RE: Review of Risk Management Information System Purchase
Dear Mayor Bowers and Members of Council:
City Council approved the purchase of a Risk Management Information System on
December 14, 1994. When approved, Council asked that a report on the use of the
system detailing its first six months use be presented in June, 1995.
Meetings began with the software vendor in January 1995, to begin configuration,
however installation of software and training of personnel did not occur until the last week
of August, 1995. Therefore, a report of the use of the system after the first six months of
use will be delivered to City Council in March of 1996.

Re: Urban Partnership of Virginia
Dear Members of Council:
I am pleased to report to you the successful culmination of two
years of hard work on behalf of the Urban Partnership of Virginia,
of which the City of Roanoke has been a very active participant.
You will find enclosed the brochure outlining the recommendations
and legislative proposals of the Urban Partnership to be presented
at the General Assembly Session coming up in January, 1996. These
proposals have been approved by the Urban Partnership Board of
Directors and by the General Business Session of the Virginia
Municipal League. The proposals did not receive approval by the
Virginia Association of Counties, but further discussion with
Virginia Counties is ongoing regarding these issues. I also
understand that a conversation was held recently with Delegate Dick
Cranwell, and he expressed a positive reaction and made some
significant suggestions regarding the issue of city, county and
regional governments in Virginia.
As you know, the tourism initiative and this Urban Partnership
initiative have been the major two themes of my term as Mayor. I
am very pleased that we have, thus far, been successful with both
efforts. Thank you for your support and your suggestions regarding
both issues.
I would respectfully request that this correspondence and the
enclosed brochure be made a part of the agenda for the regular
Council meeting on December 18, 1995, and thereafter be received
and filed without objection.
The Honorable Vice-Mayor and
Members of Roanoke City Council

This report also appropriates $268,077 from the School portion of the

RE: Field House/Victory Stadium Study
Dear Bob:
After being briefed on the status of the Field House/Victory
Stadium Study, I would like to share some of my thoughts concerning
the direction in which I believe this study should go.
VICTORY STADIUM
First, Victory Stadium should not be torn down; nor should its
present seating capacity be reduced. Instead, improvements should
be made to include modern restroom facilities, locker rooms, and
other improvements to bring the structure up to standards. The
internal field should be flattened and widened by taking up most of
the macadam track in order to accommodate the field to professional
soccer and football. The stadium should be able to accommodate
college football games such as VMI v. Marshall University, and
other similar size athletic events, as well as concerts.
I do not believe tearing down the structure of Victory Stadium
and building a new stadium is justifiable financially. The
structure is sound, I understand. Moreover, I do not believe the
citizens would support tearing down Victory Stadium because it is
a City asset with a rich tradition which should be preserved.
Secondly, the limited parking currently available at Victory
Stadium is a major impediment to attracting athletic events and
concerts. There is only one viable solution to this problem, i.e.,
acquiring the property north of Reserve Avenue and turning it into
a parking lot. The City should begin looking at ways to acquire
this property and determine the probable cost of doing so as part
of the overall study of Victory Stadium. The use of Victory
Stadium will continue to be severely limited absent significant
Mr. W. Robert Herbert

expansion of available close-in parking. Shuttle busing from the
Civic Center and other remote parking areas is not a viable
substitute for close-in parking. Because South Roanoke Park has
been dedicated to soccer fields, that space is not now available
for parking.
Thirdly, an eight-lane Olympic style track should be built
outside of Victory Stadium. This is because of the cost and
accompanying loss of substantial seating involved in attempting to
modify Victory Stadium to accommodate an eight-lane track.
Ideally, an eight-lane track should be built between the Roanoke
River and Reserve Avenue, with a smaller 2,500 seat stadium. This
would compliment Victory Stadium, Mahr Field and the soccer fields
at South Roanoke Park and provide for a central athletic complex.
If there is not room to accommodate a track along the river,
I suggest upgrading the track at either Patrick Henry High School
or William Fleming High School with a 2,500 seat stadium to
accommodate large regional and perhaps state track and field meets.
Such a stadium could also accommodate high school football games
when Victory Stadium is not available.
FIELD HOUSE
I believe construction of a multi-sport indoor athletic field
house should be a top priority of the City. As you know, there is
currently no similar facility in the Valley and such a facility
would fill an important void, help to lock in the Commonwealth
Games and the Express hockey team, and attract more sporting events
to the Valley. If an ice rink is attached to the field house, not
only would youth hockey be served, but the professional Express
hockey team would have a place to practice, an essential ingredient
of retaining this popular team in the Valley. In addition, a
number of smaller amateur sports - such as gymnastics and
volleyball - could utilize such a facility along with track and
field and other indoor sports.
The location of a field house is very important. It must be
readily accessible to those traveling from outside Roanoke. For
this reason, I recommend the field house be located near Interstate
581. The Celebration Station location at the intersection of 1-581
and Hershberger Road has this advantage, as does william Fleming
High School.
The property north of Reserve Avenue near Victory Stadium also
has the advantage of being near the interstate and concentrating
the City's athletic facilities at a single location. Another
possible location would be somewhere in the 1-581/Orange Avenue
interchange near the Civic Center.
Mr. W. Robert Herbert
December 15, 1995

The consultants suggestion that ice hockey and swimming
facilities be added to the field house complex is a good one
because it continues the concept of synergy, i.e., one sporting
activity supporting another. I am concerned, however, that the
more grandiose the concept, the more expensive and less "doable"
the project becomes. Of course, it may be possible to phase in the
construction, with the field house being built first, then ice
hockey, then aquatic activities.
The consultants suggest also building a central recreational
facility in addition to a field house, ice hockey rink and aquatics
building. Rather than a central large recreational facility, I
believe that a number of recreational facilities should be built in
the various neighborhoods. Existing neighborhood recreational
facilities can be improved and new neighborhood recreational
facilities built. Expansion and enhancement of the existing
facilities at Preston Park, Thrasher Park, Eureka Park, Jackson
Park, and others would better serve the neighborhoods, rather than
building a single large centralized recreational facility.
Roanoke, like most cities, is a group of smaller
neighborhoods. The success of the Neighborhood Partnership is in
part because each neighborhood retains its separate identity. I
believe neighborhood "recreational facilities" located in
neighborhood parks having close access to the citizens would better
serve the neighborhoods, than a large centralized recreational
facility.
I also believe the development of recreational facilities
should not be confused with a multi-sport indoor athletic field
house which must be centralized due to its size.
In considering a location of an indoor field house and an
outdoor track, proximity to the existing high schools should be
given great weight. The high school track and field teams, for
example, would be the principal users of these facilities. At the
same time, I believe the City's Parks and Recreation Department
should have ownership over these facilities, rather than the school
system, because they would be used for nonschool related activities
and by the community at large.
Howard Light has suggested, and I agree, that if the field
house is located at William Fleming, the upgraded track should be
located at Patrick Henry High School. This way, both schools would
receive a tangible benefit from this project.
If the Field House/Victory Stadium project is phased in, I
strongly believe the Field House should come first. This is
because the Valley does not now have anything similar to an indoor
Mr. W. Robert Herbert
December 15, 1995
Page 4
athletic field house, while we do have Victory Stadium. Also, the
Express Hockey team needs an indoor facility to practice in;
otherwise, we may lose this popular team.
I believe that development of a multi-sport indoor athletic
field house, with a hockey rink, would have major benefits to the
entire Roanoke Valley and indeed the region. With the rapid
increase of participatory sports by citizens of all ages, the
increasing popularity of hockey, the pressing need for an indoor
track for our middle school and high school students, I believe
such a facility would be well-used and be an important resource for
the Valley. By attracting regional and state-wide events,
additional visitors would be attracted to the Valley thereby
providing an important economic benefit.
I believe it is time to move forward on this important
project.
Sincerely,
· Edwards

Request of Roanoke Regional Airport Commission to Change Submittal
Date of its Annual Budget
Dear Mayor Bowers and Members of Council
The Roanoke Regional Airport Commission has requested a change to the date that it
submits its annual operating and capital budgets to the participating political subdivisions from
February 15 to March 16. This change will enable the commission to use six months of actual
financial data to prepare the budget for the next fiscal year and would still allow sufficient time for
adjustments to the City budget, should this need ever arise.
The Roanoke Regional Airport Commission would like to have a bill authorizing the
change introduced on the first day of the legislative session in January; therefore, they are
requesting the approval of the participating political subdivisions at the earliest possible date.
I concur in this request and recommend that City Council adopt the attached resolution.

Honorable Mayor and City Council
Roanoke, Virginia
Dear Members of Council:
SUBJECT: SELECTION OF A LONG TERM DISABILITY INSURANCE PROVIDER
December 18, 1995
95-46
II.
BACKGROUND IN CHRONOLOGICAL ORDER IS AS FOLLOWS:
Currently the City of Roanoke provides disability covera,qe to employees
through the City of Roanoke Pension Plan and the Virginia Retirement
System (Sheriffs Department employees).
Coverage provided through the Roanoke Pension Plan and the Virginia
Retirement System is only available should the employee become totally and
permanently disabled. VVhile this coverage provides an important benefit to
City employees, it may not provide sufficient financial protection nor does it
assume that an employee may return to work.
According to the Society of Actuaries, the chances of suffering a long term
disability are almost twice that of dying prematurely. Additionally, more than
one out of seven workers will have a long term disability before age 65. That
number increases to one in five between 35 and 65. The average age of
current City employees is 41.
CURRENT SITUATION IS AS FOLLOWS:
The City's insurance broker for this project, Johnson and Hi,q,qins, mailed
proposals to 15 companies.
Six responses for long term disability insurance were received. Out of six
responses, Johnson and Higgins recommended that the City consider three
based on meeting the needs of our employees and cost.
Lon,q term disability insurance evaluation team consisting of 7 members from
the Employee Benefits Awareness Committee and three staff members from
Personnel Management interviewed the three finalists.
Based on interviews and evaluations the financial strength of the company
and favorable rates, the committee unanimously determined the most
qualified company is Cigna Group Insurance Company.
Honorable Mayor and City Council

IV,
ISSUES IN ORDER OF IMPORTANCE ARE:
A. Coverage
B. Qualifications
C. Cost
D. Funding
ALTERNATIVES IN ORDER OF FEASIBILITY ARE:
Council approve the award of a contract for the City's long term disability
coverage to Cigna Group Insurance Company for a period of two years
beginning February 1, 1996 and ending January 31, 1998. The City
contribution will be 50% of the premium rate.
1. Coverage for the long term disability plan during the contract period
includes the following:
a. Employees will receive up to 60% of monthly pay, with a maximum
of $5,000.
b. A waiting period in which the employee is unable to work is 90 days.
During the first two years of disability following completion of the
waiting period, the employee is considered to be disabled from
performing their own occupation. After two years, benefits would
continue uninterrupted, if the employee is not able to work at any
occupation for which they might become qualified based on
education, training and experience.
If returning to work in a different job which pays less than the pre-
disability job, for 12 months the employee may earn as much as they
earned prior to the disability through a combination of work earnings
plus disability benefits. After 12 months, earnings and disability
payments may not exceed 80% of earnings prior to the disability.
Amounts earned above 80% will cause the disability payment to be
reduced by the amount above 80%.
Disability coverage with Cigna is fully integrated with Social Security,
the City of Roanoke Pension Plan, the Virginia Retirement System
and Virginia Workers Compensation. As such, should an eligible
total and permanent disability occur, the above referenced programs
would pay first and the Cigna Plan would supplement these
programs up to 60% of monthly salary not to exceed $5,000.
Honorable Mayor and City Council
Page 3
f. Enrollment requirement is 45% of eligible employees. Therefore, if
45% of eligible employees do not participate, Cigna may choose not
to offer coverage.
2. Qualifications of Cigna Group Insurance include:
a. A.M. Best Rating: A+ (one of the highest ratings which indicates
financial stability).
b. Over 40 years of experience providing disability coverage to groups
of 10 to 100,000 employees.
c. The #2 carrier in LTD premium.
d. Provides flexible, hands-on enrollment capabilities with a staff
dedicated to the marketing and enrolling needs of the policyholder.
e. Divisional headquarters located in Virginia.
f. Strong claim management focus and cost containment programs that
include our Vocational Rehabilitation and Social Security Appeals
Assistance programs.
g. A 1-800 Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Helpline available as
a source of up-to-date information about ADA guidelines.
h. Provides a 1-800 number for the claims department located in
Dallas, Texas.
3. Cost
a. The City will contribute one-half of the cost for long term disability
coverage provided 45% of employees enroll. The City contribution
is estimated to be $27,000 for the balance of FY 95-96.
b. Employee monthly rates for coverage are as follows:
Employee annual salary x .0025 = annual cost to employee
Annual cost +26 pay periods = employee cost per pay period
Average Employee = $27,500 x .0025 = 68.75
Cost per pay period = 68.75 +26 = $2.65
Honorable Mayor and City Council
Page 4
4. FundinR
a. FundinR for the City portion was included in the adopted budget and
is available in account 001 004 9110 1131.
B. Council not approve the award of a contract for long term disability
1. CoveraRe would not be provided.
2. Qualifications would not be an issue.
3. Cost would not be an issue.
4. FundinR would not be an issue.
RECOM MEN DATION:
Council approve the award of the contract for long term disability insurance to
Cigna Group Insurance Company for a period of two (2) years beginning February
1, 1996 and ending January 30, 1998 for coverage and rates described under
Alternative A of this report and authorize the City Manager to execute a contract as
approved in form by the City Attorney.

Council Report No. 95-525
Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council
Roanoke, Virginia
Dear Mayor Bowers and Members of Council:
Subject: Creation of Citizens Services - Cultural Committee
Back~lround on the subject in chronological order is as follows:
The Citizens Services Committee (originally known as Human Resoumes
Committee) was created by City Council on July 6, 1976 through ordinance
number 23073. Comprised of seven members, the committee reviews applicant
information from approximately 33 non-profit human service and cultural units or
agencies and makes a funding recommendation to City Council based on
funding allocated to the committee.
Some cultural organizations and human service agencies are funded as
separate line items in the annual operating budget. Attachment A shows
budgetary allocations to cultural and human service organizations for FY
1995-96.
Dudn!:l Fiscal Year 1995-96 Budf:let Study, City Council directed the City
Manager to establish a separate committee for the purpose of allocating cultural
funds. This change will allow funding to be allocated to cultural and human
services agencies in a consistent manner and provide for similar accountability
of public dollars and performance monitoring of services.
II.
Current Situation is as follows:
City Mana,qer convened a committee to review and develop a proposal for
adoption by City Council reformatting the Citizens Services Committee into two
committees:
O
O
human services agencies
cultural agencies
Committee was formed under the direction of the Director of Human
Development and reviewed the rules and operations of the current Citizens
Services Committee. In addition, members researched other localities to
determine funding mechanisms for cultural and human service agencies and
developed a new application format and accountability / screening mechanisms.
III.
IV.
Recommendations for policies and procedures for the Human Services
Committee and the Cultural Committee include the following:
Appointment of one member from the existing Citizens Services
Committee to be a liaison to the Cultural Services Committee for a one
year period and changing the name of the existing Citizens Services
Committee to the Human Services Committee;
Appointment of seven citizens to serve on the Cultural Services
Committee;
At least one of the appointments will be a member of the City's
management staff, in order to provide administrative support to the
committee;
City Council require non-City department / non-profit a.qencies
requesting general revenue funding to:
complete a Citizens Services Committee application;
participate in performance monitoring activities of Citizens
Services Committee;
provide annual audit of program or agency, and
comply with requirements of budget committee, as appropriate.
A,qencies currently funded as individual line-items will be held-harmless
the first budgeting year (FY 1996-97), to the extent budget funds are
available.
Authorization of City Mana!:ler to approve the administrative procedures
for the committees' operations.
Public advertisement and training to be provided to cultural and human
services agencies regarding changes in application procedures for
funding.
Issues are as follows:
Improvements to the budgeting process for allocating funds to cultural and
human service agencies
B. Evaluation and monitoring of services provided by agencies
C. Funding
Alternatives in order of feasibility are as follows:
City Council authorize the creation of a Cultural Services Committee to review
and recommend an allocation of funding to cultural agencies for future budget
years. Amend the City Code to rename the Citizens Services Committee to the
Human Services Committee and authorize the City Manager to approve
changes to administrative procedures for both committees.
Improvements to the budgeting process for allocating funds to cultural
and human service agencies will be accomplished through a systematic
approach to reviewing agency requests. All cultural agency requests will
be reviewed by one committee for funding recommendations, and
human service agencies will be reviewed by one committee.
Evaluation and monitoring of services provided by agencies will be
accomplished through improved screening and accountability
mechanisms, including criteria for applying for funding and performance
monitoring.
Fundinf:l levels are established by City Council and will be made
available to each committee to allocate to the various agencies.
City Council not authorize the creation of a Cultural Services Committee to
review and recommend an allocation of funding to cultural agencies for future
budget years. Do not amend the City Code to rename the Citizens Services
Committee to the Human Services Committee and do not authorize the City
Manager to approve changes to administrative procedures for both committees.
Improvements to the bud,qetin,q process for allocating funds to cultural
and human service agencies will not be accomplished. Agencies will be
funded in the same manner as previous years.
Evaluation and monitorinq of services provided by agencies will remain
the same.
Funding levels will be provided to the Citizens Services committee as in
current practice, and some other agencies will still be funded as separate
line items within the operating budget.
Recommendation is as follows:
City Council concur in Alternative A and authorize the creation of a Cultural
Services Committee to review and recommend an allocation of funding to
cultural agencies for future budget years. Amend the City Code to rename the
Citizens Services Committee to the Human Services Committee and authorize
the City Manager to approve changes to administrative procedures for both
committees.

Dear Committee Members:
The 1995-96 Roanoke City budget study recommended that the
Citizen's Services Committee be divided into two separate groups.
These would include a human services and a cultural organization
citizen services committee.
A cultural committee review group has been meeting to develop the
attached report for consideration by City Council. This report
provides the framework for City Council to authorize the creation
of a cultural committee. The cultural committee will be separate
from the human services committee.
Please review this document and write any comments directly on the
material and return to me by November 1, 1995. Your attention to
this matter is greatly appreciated.
Sincerely,
Director of Human Development

November Financial Report
This financial report covers the first five months of the 1995-96 fiscal year. The following narrative
discusses revenue and expenditure trends to date.
REVENUE
Total General Fund revenues reflect an increase of 3.89% or $1,740,000, on a year to date basis, compared
to FY95. Variances in specific categories of revenue are as follows:
General Property Taxes have increased $723,000 or 3.51%. Real estate taxes are up 2.00%, adding
$381,000 to revenues, and personal property taxes have risen 36.72%, providing an additional $206,000
over that of FY95. Public Service Corporation tax and penalties and interest have also risen.
Other Local Taxes are up $450,000 or 3.65% due to increases in sales tax, electric service utility taxes,
transient room taxes (up 26%), and prepared food and beverage taxes. Cigarette and business and
professional occupational license taxes have declined in FY96 through November.
Permits, Fees and Licenses are down 21.55% or $73,000. This is due to lower fees for electrical,
plumbing and elevator inspections, and decreased street opening permits. Bingo audit fees are also lower
in the current year.
Fines and Forfeitures have increased by $63,000 or 18.96%. General District Court fines have continued
to increase due to a greater caseload, the policy of accepting payment by credit card, and a more aggressive
collection approach. Higher General District Court judgment collection fees have been collected by the
Cost Collections Unit which was established in FY95. Parking ticket revenue has also increased.
Revenues from the Use of Money and Property have increased $209,000 or 62.41%. Interest income
has risen due to increased short-term interest rates and higher average daily balances held in interest bearing
accounts. Rent from offices located in the Commonwealth Building has increased as has other building
rental. Rent from Social Services in Municipal North is higher this year through November because it is
being paid on a regular monthly basis in FY96 versus being paid in larger amounts but less frequently in
FY95. By year end, this rent should be comparable between the two fiscal years.
Honorable Mayor and Members
Roanoke City Council
December 18, 1995
Page 2
Grants-in-Aid Federal Government have decreased 49.00% due to lower FEMA reimbursements.
Charges for Services have increased $254,000 or 30.76%. Sheriffs Court fees are up due to a change in
fees implemented at the State level, and there are increased Emergency Medical Services and Weed Cutting
and Demolitions revenues due to the use of accrual accounting via the City-Wide Billing System.
EXPENDITURES AND ENCUMBRANCES
Expenditures and encumbrances in the General Fund have increased 7.74% or $4,755,000 since FY95.
Variances in individual expenditure categories are discussed below:
Judicial Administration expenditures have risen 7.57% or $118,000. Personal services costs have risen
in the Sheriff and Commonwealth's Attorney departments. Equipment has also been purchased.
Reimbursements to the Circuit Court are lower through November of the current year, due to timing
differences, while fees for professional services have risen.
Public Safety expenditures have increased 10.45% or $1,389,000. Jail personal services expenditures have
increased 24% due to the City Jail expansion which added new employees. Additional computer equipment
has been purchased, and CIS and other internal service charges have risen. Contractual services costs are
also up due to the privatization of~Iail medical services effective July 1. Police expenditures have increased
$210,000 and Fire Operations expenditures have increased $292,000, mostly due to increased personal
services costs in these labor-intensive departments. Emergency Medical Services personnel costs have
increased due to the transfer of an existing position into the department and due to additional part time
employees. Capital outlay costs are lower in the department in FY96 because some medical equipment was
purchased last year. The Building Inspections Department has incurred greater costs for personal services
and for the demolition ofcondenmed structures located in the City.
Public Works expenditures have risen $1,250,000 or 13.50% in FY96. Street Paving expenditures have
increased $154,000. The Communications Department has seen increased personal services, telephone,
maintenance, and equipment costs due to its expanded 911 program, but recovered costs have declined.
Solid Waste Management's fees for professional services have increased in the form of payments made to
the Roanoke Valley Resource Authority for landfill charges. This is mainly due to a difference in the timing
of payments rather than a fee increase. Engineering expenditures have grown due to the costs of real estate
acquisition, a new activity in FY96, and due to increased personal services costs. Capital outlay for
computer equipment has occurred, and bridge inspection costs are up, as budgeted. The Building
Maintenance department has incurred greater charges for the maintenance of fixed assets and other
property. Parks Maintenance expenditures have increased due to the purchase of new playground units to
replace aging ones, along with increased expenditures for general maintenance and upgrade of City parks
and playgrounds through painting, sign replacement, the planting of trees, and landscaping.

Health and Welfare expenditures have increased 6.64%. Foster care and day care costs have increased
in the Social Services department. Comprehensive Services Act expenditures have risen due to increased
children in the program and more children in FY96 receiving care at very expensive facilities due to the high
level of supervised care they require.
Transfers to the Debt Service Fund are up 8.57% or $508,000. FY96 was the first year in which
principal payments on the 1994 VPSA and General Obligation Bonds were required. The principal
payments on these issues are paid in July and August respectively.
I would be pleased to answer any questions which City Council may have regarding the Monthly Financial
Statements.

Re: Acceptance of Bids on General Obligation Bonds, Series 1996
Dear Mayor and Members of Council:
We plan to request public bids on $31,300,000 of General Obligation
Public Improvement Bonds to be issued in January 1996. The bonds will be
marketed as a single issue with two components. The 1996A Series will be
comprised of $23,000,000 being issued pursuant to the Charter of the City and
approval of the qualified voters of the City at a referendum held on
November 8, 1994. The 1996B Series will be comprised of $8,300,000 being
issued in accordance with the Public Finance Act pursuant to a public hearing
held on October 18, 1995. We anticipate accepting bids from prospective
purchasers for the $31.3 million issue on January 18, 1996.
Typically, financial institutions that bid on our bonds prepare their bids
literally at the last moment based on the prevailing market rates on the day of
the bid. They then have couriers hand deliver the bid documents to the City
Clerk to be opened at a special meeting of City Council. Once bids are opened,
due to the varying interest rates throughout the life of the issue, the bond
maturity schedule and interest rates must be faxed to Craigie Incorporated, the
City's financial advisors, to compute the overall interest cost. City Council is
required to wait approximately two hours while the computations are being
prepared.
We would like to propose an alternative that would be more efficient for City
Council and potential bidders. Logistically it would be easier for financial
institutions, some of whom have offices in Richmond, to deliver their bids to
Honorable Mayor and Members
of City Council
December 18, 1995
Page 2
Craigie's office in Richmond. Craigie, with the oversight of City representatives
with authorization delegated by City Council, could then open and compute the
overall interest rate on the bids for purchase of the bonds. They would then
review the bids with the City representatives and recommend acceptance of the
lowest bid. City representatives would accept the lowest bid with a follow up
communication to City Council summarizing the bids and acceptance of the bid
with the lowest interest amount. This procedure would eliminate the need for
a special meeting of City Council and the two hour wait while the overall
interest costs are being computed. Handling the bid process for the issuance
of their bonds in this manner has become an accepted practice among other
localities.
We recommend that City Council adopt the accompanying resolution to
authorize the City Manager and Director of Finance to award the winning bid
and to affix the interest rates to be borne by the bonds. We would be pleased
to answer any questions you may have.

Re: General Obliqation Bond Issue
Dear Mayor Bowers and Council Members:
I am attaching a draft of the bond ordinance to be considered
by City Council at its December 18, 1995, meeting. This draft was
received via facsimile from bond counsel on Thursday afternoon,
December 14, 1995, at which time it was logistically impossible to
put it in the final form of an ordinance before the agenda
deadline. At Council's meeting on December 18, I will distribute
a final form of the ordinance to be adopted by City Council. I do
not anticipate that there will be any changes between the draft and
the final form. If any changes are necessary, I will advise City
Council of each change.
For the information of City Council, the provisions of the
bond ordinance are summarized as follows:
Authorizes the sale of Series 1996A and 1996B
bonds of the City in the total amount of
$31,300,000.
Pledges the full faith and credit of the City
to payment of principal, premium, if any, and
interest on the bonds.
Authorizes the Director of Finance to appoint
a Registrar and a Paying Agent.
4. Sets out the procedures for payment of
principal, premium, if any, and interest on
the bonds.
The Honorable Mayor and Members
of City Council
December 18, 1995
Page
Requires that the proceeds of the bonds be
used only for the purposes set out in
Ordinance Nos. 32131-080894, 32132-080894 and
32703-102395.
6. Provides for competitive sale of the bonds on
January 18, 1996.
Authorizes the Director of Finance to publish
a Notice of Sale in The Bond Buyer, a
Preliminary Official Statement and other
forms.
Authorizes the City Manager and Director of
Finance to receive proposals for the bonds and
to accept the proposal offering to purchase
the bonds at the lowest true interest rate not
to exceed 8%.
Provides for the Mayor to execute and deliver
an Official Statement in substantially the
form of the Preliminary Official Statement.
10. Establishes the form of the bonds.
11.
Directs the City Clerk to file a certified
copy of the bond ordinance with the Circuit
Court.
If City Council has any questions with respect to the
provisions of this bond ordinance, I will be pleased to discuss
them.
With kindest personal regards, I am
Sincerely yours,

ADDENDUM TO ROANOKE COUNTY WATER CONTRACT
II.
Backclround on the subject in chronological order is as follows:
The city owns and operates several facilities located in Botetourt
County. These facilities include the former Nursing Home, the
Juvenile Detention Center and the Crisis Intervention Center.
Drinking water service to these facilities has been provided by a spring
as the water source. The Virginia Department of Health (VDH) has
determined that the spring may be influenced by surface water. This
potential for contamination requires that the City extend public water
service to the facilities.
Roanoke County provides public water to southwestern Botetourt
County.
The January 27, 1995, Addendum to the 1979 Water Contract with
Roanoke County provides for the exchange of water between The City
of Roanoke and Roanoke County.
Botetourt County has elected to not participate in a project to provide
public water service to the Coyner Springs area.
Current situation is as follows:
The City owned facilities are proposed to be served by public water
main. This water main will be constructed, owned, and maintained by
the City of Roanoke. The estimated cost to construct the water main
is $310,000.

Roanoke County, upon execution of same by Roanoke County.
Public water service will be provided to existing City owned
facilities. Other alternative water sources have been studied
and found to be not feasible.

Amendments to Sewer Use Standards - Technical Based
Limits, pH, Language
Backqround in chronological order is as follows:
Sewer Use Standards of the City Code protects the Water
Pollution Control Plant from harmful discharges.
Industrial discharqes are requlated by the City's
Industrial Pretreatment Program as authorized by the
Sewer Use Standards. The Department of Environmental
Quality (DEQ) regulates the City's Pretreatment Program
by VPDES permit requirements.
Industrial Technical Based Metal Limits as located in
the Sewer Use Standards must be re-evaluated every five
(5) years per VPDES permit requirements. The limits
reflect industrial loading, land application of sludge,
VPDES discharge requirements, and water quality
standards. The Water Pollution Control Plant has
recently completed the re-evaluation.
II. Current situation is as follows:
DEQ has approved the re-evaluated technical based
limits and a relaxed pH limit (Attachment A). Some
technical based limits have become more stringent, some
have been relaxed, and some have remained the same
(Attachment B). The notice of modification to the
Pretreatment Program has been published in the local
newspaper for thirty (30) days and received no comment.
Pretreatment Audit performed by the DEQ on October 10,
1995, requests language for "gray water" be
incorporated in the Sewer Use Ordinance. Gray water is
water pumped from restaurant grease traps (Attachment
C, paragraph A.1).
Members, Water Resources Committee
December 11, 1995
Page 2
Council authorization is needed to amend the Sewer Use
Standards to incorporate the new technical based limits
for metals, to incorporate a relaxed pH limit, and the
language "gray water" as requested by DEQ (which is
wastewater pumped from grease traps).
III. Issues in order to importance
A. Timinq
B. Requirement
C. Funding
IV. Alternatives in order of feasibility are as
A.
are as follows:
follows:
Council authorize an amendment to the Sewer Use
Standards to incorporate the new technical based
limits, a relaxed pH limit, and the new language for
"gray water".
1. Timinq is important as industrial permits will
soon be up for renewal.
2. Requirement by DEQ's VPDES permits will be met.
3. Fundinq is not needed.
Council not authorize an amendment to the Sewer Use
Standards to incorporate the new technical based
limits, a relaxed pH limit, and the new language for
"gray water".
1. Timinq is a moot issue.
2. Requirement to meet DEQ's VPDES permit will not be
met. Enforcement actions could result.
3. Fundinq is a moot issue.
Members,

EPA Comments:
Modification to the
Approved Pretreatmen~
Proqram:
Planninq Statement:
Staff comments:
None
The proposed modification to
the approved pretreatment
program consists of revisions of
the local limits, including
deletion of an upper pH limit and
reducing the lower pH limit to 5.0
(approved by DEQ staff on August
9, 1995).
The pretreatment program for the
city of Roanoke was approved on
August 21, 1984, under
jurisdiction of EPA and modified
on December 2, 1993. On August
31, 1995, a letter was sent to the
Fifth PDC notifying them of the
proposed modification to the
program. No comments were
received.
State Water Control Law and the
Clean Water Act require Publicly
Owned Treatment Works to develop
programs to meet the requirements
of the State Permit Regulations
and General Pretreatment
Regulations. This is necessary to
regulate industrial pollutants
introduced to their treatment
works which have the potential of
causing plant upset, or
pass-through, or sludge
contamination.
Pretreatment Program Modification
VPDES Permit No. VA0025020
Page 3
Staff comments (cont'd.)
The city of Roanoke has developed
the above mentioned modification
to effectively administer the
program and control the industrial
users into the system. The VPDES
permit for the Roanoke STP
required a reevaluation of local
limits within one year of permit
reissuance. The reevaluation
determined that local limits
revisions were needed and changes
are proposed accordingly. Changes
in pH limits are also proposed and
are in compliance with federal and
State requirements.
STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS:
The staff recommends that the Director:
1. Approve the modification to the pretreatment program regulating
industrial discharges to the Roanoke sewage treatment works.
2. Direct the staff to notify the permittee of this approval.

which is currently available at a fair price.
3. Funding is partially available in Employee Parking Capital Account
008-056-9698-9003 to provide for the acquisition of the

III. Issues in order of importance are as follows:
A. Need
B. Timing
C. Estimated cost
D. Funding
IV. Alternatives in order of feasibility are as follows:
ao
Committee recommends that City Council authorize the
acquisition of all property rights needed in connection
with the two projects. Said property rights will be
fee simple, permanent easements, and temporary
construction easements across properties identified in
Attachments "A" and "B".
Need for property rights acquisition has been
established by the design of sewer interceptors
for Roanoke River and Tinker Creek.
Timing of property rights acquisition is critical
to avoid delay of project schedules.
Estimated cost to acquire the necessary property
rights is $250,000 on the two projects.
Funding totaling $250,000 is available in the
current Sewage Treatment Plant Expansion Bonds of
1994, Account No. 003-056-8465-9001, and may be
appropriated to accounts to be established by the
Director of Finance.
Roanoke River interceptor sewer property
rights acquisition - $200,000
Tinker Creek interceptor sewer property
rights acquisition - $50,000
Committee does not recommend that City Council
authorize the acquisition of property rights.
Need for property rights acquisition established
by design of the sewer interceptor projects would
not be met.

Timinq would cause delay of projects if property
rights are not acquired.
Estimated cost would need to be re-evaluated if
the projects are approved to proceed to the
property rights acquisition stage.
Fundinq would remain in the Sewage Treatment Plant
Expansion Bonds account.
Committee recommends that City Council concur in Alternative
"A" and take the following action:
Authorize the acquisition of fee simpler permanent
easements~ and temporary construction easements~ as
required, across properties identified in Attachments A
and B by making offers based on City records, or
individual appraisals and institute condemnation, as
necessary, for the two sewer interceptor projects.
ApproDriate $250~000 from the Sewage Treatment Plant
Expansion Bonds, Account No. 003-056-8465-9001, to
accounts to be established by the Director of Finance
entitled Roanoke River Interceptor Sewer Property and

Herber' ' Manager
INFILTRATION/INFLOW (I/I) REDUCTION PROGRAM
Background on the subject in chronological order is as follows:
City of Roanoke, Roanoke County, City of Salem, Town of Vinton, and
Botetourt County received a Special Consent Order from the State Water
Control Board in June of 1992 to address the infiltration/inflow being
experienced at the Water Pollution Control Plant.
B. Sewershed Evaluation Plan was submitted to the State Water Control
Board on September 9, 1992. Correcting problems in six of the fifteen
sewersheds identified was deemed to be the most cost-effective and
would have the most significant impact on reducing I/I to the plant.
Consultant contract awarded at City Council's regular meeting of
March 8, 1993, included various desiqn services identified through the
sewershed infiltration/inflow (Iff) reduction studies. The contract
anticipated subsequent phases to be based on preliminary design studies.
Three proiects previously under construction, PC-l, PC-2, and LR-5, have
been completed.
Three proiects, PC-6A, LR-3, and PC-4, are under construction. The
majority of construction on PC-4 is being done in conjunction with Peters
Creek Road extension.
II.
Current situation is as follows:
Construction on the remaining portion of PC-4 will begin as the Peters
Creek Road extension nears completion if the necessary property rights
have been acquired.
The maiority of the proposed construction will take place in existinq
sanitary sewer easements. Some existing sanitary sewers are being
relocated to minimize impact to structures in the vicinity. These
Members, Water Resources Committee
INFILTRATION/INFLOW (I/I) REDUCTION PROGRAM

situations will require the acquisition of replacement easements. Also,
existing easements do not provide for the temporary use of adjacent
property for construction purposes (construction easements); therefore,
it is necessary for the City to acquire additional easement rights to
construct the projects.
Authorization is needed to move forward with title work, appraisals,
negotiations, and closings for acquisition of property rights. Property
rights to be acquired are permanent easements and construction
easement.
II1o
Issues in order of importance are as follows:
A. Need
B. Timing
C. Estimated cost
D. Funding
IV.
Alternatives in order of feasibility are as follows:
Committee recommends that City Council authorize the acquisition of all
property riqhts needed in connection with project PC-4 currently being
designed as shown on Attachment A and providing no insurmountable
environmental problems are encountered. Said property rights will be
permanent and temporary construction easements across property
identified on Attachment A.
Need for property rights acquisition has been established by
design of I/I projects.
Timinq of property rights acquisition is critical to avoid delay of
project schedules.
3. Estimated cost to acquire the necessary property rights is
$15,000.
Funding is available in the current Sewer Fund Retained Earnings
account and may be appropriated to account number 003-056-
8464-9003 entitled I/I Property Rights Acquisition.
Members, Water Resources Committee
INFILTRATION/INFLOW (I/I) REDUCTION PROGRAM

Committee does not recommend that City Council authorize the
acquisition of property rights.
Need for property rights acquisition established by design of I/I
projects would not be met.
Timing would cause delay of projects if property rights are not
acquired.
Estimated cost would need to be reevaluated if the project is ever
approved to proceed to the property rights acquisition stage.
4. Fundinq would remain in Sewer Fund Retained Earnings account.
Recommendation is as follows:
Committee recommends that City Council concur in Alternative "A" and take
the following action:
Authorize the acquisition of permanent and temporary construction
easements, as required, across property identified on Attachment A by
making offers based on appraisals and institute condemnation if
necessary for Project PC-4.

The Honorable David A. Bowers, Mayor
and Members of City Council
Roanoke, Virginia
Dear Members of City Council:
Su~e~:
Request from Frontier Associate, Ltd., represented by Alton Prillaman,
attorney, that property located on Plantation Road, N. E., currently
known as Frontier Apartments, designated as Official Tax Nos.
3300104, 3300108 through 3300111 be rezoned from C-1, Office
District to RM-2, Residential Multi-family District.
I. Background:
A. Petition to rezone properties was filed on 10/11/95.
Purpose of rezonin,q request is to make existin,q residential use of the
property consistent with the zoning. Property is currently developed as the
Frontier Apartments. C-1 zoning permits multi-family dwellings as a special
exception use. The rezoning is being requested for financial investment
purposes.
Plannin(3 Commission public hearing was held on November 1, 1995. There
was no opposition to the rezoning request. Planning Commission members
voted 5-0 to recommend approval of the rezoning (Messrs. Bradshaw, Butler,
Chrisman, Jones and Mrs. Duerk voting in favor of the motion and Mrs. Coles
and Mr. Hill absent).
II. Issues:
Zoning of property is currently C-1. Zoning across Plantation Road is LM,
Light Manufacturing, zoning across Preston Avenue is C-2, and zoning
adjacent to the properties is RS-2, Single Family Residential.
Land use of property is currently for multi-family apartments Adjacent land
uses on the same side of Plantation Road are single family residences.
Commercial and industrial businesses are located along Plantation Road.

C. Neiohborhood omanization is the Williamson Road Action Forum.
D. Comorehensive Plan recommends:
1. Protectin(3 neiohborhood character and environmental quality.
Possible changes in land use in or near residential areas should be
carefully evaluated and designed to conserve and enhance
neighborhood quality.
2. Encouraaina a variety of housina choices in existina neighborhoods
through a balance of preservation, rehabilitation and new development.
3. Improvina existing neiqhborhood environments
III. Alternatives:
A. City Council recommend approval of the rezoning request.
1. Zonina is changed to RM-2 Multi-family Residential District.
2. Existina land use is permitted outright in the RM-2 District.
3. Neiqhborhood residential character maintained
4. ComPrehensive Plan followed
B. City Council recommend denial of the rezoninq request
1. Zonina remains C~1, Office District
2. Land use is still permitted in the C-1 District, but as a special exception
by the Board of Zoning Appeals.
3. Neiahborhood residential character could still be maintained.
4. Comprehensive Plan could still be followed.
Recommendation:
The Planning Commission recommends approval of the rezonina reauest by a yom
of 5-0 (Mrs. Coles and Mr. Hill absent). The property is currently developed as
multi-family apartments. The requested rezoning will assist the owners of the
property in securing financing to maintain the property as apartments. The change
in zoning will complement the existing residential character of the neighborhood and
the adjacent RS-2, Single Family Residential zoning.

ATTEST:
City Clerk.
Roanoke City Planning Commission
December 11, 1995
The Honorable David A. Bowers, Mayor
and Members of City Council
Roanoke, Virginia
Dear Mayor and Members of Council:
Su~e~:
Request from Kenneth L. and Michelle R. Taylor that a tract of land
containing approximately 0.5 acres located at 4541 Shenandoah
Avenue, Official Tax Number 6040315, be rezoned from C-2, General
Commercial District to RS-2, Residential Single Family District.
I. Back.qround:
Petition to rezone subject property from C-2 to RS-2 was filed on October 10,
1995.
Purpose of rezonin,q is to make the existing residential use of the property
consistent with the appropriate zoninq classification.
Property was subdivided in 1994 to separate the residential and commercial
uses on the original tract. A change in zoning was not pursued at that time.
II. Current Situation:
Petitioners have the property for sale as residential and desire to rezone the
property in order to make the use conforming and secure the financing for a
prospective buyer.
Property is adjacent to other residential uses which are separated
topographically from the commercial development on Shenandoah Avenue.
Plannin,q Commission public hearin,q was held on November 1, 1995. There
was no opposition to the rezoning request. Planning Commission voted 5-0
to recommend approval of the request (Messrs. Bradshaw, Butler, Chrisman,
Jones and Mrs. Duerk voting in favor of the motion and Ms. Coles and Mr.
Hill absent).

Members of City Council
Page 2
III. Issues:
Zoninq of property is C-2 This zoning classification exists because the
original property was a larger tract which included a commercial business
fronting on Shenandoah Avenue. The zoning of surrounding properties is
C-2, RS-2, and RM-1.
Land use of property is residential. Adjacent properties are residential.
Properties fronting on Shenandoah Avenue have commercial uses on them.
Access to the property is from a dedicated right of way on Shenandoah
Avenue. Other private roadways from Bainbridge Drive serve residences in
this area.
D. Nei,qhborhood is not represented by a neighborhood organization.
E. Comprehensive Plan recommends'
Nei,qhborhood character and environmental quality should b~,
protected. Possible changes in land use in or near residential areas
should be carefully evaluated and designed to conserve and enhance
neighborhood quality.
Development of new or existing commercial and industrial areas in th~.
city should be carefully planned and designed to promote quality
development and good land use.
IV. Alternatives:
A. City Council approve the rezonin,q request
Zoning is changed from C-2 to RS-2. This change is consistent with
the adjacent zoning pattern. Lot frontage will be only 30 feet in lieu of
the required 60 feet fro RS-2 district.
2. Existing residential land use becomes conforming.
3. Access not affected.
4. Neighborhood character maintained
Comprehensive Plan followed Residential area enhanced. Subject
property is not recommended for commercial development because of
Members of City Council
Page 3
B. City Council deny the rezoninq request.
1. ~ r,~QJ3j~-. Zoning does not reflect the existing land use.
Land use remains residential. Property remains non-conforming.
Financial assistance to maintain property as residential may be difficult
to obtain.
3. Access not affected.
Neiahborhood could be affected by encroachment of commercial
development should residential property be converted.
Comprehensive Plan not followed Commercial development of
subject property should not be advocated due to the surrounding
residential properties and the change in topography of the site.
V. Recomm ndation:
The Plannina Commission recommends approval of the rezoning request by a vote
of 5-0 (Mrs. Coles and Mr. Hill absent). The subject property is currently in use as a
residence and is surrounded by residential properties which are elevated above the
commercial corridor on Shenandoah Avenue.

PROPERTYADDRESS: 4541 Shenandoah Avenue
CITY: Roanoke COUNTY: Roanoke STATE: VA
ZIP: 24017 LENDER: Central Fidelity Mortgage Corp.
GENERAL COMMENTS:
The property's heating, plumbing and electrical systems appear to
be functioning properly to the best of your appraiser's knowledge.
No Adj. No Adjustment: This is used so that the reader can
= the subject and
easily recognlz that this appraiser is aware that
comparable differ in regard to a particular feature, but, in the
appraiser's opinion, an adjustment is not considered appropriate.
Every effort has been made to conform to FNMA/FHLMC guidelines; in
' r
many cases a strlcte interpretation has been employed.
All comparable sales are settled to the best of your appraiser's
knowledge. Verification is with Multiple Listing Service and/or
public records.
This appraisal is not valid without original photographs, sketch
and location map, Certification and Limiting Conditions, USPAP and
FIRREA statements (attached or on file with the client), Virginia
State Appraiser License number, seal, and orlglna signature.
Every effort has been made to use comparables that have sold
within six months of the date of this appraisal. Paramount to time
is matching the most similar sales to the subject. This at times
necessitates using comparables over six months old.
' n
The Scope of this appraisal report is the collectlo , verification
and formulation of the most current data in relation to the
subject property and to the market value estimate. This
information is processed through the three recognized approaches ' n
to value - Cost, Income, and Direct Sales Comparlso - and those
' e
approaches that are approprlat are then transmitted through the
appraisal report. All comparable data used are adjusted to the
subject property. The adjustment process is detailed within the
appropriate section of the report.
It is noted that individual adjustments for sales 1,2, and 3
exceed 6% (six), but the sales chosen are considered to be the
best available from the market search.
It is noted the net adjustments for comparable sale 1 exceed
15%(fifteen). This adjustment is larger than normal but the sale
chosen is considered the best available. Other sale analyzed would
have required less desirable adjustments and were not used for
that reason.
It is noted the price per living area for sales 1,3 varies by more'
than $10.00 per square foot, but the;sales chosen are considered
the best available.
The seller is paying some of the purchaseer's closing costs, which
is a typical practice in the area a~d has no effect on the
valuation.
The subject's current sales price is consistent with the above
sales analysis.
ADDENDUM
ADDENDUM TO NEIGHBORHOOD RATING
Subject is located in the Boulavard Estates development of Roanoke
City, VA. The dwelling sets approximately 75-100 yards off of
Shenandoah Avenue. The lot contains a long narrow strip with 30
feet of road frontage on Shanendoah Avenue (see tax map). The area
consists of single family, multi-family and commercial properties.
The single family dwellings are predominatly 1 and 1.5 story
ranging from 900 to 1400 square feet. Boundaries include
Shenandoah Avenue to the South, the Salem City limits to the West,
Oak Road to the North and Peters Creek to the East. Shenandoah
Avenue services the area and provides access to all public
amenities.
ADDENDUM TO CONDITION OF IMPROVEMENTS AND DEPRECIATION COMMENTS
Some water leakage in basement. The subject is located in a
commercial area and is zoned C-2 which is a commercial zoning. The
property is contiguous with a commercial lot with a building that
fronts Shenandoah Avenue. Because of this the property has some
external obsolecence. However, there are other residences located
next to the subject and in the opinion of this appraiser the
highest and best use of the subject is residential~
ADDENDUM TO MARKET CONDITIONS
MLS and public records indicate a steady resale of properties in
the neighborhood. MLS indicates a list-sale price ratio of 102.8%
and typical marketing times of 120-180 days. Market activity
remains steady. FHA, VA, and conventional financing is available
with no extraordinary fluctuations in interest rates or discount
points. Sellers are willing to pay a percentage of Buyer's costs,
depending on price range. The high ratio of list to sale price
reflects the addition of points and/or closing costs to the listed
sales price to effectively lower the buyer's up-front costs. This
is a common practice in the area. Properties must appraise for the
increased amount. No adjustment for sales concessions is
considered necessary up to a maximum of 4%, which is typicallu
paid for the buyer.

condominium units for a total of 216 housing units.
Petition to rezone the six contiguous parcels of land identified as Official Tax
Nos. 1290105, 1290107, 1290108, 1290131, 5500112 and 5500111 was filed

and convenience in the arrangement of land uses and their supporting
infrastructure;

Promote a development pattern in harmony with existing development
and the objectives of the city's comprehensive plan; and
Encourage the preservation of steep slopes; flood plains; historic
structures and areas; and unique, natural or geological formations.
Staff has met with petitioner's design/legal team on three occasions (9/8/95,
9/15/95 and 10/4/95) to identify issues and review preliminary design
schemes. Staff concems communicated to the petitioner were as follows: (1)

emergency access; (3) storm water management; (4) ridge line protection;
Members of Council

residential community.
No on-street parking be permitted within the proposed residential
clusters served by streets with less than a 30' paved width.
Neiohborhood meeting for residents of the Roberts Road area was held on
October 19, 1995. Representatives of the petitioner, the Roanoke City
Planning Department, and the Roanoke City Economic Development
Department were in attendance to explain the proposal and to respond to
questions. No citizens attended the meeting.
II. Current Situation:
Planning Commission public hearing was held on November 1, 1995. Mr.
Steve Laughlin, agent for the petitioner, appeared before the Commission to
present the proposed rezoning. Mr. Laughlin stated that Friendship Manor
had owned the property for a number of years and it was the intent of the
rezoning to provide for an up-scale residential development and to allow for
other uses to supplement the development. Mr. Laughlin discussed the
proposed proffers and described the proposed development noting that the
total development would allow 216 housing units including 79 courtyard
homes and 41 townhouses. He noted that development of the site would be
phased with the first phase to include construction of the public road
connecting with Duke of GIouchester Street and 34 housing units. Mr.
Laughlin then described the proposed commercial uses that would be
permitted on the C-2 portion of the site.
Mr. Kirk Lumsden from Lumsden Associates appeared before the
Commission to discuss the physical development of the site.
Members of Council

Mr. Marlles gave the staff report. He noted that the petitioner and his design
team had met with the City's development review staff on three occasions
and that all significant issues and concerns had been addressed. Mr. Marlles
stated it was staff's opinion that the development was consistent with the
objectives set forth in the comprehensive plan relative to RPUDs and
therefore recommended approval.
Mr. Bradshaw noted a concern relative to the area proposed for commercial
rezoning. After discussing the matter with staff, Mr. Bradshaw suggested
that the area proposed for C-2 could revert back if the RPUD were not
executed. He stated that some protection from a straight C-2 zoning of the
area was necessary, but on the other hand he understood that the RPUD
would have a need for some commercially-zoned complementary facilities.
Commission members, City staff and the petitioner's representative,
discussed the wording of the additional proffers (minutes attached).
No one from the public appeared before the Commission to speak in favor
or against the proposed development.
Amended Petition, dated 11/22/95, was filed on 11/22/95 and offered the
following conditions:
That the property will be developed in substantial conformity with the
Site Plan prepared by Lumsden and Associates, dated 10/11/95, a
copy of which is attached to the Petition for Rezoning as Exhibit B,
subject to any changes required by the city during site plan review.
No parallel on-street parking will be permitted on streets less than 30
feet in width serving residential units.
On-site signage will be limited to identification signage at the main
entrance and identification and directional signage within the
development.
Comprehensive development plans for each phase of development
will be submitted to the Planning Commission for review and approval
pursuant to Article V. of the Zoning Ordinance.
If no building permit has been issued, and if construction of the
residential units shown as Phase I on the proffered site plan prepared
by Lumsden and Associates, dated 10/11/95, is not begun within three
(3) years after the effective date of the ordinance rezoning the subject
property, the zoning classification of Official Tax No. 1290107 and
1290108 will revert to their previous zoning classification.
Members of Council

The portions of the two parcels identified as Official Tax Nos. 1290107
and 1290108 which are rezoned C-2, General Commercial District,
shall be used only for the purpose of operating a community center,
general offices, fitness center, medical clinic, restaurant, hotel/motel/
inn, or a group care facility subject to Section 36.1-560 of the Code of
the City of Roanoke (1979), as amended, and no Certificate of
Occupancy shall be issued for such commercial uses unless, and
until, building permits have been issued and construction has begun
on the first phase of the residential units.
Upon issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy for any use in the
development, access to the site from the Roberts Road neighborhood
shall be limited to:
emergency vehicles
construction traffic associated with the development
access to the existing occupied dwellings until these dwellings
or residents are displaced by new construction.
III. Issues:
A. Zoning of the subject property identified as Official Tax Nos. 1290105,
1290107 and 5500111 is RM-2, Residential Multifamily, Medium Density
District. Zoning of the property identified as Official Tax No. 1290108 is RS-
3, Residential Single Family District and C-2, General Commercial District.
Zoning of subject property identified as Official Tax No. 5500112 is RM-2,
Residential Multifamily, Medium Density District and C-2, General
Commercial District.
The surrounding zoning pattern is as follows: to the east RS-3, Residential
Single Family District and C-2, General Commercial District along Franklin
Road, $.W.; to the south along Franklin Road is C-2, General Commercial
District and C-1, Office District; to the west is RM-2, Residential Multifamily,
Medium Density District and C-2, General Commercial District; and to the
north is LM, Light Manufacturing District.
Proposed RPUD zoning permits a range of residential housing types,
including single family detached dwellings, two-family dwellings, townhouses
and multifamily dwellings as well as the following commercial uses provided
the total gross floor area dedicated for such uses does not exceed five
percent of the gross land area within the proposed RPUD district: day care
centers, community centers, general and professional offices, medical
office/clinics, personal service establishments, and neighborhood retail
establishments, among others.
Members of Council

Land use of the subject property is primarily undeveloped. The majority of
the subject property is covered by mature trees and other vegetation. A large
Colonial style structure existing on the site constructed in the 1950s as a
private residents will be preserved and adaptively roused for a community
canter primarily for the benefit of residents living in the proposed residential
community.
Land use in the surrounding area is as follows: to the east is a small
residential community consisting of single family houses (Roberts Road
neighborhood) and highway commercial along Franklin Road; to the south
are highway commercial uses fronting on Franklin Road; to the west aro
multifamily (Williamsburg Manor) and general commercial (K-mart) uses.
C=
Access and traffic: Access to the subject property will be via a public street
to Duke of Glouchester Street which is signalized at its intersection with
Franklin Road. The City's Traffic Engineer has estimated that approximately
1,600 vehicle trips per day would be generated by the proposed
development at completion. All internal streets serving the planned
residential community will be private roads that, with the exception of
pavement width, will be constructed to VDOT standards. The main entranca
to the development will be restricted to allow homeowner accass only.
Buffering/screening of site from adjacent single family neighborhood was
originally a concern of staff. Proffered site plan indicates that a 50 foot
landscaped buffer will be provided along the easterly property line which,
along with elevation differences, should be adequate to buffer the Roberts
Road neighborhood. The proffered site plan also indicates that the existing
trees and vegetation covering the steep slopes on the subject property
fronting on Franklin Road and 1-581 will be preserved as permanent open
spaca.
Storm water will be handled by grading the site to minimize storm water run-
off toward Franklin Road. Storm water run-off will be diverted to a storm
water management area located at the northeast corner of the property.
Details of storm water management for each phase of the proposed
residential development will be addressed as part of the comprehensive
development plan review process.
Nei(3hborhood on3anization for this area does not exist. Petitioner, at staff's
request, scheduled a neighborhood meeting on October 19, 1995. Residents
of the Roberts Road area were sent a flyer informing them of the proposed
development and notifying them of the meeting. No citizens attended the
meeting.
G. Comorehensive Dian recommends that:
Members of Council
Page 7
New large scale residential development on scarce vacant land should
be encouraged in order to expand Roanoke's population base and
respond to the demand for a diversity of housing choices.
Encourage a variety of housing choices in existing neighborhoods
through a balance of preservation, rehabilitation and new
development.
3. Encourage quality construction and attractive design.
Clustering of residential units to promote attractive residential settings
to preserve open space.
5. Minimize construction on steep slopes and in flood plain.
IV. Alternatives:
A. ' u~iJ.~,~B~Lt~Zorove the requested rezoning.
Zoning of subject property becomes RPUD, Residential Planned Unit
Development District, and C-2, General Commercial District.
Land use. becomes a planned residential community which at build-
out would consist of approximately 216 new housing units including
single family homes, townhouses and condominiums, based on
market demand. In addition, the proposed rezoning would permit the
following uses: community center, general offices, fitness center,
medical clinic, and group care facilities.
Access to the site would be provided by Duke of Glouchester Street
to a signalized intersection at Franklin Road. Internal circulation will
be provided by a new public street to be constructed to the main
entrance of the development. Internal roads will be restricted to
homeowners and will be maintained by a homeowner's association.
Bufferin(3 and screening of the site will be accomplished through the
permanent preservation of the existing vegetation shown as open
space on the proffered site plan and provision of a landscaped buffer
along the easterly property line.
Storm water would be addressed by grading the site to minimize
storm water runoff toward Franklin Road and diverting runoff to a
storm water area located at the northeast corner of the property.
Details of storm water management for each phase of the proposed
Members of Council
Page 8
development would be addressed as part of the comprehensive
development plan review process.
Neiohborhood impact would be minimal. Surrounding development
is screened by an extensive buffer consisting of permanent open
space and the provision of a landscaped buffer.
7. Comprehensive plan issues as set forth in III.G, would be addressed.
City Council deny the requested rezoning of the subject property to RPUD,
Residential Planned Unit Development District and C-2, General Commercial
District.
Zonin.q of the subject property would remain RM-2, Residential
Multifamily, Medium Density District and RS-3, Residential Single
Family District.
2. Land use of the subject property would remain primarily undeveloped.
3. Access and traffic would not be an issue.
4. Bufferino/screeninq would not be an issue.
5. Storm water would remain unchanged.
6. Neiahborhood would be unchanged.
o_C..~rehensive Dian recommendations as set forth could be
addressed at a later date.
V. Recommendation:
By a vote 5-0 (Mr. Hill and Mrs. Coles absent), the Planning Commission
recommends approval of the requested rezoning. The proposed residential
development is consistent with the residential development objectives contained in
Roanoke Vision, the City's comprehensive plan, as well as City Council's desire to
encourage additional middle- and upper-income housing within the City.

MINUTES
The regular meeting of the Roanoke City Planning Commission was held on Wednesday,
November 1, 1995, in the City Council Chambers, fourth floor, Municipal Building. The
meeting was called to order at 1:32 p.m. by Richard Jones, Vice Chairman. Attendance was
as follows:
Present:
John Bradshaw, Jr.
Gilbert Butler
Kent Chrisman
Barbara Duerk
Richard Jones
Absent: Carolyn Coles
Melvin Hill
Kenneth and Michelle Taylor
Official Tax No. 6040315. Shenandoah Avenue
Rezone from C-2 to RS-?
Mr. Roger Pauley (74 Bittersweet Lane, Hardy, VA) appeared before the Commission on
behalf of his daughter Michelle Taylor. He explained that the property had been purchased
several years ago and at the time of purchase his daughter had not been informed that the
property was zoned for commercial purposes. He said due to the location of the home on the
site, it was not conducive to commercial use and subsequently his daughter would like the
property zoned residential.
Mrs. Evelyn Lander gave the staff report noting that the property was currently being used
for residential purposes. She said that the area under consideration had originally been a part
of a larger tract that was subdivided a few years ago. She said that the commercial portion
was a separate use and the residential portion was accessed by a driveway on Shenandoah
Avenue. Mrs. Lander noted that the comprehensive plan recommended that neighborhood
character and environmental quality be protected and that development of new or existing
commercial and industrial areas in the city should be carefully planned and designed to
promote quality development and good land use. She stated that staff was recommending
approval of the request.
Mr. Jones asked for comments from the Commission and/or the audience.
There being none, Mr. Chrisman moved to approve the request. The motion was seconded
by Mrs. Duerk and approved 5-0.

Rezone from C-1 to RM-~
Mr. Alton Prillaman, attorney, appeared before the Commission and stated that request was
to bring Frontier Apartments into conformity with their zoning classification. He said that
the request was to rezone to residential multifamily so that the apartments would not be a
nonconforming or grandfathered use.
Mr. Butler asked why the petitioner wanted to correct the nonconforming use.
Mr. Prillaman responded that during the refinancing process, the lending institution had
asked that the units be brought into conformity.
Mrs. Lander gave the staff report noting that a rezoning of the Frontier Apartments would
make an existing residential use consistent with the zoning. She noted that the C-1 zoning
designation did allow apartments as special exceptions, but that lending institutions preferred
that the apartments be located in the correct zoning designation. She noted that the
comprehensive plan recommended the protection of neighborhood character and
environmental quality; encouragement of a variety of housing choices in existing
neighborhoods; and improvement of existing neighborhood environments. She stated that
staff was recommending approval of the request.
Mr. Jones asked for questions from the Commission and/or the audience.
There being none, Mr. Bradshaw moved to approve the request. The motion was seconded
by Mr. Butler and approved 5-0.

Mr. Gilbert Butler stated that he would be stepping down because he had ownership interest
in a parcel with a common boundary with the petitioner's property. At this point, Mr. Butler
left the meeting.
Mr. Steve Laughlin, agent for the petitioner, appeared before the Commission. He stated
that the Commission had before them an amended petition, which had not been formally
Roanoke City Planning Commission
Page 3
November 1, 1995
filed. He stated that he would like to discuss the proffers with the Commission and see if
there were any additional proffers that needed to be made.
Mr. Laughlin stated that Friendship Manor had owned the property for a number of years
and had determined that Roanoke was void of an upscale residential neighborhood and it was
the intent of the rezoning to provide for this upscale development and to allow for other uses
to supplement the development. He said that the decisions on the parameters of the
development had been based on the market studies done by Martin Research and on
information received from realtor focus groups. He described the site as being located
between 1-581 and Franklin Road. He then read the proffers set out in his amended petition,
as follows: (1) that the property will be developed in substantial conformity with the site
plan prepared by Lumsden and Associates, dated 10/11/95, a copy of which is attached to the
Petition for Rezoning as Exhibit B, subject to any changes required by the City during site
plan review; (2) no parallel on-street parking will be permitted on streets less than 30 feet in
width serving residential units; (3) on-site signage will be limited to identification signage at
the main entrance and identification and directional signage within the development; and (4)
comprehensive development plans for each phase of development will be submitted to the
Planning Commission for review and approval pursuant to Article V of the Zoning
Ordinance. He said that there could possibly be another proffer relative to access to the
development from the Roberts Road neighborhood. He stated that the issue of access had
been discussed with staff and that he was proffering that no residents of Southwood would
enter or exit from Roberts Road, and that the only entrance would be from the signalized
intersection at Franklin Road and Duke of Gloucester, as set out on the site plan. He said
that the proffer would have to provide for the access to the two existing structures from
Roberts Road and that would be worked out in the amended petition.
Mr. Laughlin said that the site itself was composed of basically two components - the
residential neighborhood and the miscellaneous services provided in the proposed C-2
district. He said that the residential development would consist of three different types of
residences - detached, courtyard (patio) homes; attached townhouse homes; and 2 separate
condominium buildings. Mr. Laughlin described the special amenities of the different type
homes, noting that the price range would be between $150,000 and $300,000. He said that
the total development would allow 216 units, including 79 courtyard and 41 townhouse. He
said that anticipated the entire project being phased, with the first phase including the public
road connecting with Duke of Gloucester and Franklin Road and 34 units.
Mr. Laughlin stated that he had met with City staff on a number of occasions, seeking input
and guidance. He said that the C-2 portion of the site, which contains the existing manor
house, was proposed for use as a community center, general office, medical clinic, group
care facility and possibly a restaurant.

November 1, 1995
Mr. Laughlin stated that Kirk Lumsden would discuss the grading and other infrastructure
questions with the Commission.
Kirk Lumsden from Lumsden and Associates appeared before the Commission. He discussed
the road design, noting that the initial road would be the extension of Duke of Gloucester
Street into the project. He said that the roadway would be a public road designed to the City
of Roanoke standards and end in a cul-de-sac. He said that all the internal roadways would
be private roads, with would give the developers a little more flexibility in designing the
units. Mr. Lumsden discussed the grades in the area and the amount of cut that would be
needed to install the private roadways. Mr. Lumsden also discussed water and sewer, noting
the pipe sizes and availability of sewer and water to the site. He also discussed storm
drainage and noted that a storm drainage system was being developed for the site.
Mr. Lumsden stated that there would be on-street parking for guests within the development,
as well as two car garages and driveways for the owners.
Mr. Bradshaw asked what the maximum grades of the proposed public and private streets
would be.
Mr. Lumsden responded that the public street grade was 7% and the private street was
between 9 and 10%, both of which were under the maximum allowable grade of 12%.
Mrs. Duerk questioned the location of the entranceway and the length of the public roadway.
She asked if there would be a way for people to access the rear of their property from the
public roadway.
Mr. Lumsden stated that the grade would prohibit such an access.
Mr. Jones asked if a fence were needed along the roadway.
Mr. Lumsden stated that was up to the owners, but he did not think that would be
aesthetically pleasing.
Mrs. Duerk asked why the entrance was not located further west.
Mr. Laughlin responded that the location of the C-2 uses was a factor in the location of the
entranceway because it was the desire to have a public road abut the C-2 property. He also
noted that the entranceway had not been finalized and that a turnaround would have to be
located so that it did not interrupt the units.

November 1, 1995
Mrs. Duerk asked what other amenities were proposed for the site.
Mr. Laughlin responded that nature trails had been talked about, as had a fitness center. It
was also noted that sidewalks were planned, where topography allowed.
Mrs. Duerk asked if there was any planned open space green areas.
Mr. Laughlin pointed out the areas planned for open space, noting that the white areas on the
plan, as well as the green areas were planned as open space.
Mrs. Duerk stated that she hoped the developer would take into consideration the possibility
of planting space for residents, as she had seen that type of amenity in other developments..
Mr. John Marlles gave the staff report. He stated that Residential Planned Unit
Developments (RPUD) were designed to achieve the following objectives: (1) provide the
opportunity to meet the diverse housing needs of the city residents; (2) provide for the
construction and rehabilitation of housing and the provision of moderate income housing; (3)
promote superior land planning, design, greater efficiency, economy and convenience in the
arrangement of land uses and their supporting infrastructure; (4) provide safe, efficient access
and traffic circulation; (5) promote a development pattern in harmony with existing
development and the objectives of the city's comprehensive plan; and (6) encourage the
preservation of steep slopes, flood plains; historic structures and areas, and unique, natural
or geological formations.
Mr. Marlles noted that over the past several months, the petitioner and his design team had
met with the City's development review staff on three occasions and issues and concerns had
been discussed and worked out. He complimented the petitioners on their willingness to
work with staff. He said that he thought the development met the objectives of the RPUD
District. He then reviewed the comprehensive plan recommendations relative to RPUDs,
noting the following: (1) new large scale residential development on scarce vacant land
should be encouraged in order to expand Roanoke's population base and respond to the
demand for a diversity of housing choices; (2) encourage a variety of housing choices in
existing neighborhoods through a balance of preservation, rehabilitation and new
development; (3) encourage quality construction and attractive design; (4) clustering of
residential units to promote attractive residential settings to preserve open space; and (5)
minimize construction on steep slopes and in flood plain. Mr. Marlles further stated that it
was staff's opinion that the development accomplishes most, if not all, the comprehensive
plan objectives.

November 1, 1995
Mr. Marlles stated that, at the request of staff, the applicant had held a neighborhood
meeting on October 19, 1995, and that no residents attended the meeting. Mr. Marlles stated
he took that as a positive reflection on the development.
Mr. Marlles further stated that review of the development by the Commission would not stop
after the Commission took action on the rezoning. He said that it was proffered the each
phase would be reviewed and approved by the Commission as part of the comprehensive
development plan review process, so the Commission would have an opportunity to see the
development through to fruition. He said that staff was recommending approval of the
request. He said that staff felt the development was also consistent with City Council's goal
to encourage middle and upper income housing in the City.
Mrs. Duerk asked if viewsheds had been considered.
Mr. Marlles responded that that issue had been discussed. It was staff's opinion that with
the preservation of the existing vegetation and the fact that the homes in Phase I would only
be one and two stories, the issue had been addressed adequately.
Mr. Bradshaw noted his concern about rezoning multifamily land to C-2 adjacent to Roberts
Road. He noted that if the RPUD were not developed, there would be a commercially zoned
20 tract next to the residential area. Mr. Bradshaw said that he had no problem with
complementary C-2 uses within the RPLID, but would like some protection for the future.
Mr. Marlles responded that the original reason for the C-2 area was to provide for several
commercial uses that were not already permitted under the RPUD district. He said that there
were several ways to handle the situation. He said that one alternative was to amend the
RPUD regulations to include the other commercial uses or rezone the area within the RPIJD
and proffer the specific uses. He said that the petitioner could proffer specific commercial
uses for the area within the RPUD or possibly provide a proffer that would fie the C-2
zoning into the construction of the residential development on the RPUD zoned land.
Mr. Bradshaw suggested that the C-2 could revert back if the RPUD were not executed, lie
again stated that some protection from a straight C-2 zoning of the area was necessary, but
on the otherhand he understood that the RPLID would have a need for some commercially
zoned complementary facilities.
Mr. Laughlin said that his clients were looking for assurances that the commercial uses
necessary for the development would be allowed. He said that he had no problem with a
reversion clause.
Roanoke City Planning Commission
Page 7
November 1, 1995
Mr. Bradshaw suggested that the wording of the proffer could include that the C-2 zone
would be used in conjunction with the development of the RPUD and be limited to the uses
that were set out by Mr. Laughlin. Mr. Bradshaw said that he saw a real danger in zoning
the area to C-2 without restricting the C-2 uses. He also suggested that wording to the
effect that if the RPUD failed within three years, the whole tract would revert to its original
zoning.
Mr. Laughlin stated that his clients could live with that.
Mr. Talevi asked Mr. Laughlin if the C-2 uses would be located on tracts identified by tax
nos. 1290107 and 1290108 and if he anticipated putting any uses other than C-2 uses on
those parcels.
Mr. Laughlin stated he did not.
Mr. Talevi asked Mr. Laughlin if he would be willing to proffer that the tracts be used for
community center, general offices, fitness center, medical clinic, and group care facilities.
Mr. Laughlin said that he would and that he would also like to add a restaurant and a motel
to the permitted uses.
Mr. Bradshaw and Mr. Talevi discussed the hotel/motel use and the possible addition of a
"sunset clause. ~
Mr. Talevi asked Mr. Bradshaw when he envisioned the clause being triggered or when
could the C-2 development begin.
Mr. Bradshaw said that the development could begin concurrent with or following the
residential development. He said that the C-2 development could be tied to Phase 1.
Mr. Talevi suggested that the assurance could rest with the issuance of a building permit or
the beginning of construction within three years of date of the rezoning, otherwise the C-2
zoning would revert and the uses on the C-2 section would be limited to those specified.
Mr. Bradshaw asked Mr. Laughlin if any of the C-2 uses would feed directly into Roberts
Road.
Mr. Laughlin responded that was correct.

Mr. Bradshaw stated that the proffer should be clarified relative to access to the C-2 portion
of the property.
Mr. Laughlin stated that was part of the previous proffer, that no access from the Southwood
development would be in the residential or the C-2 zoned portion of the RPUD.
Mr. Jones asked Mr. Talevi to read the proffer back to the Commission.
Mr. Talevi stated the following, "with respect to the 1290107 and 1290108 properties, the
developer will use those two parcels for either a community center, general offices, fitness
center, medical clinic, restaurant, group care facilities, hotel/motel or inn and the developer
has further proffer that if no building permit has been issued and construction has not begun
(and staff has a standard proffer for that kind of language) within three years from the date
of the rezoning, the rezoning on the C-2 parcels will revert to RM-2 in one case and RS-3
in the other.
Mr. Jones stated that it was his understanding that the building permit would be issued for
the Phase 1 residential development.
Mr. Talevi stated that was correct. He then told Mr. Laughlin that it was not clear to him
where Phase 1 was located. He said that if it was clearly set out on the filed site plan, then
that was acceptable.
Mr. Laughlin pointed out the area and noted that it was clearly indicated on the plans.
Mr. Bradshaw asked if a statement could be added that the C-2 elements would be used in
association with the basic intent of the project.
Mr. Talevi stated that he thought the inn would be used by only those able to pass through
the gated entrance to the property.
Mr. Bradshaw stated that he wanted to make sure that there was no access to the C-2 uses
from Roberts Road.
Mr. Talevi stated that it was his opinion that substantial conformity with the site plan
envisioned only one access - from Duke of Gloucester Street.
After discussion, Mr. Bradshaw withdrew his request to add anything else to the proffer.

November 1, 1995
Mr. Jones asked if the proffer offered protection that the C-2 elements would be constructed
to complement the residential units; e.g., by function and not necessarily architectural style.
Mr. Talevi stated he knew of no provision in the zoning ordinance that would permit the City
to require that a hotel/motel be used primarily by persons in the neighborhood.
Mrs. Duerk asked if there was any assurance that when the developers were marketing the
units that the prospective buyers would be notified of the proposed C-2 development.
Mr. Talevi stated there was no way the City could require the developer to tell prospective
buyers about the proposed C-2 development, but that it any prospective buyer should try to
find out all information about properties they were purchasing.
Mr. Bradshaw asked if staff recommended approval subject to the proffers set forth.
Mr. Marlles stated that staff was recommending approval.
Mr. Jones asked if there were further comments.
Mr. Laughlin stated that he and his clients were in agreement with the proffers as proposed.
He also stated he appreciate the Commission's willingness to work with them and the
cooperation from staff.
There being no further discussion, Mr. Chrisman moved that the request be approves subject
to the amended proffers. The motion was seconded by Mr. Bradshaw and approved 4-0, as
follows:
Mr. Bradshaw - yes
Mr. Chrisman - yes
Mrs. Duerk- yes
Mr. Jones - yes
4. A~proval of Minutes - October 4. 1995

Mr. Marlles stated that the Commission's November 15 work session would be
a meeting of the Ordinance/Names Subcommittee to discuss the proposed
amendments to the sign ordinance. He stated that even though the
subcommittee would be meeting, all Commission members were invited if they
desired input into the discussion.
Mr. Marlles also asked for a motion to set a public hearing for December 6,
1995, for the proposed historic designation of a portion of the Gainsboro
neighborhood. A motion was made by Mrs. Duerk, seconded by Mr.
Bradshaw and unanimously approved to set a public hearing for December 6,
1995.
o
Mrs. Duerk asked the status of her request that the Commission be briefed on
Council action on Commission matters. Mr. Marlles advised that the Council
action on Commission matters had been incorporated into the Department's
quarterly newsletter.
o
Mrs. Duerk mentioned that she had been approached by a County Planning
Commissioner about the necessity of putting a sidewalk on Franklin Road in
front of the proposed RPUD project. Mr. Marlles stated that was a good
suggestion and would be looked at under comprehensive development plan
review for the site.
Mrs. Duerk mentioned the open space/greenway planning effort and stated that
a meeting would be held on 11/8 to consider the plan. She invited those
interested to attend.
Mr. Marlles mentioned that the Commission would be meeting with the
County Commission on 11/15 at 6:00 p.m. at Ye Olde English Inn.
There being no further discussion, the meeting was adjourned at 2:50 p.m.
