Background: ao U. S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) requires the City to submit a Housing Assistance Plan (HAP) every three years as a requisite to receiving Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds. This HAP is a basis upon which HUD approves or disapproves assisted housing in the City, and against which HUD monitors the City's provi- sion of assisted housing. Amendment to HAP is required because of Roanoke Redevelopment and Housing Authority application for 71 additional units under HUD's Housing Voucher Program. (see letter attached) The City's Citizen Participation Plan requires an evening public hearing be held by City Council to receive citizen comments on the proposed amendments to the Housing Assistance Plan. D. A presentation of the Amendment to the Housing Assistance Plan will be made to City Council on May 11, 1987. II. Recommendation: It is recommended that City Council authorize a public hearing to be held on May 11, 1987, to hear public comments on the Housing Assistance Plan.

I commend the Authority's application to you and ask for your favorable consideration. We expect to submit no further comments to HUD concerning the application.

Background on this subject is: Letter from Robert W. Hooper, Executive Director, Downtown Roanoke, Incorporated, dated July 29, 1986 had requested the City to provide on-street parking on a limited basis along South Jefferson Street from Elm Avenue to Salem Avenue. This request was made by Downtown Roanoke, Inc. as the representative organization for the downtown business community and as an element of Design '85. On-street parking along Jefferson Street was implemented as of October 1, 1986, from 6:00 p.m. to 6:00 a.m. Mondays through Saturdays and all day every Sunday. Downtown Roanoke, Inc. strongly felt that this would aid businesses in that area which maintain or are contemplating evening hours. City Council was briefed on this matter at their meeting on August 25, 1986. It was also indicated that a follow-up report would be made to City Council concerning the 82 new parking spaces. A listing of the locations of those parking spaces is attached. II. Current situation of this subject is: Random surveys of parked vehicles were conducted after the signs were installed. Initially, use was extremely low as could be expected. However, by March, 1987, the average use of the 82 available spaces was up to approximately 25 percent. The blocks most heavily used are between Salem and Kirk Avenues as well as be- tween Bullitt and Elm Avenues (adjacent to the Roanoke City Library). Impact of this on-street parking upon City operations has also been reviewed. Refuse collection representatives indicated that there were no problems. Grounds Maintenance representatives (responsible for street cleaning) indicated there was some difficulty in sweeping entire street depending upon cars still parked on Jefferson Street before 6:00 a.m. Police Department has had no problems nor reports of any problems. Page 2 C. Downtown Roanoke~ Inc. has stated that they are extremely pleased with the new parking arrangements, and have received very favorable comments from Jefferson Street businesses regarding the parking. Additionally, they have requested that the City consider expanding this on-street parking plan to include all day Saturday, in response to requests they have received for this. They believe that per- mitting parking ali day Saturday will provide added benefit to retailers for Saturday shopping. III. Report is furnished to City Council for information only. No action is required. This trial program has demonstrated a need for on-street parking along this downtown artery and has met that need with little adverse impact. In response to Downtown Roanoke, Inc.'s request, the City will change the existing signs to allow parking all day Saturday. This will be implemented by May 18, 1987. Such additional parking should have little adverse impact inasmuch as Saturday traffic volumes are not significantly higher than Sunday's. There remains sufficient on-street parking capacity to help meet the future parking needs of Jefferson Street during the times permitted. Sincerely, W.

BE IT RESOLVED by the Council of the City of Roanoke that the City Manager and the Director of Finance are authorized to execute and forward to the Commonwealth of Virginia Department of Corrections an application for a Delinquency Prevention and Youth Development Act Grant in the amount of $36,516.00, to be combined with a local match of $10,000.00, in order to continue implementing a coordi- nated planning and youth services program by the City's Office on Youth for the period July 1, 1987, through June 30, 1988. ATTEST: City Clerk. RECEi',ED CiTY .... '" ' May 4, 1987 Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council Roanoke, Virginia Dear Members of Council: Subject: Renewal Application for Office on Youth Grant I. Back,round: Grant first officially awarded to the City under Virginia Delinquency Prevention and Youth Development Act on June 17, 1980. mo Grant budget is for 12-month period, beginning July I, 1987 through June 30, 1988. Grant provides for continuation of coordinated planning and program implementation of the Office on Youth. D. Grant budget is as follows: BUDGET CATEGORY STATE FUNDS LOCAL MATCH CASH IN-KIND TOTAL Personnel $34,241.00 $ 5,248.00 $39,489.00 Consultants 0 0 0 Travel 735.00 1,350.00 2,085.00 Equipment 0 0 0 Supplies & Other Operating Expenses 1,540.00 3,402.00 4,942.00 TOTAL $36,516.00 $10,000.00 $46,516.00 Fundin~ for local cash match in the amount of $i0,000 has been included in the FY 87-88 Connnunity Planning budget Account 001 052 8110 9536. II. Issues: A. Cost. B. Continuity. C. Staff. D. Impact on future City Budgets. Members of Council May 4, 1987 Page 2 III. Alternatives: Authorize the City Manager to submit the Youth Grant to the State Department of Corrections. Cost (local) of Office on Youth in Fiscal Year 1987-88 is $i0,000, which has been included in the proposed FY 1987-88 budget for Community Planning. 2. Continuity of program would be maintained. Staff, consisting of Youth Services Planner and Administrative Secretary, has been hired under the direction of the Office of Community Planning. Impact on future City budgets would mean continued City cost of 25 percent of total projected budget for the Office on Youth. Do not authorize the City Manager to apply for the renewal of Youth Services Grant from the State Department of Corrections. 1. Cost would not be an issue at this time. 2. Continuity would be questionable. Staff consists of Youth Services Planner and Administrative Secretary, and services would be contingent upon the availability of another funding source. Impact on future City budsets would be the possibility of more than the 25 percent contribution towards maintenance of the program. IV. Recommendation: It is recommended that Council adopt Alternative A which will authorize the City Manager and Director of Finance to execute and forward the grant application to the Department of Corrections. If awarded, the grant will be presented to Council for acceptance and fund appropriation. Respectfully submitted, W.

Back~round: City Council at its April 13, 1987 meeting, publicly opened and read aloud the two bids received for the Wheelchair Lift and Related Work at the Civic Center Coliseum. Construction Services of Roanoke~ Inc., submitted the low bid in the amount of $32~456.00 and 90 consecutive calendar days. Ce Project consists of providing and installing a wheelchair lift similar to the one in the Commonwealth of Virginia Building, the shaft for the lift and the extension of two slabs to create wheelchair parking space on the Williamson Road end of the building. II. Issues are: A. Compliance of the bidders with the requirements of the Contract Documents. B. Amount of the low bid. C. Fundin~ of the project. D. Time of completion. Page 2 III. Alternatives are: Award a lump sum contract to Construction Services of Roanoke, Inc., in the amount of $32~456.00 and 90 consecutive calendar days to provide and install Wheelchair--~ift and Related Work at the Civic Center Coliseum in accordance with the contract documents as prepared by the City Engineer's Office. 1. Compliance of the bidders with the requirements of the contract documents was met. Amount of the low bid exceeded the estimate but is acceptable. The excess is attributed to the additional cost for the lift itself and higher demolition since the lift was moved from its originally proposed location to make it more accessible to the public. Funding for this project is available in the Capital Projects Fund Handicap Compliance Account number 008-002-9507-9003. 4. Time of completion as quoted as 90 consecutive calendar days is acceptable. B. Reject the bids and do not award a contract at this time. 1. Compliance of the bidders with the requirements of the contract documents would not be an issue. 2. Amount of the low bid would probably change if rebid at a later date. 3. Funding would not be encumbered at this time. 4. Time of completion would be extended. IV. Recommendation is that City Council take the following action: A. Concur with the implementation of Alternative A. Be Authorize the City Manager to enter into a contractural agreement with Construction Services of Roanoke, Inc. to construct the Wheelchair Lift and Related Work at the Civic Center Coliseum in accordance with the contract documents as prepared by the City Engineer's Office in the amount of $32~456.00 and 90 consecutive calendar days.

City policy has been to try to acquire property which becomes available, subject to the usual considerations of price and funding availability. Acquisition of subject property, located along the south side of Brownlee Avenue, S.E. immediately across that street from the southerly end of the main S.T.P. structure, would provide a buffer area and future expansion area where City property is now too close to adjoining properties. Properties, all owned by Mr. and Mrs. Jimmie E. Paitsell, con- tain no residential structures. Ail structures in this block were heavily damaged by flooding in November, 1985. Three (3) structures have been acquired and demolished by the City. II. Current Situation: III, A. City Administration has negotiated a price of $4~300.00 for the three (3) parcels of land. B.

Roanoke, Virginia May 4, 1987 Honorable Mayor and City Council Roanoke, Virginia Dear Members of Council: Subject: Conveyance of 0.498 Acres of Land at the Corner of Williamson Road and Orange Avenue from the Roanoke Redevelopment & Housing Authority to the City of Roanoke for a Beautification Project The attached staff report was considered by your Water Resources Committee on April 27, 1987. The Committee recommends that Council ac- cept the property acquired by the Roanoke Redevelopment & Housing Authority and authorize the expenditure of up to $25,000 for beautification purposes. Respectfully submitted, eth T. Bowles, Chairman Water Resources Committee ETB:KBK:afm Attachment CC: City Manager City Attorney Director of Finance Community Planning CITY OF ROANOKE INTERDEPARTMENT COMMUNICATION TO: THROUGH: FROM: DATE: SUBJECT: Mrs. Bowles and Members, Water Resources Committee W. Robert 4/22/87 Conveyance of 0.498 acres of land at the corner of Williamson Road and Orange Avenue from the Roanoke Redevelopment and Housing Authority to the City of Roanoke for a beautification project. I. Background: Roanoke Redevelopment and Housing Authority (RRHA) acquired three parcels of land in December of 1986, totaling 0.498 acres designated as Official Tax Nos. 3020202, 3020204 and 3020205, at the corner of Williamson Road and Orange Avenue for the purposes of beautification. Property is within the Deanwood Community Development Projec~ Area and was acquired with Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds. Additional funds ($25,000) were included in the CDBG budget for landscaping of the property as a gateway to the City and to Williamsen Road. City Planning, Engineering and Parks departments will be developing a landscape plan. It is anticipated that landscape work will be done by a private contractor. RRHA has requested City Council, by letter dated 4/17/87 (see attached letter and plat), to accept the property for the gateway project. II. Issues in order of consideration are: Purpose of RRHA acquisition was to eliminate blighted conditions and provide a gateway entrance to the City and Williamson Road through removal of several billboards and landscaping of the area. Comprehensive Plan has identified this area as an entrance gateway to the City. This project also has been included in the revitalization plans for Williamson Road. CDBG funding of approximately $25,000 is available to landscape the site in account no. 035-085-8530-5143. D. Cost of property acquisition to the City will be $1.00 E. Timing of the project is very important. Acquisition of the property was a lengthy process. Implementation of the landscaping component is needed. If the project is not completed by the fall of 1987, landscaping could not be done until next year. F. Maintenance will be the responsibility of the City. III. Alternatives: A. Recommend that City Council accept the property. 1. Purpose of the acquisition is fulfilled. 2. Comprehensive Plan is followed. 3. CDBG funding is utilized. 4. Cost is $1.00. 5. Timing is met. 6. Maintenance of the property is undertaken by the City. B. Do not recommend that City Council accept the property. 1. Purpose of acquisition is unfulfilled. 2. Comprehensive Plan is not followed. 3. CDBG fundin8 is not utilized as originally included. 4. Cost is not an issue. 5. Timing is not an issue. 6. Maintenance is not an issue. IV. Recommendation: Water Resources Committee concur with Alternative A and recommend to City Council that they accept the property acquired by the RRHA and authorize the expenditure of up to $25,000 for beautification purposes.
