support of TAP programs. He will also discuss a new dental program
where TAP is partnering with City Health Department and Roanoke Area
Health Project to bring teenagers in need of dental care to the city.

Remarks to City Council
The Cily of Roanoke
By
Ted Edlich
TAP President
12/18/06
Mayor Harris, Ylembers of City Council. City Manager Burcham, statì~ visitors,
As always it is a privilege to stand beforc you rcprcsenting thc TAP organization. I am
here on hehalr orthe Board or Directors, starr. and program participants in the l' AP
program to thank you Il)r your support.
This year TAP impacted the lives 01'2.950 individuals in 2270 fami1ics, resident
in the City of Roanoke, by helping them on Iheir way 10 become self supporting memhers
orthis community. TAP has been able to continue its m,\jor initiatives: This Valley
Works, Families in Transition through our Women's Center and Transition Living
Center, I-Iead Start, Housing and Community Development, and Financial Services, The
goal or all our efrorts is to help people become self supporting contributors to their
community,
Just a lew weeks ago we celebrated the completion oflhe Dumas Center which
will open in January ornext year, We appreciate the presence of many of you, ineluding
the Vicc Mayor and the City Manager.
This year we have been particularly pleased with our volunteer tax program, in its
filìh year, which has helped over 1700 1~lmilies gain more than S1,200,000 in tax relUms,
including 51,100,000 in Earned Income Tax and $3()(),000 in Child Tax Credits. 137
individuals have been enrolled in our Individual Development Account program, helping
tàmi1ies save over 5340,000 with their savings match to develop long-lasting assels.
Sixty-one of these families graduated our program and thirty-two are now first-time home
o\\'ners.
TAP is pleased to have played a signilicant role in the successful application for
the Safe Havens program and the Brownields Project. We look tòrward to the City of
Roanoke taking further advantage 01'1' AP's seasoned and dynamic grants development
department.
We are equally pleased to announce that construction will begin this month on
Terraec Nonh. Tn the next 24 months, renovation will result in 78 ncw units, Next year
we will begin preparing a tax credit application for Ten'aee South to bc submitted in
March of '07, Construction on these units will begin at the end of '07 and are planned to
run concurrently.
:
TAP applauds the City of Roanoke's Task Force to rcducc thc levcl of domcstic
violence that robs familics of their ability to prospcr. We only wish that there was a way
for the City of Roanokc to address the presence of predalory lenders in this community
by a slatute which would restrict lenders to no more than 30'% imerest on any loan, much
as New York City, Oakland, Washington, Cleveland, Dayton and Detroit have addressed
this issue.
TAP makes an important financial as well as human eontrihutionlo the City of
Roanoke, We employ 224 of the residents of this City, TAP's budget 01'515,635.000 has
an economic impact of 528,380,652, with at least 51,563,500 or ten percenl retuming in
some foml of state or local taxation. In addition, TAP paid 575,000 in property taxes last
year. The intervention of TAP's programs produce long teml savings of monies that
would have been spent i fT AI' were not here, TAP's downtown commercial buildings
which arc tùlly occupied have supported downtown revitalization, Ironically, non-profits
end up profiting everyone.
The City of Roanoke's General Fund contribution Ihis year of5170,242 to our
budget (a reduction 01'$30,000 from the previous year) is approximately 1.1 % of our total
expenditures, Yet it was critical money that helped to fill the gaps and match other
dollars, It is important to nole that 95% of our budget eame from moncy outside the City
of Roanoke,
1 have gi yen you our 40 year annual report with an update, I have also included a
letter from l3illye White, our Director of Development. Let me conclude where I began.
On hehalfofthe TAP family, thank you for your support.

Dear Mayor Harris and Members of City Council:
Subject: Aggressive Driver Grant
Background:
The Virginia Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) is the administering agency
for pass through funds provided by the United States Department of
Transportation for highway safety projects in Virginia. DMV offers these funds
to successful applicants for activities which improve highway safety in Virginia.
A regional grant application was prepared and the Roanoke Police Department
has been awarded grant funding in the amount of $5,000 as a sub grantee of
the regional effort. The funding is to be used for overtime and related FICA
expenditures associated with conducting selective enforcement activities which
target aggressive motor vehicle operators. The grant period is from October 1,
2006, through September 30, 2007.
There is a statistical correlation between levels of motor vehicle law
enforcement and traffic accidents in the City of Roanoke. Increased patrols,
funded by this grant, are an effective strategy to reduce accidents and prevent
injuries. This program will allow officers to concentrate on aggressive drivers at
times when such violations are most likely to occur.
Recommended Action:
I .' I . : 'I' , I . r , .;', ; ,: t, ;
Accept the Aggressive Driver' Grant funding and authorize the City Manager to,
execute the grant agreements and, any related documents, subject to them ;'
. I ' . ":. . "'.
being approved as to form by the City Atto'rney. l' ',',',
Mayor Harris and Members of City Council

Honorable Brian J. Wish neff, Council Member
Dear Mayor Harris and Members of City Council:
Subject: Revenue Sharing Program
Background:
The Virginia Department of Transportation's (VDOT) Revenue Sharing Program
was made available to Cities for the first time in FY 05-06. These funds are
matching funds and may be used for transportation maintenance and
construction activities. Continuing last year's initiative, the Commonwealth has
made $15 million in Revenue Sharing funds available statewide to cities and
towns that maintain their road systems for FY 06-07.
Considerations:
This year, the most significant change to this program is a tiered approach to
providing funds. All requests in a preceding tier must be funded by VDOT
before requests in the next tier are considered. The first tier provides funding
when the' governing body commits more than $1 million in local funds for a
maximum $1 million match by VDOT. If requests to VDOT exceed funds
available, first tier requests will be based on the amount of City funds
committed above the $1 million match.
Additionally, ,based upon the timing of this year's application process, the State
will consider unmatched funds the locality has spent this fiscal year if
Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council

. pag e 2
expenditures were spent on eligible items under the revenue sharing program
and in accordance with normal state funding requirements. This provides
flexibility to use operating funds from the City's annual paving program as
unmatched funds which may enhance the opportunity for approval.
Staff has identified five projects for which these funds may be used:
· Maintenance and rehabilitation of the Walnut Avenue Bridge (which
supplements last year's revenue sharing funds awarded to this bridge)
· Maintenance and rehabilitation of the Wasena Bridge
· Maintenance and rehabilitation of the Franklin Road Bridge over the
Railroad
· Construction and repair of City curbs and sidewalks
· Annual Paving Program
Staff has identified $1,000,000 in funding to offer as the City's match from the
following funding sources for the above projects:
· Curb, Gutter and Sidewalk / Construction and Repair- $250,000 from the
account titled "Curb, Gutter, Sidewalk #6" (08-530-9809).
· VDOT Highway Project / Local Match - $500,000 from the account titled
"VDOT Highway Projects" (08-530-9575-9210).
· Annual paving program - $250,000 from the account titled "Paving
Program" (01-530-4120-2010.)
Staff has also identified an additional $2,800,000 to offer as unmatched funds
from the following funding sources for the above projects:
· Curb, Gutter and Sidewalk / Construction and Repair- $250,000 from the
account titled "Curb, Gutter, Sidewalk #6" (08-530-9809).
· Walnut Avenue Bridge Improvements - $ 50,000 from the account titled
"Walnut Avenue Bridge Project" (08-530-9511).
· Annual Paving Program - $2,500,000 from the account titled '''Paving
Program" (01-530-41,20-2010.)

Dear Mayor Harris and Members of City Council:
Subject: Authorization to Apply for a
Grant from the Virginia Department of
Transportation for Safe Routes to
School Project Grants
Background:
Safe Routes to School (SRTS) is a federally funded grant program that aims to
improve conditions for bicycling and walking to school for students in grades K
- 8. The Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) is managing these
funds and is soliciting applications for and will award grants to local
jurisdictions within the Commonwealth of Virginia. SRTS consists of two
components: program grants for planning, education and outreach, and project
grants for specific infrastructure projects.
City of Roanoke and Roanoke City Public Schools staffs have met on several
occasions to discuss the opportunities provided by these grants. The SRTS
program will have many potential benefits as follows:
· Encourage active lifestyle for school students.
· Provide safety training and outreach to students and parents.
· Provide infrastructure improvements (e.g., sidewalks, crossings, multi-use
trails) to improve safety for students walking or biking to school.
Mayor Harris and Members of City Council
December 18, 2006
Pag e 2
Roanoke City Public Schools has applied for a SRTS Program Grant that will
provide funds for safety education and outreach. In conjunction with the
Program Grant, the City of Roanoke will assist Roanoke City Public Schools in
the development of a SRTS Plan that will identify existing and potential safe
routes to school, activities to encourage students to walk and bike to school,
and potential projects for the City's elementary and middle schools and their
surrounding communities.
The City of Roanoke would like to pursue a project grant at this time to
complement the SRTS program the City Schools is developing. The project
grant will provide funds for infrastructure improvements to facilitate students
walking and biking to school. VDOT can fund up to $500,000 per project
application. No City matching funds are required for the grant application.
The two proposed projects for the initial SRTS Project grant are as follows:
1. Forest Park Elementary -
a. Connection improvements between the Lansdowne Public
Housing Development and Forest Park Elementary with
connections for other nearby apartment units.
b. Crosswalks at Melrose Avenue and Salem Turnpike.
c. Sidewalk improvements in the Villa Heights neighborhood,
north of the school.
2. Addison Middle School -
a. Multi-use trail extension to connect Villages of Lincoln and
surrounding residential development to the Lick Run
Greenway, Lincoln Terrace Elementary School, and Addison
Middle School (all connections would be in Washington
Park).
,b. Sidewalk connections along Carver Avenue.
.c.' , Sidewalk improvements in neighborhoods surrounding
Addison Middle School. .,
The grant application will be submitted by the City and will be prepared by a
joint team from the City (Planning, Parks and Recreation, Transportation and
Mayor Harris and Members of City Council
December 18, 2006
Page 3
Engineering) and City Schools (Facilities, Physical Education, Transportation and
Grants). The Transportation Division will manage the grant funds for the
projects coordinated by the above-mentioned team of City and City School
staffs.
It is envisioned that this initial project grant will act as a pilot project for future
grant applications and collaborative projects between the City and City Schools
to address SRTS issues throughout the City.
Recommended Action:
Authorize the City Manager to submit an application to VDOT for a Safe Routes
to School Project grant application for the above-mentioned projects and
provide program support through the development of a SRTS plan.
Authorize the City Manager to take such actions and execute such documents
as necessary to submit the application, such documents to be approved as to
form by the City Attorney.

Dear Mayor Harris and Members of Council:
Subject:
2006-07 CDBG/HOME "Officer
at Home" Agreement with Blue
Ridge Housing Development
Corp. (BRHDC)
Background:
Since 1996, BRHDC has conducted numerous housing programs for the City using
Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and HOME Investment Partnerships
Program (HOME) funds. Among these has been the well-received "Officer at Home"
(OATH) program, which has rehabilitated two houses in our core neighborhoods
for homeownership. Through attractively-priced, lease-purchase agreements, a
City police officer now owns a home in the Belmont neighborhood, and another
officer is in the lease phase for a home in Gainsboro. A third OATH home is being
developed, also in Gainsboro, as part of the Project GOLD revitalization activities
continuing in that neighborhood.
Considerations:
As part of the Consolidated Plan approved by City Council for the current fiscal
year, $222,320 in CDBG and HOME was authorized for use by BRHDC to develop
additional OATH housing. With leveraging of resources by BRHDC, it is anticipated
that at least two (2) additional homes can be rehabilitated for homeownership by
City police officers. Because HOME funds comprise most of the approved funding,
the officers' families will have to qualify by income. Should no officers evidencing
an interest qualify for the homes, they will be marketed to other City public safety

Honorable Gwendolyn W. Mason, Council Member
Honorable Brian J. Wishneff, Council Member
Dear Mayor Harris and Members of Council:
Subject: Fourth Amendment to Lease
between the City of Roanoke and the
Commonwealth of Virginia
Background:
On July 1, 1985, the City began leasing space in the Commonwealth Building,
located at 210 Church Ave., to the Commonwealth of Virginia, Department of
General Services (DGS) /Division of Engineering and Buildings for office space
for the Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, Department of
Health, Department of Medical Assistance Services, Department of Blind and
Vision Impaired, Department of Social Services and Department of Corrections.
The Department of General Services located several departments of the
Commonwealth on the ground, first, and third floors of the property including
the Department of Corrections. The original Lease term was for twenty (20)
years and expired June 30, 2005. The parties agreed to an amendment to the
Lease Agreement extending the term one year, which expired on June 30, 2006.
An extension of four months,' from July 1, 2006 until October 31, 2006, was
granted to allow, continued negotiations. The Commonwealth of Virginia did
not execute this Amendment, which extended the lease until October 31, 2006
and would have been the Fourth Amendment.
Negotiations have, been on, going with the DGS for extending the original lease
and regarding certain terms that the current lease contains for 28,908 rentable
square feet. DGS is working to relocate all departments out of the
Honorable Mayor and Members of Council
December 18, 2006
Page 2
Commonwealth Building. In order to meet its required time frame, a lease
extension has been negotiated in two segments, detailed below:
I Square footage ]' Rate ~
11,663 (DOC) $3.96 psf base rent/
$8.11 Common Area
Maintenance fee 1
17,245 (All other ~4.87 psf base rent/
J' departments) $8.11 Common Area
Maintenance fee I
~ Period
111/1/06 - 10/31/07
FOG -7/31/07
,
In the event that DGS does not vacate the leased space by the respective
expiration dates of the lease, October 31,2007, and July 31, 2007, the
proposed amendment provides that DeS shall remain as a holdover tenant on a
month-to-month basis and rent shall be twice the highest Base Rent rate, as
listed above by department, plus all other charges accruing under the Lease,
and be subject to all covenants, provisions and conditions contained in the
Lease. DGS must provide the City with ninety (90) days' notice prior to vacating
space if dates are other than stated above.
Recommended Action:
Authorize the City Manager to execute the appropriate document, approved as
to form by the City Attorney, to amend the Lease Agreement dated March 28,
1984, extending the existing rental terms of the Lease with the Commonwealth
of Virginia Department of General Services, Division of Engineering and
Buildings, for space located in the Commonwealth Building at 210 Church,
Avenue, SW, to October 31, 2007, for DOC and July 31, 2007, for all other
departments. The proposed amendment shall be substantially similar to the
provisions outlined in the attached Fourth Amendment.
Respectfully submitted,
Darlene L. Burcham
City Manager

Subject:
Amendment of License Tax
Code Regarding Display of
Business License
Dear Mayor Harris and Members of City Council:
Background:
Section 19-28 of the Code of the City of Roanoke (1979) requires every person
who pays a license tax to keep the license in a convenient place at the place of
business and, whenever required to do so, present the license to the license
inspector or to any member of the police department authorized to inspect it.
Considerations:
As it currently provides, this section of the Code does not facilitate ease of
inspection by the license inspector or police officer as would be the case if the
license was physically displayed in a visible location at the place of business.
Recommended Action:
In order to facilitate inspection, adopt the attached ordinance amending Section
19-28 of the Code to require ever.y person who pays a license tax to post the
I' ' business license certificate issued: in a convenient and visible place at the place
of business, effective March' 1, 2007, and whenever required to do so, to
present the receipt of payment of business license tax to the license inspector
Honorable Mayor and Members of Council

Alternative A - Orange Avenue & Williamson Road Partial Cloverleaf
Description
This alternative is a partial cloverleaf interchange with a braided ramp f1yover exit to
Williamson Road Southbound and a relocated loop ramp at Kimball Avenue
northbound. At Orange Avenue, the SB exit ramp terminates at an at-grade signalized
intersection. This exit ramp extends back almost to the Liberty Road overpass to allow
enough spacing between this exit and the new Williamson Road/Wells Avenue Exit,
which begins diverging from the mainline in the vicinity of the existing WB 460 to SB 1-
581 entry ramp. That entry ramp is eliminated, and the WB 460 to SB 1-581 movement
is accommodated by a left turn at the new signalized intersection. A sound barrier and
retaining wall will likely be required along the entire west side right of way limits to
lessen the noise impacts of the exit ramp and to accommodate the necessary
excavation to create the exit ramp. These walls and barriers will be very prominent from
both the highway side and the adjacent properties, so aesthetics will likely be important.
The 1-581 bridge over Orange Avenue remains in place with no significant changes to
the basic structure.
The northbound configuration retains the EB 460 to NB 1-581 loop ramp, and a new
signalized intersection is constructed to provide access to WB-460. . An auxiliary lane
runs along the entire NB segment between the NB 1-581 to EB 460 exit ramp and the
current Williamson Road NB 1-581 entry ramp. That entry ramp is relocated
approximately 600 feet to the south with access from Kimball Avenue rather than
Williamson Road. The new ramp runs just north of Shenandoah Avenue and ties into
NB 1-581 in the vicinity of Kimball Avenue, providing greatly improved weave operations
compared to the current inadequate merge and immediate diverge arrangement.
Benefits
· Eliminates substandard mainline weave sections on both NB and SB 1-581
· Eliminates substandard weave sections on both EB and WB U.S. 460
· Eliminates the extremely short weave area between mainline SB 1-581 and
Williamson Road/Wells Avenue ramp
· Provides a continuous auxiliary lane on mainline NB 1-581 between Kimball
Avenue and the NB 1-581 to EB 460 exit ramp.
· Minimizes reconstruction costs and difficulty by utilizing the EB 460 to NB 1-581
loop ramp
· Provides a fairly conventional partial cloverleaf design that should be readily
understood by most motorists
· Minimizes impacts to adjacent properties and stays mostly within existing right-
of-way
· Mainline traffic flow should not be severely impacted since most construction is
outside the shoulder.
· Minimizes impacts to the EB and WB 460 lanes during construction since this
option generally utilizes existing pavement section

· Slightly improves the spacing and geometry for right turns from SB 1-581 to WB
460 and for NB 1-581 to EB 460.
· Minimizes impacts to Lick Run and Lick Run Greenway by straddling the stream
and using structure to reduce stream relocation and stream impacts.
· Minimizes impacts to railroad property and utilities needed to construct relocated
Kimball Avenue to NB 1-581 ramp
· Removal of existing Williamson Road to NB 1-581 entry ramp provide a large
developable parcel with access from two roads
· Corrects the most serious deficiencies between Liberty Road and Shenandoah
Avenue
Challenges
· Requires extensive construction of the new exit ramps for Route 460 between
Liberty Road and Douglass Avenue which move traffic closer to adjacent
properties and require major retaining and sound barrier structures. This
construction creates a very large paved section and eliminates most of the
vegetation in this highly traveled "gateway" corridor
· Replaces free flow condition for SB ramps with a signalized intersection that
increases delay, especially for WB 460 to SB 1-581 traffic. This new signalized
intersection operates at LOS E in year 2025
· Encroaches on Lick Run Greenway, with the construction of a high retaining wall
close to the pedestrian trail
· Encroaches on the pedestrian bridges from Walker AvenUe to the parking lot of
the Roanoke Civic Center (Note: These bridges are being removed and or
replaced as part of the City of Roanoke Walker Avenue Gateway project
currently under design)
· Leaves the existing 1-581 at its current elevation with 13'-8" clearance, well below
the current 16'-6" desirable and 14'-6" minimum for new construction
· Encroaches on the ring road for the Roanoke Civic Center to provide the needed
dual lane exit ramp from NB 1-581 to EB 460

Alternative B - Orange Avenue & Williamson Road (Diverging Diamond)
Description
In the vicinity of Route 460 (Orange Avenue). this alternative calls for the reconstruction
of the existing cloverleaf as a diverging diamond interchange, a relatively new
interchange form that offers high capacity without requiring extensive new or replaced
bridge structure. This alternative most resembles Concept Alternative OA-7, with the
ramp geometry tightened and shifted west to optimize the ramp geometry. It also
requires a significant increase in the length of the SB exit ramp to Route 460, essentially
extending it to just south of the Liberty Road bridge. As with Alternative A, this increase
is needed to allow enough separation between this ramp and the new Williamson
Road/Wells Avenue ramp that exits the mainline just north of Orange Avenue to allow it
to be braided with the 460 to SB 1-581 entry ramp, thereby eliminating a hazardous
weave area. Along Orange Avenue, through traffic is channeled to pass under the 1-581
bridge on the left side (rather than the U.S. customary right side) before returning to the
current alignment on the other side of the new exit ramp terminus. The key to the safe
and efficient operation of this type of interchange is developing positive channelization,
strategic visual screening, and simple clear signage to guide traffic through this
unconventional arrangement of lanes. The main advantage of this design is that the
intersections are simple angled crossings controlled by two phase signals, which allow
shorter cycle lengths and minimize lost time due to amber phases. Also, two lanes of
traffic flow at once in almost every movement, compared to many conventional
signalized intersections that accommodate only single left turns. The resulting level of
service is higher than most comparable alternative designs. The biggest challenges will
be developing the optimal geometry and clear guidance signs within the limited distance
available between the Gainsboro Road/Burrell Street intersection and converting the
existing interchange to this new configuration under traffic. Educating the public about
the operation and advantages of this novel design will also require considerable effort.
By the time this project would be in the construction design phase, at least one such
interchange is expected to be in operation on an interstate highway in Kansas City,
Missouri. The rest of this alternative is identical to Alternative A, with the exception of
the location of the NB 1-581 entry loop ramp from Kimball Avenue, which is shifted
slightly to the south. crossing Shenandoah Avenue and running parallel to it before
crossing back over and merging with the NB mainline.
Benefits
· Eliminates substandard mainline weave sections on both NB and SB 1-581
· Eliminates substandard weave sections on both EB and WB U.S. 460
· Eliminates the extremely short weave area between mainline SB 1-581 and
Williamson Road/Wells Avenue ramp

Alternative C - Elm Avenue Interim Improvements
Description
This Alternative involves improvements to the ramps and bridge at Elm Avenue Avenue.
It closely resembles Concept Alternative EA-1. with the important exception that it does
require the bridges over 1-581/U.S. 220 and over the NS railroad tracks to be widened to
both the north and south sides. This widening requires one additional pier and an
extension of the pier cap and abutment on all corners of the existing bridge. Two
additional girders would be added to each side of the bridge, which would become
about _ feet wider. The design of the widening needs to ensure that the vertical
clearances from the bottom of the bridge structure to the top of roadway or rail are not
reduced. This extra width allows a full length turn lane across the bridge instead of the
very short lanes provided under the current configuration. The extra width also allows
dual left turns from the exit ramp in both the northbound and southbound directions,
dramatically improving the capacity of these movements. The wider bridge also
accomodates sidewalk on both sides, an important feature in this area of high
pedestrian activity. A few small strips of property need to be acquired to allow the
construction of retaining walls along the edges of the exit ramps. The northbound
approach to the Williamson Road intersection is realigned to provide a better radius for
the right turn movement.
It is important to note that Alternative C is not a complete long-range solution to the
traffic problems at Elm Avenue. The traffic models show that while it would be a major
improvement over the existing interchange - dramatically reducing average PM peak
hour stopped delay per vehicle from 320 seconds to 130 for the southbound intersection
and from 68 to 58 for the northbound intersection - this interchange still operates below
the acceptable LOS of D. It should be viewed as a major step toward improving the
situation, and represents an incremental stage in the more permanent solution
represented by Alternative 0, since the extra width on the north side of the bridge
constructed for Alternative C would be necessary for maintenance of traffic Alternative
o is constructed. Alternative C also does nothing to improve the relatively short
acceleration lane to NB 1-581, which would require the widening of the bridge over
Tazewell Avenue. That widening is included in Alternative D.
Benefits
· Provides a major improvement in capacity and a significant reduction in delay,
primarily by allowing dual left turns from both the SB and NB exit ramps
· Significantly improves storage for left turns from Elm Avenue
· Involves relatively straightforward and simple construction techniques and
construction staging
· No homes or businesses would be displaced for the construction of this
improvement
· Provides good pedestrian accommodation
· Represents a relatively economical improvement with the prospect of
implementation in the near term

Central Roanoke Mobility Study
· Requires moderate disruption of traffic and economical traffic maintenance
Challenges
· Improves operations but does not provide acceptable level of service for the long

· Clearance over 1-581 and the NS railroad tracks will be tough to maintain with
widened bridges
· Construction along 1-581 presents minimal staging area and traffic control issues
for construction vehicles
· Retaining walls along the existing exit ramps must be constructed in restricted
areas
· Public may be disappointed if they perceive this construction as providing a full
long term solution
· Does nothing to improve the substandard 14' - 4" vertical clearance (compared
to 16' - 6" desirable clearance) beneath the Elm Avenue Bridge.
· Does nothing to improve the NB 1-581 entry ramp acceleration length

Alternative D - Elm Avenue Long Term Improvements (SPUI)
Description
This Alternative provides a more definite and effective long term traffic solution to the
Elm Avenue bottleneck than Alternative C. The design is a single point urban
interchange (or SPUI), which improves traffic flow by allowing left turns (and mostly dual
left turns) to pass opposite each other to the left of oncoming traffic, thereby eliminating
a signal phase and the associated lost time. This efficiency comes at a considerable
cost, as the bridge generally becomes very wide and has a structurally inefficient
"bowtie" shape with variable girder spacing to provide the necessary geometry. The
main bridge over 1-581 would be constructed mostly in the clear, but would require
challenging pier construction in the center of 1-581. This configuration also requires
extensive retaining walls due to the close proximity of the entry and exit ramps to the
mainline lanes. This extensive investment would provide a significant benefit in terms of
safety and efficiency. By locating the new bridge to the south of the existing bridge and
raising the grade slightly, the vertical clearance is improved by aligning with the lowest
point of the mainline grade. The shorter span length required due to the presence of
the centerline piers also improves the vertical clearance. These two factors help reduce
the needed increase in bridge deck elevation to about one foot, which reduces the
complexity of maintaining traffic during construction, especially on the bridge over the
NS railroad tracks, which would need to be widened but not reconstructed. The
northbound approach to the Williamson Road intersection is realigned to provide a
better radius for the right turn movement.
The SB entry ramp and the NB entry ramp would require difficult staged reconstruction
and realignment to move them further away from the mainline to allow sufficient length
of retaining wall and adjusted vertical grade at the ramp gore. The shift to the south
would also dictate the widening of the bridge over Albemarle Avenue to provide an
adequate acceleration lane length for the SB entry ramp and an adequate deceleration
lane length for the NB exit ramp. The new alignment of Elm Avenue would force the
displacement and complete acquisition of property from two businesses (one pizza
delivery business and one convenience store) located along Elm Avenue and Fourth
Streets. Also. a portion of the self storage warehouse located along Fourth street would
need to be removed and rebuilt to allow for the ramp construction. Fourth Street would
be closed to cross traffic. and a roundabout should be located to accommodate U-turns
in the vicinity of the 6th Street/Bullitt/Jamison Avenue intersection.
Benefits
· Efficient Single Point Urban Interchange design provides an effective long term
solution to the traffic bottleneck at Elm Avenue by accommodating opposing dual

· Provides good pedestrian accommodation
· Lengthens the NB 1-581 entry ramp by widening the east side of the bridge over
Tazewell Avenue.
· Significantly improves the SB 220 entry merge by widening the bridge over
Albemarle Avenue and Williamson Road and extending the acceleration lane.
· Significantly improves the NB 220 exit condition by widening the bridge over
Albemarle Avenue and Williamson Road and extending the deceleration lane.
Challenges
· Maintenance of traffic on Elm Avenue during construction
· Construction of piers along centerline of 1-581/Route 220 will impact mainline
traffic for significant periods of time
· Construction of new girders will require short duration closures and detours on
mainline while steel is being erected
· Bridge over Albemarle arid Williamson Road is high and has unusual geometry
with severe skew Construction along and above rail and vehicular traffic in tight
areas will impact schedule and costs
· Extensive retaining wall construction will be required to separate mainline from
widened ramps
· Two businesses and significant property will be taken for the relocation
· One business will required partial demolition and reconstruction to allow the
widening of the NB exit ramps.
· Closure of 4th Street median opening will impact access to neighboring homes
and businesses
· Widening of bridge over Tazewell Avenue will require significant reconstruction of
Tazewell Avenue to lower the grade under the widened section of the bridge to
maintain minimum clearance. This construction would take several months and
could have a major impact on traffic and local businesses during construction
· Construction of widened shoulder off the south abutment of the
Albemarle/Williamson Road bridge is in extremely tight space behind an existing
business
· Widening to the north side of the existing Elm Avenue bridges over 1-581/220 and
the NS railroad is likely required for maintenance of traffic. (This widening is part
of Alternative C).

Alternative E - Franklin Road/Colonial Avenue/Wonju Street Long Term
Improvements
Description
This Alternative includes improvements very similar to those of Concept Alternatives
FR-1 and CW-1. The bridge over the Roanoke River, the Norfolk Southern Railroad,
and Wiley Drive will be widened on both sides to accommodate an additional lane to
serve as a continuous auxiliary lane handling the heavy weave movements between the
closely spaced interchanges. A short stretch of retaining wall would be needed at each
end of the bridge to tie to the wider abutments. In order to allow necessary horizontal
clearance, the piers of the Brandon Avenue Bridge would have to move outward. This
requires the complete reconstruction of this bridge, including the very challenging job of
constructing piers in the median of Route 220 under traffic. Fortunately, the existing
bridge has enough deck to accommodate the needed three travel lanes on Brandon
Avenue during the staged construction.
As part of the Colonial Avenue Wonju Street improvement project currently under
design by VDOT, the Colonial Avenue exit ramp will be widened to allow dual left turns.
Along Colonial Avenue, the travel'anes will be reassigned to allow a single lane
northbound. a single left turn and two through lanes southbound. NB left turns onto 23rd
street will be prohibited and a narrow concrete median will be constructed between the
Colonial Avenue exit and Wonju Street. Two through lanes and a single left turn lane
on to SB 220 will be provided south of Wonju Street. As these improvements are
funded and approved, they are assumed in place but not shown as part of this
alternative.
The WB approach to Colonial Avenue on Wonju will be widened to allow dual left turns
and a single right turn lane. The SB 220 to EB Wonju Street loop ramp will be
reconfigured to improve the radii and move the merge point closer to Colonial Avenue.
As part of this improvement, the SB 220 bridge over Wonju Street will be widened. a
retaining wall will be constructed along Sanford Street, and the deceleration lane will be
lengthened to allow vehicles more room to slow down prior to exit. In the NB direction,
both the entry and exit loop ramps for NB 220 are eliminated. A signalized at grade
intersection is constructed at the approximate location of the existing ramp termini. This
intersection increases delay on Wonju Street, which currently has no signals between
Colonial and Franklin Avenues.
Benefits
· Significantly improves merge from Franklin Road to SB 220 by creating an
auxiliary lane to allow an adequate weave area.
· Addition of a second left turn lane and the reconfiguration of Colonial Avenue
reduce queuing of PM peak traffic back onto SB 220, reducing a hazardous
condition
· significantly improves safety by eliminating two extremely short weave sections
(one on NB 220) and one on EB Wonju Street) and two ramps with substandard
radii.

· Lengthening and straightening the NB 220 entry ramp and providing an auxiliary
lane allows easier and safer merges.
· Most of the pavement along Wonju Street can be reused, reducing the traffic
maintenance complexity, duration, and cost.
· Accomodates the NB 220 to EB Wonju Street movement, which is currently not
allowed at this interchange. This movement will grow in importance with the
current and proposed development occurring along Franklin Road (Ivy Market),
Reserve Avenue (the Riverside Center). and along Jefferson Street (Carilion
Roanoke Memorial Hospital).
· New configuration removing EB Wonju Street to NB 220 entry loop allows ample
length and dedicated lane for SB 220 to EB Wonju exit loop ramp
Challenges
· Construction of widened bridge over NS railroad tracks, Roanoke River, and
Wiley Drive is very difficult due to rail traffic and safety requirements, pier
heights, lack of staging and layout areas, steep slopes at the abutments, and
high traffic volumes on 220
· Horizontal clearance requirements from piers to railroad tracks may complicate
geometry of bridge widening.
· Partial demolition of bridge deck next to traffic and preventing falling debris is
important
· Replacement of the Brandon Avenue bridge requires difficult foundation and pier
construction between lanes of traffic, staged construction, temporary detours,
and minimal staging and laydown areas.
· Proximity of homes and businesses to retaining walls along widened section
south of Brandon Avenue impacts construction techniques and increases risk
and costs
· Short distance between the ramp gore at Colonial Avenue and Wonju Street exit
ramps limits decision time for drivers unfamiliar with the configuration
· Widening for NB 220 exit to Wonju Street requires extension of concrete railroad
tunnel and adjacent retaining wall
· New signalized intersection on Wonju introduces a new source of delay between
two nearby busy intersections where current conditions offer free flow (albeit with
inadequate geometry)
· Staging construction of new ramps while maintaining traffic on existing ramps

Alternative F - Franklin Road/Colonial Avenue/Wonju Street Interim Improvements
Description
This Alternative shares many features with Alternative E (and Concept Alternatives FR-
1 and CW-1) with several very important differences. This can be considered an interim
solution with considerably less complexity and costs that could be implemented as a
necessary stage in implementing Alternative E.
One major difference is the bridge over the Roanoke River and the Norfolk Southern
Railroad and Wiley Drive is widened only on the west side to accommodate an
additional lane to serve as a continuous auxiliary lane to handle the heavy weave
movements between the SB Franklin Road and SB Colonial Avenue interchanges. A
short stretch of retaining wall would be needed at each end of the bridge to tie to the
wider abutments. In order to allow necessary horizontal clearance, the piers of the
Brandon Avenue Bridge would have to move outward. This requires the complete
reconstruction of this bridge, including the very challenging job of constructing piers in
the median of Route 220 under traffic. Fortunately, the existing bridge has enough deck
to accommodate the needed three travel lanes on Brandon Avenue during the staged
construction.
As with Alternative E, as part of the Colonial Avenue Wonju Street improvement project
currently under design by VDOT, the Colonial Avenue exit ramp will be widened to allow
dual left turns. Along Colonial Avenue, the travel lanes will be reassigned to allow a
single lane northbound, a single left turn and two through lanes southbound. NB left
turns onto 23rd street will be prohibited and a narrow concrete median will be
constructed between the Colonial Avenue exit and Wonju Street. Two through lanes
and a single left turn lane on to SB 220 will be provided south of Wonju Street. As
these improvements are funded and approved, they are assumed in place but not
shown as part of this alternative. The WB approach to Colonial Avenue on Wonju will be
widened to the median side to allow dual left turns and a single right turn lane.
The main change to the Wonju Street interchange is the elimination of the EB Wonju
Street to NB 220 entry loop ramp. This movement will be accommodated by an at-
grade signalized left turn lane that utilizes the current median side through lane for
storage. The SB 220 to EB Wonju Street loop ramp remains in its current location. but
with the removal of the loop ramp, the weave lane becomes the second EB though lane,
and ties to the existing alignment just before the existing bridge over the NS Railroad
tracks. The WB Wonju to NB 220 ramp remains in place, and is modified to
accommodate the left turns that formerly used the loop ramp that is removed under this
option. The NB 220 to WB Wonju street loop ramp remains in service in its current
configuration.
This option does require some additional pavement and the installation of a signal to
provide a protected left turn phase, which will introduce some delay compared to the
current configuration. However, it will improve safety by eliminating two extremely short

Central Roanoke Mobility Study
weave sections. The remaining loop ramps will still have substandard radii, but without
accelerating vehicles sharing the weave area, the necessary deceleration can occur
with minimal effect on mainline traffic flow.
Benefits
· Significantly improves merge from Franklin Road to SB 220 by creating an
auxiliary lane to allow an adequate weave area.
· Addition of a second left turn lane and the reconfiguration of Colonial Avenue
reduce queuing of PM peak traffic back onto SB 220, reducing a hazardous
condition
· significantly improves safety by eliminating two extremely short weave sections
(one on NB 220) and one on EB Wonju Street) and two ramps with substandard
radii.
· Lengthening the NB 220 entry ramp allows easier and safer merges.
· Minimal disruption to traffic on Wonju is required during construction.
· This option represents a lower cost interim stage that is required for the ultimate
construction of Alternative E.
Challenges
· Construction of widened bridge over NS railroad tracks, Roanoke River, and
Wiley Drive is very difficult due to rail traffic and safety requirements, pier
heights, lack of staging and layout areas. steep slopes at the abutments, and
high traffic volumes on 220
· Horizontal clearance requirements from piers to railroad tracks may complicate
geometry of bridge widening.
· Partial demolition of bridge deck next to traffic and preventing falling debris is
important
· Replacement of the Brandon Avenue bridge requires difficult foundation and pier
construction between lanes of traffic, staged construction, temporary detours,
and minimal staging and laydown areas.
· Proximity of homes and businesses to retaining walls along widened section
south of Brandon Avenue impacts construction techniques and increases risk
and costs
· Short distance between the ramp gore at Colonial Avenue and Wonju Street exit
ramps limits decision time for drivers unfamiliar with the configuration
· New signalized intersection on Wonju introduces a new source of delay between
two nearby busy intersections where current conditions offer free flow (albeit with
inadequate geometry)
· Omitting widening of NB side of the bridge over the NS rail yard, Roanoke River,
and Wiley Drive provides a reduced merge zone and less improvement to safety
than Alternative E.

Central Roanoke Mobility Study
Alternative G - Roberts Road to Overland Road Connector (Bridge and Fill)
Description
This alternative is very similar to Concept Alternative RO-1. The design calls for the
construction of a new two-lane link between Roberts Road on the east side of U.S. 220
and Colonial Avenue on the west side of U.S. 220 at the intersection of Overland Road.
This connecting road provides a more direct link between parts of South Roanoke and
the commercial areas along 220 south and Route 419 and the areas around Colonial
Avenue and Brambleton Avenue. There is a considerable amount of school related
traffic that would be well served by this road and which would be removed from the
Wonju Avenue and Colonial Avenue intersection area, providing operational
improvements at that location.
The proposed design features sidewalks and space for bicycle lanes on both sides of
the road. It ties generally at grade at the top of the hill where Roberts Road currently
makes a sharp turn to the south. Some retaining wall and a small amount of property
acquisition will be required from the Carilion facility just north of the termination point.
From there the alignment runs along the back of the residential properties along
Beechwood Lane before curving to the south and crossing U.S. 220, with most of the
roadway on bridge structure. Between Route 220 and the NS railroad tracks the
roadway is built on a high fill section contained by tall abutment walls paralleling the
roadway and the tracks. A relatively short skewed bridge carries the road over the
tracks before the alignment curves sharply and ties in at the intersection of Colonial
Avenue and Overland Road. The grade of the road comprises a gentle crest curve
over U.S. 220 and the railroad tracks that ties to a moderate sag curve near Colonial
Avenue to allow the roadway to tie into the adjacent parking lot and turnaround loop for
the new Virginia Western Community College administration building.
Benefits
· Provides a "missing link" between two neighborhoods with strong daily traffic
demand, much of it related to school and community college traffic. In particular,
the neighborhood just south of the proposed alignment would have much better
access to the schools and parks along Overland Road
· Relieves sections of Wonju and Colonial Avenue and to a lesser degree Franklin
Road by removing significant volumes of traffic.
· May provide some economic boost to properties along Franklin Road by making
them easier to access for many Southwest City households.
· Provides alternative access (including emergency vehicle access) across the
railroad tracks and highway in an area where the nearest adjacent crossings are
over two miles apart.
· Provides a direct connection to the main VWCC parking lot, significantly easing
the access for students and faculty during the evening peak hour.
· Provides a much more user friendly pedestrian and bicycle link between two
major arterials than currently exists.

Central Roanoke Mobility Study
Challenges
· Because of the extensive length, considerable height, and complex geometry of
the proposed bridges, the costs for this alternative are high.
· Since this roadway is not absolutely critical to the function of Wonju Street
interchange, federal or state funding for this alternative is unlikely
· The roadway separates the VWCC administrative building from the rest of the
campus and takes several parking spaces. The initial reaction of the VWCC
administration is unfavorable.
· Access to several sections of the bridge for construction will be challenging,
especially construction of piers and their foundations within the centerline of U.S.
220
· Setting long spans over existing highway and rail traffic will require coordination
and temporary detours and short term nighttime highway closures.
· The noise and loss of privacy associated with the construction of a new road
near residential neighborhoods is likely to create some opposition from the
residents most impacted by the construction

Alternative H - Roberts Road to Overland Road Connector (Full Bridge Option)
Description
This alternative is also very similar to Concept Alternative RO-1 and Final Alternative G.
The main difference is that the fill section between U.S. 220 and the NS railroad tracks
is replaced by bridge structure, which also extends further to the west to provide room
for a narrow connecting service road to link the administration building to the main
parking lot and much of the rest of the VWCC campus.
The design calls for the construction of a new two-lane link between Roberts Road on
the east side of U.S. 220 and Colonial Avenue on the west side of U.S. 220 at the
intersection of Overland Road. This connecting road provides a more direct link
between parts of South Roanoke and the commercial areas along 220 south and Route
419 and the areas around Colonial Avenue and Brambleton Avenue. There is a

the road. It ties generally at grade at the top of the hill where Roberts Road currently
makes a sharp turn to the south. Some retaining wall and a small amount of property
acquisition will be required from the Carilion facility just north of the termination point.
From there the alignment runs along the back of the residential properties along
Beechwood Lane before curving to the south and crossing U.S. 220 and the NS
Railroad tracks entirely on bridge structure, which curves sharply and ties in at the
intersection of Colonial Avenue and Overland Road. The grade of the road comprises
a gentle crest curve over U.S. 220 and the railroad tracks that tie to a moderate sag
curve near Colonial Avenue to allow the roadway to tie into the adjacent parking lot and
turnaround loop for the new Virginia Western Community College administration
building.

Honorable Mayor and members of City Council, Roanoke Virginia
Re: Impact on non-protit organization of an Elmwood Park Amphitheater
The attached resolution and statement drafted and adopted by the Board of
Directors of EventZone is our organization's drort, representing the interests of all
non-protit groups hosting and running downtown events, festivals and activities, to
bring to the attention of Roanoke City Council and City leadership thc likely
impacts of an Elmwood Park located Amphitheat er. Please note, EventZone does
not take an ofticial stance on the "best" location of an Amphitheatcr in the City. It
is also important to stress that this information in no way means that the selection
of Elmwood Park as a site for a possible Amphitheater is not a good one.
However, the likely impact on non -profit groups if Elmwood Park were selected is
an important factor that needs to he entered into any discussions on this matter.
v' Finally, it should be noted that if an Amphitheater were build in Elmwood
Park, City mandated considerations and terms with the appointed management
group of the complex that would provide u sage, advance scheduling and fees
concessions for these non-protits organizations would serve to eliminate many of
the negative impacts outlined on the attached document.
Thanks for your foresight and consideration.

Roanoke Amphitheater
Resolution & Statement
December 5, 2006
EvcntZone. a non-pro Iii corporatinn and "Dnwnlown Roanokc's event and feslival clll11lcction;' is thc pmducer
ami promoter of many of Roanoke's largest outdnor events and is also the support organization Il)r all groups
hol'.ling cvents and testivals in downtown Roanoke.
The EventZone Board of Diæctors cndorscs the concept of developing and constructing an amphitheater
pertllnllance complex within the City of Roanoke. EventZone sees the likely impact of such an amphitheater
complex as a hoost to the local economy. as a leap in further establishing Roanoke as a regional entertainment hub
and destination. and as a great source of pride and enthusiasm tlJr City and Roanoke Valley residents. Thc
EventZone Board of Directors also wishes to express and emphasize thc following relevant eonsidcrations as they
relate to this potential projcct.
. Elmwood Park is currently by tilr the single most used downtown venue tl)r non-protit events. festivals and
aelivities,
o During thc period July 1.2005 through June 30. 2006, Elmwood Park hosted sixty (6ll) days of non-
protit events. lestiva1s and/or activities. ()fthese, thirly-nine (39) days altraetcd 1.000 or more
pcrsons.
o Altendanec at all sixty days of events, teslivals and/or activities hosted in E1mwood Park during the
pcrind July I, 2ll(5 through Junc 30, 211116 is estimated to be nearly 95,000 persons,
o Twenty-seven (27) ditlèrent non-protit organizations held events, testivals and/or activities in
Elmwood Park during the period July I, 2()(5 through June 3(), 2006.
. If Elmwond Park was selected as thc site of an amphitheater, and if that action resulted in current non-pro lit
evcnt organizers being unable to utilize Elmwood Park tlJr their efforts. negative impacts would result.
These negative impacts would likely inelude:
o Relocation of displaced events, festivals and activities to other locations or nearby municipalities.
thus not drawing those perSllllS to downtown.
o Possible discontinuation of some events. testivals and activities, thus reducing the opportunity tl)f
those event organizers to raise funds and organization awareness,
o If funding opportunities were lost through reduced, relocated or discontinued evcnts. testivals
and/or activities, those effected non-profit organizations may be toreed to rcduee some services.
This may also increase their future funding requests trom the City of Roanokc,
Whcn thc time is appropriate. EventZone encourages City leadership 10 consider these items while
embarking upon diseussinns. decisions and planning of a Roanoke amphitheater. EventZone urges that ¡my
prop()sed amphitheater project and plans, especially if located in Elmwood Park. include accommodation of
existing events and their non-protil organizers in lenns of access, affordabi1ity and abilily to reserve datl's well in
advance: consideration of the amphitheater's physical features and design in order to suit current events and
tèstivals: as welt as the overall need t(lr open green-space in downtown tor events and testivals and for general
citizen enjoyment.

Re: Resolution Authorizing Issuance of up to $1,097,571 of Qualified Zone Academy
Bonds to be Used to Pay Costs of Repairs, Rehabilitation and/or Equipment for
Patrick Henry High Sehool
Gentlemen and Ms, Mason:
Our finn serves as bond counsel to the City in eonnection with certain school bond
finaneings, On November 20, 2006, Council adopted a reimbursement resolution indicating its
intent 10 finance the costs of certain expenditures for rehabilitation, repairs and/or equipment for
Patrick Henry High School through the issuance by the City ofa qualified zone academy bond,
and authorized a public hearing to be held on December 18, 2006, in connection with the
issuance of the qualified zone academy bond.
As I indicated in my previous letter to you regarding the reimbursement resolution, the
QZAB is in essence an interest-free loan to the City, In order to proceed with the final approval
and issuance of the qualified zone academy bond, the City Council must hold the public hearing
and then adopt a final bond resolution authorizing issuance of the qualified zone academy bond,
I have prepared and attach for your consideration at the December 18 Council meeting
the final bond resolution authorizing the issuance of the qualified zone academy bond. The
resolution approves the details of the bond, including an estimate debt service schedule and
related documents, and authorizes and directs the Mayor or the Vice Mayor and the Clerk or any
Depuly Clerk of the Cily 10 execute and deliver the bonds to Bank of America as purchaser
thereof. Following adoption of the resolution, the financing is expected to be finalized and
proceeds available to the City on or before December 31, 2006,

Honorable David B. Trinkle, Vice-Mayor

Honorable Beverly T. Fitzpatrick, Jr., Council Member
Honorable Sherman P. Lea, Council Member
Honorable Gwendolyn W. Mason, Council Member
Honorable Brian J. Wishneff, Council Member
Dear Mayor Harris and Members of City Council:
Subject:
Public Hearing and Authorization for Issuance of Qualified Zone
Academy Bonds (QZAB) - Patrick Henry High School
Background and Current Situation:
In July 2006, City Council was informed of the additional cost of approximately
$6.1 million to finalize the Patrick Henry High School construction project. To
fund these costs, the City agreed to support debt issuance adequate to fund
construction costs of approximately $4.6 million. As such, authorization has
previously been made by City Council to issue VPSA general obligation bonds.
The Schools will provide annual funding of debt service on these bonds.
Recently, we have learned that Qualified Zone Academy Bonds (QZAB) may be
available to fund up to $1,097,571 of the final construction costs. The QZAB
initiative is a federal program that allows lending institutions, private businesses
and schools to form a mutually beneficial partnership to support education. The
program permits the City to sell interest-free tax credit bonds to banks or other
qualified financial institutions to finance repairs, rehabilitation, equipment,
training or curriculum materials for a qualifying school. Schools qualify based on
(a) their partnership with private business to enhance the academic curriculum,
increase graduation and employment rates and better prepare students for college
and the workplace (including a required matching private contribution of at least
10% Of the QZAB amount), and (b) the percentage of free lunch students which
must be 35 percent or greater. Patrick Henry's free lunch rate is 37.83%.
Honorable Mayor and Members of Council
December 18, 2006
Page 2
Public notification has appropriately been made such that City Council may hold a
public hearing for the issuance of a qualified zone academy bond to benefit the
financing of the high school project. Our goal is to utilize QZAB funding, to the
extent available, in lieu of VPSA financing, due to the interest savings associated
with this financing option.
If QZAB proceeds are received by the school division, the spring VPSA bond
financing for Patrick Henry will be reduced by the amount of QZAB proceeds
(expected to be $1,097,571).
Recommendation:
Following a public hearing, City Council adopt the accompanying resolution to
authorize the issuance of General Obligation Qualified Zone Academy Bonds
(QZAB) in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $1,097,571, for the
purpose of financing certain rehabilitation, repairs, and/or equipment for Patrick
Henry High School.

at 4803 Williamson Road, N.w.. Official Tax No, 2170128, from
CG, Commercial-General District, and RM-2, Residential Mixed
Density District, to CG, Commercial-General District, with certain
conditions proffered by the petitioner, in order to permit the
construction of a fire station on the site,
Planning Commission Action:
Planning Commission public hearing was held on Thursday, November 16, 2006, Bya
vote of 6-0 (Mr. Manetta absent for the vote). the Commission recommended approval
of the proposed rezoning, The Commission, in separate correspondence, has outlined
comments and further recommendations on the construction of the fire station.
Background
The petitioner owns property located in the Preston Park Neighborhood at 4803
Williamson Road, NW (Official Tax No. 2170128), which is split-zoned CG, Commercial-
General District and RM-2, Residential Mixed Density District. The petitioner wishes to
rezone the property to CG(c), Commercial-General District with proffered conditions, to
permit the construction of a fire station on a currently vacant lot. The fire station will
also include a community room available to the public.
The site development plan calls for a two bay, one-story fire station with a third bay
option, Fire trucks will access the site from Lanford Street, N.W" and exit the site onto
Birchlawn Avenue, N.W, Employees and visitors will use the same ingress/egress
points for access to the proposed surface parking lots, The petitioner has also
1
proposed to construct a sidewalk along Williamson Road, N,W., and Sirchlawn Avenue,
NW,
The Petition to Rezone was filed on October 19, 2006, Amended petitions were filed on
November 7, 2006, and November 21, 2006, to address specific staff and Commission
comments.
Considerations
Surroundinq Zoninq Districts and Land Uses
The subject property is located at the intersections of Williamson Road, NW, Sirchlawn
Avenue, N,W" and Lanford Street, N,W, It is currently zoned CG District along
Williamson Road NW" and RM-2 District along Lanford Street, N,W, Immediately
surrounding zoning and land use are as follows:
· CG, Commercial-General District: Various commercial uses, including fast food
establishments, retail sales and service establishments, motor vehicle sales, and
an extended stay hotel, surround the subject property to the north, south and
west.
· RM-2, Residential Mixed Density District: Two single-family detached dwellings
are located across Sirchlawn Avenue, N,W" from the subject property.
· R-5, Residential Single-Family District: Single-family detached dwellings extend
to the east across Lanford Street, N,W" from the subject property,
Conditions Proffered by the Petitioner
The petitioner proffers the following conditions:
1, The property will be developed in substantial conformity with the site plan
prepared by Caldwell White Associates. dated November 3, 2006, a copy of
which is attached to this Petition as Exhibit 2, subject to any changes that may be
required by the City during development plan review,
2, The fire station will be developed in substantial conformity with the Exterior
Elevations plan, prepared by Rodriguez Ripley Maddux Motley Architects and
Cole + Russell Architects, dated November 16, 2006, a copy of which is attached
to this Petition to Rezone as Exhibit 3,
Compliance with the Zoninq Ordinance
The subject property was split-zoned by Ordinance No. 17993 adopted by City Council
on February 19, 1968, The request rezoned one acre of Official Tax Map No, 2170128
from RS-3. Single-Family Residential District, to C-2, General-Commercial District, for
the construction of two commercial buildings, These buildings were demolished in
2
2005, leaving the site vacant. In December of 2005, the site was comprehensively
rezoned to comparable zoning districts, RM-2, Residential Mixed Density District, and
CG, Commercial-General District.
Rezoning the entire property to CG, Commercial-General District, with conditions, will
allow the site to serve the public as a fire station and community room, The site layout
as proposed on Exhibit 2 of the First Amended Petition to Rezone meets the use and
dimensional standards of the CG District.
Public Comment
The Williamson Road Area Residents Association commented on this petition, The
Association stated they were pleased with the prospect of a well maintained City facility
in the area but were concerned about noise associated with the operation of the station,
There was no one present from the neighborhood present at the Commission's public
hearing.
Compatibilitv with the Citv's Comprehensive and Neiqhborhood Plans
Both Vision 2001-2020 and the Williamson Road Area Plan support efforts to increase
and improve fire and EMS services, The addition of this fire station will fill an identified
need for the area, The Williamson Road Area Plan states that the fire station located at
the airport should be relocated to the northern end of Williamson Road to decrease
response times in the area, The plan specifies that the station should occupy an
underused, abandoned or deteriorated commercial site.
The plans also list improving the design of new buildings and sites as a high priority.
The Williamson Road community has expressed a need for identifiable, unique places
that are attractive from all visible sides, The community also expressed a desire for
new non-residential buildings to be located towards the front of the site so objectionable
activity, noise and light are physically moved away from residences.
The following policies from the Vision 2001-2020 Comprehensive Plan and the
Williamson Road Area Plan are relevant in the consideration of the current petition,
. Vision 2001-2020:
PS P3: Fire and EMS services. All areas of the City will have fire and
emergency services that are located to provide the most effective and
equitable protection.
. Williamson Road Area Plan:
o Community Design:
. Building Scale: Multiple-story buildings will be encouraged in
commercial patterns to make efficient use of limited commercial
land and to provide for diverse uses,
. Building Location: Zoning regulations will encourage a pedestrian
environment and desirable streetscape by allowing future buildings
3
to be located close to the street, with the intent to set in motion a
long range transition of commercial forms.
· Parking lots should be located to the side or rear of the building,
· Relationship between commercial and residential can and should
be harmonious,
o Public Service Policy:
· Public Safety: Roanoke will continue to provide excellent public
safety services to the area and will seek opportunities to improve
effectiveness of its services. (Action: Construct a new Fire/EMS
Station along the northern Williamson Road Corridor to improve
response and service to residential and commercial areas,
Preference in site selection should be given to abandoned or
underused commercial properties.)
Many design principles specified in the Vision 2001-2020 Comprehensive Plan are
relevant in the consideration of the current petition. The development plan relates to the
following design principles:
· A sidewalk has been provided along Williamson Road NW., which extends an
existing sidewalk from the north, and Sirchlawn Avenue N.W.
· Street trees are provided along Williamson Road, NW and Lanford Street, NW"
in accordance with the Zoning Ordinance,
· Off-street parking is located to the side/rear of the building,
· While the building's entrance has been oriented towards Williamson Road, N,W"
Sirchlawn Avenue, N.W" has been chosen as the front yard by way of setback.
Vision 2001-2020 states that buildings should define the street corridor as a
public space through consistent setbacks and building fronts/entrances.
Topography has been identified as the basis for this design,
The Williamson Road Area Plan identified future land use of the subject property as
small and medium scale commercial. The future land use surrounding the subject
property is also identified as small and medium scale commercial.
Presentation at Planninq Commission Work Session
The petitioner presented the site plan and preliminary building design to the Planning
Commission at its work session on October 6, 2006. Design comments include the
following:
1, Grade the site and relocate building closer to Williamson Road, NW" to improve
the building's relationship to Williamson Road and create a buffer for adjacent
residential properties, If this cannot be achieved find an appropriate use and
design concept for the open space at the front of the building,
2, Provide visual unification between the fire station and apparatus bays,
3. Remove the vehicular entrance from Lanford Street, N,W., to lessen the impact
on adjacent residential properties,
4
4. Place all parking to the rear of the building, away from Williamson Road, N.w.
Planninq Commission Discussion
Discussion primarily focused on the design of the proposed fire station and its
relationship to the surrounding neighborhood, To address staff and Planning
Commission comment, the petitioner proffered a revised front and side elevation which
specified the building material as pre-cast concrete and brick and added glass doors to
the apparatus bays, The Planning Commission asked what roofing material had been
chosen. The petitioner responded that they had chosen architectural grade shingles,
The Planning Commission agreed this was a more appropriate material for the area
than the original proposal of metal. The petitioner also discussed adding a plaza and
wall area along Williamson Road to better establish a visual relationship between the
building and the public right-of-way. The Planning Commission asked if the plaza and
wall area were proffered as well. The Petitioner responded that they could not proffer
the plaza and wall area due to insufficient funds, stating that they had already had to
scale down the station in size,
Other discussion with the petitioner included the following: ,
· The Planning Commission asked if a sidewalk had been included on the
proffered site plan along Williamson Road. The petitioner stated that it had been
included,
· The Planning Commission asked if the petitioner foresaw the downsizing
affecting safety levels. The petitioner responded that the fire station would still
be functional as the area reduced would have been for spare vehicles.
· The Planning Commission asked if the community room had been retained
through the downsizing, The petitioner responded that the community room had
been retained.
· The Planning Commission asked whether the emergency generators were gas or
diesel as diesel generators are loud and would disturb the station's residential
neighbors, The petitioner stated that they would be gas,
There were no speakers from the public during the hearing,
Recommendation
By a vote of 6-0, the Planning Commission recommends approval of the request to
rezone the subject property to CG, Commercial-General District with proffered
conditions, to allow the construction of a fire station, The northern Williamson Road
corridor was specifically identified as the appropriate location for a new fire station by
5
the Williamson Road Area Plan. However, Planning Commission is concerned that the
proffered site plan and elevations do not fully support design elements listed in the
City's Comprehensive and Neighborhood Plans, To address these concerns, the
Commission has provided additional comments and recommendations in a separate
document.

The Honorable C, Nelson Harris, Mayor
and Members of Roanoke City Council
Roanoke, Virginia
Dear Mayor Harris and Members of Council:
Subject: Williamson Road Fire Station
At our November 16, 2006, meeting, the Planning Commission voted 6-0 to recommend
the rezoning of a site at the corner of Williamson Road and Birchlawn Avenue for the
construction of a new fire station, As an appendix to our vote, my fellow Commissioners
instructed me to write to you and express our concerns about the design of the project.
At our October 6th work session. the Commission received an initial presentation on the
station's design, We expressed concerns that the building was pulled back so far from
Williamson Road and was thus overly close to residential properties to the rear of the
site, It was explained that the grade of the site and traffic backups on Williamson Road
required that the building be pulled back so that a fire apparatus exiting the site could
first enter onto Birchlawn, We then suggested that the open space between the building
and the street be developed into a small park or other appropriate public use.
We also expressed disappointment with the building's rather undistinguished design,
We felt that this design was not at the architectural quality level of several of the City's
other fire stations and that it would also not elevate the level of design along the
Williamson Road corridor, We made several suggestions on how to improve the
design. These suggestions were accepted graciously, but with the reply that a very tight
budget was limiting the architect's ability to do very much.
The design presented to us on November 16th as the final design is actually a step
backward, The apparatus bays are smaller than before, thus limiting their usefulness,
A portion of the station is now to be constructed of tilt-up concrete panels, a method of
construction utilized in Home Depot stores, The remainder of the station is faced with
brick, but with a base of split-face concrete block which cheapens the effect of the brick.
We were also shown a design for a small public plaza fronting on Williamson Road
which would be a nice public amenity and would give the station a presence along the
road frontage, It was explained that budget considerations had driven the downsizing of
the apparatus bays, the cheapening of the facades, and the deletion of the plaza,
Members of Council
Page 2
December 18, 2006
City Engineer Phil Schirmer informed us that the budget for the project had been
established in 2001 and had not been upgraded since, even though construction costs
have risen at unprecedented rates since, Mr. Schirmer explained that since the budget
was fixed, staff's only alternative was to downsize and downgrade the quality of the
project.
Our city is graced with a number of fire stations that are beloved by our citizens for their
architectural design qualities, The Planning Commission wishes to advise Council that
this station, as currently envisioned, will never reach that status, The project is, in our
opinion, simply not adequately funded at this point and, if it proceeds on its current
course, we feel that Council and the citizenry will be disappointed with the end result.
We respectfully request that Council reconsider the budget for this project and add the
necessary funds so that its design may be elevated to a level comparable with the City's
other fire stations.
Sincerely yours,
~èWA·V~

Dear Ms. Anselmo:
Your petition appealing a decision of the Architectural Review Board for a
Certificate of Appropriateness with regard to property located at 637 Mountain
Avenue, S. W., was before the Council of the City of Roanoke at a regular
meeting which was held on Monday, December 18, 2006.
Based upon evidence presented on December 18, 2006, Council voted to affirm
the decision of the Architectural Review Board on October 12, 2006, and that
no Certificate of Appropriateness be issued approving existing window to door
replacement at 637 Mountain Avenue, S. W., as set forth in the Petition for
Appeal, on the grounds that the doors are not of the same design as the
materials on the building and the proposed installation would not maintain the
architectural defining features of the building.
Sincerely,
~M,~~

Public Hearing B-l.a.
IN THE CITY COUNCIL OF ROANOKE CITY
1. Paula Anselmo and Keith Hummer reside at 637 Mountain
Avenue, SW, Roanoke, Virginia 24016, which is located in the
H-2 Historic Overlay District. Paula's mother is 85 years old,
suffers from diabetes, has recently broken her hip, and needs
assistance with her mobility. It is anticipated that Paula's
mother and her 87 year old father will be moving from
Massachusetts to Roanoke soon. The need for easy
accessibility is most important as both parents have regularly
scheduled medical appointments outside the home. This
would require modifications to Paula and Keith's home.
2. While considering their options, Paula and Keith consulted the
Architectural Guidelines for the H-2 District which suggested
locating a handicapped ramp "at the rear or side of a building
where there is direct access to parking areas". The
neighboring property lines are too close to allow a ramp on
either side of the building. The distance from the back door
to the alley way in the back is over 90 feet. Roanoke police
say they will ticket any vehicle double parked in the alley
way. There is no legal parking available at the rear or sides
of the house.
3. The American for Disabilities Act would allow a ramp to be
constructed at the front of the house, along with an ADA
compliant doorway. In order to meet code, this ramp would
have to traverse back and forth in front of the house and
would cost a tremendous amount of money. An installation
such as this would have been counter to the Architectural
Guidelines which advises "do not install a ramp that will
obscure or damage important features of a building".
4. If an accessible ramp were to be build out back (as suggested
by members of the ARB), a person must pass through an
existing interior door opening that is only 31 inches wide to
access the rest of the house. This door opening cannot be
modified without renovating the entire kitchen. Uniform
Federal Accessibility Standards state "doorways shall have a
minimum clear opening of 32 inches".
5. Paula and Keith decide to create an accessible entry in the
front of the house because parking was readily available; the
travel distance was less than 30 feet and the front porch was
covered. This modification was considered to be the least
intrusive, most cost effective, and well within the guidelines
of Virginia's Fair Housing Act, for "reasonable modifications".
6. In April of 2006, Paula and Keith install a 4'-0" wide, French
door, in place of an existing 4'-0" wide window, removing
only the portion of the wall below the existing window sill
(approximately 16"). The work did not necessitate a separate
building permit because no structural alterations were
performed. The door installation was inspected by a city
building inspector, as part of an open permit for general
renovations to the property,
7. In October of 2006 the Architectural Review Board ordered
the removal of the door because it violated the Architectural
Guidelines of the H-2 Historic District. During the hearing it
was pointed out several times by Mr. Hummer that the door
installation represented a "reasonable modification" for
handicapped access in accordance with state and federal
laws.
8. The appellants refer Council to the enclosed copy of the
Virginia Fair Housing Law 36-96.1 and the reference
"handicap", "discriminatory housing practices" and
"elderliness". The definitions of those terms are listed in the
enclosed 36-96.1: 1. It should be noted Mr. Hummer reached
his fifty-fifth birthday in February of 2006. The highlighted
terms "aggrieved person" and "restrictive covenant" refer to
terms used in other sections of the enclosed statute,
9. Please note the enclosure of 36-96.3 and the reference to
"reasonable modifications of existing premises occupied or to
be occupied by any such person if such modifications may be
necessary to afford such person full enjoyment of the
premises".
10. Code section 36-96.5 makes it "unlawful... for any person to
coerce, intimidate, threaten, or interfere with any person..,
protected by this chapter".
11. Code section 36-96.6 states "any restrictive covenant...
purporting to restrict occupancy..,on the basis of... elderliness
or handicap.., are declared to be void and contrary to the
publiC policy of this Commonwealth".
12. The appellants also refer Council to the enclosed federal
statute known as the National Fair Housing Act, 24 CFR
100.203 and 24 CFR 100.204 which is the basis for the
Virginia laws, as well as US Code Chapter 45, Subchapter I,
Section 3617.
13, The appellants have enclosed the "Accessibility" section from
the Secretary of the Interior's Standards for Rehabilitation
from which the city's Architectural Design Guidelines were
modeled. Included is a copy to a link titled "Issue: Local
Laws, Ordinances, and Regulations". The appellants would
like to point out that unlike the federal standards; the city
makes no attempt to deal with the "accessibility issue" or a
"reasonable accommodation policy" in any of its literature.
14. Enclosed is a copy of a consent agreement from a court case,
United States v. Colts Pride Homeowners Association, which
sums up the appellants belief that their request is a fair and
"reasonable modification". The appellants have been in
contact with Mr. Kent Willis, of the Virginia Chapter of the
ACLU, whose staff is reviewing their cause.
15. The appellants would like members of council to note the
enclosure of a December 1, 2006 letter to Paula, from Kevin
Earl, President of the Old Southwest, Inc. In it he states
"your care for the place you live supports the Mission of Old
Southwest and serves as an example for all to follow". While
the majority of the ARB members live outside the Old
Southwest it is interesting that the citizen's from within
presented the award, even after being told about the door
conflict.
16, The appellants pray that this council will weigh the evidence
before it; that it will overturn the ruling by the ARB; and that
it will agree that the French door will be accepted as a
reasonable modification, so the handicapped and elderly of
the household can have full enjoyment of the premises.

(a) It shall be unlawful for any person to refuse to permit, at the expense of a
handicapped person, reasonable modifications of existing premises, occupied or to
be occupied by a handicapped person, If the proposed modifications may be
necessary to afford the handicapped person full enjoyment of the premlses"of a
dwelling, In the case of a rental; the landlord may, where It Is reasonable to do so,
condition a modlftcatlon'to the condition that existed before the modification,
reasonable wear and tear excepted, The landlord may not Increase for handicapped
persons any customarily required security deposit, However, where It is necessary
In order to ensure with reasonable certainty that funds will be available to pay for
the restorations at the end of the tenancy, the landlord may negotiate as part of
such a restoration agreement a provision requiring that the tenant pay into an
interest bearing escrow account, over a reasonable period, a reasonable amount of
money not to exceed the cost of the restorations. The Interest In any such account
shall accrue to the benefit of the tenant,
(b) A landlord may condition permission for a modification on the renter providing a
reasonable description of the proposed modifications as well as reasonable
assurances that the work will be done in a workmanlike manner and that any
required building permits will be obtained,
(c) The application of paragraph (a) ofthls section may be Illustrated by the
following examples:
Example (1): A tenant with a handicap asks his or her landlord for permission to
install grab bars In the bathroom at his or her own expense, It is necessary to
reinforce the walls with blocking between studs In order to affix the grab bars, It Is
unlawful for the landlord to refuse to permit the tenant, at the tenant's own
expense, from making the modifications necessary to add the grab bars. However,
the landlord may condition permission for the modification on the tenant agreeing
to restore the bathroom to the condition that existed before the modification,
reasonable wear and tear excepted, It would be reasonable for the landlord to
require the tenant to remove the grab bars at the end of the tenancy. The landlord
may also reasonably require that the wall to which the grab bars are to be attached
be repaired and restored to Its original condition, reasonable wear and tear
excepted. However, It would be unreasonable for the landlord to require the tenant
to remove the blocking, since the reinforced walls will not Interfere In any way with
the landlord's Dr the next tenant's use and enjoyment of the premises and may be
needed by some future tenant.
Example (2): An applicant for rental housing has a child who uses a wheelchair.
The bathroom door In the dwelling unit Is too narrow to permit the wheelchair to
pass, The applicant asks the landlord for permIssion to widen the doorway at the
applicant's own expense, It Is unlawful for the landlord to refuse to permit the

accommodations
Home> Legal,Res,earch > HUD_Regulations
N.ext I ~J:.e'y'i.o.q~. I Ind~x
(a) It shall be unlawful for any person to refuse to make reasonable
accommodations In rules, policies, practlces, or services, when such
accommodations may be necessary to afford a handicapped person equal
opportunity to use and enjoy a dwelling unit, Including public and common use
areas, following examples:
Example (1): A blind applicant for rental housing wants live in a dwelling unit with a
seeing eye dog, The building has a no pets policy, It is a violation of Sec, 100,204
for the owner or manager of the apartment complex to refuse to permit the
applicant to live In the apartment with a seeing eye dog because, without the
seeing eye dog, the blind person will not have an equal opportunity to use and
enjoy a dwelling.
Example (2): Progress Gardens Is a 300 unit apartment complex with 450 parking
spaces which are available to tenants and guests of Progress Gardens on a first
come first served basis. John applies for housing In Progress Gardens. John Is
mobility Impaired and is unable to walk more than a short distance and therefore
requests that a parkIng space near hIs unit be reserved for him so he will not have
to walk very far to get to his apartment. It is a violation of Sec. 100,204 for the
owner or manager of Progress Gardens to refuse to make this accommodation.
Without a reserved space, John might be unable to live in Progress Gardens at all
or, when he has to park In a space far from his unit, might have great difficulty
getting from his car to his apartment unit. The accommodation therefore Is
necessary to afford John an equal opportunity to use and enjoy a dwelling. The
accommodation Is reasonable because It Is feasible and practical under the
circumstances.

Rehabilitation Act of 1973,
and the Americans with

Note: Although the work in this section is quite often an important aspect of
rehabilitation projects, it is usually not part of the overall process of preserving
character-defining features (identify, protect. repair, replace): rather, such work
is assessed for its potential negative impact on the building's historic character.
For this reason, partiCUlar care must be taken not to obscure, radically change,
damage, or deslroy characler-defining features in the process of rehabilitation
work to meet accessibility requirements,

Issue: Local Laws, Ordinances, and Regulations
Common Problem:
City governments may fall to consider reasonable modifications in local laws, ordi-
nances, and regullitions that would avoid discrimination against Individuals with dis-
abilities.
Result
Laws, ordinanccs, and rcgulations that appear to bc ncutral ollen adversely impact individu-
als with disabilities. For example, where a municipal zoning ordinance rcquircs a set-back of
12 fcct from the curb in the central busincss district, installing a ramp to cnsurc acccss for
people who use whcelchairs may be impermissible without a variance from thc city. Pcoplc
with disabilities are thereforc unable to gain access to businesses in the city.
Requirement:
'City governmcnts are required to make
reasonablc modifications to policies, prac-
tices, or procedures to prevent discrimination
on the basis of disability. Reasonable modifi-
cations can include modifications to local
laws, ordinances, and regulations that ad-
verllely impact people with disabilities. For
example. it may be a reasonable modification
to grant a variance for zoning requirements
and sctbacks, In addition, city,governments
may consider granting exceptions to the
enforcement of .'cnain laws as a form of
reasonable modification, For example, a
municipal ordinance banning aoimals from
city health clinics may nccd to be modificd
to allow a blind individual who uses a service
animal to bring the animal to a mental health
counseling session. 28 C.F.R. § 35.130(b )(7).
Issue: 9-1-1 Systems
City zoning policies wero changed to permit lhili
business to install a ramp at its onlranco.
Common Problem:
City governments do not provide direct and equai access to 9-1-1 systems, or similar
emergency response systems, for individuals who are deaf or hard of hearing and use
TTY's (TOO's or text telephones) or computer modems.
Result:
Pcople who arc deaf or hard of hearing, or those who have speech impairments, and use
TTY's or computer modems for telephone communication are unahle to access emergency
services (police, fire and ambulance) that arc occessary for health and safety. Wheo direct
emcrgeocy serviccs arc not available, emergency calls for individuals with disabilitics arc not
respondcd to appropriately, or in a timely manner, and in some instances, not at all.

Dear Mayor Harris and Members of City Council:
Subject:
Paula Anselmo Appeal of
Architectural Review Board Decision
637 Mountain Avenue, S.w, (H-2)
Background:
On August 29, 2006. Ms, Anne Beckett, Architectural Review Board Agent,
spoke with Keith Hummer about the recent replacement of a large front window
with French doors at his residence that he shares with the owner Paula Anselmo
at 647 Mountain Avenue, SW, This property is within the H-2, Neighborhood
Preservation District. Ms, Beckett advised Mr. Hummer that the door
replacement would require a Certificate of Appropriateness issued by the
Architectural Review Board (ARB),
On August 31,2006, Christopher Boehling, Code Enforcement Inspector, sent a
notice of zoning violation to Paula Anselmo for working in the H-2 District without
a Certificate of Appropriateness (see Letter: Attachment A),
On September 11, 2006, Ms. Anselmo filed an application for a Certificate of
Appropriateness for the replacement door, The ARB considered the application
on October 12, 2006 (See Application: Attachment B and Minutes: Attachment
C). Staff recommended denial because the request was not consistent with the
H-2 Architectural Guidelines for Basic Design Principles and for Windows and
Doors,
Mr. Hummer appeared before the ARB on behalf of Ms, Anselmo, He asserted
that the Federal Fair Housing Act allowed reasonable accommodation for
handicap accessibility and the work was done in anticipation of elderly residents
eventually living in the house.
Chairman Katz noted that the French doors he installed did not comply with ANSI
(American National Standards Institute) for handicap accessibility because the
door leaves are too narrow. She also noted the original front door entrance
meets minimum width requirements of 32" for handicap accessibility, Other ARB
members noted that the door was only half of the accessibility issue because
there are steps to the front porch, Mr. Hummer stated that the front yard was too
small for a handicap ramp. Staff researched the ANSI Standards referenced
above and found that doorways shall have a clear opening width of 32" minimum
and at least one of the active leaves of doorway shall comply with the minimum
opening (American National Standard-Accessible and Usable Buildings and
Facilities ICC/ANSI A 117 ,1-2003 Section 404 Door and Doorways),
A roll call vote was taken and the request to approve the application failed by a 0-
5 vote (Blanton and Harwood absent). Ms, Anselmo was formally notified of the
denial and of her right to appeal to City Council by letter dated October 13, 2006,
Ms, Anselmo filed an appeal of the Architectural Review Board's decision on
November 8, 2006 (Attachment D),
Considerations:
Section 36,2-331 (c) of the Zoning Ordinance provides:
"In the H-2 Overlay District, a Certificate of Appropriateness (see Section
36.2-530) shall be required for the erection of any new structure, the
demolition, moving, reconstruction, alteration, or restoration of any existing
structure or historic landmark, including the installation or replacement of
siding, or the reduction in the floor area of an existing building, including
the enclosure or removal of a porch,"
The H-2 Architectural Design Guidelines adopted by the ARB and endorsed by
City Council provide the following considerations for Basic Design Principles and
for Windows and Doors on historic buildings:
· Rehabilitation in the H-2 District should respect the architectural
character of a building and its surroundings,
· Maintain original materials and features that characterize a building
and make it unique,
· Repair deteriorated materials instead of replacing them,
· Windows and doors are especially important in rehabilitations, Their
size, shape, pattern, and architectural style not only provide
architectural character but also give a building much of its scale,
rhythm, and detail
· Periodic maintenance is necessary to prevent deterioration.
· Identify and keep the original materials and features of windows such
as size and shape,
· Do not enlarge or fill in windows or doors on any prominent side of a
building,
,
The main premise of the H-2 Architectural Guidelines is to maintain the historic
fabric that characterizes buildings and make them unique, This applies especially
to doors and windows, roofs. and siding, All fabric needs to be maintained
properly and preserved to add to the overall historic character of the
neighborhood.
Staff could not identify any applications to the ARB to replace a front window with
a door or set of doors or any previous appeals to City Council related to the
denial of a request to replace a front window with a door. The typical front
elevation of a historic house in the H-2 Historic District consists of a front door
flanked by a picture window and a small window to light the interior staircase,
Staff could not identify any other properties in the historic district that had
changed a front window to French doors, Neither could staff identify any French
doors on the front elevation of a historic house in the historic district.
Recommendation:
The Architectural Review Board recommends that City Council affirm its decision
to deny the issuance of a Certificate of Appropriateness.

Dear Property Owner(s):
Subject Property: 637 Mountain Ave. SW
Tax Map # 1120719
A recent site inspection of the above referenced property has revealed that there exists a
violation of the Code of the City of Roanoke (1979), as amended which reads as follows:
36.2-331 Historic Neighborhood Overlay District (H-2)
(c) Certificate of Appropriateness
In the H-2 Overlay District, a Certificate of Appropriateness (see Section 36.2-530)
shall be required for the erection of any new structure, the demolition, moving,
reconstruction, alteration, or restoration of any, existing structure or 'historic
landmark, including the installation or replacement of siding, or the reduction in the
floor area of an existing building, including the enclosure or removal of a porch. A
Certificate of Appropriateness shall not be required for ordinary maintenance, as
defined in Section 36.2-530(b)(4), or in-kind replacement with the same materials,
proportions, and design. The Zoning Administrator, in consultation with the Agent to
the Architectural Review Board, shall determine whether an activity requires a
Certificate of Appropriateness.
The NEW ENTRY French Doors on the front porch which replaced an existing original
window were installed without first receiving a C.O.A issued by the A. R. B.
In order to avoid further action by this department, this violation must be removed within
ten (10) days of receipt of this letter. You must either re-install the original window as
before, or request a Certificate of Appropriateness by filling out the enclosed form and
contacting Anne Beckett, A.R.B. Agent within this ten (10) day period. '
If you are aggrieved by this notice of zoning violation and order to comply with the
above-cited Code provision, you are hereby notified that you have the right to appeal this
order to the City of Roanoke's Zoning Appeals within 30 days of receipt of this letter.
The filing fee is $250 plus the cost of the legal advertisement for the public hearing.

3, Request from Paula Anselmo. represented by Keith Hummer. for a
Certificate of Appropriateness approvinq existinq window to door
replacement at 637 Mountain Avenue, S,W,
Mr. Keith Hummer appeared before the Board as representative for Ms. Paula
Anselmo, He stated that Ms. Anselmo received a letter from the City of Roanoke
that stated the French doors installed at 637 Mountain Avenue were
noncompliant. He said the doors were installed with the anticipation that his in-
laws, who were elderly and in a wheelchair. would be staying with them. He said
he had an existing permit for interior attic space renovations. He said Virginia
Law permitted reasonable modification for handicap accessibility, He said the
French doors he installed were a reasonable modification to the home. He said
he did not want to install an ADA handicap ramp because there was not enough
room in the front yard, He said he would be beyond the five foot setback
required if they installed the ramp. He said he could not use the rear gate for
handicap access because there was no room for parking in the rear or side
yards, He asked the Board for approval of the Certificate of Appropriateness
based on reasonable modifications for handicap accessibility.
Ms, Beckett said the doors did not meet the guidelines for Basic Design
Principles and Windows and Doors in the H2 district. She said the guidelines
stated to maintain windows or doors on any prominent side of buildings. She
recommended denial for the application.
Mr. Richert said he agreed with Ms, Beckett. He said the French doors did not
meet the guidelines. He said the Board did approve a Certificate of
Appropriateness for rear additions in 2006, He said he could not support the
application,
Ms. Katz said she had looked into the Fair Housing and State regulations for
handicap accessibility and they did allow alterations for accessibility. She said
ANSI standards required the entry door meet the 32" minimum opening.
Architectural Review Board Minutes
October 12, 2006
Page 3
Mr. Hummer said the fact of the matter was that he may not build the addition.
Mr. Schlueter asked Mr. Hummer what the permit he had was for.
Mr. Hummer said the permit was for interior renovations,
Mr. Schlueter asked Mr. Hummer how wide the existing front door was.
Mr. Hummer stated the door was 35 0/.." wide.
Mr. Schlueter stated that the requirements were 32" wide,
Ms, Katz said the existing front door was width compliant for handicap
accessibility, She said the French doors did not meet the minimum width for
handicap accessibility,
Mr. Hummer said the window opening was not original and it could have
originally been a door instead of a window, He said he checked around and no
one had historic pictures of the house.
Mr. Richert said the French doors were only half the handicap accessibility issue,
He said the application of installing the French doors from a window altered the
front of the building and the doors were not historically accurate. He said he
would vote no on the application,
Mr, Hummer stated the guidelines included storm doors and they were not
historically significant.
Ms, Botkin said regardless of access, the French doors did not meet the
guidelines and she would vote no on the application,
Ms, Anselmo extended an invitation to the Board to come to her home and look
at the gate access in the rear of the property. She said the gate slid open but
was not wide enough to get a wheelchair through, She also said she had four
dogs and could not risk one of the dogs getting out of the rear gate. She said
she did want to put up a handicap ramp because they were unattractive.
Mr. Stephenson said he agreed with Mr. Richert, He said Mr. Hummer was
satisfying half the access problem. He recommended Ms. Anselmo use a
temporary handicap ramp. He said he would not support the application,
Architectural Review Board Minutes
October 12, 2006

Mr. Hummer said the installation of the French doors seemed to be fair and
reasonable alterations, He said he did not consider the renovation out of the
normal.
Mr. Schlueter said handicap ramps did not require alterations to homes,
Mr. Hummer said presently his in-laws have to walk up the stairs in the front and
be carried in the home.
Mr. Stephenson asked Mr. Hummer if the gate could be fixed for temporary
handicapped access,
Mr, Hummer said there was no parking in the rear or on the side of the home,
There being no further discussion, the application was denied by a roll call vote
5-0, as follows:
Ms. Botkin- no
Mr. Richert-no
Mr. Schlueter- no
Mr. Stephenson- no
Ms, Katz- no

Mr. Bray appeared b re the Board on behalf of his wife, Francine Barish-
Stern Bray. He said he ted to install an exterior sign. He said the sign was
black print on a gold metall:ì kground, He said he felt the sign was elegant and
would be a great addition to the rket Building,
Ms, Beckett said the proposed sign did t meet the H1 Architectural guidelines
for signs. She said currently there were no nging signs at the Market Building,
She said she recommended denial of the appli
Mr. Bray said their storefront had a 30" inset. He said sign that the jewelers
in the Market Building had was 24" over the sidewalk. He s . he felt the sign
was tasteful. He said there were existing hanging signs at the rket Building,

Dear Mr. and Mrs. Hicks:
Your petition appealing a decision of the Architectural Review Board for a
Certificate of Appropriateness with regard to property located at 648 Day
Avenue, S. W., was before the Council of the City of Roanoke at a regular
meeting which was held on Monday, December 18, 2006.
Based upon evidence presented on December 18, 2006, Council voted to affirm
the decision of the Architectural Review Board on November 9, 2006, and that
no Certificate of Appropriateness be issued to replace a metal roof with an
asphalt shingle roof on a structure at 648 Day Avenue, S. W., as set forth in the
Petition for Appeal, on the grounds that the proposed installation is not of the
same design as the materials on the building and the proposed installation
would not maintain the architectural defining features of the building.
Sincerely,
Å~~'~~

Dear Mayor Harris and Members of City Council:
Subject:
Aubrey M. and Linda M. Hicks
Appeal of Architectural Review Board
Decision
648 Day Avenue, S.W. (H-2)
Background:
On October 3, 2006, Code Enforcement Officer Christopher Boehling
observed a metal roof being replaced with asphalt shingles at 648 Day
Avenue, S.w. without a Certificate of Appropriateness. The property is
located within the H-2, Neighborhood Preservation District, which
requires that a Certificate of Appropriateness be issued for any exterior
modifications to the building or property. The owners, Linda and Aubrey
Hicks, had replaced about 50 percent of the pressed metal shingles with
asphalt shingles. At 3:00 p.m. that day, Mr. Boehling posted a legal notice
to "Stop Work" on the property and advised Mr. Hicks to apply for a
Certificate of Appropriateness (see Photograph: Attachment A).
Mr. Hicks went to tile Municipal Building and spoke with Mr. Boehling,
Senior Planner Ian Shaw, and City Planner Maribeth Bendl. At 4:00 p.m.,
Mr. Boellling returned to 648 Day Avenue and posted a second "Stop
Work" order. Mr. Hicks was advised that corrective action would be to
discontinue the work and apply for a Certificate of Appropriateness.
On October 4, 2006, Mr. Boellling sent a notice of violation via certified
mail to Linda and Aubrey Hicks concerning the "Stop Work" order. Mr.
Hicks signed for the letter on October 5, 2006 (see Letter: Attachment B).
On October 10, 2006, Mr. Hicks filed an application for a Certificate of
Appropriateness to replace his metal shingles with 30-year architectural
shingles and provided a sample of the asphalt shingle. On October 11,
2006, Mr. Hicks called Ms. Beckett after her return to work and expressed
his concern about the notice of violation. Ms. Beckett advised that metal
roofs had a long life expectancy and there are good products on the
market Board members had recommended to repair metal roofs. Ms.
Beckett added that she and other Board members have inspected a
number of metal roofs and have found that most residential metal roofs
are repairable.
Ms. Beckett advised Mr. Hicks that replacing metal shingles with asphalt
shingles was not consistent with the H-2 Guidelines and that she could
not make a positive recommendation for the replacement. She further
stated that the Architectural Review Board had not approved a metal
shingle to asphalt shingle replacement in recent years because they all
were repairable.
On Saturday, October 14, 2006, several neighbors witnessed workers
continuing to remove the roof and contacted Ms. Beckett. Ms. Beckett
responded to Mr. Hicks' address and advised him that the work was in
violation of the stop-work order. He refused to stop work and Ms. Beckett
contacted the police to compel compliance with the order. It was
important that he stop work because the removal and disposal of the
historic metal shingles was irreversible. Ms. Joann Ellis, Code
Enforcement Officer, who happened to be addressing another issue the
same day, arrived at the request of one of the police officers. Ms. Ellis
advised Mr. Hicks that she intended to obtain a warrant if he continued
work to remove the roof in violation of the stop-work order. Mr. Hicks
then ceased removal of the roof.
The following Monday, Code Enforcement staff and Ms. Beckett consulted
with Andrew Stevens, Assistant Commonwealth Attorney. After reviewing
the case, the Assistant Commonwealth Attorney determined that Mr.
Hicks' repeated removal of the stop work order, combined with the
irreversible nature of the work, were egregious enough to justify
immediate action to compel him to stop work. General District Court
Judge Talevi concurred and issued a temporary injunction against the
owners on October 18.
On November 9, 2006, the Architectural Review Board (ARB) considered
the application (See Application: Attachment C and Minutes: Attachment
D). Staff recommended denial because the request was not consistent
with the H-2 Architectural Guidelines for Basic Design Principles and for
Roofs.
,
Discussion of the application focused on the prior condition of the roof
and the difficulty of evaluating the condition when it had been removed.
In discussing the application, Ms. Katz indicated the ARB was in a difficult
position of evaluating a project after it was nearly complete. Mr. Richert
added that the ARB considers the existing condition in making a decision
to allow replacement, but it was difficult to evaluate the condition of the
applicant's roof because most of it had been removed. Mr. Richert said
the proposed change to asphalt shingles was not consistent with the
ARB's guidelines.
Mr. Schlueter and Mr. Harwood questioned Mr. Hicks about previous
attempts to repair the roof. Mr. Schlueter noted that he had discussed
the roof situation with Mr. Hicks about two years ago and recommended
a rubberized coating to repair the roof. Mr. Hicks said that he could not
find anyone who used the coating Mr. Schlueter had recommended. Mr.
Hicks indicated that a contractor applied a metallic fiber coating about six
years ago.
Ms. Blanton said the photos she had seen showed the roof was in poor
condition and it is possible that it was not repairable. If it was not
repairable, the preference would be to replace the roof in-kind with
another metal roof, but she understood the cost can be 2 to 2)1, times the
cost of an asphalt shingle roof. She indicated that the ARB needed to
evaluate whether or not the replacement roof is appropriate.
Board members discussed the failure to follow the process for approval of
the roof replacement and that the board may have approved an
appropriate replacement material had Mr. Hicks applied to the board.
A roll call vote on the motion to approve the application failed by a 3-4
vote. Mr. Hicks was formally notified of the denial and of his right to
appeal to City Council by letter dated November 10, 2006. Mr. Hicks filed
an appeal of the Architectural Review Board's decision on November 14,
2006 (Attachment C).
On Friday, November 17, 2006, Mr. Boehling observed that the third Stop
Work order had been removed at 648 Day Avenue. On Monday, November
20, 2006, Mr. Boehling posted a fourth Stop Work order at 648 Day
Avenue, S.W.
Considerations:
The H-2 Architectural Design Guidelines adopted by the ARB and
endorsed by City Council provide the following considerations for Basic
Design Principles and for Roofs on historic buildings:
,
-'
· Rehabilitation in the H-2 District should respect the architectural
character of a building and its surroundings.
· Maintain original materials and features that characterize a building
and make it unique,
· Repair deteriorated materials instead of replacing them.
· Architectural styles are often identified by the form and material of
the roof, which is an important design feature,
· Poor roof maintenance contributes to the rapid deterioration of
historic building materials,
· Changing, removing, or adding materials to a roof can often alter or
destroy a building's character.
Retaining Existing Roofs
· Identify and keep the original materials of roofs,
· Do not remove historic roofing materials, such as metal, that are still
in good overall condition.
Maintenance
· Keep all pressed-metal roofs pained and all seams tightly crimped.
· Regularly inspect flashing at ridges, hips, valleys, chimneys, vents,
and dormers and replace when deteriorated.
· Avoid applying coatings to an entire roof. Such products may be
appropriate to repair localized problems, but their general use can
alter the roof's overall appearance.
· Do not apply paint or other coatings to historically uncoated roofing
materials.
Replacement and Substitute Materials
· When it is not feasible to replace pressed-metal roofs with the same
materials, explore the use of prefabricated, battened-metal roof
systems,
· Use substitute materials that retain the visual appearance of the
original roof and that are physically and chemically compatible,
Substitute materials should match the original in scale, color, texture,
and pattern.
Staff identified two applications since January 2000 from residential
property owners to the ARB to replace pressed metal shingle roofs with
asphalt shingled roofs. Both applications were later withdrawn and the
owners repaired their roofs.
Recommendation:
The Architectural Review Board recommends that City Council affirm its
decision to deny the issuance of a Certificate of Appropriateness.

4, Request from Aubrev M, Hicks for a Certificate of Appropriateness for an
asphalt- shinQled replacement roof at 648 Dav Avenue. S,W,
Mr. Aubrey Hicks appeared before the Board and stated that he was the
homeowner at 648 Day Avenue, S,W, He said he had a very short statement in
rebuttal to the background letter that he was sent with the package telling him
about the meeting, He said he wanted to read the letter and would answer any
questions anyone had. He said the letter was in response to the letter he
received telling him about the ARB meeting. He said the letter contained several
misleading statements, He said first of all, he only violated the stop work order
once, He said the second discrepancy was the color of the shingles on over 50%
of the roof was onyx black and was a 30-year architectural shingle, not gray as
stated in the paperwork, He said at the time the inspector wrote the stop work
order, there were two sides and one dormer covered in new shingles, He said
that was closer to 50% than 40%, He said he felt like those errors would serve
no other purpose than to show that he had tried not to do what was right. He
said he had made mistakes and would be the first one to admit that, but he
wanted those mistakes noted on the record, He said since it already said in the
letter that the recommendation was to deny his request, he would like it noted so
when it went to City Council, the accurate response would be there, He said the
Board's recommendation of a half-and-half roof was not acceptable to him or his
neighbors, He said he didn't understand how he could re-roof something and
paint it black to match the shingles, He said he thought that would be one of the
most horrible things to do and would ruin the value of his home, He said if
everyone felt strongly about a metal roof needing to go back on his home, it was
an expense he could not afford and if the Board found it so that he needed to
convert the roof to an architectural shingle, then he would gladly accept any
grants to replace it with metal. He said he loved metal roofs, the sound of them
when it rains, unless he had buckets and pails and was bailing water and
throwing it out the window because of a tropical storm or hurricane. He said he
would be happy to answer any questions anyone has,
Ms, Beckett said staff recommended denial of the application because it did not
meet the guidelines for Basic Design Principles or the guidelines for roofs, She
Architectural Review Board Minutes
November 9, 2006
Page 6
said if the applicant was not willing for a compromise, she would recommend
denial of the application as it stood.
Ms, Katz said that it was really tough when the Board knew that Mr. Hicks knew
better, She said Mr. Hicks knew he should have come before the ARB to begin
with and he just started work, She said he left the Board so little leeway in
helping him do the right thing,
Mr. Hicks said as he explained to Ms, Beckett, right after the stop work order was
issued while she was on vacation, he thought the people doing the work had
done the appropriate things, He said now he knew that they had not. He said he
called Ms, Beckett willing to try to make things right but he did not have the
financial resources to re-metal the roof, He said that would be additional $15,000
he did not have, He said as far as leaving half the roof shingled and the other
half new metal and painting it black to match the shingles, he did not see where it
was acceptable,
Mr. Richert said based on the sequence of events, whether there was one or two
work orders, the fact that the Board was not given an opportunity to give an
evaluation of the condition and repairability of the existing roof, and the fact that
the replacement roof was not consistent with the guidelines, did things that the
Board would normally not accept. He said there was no way that he could vote
to validate Mr, Hick's actions.
Mr. Hicks said he would state his case, He said he had neighbors that walked
around and did nothing more than snitch on other neighbors and stood in front of
his house and pointed at the roofers, and 30 minutes later had a building
inspector with a stop work order at his property, He said that was not right. He
said he was threatened with arrest over a civil matter and understood that he
could be fined, He said after talking with Ms. Beckett and she basically reiterated
the same thing that Mr, Richert just did, he said he no choice, He said he had a
wife and two grandchildren that stayed with him and had to make sure they had a
secure roof over their heads, He said he had talked with people in the past, had
photographs and turned in a piece of the old roof. He said he talked with Mr.
Schlueter a few years ago and was referred to him by a realtor friend of his, He
said Mr. Schlueter had really good ideas about saving old roofs, He said when it
got to the point where a small shower would flood his upstairs he had to do
something, He said if everyone else on the Board was concurrent with Mr.
Richert, he wanted the Board to give him his paperwork so he could go file with
the City Council, He said he did want to waste anybody else's time,

Mr. Schlueter asked Mr. Hicks if he took any of the alternatives to repair the roof
a couple of years ago,
Mr. Hicks said yes, He said he and Mr, Schlueter talked about a new product
coming out on the market a couple of years ago, He said it was a rubberized
type of roofing that went on like paint and sealed even badly deteriorated roofs,
He said he was never able to fjnd that product. He said he paid a contractor to
put a coating on it which was not recommended either, but he thought if it got him
a few years until things were better, he would pursue the roof,
Mr. Schlueter asked Mr, Hicks if he did the things recommended to him or had
someone come and do something that was not correct.
Mr. Hicks said as the Board could tell from a photograph presented, that there
was a coating on the metal. He said he paid a guy to come out and put a
supposed waterproof coating on the roof and it worked for about the first two or
three thunderstorms, He said the problem with the condition of the roof was that
it was so old and uneven that it was like a roller coaster. He said he has had
people come out and try to tap the roof down, seal it and nothing has worked,
He said he was doing the best he could, He said when he took the house over it
had been rental property for five years, He said his house was the first house on
the block to make any kind of change. He said he was doing the best he could
and if that was not okay, he would take it to City Council.
Mr. Harwood asked Mr. Hicks if he had a roofing contractor submit a quote or
take a look at the roof in terms of putting on the liquid EPD.
Mr. Hicks said he never found anyone that dealt with that. He said what was put
on the roof was a metallic colored, fiber coating which did not work at all.
Mr. Harwood asked Mr. Hicks how many years ago that was,
Mr, Hicks said that it was applied to the roof about six years ago,
Ms, Blanton said she was not on the bus tour and did not get to see the roof.
She said Ms. Beckett had correctly stated their standards that the Board
encourages retaining and maintaining historic materials where repairing them
was possible, She said she was sorry that he did not come before the Board
when he had gotten in touch with Mr. Schlueter. She said she hoped that people
knew they could also get in touch with Anne Beckett because she was a good
resource for alternative ways to repair. She asked Mr, Hicks if they were at the
Architectural Review Board Minutes

beginning of the project and he had not started replacing the roof and provided
photographs, would the roof be repairable, She said if things were beyond repair
and could not be salvageable their first choice would be to repair and replace it
in-kind with another metal shingle roof, She said the cost was 2 to 2 Y, times as
expensive as the asphalt shingle roof. She asked the Board if the roof could be
repaired,
Ms, Katz said it was hard to tell from just sitting on the bus, She said it was only
one side left and was really hard to tell one way or the other.
Mr. Richert said he did not know,
Mr, Hicks said that was the best side, He said the guys doing the roof prioritized
where the swimming pools were on the inside of the house, He said they had
kiddy swimming pools in the attic to retain the water. He said looking back, it
started out as an oversight and had gotten way out of proportion, He said he had
people show up on the weekends with five police officers and were trying to take
him to jail for protecting his house, He said something needs to stop,
Mr. Schlueter asked Mr. Hicks the name of the roofing company,
Mr. Hicks said that was not necessary,
Mr, Schlueter said he was interested because they were working on Saturday,
Mr. Hicks said that Anne Beckett was working also,
Ms, Botkin said that she agreed with Mr. Richert's and Ms, Blanton's comments.
She said that Ms, Beckett was not working on that Saturday, She said they did
have the City cleanup that day and that was how that matter came before the
Board again,
Mr. Hicks said it came before the Board again because right after he got the stop
work order from the Building Inspector, he came down to City Hall and got the
appropriate forms, filled them out and turned them in. He said when Ms, Beckett
got back from vacation she told him that it was no way it would be approved. He
said he was told by the police that it was a civil matter and he could be fined, He
said he would pay the fine if it protected his house he had worked on for thirteen
years, He said Ms. Beckett showed up and the first words out of her mouth were
did she know him, and the second words were he was in big trouble, and would
be going to jail that day and she was going to make an example of him,

Ms, Botkin said regardless, he started work on the roof without approval from the
Board.
Mr. Hicks said he understood that and had apologized for that. He said when the
roof matter was resolved he would not be a problem again, He said he was held
hostage because he could not give the house away because he owed money on
it and he could not sell it because anyone that would buy a house with half a roof,
was not mentally competent enough to sign a contract. He said eventually it
would leak through and he would lose everything he had,
Ms, Blanton said they needed to get back to the process in place, She said he
had a historic roof that was character defining to the house. She said the
photographs showed that the roof was in pretty bad shape and possibly repairing
it was not an option and wanted to move into the next stage of whether or not he
was allowed to replace it and with what.
Mr. Hicks said he apologized, He said there were houses on both sides of him
that had architectural shingles,
Ms, Katz said if Mr. Hicks had gone through the proper process and brought the
issue to the Board before, the Board may have approved it. She said it was an
architectural grade shingle which they had approved in the past. She said the
color was appropriate to the house also,
Mr. Hicks said he apologized for putting the cart ahead of the horse.
Ms, Katz said that was the second time,
Mr. Hicks said the first time he did not know, He said the second time he thought
it had been taken care of by the people he was paying to do it. He said he was
still sitting there with a roof that, when it was finished, would complement his
house and his neighbors' houses, He said he was willing to work within reason,
Mr. Richert stated that was off of the subject and suggested the Board vote,
The application was denied by a roll call vote of 4-3, as follows:
Ms, Botkin- no
Mr, Harwood- no
Ms, Blanton- yes

Mr. Ed Armentrout with Budget Signs appeared before the Board and stated that
there were three items as part of the application, He said the first was for
dimensional letters mounted flat on the face of the building in the same location
as existing aluminum sign that is to be removed, He said the second item was
for a black fabric awning and the third was for painting the building, He said he
could speak for the first two items, He said the dimensional letters were simple
letters, He said they were flat mounted on the building and are pin mounted into
the building with minimal penetration. He said the black awning was high quality
and tastefully done, He said he understood that the staff had objections because
of obscuring the transoms, He said it was a very attractive, fabric awning and the
painting would highlight some of the features of the building.
Giuseppe Pugliese appeared before the Board and said he would be painting the
front.
Ms, Katz asked Mr. Pugliese if he had the paint chips with him,
Mr. Pugliese said no,
Mr. Schlueter asked Mr. Pugliese if he was painting the whole building,
Mr. Pugliese said yes. He said he wanted to do black to match the awning, He
said he wanted to make it look nice,
Ms, Katz asked if the top bar over the door was painted or not.
Mr. Pugliese said the door would be painted black and the rest would be cream
