It is anticipated that the only bid to be received will be from the United States Postal Service. Due to the time restraints placed on the United States Postal Service in vacating their existing space in the Poff Building and retrofitting the space at 101 Church Avenue, it is desirable that the Bid Committee report back to City Council prior to the end of the Council meeting on July 11, 1994. If you would ask the Bid Committee members to meet and report back to Council prior to the end of the Council meeting it would allow us to keep the project on schedule.

Do United States Postal Jervicq~ announced closing of the post office facility located in the Poff Btjilding in June, 1993. Eo "Request for Proposals" was advertised for a new downtown location on June 27, 1993, with a response deadline of July 23, 1993. Boundaries established were Jefferson St. (East), N/S Tracks (North), Elm Ave. (South) and 10th St. (West). Ed Hall Associates responded on behalf of First Union in an effort to sublease 101 Church Avenue.

STATE OF THE CITY 1994 VICE-MAYOR EDWARDS, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN: I am pleased to report for the second time that the State of our City is good. It is the tradition of Mayors, when giving this type of annual address, to look back at the accomplishments of the past year as well as put forward a new agenda for the next 12 months. It is with good reason that they always look back first. Like an individual or a business, a City government can learn a tremendous amount about its future direction by understanding its accomplishments and the elements that were important to its Success. Roanoke can take great pride in this past year's accomplishments. As I prepared for this speech by first outlining those accomplishments, I was amazed myself at the breadth and depth of things we succeeded at this year. 1 One badge of honor, which our Council and Administration can take significant pride in having achieved for the benefit of our City, was the re-affirmation by all three bond rating agencies -- Standard & Poors, Moody's, and Fitch -- of Roanoke's "Double AA" bond rating. This allowed the City to issue $35.8 million of bonds this past January with the lowest interest rate in 20 years. The rating reports stated that the City of Roanoke has: · a diverse economic base, · manageable debt levels, · financial operations consistently maintained, and · a stable outlook. That's a good report card for Roanoke. I don't believe there is any other accomplishment in the last two years which gives me a greater personal sense of pride than to know that, at age 42, I have been fortunate to serve in somewhat difficult and often stagnant economic times, as your Mayor of this municipal government, which continues to be fiscally responsible and stable, and yet continues to provide quality basic municipal services to our citizens. Nothing makes me more proud. To our Administrators -- thank you for that -- congratulations and keep up the good work. I want to touch on a few of this past year's achievements before proposing a major new initiative and making a major announcement...this afternoon. If we were not doing a good job in the day-to-day operations and conduct of our City, I would not be so bold to announce a new initiative. But look at the facts -- about our achievements in economic development, tourism, crime, schools and citizen involvement, and you will understand why we can, today, dream boldly about Roanoke's future. Let me start in the area of economic development. Among the highlights was the opening of the new Transkrit facility, the expansion of Orris and Vitramon, the relocation of Crouse Hinds, and the complete occupation by First Union of their space in the Tower with their move of over 250 Jobs into downtown Roanoke. Between April 1993 and April 1994, 5,500 new Jobs have been created in the Roanoke area. That many Jobs have not been created in a 12-month period since 1985. In fact, we were second in the Commonwealth in Job creation. Fortune magazine listed us as one of 3 the top ten lowest unemployment areas among metropolitan statistical areas in the entire country. Oh I know, the naysayers are going to say, but all those jobs created were low paying. Well, to them I say look at the facts. Manufacturing employment increased in the Valley by 3.7 per cent, or 700 jobs. That is two years in a row that manufacturing employment has increased. Tourism was another bright star for Roanoke this past year. Sporting events such as hockey, Amos Alonzo Stagg Bowl, Tour DuPont, Virginia Commonwealth Games and the Youth Soccer Tournament helped lead the way this past year. Visitors to our information center downtown continued to rise -- up 15 per cent between 1992 and 1993, our transient room tax increased by a healthy 31.1 per cent, our sales tax by 7.3 per cent, and attendees at conventions, trade and consumer shows by 20.7 per cent. May of this year saw more visitors to the downtown information center than any previous month since its opening in 1987, and even with the terrible weather this past winter, attendance is up from January through May over last year by 18 per cent. Meanwhile, our citizens are waiting with great anticipation for the opening of the Hotel Roanoke and Conference Center in nine months. The Hotel remains the "centerpiece" of our tourism initiative, and this Council has made sure it is underway. Council should also take great pride in its accomplishments of bringing local and minority participation into the construction of this 4 project in an unprecedented way. I think we will get quite a few visitors from cities around the country asking us how we achieved these levels of participation. Most importantly, the Hotel is receiving a great reception from meeting planners and associations. Already 26 groups have been booked definitely, representing approximately 17,629 conferees, with 12 tentative groups, representing another 5,676 conferees for 1995 and beyond. Our tourism initiative is truly beginning to "take off" into orbit! A topic on the minds of most Americans these days is crime. While no amount of crime is acceptable, Roanokers can take pride in the battle they are waging against it. Between 1992 and 1993, crime actually went down. Larceny was down almost 18 per cent, burglary was down over eight per cent, and rape -- over 30 per cent. In total offenses, crime went down 12.5 per cent. Add to these statistics the fact that there have been no homicides in Roanoke City since January 1, and you can appreciate the efforts being made. Certainly, Roanoke's approach toward fighting crime has played a major role in these statistics. This past year has brought us mounted police downtown, police on bikes in our neighborhoods, the continuation of the D.A.R.E. program, and perhaps, most importantly, the continuation and expansion of the C.O.P.E. Teams. 5 I am convinced our grass roots approach to fighting crime is correct, and the numbers bear me out. I would like to thank our dedicated police force for instituting these techniques and for the great job they do day in and day out. Any look back over the last 12 months would not be complete without talking about our schools. Roanoke has welcomed its new Superintendent of Schools, Wayne Harris, with open arms. He is off to a tremendous start, and we expect Roanoke to continue to have the finest school system in the country. We also expect and pledge that we will continue our highly successful efforts to renovate our school facilities -- six of seven elementary schools have already been rehabilitated. This renovation program will pay great dividends for our school system as well as to the stabilization of our neighborhoods for decades. It really has been a "BANNER YEAR" for Roanoke City Schools: Discipline and safety have been re-affirmed by a new parent-teacher-student commitment to appropriate behavior and good citizenship. Over $1.0 million has been received for the schools in human, financial and in-kind resources from our successful community partnerships. Roanoke City graduates have been accepted in some of the nation's finest colleges and universities, such as Princeton, Johns Hopkins, University of Virginia, Vanderbilt University, and the like. There are three National Merit Scholars, 11 Commended Scholars, 13 Distinguished Scholars, 134 Honor Scholars, and more than $1.0 million in scholarships awarded to this year's graduating class. The reason Roanoke continues to succeed in areas like economic development and in fighting crime is found in our approach to community relations. Roanoke has learned the fine art of citizen involvement. We have not only learned it, but we practice it every day of the year. The examples of Roanoke successfully working with citizens to solve problems or plan for the future are numerous. Whether it has been our downtown planning, vision processes, road projects like the Peters Creek Road extension and the Wells Avenue relocation, or social issues like our Community Relations Task Force, Task Force on Teen Pregnancy, or homelessness committee or task force on drugs and alcohol. I have bought today a book entitled, America's Downtowns, which lists Roanoke because of our excellent work in preservation and citizen involvement. The Virginian Pilot newspaper recently, decided to do a feature on successful citizen involvement around the country. They called Mr. Ken Thompson, a world renowned expert in this area and author of the book entitled, Rebirth of Urban America, and asked him to name some cities in the United States that the newspaper could visit and see firsthand how it works. He told the reporters they did not need to travel very far. He said Roanoke was one of the top ten cities in the entire country in terms of its successful implementation of citizen involvement in the everyday affairs of the City. As someone who has been a populist his entire adult life, I not only take great pride in the populist actions of this City, I take great comfort from the fact that citizen involvement has been institutionalized into the workings of our governance. Let me turn now from the past to our vision of the future. When John Edwards was on the campaign trail in the Council race this past spring, he released a plan for continued growth for Roanoke. The basis of this plan was the need to build on our strengths, our past successes and our history. The Vice-Mayor was absolutely right. In our current strengths and successes are the seeds of our future growth. Therefore, I am proposing a group of projects that we work on over the next 12 months that build on our past successes: I will call this initiative "The Downtown "R & R" Initiative", with "R & R" standing for re-creation and recreation. Downtown Roanoke, known as "everybody's neighborhood" is a unique jewel in this regional community. There are few cities our size -- or larger -- with as vibrant a downtown area. When I was in Portland, Oregon, last month for the National Conference of Mayors, I was impressed with that City's downtown... featuring new skyscrapers, downtown housing, trees and parks, pleasing streetscapes, preservation of their heritage and older bulldings...a vibrant downtown. Portland has been "re-creating" for 30 years, according to their local newspaper. Here in Roanoke, we began our downtown re- creating in 1979 -- Just 15 years ago. We can not be through yet. The Job is not completed. Re-creation must be continual and evolutionary. Now -- let me tell you a tale of two other cities -- Baltimore and New Orleans. They have both turned around decaying central cities by understanding that a critical mass -- an urban mix -- right in the heart of the city -- makes for a successful vibrant region. Both cities now understand the value of the second "R" -- recreation -- and how it is vital to downtown. Baltimore downtown has the combination of: B & O Museum · Inner Harbor · National Aquarium, and · Camden Yards New Orleans, which once only had the French Quarter as an attraction, also now has a critical mass: · Superdome · French Quarter · Streetcar & boat rides on the Mississippi · Riverfront Arcade · Jazz Museum · Aquarium Our destiny, Just as Portland, Baltimore and New Orleans, is for Roanoke to be "The Prominent Center" of our region. 10 That is the challenge, Ladies and Gentlemen, and, I submit -- the City of Roanoke will accept the challenge and take the lead. However, just as Explore Park -- which opened this past weekend after nine years of struggle -- Just as explore is and will be successful because of regionwide support -- Valley cooperation -- and joint responsibility -- Roanoke's effort to re-create and recreate downtown must have the same kind of regionalism. Indeed, Roanokers want the people of our region to take pride in and enjoy our safe, beautiful, vibrant, prominent center. We need their help -- and, today, we ask for it. Conceptually, today I am proposing "R & R" for downtown. With the City Market bustling with activity -- let us look west and north in the area I call "West Jeff" -- west of Jefferson Street -- and Henry Street Gainsboro -- the area around our renovated Hotel. Let us re-create these areas and enhance downtown with recreation. Let us encourage retail development in "West Jeff" again and let us expand and enhance our State Transportation Museum -- and tie it directly into the Hotel Roanoke two blocks away. have several specific recommendations for you today. ll First, now that the Hotel Roanoke project is well on its way, we need to identify the next major community project that will build upon the success of the Hotel and enhance Roanoke's image as a destination place for visitors. We need to develop an attraction that will support the continued revitalization of the City Market area, the Center In The Square, and the Hotel Roanoke. Such a project needs to be national in its scope and should be based on a theme that is indigenous to this area. With this as background, I am announcing today that the State Tourism office, in cooperation with representatives from the new Nauticus facility in downtown Norfolk and from the Walt Disney Company will be meeting with a group of Roanokers in the next several weeks to begin brainstorming and defining the nature of such a project. We welcome Disney to Roanoke. The expectation is that such a facility will be based on our rail heritage. Our hope is to elevate the planning on a transportation museum facility to an interactive attraction that will be grand enough in scope to become a destination attraction, bringing hundreds of thousand of visitors to Roanoke. We need to develop an interactive facility that appeals to the families of the 1990's and beyond. Let me take you on a stroll through the kind of facility I envision. I can imagine entering our virtual reality theatre at this facility and hopping aboard an old passenger train and being whisked back to the 1800's. Bank robbers are after the gold this train is carrying, and they are in hot pursuit. I am the engineer on the train. I am giving instructions to my fellow railroad workers hoping we can escape. Right about the time the robbers are about to catch the train -- WHOOSH! -- we enter a tunnel cut through a mountain. Just in the nick of time. We've lost the train robbers for now. I come out of this theatre and run quickly to catch a real train that is about to leave a station. This train travels in a ten mile loop around the Valley giving people a true railroad experience. I then come back to this facility and successfully talk a ten year old boy into letting me play the computer game he has been playing for the last 30 minutes. In control of this computer game, I am working hard to apply the brakes so that train does not fall over the cliff that is straight ahead. Ladies and Gentlemen, that is the vision of a first class, interactive tourist facility. That is a vision of Roanoke's future. Therefore, my first recommendation today is that we spend the necessary money this year to begin the planning for this world- class attraction. In order to have this kind of attraction, this region may have to spend tens of millions of dollars. It's going 13 to take the kind of public/private partnership we experienced with the Hotel Roanoke project. There will be a thousand details to work out. But, together, I believe Roanoke can achieve this vision. Secondly, let us build the "Railwalk" from the Market to the Museum -- creating strong pedestrian walkways has always been a part of Roanoke's downtown planning. With Design '79, came the plan to create a visible walkway from Elmwood Park to the City Market Building to the Hotel Roanoke. With the completion of the pedestrian bridge over the railroad tracks this year, that planning idea will be complete. I believe there is an equally impor, tant pedestrian link we must now turn our attention to. That is the need to connect the City Market area in the same kind of strong visible way to the current Transportation Museum, the West Jeff commercial area, and the future national destination facility I discussed earlier. Come with me on a trip to the future one more time. I have played with that computer game I spoke of earlier as long as the kids will let me. I have decided to stroll along the Rallwalk to the City Market area to get a bite to eat. Along the way, I stop to listen to a group of entertainers imitating the old Gandy Dancers and singing to a group of visitors who have stopped to listen. I continue my walk until I get seated at a sidewalk cafe located within view of 14 the railroad tracks. As a train goes by, I lift my glass of non- alcoholic beverage as if to signal cheers and the engineer on the train toots his horn as if to signal cheers back to me. My second recommendation to you today is to move the planning of this Railwalk up to coincide with the planning on our national, interactive Rail Park and Museum. Thirdly, NORTH JEFFERSON STREET. Planning for the use of those buildings along North Jefferson Street across from the Hotel Roanoke must also move forward this year. Creative solutions for the reuse of these old buildings or the property they sit on must be developed. Whether it is the use of that area as a Higher Education Complex built around the success of the continuing education component of the Conference Center of Roanoke, or some other equally beneficial use, we must proceed. Therefore, I am recommending that the City Manager bring us some alternatives for that area and Henry Street this year. Finally, in the spirit of Roanoke, let us make this truly a regional collaborative effort. In addition to the Doubletree hotel staff, Downtown Roanoke, Incorporated, staff, Virginia Tech, Gainsboro leaders, Former Mayor Taylor and the Henry Street Committee and others who are already vitally interested in downtown... 15 Let us also seek support from our State legislators -- we need more State dollars for the Transportation Museum -- other local governments whose citizens work and visit downtown. Let us get the D-Day Committee involved to build their national monument downtown. Let us get together to tear down the remaining portion of the viaduct -- bring back downtown cinemas -- and develop tasteful, exciting public art. Let us work together for a downtown connection to Explore Park, Mill Mountain Zoo and the Julian Wise National EMS/Rescue Museum. Let us do what Roanoke always does best: WORK TOGETHER! And let our Joint goal be an exciting prominent center that all of southwest Virginia will be proud of. I can not take credit for all of this "Grand Idea". Bob Herbert and I have made a good team. Sometimes I have had an idea -- and he expanded on it. Often, in the evolution of this initiative, it has been his "Good Idea", and I would expand on it. Together, Bob and I have dreamed this dream. We have been a "Dream Team". He is ready -- this is the take off -- and with your concurrence in my request to refer this "R & R" initiative to the City Manager, we will begin...todaylZ! 16 Finally, allow me to thank our citizens for the privilege to serve our City as Mayor. The Irish have a saying: COUNT YOUR BLESSINGS! In every personal, professional, or political tribulation that I face in my life -- I keep coming back to that...and so should our citizens. Channel 7's Irv Sharp, who died earlier this year, used to say that on his broadcast every morning. To paraphrase him: ROANOKE... COUNT YOUR BLESSINGS... YOU'VE GOT A MILLION OF THEM! 17 MARY F.

The boys most often do their col- lecting rounds on weekends -- and admittedly, Joseph is more the pack mule than the others -- and sort and crush during the week. Typically, Joseph says, they'll pull in about $10 to $15 every couple of weeks. Some of that goes toward overhead -- bags, mostly -- and debt service on items like can crushers and the red wagon.

Bowers, Mayor and Members of Council Roanoke, Virginia Dear Members of Council: A letter from Mayor David A. Bowers was before City Council on May 2, 1994 requesting input from the City Manager as to the necessary steps to be followed to ensure that an interstate connector will be built to link Interstate 581 to Interstate 73. On December 13, 1993, City Council passed Resolution No. 31794-121393 which requested the Virginia Department of Transportation to conduct a corridor study on U.S. Route 220 from Interstate 581 to the North Carolina state line for the purpose of developing a specific plan and schedule for needed improvements. Other localities along the U.S. Route 220 corridor made similar requests of VDOT. Accordingly, VDOT has now included in its revised Six-Year Plan, $100~000 for a corridor study to determine the feasibility of improving Route 220 from Roanoke to Martinsville. In a similar yet separate effort through the U.S. House of Representatives surface transportation subcommittee, legislation was proposed in May, 1994 for $5 million for initial planning and engineering of a new "interstate-quality" highway as part of the National Highway System. This highway, which would improve existing U.S. Route 220 between Roanoke and Greensboro is referred to as Interstate 83. This legislation has now passed the House of Representatives, and awaits U.S. Senate action which could occur as early as this Summer, or be postponed until 1995. The VDOT advises the City that no further action is needed by the City at this time. VDOT understands our interest and will keep us advised as this study progresses. Council will be advised in the future if further action is needed. Please let me know any questions or concerns you may have related to this matter. Sincerely, W.

I was very pleased, as I am sure you all were, that the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) and the majority of our Virginia Congressional delegation have now joined with Governor Alien in proposing that the route come through Montgomery County, along the proposed Smart Road, and then southward through Franklin County to the Martinsville area to connect with the route in North Carolina. This is a very good route and it will mean that Roanoke will be, at least, very near to a north/south interstate running from Detroit to Myrtle Beach. This is what the citizens of our City want. I would like to point out to you that the route will be se~'eral miles outside of the City of Roanoke. Accordingly, I believe it is appropriate to begin the process to make sure that an interstate connector be built from Interstate 581 to Interstate 73 southwest of the City. In the spirit of "valley cooperation" and "regionalism," I wanted us, at Roanoke City Council, to ask our administration for their advice as to how to proceed in dealing with our neighboring jurisdictions, VDOT, and others concerned about how we can best proceed to make sure that there is this direct link between the City and the proposed Interstate 73 route southwest of Roanoke. I respectfully request that this letter be placed on the Consent Agenda for the next regular meeting of Roanoke City Council on Monday, May 2, 1994, and thereafter be referred to the administration for appropriate response back to Council within 90 days.

IN THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ROANOKE, VIRGINIA, The llth day of July, 1994. No. 32091-071194. A RESOLUTION authorizing the City Manager to enter into a contract with Towers Perrin to provide professional services in connection with the exploration of regional approaches to governmental service delivery. BE IT RESOLVED by the Council of the City of Roanoke as follows: 1. The City Manager and the City Clerk shall be authorized to execute and attest, respectively, a contract with Towers Perrin for the provision by such firm of professional services in connection with the exploration of regional approaches to governmental service delivery. 2. The maximum compensation payable to Towers Perrin by the City under the contract authorized by this resolution shall be $7.000.00. 3. Attorney. The form of the contract shall be approved by the City ATTEST: City Clerk. Office of the City Manager July 11, 1994 Honorable Mayor and Member of Roanoke City Council Roanoke, Virginia Dear Mayor Bowers and Members of Council: I forwarded a communication to City Council on December 10, 1993, detailing the status of the process undertaken by Roanoke Valley governments to explore regional approaches to governmental service delivery (copy attached). After Council received this communication, a letter was sent to the Towers Perrin consulting firm by a planning group representing the valley governments requesting that the firm provide assistance in identifying those services that could be provided regionally (copy attached). A response has been received from Towers Perrin and is attached for your review. Please note that the estimated cost of their assistance is $25,000 to $30,000, which exceeds the planning group's requested budget of $15,000. However, I am comfortable with their recommended approach to assisting the planning group, and do not feel that the proposed budget for their services is exorbitant. I believe that it is necessary for the City to continue to participate in this process to pursue what I understand to be City Council's desire to identify a package of potential services that, if provided regionally, would meet the needs of the region and be socially responsible to our own citizens. I am therefore asking that you concur in the following: Authorize the City Manager to approve on the City's behalf a contractual agreement with Towers Perrin to provide the planning assistance outlined in the attached letter; and Authorize the City Manager to expend up to an amount equivalent to the City's pro rata share (based on population) of half of the proposed budget for the consultant to fund the contractual agreement. I estimate the City's share to be less than $7,000. The business community is proposed to fund half of the cost of the study, and local governments are proposed to fund the remaining half on a pro rata share basis. Thank you for your assistance in this matter. Please contact me at your convenience if you' have questions or concerns in this regard. Room 364 Municipal Building 215 Church Avenue, S.W.

Parker, City Clerk Barry L. Key, Manager, Management and Budget Office of the City Manager December 10, 1993 The Honorable David A. Bowers, Mayor and Members of Roanoke City Council Roanoke, Virginia 24011 Dear Mayor Bowers and Members of Council: At the most recent meeting of the Roanoke Valley governments regarding exploring regional approaches to governmental service delivery, I was assigned the responsibility by Delegate Vic Thomas to draft a request for proposal that would enable the Roanoke Valley governments to begin to further explore how we might pursue these ideas on a businesslike basis. ! would like Council to know that I was accompanied in this discussion byCouncilmen Edwards and McCadden. Attached is the next formal and public step that the five government administrators have agreed to pursue. The attached letter is self-explanatory, and any work done on behalf of the five Roanoke Valley governments would be shared by each government on the basis of one-fifth of the cost not to exceed $3,000 per local government. ! believe this next step reflects Roanoke City Council's consensus that we should pursue a package of potential services that would both meet the needl of the region and be socially responsible to our own citizens. This letter and the attached document is for your information and no public action is necessary. Please know that I have discussed this matter with Mayor Bowers before releasing the request for proposal. Please call me if you have any questions or comments regarding the attached.

Evans, Vice-President Towers Perrin/Cresap 1001 19th Street North Rosslyn, Virginia 22209-1722 Dear Mr. Evans: A planning group representing the local governments in the Roanoke Valley has been formed to discuss and explore regional approaches to governmental service delivery. The planning group includes elected and administrative officials representing the City of Roanoke, City of Salem, County of Botetourt, County of Roanoke and Town of Vinton. The planning group has determined that services which could be provided regionally and meet one or more of the following criteria should then be reviewed in more detail: Services which would positively impact growth in the local tax base and help to create jobs, thereby enhancing the region's fiscal condition; Services which would represent a regional approach to sharing the region's social responsibilities; and Services which could be provided more effectively and efficiently on a regional basis. The following services have been identified as calndidates for further review; however, the planning group is open to the consideration of other services that meet the stated criteria: · · · · · · · Sewer and water utilities Solid waste collection and disposal Public transportation Public health Public housing Social services Economic development and tourism We are writing to request your assistance in furthering our planning group's efforts by .providing the following professional services: Room 304 Mun~ol:x~l Building 21 .~ Churc~n Avenue, S.W Roanoke.

Evans December 10, 1993 Page Two Conduct a general overview of the various services provided by each local government represented in our planning group; Develop a tentative list of services that should be considered as candidates for regionalization based on the planning group's three criteria; For each candidate service, conduct additional research and study necessary to understand the service mission, goals and objectives, and the context within which the service is provided in each locality; Identify opportunities for service regionalization as well as barriers to service regionalization; and Recommend in some type of priority order those services that could be provided regionally and deserve more detailed study. If you are interested in providing 'this assistance, please forward your proposal by December 31, 1993 to W. Robert Herbert, City Manager, 215 W. Church Avenue, Room 364, Roanoke, Virginia 24011. This proposal should include at a minimum the following information: Detailed outline of your proposed work plan giving a description of what would be achieved in each phase of your plan, how it would be achieved and the estimated time frame for each phase; Identification of the specific members of your firm who will be assigned to work on this project (including a brief resume on each) and what their individual responsibilities will be; and A sample contract you would propose for the project. The planning group will require five (5) printed copies of your final recommendations. The cost of this initial study must not exceed the dollar cost limit established under Commonwealth of Virginia procurement regulations governing professional services acquired without competitive negotiation, that being Fifteen Thousand Dollars ($15,000).

Moreover, Towers Perrin would be well-qualified to assist your group, given our extensive experience in assessing local government operations. After careful consideration, however, we have concluded that we could not provide meaningful assistance as outlined in your letter within a $15,000 budget. The most cost effective approach to a "reconnaissance' review of collaboration opportunities would involve five steps: An initial data request to each local government covering basic operating and service data for major departments; A preliminary analysis of this data to develop profiles of major departments and to highlight possible areas of collaboration; A one-day series of interviews in each municipality that would include discussions with the senior administrative officials, senior elected officials, and leaders of major operating departments; A synthesis of the data and interviews into preliminary conclusions regarding areas of opportunity and priorities for further attention and study; Mr. Elmer C. Hodge February 21, 1994 Page 2. Towers Perrin A working session with members of the planning group to present preliminary findings, and to discuss next steps. Such an approach would, we believe, provide valuable insights to your group at a minimal cost. Even so, the costs of such an approach would be $25,000 to $30,000. I regret that we are not able to meet your objectives within the cost constraints outlined. Given the importance and complexity of the issues involved, we encourage you to consider a more substantial investment in initial research. Please call me if you would like to discuss this matter further. Bi~ G. Evans Vice President MARY F.

ATTEST: City Clerk. Honorable Mayor and Member of Roanoke City Council Roanoke, Virginia Dear Mayor Bowers and Members of Council: Subject: Recommended Capital Improvement Program July 11, 1994 II. Background is as follows: ho City Council received a communication from Mayor Bowers entitled "Capital Improvement Program Development Process" on June 10, 1994. This communication detailed the sequence of events that must take place in order that City Council might (1) adopt a new capital improvement program to be partially funded with general obligation bonds and (2) hold a voter referendum (special election) on the issuance of these bonds in connection with the November 8, 1994 general election. City Council adopted this schedule at its regular meeting on Monday, June 13th. The approved schedule requires City Council to adopt a resolution at today's regular City Council meeting to accomplish the following: Endorse and concur in certain capital improvement projects recommended for funding by the City Manager through the issuance of general obligation bonds; Establish the intent of City Council to issue general obligation bonds to fund the recommended projects in part, subject to voter approval; Authorize the holding of a bond referendum (special election) on Tuesday, November 8, 1994; and Authorize the City Attorney to advertise a public hearing regarding the issuance of bonds on August 8, 1994. Current situation is as follows: City Council held a public workshop on Tuesday, July 5th to receive information from City staff' on the capital improvement program, and discuss same. At the same meeting, Council reaffirmed its intent to follow the capital improvement program development process schedule adopted on June 13th. Bo City Council then referred to the City Manager a request to recommend those capital improvement projects to be funded through the issuance of general obligation bonds for consideration at its regular meeting today. Co A summary of the recommended capital improvement projects requested by City Council is attached (see Attachment A). III. Issues, in order of importance, are: A. Capital improvement needs of the City B. Affordability C. Timing IV. Alternatives are: A. City Council approve the attached resolution to accomplish the following: Endorse and concur in certain capital improvement projects recommended for funding by the City Manager through the issuance of general obligation bonds; Establish the intent of City Council to issue $23,000,000 in general obligation bonds on or after January 1, 1996, to fund the recommended projects in part, subject to voter approval; Authorize the holding of a bond referendum (special election) on Tuesday, November 8, 1994; and Authorize the City Attorney to advertise a public hearing regarding the issuance of bonds on August 8, 1994. Capital improvement needs of the City - The highest priority capital improvement needs of the City would be met, based on application of the project selection criteria reviewed with City Council. ° Affordability - The $23,000,000 general obligation bond issue is affordable within existing financial resources of the City. No tax increase is anticipated to support the proposed bond issue. o Timing - Adoption of the resolution at today's regular City Council meeting will allow the bond referendum to take place on Tuesday, November 8th. B. City Council approve the attached resolution but increase the recommended amount of the bond issue in $1,000,000 increments. Capital improvement needs of the City - The highest priority capital improvement needs of the City would be met with a $23,000,000 bond issue, based on application of the project selection criteria reviewed with City Council. Increasing the amount of the recommended $23,000,000 bond issue would allow the funding of other projects in addition to those recommended by the City Manager. Affordability - Each $1,000,000 increase in the amount of the general obligation bond issue will cost approximately $100,000 in additional debt service annually. Additional funding resources would have to be identified to effect such an increase in the amount of the bond issue. Timing - Adoption of the resolution at today's regular City Council meeting will allow the bond referendum to take place on Tuesday, November 8th. C. City Council not approve the attached resolution to accomplish the following: Endorse and concur in certain capital improvement projects recommended for funding by the City Manager through the issuance of general obligation bonds, as summarized in Attachment A; Establish the intent of City Council to issue $23,000,000 in general obligation bonds on or after January 1, 1996, to fund the recommended projects in part, subject to voter approval; Authorize the holding of a bond referendum (special election) on Tuesday, November 8, 1994; and Authorize the City Attorney to advertise a public hearing regarding the issuance of bonds on August 8, 1994. Capital improvement needs of the City - The highest priority capital improvement needs of the City would not be met, based on application of the project selection criteria reviewed with City Council. Affordability - The $23,000,000 general obligation bond issue remains affordable within existing financial resources of the City. IV. Timing - Failure to adopt the resolution at today's regular City Council meeting will require that City Council take action at a special meeting of City Council on or before July 20, 1994, in order for the bond referendum to take place on Tuesday, November 8th.

Bowers, Mayor and Members of City Council Roanoke, Virginia Dear Mayor Bowers and Council Members: SUBJECT: Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act (ISTEA) Safety Improvement Program - Project Resolutions I. Backqround: Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act (ISTEA) was signed into federal law in December 1991. ISTEA requires state departments for transportation to set aside a minimum of 10 percent of The Surface Transportation Program (STP) allocation each year to be used for "hazard elimination" and "rail/highway grade crossings." Fundinq participation for approved projects is 90 percent federal and 10 percent local. Regular urban highway allocations may be used to provide 98 percent of the 10 percent local matching funds, with the locality providing the other 2 percent. This effectively means that the locality only needs to provide 0.2 percent in local funding. Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) provided project application forms to all localities in late December 1993. Applications for the following three (3) projects were subsequently submitted to VDOT by the City: Old Mountain Road/Nelms Lane~ N. E.~ intersection - widen pavement and improve alignment of Nelms Lane. King Street/Berkley Road~ N. E., intersection - improve sight distance by widening King Street. Albemarle Avenue~ S. E.~ railroad grade crossinq - upgrade flashing lights and add gates, east of Williamson Road. Projects were selected by staff based upon site review, reported accident history, and citizen complaints. Mayor Bowers and Council Members Page 2 II. Current Situation: ae VDOT has approved all three (3) Roanoke City project applications. Funding will be authorized by VDOT upon receipt of resolutions from City Council for each project. Local share of cost is estimated at a total of $578 for all three projects as described in Attachment I. City of Roanoke will provide project design, right-of-way acquisition, and construction administration, all of which are project eligible costs. Co Norfolk & Western Railroad also had its request to add gates at the railroad crossing on Bridge Street, S. W., approved by VDOT. No City funding or resolution is required for this project. III. Issues: A. Safety B. Fundinq C. Timinq IV. Alternatives: ao City Council request by three (3) separate resolutions that VDOT program the three (3) safety projects as urban highway projects, as described in Attachment I. 1. Safety of each project location will improve. Fundinq in the amount of $578 will need to be transferred to project accounts at a later date for right-of-way and construction phases. City will front-fund expenditures and then be reimbursed by VDOT. Timinq for project engineering can begin as soon as VDOT receives the project resolutions. City Council not approve resolutions that VDOT program the three (3) safety projects as urban highway projects, as described in Attachment I. Mayor Bowers and Council Members Page 3 1. Safety of each project location will not improve. 2. Funding is not needed at this time. 3. Timinq is not an issue. Vo Recommendation is that City Council approve Alternative "A" and: Request by three (3) separate resolutions that VDOT program the three (3) safety projects as urban highway projects, as described in Attachment I. Indicate that, if the City cancels one or more of these projects in the future for any reason, the City would pay 100 percent of all costs associated with any work completed on the cancelled project between time of programming and the cancellation notice.

A RESOLUTION authorizing the execution of Change Order No. 3 to the City's contract with Mattem & Craig, Inc., for additional engineering services in connection with the Carvins Cove Filter Plant Improvements, Phase I. BE IT RESOLVED by the Council of the City of Roanoke that: 1. The City Manager or the Assistant City Manager is hereby authorized to execute for and on behalf of the City, upon form approved by the City Attorney, Change Order No. 3 to the City's contract with Mattem & Craig, Inc., Consulting Engineers, dated September 3, 1991, in order to provide for additional engineering services related to the Carvins Cove Filter Plant Improvemems, Phase I. 2. Such amendment shall provide for services as set forth in the City Manager's report to this Council dated July 11, 1994 and the cost of these additional services shall not exceed $18,400.00 with the total contract amount not to exceed $2,002,564.89.

Roanoke, Virginia July 11, 1994 Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council Roanoke, Virginia Dear Members of Council: SUBJECT: CHANGE ORDER NO. 3 PROFESSIONAL SERVICES MATTERN & CRAIG, INC. PROFESSIONAL SERVICES FOR CARVINS COVE FILTER PLANT IMPROVEMENTS, PHASE I I. Backqround of this project is as follows: ae City Council, at the August 26, 1991 meeting, approved an engineering services contract with Mattern & Craig, Inc., and Alvord, Burdick and Howson, as their consultants, in the total amount of $1,969,400.00. Bo Chanqe Order No. 1 was approved by City Council on February 22, 1993, for design work required to comply with the 1993 Soil Erosion and Control Regulations and other work. The fee for this additional design was $14,764.89, which increases the total engineering services contract to $1t984,164.89. Chanqe Order No. 2 was approved by City Council on April 12, 1993, for design of the chemical feed to be moved to the intake structure and the required chemical feed controls. The fee for this additional design was $48,100.00, but it did not increase the total engineering services contract since it was funded within the original contract contingency. II. Current situation is as follows: ao The following list of revisions/additions need to be accomplished to complete the remodeling of the plant. This work was not covered in the original contract to be sure the contract price was within budget. At this stage of the project it has been established that funding is available in the contractor's fee for "additional work required during the time of construction", administra- tively controlled. Contract documents need to be generated so this work can be bid as a separate contract. Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council RE: CHANGE ORDER NO. 3 CARVINS COVE FILTER PLANT July 11, 1994 Page 2 of 5 Bo The followinq chanqes/additions to the construction contract are recommended for approval along with the estimated cost: 1. Replace 33 4-way filter valves: $ 29~210.84 The original 27 valves installed in 1945 have been replaced in the original contract. It has been determined that the remaining 33 valves should also be replaced. 2. Replace the 2~" header at the 1954 filter: $ 11~398.12 The 1944 galvanized header pipe was already replaced. The present 1954 pipe header is filling up with internal build-up and should be replaced. It will eventually have to be replaced. Replace 7~000 feet of small piping for filter operations with copper pipe: $ 58~637.88 There are seven of these old galvanized pipes at each filter operation station. In all there is approximately 7,500 feet of pipe to be replaced. Items 1, 2 and 3 all relate to filter controls for backwashing. 4. Paint exterior of Administration Building: $ 14~379.00 This was done several years ago and is not specified in the present contract but will be required before too much longer. Paint inside the Administration Building on areas not specified to be painted under this contract: $ 5~000.00 Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council RE: CHANGE ORDER NO. 3 CARVINS COVE FILTER PLANT July 11, 1994 Page 3 of 5 Only the spaces being remodeled and added are specified to be painted at this time.

(See attached letter from Mattern & Craig, Inc.) Funding is available in the original engineering services contract contingency account. III. Issues in order of importance are: A. Engineering concerns B. Funding of the additional work C. Time of completion IV. Alternatives are as follows: ae Approve the issuance of Change Order No. 3 to the contract with Mattern & Craig, Inc., P.C., to prepare contract documents for the work detailed under II.B above, assist the City in advertising the work as a separate contract and supervising the work for the sum of $18~400.00 and two months working time. Engineering concerns would be met in that this work would be performed now. Funding for Mattern & Craig's engineering services is available in the construction unit price funds in the General Contractor's Construction Account. 3. Time of completion of the work in six to seven months is acceptable. Be Do not approve the issuance of Change Order No. 3 to the contract with Mattern & Craig, Inc., for additional engineering services. Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council RE: CHANGE ORDER NO. 3 CARVINS COVE FILTER PLANT July 11, 1994 Page 5 of 5 Engineering concerns would not be completed at this time. However, the plant expansion could be placed on line as soon as the present contractor completes the contract. Funding for engineering services would not change. (Neither would construction unit price money be encumbered at this time.) Time of completion would be extended if this work is done at a later date. Recommendation is that City Council take the following action: A. Concur with the implementation of Alternative "A". Authorize the City Manager to issue Change Order No. 3 to the contract with Mattern & Craig, Inc., in the amount of $18~400.00 and two months time to provide contract documents for the items listed in II-B above and to bid as a separate contract.

Dear Bane: We have reviewed what is available on the drawings, and in general, we expect to have to really modify quite a number of drawings to be able to effectively show the work to people who know nothing of the plant layout and the nature of the work. Some of the items are specified and not really shown except schematically. This will have to be enhanced to make the conditions clear for this new bidding process. We also will have to prepare a spec book and bid documents just for this work, and it covers many sections because the work is so varied and involves many spec divisions. We have to create documents to put the new contractor under contract with its own conditions and damages, completely independent of the existing contract with Crowder. The design, bid documents, and construction administration will have an engineering fee of $18,400..1 We can begin work immediately on your authorization and expect document preparation will take one month. Bidding and award will take two months, 1, Manhour estimates, task lists, and costs are attached. K: \MRH\7100-0. 701 First Street, S.W.

There is a concern that this contractor may still be onsite when Crowder is gone, and that the exterior painting can be authorized before cold weather. We have not included the boiler replacement. We checked with AB&H (Stan Church) and he said last winter was not a good gauge of the boiler capacity. Enclosed sketches show pre-project heating, and post-project heating. Last winter, the basement, first and second floor of the administration building, and the new units in filter gallery were all connected. The filter gallery was a new load that overloaded the boiler. When the project is done, the boiler will only serve the basement and the filter gallery. The first floor and second floor will be heated by new gas fired, roof top units. Therefore, the boiler will have no more load on it than before the project started. Plus, the heat exchanger units will only draw heat when each unit calls for it. They do not all draw heat simultaneously. If you have any questions, please call. Very truly yours, MATTERN & CRAIG Stewart W. Hubbell SWH/mrh Encl: As noted K: \MRH\ 7100- 0.1 MARY F.

ATTEST: City Clerk. Roanoke, Virginia July 1 l, 1994 The Honorable Mayor and City Council Roanoke, Virginia Dear Members of Council: SUBJECT: BIDS ON LONG DISTANCE TELEPHONE SERVICE BID NUMBER 94-3-87 BACKGROUND Long Distance Telephone Service currently is being provided by AT&T with no long term commitment. Bo Long Distance Telephone Service was evaluated by the Communications Department to determine if savings can be achieved. Atter comparison of billing per minute it was evident that substantial savings could be realized through competitive bids. Specifications were developed and along with a request for quotations were sent to nine (9) long distance service providers. The bid for long distance service was publicly advertised in the Roanoke Times and World News and Roanoke Tribune. Bids were received, after due and proper advertisement for Long Distance Telephone Service, until 2:00 PM, April 20, 1994, at which time the bids were publicly opened and read in the office of the Manager of General Services. Bid tabulations are attached. CURRENT SITUATION All bids received, were evaluated in a consistent manner by the following evaluation committee: Mr. George C. Snead, Director, Public Safety Mr. D. Darwin Roupe, Manager, General Services Mr. Robert J. Agnor, Manager, Communications Mr. Ronald L. Wade, Superintendent, Communications Ms. Robyn T. Yates, Communications Specialist, Communications PAGE 2 THE HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL LONG DISTANCE SERVICE B. Bid Evaluations 1H. ISSUES Long distance Telephone Service as follows: Long Distance Telephone Service - The lowest bid meeting all required specifications was Telstar Long Distance. By contracting for a twenty four (24) month period from signing, the City of Roanoke can obtain long distance service for 12.7 cents per minute which is substantial savings fi-om our current per minute cost of approximately 38 cent per minute. The City and Schools will save approximately $59,000 per year based on last years calling pattern. Quality of service will not be affected. AT&T's bid did not meet specifications of fiat rate per minute, regardless of called location. AT&Ts quoted rate of $. 117 is computed, based upon discounts provided at the end of contract periods. Peak hour interstate rate (lOver 926 Miles) is $.196. Also, AT&T did not meet specifications on the termination clause. If we terminated the UNI-Plan we would have to subscribe with another AT&T long distance plan. A. Cost savings B. Quality_ of service C. Bid specifications ALTERNATIVES Authorize the City Manager to execute appropriate documents to subscribe to Long Distance Service provided by Telstar Long Distance for a period of twenty four (24) months with an option to extend for renewal of service at one year increments with the same or lesser rate per minute. PAGE 3 THE HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL LONG DISTANCE SERVICE Cost savings in the amount of approximately $59,000 per year will commence within sixty (60) days upon service being made available and has been anticipated in FY 94/95 adopted budget. 2. Quality of service would not be affected. Bid specifications will be met, which reflect the City's needs for billing with individual employee accountability, and other desired features. Do not authorize the City Manager to execute appropriate documents to subscribe to long distance service provided by Telstar Long Distance for a period of twenty four (24) months with an option to emend for renewal of service at one year increments with the same or lesser rate per minute. Cost savings would not be realized under this alternative and FY 94/95 budget would be negatively impacted. 2. Quality of service will not be affected. Bid specifications reflect the needs of City government, and without these needs would not be met. RECOMMENDATION City Council concur in Alternative "A" to authorize the City Manager to execute appropriate documents to subscribe to long distance service provided by Telstar Long Distance for a period of twenty four (24) months with an option to extend for renewal of service at one year increments with the same or lesser rate per minute. The City Attorney shall approve as to form all documents to such Long Distance Service. PAGE 4 HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL LONG DISTANCE SERVICE Respectfully submitted, W.

TALEVI KATHLEEN MARIE KRONAU GLADYS L. YATES ASSISTANT CITY ATTORNEYS The Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council Roanoke, Virginia Re: Parking in Spaces Reserved for Persons with Disabilities Dear Mrs. Bowles and Gentlemen: As you know, State law generally takes precedence over local ordinances, and this Office attempts to monitor legislation enacted by each Session of the General Assembly which would require amendment of the Code of the City of Roanoke (1979), as amended ("City Code"). Senate Bill 564 (Amendment in the Nature of a Substitute) enacted by the 1994 Session requires that §20-76 of the City Code, relating to parking in spaces reserved for persons with disabilities, be conformed to new provisions of the State Code. The required amendments are summarized as follows: 1. References to "handicapped" are changed to "disabled"; 2. References to "license plates, decals or special parking permits" for handicapped persons are changed to "disabled parking license plates, organizational removable windshield placards, permanent removable windshield placards, or temporary removable windshield placards" and "DV disabled parking license plates"; 3. The manner in which organizational removable windshield placards, permanent removable windshield placards and temporary removable windshield placards shall be displayed is designated; 4. The City Code is conformed to the State Code providing that persons with disabilities may park up to four hours (formerly an unlimited period of time) in parking zones restricted as to length of time parking is permitted; and 5. Motor vehicles used to transport persons with disabilities and displaying proper identification issued by other states and countries are accorded all rights and privileges accorded to vehicles displaying such devices in Virginia. The Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council July 11, 1994 Page 2 I am pleased to recommend the foregoing amendments to you. I am also pleased to advise you that the recommended ordinance has been reviewed and approved by the President of the Mayor's Committee for the Disabled (see attached letter) and is also recommended by the Chief of Police. Should the members of City Council have any questions with respect to this matter, I will be pleased to address them.

TALEVI KATHLEEN MARIE KRONAU GLADYS L. YATES ASSISTANT CITY AI'I'ORNEYS The Honorable Mayor and Members Roanoke City Council Roanoke, VA Barry W. Mills, Jr. v. Botetourt County Sheriffs Department, et al. Marvin E. Whittington v. Officer K.E. Criner, et al. Dear Mayor Bowers and Members of Council: The purpose of this letter is to advise Council of the results of two excessive force law suits which have gone to trial in federal court in the last two months. The first case ~ Mills. Jr.. v. Botetourt County Sheriffs Department. et ak was brought by a prisoner who alleged that he had been assaulted by five Roanoke City police officers and two state troopers when he was arrested in 1991. The arrest occurred at the conclusion ora high-speed motor vehicle pursuit which averaged over seventy miles per hour and involved significant risk of bodily injury or even death to all of the participants. The piaintiffsuffered various facial injuries, including the loss of a front tooth. In his Complaint, plaintiff requested damages in the amount of $750,000.00 from each of the seven defendants. This office represented the five City police officers at their request, and the case was tried before a jury. After a day and a half of testimony, the judge ruled that the plalntiffhad not presented sufficient evidence against the five City police officers for the case to be decided by the jury. Accordingly, the court dismissed the complaint against the five officers and one of the state troopers. (The jury later exonerated the seventh defendant, another state trooper.) Plaintiff in the Mills case did not file an appeal, and this litigation is concluded. The other case is styled Marvin E. Whittin~on v. Office K. E. Criner. et al. Plaintiff sued three City police officers for $180,000,000.00 for injuries which occurred during his arrest in November 1990. As with the Mills case, this office represented the three City police officers. Last week, at~er a trial which lasted almost 'two days, the jury rendered a verdict in favor of all three police officers. We have been informed that plaintiff has appealed this decision. Nonetheless, I am very hopeful that he will not be successful in his attempt to overturn the decision. I should point out that in both of the two situations mentioned above, the police department had conducted a thorough investigation m~d determined that the officers were not at fault. I am very pleased that the judicial system has verified the findings of the internal investigations in both cases. The defense of these cases was conducted by Mr. Parsons of my office. He is to be commended for his excellent preparation and advocacy on behalf of the police officers in both of these cases. I will be pleased to answer any questions which members of council may have about this matter. With kindest personal regards, I am Very truly yours, Dibling, Jr. City Attorney WCD/lsc CC; W.
