required and performed
An "Effectiveness Classification" is assigned to each jurisdiction evaluated with
BCEGS. This classification is on a scale from 1 (highest rating) to 10 (lowest
rating). The higher the rating (i.e. lower the classification number), the more likely
insurers are to reduce the insurance rates for new buildings.
II. Current Situation:
Roanoke's Building Department was evaluated by ISO using the BCEGS in
September 1997.
The Building Department's rating was 78.84 on the 100-point scale, equal to an
Effectiveness Classification of 3 both for 1- and 2-family residential and commercial
and industrial construction (Attachment A). The ratings on the three separate
components of enforcement were:
1. Administration of Codes 41.75 (ora possible 54.0, or 77.3%)
2. Plans Review
17.24 (of a possible 23.0, or 75.0%)
3. Field Inspections
19.85 (ofa possible 23.0, or 86.3%)
78.84 100.0 78.84%
The Effectiveness Classification of 3 places Roanoke in the highest ranking groul,
of Virginia localities evaluated by ISO. As best the administration has been able to
determine, no other locality in the state has received an Effectiveness Classification
higher than 3. See Attachment B for illustrative listing of scores from other localities
throughout the Commonwealth.
III. Conclusion:
The high rating of the Ci_ty Building Department indicates the quali_ty of its
operations and may result in insurance savings to the owners of newly constructed
buildings in the City.
Congratulations are in order to all the Building Department staff for its excellent
service to the community.

Mr. W. Robert Herbert, City Manager
City of Roanoke
215 Church Avenue Room 364
Roanoke, VA 24018
Dear Mr. Herbert:
We wish to thank you and Ronald H. Miller for the cooperation given to our representative, Eric W.
Kimpfler, during our recent survey. We have completed our analysis of the building codes adopted
by your community and the efforts put forth to properly enforce those codes. The resulting Building
Code Effectiveness Grading Classification is 3 for 1 and 2 family residential property and 3 for
commercial and industrial property.
The Insurance Services Office, Inc. (ISO) is an insurer-supported organization with the primary
mission of providing advisory insurance underwriting and rating information to insurers. There is no
requirement that insurers use our advisory material. Insurers may have adopted, or may be in the
process of adopting, an ISO insurance rating program that will provide rating credits to individual
property insurance policies in recognition of community efforts to mitigate property damage due to
natural disasters. These insurers may use the Building Code Effectiveness Grading Classification we
have recently developed for your community as a basis for the credits used. While individual insurers
may use different credits or different effective dates, the ISO program will apply credits to new
construction within the City of Roanoke, that has been issued a Certificate of Occupancy in the year
1997 and forward.
We have attached a copy of our report which will provide you additional information about our
classification process and how we have graded various aspects of your community's building codes
and their enforcement. We want to highlight the fact that the Building Code Effectiveness Grading
Schedule is an insurance underwriting and information tool. It is not intended to analyze all aspects
of a comprehensive building code enforcement program. It is not for purposes of determining
compliance with any state or local law nor is it for making property/casualty loss prevention or loss
safety recommendations.
If you have any questions about the Classification that was developed, please let us know.
Additionally, if you are planning on any future changes in your building codes or their enforcement,
please advise us as these changes may affect our analysis and your community's grading
classification.
Sincerely,

Dear Mayor Bowers and Members of City Council:
Subject: APPROPRIATION OF BUDGETED AMOUNT TO ROANOKE RIVER
FLOOD REDUCTION PROJECT
Background on the subject in chronological order is as follows:
A. Local Cooperation ARreement (LCA) was execute~l with the Army Corps of
Engineers on June 25,,1990.
B. Commitment to fund under the LCA was 5% local cash match for project and
construction costs, 100% for lands and easements, 100% for relocation costs,
and 50% for the recreation trail.
$808,000 was included in transfers to Capital Projects Fund as part of tho
approved General Fund budget for fiscal year 1998 in support of this project.
II. Current situation is as follows:
Bud.qeted funding of $808,000, needs to be transferred to the Capital Projects
Fund and appropriate in the proper Capital Projects Fund account.
III.
Issues in order of importance are as follows:
A. Costs
B. Fundin.q available
C. Project accounting
IV.
Alternative____~s in order of feasibility are as follows:
Council approve the transfer and appropriation of $808,000 from General Fund
account number 001-004-9310-9508, to Capital Projects Fund account number
008-056-9620-9003, Roanoke River Flood Reduction.
Costs for the local share of this project are estimated to be in excess
of $14 000 000. At the appropriate time, as major construction
starts, the previously approved bond issue of $7,500,000 will be
issued.
Funding available in the adopted FY98 General Fund Budget as
previously identified, will be placed in the proper account to provide

o
funds for preliminary project expenses until such time as major
construction begins and bonds are issued.
Proiect accounting requires that available funds be placed in the proper
account.
Council choose not to transfer the available fund.,; to the appropriate project
account.
Costs will not (~hange.
Funding available will remain in the General Fund until some disposition
is approved by Council.
Project accounting is a moot issue.
Mo
Recommendation is that City Council concur in Alternative A, and take the following
specific actions:
Ac
Transfer $808,000 from General Fund account number 001-004-9310-9508 to
the Capital Projects Fund, and appropriate the same in Capital Projects Fund

May 18, 1998
Council Report No. 98-137
Back~ on the subject in chronological order is as follows:
Ao
Several significant drainage problems have existed for~ many years alon:~
Murdock Creek which is located in the Greater Deyerle Neighborhood, SW. The
projects included in this design will replace the undersized street culverts on
Clara Avenue and Knollwood Road and construct a storm drain system along
Deyerle Road near Valentine Avenue.
The Murdock Creek Drainage Projects are included in the Capital Improvemenl
Program (CIP), approved by City Council on July 21, 1997. These projects
received a high priority rating and funding was established in the 1997 Bond
Referendum.
II.
Current situation is as follows:
City Council is requested to appropriate fund,-, for the Murdock Creek Drainage
Project design.
Bo
An advertisement for consultant services for the Design for Various Stormwate,
Management Projects was published in the January 4, 1998, issue of The
Roanoke Times and in the January 8, 1998, issue of The Roanoke Tribune.
Co
Eleven firms responded to the request for proposals and Mattern & Crai.q, Inc.,
was selected to perform design services for the Murdock Creek Drainage
Project.
The OroDosed contract with Mattern & Crai.q, Inc., provides for an engineerinu
design of the Murdock Creek Drainage Projects to stay within the construction
and property rights acquisition budget of $588,100. The engineering design will
replace the undersized street culverts on Clara Avenue and Knollwood Road and
construct a storm drain system along Deyerle Road near Valentine Avenue, as
allowed within budgetary constraints. The proposal from Mattern & Criag, Inc.
for the professional design services necessary for this project is $61,900.
Adding a 5% contingency for potential scope of work changes in project design,
would bring the total fee to $65,000.

SUBJECT: Transfer of Capital Funds
Dear Mayor Bowers and Members of City Council:
.Background:
The Transfer to Capital Projects Fund account in the General Fund includes
$310,000 budgeted 'for the Transportation Projects in FY 1997-1998.
II Current Situation:
Ao
This amount has not been appropriated in accounts in the Capital Projects
Fund. This needs to be done in order to properly reserve these funds for the
transportation projects they were intended to finance.
Capital Improvement Program Droject~ related to transportation would
ultimately have up to .$310,000 available as a supplement to funding
previously made available from the past two (2) bond referendums.
Issues:
A. Timing
B. Transportation projects
Alternatives:
City Council appropriate $310,000 from the Transfer from General Fund in
Capital Projects Fund accounts as follows:
$250,000 into the Capital Improvement Reserve for Streets and
Bridges.
$60,000 into the Traffic Signals - Install New Signals account No. 008-
052-9561-9003.
Timing is important for funds to be appropriated prior to the end of the
fiscal year, thereby placing the funds in an account for their intended
use.
Council Report #98-138
Page 2
May 18, 1998
V
Transportation projects previously funded from the past two (2) bond
referendums can be supplemented, as needed, with these funds.
Specifically, the $60,000 recommended for the Traffic Signals - Install
New Signals account will be used for purchase of traffic signal poles,
mast arms, signals, controllers and miscellaneous expenditures for
the Elm Avenue/Main Street/Ferdinand Avenue intersection to be
signalized later this year. These items will be ordered through the
Office of Supply Management.
Do not authorize the Director of Finance to appropriate $310,000 from the
Transfer from General Fund to Capital Projects Fund accounts Capital
Improvement Reserve for Streets and Bridges, or other transportation-related
capital accounts.
Timing needs are not met and funds may not be designated for
transportation purposes.
Transportation projects that require supplemental funding would need
to be funded from other sources.

Report # 98-706
The Honorable David A. Bowers, Mayor
and Members of City Council
Roanoke, Virginia
Dear Mayor Bowers and Members of Council:
SUBJECT: REGIONAL COMMISSION TO RENOVATE, EXPAND AND
OPERATE THE JUVENILE DETENTION CENTER
I. BACKGROUND
The City of Roanoke owns and operates the Juvenile Detention Center
located in Botetourt County.
The State Department of Juvenile Justice partiallly funds the operation of the
Juvenile Detention Center. For Fiscal Year 1998-99, the total operating cost
of the Center is projected to be $1,163,411, with the local cost of operations
projected to be $549,885.
The original structure was built in 1960 and expanded in 1979. It does not
meet current bed space needs or building codes/regulations for secure
detention centers.
The current licensed capacity of the Center is 21 beds. However, the State
Board of Juvenile Justice approved a Needs Assessment Study in April 1996
for expansion of the Center to forty-three (43) beds to accommodate the
needs of Roanoke City and Botetourt County. Under State regulations, the
Center must provide space for Botetourt County juveniles because the
Center is sited there.
The Center had operated as a reqional facility until Fall 1996, providing bed
space on a per diem reimbursement basis to other regional jurisdictions,
including Botetourt, Franklin, and Roanoke Counties, and the City of Salem.
At that time, however, the City restricted access to other jurisdictions
because of overcrowding and the possible loss of licensure from the State.
Other jurisdictions would be allowed bed space only if the population was
under the licensed capacity of twenty-one (21).
Fo
The State Board of Juvenile Justice approved a Planning Study in July 1997
for renovating and expanding the Center from a twenty-one (21) bed facility
to a forty-three (43) bed facility.
Page 2
II.
The State Department of Juvenile Justice approved preliminary construction
plans in January 1998 for expanding and renovating the Center to the forty-
three (43) bed capacity.
$2,187,000 in general obligation bonds have been approved by City voters
in previous bond referendums to help finance the local share of the total cost
of expanding and renovating the Center.
CURRENT SITUATION
Ao
The City of Salem and Counties of Franklin and Roanoke secured approval
of a Needs Assessment Study by the State Board of Juvenile Justice in
November 1997. The approved study acknowledged the need for thirty-eight
(38) additional detention beds in the region, allocated as follows:
County of Roanoke - 20 beds
City of Salem - 10 beds
County of Franklin - 8 beds
The three localities were authorized to initiate a Planning Study to determine
the best option for constructing thirty-eight (38) additional detention beds in
the region.
The Department of Juvenile Justice encouraged negotiations by all
jurisdictions to develop a regional facility, citing Code of Virginia Section
16.1-309.5C that states that "priority funding shall be given to multi-
jurisdictional initiatives" regarding detention center construction
reimbursement. All jurisdictions involved expressed a desire to enter into
some kind of arrangement for the development of a regional juvenile
detention center.
The City of Salem and Counties of Franklin and Roanoke hired Hayes,
Seay, Mattern and Mattern (HSMM) to develop feasibility and design plans
for adding thirty-eight (38) beds to Roanoke City's proposed forty-three (43)
bed facility. A revised Planning Study prepared by HSMM was submitted to
the State Department of Juvenile Justice for review in February 1998 based
on an eighty-one (81) bed regional facility.
The State Department of Juvenile Justice gave preliminary approval to the
revised regional Planning Study to avoid further delays in Roanoke City's
expansion project, however, approval must be secured from the State Board
of Juvenile Justice. In order to secure Board approval, all participating
jurisdictions must submit resolutions of their governing bodies expressing
the intent to participate in a regional facility with the revised Planning Study
Page 3
when presented to the State Board of Juvenile Justice for approval.
F
The Planning Study must be considered and approved by the State Board
of Juvenile Justice at its regularly scheduled meeting on July 8'h if the project
is to be considered for funding in the next budgetary planning cycle by the
State. The Planning Study and joint resolutions from all participating
jurisdictions must be submitted to the Regional Office of the Department of
Juvenile Justice for processing and inclusion on the Board's July 8'h agenda
no later than May 26t~.
The City Manager appointed a team in March 1998 to rapidly re-evaluate all
options available to Roanoke City for fast-tracking the renovation and
expansion of the Center to meet our bed space requirements. The team is
chaired by the Director of Public Safety and includes representatives from
the City Attorney's Office, Department of Finance, Director of Human
Development, Engineering Department, Juvenile Detention Center, Office of
Management and Budget, Regional Office of the Department of Juvenile
Justice, and HSMM.
The team evaluated three primary options for meeting the detention bed
space needs of Roanoke City:
Forty-three (43) bed facility owned, operated and constructed by
Roanoke City at the existing site in Botetourt County that would
provide bed space only to Roanoke City and to others, including
Botetourt County, on a per diem reimbursement basis;
Eight-one (81) bed facility owned, operated, and constructed by
Roanoke City at the existing site in Botetourt County that would
provide bed space to the Cities of Roanoke and Salem and Counties
of Botetourt, Franklin and Roanoke on a contractual per diem
reimbursement basis; and
Eighty-one (81) bed facility owned, operated and constructed by a
regional commission at the existing site in Botetourt County that would
provide bed space to the Cities of Roanoke and Salem and Counties
of Botetourt, Franklin and Roanoke on a contractual per diem
reimbursement basis.
I. Issues considered in evaluating the options available included:
Administrative and operational responsibility and control;
Asset ownership responsibilities;
Capital investment required;
Page 4
City Council's vision of Regional Cooperation;
Debt issuance for construction financing;
Ease of implementation;
Flexibility for future growth;
Liability;
Meeting current bed space needs;
Operational cost;
Regulatory issues at the state and local levels;
State funding; and
Timing.
The team concluded that the third option1 an eighty-one (81) bed facility
owned, operated and constructed by a regional commission at the existing
site in Botetourt County, is in the best interests of the City after a thorough
evaluation of all issues as they relate to each of the three options, and
recommended that option to the City Manager. The City Manager authorized
the team to negotiate that option with the other participating jurisdictions.
A draft agreement to create a Roanoke Valley Detention Commission is in
the final staqes of negotiation by a team consisting of staff representatives
from the City of Salem and Counties of Botetourt, Franklin, and Roanoke, the
Chief Judge of the Juvenile and Domestic Relations Court, and staff
representatives from the Regional Office of the Department of Juvenile
Justice. A copy of the draft agreement is attached to this report. Key
features of the draft agreement include:
Fair representation for all member jurisdictions on the Commission Board;
Equitable compensation to the City of Roanoke for purchase of existing
Center real and personal property by the Commission;
Financing of the cost of purchasing existing Center assets and construction/
renovation costs for the eighty-one (81) bed facility by the Commission;
Adequate allocation of bed space to member jurisdictions to meet bed
space needs identified in the Needs Assessment and Planning Study
documents;
Operation and maintenance of the new facility by the Commission and its
staff;
Fair treatment of existing employees at the Center through continuation of
employment and provision for equivalent salaries and fringe benefits after
the transition date;
Payment of the same per diem rate by all member jurisdictions for operating
costs related to bed space utilized;
Payment of a per diem rate by non-member jurisdictions that is higher than
the rate paid by members; and
Reimbursement by the Commission for any services provided by member
jurisdiction to the Commission, such as Emergency Medical Services.

IV.
The new center is expected by be in operation by July 1, 2000.
The General Assembly has passed legislation to allow creation of tho
Roanoke Valley Detention Commission, and the Governor has now signed
that legislation.
The governing bodies of the City of Salem and Counties of Franklin and
Roanoke have previously adopted resolutions in support of the creation of
a regional detention commission, and are scheduled to consider the draft
agreement at their next regularly scheduled meeting based on the following
schedule:
City of Salem - May 25th
County of Franklin - May 19th
County of Roanoke - May 26th
County of Botetourt - May 19th
ISSUES
A. Detention Bed Space Needs for Roanoke City
B. City Council's Vision of Regional Cooperation
C. Financial Impact
D. Fair Treatment of Employees
E. Timing
ALTERNATIVES
City Council approve the joint resolution authorizing the creation of and the,
City's participation in the Roanoke Valley Detention Commission; authorize;
the City Manager to execute an aqreement with other member jurisdictions
and the Commission in a form approved by the City Attorney to allow
construction and operation of an eighty-one (81) bed regional juvenile
detention center; and authorize the sale of the building known as tho
Roanoke City Juvenile Detention Center in Botetourt County, approximately
8.5 acres of land surrounding the Center, and the personal property used at
the Center.
Detention Bed Space Needs for Roanoke City for the immediate
future would be met with the creation of an eighty-one (81) bed
regional juvenile detention center. The City will be guaranteed forty-
Page 6
o
one (41) beds, and the commission will have the flexibility to expand
the facility at a later date should eighty-one (81) beds prove
inadequate.
City Council's Vision of Regional Cooperation would be advanced
with the creation of this regional facility. The creation of the Roanoke
Valley Detention Commission to operate the facility is not only
regional cooperation, but a form of regional government since the
commission is a separate political subdivision of the Commonwealth,
with all powers granted under the Code of Virginia, 1950, as
amended.
Financial Impact - Regardless of the option selected, the City's local
cost for housing city juveniles will increase over time because of the
financing of construction/renovation costs and increased operational
costs for the expanded facility (twenty-one (21) beds to a minimum of
forty-one (41) beds). In this particular option, based on the pro forma
budget included in the Planning Study, it is estimated that the City's
proportionate share of operating costs will increase approximately
$400,000 annually (in Fiscal Year 2000-01 dollars) when fully utilizing
all bed spaces allocated.
Regarding the capital cost of the project, the Director of Finance will
recommend a funding scenario for the City's share of the
construction/renovation project. One option would be for the City to
use existing cash in the capital project account plus proceeds from
the sale of personal and real property assets to the Commission to
fund the city share of the capital project cost. This action would
reduce the per diem cost ultimately paid to the Commission for
housing city juveniles, and minimize future budgetary impacts to the
General Fund.
Fair Treatment of Employees would be achieved since all existing city
employees would have the opportunity to become employees of the
commission with salaries and fringe benefits equivalent to those
received as of the date of transition. Employees will have the right to
remain as employee members of the Roanoke City Pension Plan.
The Commission would also assume extended leave, paid leave, sick
leave, and vacation leave balances for such employees.
Timing -All other member jurisdictions, with the exception of Botetourt
County, have approved the joint resolution for creation of the
Commission. City Council approval of the same resolution will help
to expedite the construction/renovation project, with anticipated
Page 7
V
completion and star/up in July 2000. Selection of another option may
slow down the project since it will require reconsideration by the other
member jurisdictions.
City Council not approve the joint resolution authorizing the creation of and
the City's participation in the Roanoke Valley Detention Commission; nor
authorize the City Manager to execute an agreement with other member
jurisdictions and the Commission in a form approved by the City Attorney to
allow construction and operation of an eighty-one (81) bed regional juvenile
detention center; nor authorize the sale of the building known as tho
Roanoke City Juvenile Detention Center in Botetourt County, approximately
8.5 acres of land surrounding the Center, and the personal property used al
the Center; but, instead provide guidance to the city administration as to
which other option(s) should be pursued to meet the critical bed space needs
of the City.
Detention Bed Space Needs for Roanoke City would be addressed
under any of the three options considered. The City would have a
minimum of forty-one (41) beds allocated under any option
considered.
City Council's Vision of Regional Cooperation would be advanced
under all options except the option for the City to own, operate, and
construct a for/y-three (43) bed facility at the existing site in Botetourt
County.
3. Financial Impact would be dependent upon the option selected.
Fair Treatment of Employees would likely be guaranteed under any
option selected.
5. Timing would be dependent upon the option selected.
RECOMMENDATION
City Council approve the joint resolution authorizing the creation of and the
_City's participation in the Roanoke Valley Detention Commission; authorizo
.the City Manager to execute an agreement with other member jurisdictions
and the Commission in a form approved by the City Attorney to allow
construction and operation of an eighty-one (81) bed regional juvenile
detention center; and authorize the sale of the buildinq known as thn
Roanoke City Juvenile Detention Center in Botetourt County, approximately
8.5 acres of land surrounding the Center, and the personal property used al
the Center.

The City of Roanoke has budgeted $1,118,254 in VJCCCA funding for Fiscal
Year 1997-98.
II. CURRENT SITUATION
mo
The 1995 Virginia General Assembly enacted the Virginia Juvenile Community
Crime Control Act (VJCCCA) with an effective date of January 1, 1996.
VJCCCA replaced the block grant system for all community -based
programs and services except secure detention homes. The purpose of the
act is to establish a balanced community-based system of sanctioned
programs and services for juvenile offenders.
Honorable Mayor David A. Bowers and
Members of City Council

May 18, 1998
Bo
VJCCCA allows localities to use unexpended state funds between biennial
years. The city has $182,595 in unexpended state funds from FY 1996-97
for use in FY 1997-98. This is comprised of $23,556 of CMERP funding
which arose from unexpended VJCCCA funds in the general fund as well
as $138,389 ofunexpended grant funds. Funding in the amount of
$20,650 from the unexpended VJCCCA funds pool was previously re-
appropriated as a part of the FY 1997-98 VJCCCA program plan approved
by the Department of Juvenile Justice.
The City of Roanoke will receive an additional $2,330 in VJCCCA
revenue as a result of the re-application of the funding formula
City Council approved the local revised plan on October 22, 1997 which was
submitted to the State Department of Juvenile Justice for review and approval of
the Board of Juvenile Justice on March 9, 1998.
VJCCCA requires the ci_ty to maintain its funding level based on the
amount of local dollars supporting block grant programs as of the fiscal
year ending June 30, 1995. The City of Roanoke expended $501,935 as
its local contribution to the operation of the block grant programs for the
1994-95 fiscal year. This will be the maintenance of effort level matching
the VJCCCA funding from the Department of Juvenile Justice. No
additional local match will be required.
The unexpended state funds and new revenue will be used to supplement existing
programs and to provide three new service programs for the juvenile justice
population in Roanoke City.
The continued and expanded programs to be funded with the unexpended
state funds through the VJCCCA and local funds are:

2. New programs to be established include:
Emergency diagnostic services
It's Your Choice diversion/purchase of services
Program evaluation
The establishment of these services will enhance and add to the public
safety programming for the Juvenile Justice System and provide for
rehabilitation, community supervision and family preservation efforts.
These services will provide sanctions, progressive treatment to juvenile
offenders, and/or their families in a community-based system of programs
and services.
III. ISSUES
Need for additional services continue to be documented for the past three to four
years and a waiting list for services exists in our present Juvenile Justice
programs.
Bo
Funding fi.om the State of Virginia to create new and/or enhance current services
is available through the Virginia Juvenile Community Crime Control Act of 1995.
ALTERNATIVES
Ci_ty Council to authorize the Director of Finance to transfer the unexpended state
funds to new accounts as detailed on Exhibit B as well as $23,556 in CMERP
funding and appropriate the additional state revenue.
1. Service Capacity
ao
Addition of the new programs and services will increase the
numbers of youth and/or their families who could be served.
Honorable Mayor David A. Bowers and
Members of City Council
Page 4
May 18, 1998
bo
Addition of these programs will allow for the provision of services
in areas not previously addressed by the City's Juvenile Justice
programs.
Co
Program evaluation of the present VJCCCA programs will provide
planning information for the next bi-annual plan.
2. Funding.
ao
Unexpended and additional state funding will be appropriated to
supplement present services and establish additional services as
proposed.
Bo
City Council not transfer the unexpended state funds and appropriate the
additional state revenue or CMERP funding.
Capacity. Programs and services will not be adequate and at the number
of youth and families served will not reach the level of need.
Funding. The level of fimding will remain at the current level and the city
will forfeit the use of the unexpended and additional state funds.

funds and appropriate the additional state revenue and CMERP and take
the following specific actions.
a°

Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council
Roanoke, Virginia
Subject: Fund Appropriations - Personnel Lapse Report
Dear Mayor Bowers and Members of City Council:
I. Background on the subject is as follows:
Personnel lapse is generated due to employee turnover and vacancies
in City departments.
For the current Fiscal Year, salary savings of $825,000 are projected
as a result of these vacancies.
II. Current Situation is as follows:
To provide timely information to City Council and increase administrative
efficiency, the status of lapse was reported quarterly to City Council for
the first 2 quarters as a Consent Agenda item. This quarterly report
will provide a budget ordinance that encompasses all quarters, eliminates
the budgeted lapse amount and adjusts affected departmental operating
budgets.
Be
Total estimated personnel lapse generated for Fiscal Year 1997-98
is $1,210,000. This funding is allocated as shown on Attachment "A"
of this report.
Personnel lapse generated exceeds the estimate of $825,000 by $385,000.
This excess lapse will be used as follows:
Solid Waste Management/Refuse - $335,000 will be transferred to
fees for professional services account to cover costs associated with
startup of Phase I and II of automated/semi-automated residential refuse
collection program.
Civic Center - $50,000 will be transferred to fees for professional services
account to cover costs associated with hosting the Virginia Municipal
League Annual Conference in the fall of 1998.
Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council

Fund Appropriation - Personnel Lapse Report

Vo
Issues in order of importance are as follows:
A. Funding
B. Timing
Alternatives in order of feasibility are as follows:
A. Authorize the transfer of personnel lapse funds from departmental accounts
to personnel lapse account 001-002-9410-1090 and others as listed on
Attachment "A" of this report.
1. Funding is available in the salary accounts due to turnover and
vacancies in City departments.
2. Timing is important since funds need to be transferred prior to
June 30, 1998.
B. Do not authorize the transfer of personnel lapse funds from departmental
accounts to personnel lapse account 001-002-9410-1090 and others as listed
on Attachment "A" of this report.
1. Funding would remain in departmental budgets and salary lapse savings
would not be transferred to salary lapse account 001-002-9410-1090,
nor used to cover costs associated with automated refuse or the Virginia
Municipal League 1998 conference.
2. Timing is not an issue.
Recommendation:
City Council concur in Alternative A and authorize the transfer of $825,000 funding
from departmental accounts to personnel lapse account 001-002-9410-1090 as
listed on Attachment A, $335,000 to Solid Waste Management and $50,000 to the
Civic Center Fund.

CITY OF ROANOKE
May 18, 1998
Honorable Mayor and Members
of City Council
Roanoke, Virginia
Dear Mayor Bowers and Members of Council:
City Council authorized the transfer of the City Nursing Home operation to
Smith/Packett Med-Com, Inc. on August 14, 1995 (Ordinance No. 32590). This
privately-owned company agreed to build a new facility and relocate all residents, as well
as offer employment to those employees who elected to transfer. The contract was
executed, and Smith/Packett constructed a new facility in the City of Roanoke. The
remuneration of $425,000 included equipment, goodwill, and the right to relocate bed
capacity, records and files. The closing culminated on July 15, 1997. All employees of
the Nursing Home either retired, voluntarily transferred to Smith/Packett or were placed
in other positions within the City. No employees were terminated as a result of
discontinuing the Nursing Home operation.
The City accounted for the operation of the Nursing Home as an enterprise fund,
supported by patient fees and an annual operating subsidy from the General Fund of
approximately $500,000. Discontinuing the operation of the Nursing Home allows the
annual operating subsidy to be redirected to fund other projects. The amount of the
operating subsidy has been used in the current year to help finance the 800 MHZ
Regional Radio Project, and the FY99 recommended budget proposes the same. In
future years, the operating subsidy will be used to repay bonds issued to finance the
1998-2002 Capital Improvement Program.
Discontinuing the Nursing Home operation necessitates closure of the Nursing Home
Enterprise Fund and transfer of the remaining equity back to the General fund. After
discontinuance of operation, the remaining equity totaled $321,518. Of this amount,
$260,000 was appropriated to help fund the 800 MHZ Regional Radio Project (Ordinance
33673), leaving a balance of $61,518.
During the fiscal year 1996-97 budget study process, City Council made a commitment
to provide funding up to $250,000 for the National D-Day Memorial Foundation over a
five-year period. Currently, $100,000 of this commitment has been paid. The remaining
equity in the Nursing Home Fund provides an opportunity to make the third $50,000
contribution toward City Council's $250,000 commitment.
Honorable Mayor and Members
of City Council
May 18, 1998
Page 2
We recommend City Council approval of the attached budget ordinance transferring the
remaining residual equity to the General Fund, $50,000 of which is to be appropriated
to an account to be paid to the National D-Day Memorial Foundation and the remaining
$11,518 to be appropriated to the General Fund Contingency. We also recommend
closure of the Nursing Home Fund effective June 30, 1998.

A RESOLUTION providing for payment of a monetary supplement to certain
members of the City of Roanoke Pension Plan who retire prior to attaining age sixty-five.
WHEREAS, City Council is concerned with the high cost of health insurance for

3. The supplemental benefit provided for by this resolution shall be a personal
benefit applicable to an eligible member only without any right of survivorship. Upon the
death of a member who is receiving such benefit, the monthly payment shall be made for the
month of such member's death and shall terminate with the next succeeding month.
4. The terms "beneficiary", "City of Roanoke Pension Plan", "creditable service",
"member", and "pension" shall have the meanings ascribed to them by §22.1-2, Code of the
City of Roanoke (1979), as amended. The word "employee" shall have the meaning ascribed
to it by §22.1-2 except as to persons employed by the City of Roanoke School Board who
are not eligible for the monthly supplement provided for by this Resolution.
5. The benefit provided by this resolution shall not be considered permanent, and
City Council reserves the right to amend the terms and conditions of this Resolution or to
repeal this benefit.
6. This Resolution shall be in full force and effect on and after July 1, 1998.

Dear Mayor Bowers and Members of City Council:
Subject:
BID COMMITTEE REPORT
FRANKLIN ROAD WATER MAIN REPLACEMENT
PROJECT NUMBER 6366
BID NUMBER 98-4-'15
Background on the subject in chronological order is as follows:
Bo
The 12 inch diameter water main located in Franklin Road between McClanahan
Street and Beechwood Road has had a history of breaks and leakage.
The existing water main was installed in the late 1940s and was constructed with
cast iron pipe that was prevalent in the post war era. The type and age of the pipe
now require that it be replaced.
The existing line is proposed to be replaced with a new 12 inch diameter main of
ductile iron. The 12 inch main is of sufficient capacity for the existing and anticipated
future land use in the corridor.
II.
Current situation is as follows:
Project for the water main replacement was advertised on Sunday, April 5. 1998, and
bids were publicly opened and read aloud by D. Darwin Roupe. Manager of SUp_Ply
Management, on Tuesday, April 21, 1998.
Five (5) bids were received for the project with J.P. Turner and Brothers,
Incorporated. 3862 Buck Mountain Road. P.O. Box 20041, Roanoke. Virginia 24018,
submitting the Iow bid in the amount of $595.140 for the contract.
Co
Franklin Road will be completely resurfaced by the contractor at the completion of
the water main construction. One half of the paving cost will be paid by the paving
program. This is estimated to be approximately $90,000.
D. The total construction cost of the project is estimated as follows:
Construction Contract
Contingency
City Engineering
$595,140
60,000
7.500
Total $662.640

III.
Issues in order of importance are as follows:
A. Cost
B. Funding
C. Schedule
IV.
Alternatives in order of feasibility are as follows:
Authorize the City Manager to execute a unit price contract, in a form approved by
the City Attorney, with J.P. Turner and Brothers, Incorporated, in the amount of
$595.140, with 180 calendar days for completion, with a project contingency of
$60,000, and an allowance to pay in house cost to City Engineering of $7.500.
1. Cost is 7.6% below the Engineer's estimate of $644,512.
Funding of $572,640 is available in Water Fund Retained Earnings and may
be appropriated in an account to be established by the Director of Finance.
Funding of $90,000 is available through the annual paving program to fund
costs of resurfacing Franklin Road.
Schedule for the project will be satisfied. The project will be completed by
the fall of 1998.
Do not authorize the City Manager to execute a contract with J.P. Turner and
Brothers, Incorporated.
1. Cost would be based on future bids.
Funding would remain in the Water Fund Retained Earnings and Paving
Program as specified above.
3. Schedule for the project will be delayed.
Recommendation is as follows:
City Council concur in alternative "A" and take the following:
Authorize the City Manager to execute a unit price contract, in a form approved by
the City Attorney, with J.P. Turner and Brothers, Incorporated, in the amount of
$595.140, with 180 calendar days for completion, with a project contingency of

Surplus City-owned Property
Mill Mountain Caretaker's House
Background in chronological order is as follows:
Ao
Caretaker's House for Mill Mountain Park was erected in 1973 for the use
of the full time resident Caretaker.
Bo
House is of modular construction and was purchased for $14,950. It is
approximately 900 square feet with two bedrooms, one bath, kitchen and
dining area, and living room.
C. House has been vacant and is in need of extensive maintenance.
II.
Current Situation is as follows:
House is no longer needed by the City as we no longer have a resident
Caretaker for Mill Mountain Park. It may be sold or otherwise disposed of
as surplus property. The real property will remain City property.
House has become a potential liability and maintenance issue for the City.
Also, the appearance of the house detracts from the rest of the Park.
Quotes were solicited from qualified house movers. House Movers of
Roanoke Valley, Inc. has offered the City $100.00 for the house.

removing the house, at purchaser's cost, from City property. If the house
cannot be sold and removed, to authorize the house to be sold to another
entity or demolished, as may be deemed appropriate by the City Manager
or his designee.
1. Need no longer exists for a Caretaker's house on Mill Mountain.
2. Cost to City will be zero.
3. Income to City will be $100.00.
Environmental Concern is that houses of this period may contain
asbestos. The house can be removed from the site intact, thus
eliminating the need for abatement.
Water Resources Committee does not recommend that City Council
declare the house as surplus and authorize the sale of the Caretaker's
House to House Movers of Roanoke Valley, Inc. for $100.00, or in the
alternative that the house be sold to another entity or demolished.
