Dear Members of Council:
Subject: Professional Certification Within the Building Department
I. The Virginia Statewide Uniform Building Code requires that the Building
Commissioner be certified as competent in building cunstruction.
II. One of the requirements of this certification is successful completion of a
certification examination for Professional Code Administrators developed
by the National Academy of Code Administration.
III. This certification examination covers management, legal issues, and
technical details of building construction and code administration.
IV. Only about 17% of those taking the Professional Code Administrator examina-
tion pass it on the first attempt.
V. Ron Miller~ the City's Building Commissioner/Zoning Admnistrator) and Ron
Smith) Chief Building Inspector, took the CPCA Examination last spring and
passed.
VI. The successful passing of this test by these two men is testament to their
knowledge and ability in Building Code administration. The City should be
proud to have staff of their caliber serving it.

installation of the Project, the Authority hereby agrees that
the Company may proceed with plans for the Project, enter

financing and the acquisition and installation of the
Project, including the fees and expenses of bond counsel,
counsel to the Authority and the agent or underwriter for the

resolution be considered as "official action" toward the
issuance of the bonds within the meaning of the regulations
issued by the Internal Revenue Service pursuant to Section
144 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.
9. The Authority shall perform such other acts and
adopt such further resolutions as may be required to
implement its undertakings as hereinabove set forth, and if
requested by the Company, it will make application to the

necessary in the opinion of bond counsel. To that end, the
Chairman or Vice Chairman of the Authority is hereby
authorized to execute an appropriate power of attorney naming
counsel selected by the Company for such purposes.

Delivered with this letter is a packet of information
required by law to be presented to the City Council, and the
Authority's request that City Council adopt a resolution at
your June 15, 1987 meeting approving the issuance of industrial

enacted Tax Reform Act of 1986, that there have been a local
public hearing, approval by the City Council, and that the
Company requesting the financing have available to it a binding
commitment for the placement of the bonds or a letter of credit

Ail of the above requirements have been met except for
City Council approval.
The Honorable Mayor and Members

SUBJECT: Amendments to Blue Cross Blue Shield Hospitalization and Health
Insurance Contract
I. BACKGROUND:
ae
The present hospitalization and health insurance contract is with
Blue Cross Blue Shield of Virginia and expires December 31, 1987.
Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1986 (COBRA), a
new Federal Law, requires employers sponsoring group health
insurance plans to offer employees and their families the option,
at the employee's expense, of temporary extension of health
coverage upon separation from the City.
Ail City employees participating in the group health insurance
program were notified of new Federal Law and option of extended
coverage by letter of December 23, 1986. (Attachment I)
Additional providers of benefits have been added to all Blue
Cross Blue Shield contracts as follows: (Attachment II)
1. Licensed Clinical Social Workers
2. Licensed Professional Counselors
3. Licensed Registered Physical Therapists
City Attorney's office has reviewed and approved both amendments
to the contract as legally sound.
II. CURRENT SITUATION:
Two amendments to current Blue Cross contract require City
Council approval in order to provide for Blue Cross
administration of COBRA and new benefits for additional
providers. (Attachment III & IV)
Blue Cross Blue Shield of Virginia has administered the City's
COBRA requirements since January, 1987, at an estimated annual
cost to the City of $6,325 ($.35 per employee on 1,506 covered
employees). $3,163 is needed to pay for these services through
the end of the current fiscal year.
C. COBRA administration requires the following activities.
Notification of employee and/or dependents of right to
continue benefits.
Coordination of applications and payments to Total Program
Administration (Division of Blue Cross Blue Shield).
Hon[rable Mayor and City Council
Page 2
3. Tracking of various time periods and payments.
4. Continued monitoring of eligibility requirements.
Additional providers of benefits were effective April 1, 1987,
at no additional cost to employer or employee.
III. ISSUES:
A. Cost
B. Compliance with Law
C. Improved health care coverage
IV. ALTERNATIVES:
Council authorize the City Manager to execute two amendments to
Blue Cross Blue Shield Hospitalization and Health Insurance
contract to provide for administration of COBRA compliance and to
provide for additional providers of benefits.
Cost for COBRA compliance would be $6,325 annually at $.35
per employee. Additional providers of benefits would be no
additional cost to employee or City.
Compliance with the new Federal COBRA Law would be
satisfied.
Improved health care and hospitalization coverage would be
provided to employees.
Do not approve amendments to Blue Cross Blue Shield
hospitalization and health insurance contract to provide for
administration of COBRA compliance and to provide for additional
providers of benefits.
1. Cost would not be an issue.
2. Compliance with the new Federal COBRA Law would not be met.
3. Improved health care coverage would not occur.
V. RECOMMENDATION:
Council authorize the City Manager to execute two amendments to
Blue Cross Blue Shield hospitalization and health insurance
contract to provide for administration of COBRA compliance and to
provide for additional providers of benefits. (Alternative A
above)

SUBJECT: Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act (COBRA)
WHAT IS COBRA?
Effective January 1, 1987, you, as an employee of the City of Roanoke may
continue group Blue Cross Blue Shield coverage for youself and/or your
covered dependents under certain circumstances. You will be required to
take specific actions in order to exercise your rights to continued
coverage. So both you and your spouse should take the time to read this
notice carefully and save it for future reference.
On April 7, 1986, a new federal law, (COBRA), was enacted which requires
employers sponsoring group health plans offer employees and their families
the opportunity for a temporary extension of health coverage (called
"continuation coverage") at group rates in certain instances where coverage
under the plan would otherwise end. The compliance to the law is required
at the beginning of the first plan year after July 1, 1986, which for the
City of Roanoke is January 1, 1987.
WHEN DOES '~1t/~ CONTINUATION PROVISION APPLY9
The continuation provision applies when you or a covered dependent
experience a situation (called a "qualifying event") which would normally
result in your loss of coverage under the City of' Roanoke Blue Cross Blue
Shield Plan. You may choose to continue your present coverage for up to 18
months (11/2 years) in the event of:
(1) the termination of your employment, either voluntary or
involuntary (unless you are discharged for gross misconduct);
(2) a reduction in your work hours.
Also,
up to 36 months
covered dependents may choose to continue their present
(3 years) in the event of your:
(1) death;
or
coverage for
(2) divorce or legal separation;
(3) entitlement to Medicare; or
(4) dependent child ceasing to be a dependent child as defined in the
plan.

(COBRA)
HOW LONG IS COVERAGE CONTINUED?
In general, coverage may be continued for 18 months after the date of the
qualifying event in the case of termination of employment or reduction of
hours, and for 36 months for all other events listed above.
Coverage could be ended earlier than the above dates if:
(1) you or your covered dependent become a covered employee under
another group health plan;
(2) you or your dependent become eligible for Medicare;
(3) your former spouse remarries and becomes covered by another group
health plan;
(4) you or your covered dependents fail to make a required premium
payment;
(5) the City stops providing group health insurance for employees.
You must notify your Benefits Coordinator when 1), (2) or (3) happen.
HOW MUCH DOES CONTINUED COVERAGE COST?
The cost for continued coverage after a qualifying event will be the entire
Blue Cross Blue Cross premium plus 2% to cover administrative costs. You
may choose to pay in monthly installments and your first payment must be
made no later than 45 days after the date that continued coverage is
chosen. Your payments will be mailed directly to Blue Cross Blue Shield.
The Benefits Coordinator can provide yo6 with proper forms to complete and
a payment schedule. The total costs, including the 2% administrative fee,
are as follows:
Single $ 64.85
Subscriber + 1 97.25
Family 162.93
When you elect your continued group coverage, the coverage is effective
from the first day after your regular coverage would have ended, no matter
when you choose the option. This means that the premiums must be paid for
the entire period of time (back to the last day of regular coverage)
because coverage is retroactive.
HOW DO YOU OBTAIN CONTINU~u COVERAGE?
You must notify the Benefits Coordinator when "qualifying events" occur
which qualify you for continued coverage:
You or your covered dependent must notify the Benefits Coordinator within
60 days in 'the event of:
Divorce or legal separation
Child losing dependent status
Co: ~olidated Budget Reconciliation Act (COBRA)
Page 3
The City of Roanoke will notify the Benefits Coordinator within 30 days in
the event of:
Termination of employment
Reduction in hours
Your death
Your entitlement to Medicare
Then, within 14 days of receiving notification the Benefits Coordinator
will notify you or your covered dependents of the right to choose continued
coverage. If you choose continuation coverage, the City of Roanoke is
required to give you coverage which is identical to the coverage provided
under the group plan to similarly situated employees and family members.
You or your covered dependents will have 60 days to request continued
coverage in writing. The 60-day period begins on the later of (1) the date
your coverage terminates by reason of the qualifying event or (2) the date
you or your covered dependents were notified of your right to choose
continued coverage. You will not be required to furnish evidence of
insurability.
If you do not choose continuation coverage your group insurance coverage
will end as scheduled following the date of the qualifying event.

Dear Group Administrator:
Benefits for new providers now availabln
Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Virginia is adding benefits for additional
providers to all our contracts effective April l, 1987. There will be noi
increase in the monthly rates to add this important benefit.
Starting April 1, 1987, the following providers will be added to the list
of covered providers in your contract: .licensed clinical social workers;
· licensed professional counselors; and
· licensed registered physical therapists.
This change means that these providers may bill Blue Cross and Blue Shield
of Virginia directly for their services. Previously, the services of these
providers were covered only if they were employed by and were billing
through another covered provider listed in your contract.
The types of covered services available under your program will not change.
For example, financial and marital counseling are not covered services now.
They are not covered regardless pf who bills for them. Financial and
marital counseling will remain non-covered services even after these three
new categories of providers are added to your contract.
Only licensed clinical social workers, licensed professional Counselors and
licensed registered physical therapists who contract with Blue Cross and
Blue Shield of Virginia will be reimbursed directly. Payment for services
of non-contracting providers will be sent to the subscriber.
The addition of this benefit will give your employees an alternate place to
receive care that may be less expensive. Blue Cross and Blue Shield of
Virginia has developed reduced UCR and KeyCare allowances for the services
of these providers. Therefore, this change will be made to your program at
no additional monthly cost to you.
What do you have to do?
Please sign both copies of the enclosed amendment, send one copy to us in.
the envelope provided and keep one copy for yourself. Please mail the
amendment back to us as soon as possible. Your new benefits will be
effective April 1, 1987.
We are soliciting new contracting agreements from all three categories of
providers so they will be able to file claims directly for 'your employees
and accept our allowances as payment in full.
If you have questions about this new coverage or if we can help you in any
way, please contact your nearest Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Virginia
office.
Sincerely,
Charles H. Wilson, III
Director, Marketing Services

Dear Members of Council:
I. Background
SUBJECT:
Funding for the Fifth
District Employment and
Training Consortium
The Consortium administers the Title II-B Summer Youth
Program for economically disadvantaged youth. The pro-
gram runs from May 1 to September 30 of each year.
The Governor's Employment and Training Department
utilizes a portion of JTPA funds to reward Service De-
livery Areas exceeding their performance standards for
the Title II-A Program.
Roanoke City was chosen as one of six localities in the
State of Virginia to be a pilot agency to participate
in an innovative program called Grant Diversion, also
known as Project Trade. The Consortium will operate
the on-the-job training aspects of the program under a
contract with the Department of Social Services. Coun-
cil approved the agreement at it's May 4, 1987 meeting.
The City of Roanoke is the grant recipient for Consor-
tium funding. City Council must appropriate all grant
funding the Consortium receives.
II. Present Situation
Carryover funds from last year's Summer Youth Program
amounted to $23~295.00.
Bo
New Summer Youth funding was received in the amount of
$454,054.00. This amount represents a thirty per cent
cut from the previous year. A total of 392 youth from
the Fifth Planning District are planned to be served.
228 of the total will be youth from Roanoke City.
Members of City Council

June ]5 , 1987
The Consortium exceeded all the performance standards
prescribed by the Governor's Employment and Training
Department for Title II-A last year. $66,365.00 was
awarded to the Consortium for its performance. The
performance standards achieved were reported to Council
on February 23, 1987 and included:
1)
2)
3)
A placement rate of 60%
Total placements of 267
Average wage at placement
$4.25 an hour
DJ
The on-the-job training (OJT) segment of Project Trade
is currently being implemented by the Consortium. Pro-
~ect Trade is funded for the balance of the year by a
4,962.00 contract with the Roanoke City Department of
Social Services. Continued funding is expected for the
next fiscal year.
III. Issues
A. Program Operation
B. Funding
C. Timing
IV. Alternatives
Appropriate $525~381.00 of Consortium funding and es-
tablish a revenue estimate for $525~381.00 in accounts
to be established by the Director of Finance.
Program Operations Planned programs will serve
those eligible, contracts will be awarded to ser-
vice providers, and Consortium staffing assign-
ments will be made.
2. Funding - $525,381.00 is available from grantor
agencies at no cost to the city.
Timin~ - Immediate action will allow programs to
~-~ implemented and completed by required dates.
Do not appropriate $525~381.00 of Consortium funding
and do not establish a revenue estimate for
$525z381.00.

Program Operations - Planned programs will cease,
contracts will not be awarded and additional Con-
sortium staff layoffs will result.
o
Funding - Not a factor.
Timing - Any delay will cause the late start up of
programs and underexpenditure of available funds.
V. Recommendation

Appropriate $525~381.00 of Consortium funding and es-
tablish a revenue estimate for $525~381.00 in accounts

Dear Members of Council:
Subject: Fire Department Station Uniforms
Back,round
A. National Fire Protection Association (NFPA)
Standard 1981 (85 Edition) established
criteria for fire suppression personnel work
uniforms. This standard requires that
uniforms worn beneath standard protective
clothing be made of fire retardant materials.
When this standard was issued, the majority
of the nation's Fire Departments were wearing
100% polyester uniforms. The use of 100%
polyester material has been proven to
intensify the severity of burns as a result
of the polyester melting and adhering to the
skin of firefighters.
Fire Department Administrative Staff and a
committee of Fire Suppression personnel
collected data and analyzed all available
flame retardant fabrics in use for station
work uniforms. The following criteria was
used in the analysis process:
1. Compliance with NFPA Standard 1981/85
2. Appearance
3. Comfort
4. Cost
Fabrics studied and analyzed were:
1. Polyester/Cotton
2. Fire Retardant Cotton

of high cost factor. Fire retardant cotton
and FIRIC have proven to be the best choice
of fabrics for our needs.
CURRENT SITUATION
The Roanoke Fire Department is currently
using 100% Polyester station work uniforms.
As a result of previously mentioned potential
for injury, there is concern on the part of
the Administrative Staff and the Fire
Suppression Division as to the safety factor
involving Polyester work uniforms. There is
also concern for the level of Workers'
Compensation liability to the City in the
event any of our personnel are injured as a
result of Polyester work uniforms.

Honorable Mayor and City Council
Roanoke, Virginia
Dear Members of Council:
Subject Shrine Hill Park Tennis Courts
I. Background
Three (3) lighted tennis courts located at the Shrine Hill
Park (near Patrick Henry High School campus) have been closed
to the public because of the unsafe condition of the playing
surface. This nine (9) year old court surface has developed
pot-holes and cracks on all three (3) courts.
B. Use of these tennis courts, prior to their closing, was ex-
tensive:
1. Recreation play by neighborhood residents.
2. Tennis programs of the:
a. Patrick Henry High School
b. Woodrow Wilson Junior High School
c. City's Department of Parks and Recreation
Co
Immediate need is to provide adequate tennis facilities to ac-
commodate the above stated uses. The estimated cost of repairing
the existing court surface to meet the immediate need is $17,000.
1. Remove existing asphalt surface to the stone base.
2. Repave the three (3) courts with asphalt (no coloration
of court surface).
3. Install new tennis posts.
4. Reline all courts.
The City forces will take down the existing fence around the courts
and reinstall the same fence after the completion of the paving
work by a private contractor.
Honorable Mayor and City Council
Page 2
Long-term need, as concurred by the City and School administrations,
is to develop a complex of six (6) new lighted tennis courts within
the Patrick Henry High School campus for joint use by the neighbor-
hood residents and the schools. The estimated cost of the six (6)
new lighted courts is $185,000.
II. Current Situation:
A. The Roanoke CitS School Administration has agreed to share the cost
of repairing the subject court surface on a 50-50 basis:
1. City of Roanoke (50%)
2. Roanoke City Schools (50%)
Total estimated project cost
$ 8,500
8,500
$17,000
This and the new playground near the Westside Park/School are
examples of the growing partnership between the City and the
School administrations for the joint development of the common
recreation facilities needs.
B. Funding for the project is available from:
1. City's share (Account No. 001-050-4340-2038) $ 8,500
2. School's share (Account No. 001-060-6006-6085-0334) 8,500
Total $17,000
Bids for the repair of the subject tennis court surface will be
opened during the June 22, 1987 Council meeting.
III. Issues:
A. Need
B. Funding
C. Timing
IV. Alternatives:
Ao
Authorize transfer of $17,000 into a new capital account to
facilitate the repair of the Shrine Hill Park Tennis Court
surface.
Need to provide adequate tennis facilities for projected
uses in the immediate future (0 - 5 years) would be ad-
dressed. The long-term need for new six (6) lighted tennis
courts would be considered during the future phases of the
Parks Plan Implementation Program along with other park im-
provement needs of the City.
Honorable Mayor and City Council
Page 3
2. Fundin9 for the project would come from:
a. City's share (Acct. No. 001-050-4340-2038) $ 8,500
b. School's share (Acct. No. 001-060-6006-6085-0334) 8,500
Total $17,000
Timing for the transfer of the subject funds from the current
year's operating budget to a capital account is critical to
insure availability of funds for this project after the end
of the current fiscal year on June 30, 1987.
B. Do not authorize transfer of $17,000 to facilitate the repair of
the Shrine Hill Park Tennis Courts.
Need to open these popular tennis courts to public and
City school programs would not be met. The residents
and school children will be forced to go outside their
neighborhood to play tennis.
2. Fundin9 would not be an issue.
Timing relative to some action to meet at least the im-
mediate need for tennis facilities in the subject neigh-
borhood would remain critical.
V. Recommendation:
Council concur with Alternative "A" and authorize the transfer of $17,000
from followipg sources into a capital account to be established by~
Director of Finance for the Shrine Hill Park Tennis Court Renovation
Project:
City of Roanoke Account No. 001-050-4340-2038 $ 8,500
Roanoke City School Account No. 001-060-6006-6085-0334 8,500

Fourth Quarter Personnel Lapse
City Council
The 1987 fiscal year General Fund budget includes
$650,000 of anticipated lapse of salary and wages. The majority
of changes on the attached budget ordinance will reduce
departmental salary budgets and decrease the budgeted lapse
account by the same amount.
The total salary lapse remaining will be as follows:
Original budgeted amount
First quarter lapse realized
Second quarter lapse realized
Third quarter lapse realized
Fourth quarter lapse realized
Total Unrealized

In addition to the $650,000 budgeted amount, an
additional $150,000 of lapse has been identified. This is being
transferred to a non-departmental account to fund the payroll
expense accrual at the end of fiscal year 1987. The payroll
expense accrual currently recorded will be increased by
approximately $150,000 because time worked for June 30, due to
standard pay period cutoff, is not payable until July of fiscal

Transfer of Appropriations for Fringe Benefits
The
Service Fund budgets
gory for payment
wages and medical
are budgeted in
fiscal year 1986-87 General Fund and Internal
included funds in the non-departmental cate-
of termination leave and workman's compensation
expenses. These three types of fringe benefits
the non-departmental category because annual
charges to each department are difficult to accurately project.
The actual costs are charged to the applicable department in an-
ticipation of periodic budget transfers to cover these costs. In
addition some transfers between departments are needed to redis-
tribute funds for hospitalization insurance and retirement.
The attached budget ordinance transfers funds from the
· non-departmental category to applicable departmental budgets and
redistributes funds between departments to cover actual costs. A
summary of the total transfers is as follows:
Workman's Compensation Wages
Workman's Compensation Medical
Termination Leave Pay
Hospitalization Insurance

Members of City Council:
SUBJECt: REC~ENDATIONS OF CItIZeNS' SERVICES C(~4HITTEE FOR
I~IrNDING OF qUALIFIED AGENCIES
I. BACKGROUND
Au
The Citizens' Services Committee budget was established by
City Council, Ordinance #28632 by which the General Fund
Budget for FY 87-88 was adopted on May 11, 1987.
Public notice of the opportunity for agencies to file applications
to the committee for City funds was published in local newspapers
on February 15, 19, 22, and 26, 1987 with an application deadline
of March 13, 1986.
C. Thirty requests in the total amount of $653,864 were received
from various agencies.
Do
Individual study of each application was made by committee members,
and public hearings were held April 8 and 10, 1987 to consider
the requests and hear applicants.
go
A~encies were notified of tentative allocation recommendations
and advised they could appeal the committee's tentative
recommendations.
II. CURRENT SITUATION
A°
The budget for FY 87-88 approved by City Council for the Citizens'
Services Committee provides for level funding in the amount of
$360,055.
In 1981 members of the Citizens' Services Committee adopted a
plan by which performance audits were made of each agency receiving
funds through the committee. These audits are used to evaluate
the effectiveness and efficiency of funded programs.
Citizens' Services Committee is again requesting that funds in
the amount of $7,500 be transferred to the Director of Human Resources
budget upon approval of City Council to cover monitoring expenses.
Performance audits will again be made by the Council of
Community Services in conjunction with the City's Directorate
of Human Resources.
2. Performance audits were adopted to insure City funds are being
used for the purpose for which they are requested and to
further assure that citizens of the City are benefiting
from their use.
3. The committee was pleased with the contents and accuracy of
the audits performed during the past year.
D. Agencies applying for funds through the Citizens' Services Committee
are asked to submit a budget by objective and activity.
1. A~ency plan of objectives and activities to be accomplished
with City funding.
2. Total agency budget and amount of funds generated to the
agency by City funding.
E. The attached schedule shows the amount of funds recommended for
Go
allocation to the various agencies.
1. Most agencies are funded at much less than their request.
2o
Recommended amounts of funding reflect the best judgment
of the co,m~ittee in serving the citizens of the City of
Roanoke through these programs.
Citizens' Services Committee has withheld an amount of $8,000 from
its total recommended allocations and is requesting City Council
to again appropriate this amount to the Roanoke City Health
Department to continue operation of the program, "Especially For
You", concerning family planning/sex education as an in-school
curriculum of the Home Economics Department.
Committee deliberations in detail are contained in minutes of the
meetings which are filed with the City Clerk.
Appeals of committee recommendations as provided by Council
policy were received after proper notification to each agency of
their tentative recommended allocation.
Three appeals were filed--the West End Community Center, the Free
Clinic of the Roanoke Valley, and the Harrison Heritage and Cultural
Center. These appeals were heard on May 20, 1987.
The West End Community Center requested an appeal for funding
of their program to provide after school and summer activities
(which includes a hot lunch) for "latch key" children in the
Southwest inner city area between 5th and 21st Streets. The
committee voted a tentative allocation of $1,000 designated
for the meal program.
3
3o
The Free Clinic of Roanoke Valley requested an appeal for
reconsideration of funds because of the increased number
of patients and need for prescription drugs. The committee
by motion voted an additional $1,000 to their tentative
allocation.
The Harrison Heritage and Cultural Center requested an
appeal for reconsideration of funds to help offset operational
expenses of the center. The committee by motion voted an
additional $1,950 to their tentative allocation.
J. The Association for Retarded Citizens/CHD Industries and Tinker
Mountain Industries were again funded jointly since both perform
similar services.
Members of the Citizens' Services Committee continue to feel
the Association for Retarded Citizens should be an advocate
for Roanoke City residents in both agencies and funding was
recommended in the amount of $44,600 to the Association for
Retarded Citizens to be shared with Tinker Mountain Industries.
2o
The formula used in the past which is based on the number of
City residents served and is acceptable to the Citizens'
Services Committee for sharing the funds will be used.
K. The Citizens' Services Committee allocated $1,000 for the Inner
City Athletic Association designated through the Community Organization
for Research and Development (CORD) because of the shared purpose
of providing recreational sports programs for children of low-
income families.
L. The Citizens' Services Committee recommended funding of $100,000
for the rescue squads (Hunton Life Saving, Roanoke Life Saving,
and Williamson Road Life Saving) through the budget of Emergency
Services due to the possible merger of the rescue squads and to
provide more coordination in the use of the funds.
The Citizens' Services Cormmittee recommended funding of $22,200
designated for RADAR (Unified Human Service Transportation Systems)
through the Valley Metro budget in order that they may receive credit
for providing transportation for the handicapped.
N. The committee is unable to set aside funds for emergencies in the
coming year.
III. RECOMMENDATIONS
mo
City Council concur in the funding of the agencies and in the amounts
recommended by the Citizens' Services Committee as shown on the
attached schedule.
City Council authorize the Chairman of the Citizens' Services Committee
and the Director of Finance to not release funds to any agency
until objectives, activities, and other reasonable requests of the
evaluation team are submitted and accepted.

Members of Roanoke City Council,
C/O City Clerk,
Room 456, Municipal Building,
Roanoke, Virginia 24011
Dear Council Members:
We have been notified that there will be a public
hearing on June 8, 1987 at 7:30 P. M. concerning the re-
zoning of a tract of land on the north side of Shenandoah
Avenue, N. W. between Old Stevens Rd. and Westside Blvd.
from RS-2 to C-2. We regret very much that we will not
be able to attend this meeting due to a prior commitment,
but would, in this way, like to express our feelings on this
rezoning, and respectfully ask that you consider our views.
We live at 3802 Rolling Hill Ave. N. W. which is directly
adjacent to the tract of land which is in question, and we
are much in favor of this rezoning. We appeared before the
Zoning Board and ask that this land be rezoned to allow the
construction of the food store and other small shops. This
is valuable land which has been idle for a long time, and
will not stay idle forever. We much prefer to have a shopping
area here, than low rent housing or other things which might
be objectionable and be a menace to the neighborhood. We feel
this neighborhood shopping center is needed in this area, and
will be an asset to it. Therefore, we respectfully ask that
you vote to rezone this property from RS-2 to C-2.
Thank you for your consideration.
Very truly,
Clyde G. Roland

Roanoke City Planning Commission
June 8, 1987
The Honorable Noel C. Taylor, Mayor
and Members of City Council
Roanoke, Virginia
Dear Members of Council:
SubJect:
Request from CBL Management, Inc., that a certain tract
of land located on the north side of Shenandoah Avenue,
N.W., between Old Stevens Road, N.W. and Westside
Boulevard, N.W., and designated as Official Tax No.
2732201 be rezoned from RS-2, Single Family Residential
District to C-2, General Commercial District.
I. Back~round:
mJ
Purpose of rezoning request is to construct a small,
neighborhood shopping center. A preliminary development plan
has been submitted and is attached for your review.
Petition to rezone was filed on 4/15/87. Petition was
unconditional.
Staff met with petitioner on 4/23/87 and requested additional
information on preliminary grading, more specific information
on flood plain location, and residential buffering.
Consideration also was to be given to zoning conditions which
addressed use of the property.
Amended petition to rezone was filed on 4/28/87. Revised
development plan was submitted. Proffered conditions are:
The property will be used only for a neighborhood
shopping center consisting of a supermarket, drug store
and retail shops.
If construction of a neighborhood shopping center on the
property has not commenced within five (5) years from the
date of adoption of the ordinance rezoning the tract, the
zoning classification will revert to RS-2, Single Family
Residential District, or the equivalent classification
then in effect.
I~om 355 Municipal Building 215 Church Avenue, 5.W. Roanoke, Virginia 24011 (703) 981-2344
II. Current Situation:
Public hearing was held on May 6. Planning staff recommended
in favor of the request.
Second amended petition was submitted on May 12 and includes
the following conditions:
The property will be used only for a neighborhood
shopping center including a supermarket and retail shops
but excluding a fast food restaurant or gasoline service
station.
If construction of a neighborhood shopping center on the
property has not commenced within five (5) years from the
date of adoption of the ordinance rezoning the tract, the
zoning classification will revert to RS-2, Residential
Single Family District, or the equivalent classification
then in effect.
The row of existing large pine trees along Old Stevens
Road and the eastern portion of the north boundary line
of the property will remain undisturbed except those from
the proposed entrance/exit on Old Stevens Road to
Shenandoah Avenue.
Petitioner will erect a six-foot high chain link fence
with slats along the entire north boundary line of the
property and will in addition plant a staggered row of
evergreen trees on ten-foot centers within the ten-foot
buffer area along the north boundary line.
III. Issues:
Zoning is presently RS-2. Zoning on this side of Shenandoah
Avenue is residential, RS-2 to the east, and RG-1 to the west.
Directly across the street, zoning is C-2 and conditional LM
(rezoned in 1986 for small mini-warehouse project).
Land use of property is vacant. Adjacent properties are
single-family homes. Property on the other side of Old
Stevens Road is also vacant. Property across Shenandoah
Avenue has been developed for small commercial uses
(convenience store and vacant building). Future development
is proposed for 12,000 square feet of mini-warehouses (zoning
reverts back to C-2 in October, 1987 if not constructed).
Two residents spoke in opposition to the shopping center.
Main concerns related to traffic in the residential
neighborhood, commercial encroachment into the area, and the
large number of shopping malls already in the City.
One resident, and several Commissioners, discussed the need to
make the project compatible with the neighborhood. Suggested
ideas include increased buffering on the north side; fencing
the retention pond to protect children; and providing a
pedestrian walkway along Shenandoah Avenue and Westside
Boulevard. The petitioner agreed to investigate these ideas
and also to reconsider the appearance of the side of the
shopping center which faces Westside Boulevard.
Utilities for water and sewer are available. Storm water
management would have to be handled on site. A drainage ditch
along Shenandoah Avenue and pipe under Westside Boulevard
currently provide drainage from Shenandoah Avenue and the area
to Peters Creek. Drainage problems with the ditch and pipe
culvert presently exist. The 100-year flood plain for Peters
Creek is located along the western and southern edges of the
property. No building is proposed within the flood plain.
Traffic on Shenandoah Avenue averages 12,400 vehicles per day
and is operating at an acceptable level of service. The 1995
Transportation Plan for the Roanoke Valley indicates potential
widening of Shenandoah Avenue to a four-lane highway (90 foot
right-of-way). The proposed widening is in the "ultimate
stage" for consideration and is not envisioned to be
undertaken within the next 20 years. Peters Creek Road
Extension may result in some limited improvements to
Shenandoah Avenue in the future. Old Stevens Road serves the
Wilmont Farms subdivision and is frequently used for through
traffic from Salem Turnpike to Shenandoah Avenue.
Neighborhood on this side of Shenandoah Avenue is single-
family residential. There is no established neighborhood
organization in the community. The petitioners have indicated
they will be contacting adjacent residents to discuss the
project.
F. Comprehensive Plan recommends that:
Development of small neighborhood shoppin~ areas to serve
the needs of area residents should be encouraged.
Priority should be given to areas where needed comm~ercial
services are not provided currently.
Regulations should ensure that neighborhood commercial
uses are in keeping with the neighborhood's character.
Chan~es in land use in or near residential areas should
be carefully evaluated and designed to conserve and
enhance neighborhood quality.
IV. Alternatives:
A. Approve the rezoning request.
Be
Zonin~ becomes conditional C-2. Proffered conditions
restrict development of the property to a neighborhood
commercial shopping center. Should construction of the
center not be undertaken within five years, the zoning
will revert to RS-2. Zonin~ is consistent with other
zoning patterns on Shenandoah Avenue.
Land use becomes commercial. Adjacent residential
properties would be buffered by grade separations,
required screening (10 foot minimum landscaped or fenced
area) and existing vegetation where it could be
preserved. Land use is consistent with commercial uses
along Shenandoah Avenue.
Petitioner has responded to requests by residents to
preserve existing trees and provide additional buffering
(See proffered conditions). Petitioner has also agreed
to work with City staff to address additional site design
issues.
Utilities for water and sewer are accessible. Storm
water management is proposed on site using a detention
area adjacent to Wests,de Boulevard. There would be n_~o
buildings constructed within the 100-year flood plain.
Drainage improvements along Shenandoah Avenue could be
undertaken as part of the project, as a deceleration lane
on Shenandoah Avenue would be required to accommodate
traffic entering the center.
Traffic to and from the development is estimated to be
about 5,000 vehicles per day. Of this 5,000,
approximately 3,750 new vehicle trips per day would be
generated since some of the traffic utilizing the center
would already be existing. It is estimated that 75
percent of the traffic to and from the center will use
Shenandoah Avenue (3,750) and that 25 percent will use
Old Stevens Road (1,250). Of the traffic using Old
Stevens Road, it is estimated that 640 vehicles would be
new, non-neighborhood traffic using Old Stevens Road as
a short cut from Salem Turnpike. Both Shenandoah Avenue
and Old Stevens Road can accommodate the increased
traffic. Once Peters Creek Road has been extended (early
1990s), traffic would probably use the new road for
access.
Neighborhood would be enhanced by new shopping
opportunities. Investment in this portion of Shenandoah
Avenue would be beneficial to the comm~unity. Residences
on Rolling Hill Avenue can be screened and buffered
through landscaping and grade separation.
Comprehensive Plan is followed. Neighborhood shopping
center is needed. The proposed development would be
compatible with the neighborhood and would enhance
community development.
B. Deny the rezoning request.
1. Zonin~ remains RS-2.
2. Land use restricted to residential.
3. Utilities are not an issue.
4. Traffic not affected.
5. Neighborhood not affected.
6. Comprehensive Plan could be followed.
V. Recommendation:
By a vote of 6-0 (Mr. Waldvogel absent), the Planning Commission
recommended approval of the rezoning request. The proposed
development of a neighborhood shopping area is consistent with
planning goals for Shenandoah Avenue, especially with regard to
discouraging continued strip development and considering the future
extension of Peters Creek Road. The development can be an asset to
the neighborhood and be beneficial to continued investment and
redevelopment in the area.

AMENDED
PETITION FOR
REZONING
TO: The Honorable Mayor and Members of the Council of the City
of Roanoke
(1) The petitioner, CBL Management, Inc., has contracted

from the date of adoption of the ordinance rezoning the tract,
the zoning classification will revert to RS-2, Single-Family
Residential District, or the equivalent classification then in
effect.
(c) The row of existing large pine trees along Old
Stevens Road and the eastern portion of the north boundary line
of the property will remain undisturbed, except those from the

RE:
Mayor Taylor and Honorable Members of Roanoke
City Council
Moore's Rezoning
Dear Mayor Taylor, Mrs. Bowles & Gentlemen:
Please accept this letter as my enthusiastic endorsement
and support of the requested rezoning by Moore's of the
Franklin Road property.
As you know, I have over 36 years' experience with the
City of Roanoke, all of which had to do with taxes and other
revenues of the City. In my opinion, having Moore's relocate
to the Franklin Road site is an excellent opportunity for the
City to convert a blighted project to a source of much needed
revenue to the City. I have had the good fortune of dealing
with the people at Moore's for some years now. I regard them
to be an excellent organization, and I am confident that their
development of the property will be in keeping with the
standards demanded.
I am told that the apartments presently on the property
have been unoccupied for a period of approximately eight years.
In addition to being an eyesore, they have also been a burden
to the police, fire, building and health departments to the
City. I am reliably advised that the chances of the property
being rehabilitated as an apartment project is economically
impossible.
I believe that the City should seize the economic
opportunity offered to them so as to continue the location of
this business in the City of Roanoke. We must encourage
reliable and responsible businesses to locate, and more
importantly, continue to be located within the City.
June 8, 1987
Page 2
In my opinion, there are many uses that can be made of the
property under its present zoning which would be more
objectionable and have a more severe impact on the
neighborhood.
I appreciate your consideration and sincerely hope that
you will see the merit of a favorable vote on Moore's petition.
Yours very truly,

Re: Moore's Rezoninq
Dear Ms. Parker:
As you know, I represent Grossman's Inc., trading as
Moore's, with regard to its request to rezone certain property
located on Franklin Road in the City of Roanoke. This matter
is scheduled for a public hearing before City Council this
evening.
I would appreciate very much if you would notify Mayor
Taylor that we would like to make our presentation in the
following order:
Ross C. Hart, representing Village Square, a Virginia
General Partnership, the present owner of the
property which is the subject of the Petition, would
like to address Council.
I would next address Council on behalf of Grossman's
Inc., trading as Moore's.
We would expect to have neighboring property owners
address Council in support of the Petition.
And lastly, I would like to reserve an opportunity
for a short rebuttal following any presentation made
by the opposition.
Mary F. Parker,

City Clerk
I thought it would be helpful for Mayor Taylor to know in
advance how we wish to proceed. Should he want us to proceed
differently, we will be happy to revise the presentation in
accordance with his request.
Richard Burrow has assisted Moore's with respect to site
access and traffic. As you know, he has submitted a Report
which is part of the rezoning file. We do not expect Richard
to make a formal presentation at the public hearing, but we did
want the Mayor and members of Council to know that he will be
in attendance and will be available for such questions as they
might have.
There also is one additional item which we would request
by your office. We have a large model of the proposed project.
At the Planning Commission presentation, we set the model on
the desk used at Council meetings by the City Attorney &
Finance Officer. Since that will be unavailable at the public
hearing before Council, we would request a table be provided
for the model. I appreciate very much your help with this
request.
Thank you for your helpfulness.
Yours very truly,
· chael K. Smeltzer

Dear Members of Council:
Subject:
Request from Grossman's Inc., trading as Moore's,
represented by Michael K. Smeltzer, Attorney, that a
certain tract of land containing 7.4163 acres, more or
less, located at the intersection of Franklin Road, S.W.,
and Roberts Road, S.W., and designated as Official Tax
No. 1280602, be rezoned from C-i, Office and
Institutional District, to LM, Light Manufacturing
District, such rezoning to be subject to certain
conditions proffered by the petitioner.
I. Background:
Purpose of the rezoning is to permit construction of a Moore's
building supplies outlet. Proposed operation would replace
Moore's Reserve Avenue outlet.
B. Petition contains the following conditions:
The property as rezoned will be used only for the purpose
of operating a facility for retail sales of building
materials to the public and to contractors, and as a
lumber yard, lumber or building material store, or
department for the sale or display of lumber, building
materials, hardware or paint, nursery products, or any of
them.
The property will be developed in accordance with the
site plan submitted herewith, except for such
modifications as may be required by the City of Roanoke
as a result of the site plan review processs. The site
plan submitted herewith is made by T. P. Parker and Son,
Engineers and Surveyors, Ltd., dated May 14, 1987.
Room 355 Municipal Building 215 Church Avenue, S.W. r~anoke, Virginia 24011 (703) 98t-2344
C. Plannin~ staff recommended in favor of the requested rezonin~
provided the following changes were made to the proposed site
plan:
1. Access to Roberts Road should be eliminated.
2. Ail outdoor storage should be located east of the
building, out of sight of the residents (zoning ordinance
requires that outside storage not be located closer to
the street than the main building).
3. Screening should be provided between the outdoor storage
area and the adjoining businesses to minimize visual
impact, dust and debris.
4. Building colors should be muted.
5. Buffering between Roberts Road and the business should be
increased. Possible solutions include creating a wider
buffer and raising the elevation and density of the
screen (possibly using a berm).
6. Franklin Road access should be widened.
D. Petitioner has not addressed all of the concerns listed in C.
above.
E. Petitioner has met with residents to discuss the proposed
rezoning.
F. Public hearin~ was held on May 6 and was attended by
approximately 10 neighborhood residents. The majority of the
residents present at the hearing were opposed to the rezoning.
II. Issues:
A. Land use.
B. Zoning.
C. Traffic.
D. Utilities.
E. Neighborhood.
F. Comprehensive Plan.
III. Alternativas:
A. City Council deny the requested rezoning.
1. Land use is unchanged. Vacant, condemned multi-family
apartments remain. Apartments are a detriment to the
neighborhood both visually and from the point of view of
safety.
me
4.
5.
6.
Cit~
1.
Zoning remains C-1. The existing C-1 district permits
multi-family apartments and office/institutional
functions. Existing C-1 district would permit a higher
intensity commercial use of the property (in terms of
traffic, utility demand and visual impact) than is being
proposed by the petitioner.
Traffic would not be an issue.
Utilities would be unchanged.
Neighborhood would be unchanged.
Comprehensive Plan would be followed insofar as large
scale commercial development is prevented from
encroaching into the neighborhood and the neighborhood
character is protected. The Comprehensive Plan sets out
the following policies:
Neighborhood character and environmental quality
should be protected. 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.
Priority should be given to maintenance and
rehabilitation of sound usable structure rather than
demolition. Traditional and historical features
should be preserved to the extent practical.
Development of new or existing commercial and
industrial areas in the City should be carefully
planned and designed to promote quality development
and good land use.
Con~nercial, industrial and residential growth and
development should be encouraged through public and
private actions to ensure a strong and diversified
economic base and employment opportunities for all
of Roanoke's citizens.
Council approve the requested rezoning.
Land use becomes industrial. The proposed building
supplies outlet, although a retail operation, is by
virtue of its physical size and type of operation, an
industrial use.
Zoning becomes LM. Proffered conditions limit the site
to the proposed use. The area to the east of the site is
zoned HM and is occupied by Cycle Systems. The Franklin
Road corridor in the immediate area is predominantly
commercial.
Traffic is a major concern among neighborhood residents.
Although the traffic expected to be generated by the use
is less than that generated by many uses permitted under
present zoning, the location of a driveway on Roberts
Road may result in increased traffic through the
neighborhood, congestion at the Roberts/Franklin Road
intersection, and increased noise in the neighborhood.
Planning staff felt the driveway on Roberts Road was
unnecessary since it no longer provided access to the
loading dock.
Utilities are a factor which can be addressed at the
development plan review stage. Storm water drainage is a
concern to businesses below the site. The Franklin Road
area experiences flooding problems regularly. However,
the City's "zero increase in the rate of runoff" policy
would apply to the project.
The existing water supply is sufficient for domestic
needs of the proposed use. Fire flow requirements may
necessitate the petitioner connecting to a "booster"
water system at the intersection of Avenham Avenue and
Franklin Road.
e
Neighborhood would be detrimentally impacted by the
proposed rezoning. The physical size and appearance of
the retail building is out of character with the
residential and commercial development around the site.
Both residents and Commission members expressed serious
concern over the location and appearance of the outdoor
storage areas. Dust, litter and noise associated with
outdoor storage were also identified as concerns. The
proposed development would encroach further into the
residential neighborhood than existing businesses thereby
Jeopardizing the integrity of the neighborhood which to
date shows no sign of deterioration.
Comprehensive Plan would not be followed. Objectives and
policies of the Plan as set out in III.A.6. clearly
emphasizes compatibility between commercial and
residential development and the protection of our
residential neighborhoods. The proposed retail use is
considered by the Commission to be too large and too
close to the neighborhood. Proposed buffering and site
layout are considered inadequate to sufficiently protect
the neighborhood.
IV. Recommendation:
By a vote of 5-1-1 (Mr. Jones abstaining and Mr. Price voting for
approval), the Planning Commission denied the requested rezoning.
In discussing the motion, the Commission considered the
neighborhood to be an extremely well maintaine~ high quality
residential area which would merit protection. The scale of this
proposed operation is considered too large to be permitted adjacent
to a residential neighborhood without extreme action to mitigate
objectionable features.

SITE ACCESS
MOORE'S BUILDING SUPPLIES
SUMMARY
The proposed Moore's Building Supplies rezoning will attract
500 vehicles per day. The 1,000 trip ends per day produced by
these 500 vehicles can be easily accommodated by Franklin Road
and Roberts Road without altering the current level-of-service or
safety standards provided to existing traffic on either road.
In fact, the total of new trips on Roberts Road will about 10%
less by virtue of the rezoning than would travel on Roberts
Road should the existing 82 apartment units begin use again.
Moore's Building Supplies has been a solid, cooperative corpo-
rate citizen in the City of Roanoke for over 25 years. The
proposals contained in this rezoning show a continuing interest
to be a good neighbor for those being most directly impacted.
Approval of LM rezoning request for the 7.42 acre site would
not produce a negative traffic impact on surrounding roadway
facilities.
II.
BACKGROUND
Moore's Building Supplies is seeking a light manufacturing (LM)
rezoning for 7.42 acres of land located on the northwest side
of Franklin Road at its intersection with Roberts Road, S.W.
This change would allow for the construction of a new store
containing a total building area of 50,400 square feet with 209
parking spaces, all contained within the 323,215 square feet of
the site.
This report was prepared to review the traffic conditions to be
generated by the proposed rezoning, compare the projected site
development conditions to existing site conditions, and antici-
pate the impact the new store may have on the surrounding
street network.
The prlneipal aeeess roads serving the 7.42 acre site are
Franklin Road (Business Route 220) to the east and Roberts Road
to the south. The "Development Plan" limits all access to
these two roads with one entrance/exit area anticipated on each
of these access points. Franklin Road is an 80 feet wide arter-
ial roadway containing four thru-traffic lanes and an addi-
tional double left-turn middle lane. Roberts Road is a 50 feet
wide street with an entrance to the new site proposed to be
located about 250 feet northwest of Franklin Road.
III. CURRENT TRAFFIC CONDITIONS
Franklin Road is a primary arterial route designated Business
Route 220. The latest traffic counts were taken by the Virginia
Department of Highways and Transportation approximately one
year ago and demonstrated a non-directional average daily traf-
fic volume of 28,930 vehicles. No traffic counts exist for
Roberts Road and no turning movement counts exist for the
intersection of Roberts Road and Franklin Road.
The current land use for the 7.42 acre site is residential
apartments units. Although these apartments are vacant at this
time, there are 82 existing units within the complex with two
entrances on Roberts Road and one entrance on Franklin Road.
Additionally, there have been plans developed for the re-
furbishing of the apartment complex which would add another 62
units, thereby yielding a total of 144 residential apartment
units.
According to the "Trip Generation Informational Report" pre-
pared by the Institute of Transportation Engineers, each resi-
dential apartment unit would produce about 6.1 vehicle trip
ends on the average day and 6.5 trip ends during the peak day.
These statistics would yield the following total trips for the
existing land use:
Daily Trips
Generated
82 units
Av~. Peak
500 533
144 units
Av~. Peak
878 936
It should be stressed that there are also other permitted uses
under the existing zoning for the site that would produce daily
traffic volumes that are at least twice the residential apart-
ment volumes shown above.
IV. PROPOSED TRAFFIC CONDITIONS
The Moore's Building Supplies type of store is a somewhat spe-
cialized retail center with building materials. According to
the "Trip Generation Informational Report" prepared by the
Institute of Transportation Engineers, this type of land use
would normally generate 1,500 trip ends (750 vehicles) in an
average daily with a variance of 20%.
Traffic projections are aided in this situation because Moore's
executives maintain records on the number of vehicles bring
customers, employees, or deliveries to each of their stores
each day. This type of historical traffic data makes project-
ing future traffic uses at the new proposed location on
Franklin Road a much more accurate procedure than using the
"Trip Generation Information Report."
The existing Moore's store on Reserve Avenue on an average day
generates 333 total vehicles. The proposed location on
Franklin Road reasonably anticipates doing about 50% more
business then the Reserve Avenue location; therefore, about
50% more total vehicles, or 500 total vehicles, can be pro-
jected for the rezoning site. The following table lists the
breakdown of the projected vehicles:

The forecasted number of vehicles is 500 per day. For compari-
son purposes, the 500 vehicles equate to 1,000 trips by count-
ing each vehicle's entrance and exit as a separate trip end,
which the "Trip Generation Information Report" does. Comparing
the existing land use under the current zoning to the projected
land use proposed by the rezoning, the difference in traffic
generated by the site is only 61 vehicles or 122 trip ends per
day.
The surrounding street networks of Franklin Road and Roberts
Road can definitely accommodate the total of 500 additional
vehicles per day. In fact, Franklin Road in past years has
carried more traffic than it does today. There is simply no
question that both Franklin Road and Roberts Road have the
additional capacity necessary to accommodate the traffic to be
generated by the proposed rezoning at the same level-of-service
that these public roads operate within today.
The entrances proposed for the project are located to cause the
least interference possible with existing Roberts Road traffic.
Most traffic entering the proposed site will use the Franklin
Road entrance. The Franklin Road entrance will be signed as
the primary entrance area for all vehicles and all delivery
trucks entering the site will be required to use that entrance
by the Moore's management. Seventy (70%) percent of the
traffic, or 700 trips per day, will use the Franklin Road
entrance/exit area.
The one Roberts Road exit is located within 250 feet of
Franklin Road. Thirty (30%) percent of the site traffic or 300
trips per day will utilize the Roberts Road entrance/exit area.
Eighty-three (83%) percent of these trips (about 250 trips)
will be exiting traffic traveling on Roberts Road only in the
east bound direction from the exit toward Franklin Road. The
diagram on the next page shows the forecasted distribution of
these trips.

F' RAI~ i~1... I i~
It should be noted that the 300 trips a day projected to use
Roberts Road by the Moore's rezoning is less then would use
Roberts Road under the current zoning. The apartment land use
had two entrance/exit areas on Roberts Road for distributing
about two-thirds of the apartment-related traffic. The 82
apartment units produced 500 trips per day, two-thirds of
which, or 335 trips, used Roberts Road and one-third used
Franklin Road. The Moore's rszonlng, if approved, is projected
to produce only about 300 trips per day on Roberts Road.
This is a 10% reduction in total trips traveling on Roberts
Road from the 7.42 acre site if rezoned to accommodate Moore's
when compared to the traffic generated by the 82 apartment
units, if they were in use today.
It should be stressed that for exiting traffic both Roberts
Road and Franklin Road maneuvering areas are needed. The pro-
posed Franklin Road exit and Roberts Road are located 150 feet
apart. The 50 yard separation will allow exiting traffic at
both locations to take full advantage of the gaps in traffic
flows on Franklin Road. The two exiting areas will allow twice
as many vehicles to maneuver into the Franklin Road traffic
stream at the same time. The maneuving of twice as many
vehicles at the same time should reduce over all delays, reduce
drive irritation, and generally make the traffic flows safer
for all traffic along this section of Franklin Road.
V. .ADDITIONAL SITE-RELATED TRAFFIC OBSERVATIONS:
In reviewing the "development plan" for the proposed rezoning,
several general traffic-related observations come to mind.
The parking to be provide by Moore's exceeds the required
parking permitted by City ordinances and is located on the east
side of the building. This should make customer parking very
convenient and reduce vehicular maneuvering on site, thereby
potentially reducing parking confusion and noise levels, as
well as orienting them away from the existing residential
community.
Employee parking is provided by the spaces in the southwest
section of the "development plan" nearest the residential
community. This will reduce considerably the amount of
vehicular "turn-over" and maneuvering in these spaces closest to
the residential community. Once again, this should reduce the
noise levels nearest the existing homes.
The loading docks and outdoor shed areas most associated with
the building materials are both located on the north side of
the building, furthest away from the residential housing and
closest to other commercial and industrial neighbors. The
location for these two facilities on the north side of the site
should make most of the on-site maneuvering and noise related to
building materials almost non-existent for the residential
community.
Lastly, the overall site traffic operational characteristics
appear to be well conceived. Site interrelationships of
customer, employee, and delivery maneuvering has been layed-out
well and should function at a high level-of-service for both
Moore's and the surrounding street system.

BE IT ORDAINED by the Council of the City of Roanoke that the
City Manager and City Clerk be and they are hereby authorized to
execute and to seal and attest, respectively, a lease agreement
with Orvis Roanoke, Inc., providing for a five year lease, at the
rate of $375.00 per month, plus one percent (1%) of the first
$500,000 in gross revenue from sales made from the leased prem-
ises each year, three percent (3%) of the gross revenue of

ATTEST:
City Clerk.
Roanoke, Virginia
June 8, 1987
The Honorable Noel C. Taylor, Mayor
and Members of City Council
Roanoke, Virginia
Dear Members of Council:
Subject: Market Square Garage Lease with Orris Roanoke, Inc.
Background:
Market Square Garage was completed in 1984. The facility was
designed to include approximately 3,000 square feet of retail
space.
Retail space is shell space with no covered floors, ceilings,
walls, electrical wiring, HVAC, etc. The unfinished nature of
the space has made it extremely difficult to lease.
Original discussions with Orvis Inc., before Roanoke was even
selected as the location for its fulfillment center included a
desire on the part of the City to make retail space available
to Orvis should they choose Roanoke.
DJ
Terms of a lease agreement with 0rvis Roanoke, Inc., for a
major retail store have been negotiated. Major items in the
proposed lease agreement include:
Rent - $4,500 per year + 1% of the first $500,000 in
gross revenue from sales from the leased premises, 3% of
the gross revenue between $500,000 and $1 million, and 4%
of the gross revenue over $1 million.
Improvements - The City will bid the full package of
required basic improvements for the space which would
include such things as plumbing, electrical, lighting,
mechanical, heating and air conditioning systems,
replacement of exterior windows, wall coverings,
flooring, showcase windows (if approved by Western
Virginia Foundation for Arts and Sciences), etc. Orvis
Roanoke, Inc., will reimburse the City for any cost over
$50,000 to be secured by a letter of credit. Orvis
Roanoke, Inc., will be allowed a rent credit for the
first $25,000 spent by Orvis Roanoke, Inc., for basic
improvements above the City's $50,000.
3. Lease Term - Five years.
Eminent Domain - City agrees not to use its power of
eminent domain to take all or any portion of the leased
premises.
.Complete Lease - Attached is a draft of the complete
lease.
Space - Three thousand (3,000) square feet of retail
space plus storage area and two parking permits at market
rate.
II. Issues:
A. Cost.
B. Timin$.
C. Economic development.
III. Alternatives:
A. Authorize the City Manager to execute the attached lease.
Cost to the City would be $50,000. Funds have been
identified in account no. 008 056 9550 9003. This cost,
plus the money Orvis will be spending on the property,
will be used to make the basic permanent improvements to
the structure which will then be owned by the City even
after any lease with Orvie might expire. Specific
funding recommendations will be made at the time of
recommendation regarding the bid for the basic
improvements.
Timin~ is important in that Orvis Roanoke, Inc., would
like to be open for business by Labor Day.
Economic development in the City would be greatly
enhanced. Roanoke will have one of only six Orvis stores
in the country, including New York; Chicago; Manchester,
Vermont; Houston; and San Francisco. It will act as a
tremendous attraction for retail sales into the City.
Interest from other retailers to locate in the Market
area has occurred since it has been known that Orvis
might locate a store in that area.
Do not authorize the City Manager to execute the attached
lease.
Cost to the City would be a missed revenue as the shell
space would continue to be extremely difficult to lease.
2. Timing would not be an issue.
Economic Development opportunity for the City would be
missed.
IV. Recommendation:
It is recommended that City Council adopt alternative A,
authorizing the City Manager to execute a lease with Orvis Roanoke,
Inc., in substantially the form of the attached draft, subject to
approval as to form by the City Attorney.
Respectfully submitted,
W. Robert Herbert
City Manager

authorized agents to enter the Leased Premises for the put-
- 7 -

including protection against bodily injury or death liabi-
lity and property damage liability, providing no less than

be repaired or restored within one hundred twenty (120) days
from the date of the damage, Lessor shall repair the Leased
Premises and the Basic Improvements within the said period

in a normal manner while Lessor repairs the Leased Premises.

destroyed and cannot be repaired or restored within one
hundred twenty (120) days from the date of the damage,
either Lessor or Lessee may terminate this Lease by giving
written notice to the other within thirty (30) days after
the damage occurs, in which event this Lease shall termi-
nate, and rent shall abate in total from the date of such
damage or destruction. If neither party elects to terminate
this Lease, Lessor shall proceed with due diligence to
pair and restore the Leased Premises and the rent shall
abate in proportion to the extent Lessee is unable to con-
duct its business in a normal manner from the date of such
damage or destruction.

that leave the rest usable by Lessee for the purposes of the
business for which the Leased Premises are leased will not
terminate this Lease, unless Lessee at its option terminates
it by giving written notice of termination to the other
party. The effect of such condemnation, should such option
not be exercised, will be to terminate the Lease as to the
portion of the Leased Premises condemned and leave it in
effect as to the remainder of the Leased Premises, and the
rent and utilities and charges fee provided for herein shall
- 10 -
be adjusted accordingly. Compensation awarded as a result
of such condemnation shall be that of Lessor, except to the
extent that part of the award is allocated and specifically

estate, its trade fixtures or to relocation costs. Lessor
agrees not to use its power of eminent domain to take all
or any portion of the Leased Premises.

Dear Mayor Taylor:
On September 11, 1987 the Blue Ridge Parkway will reach an
historic milestone. After 52 years of construction and some
$124-million in costs, the scenic motor road will be completed.
In recognition of this achievement, a summer-long celebration
entitled "Dedication '87" is being planned by the Commonwealth
of Virginia, the State of North Carolina and the Blue Ridge
Parkway Association. Their common goal is to make the nation and
the world more aware and appreciative of the vast natural,
recreational and cultural resources to be found on the Parkway
and in the 29 counties through which it passes.
The highlight of the celebration will be dedication ceremonies
at Grandfather Mountain, location of the final segment of
Parkway construction. On September 11, this panoramic, 7.5-mile
section officially will be opened to the public.
To help us adequately observe this occasion, we solicit your
support for "Dedication '87" in the form of a resolution. As an
example you might wish to consider, we are enclosing a copy of
House Joint Resolution No. 365 enacted by the General Assembly
of Virginia in February, 1987.
Thank you for your interest in the Blue Ridge Parkway and its
activities. We will appreciate receiving the original or a copy
of any action you might take on this matter. If we can be of
assistance, please don't hesitate to contact us.
