OFFICERS PRESENT: W. Robert Herbert, City Manager; James D. Ritchie, Sr.,
Assistant City Manager; Wilbum C. Dibling, Jr., City Attorney; James D. GHsso,

HEARING OF CITIZENS UPON PUBLIC MATTERS: None.
At 12:36 p.m., the Mayor declared the meeting in recess until

At 12:40 p.m., the meeting reconvened in the Emergency
Operations Center Conference Room, Room 159, Municipal Building,
215 Chumh Avenue, S. W., Roanoke, Virginia, Mayor Bowers presiding,
and all Members of the Council and Officers as abovelisted in
attendance.
The Mayor advised that the Council would continue its Visioning
Workshops, and called upon Dr. Robert E. Matson, Professor and
Director for Leadership Development, University of Virginia, to continue
the process.
Dr. Matson advised that the workshop would focus on
continuation of the discussion of Council's Vision Statement and action
statements regarding Effective Government, Economy, Education, and
Quality of Life. Secondly, he stated that he would like for Council to
identify the key stakeholders to be involved in the process for input.
243
Barry L. Key, Manager, Office of Management and Budget,
advised that at the conclusion of the workshop on December 27, 1995,
Council requested that the Vision/Action Statements be referred to a
grammatical subcommittee for review; whereupon, he presented the
Vision/Action Statements with grammatical corrections.
Council approved, in draft form, the following Vision/Action
Statements; however, inasmuch as there were still questions in regard
to grammatical content, it was the consensus that the statements would
be reviewed by Nancy Patterson, Director, CITY School, for accuracy.
Roanoke City Council Vision Statement
Roanoke, "The Star City," appreciating its past and
planning for a shining future, will provide a superior
quality of life through educational, economic and cultural
opportunities for all people who live, work and visit here.
Effective Govemment
The City of Roanoke will be a catalyst for shaping and
achieving the future of our community. City government
will be participatory, responsive and efficient, valuing
diverse community involvement, publiclpdvate
partnerships and regional cooperation. Citizens will be
involved in the establishment of community priorities. Our
facilitative government will bring together all available
resources to meet the challenges of the 21st century.
Economy
Roanoke, with its vibrant downtown, will be a dynamic,
diverse regional center of commerce and tourism,
competing effectively in the global economy. To enhance
economic opportunities, we will promote regional
cooperation, nurture growth in existing business and
recruit attractive new business and industry. Roanoke will
be a destination for people seeking a unique combination
of scenic, cultural and recreational attractions.
Education
Roanoke will be a "learning" community, providing the
necessary educational resources and opportunities for all
persons to develop to their maximum potentials. Through
community involvement and utilization of the latest
technology, we will provide quality public education. We
will strengthen our cooperation with area colleges and
universities and expand continuing education to promote
an environment of life-long learning.
Quality of Life
Roanoke will be a community where every person and
every family is important and respected. We will be a
diverse, urban community of stable, safe, caring and
friendly neighborhoods. We will protect our natural
environment and promote cultural, social, and recreational
opportunities that encourage present and future
generations to choose Roanoke as their home.
There was discussion as to whether each Action Statement
would list high or medium priority items; whereupon, it was agreed that
each page would be identified as a "draft working document"; items
listed under each Action Statement would be identified as issues
instead of high/medium priority items, with the addition of a heading
entitled, "Other Issues", which would enable stakeholders to identity
issues that were not previously listed.
The City Manager pointed out that the School Board will look to
Council for major infrastructure needs; whereupon, it was agreed that
the City administration would draft appropriate wording in the
Education Action Statement and report to Council.
Dr. Matson led Council Members in an exercise to identity the
major stakeholders in the process; whereupon, the following groups
were listed:
Appointed Boards, Commissions and Committees of the City
Architectural Review Board
City Planning Commission
Roanoke City School Board
Roanoke Redevelopment and Housing Authority
Roanoke Neighborhood Partnership
Citizens Services Committee
City Employees
Former Members of City Council
Roanoke Valley Regional Chamber of Commerce

Department of Rehabilitative Services
Blue Ridge Community Services
ChurcheslMinistedal Associations

Junior League

Dr. Matson advised that a subcommittee was needed to "craft
out" the Vision/Action Statements as revised and to prioritize issues,
which would involve Council Members working in conjunction with City
staff; and reporting back to the full Council with recommendations on
how to proceed; whereupon, Council Members Bowles and Wyatt
volunteered to work with City staff.
It was the consensus that when the draft documents are
presented to the community, citizens would be asked to list their ideas
under the category, "Projects Suggested By Citizens"; and a
suggestion was offered that Council Members would serve as group
facilitators and lead round table discussions which would send a
message to the community that Council is not conducting business as
usual but promoting a participatory form of govemment which would
allow citizens to be a partner in the process.
At 1:55 p.m., the Mayor declared the meeting in recess until 2:00
p.m.
At 2:00 p.m., the meeting reconvened in the Council Chamber,
with Mayor Bowers presiding, and the following Members of the

The Honorable David A. Bowers
Mayor and Members of Council
I am the convener for a"~roup" of men who are very interested in cha~ging the
status of select communities. We would alter the negative economic growth,
improve the academic performance of our youth, reduce and/or elimate the need
for aborted pregnancy, youth crime and increase employment among the unemployed
youth. A tall order you may think. We agree, that why we are interested. Old
groups, old efforts have not had a significant result for the most of the
citizens of the "select" communities. We are prepared to work with the govern-
ment, we are prepared to work as a member of the TEAM, but only if we lead in
this democratic environment.
The HENRY STREET project appears to be an~excellent point for such a team effort.
It has the historicity, the economic resources, the interest of members of most
of the "select"corm~ities. The governments support, the private sectors' accep-
tability the citizens interest and our willingness to lead. We support the
~fforts being made to have this project be significantly different~ in its econo-
mic impact on the communities that need it most.
We will be working with you. We hope it will be as a member of your/our govern-
ments' team. We thank you for hearing our interest in this Henry ~n~-~e~--We
w~-ye~-~e~em~e-~e-e~-e~e~v Street initiative. We waite for your response to
our offer. We are p&emeeR-~p pleased to see the interest of the Black Concerned
~itizems. We support their positions and their continuing efforts to make this
real to and for every day citizens.

Council Report No. 96-102
Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council
Roanoke, Virginia
Dear Mayor Bowers and Members of City Council:
SUBJECT: INSTALLATION OF NEW TRAFFIC SIGNALS
Background on the subject in chronological order is as follows:
The City of Roanoke has 131 intersections controlled by traffic signals. There
are presently 14 intersections that qualify for traffic signalization in accordance
with federal specifications found in the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control
Devices (MUTCD) (see Attachment A).
The 1996 General Obligation Bond Issue provides fundin.q in the amount of
$500,000 for the signalization of up to 5 intersections. One of these
intersections, Hollins Road and Old Mountain Road is currently under
construction.
C. The intersections of Main Street, Elm Avenue and Ferdinand Avenue, S.W., and
Hershber.qer Road and Westside Boulevard, N.W., are ready for traffic si.qnals
to be designed and constructed.
II.
Current situation is as follows:
An advertisement for consultant services for the design of traffic signals was
published in the August 6, 1995, issue of the Roanoke Times.
Mattern & Craig, Inc., of Roanoke was selected to perform design services
following review of consultant qualifications and interviews.
The proposed agreement with Mattern & Craig, Inc., provides for the
engineering design of two intersections. These intersections are Main Street,
Elm Avenue and Ferdinand Avenue, S.W., and Hershberqer Road and Westside
Boulevard , N.W. The contract will permit one additional intersection to be
added at a later date.
III.
Issues
A.
B.
in order of importance are as follows:
Public Safety
Fund n.q
C. Schedules.
Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council
INSTALLATION OF NEW TRAFFIC SIGNALS
February 5, 1996
Page 2
IV.
Alternatives in order of feasibility are as follows:
Appropriate $60,000from the 1996 General Obligation Bond proceeds to fund
an engineering contract with Mattern & Craig, Inc. and pay the cost of aerial
mapping for the proposed intersection signalization projects at Main Street, Elm
Avenue and Ferdinand Avenue, S.W., and Hershberger Road and Westside
Boulevard, N.W.
Public Safety will be improved with construction of the proposed turn
lane and traffic signals.
Funding totaling $328,000 is available from the Streets and Sidewalks
Category of the 1996 General Obligation Bonds and may be appropriated
to an account to be titled Traffic Signals - Install New Signals.
Schedules for the construction of the proposed improvements will be
expedited by having a consultant perform the design.
Appropriate $8,000 from the 1996 General Obligation Bond proceeds to pay
the cost of aerial mapping for the intersection signalization projects at Main
Street, Elm Avenue, and Ferninand Avenue, S.W., and Hershberger Road and
Westside Boulevard, N.W. Engineering design will be performed by City staff.
Public safety will be improved with construction of the proposed turn
lane and traffic signals.
Fundinq totaling $328,000 is available from the Streets and Sidewalks
Category of the 1996 General Obligation Bonds and may be appropriated
to an account to be titled Traffic Signals - Install New Signals.
Schedules for the construction will be delayed as much as a year due to
availability of City staff resources.
Do not appropriate 960,000 from the 1996 General Obligation Bond proceeds
to fund an engineering contract with Mattern & Craig, Inc. and pay the cost of
aerial mapping for the proposed intersection signalization projects at Main
Street, Elm Avenue and Ferdinand Avenue, S.W., and Hershberger Road and
Westside Boulevard, N.W.
Public Safety will not be improved with construction of the proposed
turn lane and traffic signals.
Fund n.q totaling $328,000 will remain available from the 1996 General
Obligation Bonds·
Schedules for the construction of the proposed improvements will be
delayed.

Traffic volurues continue to ~row on an annual basis in the City of Roanoke. This trend is projected
to continue, and as it due~, mo~ intersections will be added to the overall list of candidates for
signalization. Based upon past experience, Roanoke can expect its citizens to place strong emphasis
on the need to signalize a patlicular intersection in any given yea~ due to traffic delays and/or a high
number of tra~c accidents. These legitimate needs must continue to be met to improve the efficient
and safe movement of traffic tluough heavily traveled intersections.

development, implementaton, and operation of
programs and services must submit a local plan to
the Board of Youth and Family Services for
approval.
City Council approved the local plan on October 23~ 1995
which was submitted to the State Department of Youth and
Family Services for review and submission to the Board of
Youth and Family Services.
The City of Roanoke is to receive fundinq through
VJCCCA in the amount of $467~794 for six months
beginning January 1, 1996 through June 30, 1996 for
the 1995-96 fiscal year. This amount does not
include funding for the secure detention home.
For the 1996-97 and 1997-98 fiscal years, the City
of Roanoke is to receive $935~587 for each fiscal
year.
o
The VJCCCA requires the city to maintain its
funding level based on the amount of local dollars
supporting block grant programs as of the fiscal
year ending June 30, 1995. The City of Roanoke
expended $501~932 as its local contribution to the
operation of the block grant programs for the 1994-
95 fiscal year. This will be the maintenance of
effort level matching the VJCCCA funding from the
Department of Youth and Family Services.
The amount of funding for operations including
state and local revenues for the six months
beginning January 1 through June 30, 1996, will be
$718~760. This is $170~926 more than the current
appropriations. The amount of funding for the
fiscal years 1996-97 and 1997-98, will be
$1~437~519 each year.
Utilization of the funding through the VJCCCA will be
for the continuation of four block grant programs and the
addition of nine new service programs for the juvenile
justice population in Roanoke City.
The four continuation programs to be funded through
the VJCCCA and local funds are:
Youth Haven I post-dispositional group home
for males
b. Sanctuary/Crisis Intervention Center
c. Juvenile Outreach Detention
Program
Supervision
d. Family Oriented Group Home Program (FOGH)
2. New programs to be established with VJCCCA funds
include:
a. Substance abuse assessment and treatment at
(1) Court Service Unit
(2) Youth Haven I
Intensive Family Counseling and aftercare at
Youth Haven I,
c. Detention Home bed purchase,
d. Electronic monitoring through outreach
detention program,
Intensive supervision program through the
Juvenile Court Service Unit,
Intensive Outreach Program through
Sanctuary/Crisis Intervention Center,
g. Street Law Program through the Court Service
Unit,
h. Enhanced Community Service Program
III.
The establishment of these services will enhance
and add to the public safety programming for the
juvenile Justice system and provide for
rehabilitation, community supervision and family
preservation efforts. These services will provide
sanctions, progressive treatment to juvenile
offenders, and/or their families in a community-
based system of programs and services.
ISSUES
Need for additional services have been documented for the
past two to three years. A waiting list for services
sometimes exists in our present juvenile justice
programs.
Fundinq from the State of Virqinia to begin new and/or
enhance current services is available through the
Virginia Juvenile Community Crime Control Act of 1995.
IV. ALTERNATIVES
City Council approve the establishment of eiqht grant
funded positions in the approved plan and authorize the
City Manager to approve the expenditures of funding to
continue the four block grant programs and establish nine
new services.
1. Need for Additional Services
Addition of the new programs and services will
increase the numbers of youth and/or their
families who could be served.
Addition of these programs will allow for the
provision of services in areas not previously
addressed by the city's juvenile justice
programs.
Fundinq from State of Virqinia will be appropriated
to maintain present services and establish
additional services as proposed.
Do not endorse proposed plan of services by resolution
and do not authorize the City Manager to establish new
positions and provide for the continuation of present
block grant programs and the provision of nine new
services to serve youth and their families.
Capacity. Programs and services will decrease and
the number of youth and families reached will
decline.
WRH:gr
cc:
Funding. The available funding for continuation of
present services and establishment of new services
will be forfeited.
RECOMMENDATIONS
City Council concur with Alternative A and endorse the
plan of services and authorize the City Manager to
establish eight grant funded positions and provide for
nine new services to youth and their families.
Appropriate $170~926 in additional state funding, as per
the attached budget.

Honorable Mayor and Members
of City Council
Roanoke, Virginia
Dear Mayor and Members of Council:
The $31,300,000 1996 General Obligation Public Improvement Bond
Issue is now complete. The initial development of our current (1996-2000)
Capital Improvement Program began in 1993 with the Office of Management
and Budget requesting capital project needs from all department managers and
School Administration. An administrative Capital Budget Team was used to
prioritize all projects into categories for the City Manager to formulate
recommendations to City Council. City Council conducted a public hearing to
receive citizen input on the proposed Capital Improvement Program. City
Council adopted the Capital improvement Program on August 8, 1994 and
authorized a public referendum forthe issuance of $23 million general obligation
bonds. The estimated interest rate used in 1994 was 7%. Roanoke City voters
on November 8, 1994 overwhelmingly (82%) approved the Bond Issue.
In 1995 the General Assembly elected to reimburse their percentage
share of local jail construction over a period of twenty years in lieu of total
reimbursement upon completion of construction. Wal-Mart elected to build a
super store at Valley View. City Council was concerned about the additional
traffic congestion and initiated the possibility of an additional 1-581 Interchange.
City employees working in the downtown area continued to need parking
spaces to be treated equitably with employees working at public facilities not
located in the downtown area. These three projects initiated an update to the
Capital Improvement Program.

City Council conducted a public hearing to receive citizen input on the
updated Capital Improvement Program (1996-2000) on October 16, 1995;
adopted the updated Capital Improvement Plan on October 23, 1995; and
authorized the issuance of $8,300,000 General Obligation Public Improvement
Bonds. The estimated interest rate used was 5.75%.
During the months of November and December 1995, the Mayor, City
Manager, Director of Finance, citizens and staff made three presentations to the
bond rating agencies. All three rating agencies affirmed our Double AA bond
rating in January 1996. Standard & Poor's written definition of Triple AAA and
Double AA ratings are:
"AAA - Debt rate 'AAA' has the highest rating assigned by
Standard & Poor's. Capacity to pay interest and repay principal is
extremely strong."
"AA - Debt rated 'AA' has a very strong capacity to pay interest and
repay principal and differs from the highest rated issues only in
small degree."
Attachment A shows average interest rates for general obligation bonds
from the week ending January 22, 1996. The Triple 'AAA' average was 5.10%
compared to our 4.95% bid. In my opinion we are rated by the rating agencies
as a Double 'AA', but our market bid proposals were less than the Triple 'AAA'
rate average.
Attachment B provides a detail list of all our proposals received and the
respective interest rates quoted on January 18, 1996. Merrill Lynch provided
the lowest true interest cost of 4.9543%. This is the lowest interest rate we
have received on a bond issue in the last twenty-five years.
The City Attorney and City Clerk have prepared six originals of forty-two
individual documents that were required to close this bond issue. The City
Attorney, City Treasurer and Deputy Director of Finance closed the $31.3 million
Bond Issue on February 1, 1996.
Honorable Mayor and Members
of City Council
February 5, 1996

The reduction in interest cost during the three year process has been
significant.
Estimated
Interest First Year
1994 $23,000,000 7.0% $1,610,000
1995 $31,300,000 5.75% 1,799,750
1996 $31,300,000 4.9543% (actual) 1,550,696
From our initial estimate of 7% on the $23.0 million compared to our actual rate
on the $31.3 million, the net reduction in interest cost is $59,304.
The development, prioritization, financing, adoption, debt issuance and
construction of the capital projects included citizens, City employees, City and
School administrators, School Board, and City Council. The entire process
requires "Participation" and "Teamwork" to create an effective long range capital
projects plan.
I would like to say "Thank You" to all of those that participated in the
process, especially the clerical staff for the preparation of the closing
documents. The City Manager, City Attorney or I would be pleased to answer
questions you may have regarding the 1996 Bond Issue.
Sincerely,
James D. Grisso
Director of Finance

Comm~ntaq
The bond markets showed their resiliency last
week by redirecting focus away from the logjammed
budget situation and concentrating instead on s~ne
good old-fashioned economic data. The timing of the
resumption of governmental economic reporting
could not have been better and the markets ran
enthusiastically with the data. The Treasury market
had its best week in almost two months with yields
dropping by anywhere from twelve to twenty basis
points. Participantsarenowlookingforacontinuation
ora lowgrowth/modestinflation economyandfutther
interest rate reductions by the Fed (as early as January
30) as reasons for yields possibly testing levels not
seen since the Fall of 1993.
Municipals enjoyed a strong week along with the
Treasury market. Tax-exempt yields as measured by
the Bond Buyer Indices dropped approximately ten
basis points for the week. Along with non-aggressive
economic news, the munimarket was the beneficiary
of a less than specific recommendation by the Kemp
Commission on t~x reform, Fears had been that the
Commission would have definitive opinions
~garding future tax txeatment for "public purpose"
financings as part of its flat tax proposal. The final
recommendation leaves plenty of room for debate
and for now, overall sentiment is positive.
The biggest problem for tax-exempts currently is
a dearth of supply. The Blue L/st is sitting at a pal~'y
$1.2 billion at a time when the muni bond funds are
r~istering cash inflows. Investors deposited nearly
$750 milh'on last week in anticipation of lower rates
ahead. Tlxirty~y visible supply is down below the
$5 billion level, but could build quickly as issuers rush
to take advantage of historically low levels.
In the Government market as of Friday, January
19, the 30-year 6.875% bond priced at llZ08 to yield
5.99%, the 10-year 5.875% note priced at 102.19 to yield
5.53%, the 3-year 5.50% note priced at 101.03 to yield
5.07%, hhe yield on the one-year Treasury bill was
5.00% and the yield on the three-month bill was 5.11%.
In the Municipal market, the 20-Bond G.O. Index was
yielding 5.40%, down from thepreviousweek's5.50%;
the25-Bond Revenue Indexwas yielding 5.70%, down
from the previous week's 5.79%.

Annual Bingo Activity Report 1995
The following schedule of Bingo Activity by Organization is a compilation of
Financial Reports prepared by the bingo permittee organizations for the twelve
months ended September 30, 1995.
Bingo, a form of gambling, is permitted so that money can be generated to
benefit lawful, religious, charitable, community oreducafional purposes. If profits are
not shown to benefit charity, then the purpose for which this gambling is permitted
is not met. It is important to note that 87% of the profits were spent for charitable
purposes during this period compared to 73% in 1994, 51% in 1993, and 53% in
1992.
The average profit percentage for the organizations conducting bingo has
continued to increase. In 1995, the profit percentage was 9.5% of the total gross
receipts compared to 7.1% in 1994 and 6% in 1993. In 1992, the profit percentage
was 7% and 1991, it was 10%. (Profit is the net amount after expenses are
deducted from gross receipts).
In 1995, 8.7% of the total gross receipts were spent for charitable purposes as
compared to 5.2% in 1994 and 3% in 1993. City Council adopted an ordinance in
1994 establishing a requirement that no less than 4% of the gross receipts must be
spent annually and no less than 8% of gross receipts averaged for three annual
financial reporting periods are required to be spent for charitable purposes. This
requirement became effective with the financial reporting period reflected in this
report. All organizations have complied with this requirement,
Each organization with gross receipts in excess of $250,000 is required to
submit an audited financial report by a certified public accountant that their financial
activity was fairly stated and that all proceeds were spent for lawful, religious,
charitable, community or educational purposes for which the organization is

specifically chartered or organized. All five organizations submitted an audited
financial report. In addition, random compliance audits were conducted on each
organization during 1995 on their recordkeeping, operating, and accounting
procedures.
Legislation that became effective on July 1, 1995 established the Charitable
Gaming Commission to regulate and administer bingos and raffles on a state-wide
basis beginning July 1, 1996. After that date, the City of Roanoke will no longer be
responsible for the administration, regulation or enforcement of the laws governing
bingos and raffles. However, each locality will still be allowed the option to limit the
hours of operation and to prohibit instant bingo games.
This report is being submitted to you for your information only and no action
is required. A special note of thanks goes to Deborah J. Moses, former Chief of
Billings and Collections, to Dana D. Long, former Sr. Tax Compliance Administrator
and current acting Chief of Billings and Collections, to Gerri K. Rorer, Tax
Compliance Administrator, and to Gladys L. Yates, Assistant City Attorney, for
providing legal assistance in administering the ordinances relating to bingo.

December Financial Report
This financial report covers the first half 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.68% or $346,000, on a year to date basis, compared
to FY95. Variances in specific categories of revenue are as follows:
General Property Taxes have increased $135,000 or .64%. Real Estate tax growth has added over
$500,000 to this category. Personal Property taxes have fallen by nearly the same amount, however,
because delinquent personal property revenue has been recorded on a cash basis in the current year rather
than an accrual basis as in FY95. Public Service Corporation taxes and Penalties and Interest have also
increased.
Other Local Taxes have risen 4.12% or $617,000. Sales tax has increased 4.38%, adding approximately
$318,000 to revenues. Utility taxes are up, and Transient Room tax has continued to show a positive trend,
adding $143,000 on a year to date basis. The Prepared Food and Beverage tax has also grown by more
than 7%.
Permits, Fees and Licenses are down 21.10% or $85,000. This is due to lower fees for electrical,
plumbing, and building inspection, caused by a decrease in housing starts. Street opening permits have also'
declined. Bingo audit fees are also lower in the current year because there is one less bingo club subject
to the audit requirement.
Fines and Forfeitures have increased by $52,000 or 12.76%. Increased General District Court judgment
collection fees, nearly double the level of one year ago, have been collected by the Cost Collections Unit
which was established in FY95. Parking ticket revenue has increased 27% due to an increase in volume
and the no-decal ticketing which started last year.
Revenues from the Use of Money and Property have increased $40,000 or 6.78%. Interest income has
risen 80% due to increased interest rates and higher average daily balances held in interest bearing accounts.
Rental income bom Social Services in Municipal North is lower this year through December due to
differences in the timing of payments. This year, payments are being made more ratably throughout the
year. By year end, this income should be comparable to FY95.

Grants-in-Aid Federal Government have decreased $248,000 or 93.89%. The $245,000 payment from
FEMA for the 1994 Ice Storm was received in December 1994, while no such large reimbursement has been
received in the current year.
Charges for Services have increased $315,000 or 23.81%. Sheriffs Court fees are up due to a change in
fees implemented at the State level, and Circuit Court Clerk fees have risen. Weed Cutting and Demolitions
revenues have increased due to the use of accrual accounting via the City-Wide Billing System. EMS
revenues have risen due to an increase in rates needed to help fund EMS program enhancements, adding
$186,000 to General Fund revenues. Central Services charges have also risen $70,000, consistent with the
budgeted increase.
Internal Services revenues have decreased $78,000 or 8.88% due to decreased billings by Street
Maintenance and Engineering. These billings were higher in FY95 due to the expansions at Carvins Cove
and the Sewage Treatment Plant.
EXPENDITURES AND ENCUMBRANCES
Expenditures and encumbrances in the General Fund have increased 8.51% or $6,108,000 since FY95.
Variances in individual expenditure categories are discussed below:
Judicial Administration expenditures have risen 6.53% or $122,000. Personal services costs have risen
in the Sheriffand Commonwealth's Attorney departments. The Circuit Court's fees for professional services
have also risen.
Public Safety expenditures have increased 11.06% or $1,746,000. Jail personal services expenditures have
increased over $500,000 due to the City Jail expansion which added new employees. Additional computer
and vehicular equipment has been purchased, and CIS charges have increased. Fees for professional
services costs are also up due to the privatization of Jail medical services effective July 1. Police
expenditures have increased $283,000 and Fire expenditures have increased $415,000, 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. The Building Inspections Department has incurred greater costs for the
demolition of condemned structures located in the City, while CIS charges have declined.
Public Works expenditures have risen $1,390,000 or 12.79% in FY96. Street Paving expenditures have
increased $155,000. The Communications Department has seen increased costs in several areas due to its
expanded 911 program. Solid Waste Management's fees for professional services have increased $366,000
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 an increase in cost. These have been somewhat
offset by decreased personal service and fleet charges. Engineering expenditures have grown due to the
Honorable Mayor and Members
Roanoke City Council
February 5, 1996
Page 3
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 property maintenance, supplies, utility costs and
equipment purchases. 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 6.65% or $511,000. Subsidized adoption 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 8.59% or $509,000. This is partially due to an increase in the
debt service requirements in the current year, but is mostly due to timing differences in payment due dates.
Transfers to the School Fund have increased 7.39%. The regular local funding amount was budgeted to
increase about 6%, and CMERP transfers fi.om the City to the School Board are higher through December
of FY96 than they were in FY95, causing the remainder of this increase.
Nondepartmental expenditures have increased $281,000 or 7.98%, primarily due to the timing of funding
for the Pension Plan with a transfer of $195,000 in December 1995 compared to a transfer of $350,000 in
January of the previous fiscal year. Transfers to other funds are also slightly higher through December of
the FY96.
I would be pleased to answer any questions which City Council may have regarding the Monthly Financial
Statements.

ATTEST:
City Clerk.
Roanoke City Planning Commission
January l6, 1996
The Honorable David A. Bowers, Mayor
and Members of City Council
Roanoke, Virginia
Dear Members of Council:
Subject:
Request from First Homes, LLC, and Terry W. Smith, President, that property
located in the 1600 block of Wallace Avenue, NE, and designated as Official Tax
Numbers 3221712, 3221713, 3221714, 3221715, 3221716, 3221719 and
3221720, be rezoned from HM, Heavy Manufacturing District to (RM-1)
Residential Multi-Family, Low Density District.
Pumose of rezonin~ reouest is to place tax parcels 3221712 through 3221716,
3221719 and 3221720, comprising less than one acre, into a zoning classification
that would permit the construction of single-family, detached, two-bedroom
homes.
RM-1 zoning is "intended to permit a mixture of single-family, two-family and
townhouse dwellings in areas of the city where such a mixture would aid in the
preservation and revitalization of neighborhoods and would allow for the
development of small or irregularly shaped vacant lots with a variety of dwelling
types." [Sec. 36.1-106. Intent.]
An earlier petition to rezone these parcels from HM to RM-1 was filed in April by
another petitioner who sought the rezoning for construction of four two-family
dwellings. Planning staff recommended approval, but the proposed use met with
considerable neighborhood opposition. The petition was withdrawn.
Oric, inal petition to rezone was filed November 13, 1995. There were no
conditions proffered.
Subject ~ropertv is vacant and located in a predominately residential
neighborhood which has a mixture of older and newer single-family homes and
Room 162 Municipal Building 215Church Avenue, S.W. Roanoke, Virginia 24011 (703) 981-2344

Council
duplexes. Subject property is located near Blue Stone Block, Inc. The greater
area surrounding subject property includes several other industrial uses as well as
commercial uses and additional one- and two-family residences.
Subject property is located on a ridge that runs above and between, and roughly
parallel to, Eastem Avenue and Orange Avenue/Route 460; it backs up to vacant
land which faces Orange Avenue/Route 460. The topography can
generally be described as mountainous, rocky and densely vegetated.
Planning Commission t~ublic hearing was held December 6, 1995. Terry W.
Smith, President of First Homes, LLC, appeared before the Commission and
stated that if the rezoning was approved he wanted to construct single family
dwellings.
Questions from the Planning Commissioners focused on several issues included
the compatibility of the proposed dwellings with existing dwellings in terms of
both size and appearance, topography and what, if any, conditions were being
proffered by the petitioner. It was also noted that the rezoning request was
contrary to the City's policy not to give up industrially zoned land. John Marlles
stated that was correct but that the land was not suitable for industrial
development because of the topography and that no negative comments had been
received from the City's economic development staff.
Mr. Randolph Fisher (1619 Wallace Avenue) appeared before the Commission
and stated that Mr. Smith had assured him he would be constructing single family
homes. He said that the neighborhood was not opposed to single family homes
but would be opposed to the construction of duplexes. He said he wanted to
ensure that single family homes would be constructed.
In response to questions and comments about the construction of single family
dwellings and the size of the proposed dwellings, Mr. Smith said that he intended
to proffer two conditions in an amended petition: that the use of the lots would be
restricted to the construction of single family homes and that the minimum size of
these homes would be 900 square feet. He said that an amended petition would
be submitted to the City Clerk before the City Council meeting.
Mr. Marlles said that staff's concerns would be addressed by the proffers and that
stafffelt the change in zoning was appropriate because the area is primarily mixed
residential uses. He said staffbelieves the request is consistent with the
comprehensive plan and has recommended approval.
Amended petition to rezone was filed on December 15, 1994. The following
proffers were made:
Development of each lot will be limited to a single family detached
dwelling.
Members of Council

IV.
The minimum square footage of each dwelling will be no less than 900
square feet.
Issues:
g_Q..nJ.l!g of the subject property is currently HM, Heavy Manufacturing District.
The surrounding zoning pattern is as follows: to the north and west is HM, and to
the east and south is RM-1, Residential Multi-Family, Low-Density District.
Land use surrounding the subject property is as follows: to the north are vacant,
undeveloped tracts; to the south is a mixture of single-family and two-family
attached dwellings; to the ea~[ is a mixture of single-family residences and vacant
lots; and to the west is a single-family residence, vacant lots and one industrial
use, Blue Stone Block, Inc.
C. Access to the subject property is primarily by way of Wallace Avenue.
Neighborhood omanization is the Wildwood Civic League. Adjoining property
owners have been notified of the petition to rezone. At the writing of this report,
no comments have been received by the Planning Department.
E. Comprehensive Plan recommends:
1. the development of "infill" or vacant lots in existing neighborhoods;
that possible changes in land use or new public and private development
in or near residential areas should be carefully evaluated and designed to
conserve and enhance neighborhood quality;
3. the improvement of transitional neighborhood areas;
the encouragement of a variety of housing choices in existing
neighborhoods through a balance of preservation, rehabilitation and new
development.
According to the Comprehensive Plan's Housing Development Strategy map,
subject property is located within an area deSignated as "Potential Change:
Housing Revitalization".
Alternativ~:
A. ~ the rezoning request.
Zoning of subject property would be changed from HM, Heavy
Manufacturing District, to RM-1, Residential Multi-Family, Low Density
District.
Members of Council

IV.
CC;
Land use for the construction of single-family, detached residences would
be allowed to take place.
Access to and from subject property could be safely provided by way of
Wallace Avenue.
Neighborhood would be stabilized by irrfill residential development
consisting of single-family, detached homes which are compatible with
the existing character of and development in the area.
5. Comprehensive Plan issues as set forth would be addressed.
B. ~ the rezoning request.
Zoning of the subject property would remain HM and development of
single-family residences would not take place.
2. Land use would remain a vacant property.
3. Access would not be an issue.
4. ~would be unchanged.
5. Comprehensive Plan issues as set forth would not be addressed.
The Planning Commission, by a vote of 7-0, recommended approval of the requested
rezoning, finding that the proposed use of subject property is consistent with issues set
forth in the Comprehensive Plan and the pattern of development in this established
residential neighborhood and that this residential development would be a more
appropriate land use at this location than would be the uses permitted in the Heavy
Manufacturing District.

to any changes required by the City during site development plan review;
That the property shall be used only for the purpose of operating a nursing
home, condominiums, single family dwellings, two-family dwellings,
townhouses and medical clinic;
That a d~alled landscape plan will be prepared by a professional landscape
architect and approved by the City. The plan will provide for transitional

Plannin~t Commission public hearing was continued until December 20, 1995. Mr.
Larry Wallace, P.E., Senior Engineer, and Mr. Jack Ellinwood, Civil Engineer,
Project Manager, both with Engineering Concepts, Inc., presented the request to the
Commission. Mr. Ellinwood summarized the concerns which were identified by
staff and residents at the neighborhood meeting on December 11, 1995. Mr.
Ellinwood then discussed how the amended site plan and proffers addressed the
identified issues.
Members of the Council
Page 4
Mr. Marlles, Chief of Planning and Community Development, presented the staff
report noting that staff was satisfied that the petitioners had addressed the
outstanding issues and that staffwas now recommending approval of the requested
rezoning.
Mr. Bradshaw asked if staffwas concerned with signage on the site considering this
was an issue with the last rezoning. Mrs. Dorsey, zoning administrator, noted that
the proposed C-1 zone had very restrictive sign requirements and that the nature of
the proposed use did not require extensive signage.
No one from the public spoke in opposition or support of the request.
Mr. Bradshaw questioned if the first proffer requiring the petitioner to obtain a
special exception was redundant and inquired if what was really needed was a proffer
specifying the proposed uses of the property.
Mr. Marlles and Mr. Talevi agreed with the suggestion. There was no further
discussion.
II. Current Situation:
Plannin~ Commission public he0ring was scheduled for December 6, 1995.
Petitioner, in response to staff concerns, requested that the public heating on the
request be postponed until the Commission's special meeting on December 20, 1995.
The request was unanimously approved by the Commission.
City's develonmen~; review staffhas met with the petitioner's design/legal team on
several occasions to identify issues and review preliminary design schemes. Staff
issues communicated to the petitioner were as follows: (1) buffering of the site from
adjacent residential areas; (2) provision of emergency access; (3) storm water
management; (4) ridge line protection; (5) provision of open space; and (6) access
and internal circulation.
12~]~b~iLll~g for adjacent property owners and residents of the area was
held on December 11, 1995. Representatives of the petitioner and the Planning
Department were in attendance to explain the proposal and to respond to questions.
Approximately 25-30 residents participated in the meeting. The following concerns
were expressed by the residents: (1) storm water management (both on- and off-site);
(2) the height and location of the condominium units proposed on the site; (3) the
characteristics of the residents who would be living in the facility; and (4) the
location of the proposed emergency access.
III. Issues:
Members of the Council
Page 5
Zoning of the subject property is C-l, Office District, and RM-2, Residential
Multifamily, Medium Density District. The surrounding zoning is as follows: to the
north is RS-3, Residential Single Family District; to the east is RM-2, Residential
Multifamily, Medium Density District and RS-3, Residential Single Family District;
to the south is C-l, Office District; and to the west, along Franklin Road, is C-2,
General Commercial District.
Land use of the subject property is primarily undeveloped. The majority of the
property is covered by mature trees and other vegetation. Land use in the
surrounding area is as follows: to the north is single family residential development;
to the west across Van Winkle Road is a mobile home park and scattered residential;
to the south across Old Rocky Mount Road is primarily undeveloped; and to the east
along Franklin Road is primarily highway commercial.
~. Primary access to the subject property will be via Pheasant Ridge
Road which is signalized at its intersection with Franklin Road. All internal roads
serving the proposed facility will be private roads. Emergency access can be
provided from at least two locations on the site.
~ of site fi.om adjacent single family development was originally
a concern of staff. Existing petition proffers that wooded areas adjoining residential
property lines will be maintained as a wooded area for a width of at least 50 feet
from the property line. The petitioner also proffered that a landscape architect will
provide a landscape design along the developed areas abutting Old Rocky Mount
Road, Narrows Lane, Van Winlde Road and Pheasant Ridge Road in such a manner
as to be compatible with the natural vegetation of the area and to provide a
transitional landscape into the built environment.
Storm water management has been addressed. Staff is continuing to work with the
petitioner to address storm water concerns both on-site and off-site. Details of storm
water management for each phase of the proposed development will be addressed as
part of the comprehensive development plan review process.
Neiehborhood concerns have been addressed. Petitioner, at staffs suggestion,
requested a postponement of the December 6, 1995, Planning Commission public
hearing in order to meet with the concerned residents and property owners. The
petitioner and staff have met on numerous occasions to address staff and
neighborhood concerns.
G. ~ recommends that:
1. Encourage quality construction and attractive design.
Members of the Council
Page 6
Protect neighborhood character and environmental quality. Changes in land
use and development should be carefully evaluated and designed to ensure
compatible new development occurs with adequate open space buffers.
New housing and housing types should be encouraged to respond to current
needs.
Services should be available to allow Roanoke's elderly to remain in their
neighborhoods as long as possible.
IV. Alternatives:
A. City Council approv~ the requested rezoning.
1. Zoning of subject property becomes conditional C-l, Office District.
Land use becomes a group care facility including a nursing home, congregate
homes for the elderly and independent living units for the elderly on a 49.23
acre tract.
Primary_ access to the site would be provided by Pheasant Ridge Road.
Internal circulation will be provided by a new private road. Emergency
access would be available from another location.
Buffering and scre~nin? of the site will be accomplished through the
permanent preservation of an existing wooded area fifty (50) feet in width
adjoining the property line of the Southern Hills subdivision, Van Winkle
Road, S.W. and Route 789. The area adjacent to the C-1 zoned property on
the west will be buffered by an area at least twenty-five (25) feet in width.
Storm water management would be addressed for each phase of the proposed
development as part of the comprehensive development plan review process.
~ would be minimal. Surrounding development would
be screened by the proposed vegetative buffer.
7. ~ issues as set forth in III.G. would be addressed.
B. i.~ the requested rezoning.
~..9..~of the subject property would remain C-1, Office District and RM-2,
Residential Multifamily, Medium Density District.
2. Land use of the subject property would remain undeveloped.
Members of the Council
Page 7
3. Access and traffi9 would not be an issue.
4. ~ would not be an issue.
5. Storm water would remain unchanged.
6. Nei~hborho0d would be unchanged.
7. 12t~lgt~fiZe,~ recommendations as set forth could be addressed at a
later date.
The Plannin~ Commission. by a vote of 6-0 (Mr. Jones absent) recommends approval of the
requested rezoning. The proposed group care facility addresses a need for additional
housing and treatment facilities for Roanoke's elderly population.

THE CITY OF ROANOKE:
The Petitioner, Roanoke Health Care Center L. L. C., owns land in the City
of Roanoke containing 49.23 acres, more or tess, located in the northwest corner of the
intersection of Narrows Lane and Van Winkle Road and having official tax number
5460101. Said tract is currently zoned C-l, Office District and RM-2, Residential

dated December 3, 1979. A map of the property to be rezoned is attached as Exhibit
Pursuant to Section 36.1-690, Code of the City of Roanoke (1979), as amended,
the Petitioner requests that the said property be rezoned from the RM-2, Residential
Multlfamily District to the C-1, Office District for the entire traci of land, subject to
certain conditlons set forth below, for the purpose of developing congregate care
facilities and residential housing for the elderly.
The Petitioner believes the rezoning of the said tract of land will further the
intent and purposes of the City's Zoning Ordinance and its comprehensive plan, in
that it will effect the development of a community and provide the elderly population
with a choice of residential and care facilities, carefully planned to create a non-
institutional atmosphere, with health care and support services traditionally available
only in scattered locations throughout the metropolitan area.
The Petitioner requests that the existing proffers contained in Ordinance No.
24898, more particularly as it concerns the 49.23 acre tract, a copy of which is attached
as Exhibit "C" be repealed and hereby proffers that the rezoning will be subject to, and
that the Petitioner will abide by the following conditions:
That the property will be developed in substantial confo?mity

November 14, 1995, a copy of which is attached to the Petition
for Rezoning as Exhibit "D", subject to any changes required by
the City during site development plan review;
(2)
That the property shall be used only for the purpose of operating a nursing
home, condominiums, single family dwellings, two-family dwellings,
townhouses and medical clinic
(3)
(4)
(5)
That a detailed landscape plan will be prepared by a professional
landscape architect and approved by the City. The plan will
provide for transitional landscaping along the Old Rocky Mount
Road and the Van Winkle Road corridors. The design will
reduce the impact of parking and building structures. Review
and required revisions in accordance with this proffer, will take
place at the time of comprehensive development plan review;
That the wooded areas contiguous with the property lines
will be maintained as a wooded area for a width of at
least fifty (50) feet, with the exception of the areas adjacent to the
existing C-1 zoned property on the west, along which a 25 foot
buffer area shall be maintained;
That all proposed structures shown on Exhibit "D" will be
constructed of natural exterior building materials such as stone,
brick, decorative block, stucco, and wood. This shall not
preclude the use of other building construction materials
when used as a particular component of the building system such
as glassed atriums, skylights, entry canopies, standing-seam metal
roofs, or other structural or mechanical systems incident to the
building use. Metal buildings, mobile or manufactured buildings,
with the exception of temporary structures used as contractors'
offices during construction, or other structures inconsistent with
the above described selection of materials shall not be used in this
development;
(6) Recreational amenities, consisting of internal walkways or paths
shall be provided;
(7)
That as subsequent phases of development are proposed,
those development plans will be submitted to the Planning
Commission for their review and approval.
Attached as Exhibit "E" are the names, addresses and tax numbers of the owner
or owners of all lots or properties immediately adjacent to or immediately across a
street or road from the property to be rezoned.

The Petitioner, Roanoke Health Care Center L. L. C., owns land in the City

intersection of Narrows Lane and Van Winkle Road and having official tax number
5460101. Said tract is currently zoned C-l, Office District and RM-2, Residential

dated December 3, 1979. A map of the property to be rezoned is attached as Exhibit
Pursuant to Section 36.1-690, Code of the City of Roanoke (1979), as amended,
the Petitioner requests that the said property be rezoned from the RM-2, Residential
Multifamily District to the C-1, Office District for the entire tract of land, subject to
certain conditions set forth below, for the purpose of developing congregate care
facilities and residential housing for the elderly.
The Petitioner believes the rezoning of the said tract of land will further the
intent and purposes of the City's Zoning Ordinance and its comprehensive plan, in
that it will effect the development of a community and provide the elderly population
with a choice of residential and care facilities, carefully planned to create a non-
institutional atmosphere, with health care and support services traditionally available
only in scattered locations throughout the metropolitan area.
The Petitioner requests that the existing proffers contained in Ordinance No.

Zoning Appeals for a special exception to allow for congregate
homes and a nursing home as provided for within the Roanoke
City Zoning Ordinance.

November 14, 1995, a copy of which is attached to the Petition
for Rezoning as Exhibit "D", subject to any changes required by

That a detailed landscape plan will be prepared by a professional
landscape architect and approved by the City. The plan will
provide for transitional landscaping along the Old Rocky Mount

reduce the impact of parking and building structures. Review
and required revisions in accordance with this proffer, will take
place at the time of comprehensive development plan review;
That the wooded areas contiguous with the property lines

least fifty (50) feet, with the exception of the areas adjacent to the
existing C-1 zoned property on the west, along which a 25 foot
buffer area shall be maintained;

roofs, or other structural or mechanical systems incident to the
building use. Metal buildings, mobile or manufactured buildings,

intersection of Narrows Lane and Van Winkle Road and having official tax number
5460101. Said tract is currently zoned C-1, Office District and RM-2, Residential
Multifamily District as a result of a conditional rezoning by Ordinance No. 24898,
dated December 3, 1979. A map of the property to be rezoned is attached as Exhibit
Pursuant to Section 36.1-690, Code of the City of Roanoke (1979), as amended,
the Petitioner requests that the said property be rezoned from the RM-2, Residential
Multifamily District to the C-1, Office District for the entire tract of land, subject to
certain conditions set forth below, for the purpose of developing congregate care
facilities and residential housing for the elderly.
The Petitioner believes the rezoning of the said tract of land will further the
intent and purposes of the City's Zoning Ordinance and its comprehensive plan, in
that it will effect the development of a community and provide the elderly population
with a choice of residential and care facilities, carefully planned to create a non-
institutional atmosphere, with health care and support services traditionally available
only in scattered locations throughout the metropolitan area.
The Petitioner requests that the existing proffers contained in Ordinance No.
24898, more particularly as it concerns the 49.23 acre tract, a copy of which is attached
as Exhibit "C" be repealed and hereby proffers that the rezoning will be subject to, and

That a landscape architect will provide landscape design along
the developed areas abutting Rocky Mount Road, Narrows
Lane, Van Winkle Road, and Pheasant Ridge Road in such
a manner as to be compatible with the natural vegetation
of the area and to provide a transitional landscape into the
built environment. Landscape design will also be utilized to
mitigate any impact of parking and building structures on the
surrounding areas, subject to any changes required by the
City during site development plan review;
That the wooded areas presently adjoining the property lines
will be maintained as a wooded area for an average width of at
least fifty (50) feet from the property line, with the exception of

that will provide an architectural treatment harmonious to
the natural environment of the site and the surrounding areas.
Natural exterior building materials such as stone, brick,
decorative block, stucco, and wood shall be incorporated
in the design elements. This shall not preclude the use of
other building construction materials that are congruous with
the selection of natural materials when used as a particular
component of the building system such as glassed atriums,
skylights, entry canopies, standing-seam metal roofs, or other
structural or mechanical systems incident to the building use.
Metal buildings, mobile or manufactured buildings, with the
exception of temporary uses as contractors' offices during

IN RE:
Request to amend proffered conditions as set forth in Ordinance
No. 24898 and the rezoning of said tract of land lying in the northwest
corner of the intersection of Narrows Lane and Van Winkle Road,
consisting of 49.23 acres of land, more fully described on attached
Exhibit "A", and being official tax number 5460101, from zoning
designation C-1, Office District and RM-2, Residential Multifamily
District to zoning designation C-1, Office District, such rezoning
to be subject to certain conditions.
TO THE HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE COUNCIL OF
THE CITY OF ROANOKE:
The Petitioner, Roanoke Health Care Center L L. C., owns land in the City
of Roanoke containing 49.23 acres, more or less, located in the northwest corner of the
intersection of Narrows Lane and Van Winkle Road and having official tax number
5460101. Said tract is currently zoned C-1, Office District and RM-2, Residential
Multifamily District as a result of a conditional rezoning by Ordinance No. 24898,
dated December 3, 1979. A map of the property to be rezoned is attached as Exhibit
Pursuant to Section 36.1-690, Code of the City of Roanoke (1979), as amended,
the Petitioner requests that the said property be rezoned from the RM-2, Residential
Multifamily District to the C-1, Office District for the entire tract of land, subject to
certain conditions set forth below, for the purpose of developing congregate care
facilities and residential housing for the elderly.
The Petitioner believes the rezoning of the said tract of land will further the
intent and purposes of the City's Zoning Ordinance and its comprehensive plan, in
that it will effect the development of a community and provide the elderly population
with a choice of residential and care facilities, carefully planned to create a non-
institutional atmosphere, with health care and support services traditionally available
only in scattered locations throughout the metropolitan area.
The Petitioner requests that the existing proffers contained in Ordinance No.
24898, more particularly as it concerns the 49.23 acre tract, a copy of which is attached
as Exhibit "C" be repealed and hereby proffers that the rezoning will be subject to, and
that the Petitioner will abide by the following conditions:
(1)
An application will be made to the Roanoke City Board of
Zoning Appeals for a special exception to allow staged
development of the property into a congregate care facility;
(2)
That the property will be developed in substantial conformity
with the site plan prepared by Engineering Concepts, Inc., dated
November 14, 1995, a copy of which is attached to the Petition
for Rezoning as Exhibit "D", subject to any changes required by
the City during site development plan review;
That the property will be developed in stages with the initial
development being the elderly care/nursing facility shown as
Use "A" on Exhibit "D". Other uses proposed for the
development are independent living - multi-family, medical care
facility/clinic, and independent living/assisted living facility;
That a landscape architect will provide landscape design along
the developed areas abutting Rocky Mount Road, Narrows
Lane, Van Winkle Road, and Pheasant Ridge Road in such
a manner as to be compatible with the natural vegetation
of the area and to provide a transitional landscape into the
built environment. Landscape design will also be utilized to
mitigate any impact of parking and building structures on the
surrounding areas, subject to any changes required by the
City during site development plan review.
(5)
That the wooded areas presently adjoining the property lines
will be maintained as a wooded area for an average width of at
least fifty (50) feet from the property line, with the exception of
the areas adjacent to the existing C-1 zoned property on the
west, where the minimum rear yard setback requested by the C-1
zone will be observed;
That proposed structures will be constructed of materials
that will provide an architectural treatment harmonious to
the natural environment of the site and the surrounding areas.
Natural exterior building materials such as stone, brick,
decorative block, stucco, and wood shall be incorporated
in the design elements. This shall not preclude the use of
other building construction materials that are congruous with
the selection of natural materials when used as a particular
component of the building system such glassed atriums,
skylights, entry canopies, standing-seam metal roofs, or other
structural or mechanical systems incident to the building use.
Metal buildings, mobile or manufactured buildings, with the
exception of temporary uses as contractors' offices during
construction, or other structures inconsistent with the above
described selection of materials shall not be considered for this
development.
Application will be made to the Roanoke City Board of Zoning
Appeals for a variance from the building height restriction of
thirty (35) feet in a C-1 District to fifty-five (55) feet.
(8)
That active/passive internal recreational amenities shall be
incorporated in the design of the development and that
internal pedestrian circulation will be developed in concert
with the proposed uses and the roadway network.
Attached as Exhibit "E" are the names, addresses and tax numbers of the owner
or owners of all lots or properties immediately adjacent to or immediately across a
street or road from the property to be rezoned.
WHEREFORE, the Petitioner requests that the above described tract be
rezoned as requested in accordance with the provisions of the Zoning Ordinance of the
City of Roanoke.
Respectfully submitted this 15th day of November, 1995

Roanoke City Planning Commission
Janua~ 16,1996
Honorable Mayor David A. Bowers
and Members of City Council
Roanoke, Virginia
Dear Mayor and Members of Council:
Subject:
Request from James B. and Betty M. Young, represented by Edward
A. Natt, that a certain condition proffered in conjunction with a rezoning
of property located at 1919 Tenth Street, N. W., designated as Official
Tax No. 2060534, and approved by Ordinance No. 27294 dated
9/24/84, be repealed and that another proffered condition be accepted.
I. Backqround:
Property was the subject of a rezoning request in 1977 for General Welding
and a new retail carpet outlet and warehouse. The request was denied by
both the Planning Commission and City Council on the basis that the rezoning
would negatively affect the predominately residential area.
Subject property was again considered for rezoninq in September of 198,1
and was rezoned from RD, Duplex (now RM-1), to LM, Li.qht Manufacturing
with conditions for the purposes of making General Welding & Machine
Company a conforming use within an appropriate zoning district in order to
secure additional financial assistance for investment in the property.
Petitioner was General Welding & Machine Company, Inc., represented by
Hampton W. Thomas.
Plannina Commission public hearinqs on the 1984 request were held on
8/1/84 and aqain, on 8/15/84 (minutes attached). Several residents and a
representative of the Roanoke Redevelopment and Housing Authority
appeared before Commission in opposition to the rezoning request because
of the business' effect on surrounding residential properties. Planning
Commission members were concerned about future use of the property as it
related to the residential area, as well as the condition of the property. A
revised development plan and three petitions were submitted to address
Room162 MunicipalBuilding 215ChurchAvenue, S.W. Roanoke, Virginia24011 (703)981-2344
Members of C~uncil
Page 2
concerns. The proffered conditions that were finally recommended by the
Planning Commission and accepted by City Council were:
"The structures presently erected on the rezoned property will be painted
and repaired, and the surrounding areas will be landscaped and
maintained as shown on the site plan dated August 8, 1984, attached as
Exhibit D."
"Outdoor advertising leases now in existence expiring August, 1994 will
not be renewed upon expiration; nor will future leases be entered into.
Future signage for the rezoned property will be in accord with the
requirements of the Code of the City of Roanoke, Virginia."
"The structures presently erected on the rezoned property will not be
enlarged or expanded; new structures will not be erected upon said
premises; nor will the present use of said buildings be changed."
City Zoninq Inspector sent a violation notice dated 7/6/95 to the owner of tho
subject property advising that the billboards on the property needed to bo
removed in order to comply with the proffered condition of the rezoning for
the property. The property owner, James Young (General Truck Body, Inc.),
was given ten days to comply and advised that the decision could be
appealed to the City Board of Zoning Appeals within thirty days.
Board of Zoninq Appeals hearing to appeal of the Zoninq Administrator's
decision was held on 9/5/9,~ After considerable discussion, the Board voted
unanimously ('5-0) to uphold the decision of the Zoning Administrator that the
billboard structures on the property at 1919 Tenth Street must be removed in
accordance with the conditions of the rezoning and Section 36.1-697 of the
Zoning Code of the City of Roanoke. The applicant has appealed the Board
of Zoning Appeals' decision to the Circuit Court.
Petition to Amend Proffered Conditions on the property was filed on 11/10/95.
Purpose is to allow the exist nq outdoor advertis nq use to continue. The
following substitute condition has been proffered:
"That outdoor advertising signage on the property will continue on the existing
boards without any increase in size or number of outdoor advertising boards."
Planning Commission public hearinq was held on 12/6/9,~. Mr. Ed Natt,
Attorney for the Petitioner, addressed the Commission and advised that he
represented the property owners, as well as two sign companies. He stated
that the Youngs were now the owners of the property and that in 1984 the
sign companies had not been notified of the proffered condition regarding the
outdoor advertising. Therefore, he felt that they had not been given notice of

an item in which they had a property interest. They were now requesting that
the previous proffer be amended and that the outdoor advertising "remain on
the property as a non-conforming use." The other proffers on the property
would remain There was considerable discussion regarding legal aspects of
the matter and what the Commission should consider. It was determined that
because proffers are voluntary on the part of the petitioner and because they
run with the property, the Commission should assume that the proffer was
valid and consider why and if the proffer should be changed Mrs. Evelyn
Lander, City Planner, presented the staff report on the matter and advised
that circumstances regarding the property had not changed and
recommended that the request be denied. Mr. Keith Austin, of Lamar
Advertising, appeared before the Commission in support of the change in
conditions, noting the importance billboards to the community. Ms. Sandra
Sizemore, of 3M Media, addressed the Commission also in support of the
change in conditions, stating that to require them to remove the outdoor
advertising without compensation was not allowed.
Issues:
Zon ng of property is LM, conditional. Adjacent properties are zoned RM-1
and
RM-2.
Land use of property has not chan,qed. Sinqle family homes and Hunt Manor
Apartments are adjacent to the subiect property. 1-581 lies to the north.
Conditions of 1984 rezoning were proffered voluntarily by the property owner
in response to Planning Commission's concerns reqardin.q the existing
physical conditions of the property, the compatibility of the business use with
adjacent residential uses and their attempt to make a non-conforminq usn
more conforminq to the district requested. Outdoor advertising structures,
were not permitted then, and are not permitted now, within 250 feet of 1-581.
D. Comprehensive Plan recommends that:
1. Promoting, encouraging, maintaining, or enhancing environmental quality
and the appearance of the city should be a key objective, of public services
and private initiatives in Roanoke.
2. Public area landscapinq and beautification should be encouraqed and
supported through public and private actions.
Neighborhood character and environmental quality should be protected.
Possible chanqes in land use or new public and private development in or
near residential areas should be carefully evaluated and desiqned to
Members of Council

III.
conserve and enhance neighborhood quality. Zoning regulations should
enhance visual quality in neighborhoods.
4. Development of new or existing commercial and industrial areas in the city
should be carefully planned and designed to promote quality development
~d use.
Alternatives:
City Council deny the request for a change in the conditions of the previous
rezoning.
1. Zonina is unchanaed. Proffered conditions enforced. Conditions are
attached to the property, not the owner of the property.
2. Land use remains industrial. Outdoor advertising on properties would be
terminated.
Conditions of the previous rezoning upheld The conditions were
voluntarily proffered to address land use and zoning conformance issues
in exchange for a rezoning of the property. Condition relating to outdoor
advertising has a reasonable relation to the rezoning, is related to the
physical development and operation of the property, and the previously
requested rezoning gave rise to the need for the condition.
4. Comprehensive Plan followed City environment and 1-581 enhanced.
B. City Council approve the request for a change in the conditions.
Zoning remains LM. New condition allowinq outdoor advertising to
continue would not be consistent with existing city si.qn ordinance.
Purpose of previous rezoning to make subject property more compatible
with adjacent land uses and conforming to the zoning district would not be
met.
2. Land use remains unchanged. Existinq outdoor advertising continues to
be non-conforming.
Conditions of previous rezoning chancl¢. New condition does not address
original concerns with the property. Intent to eliminate outdoor advertising
compromised. Proffers are intended to make a permitted use more
palatable; the subject proffer permits a use that is prohibited.
4. Comprehensive Plan not followed. Environmental quality of the city not
enhanced. Unlawful structures permitted.
Members of Council
Page 5
IV.
Recommendation:
The Planning Commission recommended denial of the request to change the
proffered conditions of the rezoning by a unanimous vote of 7-0. The proffered
condition and the public hearings for the conditional rezoning of the subject property
in 1984 clearly indicate that the outdoor advertising on the property would be
terminated by August, 1994 and that future signage on the property would be in
conformance with the city code. The condition had a reasonable relation to the
rezoning, was related to the physical development and operation of the property,
and the previously requested rezoning gave rise to the need for the condition. The
conditions were voluntarily proffered to address land use and zoning conformance
issues for the property in exchange for a rezoning. The rezoning was granted; the
conditions should be sustained.

There being no quorum present, Mrs. Goode stated the Commission would
hear arguments from persons present who wished to speak on the issues
before the Commission. She further stated that the Cormm~sston would
recess and take action at 11:00 a.m. on August 16, 1984, in the Council
Chambers, after a quorum was established.
Mr. Buford commented that the public hearing would be held today and
then recessed until the 16th, with a vote taken at that time.
Request from General Weldino and Machine Company, Inc., a Vir~f~
corporation, represented b~ Mr. Richard L. Greenber~, Attorney,
that a tract of land containing 3.076 acres, fronting on Levelton
Avenue, N.W., and Tenth Street, N.W., and desi~l~ated as Official
Tax No. 2060534, be rezoned from RD, Duplex Residential District,
to LM, Light Manufacturing District.
Mr. Hampton Thomas, attorney, appeared before the Commission and stated
that his client had been working diligently to answer some of the
Commission's concerns which were voiced two weeks ago. He noted that
Commission members had been supplied with an updated site plan depicting
the improvements which would be undertaken. He stated that the site
plan was a proffered condition.
Mr. Thomas then read and discussed the proffers relative to outdoor
advertising signage and the enlargement of present structures. He
discussed the usage of the word "substantially" in his proffer relative
to use of structures and stated that there would be no substantial
change without the owner coming back to the Commission. He also noted
that any deviation from the present use would be under the supervision
of the Commission and Council.

At this point, Mr. Thomas stated he had no further presentation, but
asked if it would be necessary for him to return on Thursday for the
vote on the matter.
Mr. Wilburn C. Dibling, Jr., City Attorney, stated that the petitioner
did not have to be present; however, anyone, including petitioner and
citizens, was welcome to attend the meeting and comment, if desired.
Mrs. Goode asked for comments.
Mr. Buford noted his concern about the proffer relative to future signs.
He noted that after the present leases expired, the structures would
remain and the petitioner could renegotiate with another vendor for more
outdoor advertising signage.
Mr. Thomas stated that was not his intent and he stated he would amend
his proffer to state the following, "Outdoor advertising leases now in
existence expiring August, 1994 will not be renewed upon expiration nor
will new leases be entered into." He noted there would need to be a
sign advertising the General Welding business, however, no other outdoor
advertising would be necessary
Mrs. Goode asked for staff comment.
Mr. Earl B. Reynolds, Jr., stated his concern over the precedent which
could be set if the rezoning were approved aS presented, that being
making a non-confor~ing use a conforming use by rezoning. He stated
that if the Commission were going to proceed, they were bound to insure
that the outcome of this petition could be applied in an equitable
manner to future, similar requests. He noted that it had to be the
objective of the petitioner to supply an improvement plan which would
upgrade the facility and make it more compatible with the surrounding
residential neighborhood, as well as continue to restrict the user's
growth to the current LM use, as well as its predecessor, as if the
property were still subject to the Grandfather Clause. Mr. Reynolds
stated he was concerned about Mr. Thomas's last proffer relative to
substantially changing the use of the buildings. He noted that changes
without the prior consent of the Commission and Council would not be
necessary if the use were limited to a welding and machine shop. He
further stated that the neighborhood was accustomed to living with the
use that was presently there, and if a new use was proposed for a later
date, a hearing would be set and everyone could discuss the proposal.
Mrs. Goode asked if the use had been limited to a welding shop.
Mr. Reynolds stated it had not.
Mr. Thomas proposed to change the proffer to read as follows, "The
structures presently erected on the rezoned property will not be
enlarged or expanded; new structures will not be erected upon said
premises; nor will the present use of said building be changed." He
then proffered the amendment.

Mrs. Goode asked for further comments.
Mr. Stanley Blaney, Roanoke Redevelopment and Housing Authority,
appeared before the Commission and stated the Authority was opposed to
the rezontng. He noted that the Authority owned property in the area.
He noted that the area was primarily residential in nature and it was
preferred to leave it that way.
There was no further discussion of the rqquest.
Request from Mr. Daniel F. Layman, Jr., Attorney, representin~ the
City of Roanoke Redevelopment and Housin~ Authorit~, for vacation
of certain lot lines in the Gainsboro Redevelopment Project Area.
Mr. Daniel Layman appeared before the Commission and stated that the
request was another step in the process of getting the Wometco project
ready for conveyance to the Wometco Coca-Cola Bottling Company, Inc. He
said he was trying to accomplish two things by the procedure: (1)
elimination of all the interior lot lines in the area, thus turning it
into one large, single acreage tract; and (2) assurance that the title
to the bed of the streets and alleys passes to the adjoining property
owners, which will be in all cases, ultimately the Housing Authority.
Mr. Layman noted there had been some question raised by residents on
the south side of Gilmer Avenue as to whether any of the proceedings
affected their property. Re assured the Co~nissioners and citizens that
it did not and affected only the area that would be conveyed to Wometco
Coca-Cola, plus the lots on Wells and London, which would be used as
turnarounds.
Mrs. Goode asked for questions. There being none, she asked for staff
Mr. Reynolds briefly reviewed what Mr. Layman had stated and noted that
staff recommendation was approval of the request.
Mrs. Goode asked for comments from the audience.
Ms. Dorothy Witten (622 McDowell Avenue) appeared before the Commission
and stated she was speaking relative to the property at 312 Gilmer
Avenue. She wanted to know the status of the remaining 7½ feet of
alleyway behind Gilmer Avenue.
Mr. Layman stated that only the southern half was affected by this
proceeding. He said he thought that the City had asked each property
owner to convey 2½ feet, to the 7½ feet remaining, so that the City
could install a new alley. He noted that as far as he knew,
negotiations were still open with the City, and that Mr. Bob Herbert,
Assistant City Manager, could be contacted relative to the conveyance.
Roanoke City Planning Commission Minutes

August 15, 1984
Mr. Reynolds stated that the vacation of the plat does not affect the 7~
feet of alleyway abutting the properties on Gilmer Avenue. He noted
that the citizen discussions with Mr. Herbert about the installation of
the alley could continue.
There was no further discussion of the request.
At this point, Mr. Buford move to recess the meeting until 11:00 a.m.,
August 16, 1984, in the City Council Chambers.
Mrs. Goode then declared the meeting recessed until 11:00 a.m., August
16th.
August 16, 1984
Mr. Paul C. Buford, Jr., Vice Chairman, reconvened the Planning
Commission meeting at 11:02 a.m., on Thursday, August 16. Attendance
was as follows:
Members Present:
Mr. Henry Boynton
Hr. John Bradshaw
Mr. Paul Buford
Mrs. Susan Goode (late)
Mr. William Sowers
Hr. Michael Waldvogel
Member Absent:
Mr. Charles Price
Mr. Buford asked that deliberations continued on the two agenda items.
1. Request from General Weldin$ and Machine Company, Inc.
Mr. Buford briefly stated the new proffers from Mr. Thomas, which are
noted on Page 2 of these Minutes.
Mrs. Goode noted that the Housing Authority had no objection to the
present use, but would object if the use were changed.
Mr. Buford mentioned that the petitioner had been very cooperative.
Mr. Bradshaw asked if a provision for maintenance of the landscaping had
bee~ discussed.
Mr. Buford noted that there was no provision for maintenance discussed,
however, he felt the petitioners were improving their site and the City
was not threatened with a vacant building.
Mrs. Goode asked if the site plan review process would ease any of Mr.
Bradshaw's concern relative to maintenance.
Roanoke City Planning Commission Minutes
Page 5
August 15, 1984
Mr. Reynolds explained that the City would monitor the site after
building permits were issued, however, after the work was completed, any
problems would be brought to the City's attention from complaints or
City observation.
There being no further discussion of the matter, Mr. Boynton moved the
request be approved based upon the revision of the proffered conditions.
The motion was seconded by Mr. Buford.
Mrs. Goode asked for further questions.
Mr. Bradshaw commented that it should be noted that this case was an
exception to the basic rule, due to the Grandfather Clause relating to
this operation. He said he did not want people to think this was
standard procedure.
There being no further discussion, Mrs. Goode asked for all those in
favor of the rezoning. The vote was 6-0 to approve the request.
2. City of Roanoke Redevelopment and Housin~ Authority
Hr. Dan Layman, Attorney, was present to answer any questions the
Commission had.
At this point Mr. Bradshaw abstained from discussion and vote due to
contractual arrangements with the Housing Authority.
Mr. Buford noted that the matter had been discussed and no objection had
been raised. He stated, however, that there were persons present at
yesterday's hearing who were interested in the request. He said he felt
discussion was clear and the staff position was clear. He stated that
unless there were questions, he would move to approve the request.
There being no questions, Mr. Sowers seconded the motion.
Mrs. Goode asked for further questions. There being none, Mrs. Goode
asked for all those in favor of the request. The vote was 5-0-1 (Mr.
Bradshaw abstaining), in favor of the request.
3. Other Discussion
Mr. Reynolds stated that he had received correspondence from Mr. W. H.
Fralin, Attorney, asking that his rezoning request on Vinyard Avenue,
N.E., be withdrawn at this time. He stated he would like the Commission
to take an official vote to rescind their motion to continue the matter
for 60 days and to accept the withdrawal.
Mr. Buford made a motion to rescind the Co~mnission's motion to continue
the request and to accept the withdrawal of the rezonlng request. The
motion was seconded by Mr. Waldvogel and approved 6-0.
There being no further discussion, the meeting was adjourned at 11:20

Request from General Weldin~ and Machine Company, Inc., a Virginia
corporation, represented by Mr. Richard L. Greenber~, Attorney,
that a tract of land containin~ 3.076 acres, frontin~ on Levelton
Avenue, N.W. and Tenth Street, N.W., and designated as Official Tax
No. 2060534, be rezoned from RD, Duplex Residential District, to
LM, Light Manufacturin~ District.
Mr. Hampton Thomas, Attorney, appeared on behalf of Mr. Greenberg. He
described the location of the parcel of land requested for rezoning and
noted that General Welding had been in existence since 1962 and on the
present site for 10 years. He further noted that the property was being
occupied under a non-conforming use or grandfather clause. He also
noted that the building needed improvements, particularly the roof,
which needs complete replacement. Mr. Thomas explained to the
Commission that General Welding could not obtain financing from some
lending institutions for improvements to the facility since the zoning
of the building was not compatible with the use. He said that after
discussions with the City Attorney's office, it was decided that the
petitioner's only relief would be to seek a rezoning. Mr. Thomas
further stated that a site plan, which he intended to proffer, had been
prepared by Mr. Bob Arminio. Further discussion of the proposed
rezoning indicated that General Welding did not intend to enlarge the
premises at the present time, but they did intend to upgrade the
premises.
Mr. Arminio appeared before the Commission and stated that most of what
was on the site plan was what presently existed. He stated that it was
intended to clean up the parking area and expand the lot to provide
additional parking. Mr. Arminio stated there was almost a total visual
barrier between the General Welding property and the residential areas
provided by ground cover and trees. He noted that he proposed to plant
white pines to help develop a screen in the few areas where there was a
break in the barrier. Mr. Armfnio further stated that Mr. Coffey of
General Welding intended to extend the pipe rail barrier to eliminate an
undesirable turnaround.
Mr. Boynton asked if all entrances would be from Levelton.
Mr. Arminio stated that was correct and the entrances would remain
exactly the same.
Mr. Boynton then asked if the area would be fenced.
Mr. Arminio stated the entire area was fenced at the present time.
Mr. Bradshaw asked Mr. Thomas why a rezoning was necessary in order to
have the roof repaired. Mr. Bradshaw further stated that he thought the
Grandfather Clause allowed reasonable maintenance of the structure.
Mr. Thomas explained that the lenders appeared to be reluctant to invest
a substantial sum of money in a building that, if destroyed, would not
protect their investment. He said that he understood, from discussion
with Mr. Light, that there were proposed amendments to the City Code
which would cover the point, and asked that Mr. Light clarify what had
Roanoke City Planning Commission Minutes
Page 7
August 1, 1984
been discussed. He further stated there were certain situations where
the lender did not feel he was protected when substantially improving a
building that was under the Grandfather Clause.
At this point, Mr. Thomas referred to the staff's concern over possible
future expansion of the buildings if the property were rezoned. He
noted that he had discussed the matter with Mr. Coffey, and within
reasonable restrictions, he had no plans to expand. He said that by
proffering the site plan, they would be willing to abide by the site
plan.
Regarding the Grandfather Clause, Mr. Light stated that the petitioner
could modify the building, however, the financial institution was having
a problem with lending the money.
Mr. Bradshaw stated that he was concerned about the non-conforming use
in a residential area. He stated the site was very visible from the
interstate, and the owners, to date, had not seen fit to do anything
about providing a visually attractive entrance into the City. He said
that the site in question was the least attractive of the entire strip
and contained three or four large signs. He also stated that he had not
been convinced that the signs were under the Grandfather Clause. Re
said he did not know whether changing the zoning to light manufacturing
was the best category for the property.
Mr. Thomas stated there had been a request for a rezoning of the subject
property, hut the request had been for a carpet shop. Mr. Thomas
further stated that it was his understanding that if the site plan were
proffered and the rezoning were granted, then the conditions would have
to be followed. He also noted there would be a restriction on expansion
of the existing buildings.
Mr. Bradshaw said he was reluctant to use conditional rezoning to accept
a proffer where someone said they were going to be in a business
indefinitely. Re said he did not think that would come to pass. He
also stated he did not see anything different being proposed on the new
site plan that was not proposed at the time of the previous request.
At this point, Mr. Reynolds explained that the 1977 rezoning request was
for LM zoning, which would put the welding operation under the proper
zoning, and allow a retail carpet shop use.
Mr. Steve Coffey, President of General Welding, appeared before the
Commission and stated that in 1977 Carter Webb wanted to construct a
carpet shop, and General Welding petitioned along with Mr. Webb for an
LM zoning designation on the entire parcel. Mr. Coffey stated that the
appearance of the property had been mentioned and that there had been
improvement of the appearance since 1977. He stated that the property
was kept in a mowed lawn situation, which it was not in 1977. He
further stated that over the past seven years a fence had been erected
for protection from burglary and vandalism. He stated there were no
high weeds in the back of the property, and that there were not as many
used truck body parts stored on the back of the property as were
previously on there. He noted that his business had changed over the
Roanoke City Planning Commission Minutes
Page 8
August 1, 1984
past few years from a welding and machine shop, to strictly a truck body
company. Mr. Coffey further stated that he could not afford to put any
more money into the building because he was fast approaching the
appraised value of the building under the present zoning.
Mr. Boynton asked Mr. Coffey what he would do to make the building more
presentable if the zoning were changed.
Mr. Coffey said that he would do what is on the site plan. He noted
that he would block off the front entrance to keep trucks from turning
in the front yard. He said he would clean up some of the underbrush and
plant new barrier-type bushes. He said that he also wanted to maintain
a cleaner situation in the back of the property.
Mr. Boynton asked what he would do about the signs.
Mr. Coffey said he could do nothing about the signs because they were
under contracts, which had just been renewed for 10 years.
Mr. Price stated that the surrounding residential community appeared to
be able to live with the commercial type building presently on the
property. He asked if there was any protection from any business
requiring an LM designation to be built on the property if the land were
rezoned to LM.
Mrs. Goode stated that the petitioner would have to abide by the
proffered site plan and the building would have to be built on the same
location as the present building, unless the petitioner came back to the
Commission with a request to change the conditions.
Mr. Price then asked how the 1995 Thoroughfare Plan affected the
property in question.
Mr. Robert Bengtson stated that the City's Thoroughfare Plan element
contained a 10th Street widening on the south of Orange Avenue. He
noted that the widening on the south side of Orange was a higher
priority than the widening of 10th Street on the north side (where this
particular parcel is located). Re stated he did not foresee at this
time where the widening would have any affect on the property.
Mrs. Goode asked for further comments.
Mr. Bradshaw asked if the rezoning request contained proffers.
Mrs. Goode said that she thought Mr. Thomas had proffered the site plan.
Mr. Bradshaw asked how the plan differed from how the site was presently
used. He said that the site plan contained an iron railing and seven
white pines.
Mr. Price noted that the site plan identified parking.
Mr. Thomas stated he intended to comply with the site plan and would
hope that the building would be aesthetically pleasing. He further
Roanoke City Planning Commission Minutes
Page 9
August 1, 1984
stated that General Welding intended to stay in the building and that
was why they were proffering the site plan.
Mr. Sowers asked if outside storage would be permitted on the grassy
area if the site plan were proffered.
Mr. Reynolds stated that no outside storage was shown.
Mr. Thomas stated that Mr. Coffey would be willing to proffer that there
be no outside storage.
Mr. Coffey stated there were two outside storage buildings, but no
outside storage on the grassy area.
Mr. Bradshaw stated he was fundamentally opposed to changing the zoning
to LM in this particular area. He said he could see that an LM zoning
could be accomplished if it fit in to a Macke-type operation. He said
that if a site plan were proffered that had some "teeth" to it, then
there would be room for change. He said there were sheds on the back
side of the property which were not in good condition.
Mr. Bob Arminio stated that it was not the purpose of the site plan to
improve the aesthetics of the property from 1-581. He said the site
plan did make improvements with respect to people along 10th Street.
At this point, Mr. Thomas stated that he could concisely state what had
been implied at the meeting, that being:
1. the proffer of the site plan.
2. the agreement that there be no outside storage.
the agreement that there would be no expansion of the present
facilities in size.
4. the agreement that the sheds would be upgraded.
Mr. Bradshaw asked what the paved area in the back would be used for if
there were no outside storage.
Mr. Coffey stated that the back area was mostly access area to his
dumpster and scrap container.
Mr. Bradshaw asked Mr. Light if a scrap container were considered
outside storage.
Mr. Light stated he would hate to see an operation of this nature have a
condition which did not allow outside storage.
Mr. Coffey responded that he was saying there would be no outside
storage on grassy areas and that General Welding would not use the area
that could be seen from the interstate for outside storage.
Roanoke City Planning Commission Minutes

August 1, 1984
Mr. Buford mentioned that the Roanoke Redevelopment and Housing
Authority (RRHA) was an adjoining property owner. He asked Wesley White
if he had comments.
Mr. Wesley White (RRHA) stated he had checked with representatives at
Hunt Manor and they had no comments relative to the rezoning. He noted
that his concern was what would happen in the future if General Welding
left the site and it was zoned for light manufacturing use. He noted
that he basically concurred with the staff report. He added that he had
nothing against improving the facility.
Mrs. Goode asked for further comments. There being none, she asked for
comments from the audience.
Mr. John Ellis (1903 10th Street) appeared before the Commission and
stated he did not think the property needed to be rezoned. He said he
thought it was dangerous to rezone because of potential future use.
Mr. Reynolds stated that Mr. Roy S. Smith (945 Hunt Avenue) had called
the office and wanted the record to show that he was against the
rezoning request.
Mr. Reynolds noted that as far as the staff reco~endation went, there
was still a great deal of concern about the ability of this particular
zoning to co-exist with the residential zoning, as the relationship is
currently structured. He said he felt the welding company and the
neighborhood had co-existed harmoniously because the Grandfather Clause
situation already restricts what the industrial user could do. He noted
that once the zoning were changed, and the Grandfather Clause
restrictions were lifted, he did not know what the neighborhood could
anchor to for protection. He also noted that commercial uses were
allowable in a light manufacturing zone. He said he did not know what
would happen if General Welding left and someone else took over the site
under an LM zoning.
Mr. Sowers asked if the property were rezoned with proffered conditions
and someone else moved onto the General Welding property, would the new
tenants have to abide by the conditions of the rezoning.
Mr. Reynolds said there seemed to be some question about that.
Mr. Eoynton asked if another zoning, such as IDM were offered, would it
be more compatible.
Mr. Light pointed out that if the property were zoned IDM, then the
property could only he used for processing or manufacturing and there
could be no commercial business in an IDM zone. He said he did not see
the point of going to IDM because it would not solve any of the problems
Mr. Coffey was presently having and the use would not be allowed in an
IDM zone.
Mr. Bradshaw asked if the use could be under the Grandfather Clause in
an IDM zone.
Roanoke City Planning Commission Minutes
Page 11
August 1, 1984
Mr. Light stated it could.
Mr. Thomas stated he might be able to strengtheh the proffered
conditions if he would state he would restrict the proffered conditions
to its current use and current buildings.
Mr. Hackworth stated that was quite permissible to proffer as a
condition.
In view of the last proffer, Mr. Sowers stated he felt the City and the
RRHA would be in better shape by having the site used for the same
purpose and having the property improved. He then made a motion to
recommend approval of the petition with the proffers as stated. The
motion was seconded by Mr. Buford.
Mrs. Goode asked for further discussion.
Mr. Bradshaw asked that it be explained how the property would be
improved. He said he understood there would be a new roof and an iron
fence installed.
Mr. Sowers stated that there would be an outside storage restriction,
which would eliminate some of the present storage of truck bodies on the
green areas.
Mr. Bradshaw stated that he did not hear Mr. Thomas proffer the outside
storage restriction on the green areas.
Mr. Coffey stated there would be no storage on the ~rass~ areas, not on
all the green areas, as shown on the plan.
The condition of the sheds was discussed and Mr. Bradshaw asked if the
sheds would be torn down. He said if a site plan, which clearly
articulated improvement of the site, had been proffered then there would
not be so many problems.
Mr. Sowers asked that the proffers be stated for the record.
Mr. Boynton stated it would be difficult to describe the proffers
without putting them on a drawing. He moved that the Commission table
the mat.ret for two weeks to give the petitioner the opportunity to put
the proffers on a drawing.
Mr. Thomas stated that his understanding was that at the present time he
had proffered the following:
The petitioner will have detailed on the site plan an
upgrading of the sheds.
2. There will be no storage on the grassy areas.
3. Operations will be limited to the current use.
4. Premises will be reroofed.
Roanoke City Planning Commission Minutes
Page 12
August 1, 1984
The building operation will be limited to those buildings
currently on the premises.
Mr. Thomas asked Mr. Bradshaw if the proffers covered his concerns.
Mr. Bradshaw stated that broadly covered his concerns.
Mr. Thomas stated that if he was given two weeks, many of the concerns
noted could be brought back as part of the site plan.
Mr. Sowers questioned whether it was necessary to proffer re-roofing the
building.
Mr. Thomas stated he would withdraw that proffer.
Mr. Buford seconded the substitute motion to table the request for two
weeks. There being no further discussion, the Commission voted 7-0 to
table the request for two weeks.
There being no further discussion the meeting was adjourned at
approximately 3:00 p.m.

Honorable Mayor David A. Bowers
and Members of City Council
Roanoke, Virginia
Dear Members of City Council:
Subject:
Request of Roanoke City Planning Commission to zone certain properties in
the Gainsboro neighborhood as an overlay H-2, Neighborhood Preservation
District, such properties generally being located east of Jefferson Street, north
of Wells Avenue, and south of Patton Avenue, and designated as Official Tax
Numbers 3011401 through 3011411,3011413 through 3011423, 3011425
through 3011437, 3014010, 3012801 through 3012827, 3012846 and
2011002.
Historic Gainsboro Preservation District. Inc. (HGPD). represented by Mrs. Evelyn
Bethel. requested several years a~o that the City consider a local historic district for ~q
portion of Gainsbor0. Action on the request was deferred until recently in accordance
with a plan agreed upon with other neighborhood leaders to address several issues in
G-ainsboro.
B. Gainsboro should be considered for historic designation because:
Gainsborough (now known as Gainsboro) is Roanoke's oldest neighborhood
Initially, Gainsboro was centered around the present intersection ofi-581 and
Orange Avenue. The village predated Roanoke and was established as a township
in 1835. It was commonly referred to as Big Lick. When the Virginia &
Tennessee Railroad arrived in 1852, development moved to the south, closer to
the railroad. The new development became known as Big Lick and Gainsboro
was referred to as Old Lick. Old Lick and Big Lick were combined to form the
Town of Roanoke in 1882 and later the City of Roanoke in 1884.
Wells. Gilmer and Patton Avenues were developed by the Roanoke Land and
Improvement Company in 1881 and 1882 for the officers of the railroad. These
streets contain some of the first houses built by the railroad when it came tO
Roanoke.
3. Employment opportunities with the railroad contributed to the growth of the
African American community in Roanoke. Durine Gainsboro's most rapid

development from 1900-1920. the neighborhood became the commercial l~nd
cultural center of the African American community in Roanoke This community
focus of services, societies, and institutions was uncommon in southern cities at
that time.
Several buildings on the National Re~ister of Historic Places ~xist in the,
neighborhood These include St. Andrew's Roman Catholic Church, the Old First
Baptist Chumh, and the Gainsboro Branch Library. Other buildings such as the
Hotel Roanoke, the Norfolk & Western General Offices, and the Stone Printing
Company Building are also potentially eligible for the Register.
On 9/12/95, the Planning staffmet with neighborhood residents to discuss
neighborhood goals, needs, and district options. Residents generally expressed a
desire to designate the area historic to reco~,nize the imnortance of the neighborhood
to the community, the city. and the downtown. In addition, they indicated a desire to
preserve the neighborhood as well as establish design controls for new buildings.
A second neiehborhood meeting was held on 10/3/95 to discuss recommendations,
boundaries for the district, and identify other issues. It was decided that H-2.
Nei~,hborhood Preservation District, zoning provided the most appropriate
preservation and desi~,n control for the area. The boundaries of the area to be
designated were reduced from what was originally proposed by HGPD.
All property owners were notified of the two previous neighborhood meetings. Maps
~ explaining the purpose of the meeting, summaries of the
designation options, and other detailed information regarding the zoning request were
mailed to each nroperty owner. In addition, a question and answer sheet on the --
12/6/95 Planning Commission meeting was mailed with the zoning notice to property
owners (attached).
Planning Commission nublic hearing was held on 12/6/9~ There was no opposition
to the request. Mrs. Evelyn Bethel, 35 Patton Avenue, N. E., appeared before the
Commission in support of the request. She advised that she and other residents had
worked hard to get the designation to this point and hoped that the overlay district
would preserve the area and the residential neighborhood.
A letter from Downtown Roanoke, Inc. was received on 11/30/95 advising of the
Board of Directors support of the residents' efforts (attached). On 11/13/95, the
Board of the Roanoke Redevelopment and Housing Authority was briefed on the
request by Historic Gainsboro Preservation District, Inc. While the Board took no
official action, they were supportive of the request. A letter was also received from
Elizabeth C. Dill, 335 Huntington Boulevard, N.E., a property owner, who advised
that she would be supportive of the request if others felt that it would be good for the
City and the neighborhood; she advised further that it would require strong

cooperation between the City of Roanoke and the residents living in the area,
especially with respect to the cost of improvements.
II.
Issues:
A.
B.
Underlvin~ zoning of the area is primarily RM-2. A small area is zoned C-3.
Land use of the area is primarily residential. A commercial business exists at the
comer of Gilmer and Commonwealth Avenue and a vacant neighborhood grocery
exists at the comer of Jefferson Street and Gilmer Avenue. The Gainsboro Branch of
the Roanoke City Library is located on Gainsboro Road.
Neighborhood organization for this portion of Gainsboro is the Historic Gainsboro
Preservation District;, Int.
Galnsboro Redevelopment Plan was amemte0 in 1993. Amendments provide for the
establishment ora local historic zoning district. Relevant development goals and
objectives in the amended plan are as follows:
"To retain to the extent possible historical, commercial and institutional structures
in order to provide for new viable business and cultural opportunities in the
Galnsboro Community. To encourage officially designated aporopriate historic
neighborhood overlay districts."
"To retain and to rehabilitate to the extent possible historical residential areas in
order to maintain the Gainsboro neighborhood's long standing heritage as one of
the older residential areas in the City of Roanoke."
Architectural design of new buildings and rehabilitations (when exterior changes are
proposed) would have to be apprgved by the City Architectural Review Board or its
staff. Demolition ofexistin~ buildings would h~v~ to be approved by the Board.
The H-2 District encourages preservation of contributing buildings and structures.
Compatibility of design is ~mphasized in comparison to restoration. Desien review
standards are established in Section 36.1-347 of the City Zoning ordinance and
supplemented by Architectural Design Guidelines that were adopted in 1995.
The Board meets on a monthly basis to review requests. There is no application fee.
Some minor requests, such as privacy fences, decks, and construction not visible from
the street can be handled administratively in approximately one week.
F. Comprehensive Plan recommends that:
Members of City Council
Page 4
1. Neighborhoods are an essential element in Roanoke's quality of life.
Neighborhood enhancement, preservation, imnrovement, and development should
~ through public, private and voluntary action.
2. Preservation of archaeological sites, historic districts, landmark features, and
historic structures should be supported and significant structures should be
preserved.
3. Priority should be given to maintenance and rehabilitation of sound, usable
structures rather than demolition. Traditional and historical features should be
preserved to the extent practical.
4. Development of facilities and activities which would enhance Roanoke's roi0 as a
convention and tourism site should be encouraged.
III. Alternatives:
A. City Council anprove the zoning request.
1. H-2 zonin~t district olaced over the existin~ 1LM-2 and C-3 zones.
3. Gainsboro Historic Preservation District, Inc. suppo~s the zoning.
4. District is consistent with Redevelopment Plan. Plan should be amended
following the designation to delineate area zoned H-2.
5. Exterior chan~es to buildings, new construction, and demolitions mu~ lpe
approved bv the City Architectural Review B0;~rd or its staff in accordance with
city code and adopted guidelines.
6. Comnrehensive Plan followed. Historic area preserved and protected.
B. ~ the zoning request.
1. Zoning remains ~;nchanged.
3. Gainsboro Historic Preservation District. Inc. could consider other options for
historic designation and preservation of area.
Members of City Council

4. Redevelopment Plan could still be followed. Other alternative designations could
be pursued.
5. Exterior chanaes, new construction and demolitions would not have to be
anproved by the Architectural Review Board
6. Comprehensive Plan could still be followed Other alternative designations could
be pursued.
IV. Recommendation:
The Plannin~ Commission recommended apnroval of the zonin~ request by a unanimous
vote of 7-0. This portion of the Galnsboro neighborhood is worthy of local H-2,
Neighborhood Preservation District, designation. The district is consistent with the
Gainsboro Redevelopment Plan and will preserve and protect an important cultural and
historic part of Roanoke's heritage. Historic districts in other parts of the City have been
successful in revitalizing and increasing investment in neighborhoods and in protecting
historic environments for residents, other citizens, and visitors.

ZONING REQUEST FOR GAINSBORO
ROANOKE CITY PLANNING COMMISSION 12/6/95
GENERAL INFORMATION FOR PROPERTY OWNERS
m
Why is Gainsboro being considered for a change in zoning?
Residents of the area, working with the Historic Gainsboro Preservation District, Inc.
organization, requested that the City consider local historic designation for a
portion of the Gainsboro neighborhood in recognition of its historic and cultural
importance to the larger Gainsboro neighborhood and the City of Roanoke.
Gainsboro is Roanoke's oldest neighborhood, established as a township in 1835.
Wells, Gilmer and Patton Avenues were developed in 1881 and 1882 by the
Roanoke Land & Improvement Company for officers of the railroad and contain
some of the first houses built by the railroad when it came to Roanoke. Several
buildings on the National Register of Historic Places already exist in the
neighborhood (St. Andrews, Hotel Roanoke, Gainsboro Library). Others are
potentially eligible. Gainsboro is especially important for its development between
1900 and 1920 when the neighborhood was a commercial and cultural center of the
African American community in Roanoke.
What is H-2, Neighborhood Preservation District Zoning and how
will it affect my property?
The H-2 District is intended to preserve important architecture and historic
character, ensure that new construction is compatible with existing buildings, and
encourage the rehabilitation of buildings rather than demolition. A City Architectural
Review Board reviews certain exterior changes and additions to existing buildings,
demolitions and construction of new buildings. Prior to receiving a building permit
for any of these activities, a property owner must have the construction approved by
the Board.
The H-2 District is an overlay zoning district that is placed upon an area in addition
to existing zoning district that regulates how a property can be used (residence,
office, etc.). At present, most of the properties in the area being considered for H-2
zoning are zoned RM-2, Residential Multi-Family; a few are zoned C-3, Central
Business District. These zoning classifications will not change. The H-2 zoning
would be in addition to these classifications.
3. What construction must be reviewed by the Architectural Review
Board?
New buildinqs & structures, including signs, decks, fences, and parking lots
Additions to buildings
Reconstruction of buildings when a different desiqn is proposed
Installation of sidinq, roofing materials, & windows when a different design is
proposed.
Demolition of a building.
Work Not Requirin.q Rev ew, includes:
Ordinary maintenance and repair
Replacement of features when the design is the same.
How will the H-2 designation affect my property values?
In other parts of the City, the H-2 district generally has stabilized property values
and even resulted in increased property values. Preserving important features and
buildings can protect property values for those investing in historic areas.
The H-2 District encourages compatibility in design as opposed to strict restoration.
Flexibility in design and materials is an important feature of the district. The district
allows for the installation of vinyl siding, fibergla,ss shingle replacement roofing,
privacy fences and decks. Painting is not regulated.
Some financial incentives are available for property owners in the H-2 District such
as a 10-year tax abatement on increased investments for qualifying properties. City
sponsored housing programs also are available to qualified properties and owners.
If the area is later listed on the National Register of Historic Places, federal
investment tax credits of up to 20% of the rehabilitation costs are available for
income producing properties who meet certain standards.
What are the next steps in the designation process? Where can I
get more information?
After the Planning Commission public hearing, the Commission will make its
recommendation to City Council, who will make the final decision on the H-2 District
designation. If action is taken by the Planning Commission on 12/6/95, it is
anticipated that City Council would consider the designation at it meeting on
1 / 16/96.

PROPOSED HISTORIC DESIGNATION FOR GAINSBORO
SUMMARY OF DESIGNATION OPTIONS
PUBLIC WORKSHOP 9/12/95
State and National Historic Designation:
Areas and individual properties may be designated as historic by placement on the
Virginia Landmarks Register and the National Register of Historic Places.
Designation on these registers:
· Increases public awareness and recoqnition of the historic property
· Does not restrict a property owner in using, building, or demolishing the property
when private funds are utilized.
· Provides federal tax incentives when rehabilitating buildings for income
purposes.
· Allows for special consideration in planninq for federally funded proiects Effects
on historic properties must be evaluated, minimized, and mitigated.
· Restricts how federal funds may be used for a property (i.e. building rehabilitation
must be done according to specific standards to protect the historic integrity of
the property).
Local Designation:
Areas and individual properties may also be designated by the local government by
placement in a local zoning district, sometimes referred to as a historic or
conservation district. There are many types of districts, each with specific regulations
and review processes. In the City of Roanoke, the districts are:
1. H-l, Historic District
· Designates areas or structures that are on or eligible for the State or
National Reqisters.
· Administered by a council-appointed Architectural Review Board.
· Requires review for all exterior chanqes to a building, including signs and
paint color. Demolition and additions are also reviewed.
· Encourages restoration of buildings according to strict standards.
H-2, Neighborhood Preservation District
· Designates areas of special community siqnificance to ensure their
preservation.
· Administered by the Architectural Review Board.
· Requires review of new buildinqs, additions, and demolitions.
Rehabilitation of existing buildings is also reviewed when the installation of
materials of a different design is proposed.
· Encourages compatibility in design. Standards are more flexible and less
stringent than in H-1.
ND, Neighborhood Design District
· Designates areas having historic or unique architectural value to
encourage revitalization, protection of area character, and construction of
compatible new buildings.
· Administered by the City Zoninq Administrator,
· Requires review of new buildinqs only.
· Encourages compatibility in design. Design standards are being
developed.

Roanoke City Planning Commission
January 16, 1996
The Honorable David A. Bowers, Mayor
and Members of City Council
Roanoke, Virginia
Dear Members of Council:
Subject:
Application of the Roanoke City Planning Commission to permanently close
and discontinue Belle Aire Circle, S.W., at its intersection with Brandon
Avenue, S.W., but without vacation of any part of the street right-of-way.
Houston Bell 0f3815 Belle Aire Circle, S.W., initially submitted an application to
close and permanently vacate a 230 foot section of Belle Aire Circle, S.W.
'n. PJ~!L~llali,~[~, on November 14, 1994, recommended to City Council that
Belle Aire Circle, S.W., be closed and barricaded at its intersection with Brandon
Avenue, S.W., for a temporary period of one year.
Recommendation provided that City staffwas to review the effectiveness and overall
impact of the closure on the adjacent community. City staffwas to report its findings
to the Planning Commission at the conclusion of the specified period of time.
City Council adopted the recommendation of the Planning Commission on
November 14, 1994. Ordinance No. 32255-112895 became effective on December
5, 1994.
Issue~ related to the subject closure were detailed in a staff report presented to City
Council on that date (see attached report dated November 14, 1994).
II. Current Situation:
' ff~iI~t~Ig~l~ the subject street on numerous occasions during the study
period. No traffic problems or difficulties in the movement of vehicular or
pedestrian traffic has been detected or observed at any time.
Room162 MunicipalBuilding 215ChurchAvenue, S.W. Roanoke, Virginia24011 (703)981-2344
Members of Council

Tr i n in r r s that the temporary closure has had no adverse impact on
traffic or traffic needs in the area.
Fire Department reports that a solid barrier of the type generally used to restrict
traffic at dead-end streets would block and delay their access to the properties within
the immediate community. This delay would lengthen response time by two
additional minutes. Fire Department, however, would have no objection to the
permanent closure of the street if the closure is effected by means of mountable curb
and low-scale landscaping at Brandon Avenue, S.W.
City staff has received a letter signed by 17 resident/owners of properties on the
subject street supporting the proposed permanent closure of the street.
City staffhas received one letter from residents in the community stating that they
would be o~Dosed to the closure unless the City widened Belie Aire Circle, S.W. to
allow for the side-by-side passage of two vehicles.
Pavement on Belle Aire Circle, S.W. has since been widened by surface treatment
to allow for the additional and necessary width.
Planning Commission, on December 6, 1995, reviewed the findings of City staff`on
the effect of the temporary closure and its overall impact on the adjacent
neighborhood.
Public comment and discussion was duly requested by the Commission at the public
hearing. No opposition to the proposed closure was expressed by anyone in
attendance.
III. Recommendation:
Planning Commission. bv a vote of 7-0. recommends that City Council an~rove the
permanent closure and discontinuance of Belle Aire Circle, S.W., at its intersection with
Brandon Avenue S.W., but without vacation of any part of the street right-of-way, subject
to the following conditions:
Existing temporary closure by barricade of Belle Aim Circle, S.W., at its intersection
with Brandon Avenue, S.W., shall remain in place until the proposed widening of
Brandon Avenue, S.W., by the Virginia Department of Transportation, commences
in the near future.
City Traffic Engineer shall contact and work with appropriate officials of the
Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) to effect the design and installation
of mountable curbing or other similar designs to achieve a physical closure (but one
that would still be accessible for emergency purposes) of Belle Aire Circle, S.W., at
Members of Council
Page 3
its intersection with Brandon Avenue, S.W., as a part of VDOT's overall design for
the widening of Brandon Avenue, S.W. (See attached Map A).
The City Horticulturalist shall therea~er install Iow-scale landscape materials
(maximum 30" high) across the existing Belle Aire Circle, S.W., right -of-way
behind the Brandon Avenue, S.W., sidewalk area, upon the removal of an
appropriately-sized section of the existing pavement of Belle Aire Circle, S.W., by
the Department of Public Works (see attached Map B).
The final proposed design of the VDOT curbing or other type design and the
proposed Iow-scale landscaping shall be subject to the approval of the City Fire
Marshal or his designee.

Avenue, S.W. )
Members of Council:
On July 1, 1994, Houston Bell of 3815 Belle Aire Circle, S.W., submitted an original
application to close and permanently vacate a certain 230 foot section of Belle Aire Circle, S.W.
and
The Planning Commission, upon review and consideration of said application,
recommended that City Council approve the closure and discontinuance of the subject street, but
without vacation of any part of the street right-of-way, for a temporary period of one year, as a
means of providing City staffwith sufficient time to study the overall effect of said closure and
discontinuance on the adjacent community; and
The study has now been completed and a determination has been made that said closure
will have no adverse effect upon the adjacent community. The substance of this study has been
outlined in a report to the Planning Commission, dated December 6, 1995.
Therefore, the Roanoke City Planning Commission respectfully requests that the above-
cited street be closed and discontinued without vacation, by City Council pursuant to Section
15.1-364 of the Code of the Commonwealth of Virginia, (1950), as amended and Section 30-14
of the Roanoke City Code, 1979, as amended.

Subject:
Amended Request of Mr. Houston Bell for the City to close
Belle Aire Circle, S.W., on a temporary basis for a specified
time period not to exceed one year from the date of adoption by
City Council of an ordinance providing for said closure.
Dear Members of the Planning Commission:
Belle Aire Circle. S. W,, is a public street that was annexed into the City in
1976. The street right-of-way extends between Crestmoor Avenue and
Brandon Avenue (Lee-Hi Road), S. W. (see attached Map 'A').
Right-of-Way of Belle Aire Circle provides access to the premises of 2 I
property owners. Right-of-way of this street varies from a width of 30 feet, at
its northerly approach to Brandon Avenue, to a width of approximately 45
feet, along its westerly course to Crestmoor Avenue.
Street was originally constructed at a sub-standard oaved-way-width (asphalt
area) of approximately fifteen (15) feet, with no abutting curbs, gutters, or
sidewalks. There is no public drainage system in the immediate area.
Subdivision of land. dedication of a new adioinin~ strut (Belle Aire Lane) and
the construction of a number of new single family dwellings has occurred
within this immediate community during the past year (see attached Map 'A').
City_ staff, in response to a request from the applicant and approximately 12
residents of Belle Aire Circle, met at Mr. Bell's residence in ~une 199a. to
discuss the subject of closing a po~on of Belle Afire Ckcle, S. W.

November 14, 1994
An~licafion to 'close the street was received on July 8, 1994. Application
requested that the City permanently close, vacate and discontinue Belle Aim
Circle, S. W., at its entrance to Brandon Avenue. The anplication submitted
by Mr. Belt cites the following reasons as justification for the subject closure:
All abutting landowners have been notified and a very large majority
are in agreement that the street should be closed.
Belle Aire Circle is a narrow, sleepy street, 14 feet wide, with no
Entering and exiting from this street onto Brandon Avenue is, at best,
precarious, as visibility to oncoming traffic is zero.
The street is presently being used by many large trucks carrying heavy
equipment and by automobiles as a needless and unnecessary short cut
from Route 419.
C. ~ also included the following speci~c request:
"4.
With due respect, the landowners of Belle Aire Circle, $.W., ask the
City of Roanoke to thoughtfully consider covering any expense incurred
for a cul-de-sac should one prove necessary."
· ' to close and ~ vacate a portion of Belle
Abe Circle, S.W., was initially reviewed by the Planning Commission at its
regular meeting of September 7, 1994.
£:
Planning Commission retmrt recommended that the subject street be closed by
barricade, ~ of any part of the street right-of-wayand
further recommended the installation of a public turnaround of the proposed
terminus of the street. Residents in attendance at the meeting were in
disagreement as to the most appropriate location for this turnaround.
Commission continued the matter in order to provide staff with ample time to
reduce this area of concern.
~ was reviewed by the Commission at its regular meeting
of October 5, 1994. Application, as amended, includes the following changes:
Applicant requests that the street be closed on a temporary l~asis by
means of a barricade for a specified period of time not to exceed 12
Members of Council
Page 3
November 14, 1994
months'from the date of the adoption by City Council of an ordinance
providing for such closure.
I~. Issues:
Amended application requests that the public turnaround be provided
during this time period at the "t' shaped juncture of the street as shown
on the map attached to his application.
A. Neighborhood convenience/inconvenience.
B. Traffic impact.
C. Utilities within the public right-of-way.
D. Creation of a dead-end street.
E. Relationship to the Comprehensive Plan.
IV. Alternatives:
Recommend that CiW Council approve the applicant's amended anulication to
close Belle Aire Cixcle, S. W., on a temporary basis for a specified time
period of one year, but without vacation of any part of the street right-of-way,
thereby recommending that said temporary closure be effected by barricade as
shown and described on Map "B" as attached to this report, subject to certain
conditions outlined in part V of this report.
1. Nei~,hborhood conveni~i~Oilvenience:
(a) Neighborhood convenience:
All "cut-through' traffic will be eliminated by closure of
the street at its Brandon Avenue intersection.
Potential for any future increase in "cut-through" traffic
as a result of the planned Peters Creek Road extension,
and/or the widening of Brandon Avenue will also be
eliminated.
Noise, and other related problems generally associated
with cut-through traffic will be eliminated. Future
Members of Council
Page 4
November 14, 1994
privacy, solitude and security of the immediate
residential community wRl be ensured and preserved.
(b) Neighborhood inconvenience:
Future access to the neighborhood for police, fire and
emergency services will be via Keagy Road and
Crestmoor Avenue from the north, and via Deyerle
Road, Cravens Creek Road and Crestmoor Avenue from
the east (see attached Map C).
Fire department reports that its response time to
residences on this street will be increased by two (2~
minutes. Fire department advises, however, that it
would have no objection to the closure if the following
provisions are made:
The City retains the public right-of-way to its
intersection with Brandon Avenue.
The barrier to be installed at the street terminus is
designed to be opened, removed or knocked down
to accommodate emergency access for fire
department vehicles.
Access to Brandon Avenue for neighborhood and "cut-through"
traffic will be availnhle via Crestmoor Avenue and Keagy Road,
S. W., or via Deyerle Road, Cravens Creek Road and
Creatmoor Avenue (see at~ached Map C).
Closure of this street will have little, if any, impact or effect on
general traffic or traffic n_,~!__s in the immediate area. It will,
however, serve to enhance, protect and preserve the future
character and tranquility of the surrounding residential
community.
Existing public access from Belie Aire Circle to Brandon
Avenue will be eliminated. Traffic moving to and from Belle
Aire Circle is currently hampered by an insufficient sight
distance and visibility of on-coming traffic along Brandon
Members of Council
Page 5
November 14, 1994
Avenue. (Note: Proposed widening of Brandon Avenue will
eliminate this problem at a future date).
Planned Peters Creek Road extension and the future widening of
Brandon Avenue could potentially result in traffic increases
(cut-through) on this obvious %hort-cut' street, similar to the
situation that developed on Wright Road, S. W., several years
ago.
3. U~ili~ies within the oublic right-of-way:
(a) Utilities will not be an issue.
(b) City will not vacate any portion of the street right-of-way.
Creation of a dead-end strict: Closure, by barricade, of the street as
requested will create a dead-end street.
Street junction near the southerly end of Belle Aim Circle will
provide a sufficient area for a "T" turnaround (see Map A).
A barrier designed to be opened, removed or knocked down will
have to be installed at the point of closure, subject to the
approval of th~ City Fire Department.
Street signs de~xing 'No thoroughfare" and "Dead End" will
have to be hmalled at appwpriate comers at the intersection of
Crestmoor/Belle A/re Circle and at the juncture of the area
designated fo~ 'T' turnaround movements (See Map A).
Relationship to the Co~'hensive Plan: The applicant's request is
con.si.stent with tl~ in~nt of the Comprehensive Plan, "to protect and
enhance the charac~ ~d slability of neighborhoods. #
B=
Recommend that City Co~mcil deny the app_ licant's request to close and vacate
the described section of Belle Aim Circle, S. W.
~[~lfl~[lIlI~iI: Neighborhood will continue to be adversely
affected by cut-thrmlgh traffic.
Traffic impact: Traffic passing through this narrow section of street
will continue to increase as a result of the following:
Members of Council
Page 6
November 14, 1994
(a)
New residential development occurring within the neighborhood
and the surrounding area.
Proposed Peters Creek Road Extension and the widening of
Brandon Avenue in the near future.
Traffic entering and exiting Belle Aim Circle from, or onto Brandon
Avenue will continue to be affected by insufficient sight distances and
visibility uniil such time as Brandon Avenue is widened.
3. Utilities within the nublic rib, bt-of-way will not be an issue.
4. Creation of a dead-end street will not be an issue.
5. Relationshio to the Comnrehensive Plan will not be an issue.
V. Recommendation:
The Planning Commission, by a vote of 6-0 (Mr. Bradshaw absent) recommends that
City Coundl approve the applicants request to close Belle Airo Circle, S. W., on a
temporary basis for a specified time period of one year from the date of adoption of
the ordinance providing for said closure, but without vacation of any pan of the street
right-of-way, thereby recommending that said closure be effected by barricade, as
shown and described on Map 'B' as attached to this report, subject to the following
conditions:
The applicant shall provide for the construction and installation of a l~ysical
barrier at the intersection of Belle Aire Circle, S.W., and Brandon Avenue,
S.W., designed to be opened, removed or knocked down. The design and
installation of this barrier shall be subject to .the approval of the City Fire
City staff shall review the effectiveness and overall impact of the temporary
closure on the adjacent community during the one year period of closure. City
staff will report its findings to the Planning Commission within three momhs
of the time period to provide for a final recommendation to City Council o~
the question of permanent closure by barricade.
If a barricade specified herein has not been installed by the applicant and
approved by the City Fire Department within a period of twelve (12) months
from the date of the ordinance providing for 'the subject temporary closure.

Application of the Roanoke City Planning Commission )
to permanently close and discontinue, ~ithout vacation )Application for
Belle Aire Circle, S.W., at its intersection with Brandon )Street Closure
Avenue, SW. )
Members of Council:
On July 1, 1994, Houston Bell of 3815 Belle Aire Circle, S.W., submitted an original
application to close and permanently vacate a certain 230 foot section of Belle Aire Circle, S.W.
and
The Planning Commission, upon review and consideration of said application,
recommended that City Council approve the closure and discontinuance of the subject street, but
without vacation of any part of the street right-of-way, for a temporary period of one year, as a
means of providing City staff with sufficient time to study the overall effect of said closure and
discontinuance on the adjacent community; and
The study has now been completed and a determination has been made that said closure
will have no adverse effect upon the adjacent community. The substance of this study has been
outlined in a report to the Planning Commission, dated December 6, 1995.
Therefore, the Roanoke City Planning Commission respectfully requests that the above-
cited street be closed and discontinued without vacation, by City Council pursuant to Section
15.1-364 of the Code of the Commonwealth of Virginia, (1950), as amended and Section 30-14
of the Roanoke City Code, 1979, as amended.
Respectfully submitted,
Carolyn H. Coles, Chairman
Roanoke City Planning Commission
