The 16th day of June, 2008.
No. 38141-061608.
A RESOLUTION addressing Virginia's transportation funding crisis.
WHEREAS, the package of transportation taxes and fees enacted by the
2007 Session of the General Assembly to address statewide maintenance and
regional transportation needs failed because the Virginia Supreme Court
invalidated the Northern Virginia regional fees and because the 2008 General
Assembly repealed the abusive driver fee program;
WHEREAS, the City of Roanoke has growing transportation needs and
costs ranging from: 1) maintaining aging streets with complex adjacent utilities
and high traffic volumes, 2) meeting demand for added public transportation,
and 3) the need for increased intercity passenger rail service, all requiring
additional state funds;
WHEREAS, the Commonwealth Transportation Board is ready to approve a
$1.1 billion reduction in the official six-year forecast, forcing a forty-four
percent cut in primary, urban roads and secondary roads construction;
I
WHEREAS, the impact of this reduction on the Salem district will be a loss
of $25.5 million in FY2008, $38 million in FY2009, escalating to $56.3 million
in FY2014. The City of Roanoke and surrounding localities cannot and will not
close this funding gap;
WHEREAS, the costs for the City of Roanoke to maintain its older streets
continue to rise annually;
WHEREAS, transit ridership is growing, and needed transit improvements,
expansions, and escalating diesel costs require additional state operating and
capital funds to maintain and meet the added demand for service;
WHEREAS, the public wants and needs more frequent intercity passenger
rail, which requires added state capital and operating funds;
WHEREAS, the Governor's proposal would increase funding for Urban road
funds;
I
I
I
I
365
WHEREAS, the City of Roanoke and its affiliated municipal organizations,
the Virginia Municipal League and the Virginia First Cities Coalition, have
advocated for a transportation funding model that is adequate, sustainable, and
dedicated with non-general funds to support Virginia's transportation network;
and
WHEREAS, Governor Timothy M. Kaine has called the General Assembly
into special session on June 23 to address these funding matters;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Council of the City of
Roanoke does hereby support efforts of the Governor and General Assembly to
act swiftly and decisively to approve legislation that will address the
transportation funding crisis at the statewide, regional, and local levels; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that such legislation should recognize that it is
the Commonwealth's responsibility to impose new taxes and fees; that funding
purposes must be restricted to adequately maintaining transportation
infrastructure, ensuring safe roads statewide, relieving traffic congestion,
maintaining and increasing transit service, expanding intercity passenger rail,
promoting economic development throughout the state, and providing multi-
model options; and that providing consumer choices, including the use of tolls
on new transportation facilities, is part of the solution to the transportation
crisis.

made by the City, any such officer or any such agent) or by reason of any
inaccuracy, error or omission with respect thereto or in such use; and any
inaccuracy, error or omission with respect to such numbers shall not constitute
cause for failure or refusal by the successful bidder or purchaser to accept
delivery of and pay for the Bonds in accordance with the terms of its bid. All
expenses in connection with the assignment and printing of CUSIP numbers on
the Bonds shall be paid by the City; provided, however, that the CUSIP Service

IN THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ROANOKE, VIRGINIA,
The 15th day of September, 2008.
Resolution No. 38240-091508.
A RESOLUTION authorizing the issuance of not to exceed$10,850,OOO.00
General Obligation School Bonds of the City Of Roanoke, Virginia, Series 2008 B, to be
sold to The Virginia Public School Authority and providing for the form and details thereof.
WHEREAS, the City Council (the "Council") of the City of Roanoke, Virginia (the
"City"), has determined that it is necessary and expedient to borrow an amount not to
exceed $10,850,000.00 and to issue its general obligation school bonds for the purpose of
financing certain capital projects for school purposes; and
WHEREAS, the City held public hearings, duly noticed, on August 18, 2008, and
May 21, 2007, on the issuance of the Bonds (as defined below) in accordance with the
requirements of Section 15.2-2606, Code of Virginia 1950, as amended (the "Virginia
Code"); and
WHEREAS, the Bond Sale Agreement (as defined below) shall indicate that
$10,850,000.00 is the amount of proceeds requested (the "Proceeds Requested") from the
Virginia Public School Authority (the "VPSA") in connection with the sale of the Bonds; and
552
WHEREAS, VPSA's objective is to pay the City a purchase price for the Bonds
which, in VPSA's judgment, reflects the Bonds' market value (the "VPSA Purchase Price
Objective"), taking into consideration of such factors as the amortization schedule the City
has requested for the Bonds relative to the amortization schedules requested by other
localities, the purchase price to be received by VPSA for its bonds and other market
conditions relating to the sale of VPSA's bonds; and
1
WHEREAS, such factors may result in the Bonds having a purchase price other
than par and consequently, if the maximum authorized principal amount of the Bonds set
forth in section 1 below does not exceed the Proceeds Requested by at least the amount
of any discount, the purchase price to be paid to the City, given the VPSA Purchase Price
Objective and market conditions, will be less than the Proceeds Requested.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Councif of the City of
Roanoke, Virginia:
1. Authorization of Bonds and Use of Proceeds. The Council hereby
determines that it is advisable to contract a debt and issue and sell its general obligation
school bonds in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $10,850,000.00 (the
"Bonds") for the purpose of financing certain capital projects for school purposes as 1
described in Exhibit B. The Council hereby authorizes the issuance and sale of the Bonds
in the form and upon the terms established pursuant to this Resolution.
2. Sale of the Bonds. It is determined to be in the best interest of the City to
accept the offer of VPSA to purchase from the City, and to sell to VPSA, the Bonds at a
price, determined by VPSA to be fair and accepted by the Mayor and the City Manager,
or either of them that is substantially equal to the Proceeds Requested, except that the
Bonds may be sold for a purchase price not lower than 95% of the Proceeds Requested
if issuing the Bonds in the maximum principal amount authorized by Section 1 of this
Resolution is insufficient, given the VPSA Purchase Price Objective and market
conditions, to generate an amount of proceeds substantially equal to the Proceeds
Requested. The Mayor, the City Manager, or either of them and such other officer or
officers of the City as either may designate are hereby authorized and directed to enter
into a Bond Sale Agreement, dated as of October 10, 2008, with VPSA providing for the
sale of the Bonds to VPSA. The agreement shall be in substantially the form submitted

be used to purchase the Bonds, and provided further that the true interest cost of the
Bonds does not exceed five and fifty one-hundredths percent (5.50 %) per annum. The

of VPSA. The City Manager is hereby authorized and directed to accept changes in the
