Ladies and Gentlemen:
As you know, at the present time Roanoke City homeowners 65 years of age or older and
persons less than 65 years of age determined to be permanently and totally disabled with
a combined gross income not exceeding $24,000.00 and a combined net worth of
$75,000.00 are eligible to receive a freeze on real estate taxes. Therefore, I would request
that Council consider, during 1995-96 budget study, the matter of increasing the income
limits required for elderly and disabled persons to qualify for real estate tax relief from
$24,000.00 to $26,000.00.
Neighboring jurisdictions in Roanoke County and the City of Salem currently allow real
estate tax relief when the gross combined income of the homeowner is under $30,000.00,
according to the attached article from the March/April 1995 edition of ~. I
have been advised that the current income limit of $24,000.00 with combined net worth of
$75,000.00 was set in 1994; in 1993 the income limit was set at $22,000.00 and prior
thereto the income level was $20,000.00.
In view of normal inflation and the income level of neighboring jurisdictions, it is only
equitable and fair to our seniors and disabled persons to include in the 1995-96 budget
study the matter of increasing the income limit to at least $26,000.00.
Therefore, I would request that the matter be placed on the Consent Agenda for the
March 27, 1995, City Council meeting for referral to 1995-96 budget study.
Sincerely,
John S. Edwards

Roanoke City Board of Zoning Appeals
Appointment of the Board
The Council of the City of Roanoke appoints a Board of Zoning Appeals in accordance with enabling legislation
as set forth by the Commonwealth of Virginia, which provides that the said Board of Zoning Appeals may, in
appropriate cases and subject to appropriate conditions and safeguards, vary the application of the terms of the zoning
ordinance in harmony with its general purpose and intent and in accordance with general or specific rules therein
contained.
Membership of the Board
The Board of Zoning Appeals shall consist of five members, each to be appointed for a term of three years and
removable for just cause by City Council, upon written charges and after a public hearing. Vacancies shall be filled
for the unexpired term of any member whose term becomes vacant. Members may be reappointed and may serve up
to three consecutive three-year terms.
Powers of the Board
The Board is appointed by City Council to act as a discretionary administrative body to hear and decide appeals
where it is alleged there is error in any order, requirement, decision, or determination made by administrative officials
in the enforcement of the zoning ordinance adopted pursuant thereto.
The Board is charged with the responsibility to hear, decide and authorize special exceptions to the terms of the
zoning ordinance based upon certain criteria and findings as specified in the ordinance; and to hear, decide, and
authorize, upon appeal in specific cases, a variance from the terms of the zoning ordinance that would not be contrary
to the public interest where a literal enforcement of the provisions of such ordinance would result in unnecessary
hardship, provided in all cases, the spirit of the ordinance shall be observed and substantial justice done.
Summary of Board Action. 1994
During calendar year 1994, the Board heard 69 variance requests, 28 special exception requests, and 2 requests
for interpretations. The Board granted 3 variances in the floodplain and no decisions of the Board were appealed to
Court. A brief synopsis of each request is set out in Appendix A.

School Board Request for the Appropriation of School
Funds and Bond Proceeds
I have reviewed the attached request to appropriate funding for the School
Board. This report will appropriate funding for one grant in the School Fund. This grant
is funded with 100% state funds.
The School Board also requests the appropriation of $200,000 from the
1996 anticipated bond issue proceeds. These funds will be used for architectural
design fees for the renovation of Jackson Middle School. Internal Revenue Service
regulations (Section 1.150-2) require that the City declare its intent to reimburse itself
from the proceeds of its general obligation bonds authorized pursuant to Ordinance
32131-080894, adopted by City Council on August 8, 1994. This action was taken
by Resolution No. 32324-010995 which was adopted on January 9, 1995 authorizing
the School Board for the City of Roanoke to expend funds at Jackson Middle School
and declaring the City's intent to borrow to fund or reimburse such expenditures.
I recommend that you concur with this request of the School Board.

1972 floodinq prompted Valley governments to ask the
Federal Government to take actions to control flooding
in the area.
Flood Plain Committee was formed by Council on April
20, 1973.
Public Advisory Committee (PAC) was formed in early
70's by the Corps of Engineers (COE) with
representatives from interested groups including the
local government.

9 localized projects with various benefit to cost
ratios were rejected in the mid 70's and a viable
upstream solution was requested.
Best upstream solution was a proposed dry dam in
Montgomery County. This solution was rejected when the
Montgomery County Board of Supervisors passed a
resolution in opposition.
1978 floodinq spurred interest in revisiting a
localized solution.
1982 proposal by the COE for a joint local governmental
(City, County, Salem, and Vinton) sponsored local
channel widening project was not successful when the
City was the only local government submitting a non-
binding letter of intent.
1984 final feasibility report and environmental impact
statement was completed by the COE recommending the
project generally as we know it today: however, there
have been some revisions, with a benefit to cost ratio
of 1.4:1. City submitted a second non-binding letter
of intent to be the local sponsor at a locally
estimated cost of $7.2 million.
1985 floodinq resulted in a third non-binding letter of
intent at a locally estimated cost of $7.9 million.
March 1988 fourth letter of intent was required after
changing federal regulations and interpretations,

Mo
changing project scope and rising cost resulted in
locally estimated cost of $9.0 million.
May 1988 fifth non-bindinq letter of intent was
required after adding the recreational trail and
deciding to replace the low water bridges along Wiley
Drive. Benefit to cost ratio was projected at 1.15 to
1 at a locally funded cost of $17 million.
1989 referendum was approved by citizens to fund local
cost by an increase in the utility tax (10% to 12%)
with a local cost estimated at $14,330,586. (See
attached pages 8 and 9 from January 17, 1989 report to
Council for more detail).
1989 and 1990 saw aggressive negotiations concerning
language dealing with environmental contamination.
1990 Local Cooperative Agreement, a binding document,
was executed between the City and the COE.
· City responsible for LERR (Lands, Easements,
Rights of Way and Relocation).
· $34,100,000 total cost. Additional
congressional approval required if cost
exceeds $39,900,000 adjusted for inflation.
· Council approval required if cost exceeds
$34,100,000.
· Joint decision under CERCLA, City cost.

program.
Litter control grant was approved by the Department of
Environmental Quality, Office of Litter Prevention and
Recycling (DEQ).
City received grant funds in the amount of $5,898.00
from the DEQ.
Grant funds were appropriated to CVC by adoption of
Budget Ordinance No. 32283-121294.
CVC applied to the DEQ for supplemental grant funds
which are available during 1995.
Current Situation is as follows:
City has received supplemental grant funds in the
amount of $3,802.00 from the DEQ.
Issues in order of importance are as follows:

funds, the DEQ will wire transfer the funds directly to the
localities represented in the cooperative program.
Roanoke City should be receiving ~ funds of $3,602.00

February Financial Report
This financial report covers the first eight months of the 1994-95 fiscal year. The
following narrative discusses revenue and expenditure trends to date.
REVENUE
Total General Fund revenues reflect an increase of 1.78% over fiscal year 1994.
Variances in specific categories of revenue are as follows:
General Property Taxes collected on a year-to-date basis are approximately $820,000 or 3.72%
less than the same period of FY94. This decrease is due to a timing difference in the collection
of real estate taxes between the fiscal years. Escrow payments from two large financial
institutions were received in February of FY94 but not until early March of FY95, causing this
fluctuation. Real estate tax collections are expected to reach budgeted amounts by the fiscal
year end. Offsetting the decline in real estate revenue is increased public service corporation
tax, collected earlier in FY95 than FY94 since all public service corporation real estate tax was
billed in one installment rather than in two as was previously done.
Other Local Taxes are up 5.55%, adding $1,485,000 to General Fund revenues. The City has
received an additional $950,000 of business license tax revenue on a year-to-date basis over
FY94 due to increased business license return auditing implemented by the Commissioner of
the Revenue. State sales tax revenue is up 8.46% on a year-to-date basis as well. The
prepared food and beverage tax has continued its positive trend, increasing $130,000 since
FY94. Motor vehicle license tax is up $80,000, aided by the placement of a Commissioner of
the Revenue station at the DMV office and the no-decal parking ticket program. Utility tax
decreases of more than $350,000 have occurred in FY95 as the mildest winter on record has
reduced utility usage.
Fines and Forfeitures reflect a 31.34% increase over FY94 due to a $117,000 increase in
General District Court fines resulting from a more aggressive collection approach, increase in
caseload, and the new policy of accepting payments by credit card.
Revenue from the Use of Money and Property reflects a $67,000 or 9.19% increase over the
prior year due to increased investment earnings. This is the result of more efficient investment
of idle cash, an expansion in instruments in which the City invests, and higher interest rates
available in FY95.
Honorable Mayor and Members
Roanoke City Council
March 27, 1995
Page 2
Grants-in-Aid Federal Government is up significantly due to winter storm reimbursement of
$245,000 in FY95 compared to $57,000 in FY94.
Charges for Services are up 8,38% due to increased interfund billings by engineering, building
maintenance, grounds maintenance, and street maintenance. Circuit court fees are up
$32,000. The implementation of the Office of Billings and Collections' City Wide Billing System
added $70,000 to this revenue category due to the change to accrual-based recording of bulk
garbage, weeds and demolitions, and emergency services revenue.
Miscellaneous Revenue has increased significantly due to a $75,000 increase in the amount of
surplus property sales proceeds coupled with other miscellaneous revenue accruals.
EXPENDITURES AND ENCUMBRANCES
Expenditures and encumbrances for the General Fund are up 6.99% over the last fiscal year.
Variances in specific categories are explained as follows:
Judicial Administration expenditures have increased 7.28% or $170,000. The Sheriff's
department, General District Court, and Juvenile and Domestic Relations Court Clerk
departments have had higher capital outlay expenditures. Personal service costs have risen in
the Commonwealth's Attorney, Circuit Court, and Clerk of the Circuit Court departments. The
Commonwealth's Attorney Cost Collections Unit, with expenditures of nearly $30,000, is a
new cost center in FY95.
Public Safety expenditures are up $263,000 or 1.28%. Many Public Safety departments have
experienced general increases in expenditures for personnel, fleet charges, and training and
development. The Jail and Juvenile Detention Home Departments have shown overall
expenditure decreases due to higher reimbursements from other governments which offset
other expenditure increases. EMS has seen increases in personal service costs due to more
overtime and in capital outlay for new equipment. Police Patrol expenditures have risen in the
areas of personal services, capital outlay and fleet charges.
Public Works expenditures have increased $991,000 or 7.49 %. Street maintenance costs are
up with a sizable increase in the City's annual paving contract and an increase in charges for
fleet rental and management services. Solid Waste Management's fees for professional
services have increased over $300,000 due to timing differences in payments to the Roanoke
Valley Resource Authority for landfill charges. Conversely, the Department's salaries and wages
costs have declined by $100,000 due to a reduction in labor cost. Communications' telephone
expenditures have risen as 911 lines are added City-wide, and capital outlay increased when
some previously leased equipment was purchased. Parks Maintenance has incurred greater
personal services, administrative, and fleet rental and maintenance costs but lower capital
outlay costs.
Honorable Mayor and Members
Roanoke City Council
March 27, 1995
Page 3
Community Development expenditures are up 18.27% due to a new position and the transfer
of existing positions into the Department of Planning and Community Development.
Transfers to the Debt Service Fund are up 11.48% or $791,000. Although the overall debt
service requirements of the City remain fairly consistent from year to year, timing differences
in the transfers to this fund have caused a fluctuation on a year-to-date basis.
Transfers to the School Board are up 7.35%, or approximately $1,658,000, due to an overall
increase in the amount funded the School Board combined with timing differences in the
transfers on a cumulative basis.
Nondepartmental expenditures have increased 83.41% or $1,752,000. Funding of the City
Pension Plan retiree raises has increased from approximately $169,000 to $350,000. Transfers
to the Capital Projects Fund are up $1,386,777 due to differences in the project
commencement dates in FY95 versus FY94. Fleet Management has received $265,000 in
FY95 but received none in the prior year through February, while the Transportation Fund has
received $170,000 less this year than in FY94. Slight increases in transfers to the Civic Center
and Nursing Home have also occurred.
I would be pleased to answer any questions which City Council may have
regarding the Monthly Financial Statements.

Re: Cable Television Rate Requlation
Dear Mayor Bowers and City Council Members:
I have recently been advised of consumer complaints as to
recent cable television channel line-up changes and a rate increase
of $1.61 per month implemented by Cox Cable Roanoke, Inc. ("Cox")
for the tier of service above basic service which Cox refers to as
Cox Preferred Service ("CPS"). This report addresses City
Council's role in cable television rate regulation.
The City has taken all required action under federal law to
perfect its right to regulate basic cable television rates. On
October 4, 1993, City Council adopted Resolution No. 31729-100493
authorizing the filing of FCC Form 328. By filing this form with
the FCC, the City obtained "certification" to regulate basic cable
television rates. On October 11, 1993, City Council adopted
Ordinance No. 31740-101193 governing procedures and standards for
regulation of cable television rates. This ordinance stipulated
that the City would abide by the FCC's rate regulations. By
sending to Cox written notification informing Cox that the two
foregoing steps had been completed and that Cox should submit
necessary FCC rate regulation information to the City, the City
completed all steps required to regulate rates charged by Cox for
the basic tier of cable television service. Cox has maintained a
basic monthly rate of $7.63 for City customers since July 14, 1994.
Cox recently made changes in channel line-up and charges for
CPS. The channel line-up changes and rate increase of $1.61 per
month became effective February 1, 1995. Under federal law, the
City does not have the authority to regulate the rates charged by
Cox for its CPS tier. FCC regulations, however, allow any cable
television subscriber within the City to submit a complaint to the
FCC which would trigger FCC oversight of the CPS tier. Citizens
The Honorable Mayor and Members
of City Council
March 27, 1995
Page 2
who recently appeared before the Roanoke Valley Regional Cable TV
Committee were advised of the requirement that any complaints with
respect to rates charged for the CPS tier should be directed to the
FCC. Citizens were also advised that complaints about provisions
of the applicable federal law or FCC regulations should be
addressed to our Congressional delegation.
I shall be pleased to address any questions City Council may
have with respect to this matter.
With kindest personal regards, I am
Sincerely yours,

Dear Mayor Bowers
Re: City Council Meeting at Hotel
Roanoke Conference Center
and Council Members:
I understand that, in connection with the opening of the Hotel
Roanoke and Conference Center, City Council desires to hold the
first official meeting in the new Conference Center on April 3,
1995. It is my further understanding that the meeting will
commence in the Crystal Ballroom at 10:00 a.m. and that the agenda
will include special briefings with respect to the Hotel Roanoke
and Conference Center as well as regular agenda items suggested by
the City Council and the City Manager.
Accordingly, I have prepared the attached ordinance which
provides that for the month of April, 1995, only City Council will
hold three regular meetings. The regular meeting of April 3, 1995,
will commence at 10:00 a.m. in the Crystal Ballroom. The regular
meetings to be held on the second and fourth Mondays are unaffected
by the attached ordinance.
I trust that the attached ordinance is consistent with
Council's intent.

WALNUT AVENUE BRIDGE OVER ROANOKE RIVER
ACQUISITION OF ADDITIONAL PROPERTY RIGHTS
Background on the subject in chronological order is as follows:
A. Walnut Avenue Bridqe over the Roanoke River was built in the 1890's.
B. The bridge was raised to match the grade of the new bridge over the
railway tracks in the 1920's.
C. Last major work was done in 1977 when the bridge was painted.
D. Inspection of the brid.qe is made on an annual basis. In the last several
years, inspection has determined that the major components of the
bridge are in marginal or poor condition.
E. Load ratinq analysis was performed in November, 1993. The posted
limit has been reduced from 10 tons to 8 tons. This reduction limits the
use of the bridge.
F. Preliminary engineerinq report has been completed.
G. Additional properties (Temporary Construction Easements) have been
identified in the final design.
H. Authorization was granted by City Council on January 23, 1995, to
move forward with title work, appraisals, negotiation, and closings for
acquisitional property rights, as listed on Attachment "A".

II.
Current situation is as follows:
A.
Walnut Avenue Bridge replacement is currently under design, and
construction is scheduled for the Fall of 1995.
Authorization is needed to move forward with additional title work,
appraisals, negotiations, and closings for acquisition of property rights.
Additional property rights to be acquired are shown on Attachment B.
Ill.
Issues in order of importance are as follows:
A. Need
B. Timinq
C. Funding
IV. Alternatives in order of feasibility are as follows:
Committee recommends that City Council authorize the acquisition of
additional property rights needed in connection with the Walnut Avenue
Bridge project currently being designed, and providing no insurmountable
environmental problems are identified. Said property rights are identified
in Attachment B.
Need for property rights acquisition has been established by design
of the Walnut Avenue Bridge project.
Timing of property rights acquisition is critical to avoid delay of
project schedule.
Funding totaling $60,000.00 was appropriated to the Walnut
Avenue Bridge Replacement account number 008-052-9684-9003
by City Council January 23, 1995, and is adequate to cover the
additional property rights required.

Committee recommends that City Council not authorize the acquisition
of additional property riqhts.
1. Need for property rights acquisition established by design of the
Walnut Avenue Bridge project would not be met.
2. Timinq would cause delay of the project if property rights are not
acquired.
3. Funding would remain in the Walnut Avenue Bridge Replacement
account.
Recommendation is as follows:
Committee recommends that City Council concur in Alternative "A" and take
the following action:
Authorize the acquisition of additional property rights as more specifically
identified in Attachment B by making offers based on appraisals and institute
condemnation if necessary for the Walnut Avenue Bridge project.

Re:
Results of Soil and Ground-Water Investigation
Proposed Walnut Avenue Bridge Site
RUST Environment & Infi'astructure Project No. 32144.300
Dear Mr. Campbell:
This letter presents a summary of the results of soil and groundwater investigation and analysis
performed by RUST Environment & Infrastructure (RUST E&F) of Richmond, Virginia for
Mattem & Craig of Roanoke, Virginia. The investigation was performed along the proposed
storm sewer aligament, the proposed bridge abutment area, a~d tlu~e small parcels of the subject
properties to be acquired by the City of Roanoke to accommodate the increased turning radius at
the intersection. Figure 1 presents the site location and topograpby.
Storm Sewer Alignment
Six soil borings were advanced fi.om which sample~ were collected at t~ve foot intervals to
characterize potential impacts along the proposed storm sewer aligament and the proposed bridge
abutment. Soil borings SB-3, SB-4, SB-5, a~d SB-6 were installed along the storm sewer
alignment. SB-I was advanced in the vi,~ity of the proposed bridge abutment and monitoring
well I (MW-l) was in~allad in SB-I. SB-2 w~ advanoed between ~ Terminex facility and
Moody printing along Piedmont Avenue. Monitoring Well 2 (MW-2) was installed in SB-2.
Figure 2 presents the locations of the borin~ and wells. Individual samplea were screened in the
field for volatile orgarfi¢ compounds (VOCs) and · vertically integrated composite sample fi.om
each boring was submitted to aa analytical labomo~ for evaluation. Groundwater samples were
collected laboratory for analysis fi.om the two monitoring walls. All installation, samplIng, and
arutlysis was performed to industry standards.
All soil samples were analyzed for 'rPH and BTEX constituents and the sample for SB-5 was also
analyzed for VOCs, PCBs, pesticides, and hestficides. The only detection reported from the
laboratmT analysis was fi.om soil boring SB-6, located between the Gates Petroleum Company
property and the Roanoke River beside the proposed storm sewer. The analysis indicated a
benzene concentration of 0.5 m~/Ks, · toluene concentration of 0.2 rog/Kg, and a xylene
concentration ofO 1 m~g, These levels are only slightly I~reater than the reporting limit of 0 I
mg/Kg for each constituent. They are f~r h~lo~ty th~ i.a,,.,.4.l nnd ronirt~.ntial I:xpnsure [-~vels
and are not thought to pose any significant risk to workers. No other samples showed levels
greater than the reporting limits. No VOCs, pesticides, PCBs, or herbicides were detected in the
sample collected from soil boring SB-5, located between the TemUnex facility and the Smith
Properly. ..
Field screemng of the soll samples for VOCs indicated pockets of orgamc vapor in the subsurface,
the greatest reading for organic vapor was 120 ppm in boring SB-5. The lowest reading for
organic vapor was 0 ppm in boring SB-2. Other soil samples showed vapor readings ranging
from I to 100 ppm. In general, the greatest reading for each individual boring was found in the
shallowest sample for that boring, which is consistent with minor impacts associated with the
overlying asphalt cover. Comparison of these results with those from the laboratory indicates that
cause of the readings is not persistem and must dissipate rapidly in the ambient air.
Ground-water samples were collected from the two monitoring wells installed at the site.
Samples were analyzed for TPI-I, BTEX, VOCs, PCBs, pesticides and herbicides. Results of the
analysis indicate no ground-water contamination of sisnlficance. The oniy compound detected
above laboratory detection limits was chloroforn~ in well MW-2 at a concentration of 8
micrograms per liter (us/L). Chloroform is a common laboratory contaminant. The detected
value is only slightly greater than the reporting limit of 5 uf/L and is significantly less than
drinking water standards and maximum comanunant levels (MCLs).
P~oper~ Acqui. v!~n
A Phase I Environmental Assessment (EA) was performed on the Moody Graphics and Termmex
facilities. These facilities are located in the vicinity of the intersection of Peidmont Avenue and
Walnut Avenue. The City will have to acquire a small parcel of both the properties to
accommodate the increas~ turning radii proposed for the intersection. Additionally the City will
have to acquire two small p~rcel of the Gates Petroleum Service Station for the same purpose.
The EA did not speciiically address the Gates Site as a do~tmented release 9f liouid oetroleum
~ha,m ~ reported at t-hat site and a Site Characterization Report (SCR) was
submitted to the Virginia Del)re'inmont of Environmental Quality (DEQ). Fism'e 2 presents the
locations of the prop~ties and the soil bonng and monitorin8 well locations.
The Phase I FA. did not identifi] any sigaificant potential environmental threats to the environment
associated with the Moody Cnlphics Facility. Soil samples collected from SB-2 (upgradient and
adjacent to the facility) and SB-I (down gradient of the facility) did not show any detectable
concentrations of contamination. Ground water samples from the monitoring wells installed in
those borings (MW-I and MW-2, respectively) did not indicate any contamination of sigrUficance

The Phase I EA did'h~t identify any sigmficant potential environmental threats to the environment
associated with the Terrain.ex Facility. Soil samples collected from SB-4 and SB-5 (down
gradient of the facility) did not show any detectable concentrations of contamination. Ground
water samples from the momtoring wells installed in boring SB-2 (MW-2) did not indicate any
contamination of significance.
Gates PetroLeum
A SCR was performed on the site by CBM Environmental Services, Inc. of Charlotte, NC., and
is dated June 14, 1994. A copy of the SCR was included in the Phase I EA performed by RUST
E&I. The report indicates that dissolved impacts are limited to the interior of the Gates property
and that off-site migration of contaminati0n is minimal. The data presented in the SCR indicate
that contamination beneath the two.small parcels to be acquired by the City i. is~s also minimal. Soil
boring SB-6 (down gradient of the site) showed extremely low level concentrations o~fBTEX, and
SB-3 (down gradient of the site) showed no detectable impacts.
Summary
Based on the results of the sampling performed at the site, it does not appear that any sigmficam
risk of environmental exposure exists. Activities associated with the construction of the Walnut
Avenue Bridge and associated roadwork should not be adversely impacted by any subsurface
contamination. No approvals or p~mits should he reauired frg~ the Vir,,mnia DEOfor handling
or disposal of the soil and ground wnt~ as ~-widanc. ed b~t the r~ults of this study. Addition~ly.
t~e investigation results indicate minimal liability associated with the acquisition oftbe subjec~
properties by the city of Roanoke.
