Dear Mary:
Councilman Delvis "Mac" McCadden has requested that I contact you
to allow our office the opportunity to give an annual report to
council. The nature of our presentation will be how Roanoke
City's increased funding to our organization has been spent.
Additionally, he wishes an updated report on our marketing
efforts for the new conference center. His original request was
for approximately 45 minutes to one hour.
Pursuant to our conversation, you have programmed February 28th,
2 p.m. for our presentation. You have suggested 15 to 20
minutes. We will do our utmost to stay within your suggested
time frame.
As we discussed, we will need a VCR/TV, and a slide projector,
screen and projection stand. The bureau will be glad to make
arrangements for the equipment. If you prefer to have your
office handle the arrangements, we would be glad to pay for the
necessary equipment. Please let me know your decision.
I look forward to seeing you on February 28, 1994. I hope 1994
will be a productive and prosperous year for you.
Sincerely,
a Mackey ~

Honorable David A. Bowers, Mayor
and Members of Council
Roanoke, Virginia
Dear Members of Council:
SUBJECT:
City - State Agreement
Demelit~on of Structures
Widening
for Wells Avenue
I. Background:
On April 13t 1987 City Council requested the Virginia
Department of Transportation (VDOT) to program
projects for roadway widening and realignment to
include:
1. Wells Avenue, N.W. from Williamson Road to First
Street, N.W.
First Street/Gainsboro Road from Madison Avenue,
N.W. to Salem Avenue, S.W. and intersection of
Orange Avenue and Gainsboro Road. (This
alignment ultimately shifted location to become
known as the Second Street/Gainsboro Road
project.)
Be
On December 16t 1992 City Council approved (by
Resolution No. 31287-121692) the location of the
realignment of Wells Avenue, N.W. from Williamson Road
to Second Street, N.W. (presently known as First
Street, N.W.).
Wells Avenue project schedule has been accelerated to
improve public safety and traffic flow in connection
with the opening of the Hotel Roanoke/Conference
Center in early-1995.
On April 12, 1993, City Council authorized (by
Ordinance No. 31406-041293) an amendment to the
"Agreement for Administering Project by Municipality"
between the City and VDOT for Wells Avenue to allow
VDOT to handle the right-of-way and construction

De
phases of the project in order to meet the stringent
time schedule. The preliminary engineering phase
continues to be administered by the City with its
consultant, Mattern & Craig, Inc., Consulting
Engineers.
Further, VDOT has been extraordinarily cooperative in
its scheduling of many project-related activities.
On August 9t 1993 City Council approved the location
and major design features of the realignment of Wells
Avenue, N.W. from Williamson Road to Second Street,
N.W. (Resolution No. 31622-080993).
Current Situation:
Contract for the demolition of structures that need to
be displaced for the widening of Wells Avenue is
needed in advance of the Wells Avenue roadway contract
to help reduce the construction work requirements of
the roadway contractor. This is important due to the
short timeframe that will be available to the roadway
contractor (expected to begin work in June, 1994 and
complete basic roadway construction by late-February,
1995).
Bids for building demolition were received by VDOT on
February 16, 1994. A contract was awarded the
following day to S. B. Cox, Inc. of Richmond,
Virginia.
Structures that need to be razed are all within the
area north of Wells Avenue (to the alley) from
Williamson Road to Jefferson Street (See Attachment I
map). This consists of the eight (8) commercial
buildings while the two (2) residential dwellings will
be moved to other property on Gilmer Avenue. Traffic
on Wells Avenue will need to be detoured periodically
during this demolition work in the interest of public
safety.
City must execute the attached City-State Agreement
(Attachment II) before VDOT will allow the contractor
to begin demolition.
E. City share of the cost of this demolition contract is
~4t122 (2% of the actual cost).

1. Funding, in the amount of $4t122, is available
for this project from the Streets and Bridges
Category of the 1992 Bond Series-A.
2. Demolition plans comply with City's needs for
this project.
Timing for demolition contract work to begin is
March, 1994. Contractor has a fixed-time
completion date of May 31, 1994.
Reject City-State Agreement and proceed to reimburse
VDOT for 100% of all expenditures to date in

total VDOT project expenditures to date.
2. Demolition plans would not be done at this time.
3. Timing for Wells Avenue construction would be
delayed.
