LEA, SR. Fax: (540) 853 -1145 Mayor Email: clerk ©manokevs.gov April 17, 2017 The Honorable Mayor and Members of the Roanoke City Council Roanoke, Virginia Dear Mayor Lea and Members of Council: Council Members William D. Bestpuch Michelle L. Dykstra Raphael E. Ray" Ferris John A. Garland Anita J. Price David B. Trickle This is to advise you that I will not be present at the 2:00 p.m. and 7:00 p.m. sessions of Council on Monday, April 17, 2017. Best wishes for a successful meeting. Si cerely, David B. Trinkle Council Member DBT /ctw April 17, 2107 Roanoke City Council Meeting. Opposition to the Proposed Recycling Fee Mr. Mayor and Members of the Council: My name is: Joseph E Elligson. My address is 4615 Norwood Street SW, Roanoke 24018 1 am opposed to the suggested Recycling Fee. UIDI& u- L Page 01 of 02 Roanoke City Executive Summary, A Vision of the future, 2020: states "Solid waste management and recycling will be a model program with participation from all citizens in the City and in other jurisdictions" In March 2016, the manager of the City's solid waste and recycling indicates, of the households receiving collection services, only 40% participate in the recycling program. The year 2020 is not far off and this City has a long way to go to meet the 2020 Vision of participation by ALL Citizens. Roanoke's Recycling Program makes a significant contribution to reducing damage to the environment. Recycling is an act of environmental good that all citizens can perform at home. Imposing a Recycling Fee will have a detrimental impact on the City's efforts to increase participation in the recycling program. The fee will kill the City's 2020 Vision of the Future. Instead of working with citizens to improve participation, the fee will be a penalty. Before imposing a Recycling Fee, I suggest the Council look closely at every Budget line. As Manufacturing Engineering Manager in five States, I never saw a Departmental Budget that could not be reduced. In fact, reducing Departmental Budgets often created opportunities to improve performance by discovering new methods to deliver services. Recently, the city agreed to spend money buying a railway right of way to continue expanding the Greenway. The Greenway is paved in asphalt, a petroleum product. The Greenway requires maintenance using chemicals and petroleum powered equipment. Recycling Program does not jeopardize the operations of Businesses as the Greenway has done to Walker Machine & Foundry. Science and Industry has developed new metals, plastics and chemicals. They sell these materials to us and convinced us to simply discard them. Industries have off loaded the responsibility of disposal onto municipalities. There are programs to hold manufacturers of these products responsible for the life cycle of their products. Local governments should not have to pay for the disposal for no -value materials. To avoid a Recycling Fee, I suggest the City actively participate in these programs and carefully review every budget line item. Thank you for your consideration. Attachment: (1) April 17, 2017 Page 02 of 02 ATTACHMENT: Opposition to the Proposed Recycling Fee Joseoh E Elligson Some Programs to consider participation, to improve recycling and hold manufacturers responsible for the end of life disposal costs: The Closed Loop Fund, began by a group of large corporations, provides financial support for projects that help local governments improve recovery efforts. The Recycling Partnership is a private - public national organization providing educational materials and technical assistance. The Product Stewardship Institute is committed to reducing environmental impacts of consumer products across their lifecycle. The institute focuses on programs to hold manufacturers responsible for recycling their products. When manufacturers are held responsible for managing their products end of life cycles, they often discover ways to make changes for more environmentally friendly designs. The Southeast Recycling Development Council is focused on uniting industry and government organizations to implement sustainable recycling. Members have access to program tools. Perhaps Roanoke City is involved with these programs. If so why not inform the public regarding the initiatives obtained and implemented? Joseph E Elligson 4615 Norwood Street SW Roanoke, VA 24018 patchesike@aol.com Impact + Amplify Positive responses from Council will enable us to move forward. Please "move the question" to get an answer to our requests for partnership with the city administration. No answer amounts to a "No" answer. I don't believe that is what is intended...( ?) bear Sherman, Before the Council's retreat in September, we asked for four specific actions. We understand that retreat time was limited. But someone needs to take leadership in responding." Action: Budget or help to secure funding for an economic impact (cost - benefit) analysis of "The Barrens" ]Virginia Tech's Office of Economic Development would be a credible and appropriate partner.] Action: Collaborate in and support Roanoke's African - American community in Working with Virginia Tech to "create the (inclusive) future ". Action: budget or help to secure funding for a study of preserving, restoring and enhancing hydrologic functioning in the Lick Run Watershed. Action: The Upper Roanoke River Basin is the only part of Virginia that does not have a special development relationship with the federal government. (Everywhere else is part of the Chesapeake Bay Program, the Appalachian Regional Commission, the Tennessee Valley Authority, or the Albemarle - Pamlico National Estuary Program) We have lost out on millions of dollars of federal money. Join or support our request to enable a creation of a Lick Run National Urban Demonstration Watershed. Our request for partnership ended with these questions. If the city doesn't support this proactive program to lift the people of North Roanoke, does it have alternative plan? Who is responsible for conceptualizing, formulating and implementing it? We want to work with you. Importantly, we want to work, not be becalmed by indecision or uncertainty about Council's ability and intentions. Tom Cain Executive Director, Impact + Amplify and the Lick Run Watershed Association, Inc. Chairman, Economic Development Committee, Roanoke Branch NAACP and SCLC (540) 345 -6579 http //cedarrundaylightinci.weebly.com/ CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT To: Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council Meeting: April 17, 2017 Subject: Public Hearing Request to Authorize Acquisition of Real Property Interests by Eminent Domain for the Cove Road /Dansbury Drive Stormwater Drainage Improvements Project (CM 17- 00031) Background: The Cove Road /Dansbury Drive Stormwater Drainage Improvements Project ( "Project ") is a proposed City project for the purpose of making storm -water drainage infrastructure improvements in the Miller Court, Arrowood and Westview Terrace water urnoffaThelsoe neighborhoods the Cove dsuDffer from Drive lack of storm drain systems evidenced by standing water on road pavement and private properties at the intersection of Cove Road, N.W. and Dansbury Drive, N.W. Stormwater runoff from public right of way contributes to flooding of private properties. Constructing the proposed storm drain system along this corridor would correct known drainage problems in these neighborhoods. Pursuant to Ordinance No.40337- 090815, adopted by City Council on the 8'h day of September, 2015, City Council authorized City staff to acquire the necessary property interests needed for the Project from private property owners at fair market value, using bona fide, and good faith efforts at negotiation. These property interests consisted of permanent drainage easements and temporary construction easements. While City staff acquired the necessary real property interests for the majority of the Project, City staff from the ws pr unable acquire opertyowne ssshown below necessary needed espite making reasson ble t Project bona fide efforts to acquire the property at reasonable and just compensation. Property Owner Address Official Tax Map Real Property No. Interest Needed Variable Width Thomas E. and 3807 Cove Road, 6401001 Public Drainage Delois Hubbard N.W. Easement, Containing 1,655 sa. ft. Hale 3727 Cove Road, 6401121 20 uDlIc N.W. Drainage Easement, containing 3,949 sq. ft. and a 10' Temporary construction Easement, containing 2,562 sa. ft. In order to commence and complete the Project, it is necessary for the City to acquire the property interests described above from the owners. A finding by City Council that the Project constitutes a public use, and a public hearing, are both required under state law before the use of eminent domain may be authorized. If City Council authorizes the City to exercise the use of eminent domain to acquire such rights, City staff will first make another bona fide, good faith attempt to further negotiate the acquisition of such interests with the above property owners, before initiating any eminent domain proceedings. Recommended Action: Authorize the scheduling and advertisement of a public hearing for public comment on May 15, 2017, at 7:00 p.m., or as soon thereafter as the matter may be heard, or at such later date and time as the City Manager shall determine, for City Council to consider whether the Project constitutes a public use with the meaning of Section 1 -219.1 of the Code of Virginia (1950) as amended, and whether eminent domain may be used by the City to acquire the real estate interests needed for the Project.

D'Ardenne, CGM, PWM, Stormwater Manager Josephus M. Johnson - Koroma, P.E., Civil Engineer II Cassandra L. Turner, Economic Development Specialist °~ CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT To: Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council Meeting: April 17, 2017 Subject: Public Hearing Request to Consider an Amendment to the Transient Occupancy Tax to Apply Such Tax to Homestay Establishments and All Bed and Breakfast Establishments (CM 17- 00033) Background: Presently, the City imposes a transient occupancy tax at the rate of eight percent (8.00 %) of the total amount paid for room rental by or for such transient to any hotel. Section 32 -240, Code of the City of Roanoke (1979), as amended. Pursuant to City Code Section 32 -239, a hotel is defined as "[a]ny public or private hotel, inn, hostelry, tourist home or house, motel, roominghouse or other lodging place within the city offering lodging for five (5) or more persons at any one (1) time, and the owner and operator thereof, who, for compensation, furnishes lodging to any transient." Furthermore, a transient is la]ny person who, for any period of not more than ninety (90) consecutive days, either at his own expense or at the expense of another, obtains lodging or the use of any space in any hotel, for which lodging or use of space a charge is made." Under current City Code, homestay establishments and certain bed and breakfast establishments are not subject to the local transient occupancy tax because they do not offer lodging to five or more persons. With the expansion of AirBnB and other similar operations, these activities provide lodging in competition with other establishments that pay this local tax. The proposed amendment to Section 32 -239 would add " homestay establishments" and "bed and breakfast establishments," as these terms are defined in the City's Zoning Ordinance, to the definition of "Hotel," and reduce the number of transient lodgers from 5 or more to 1 or more. In order to amend the Transient Occupancy Tax, Section 58.1 -3007 requires Council to hold a public hearing on the matter because the amendment proposes to increase an existing local tax by expanding the number of establishments that will be subject to the tax. Recommended Action: Authorize the scheduling and advertisement of a public hearing for public comment on May 15, 2017, at 7:00 p.m., or as soon thereafter as the matter may be heard, or at such later date and time as the Acting City Manager shall determine, for City Council to consider whether to amend Section 32 -239 et seq, Code of the City of Roanoke (1979), as amended, to apply the local transient occupancy tax to any establishment that offers lodging to 1 or more persons at any one time, including homestay establishments and all bed and breakfast establishments.

Background The Authority recognizes one of the keys to sound financial management is the development of a systematic way to fund planned capital projects and on -going maintenance programs. The Authority believes it is equally important to establish the planned expenditures of associated funding for its capital projects and maintenance programs on a pay -as- you -go basis whenever possible. The National Advisory Council on State and Local Budgeting (NACSLB) has issued guidelines representing standards of excellence in governmental budgeting that include the preparation of policies and plans for capital asset acquisition, maintenance, and replacement (Principle 2; Element 5; Practice 5.2). This policy addresses this standard. II. Purpose ' This policy will provide for the establishment and the planned funding level of maintenance and improvement reserve accounts for planned expenditures over a short-term planning period of five (5) years and a long -term planning period of ten (10 +) years or more. Each individual ' account provides for a separate funding purpose to be designated as either `restricted" or "unrestricted" accounts. Restricted accounts must be used solely for their intended purpose as required by regulatory statute, contractual obligation, or operating permit conditions. ' Unrestricted funds are intended for planned capital and maintenance purposes, but may be periodically used by the Authority temporarily, for not more than six (6) months, to provide emergency funding for the Authority's operations, if needed. Reserve Accounts maybe utilized ' to fund the same or separate projects as deemed necessary for supporting the mission of providing quality programs and facilities necessary to serve the Authority's Member Communities of Roanoke County, the City of Roanoke, the Town of Vinton and their residents and businesses of ' the Roanoke Valley. III. Policy Guidelines for Reserve Fund Accounts A. The Authority will maintain reserve accounts and an initial beginning balance of funds will be deposited into accounts as identified for the current fiscal year. B. Annual funding transfers will occur in twelve (12) equal monthly transfers from revenues received by the Authority and as budgeted for the current fiscal year. C. Ongoing expenditures from the funds will occur as budgeted for the current fiscal year as costs are accrued. D. Planned deposits to the funds are calculated sufficient to maintain the desired fund balances with a positive fund balance, at a minimum, for any given fiscal year during the long -term planning period. RESERVE FUNDS — 2017 -2018 Roanoke Valley Resource AWa tY RESERVE POLICY F. planned expenditures of the funds am calculated sufficient to provide cash funding for all planned capital projects and maintenance projects for any given fiscal year during the long -term planning period. F. Any end of year operating surplus and/or interest earnings may be allocated to one or more account, as determined by the Authority's Board of Directors. G. An internal review of the account allocations and funding levels by a professional engineer familiar with best management practices of solid waste operations and facilities will occur annually to ensure the priorities are consistent with the goals of the Authority and to ensure the funding levels are adequate. H. An external, third party review of the account allocations and funding levels by a professional engineer, familiar with best management practices of solid waste operations and facilities, will occur every five (5) years to ensure the funding levels are adequate. Account Definitions The Landfill Closure Fund (Unrestricted) provides a reserve for the costs of capping completed areas of the landfill and at the end of the landfill's useful life, to completely close any remaining area, install all monitoring and collection systems and perform all post - closure care activities per regulatory requirements. The Equipment Replacement Fund (Unrestricted) provides funds for the future purchases, regularly scheduled replacement of major operating equipment, and any uninsured risk, in an orderly fashion as to minimize annual operating costs, maximize any trade -in or surplus value, and to provide for the best overall purchasing value. The Ground Water Protection Fund (Restricted) provides funds to address any environmental effects the operation of the landfill may have on the surrounding area. The fund also serves to assist in complying with post closure and corrective action requirements of state and federal financial assurance regulations. The Host Community Fund (Restricted) provides funds for the construction and maintenance of public improvements to Authority property within the Host Community, as requested by the Host Community, and as approved in a formal public improvement plan. The Property Protection Fund (Restricted) provides funds for the one -time payments under the Property Protection policy to property owners within the Host Community for any actual, realized decline in property values as a result of their relatively close proximity to the Smith Gap Regional Landfill. The Site Development Fund (Unrestricted) provides funds for the construction of subsequent phases of the Smith Gap landfill, as necessary, to provide ongoing landfill disposal capacity. RESERVE FUNDS 2017 -2018 Roerwke Valley Resource Authority RESERVE POLICY The Capital Improvement Fund (Unrestricted) was established to be used for various capital maintenance items and new capital projects anticipated for the ten -year planning period. Projects may be amended as solid waste operations and the industry in general continues to evolve. The Rutrouah Road Landfill (RRLF) Post Closure Fund (Restricted) provides funding for the Authority's contractual obligation to provide for the ongoing post closure care of the closed Rutrough Road Landfill. This fund is projected to be depleted from the capital expenditures associated with the construction of a new force main and sewer line that will ultimately decrease annual operating expenses. Accordingly, starting in FY' 18, the post closure care responsibilities will be funded by our annual revenues from the operating budget and the associated costs will be budgeted as ongoing line -item expenditures in the general annual operating budget. Upon exhaustion of funds, this reserve fund will be closed and eliminated from future budget considerations. The Continr_encv Fund (Unrestricted) provides fund+;ng to stabilize year -to -year rate adjustments and to provide a source of funding for any unforeseen increases in expenses or decreases in revenue that would otherwise cause a negative balance for the Authority's operating funds. V. Reporting The Treasurer will track reserve account deposits and expenditures on a monthly basis. A monthly report will be sent to the Chief Executive Officer, the Authority's Secretary, which will be included on the Board of Directors' agenda for review at all regularly scheduled meetings. The Treasurer will also ensure that all expenditures have been through the appropriate approval process. The Chief Executive Officer will provide an annual report to the Board of Directors as ' to the adequacy of the funding levels of each respective reserve account. 1 1 RESERVE FUNDS ' L— 2017 -2n18 ANNUAL REVIEW Roanoke Valley Resource Authority AND RESERVE FUNDS ANNUAL REVIEW RVRA RESERVE FUNDS PLAN & REPORT FY 2017 - 2018 ' The Roanoke Valley Resource Authority reviewed its replacement reserve requirements as outlined per the Authority's "Financial and Reserves Policy" and has determined the adequacy of the funding plan ' as submitted herein. The Authority, in its review, has defined adequacy to mean that sufficient funding, if funded as scheduled, exists in amounts equivalent to or exceeding the anticipated expenditures during a short-term period (next five subsequent fiscal years) and a long -term period (next ten subsequent fiscal ' years), with the understanding that certain amounts are to be borrowed, if needed, as indicated in the expenditure plan. The Authority has established the funding and expenditure plan, as outlined in the ' "Summary of Reserve Funds: 10 -Yr. Planning Period" (P-1 l J According to staff's current review and based upon borrowing approximately twenty million dollars for the conversion of the operations from mil haul to trucking, funds are adequate for the immediate short-term planning period. However, additional funding or future borrowing may be needed for the Closure, Equipment Replacement and the Site Development Reserve Funds for the latter years of the long -term planning period. Staff is working with our consultant to extend the life of Phase VII to minimize the amount of borrowing required for the Closure and Site Development Reserves. The Board and staff are in the final stages of determining the direction that the Authority will take on the future transportation of waste and leachate management. on November 1, 2016, the Authority assumed ownership and the operational control and responsibilities of the Salem Transfer Station. The Authority is in the process of converting this facility to an open, top -load out for trailers to improve operational efficiencies. Upon commencing actual construction of these modifications, the decision for RESERVE FUNDS 2017 -2018 ANNUAL REVIEW RMWke Vallee Re r. Authority AND RESERVE FUNDS future transportation methodology will be set. In addition, the Rutrough Road Post - Closure Account Reserve Fund is nearly depleted. Future post closure care responsibilities have been moved to the operations budget starting in FY 2018. The remaining funds in the Rutrough Road account will be reserved for the Resource Authority's share of the lift and force main construction project now underway by the Western Virginia Water Authority. While the Reserve Plan is fluid and transitional at this time, it is consistent with the needs and obligations of the Authority and has been approved by the Authority's Board of Directors. tRESERVE FUNDS ' 2017 -2019 5 Roanoke Valley Reswme Authority CONSULTING ENGINEERS REVIEW CONSULTING ENGINEERS REVIEW The retirement of all outstandingbond debt in FY 2011 subsequently relieved the Authority ' of its former financial requirements as previously imposed by the Master Indenture of Trust, ' including the establishment and funding of certain reserve funds as recorded and reported in the annual report. While no longer obligated to the terms of the Master Indenture of Trust, several ' previously established reserve funds remain as ongoing obligations to the Authority due to start- up and operating restrictions imposed under the Authority's separate "Landfill, Rail, & Transfer ' Station Permit Conditions & Operating Policies," including: The Groundwater Protection Fund (formerly known as "The Environmental Fund "); The Host Community Fund; and The Property Protection Fund. Additionally, the Authority is contractually obligated to maintain the post - closure care of the closed Roanoke Landfill (a.k.a. the Rutmugh Road Landfill) with funds initially established and designated expressly for this purpose in The Rutroueh Road Landfill Post - Closure Fund. Therefore, these four reserve funds are designated as "Restricted" reserve accounts which must be maintained and adequately funded for their express, respective purposes. Unfortunately, the Rutrourh Road Landfill Post - Closure Fund will be depleted within the short-term planning period and will ultimately transition to the operating budget. As part of its initial post -bond debt, fiscal responsibility, the Authority recognized that one of the keys to sound financial management is the development of a systematic way to fund planned capital projects and on -going maintenance programs beyond its operating permit and contractual requirements. The Authority believes it is equally important to establish the planned expenditures of associated funding for its capital projects and maintenance programs on a pay - as- you -go basis whenever possible. However, the Authority's recent assumption of ownership of the Salem Transfer Station and the associated increase of approximately 50% in additional MSW, provides the Authority with the opportunity and revenue resources to add, modify and RESERVE FUNDS 2017 -2018 6 Rm keV"iietRew ANhuity CONSULTING ENGINEERS REVIEW improve its facilities. Therefore, the Authority has borrowed $11.1 million dollars in FY' 17 to begin that process and anticipates borrowing an additional $8.9M in FY' 18. Consideration may be given to additional borrowing based on future considerations, such as better defined revenues and expenditures based on operational considerations being finalized for transportation of the Authority's MSW. The National Advisory Council on State and Local Budgeting (NACSLB) has issued guidelines representing standards of excellence in governmental budgeting that include the preparation of policies and plans for capital asset acquisition, maintenance, and replacement (Principle 2; Element 5; Practice 5.2). Therefore, the Authority established additional reserve funds for these purposes which are designated as "Unrestricted" reserve accounts since at this time there are no external conditions, other than sound financial management as outlined and approved in the RVRA RESERVES PLAN ( "Plan"), requiring their existence and funding levels. The Unrestricted Funds include: The Closure Fund; The Equipment Fund; The Site Development Fund; The Capital Improvement Fund; and The Contingency Fund. The Closure, Equipment, and Site Development Funds were previously required under the former Master Indenture of Trust and funding levels were maintained and managed accordingly. The Capital hnprovement and Contingency Funds, while not previously required per any outside obligation, were established and recognized as being necessary for sound financial management of the Authority's operations and its facilities. The Authority recognizes that periodically, it may need to add, delete, or amend its unrestricted funds as deemed to be in the best interest of the Authority and its members. In fact, the pending depletion of the Rutrough Road Post Closure Account has required the Authority to assume the post closure care responsibilities starting in FY 2018 and that account will no longer be available. The additional borrowing of funds (or debt) and the Ownership of the Salem Transfer Station will also impact the future Reserve and Financial Policies of the Authority. However, since we are in our infancy of our new Transfer Station and I' 2017-201R RESERVE FUNDS Roanoke Valley Resource A ftnty CONSULTING ENGINEERS REVIEW the pending Norfolk Southern Contract negotiations these policies and financial guidelines are still unclear. All funds required for expenditures for the five year planning period are currently available in the reserves accounts. The long range (ten year projections) shows a considerably shortage of funds in the Closure and Site Development Accounts. As noted earlier, staff is working with our consultant to extend the life of Phase VII; therefore, decreasing significantly the amount of funds required in 2025 and beyond. While the Plan is still fairly fluid it is consistent with the needs and obligations of the Authority and has been approved by the Authority's Board of Directors. The Authority annually makes deposits to its reserve funds for funding future planned expenditures. These reserves allow the Authority to establish and project an orderly adjustment of its tipping fee revenues as necessary to prepare for future capital expenditures to coincide with its annual operating costs. Initial projections made in 1992 during the start-up, 20 -year revenue bond issuance established a basis of anticipated costs and revenues for operating the new solid waste disposal system through the bond term. More than two decades of actual operating experience of the Authority's systems has allowed the Authority to delay anticipated increases in tipping fees and offer rates less than originally projected. However, the prolonged downtumed economy has significantly affected the Authority's revenues primarily due to an overall reduction of municipal waste flow and a significant reduction in investment earnings. With the economy slowly improving and improved economies of scale from the additional waste accepted at the Salem Transfer Station has allowed the Authority to borrow the additional funds needed for the conversion of all of facilities to ship waste by rail (shipping containers) or trucking, without significantly adversely impacting the Authority's tipping fees. 2017 -2018 RESERVE FUNDS Roanoke Valley Resource Authority CONSULTING ENGINEERS ' REVIEW ' Each reserve fund has been reviewed for its adequacy to meet the planned expenditures over a short-term period of five years and for an extended, long -term, planning period of ten years. All the Reserves have been determined to be adequate for the short-term planning period. The long -term planning period is less than adequate, most notably for the Equipment, Site Development, and ' Closure Funds. At this time, unless we expand our leachate storage capacity, whenever a new Phase of the landfill is constructed we alternatively have to close a similar area in size. While Phase VII's original air space was adequate for our original members, with the additional waste accepted at the Salem Transfer Station, that statement is no longer valid and staff is working to expand the life of Phase VII to minimize the future financial impacts of those two accounts in the long range plan. ' Historically, the Equipment Reserve Fund has shown a shortfall in the long range planning phases. Every year staff assesses the equipment needs and some instances replacement is delayed or moved ' up depending on the condition of the equipment at that time. Again, all purchases are for new equipment with little or no trade -in value associated with that piece of equipment. If the Board tdecides to go with trucking for our long range transportation needs, some equipment will no longer t be needed and can be surplused and the sale of that equipment can be used to off -set the long range shortfall. In summary, while the long range deficits are a concem, staff believes that the majority of those impacts can be mitigated as noted above. For the short term planning period, all funds have been deemed to be adequate. Respectfully Submitted, Daniel D. Miles, P.E.

For the current planning period, deposits will be made monthly providing a total annual deposit of $300,000 (previously $200,000) based on the landfill's estimated future closure costs as they correspond to the landfill's planned and phased useful life. As noted, deposits may be adjusted based on revised cost estimates and an increase or decrease in the amount of waste received in future years. Portions of Smith Gap Landfill are close to final grade and in accordance with our permit are in the process of being closed. We have entered into a contract with Smith Gardner & Associates, Inc. to conduct the design and construction management necessary to complete current closure requirements. We anticipate closure to begin this spring. The anticipated closure cost are based on Smith Gardner & Associates anticipated cost. The Closure Fund is adequate for the five year planning period; however, the ten -year period is showing a significant shortage. As noted earlier, staff anticipates that this shortage can be greatly reduced with the expansion of Phase VII's life expectancy. In addition, there may be an opportunity to delay the closure of certain areas of the landfill with the expansion of the leachate storage capacity, or utilizing leachate recirculation, and possibly installing a sewer line in the vicinity of the NS rail spur to the honto exit. 2017 -2018 11 12 RESERVE FUNDS r F Roanoke Valley Resource Authonty CLOSURE RE F l V D r r r A r pr r r r r Landfill Closure Fund FISCAL YEAR BEGINNING BALANCE ANNUAL DEPOSIT EXPENSES ENDING BALANCE USES 1998 -99 2,375,000 250,000 0 2.625,000 1999.20 2,625,000 250,000 0 2,875,000 2000 -01 2,882,755 250,000 0 3,132,755 2001 -02 3,132,755 250,000 0 3,382,755 2002 -03 3,382,755 250,000 0 3,632,755 2003-04 3,632,755 250,000 0 3,882,755 2004-05 3,882,755 250,000 0 4,132,755 2005-06 4,132,755 250,000 0 4,382,755 200607 4,382,755 250,000 0 4,632,755 2007-06 4,632,755 1,050,000 10,291 5,672,464 Phase Design 2008 -09 5,672,464 600,000 29,817 6.242,647 Phase I Design & LFGCCS 2009 -10 6,242,647 600,000 72,704 6,769,943 Phase I Design & LFGCCS 2010 -11 6,769,943 400,000 1,589,591 5,580,352 Complete LFGCCS 2011 -12 5,580,352 100,000 193,600 5,486,752 Misa LFGCCS & LFGTE 2012 -13 5,486,752 300,000 22,500 5,7641252 Clasum & Misc LFGCCS 201314 5,764,252 1 300,000 21,915 6,042,337 Misc.

For the current planning period, deposits will be made monthly providing a total annual deposit $1,400,000 (previously $1,000,000). Cost estimates were adjusted significantly in 2011 based on new emission guidelines and additional borrowing or alternate methods of purchasing to include leasing may be required. The Equipment Fund remains underfunded for the long -term planning periods; however, the short term (five year) projections are adequate. A recent State Contract and other cooperative procurement programs has allowed the Authority to purchase cctain equipment a lower price than ' previously budgeted. Staff anticipates the Authority's borrowing levels are sufficient to cover all new equipment ' needed with the transition from gondolas to shipping containers or trailers. The existing and future trailers to be purchased are anticipated to start being replaced in seven years. If trucking is the final mode of transportation, staff will be able to surplus several pieces of equipment or move equipment from the landfill to the transfer stations to be used as a back -up or primary machine to minimize the purchase of additional equipment. Currently all equipment expenditures are based on the purchase of new equipment with little or no trade -in value for equipment to be replaced or deleted from service. As noted in the past, staff may be able to lease or lease purchase equipment to off -set the long term deficit. The Equipment Fund also serves to assist in complying with post - closure requirements of state and federal financial assurance regulations. 2017 -2018 14 RESERVE FUNDS 1 Roanoke Valley Resource Authority -EQUIPMENT FUND 1 V D Equipment Reserve Fund FISCAL YEAR BEGINNING BALANCE ANNUAL DEPOSIT EXPENSES ENDING BALANCE Detailed Schedule 1998 -99 2,704,000 375,000 260,000 3,127,939 See Attached 1999 -20 3,127,939 375,000 288,289 3,214,650 See Attached 2000.01 3,214,650 375,000 555,535 3,034,115 See Attached 2001 -02 3,034,115 375,000 987,595 2,421,520 See Attached 2002 -03 2,421,520 375,000 680,098 2,116,422 See Attached 2003-04 2,116,422 400,000 459,327 2,057,095 See Attached 2004-05 2,057,095 400,000 561,464 1,895,631 See Attached 2005-06 1,895,631 400,000 323,589 1,972,042 See Attached 2006-07 1,972,042 400,000 492,652 1,879,390 See Attached 2007-08 1,879,390 674,231 1,280,731 1,272,890 See Attached 8 note Gel. 2008 -09 1,272,890 400,000 1,103,483 569,407 See Attached 2009 -10 569,407 600,000 351,088 818,319 See Attached 2010 -11 818,319 600,000 625,485 792,834 See Attached 2011 -12 792,834 600,000 937,839 454,995 See Attached 2012 -13 454,995 1,20,000 651,277 1,053,718 See Attached 2013 -14 1,053,718 1,100,000 858,452 1,295,266 See Attached 201415 1,295266 1,100,000 1,292,433 1,102,833 See Attached 2015 -16 1,102,833 1,000,000 316,228 1,786,605 See Attached 2016-17 1,786,605 1,000,000 1,147,615 1,638,990 See Attached 2017 -18 1,638,990 1,400,000 587,500 2,451,490 See Attached 2018 -19 2,451,490 1,400,000 2,755,967 1,095,523 See Attached 2019.20 1,095,523 1,400,000 1,236,000 1,259,523 See Attached 2020 -21 1,259,523 1,400,000 70,000 2,58,523 See Attached 2021 -22 2,589,523 1,400,000 498,223 3,491,300 See Attached 2022 -23 3,491,300 1,400,000 581,590 4,30,710 See Attached 2023 -24 4,309,710 1,400,000 2,097,082 3,612,628 See Attached 2024-25 3.612,628 1,400,000 3,396,384 1,616,244 See Attached 2025 -26 1,616,244 1,400,000 4,168,649 - 1,152,405 See Attached 2026 -27 - 1,152,405 1,400,000 3,093,689 - 2,646,094 See Attached 2027 -28 - 2,846,094 2017 -2018 RESERVE FUNDS Im 2 | ■ # ) e - = � � )\ ) C� C E 2 O # ! - k 0 ! : $ e } E , ! � / t | f ° ° # # ■ k ( | § « lG2;,m2:G;E2 ;■ „E22m:2EG;Emmm,GGG;G; !§|;; ; ; ; | § | ; ; ; ;; § | ; ; ;; § ; §§ ; § ; ;!■ ; ; ;! .

' 1— 2017 -2018 `PI Reserve Funds Roanoke Valley Resource Authonty CAPITAL IMPRO V JL:MENT FUND CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT FUND In FY 2008 - 2009, The Capital improvement Fund was established by the Authority, outside the Master Indenture of Trust, to be used for various capital maintenance items and new projects anticipated for the short and long -term ten -year planning periods. Examples of the projects include: Concrete floor overlay, re- surfacing all asphalt internal roads and parking lots, replacing the heating and cooling systems, renovation and maintenance of all existing building structures, construction of a residential service area, scale maintenance and possibly a new and additional automated, in -bound scale. Projects may be added or amended as the solid waste operations and industry continues to evolve and funds are available. Previously, the Board authorized an independent Facility Wide Assessment (Report) of the facilities owned and operated by the Resource Authority. The Report identified and prioritized several deficiencies that needed to be addressed and the Board authorized staff to proceed with those high priority projects as soon as possible. With the impeding modifications and improvements to the Authority's facilities currently underway, staff has placed a hold on all future capital projects with the intent that when the conversions are made at both Transfer Stations and the landfill, the majority of the deficiencies noted in the Report will be addressed at that time. Y The Residential Service Area is approximately ninety -five percent complete. After that project is completed, no additional funding or expenditures are shown for the next ten years and the Funds me deemed to be adequate at this time. The Capital Improvement Fund also serves to assist in complying with post - closure requirements of state and federal financial assurance regulations. y 2017 -2018 29 RESERVE FUNDS 1 1 Roanoke Valley Resource Authority CAL' 1 AL Capital Improvement Reserve Fund FISCAL VEAR BEGINNING BALANCE ANNUAL DEPOSIT EXPENSES ENDING BALANCE USES 2008-09 260,000 200,000 0 460,000 No Planned Uses 2009 -10 4fi0,000 200,000 21,356 638,644 SG DuslB Od Control 2010 -11 638,644 200,000 319,917 518,727 Tipper& TS Floor 2011 -12 518,727 200,000 220,271 498,456 Tipper & Hollins Road 2012 -13 498,456 100,000 108,900 489,556 Tipper& Roofing 201314 489,556 613,407 109,798 99±765 RSA Engnng& Dirt, HVAC 2014 -15 993,165 190,000 793,014 390,151 RSA & Roofing TS 201546 390,151 390,000 799,828 - 19,677 RSA 2016 -17 49,677 390,000 178,000 252,323 RSA 2017 -18 252,323 0 0 252,323 No work Planned 2018 -19 252,323 0 0 252,323 No work Planned 2019 -20 252,323 0 0 252,323 No work Planned 2020 -21 252,323 0 0 252,323 No work Planned 2021 -22 252.323 0 0 252,323 No work Planned 2022 -23 252,323 0 0 252,323 No wodc Planned 202324 252,323 0 0 252,323 No work Planned 2024-25 252,323 0 0 252,323 No work Planned 2025 -26 252,323 0 0 252,323 No wo& Planned 2026 -27 2027 -28 2028 -29 Notes: Funds ($423,407) from VDOT's purchase of the ROW were deposited in FY 2014 2017 -2018 30 RESERVE FUNDS � \ \ § E - .- § \ Q ! _ ` \ e ] / ! / \\ § OF \ t } to _ § -. § �\ \- ` E0 }\/ § > � . - � ) Roanoke Valley Resource Authority RUROUGH ROAD RESERVE FUND RUTROUGH ROAD LANDFILL POST - CLOSURE FUND The Rutrough Road Landfill Post - Closure Fund (RRLF PC Fund) was established with an initial contribution of $5,500,000 per the terms of the "Implementation Agreement For (i) Distribution and Indemnification Agreement dated October 23, 1991 and (ii) Assignment Agreement dated October 23, 1991." The sole purpose of the RRLF PC Fund is to provide the funding necessary for the Authority to manage the post - closure care of the closed Rutrough Road Landfill until (i) such time as the funds in the account are depleted; or, (ii) the Authority determines the account is no longer needed for its intended purpose, in which case, any funds remaining in the account shall be available for use by the Authority for any authorized purpose. The Rutrough Road Landfill Post - Closure Fund (RRLF PC Fund) is inadequate for the five year planning period and staff anticipates that this reserve account will be depleted at the current rate of expenditures within the next year. Therefore, staff has moved the post - closure care responsibilities to the appropriate operating accounts for FY 2018 and will continue to do so for future expenditures. The funds remaining in the RRLF PC Fund will be used to fund the Authority's share of the lift station and force main in addition to some minor maintenance and repairs of the existing sediment basins. Once the Funds have been totally exhausted, this reserve account will be deleted. 2017 -2018 32 RESERVE FUNDS M °m � � e MM � e m(VOw m m m m I V (tlO imro fN 9 1v f i 9 A fm ry m � mvw < n n � a m ow rro m - m p df� w w eo w i w om 00 o9[w m T Nw . mN ow N mN em O w9 mew �N D vN m f � m ew w w w w w w o � m m � � ' om < o m N m m � 'NnwnuNff e o� d> m e i m °m n "wN mwb�s m mm o5 . �r » wN s w w° rm emN � wn o °o m > i N e n Y N mr m 0wa O�+ l :o wm n m w»o0 wN w w » m m a m N o °m °m °o °o1ii m orm am m"m oro 0H , p " � n m N I,. p Y m Z 0 J w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w W p a w o e f m N y y F a0 ZO p � OI a rc p w w w w w ov en w w w w w w w w w w w w w LL o � N �i Ni°n °em °n vmim °m a�rin °m am�r° o p �wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww _ N N N'm y �J Nin umimN mrtim m m fwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww w wl °i mry'`n e e<n n w -�mn m eNUSma � wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww d' rc�Iwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww w w w w w w w w V Wm m N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N M - - -- - -- - §| ■aa;;a };aa; m ` • {� ifa; °aa °aa° ] _~ , §� §!( ] !00 |•��a�aa ®aa° ] ! y! ®r! x=22° 0 �° { ■u��sasa °sa° � /`�N�n§ |■ |§ § � \ Roanoke Valley Resource Authonly C ®1 V d lNGENC 1 RESERVE FUND CONTINGENCY FUND The purpose of the Contingency Fund is to provide (i) rate stabilization on an annual basis; and (ii) emergency funding for unforeseen increases in expenses or decreases in revenues.

ATTEST: I R�.+A. X I1 � 10,r Iznh4- U.., City Cler° . V G" CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT To: Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council Meeting: April 17, 2017 Subject: Appropriation of Proceeds from the Sale of Series 2017 General Obligation Public Improvement Bonds Background: On June 20, 2016, Council authorized the issuance of 2017 new money general obligation bonds in an amount not to exceed $28 million. The approved FY 2017 CIP at that time totaled $26,515,000. Subsequent to this authorizat is 2017 scheduling changes and a reprioritization of projects enabled the City to less than originally anticipated while focusing on higher priority projects. The 'original' issuance authorization is detailed below. On March 23, 2017, the City of Roanoke issued new money Bond Series 2017 (tax- exempt) in the amount of $23,670,000, the form of which bonds were approved by counsel for the City. The new money bond portion will be utilized to fund projects included in the City's approved Capital Improvement Plan (CIP). Funding was appropriated in advance of issuance for all of these projects and originally included new debt for the Library Master Plan. Subsequent to the appropriation, it was determined that the Library Master Plan could be funded by a reallocation of prior year issuances and required no additional debt to meet established plan goals. The projects are detailed in the 'final' issuance below. School Facilities Maintenance and Improvements Bridge Renovation Final $ 5,000,000 $ 05,000,0()0 Projects Library Master Plan 8,050,000 8,050,000 Parks and Recreation Master Plan 2,,000 Street Improvements 2,500,000 2,550000,000 Stormwater Management 3,500,000 3,500,000 Curb, Gutter, and Sidewalk Program 1,620,000 1,620,000 Streetscape Improvements 1,000,000 1,000,000 911 Center 500,000 500,000 1,500,000 1 500000 $ 23,670,000 $ 26,515,000 New money bond proceeds of $22.520 million are less than the projects to be funded of $23.670 million due to these bonds being issued at a premium. A bond issuance premium provides up front funds for the project and enables the amount of debt issuance to be reduced. This occurs when the market rate on the bonds is lower than the stated interest rate. Bond issuance premium of $1.3 million will therefore be appropriated toward project costs. The size of the issue, along with the City's reaffirmed AA+ rating from Fitch and Standard and Poor's, enabled the City of Roanoke to take advantage of low rates in a competitive bidding process in the municipal tax exempt market. The true interest cost for the 2017 new money was 2.99% with an average life of 12 years. At the time of Council appropriation, budget placeholder entries were made, enabling staff to maintain a proper record of appropriation of funds in advance of issuance. Upon sale of the bonds, it is now appropriate for a revenue estimate to be developed for proceeds from the sale of bonds and associated bond premium and adjust and remove the placeholder entries. Recommended Action: Adopt the accompanying budget ordinance to reflect the sale of Series 2017 Bonds. Sincerely, i 72 y BARBARA A.

Dykstra, Membe of Council 0 BRANDON REZONING (04/17/17) Thank you Mayor Lea and thank you to all the presenters here tonight and the concerned citizens that came out to speak to give us their thoughts regarding this rezoning. Being a developer, I certainly am pro economic development and I enjoy every ribbon cutting for a new and expanded business and I look forward to many to come, both private and governmental. And, 1 agree that there is a unique need for more residential accommodations, of all types. I have been involved with my share, as both a designer and as a developer. The need for more living units is certainly a good problem to have. More jobs coming, more millennials coming, the innovation corridor blooming. Roanoke is in a good spot. And being a civil engineer gives me an understanding of many the evaluation criteria associated with development and site planning, including traffic, grading, water quality and stormwater management. I have had the opportunity to listen tonight, listen to the presentations and public hearing at the planning commission, read dozens and dozens of emails, letters, Facebook postings and messages, face to face meetings with citizens, and I have reviewed the development plans. Additionally, I have walked the site from Brambleton to Brandon Lane and on both sides of Murry Run and discussed the project with other professionals in this field of practice. What I want to do now is present my findings and thoughts. 1. What I heard as a primary justification for this apartment project was its compatibility with the neighborhood plans. As we have heard, the intersections of Brambleton and Brandon and Main and Brandon are zoned Commercial Neighborhood, also known as a Neighborhood Village. Being that CN property is immediately adjacent 0 Brandon and since multi - family is compatible with a neighborhood village, then this R -7 zoned property would be suitable for rezoning. It is my belief that a neighborhood village involves much more than a collection of commercial establishments, otherwise at any corner in Roanoke, where commercial has sprouted up would be considered a neighborhood Village. To me, a neighborhood village for Roanoke is predominately an area that in its history was a thriving neighborhood village and we have many examples, some that thrive today and some that want and need to thrive. Our 2 best examples are Grandin Court and Crystal Spring. Those that were and can be again someday, include 11's NW corridor and Williamson Road and 10`s Street. What these neighborhood villages have in common are businesses that serve the immediate community, walkable neighborhoods, a good mix of community businesses, businesses that are adjacent to broad pedestrian ways and parking to the side or rear of the businesses, are pedestrian friendly and active and punctuated by adequate landscaping. 1 see little resemblance of a community village at this location. 2. The second justification for the rezoning was comparing a 54 apartment development to a 33 single family residential development and concluding that a single family development had the same net increase in traffic flow and more adversely affected traffic patterns on Brandon Avenue. That could be true, if 33 single family homes could actually fit on this property, and it might be true if a developer was reckless in their design approach. Having walked the site, l do not believe that this property cannot support 33 single family lots. Maximizing lots by using 7000 square foot lots is juxtaposed against a substantial waterway, flood zone, flood fringe, steep topography on each side of the creek, accessibility, riparian needs of the creek and unusually steep topography at the rear of the property. A responsible single family development of this property would be wide lots that went from Brandon to the rear yards of lots on Oakwood, with a single shared creek crossing and shared driveway regulated by a property owner's association and a single exit off of Brandon Lane with improved intersection traffic controls. This would limit the number of lots from around 7 to 10. Houses would be on the south side of the creek and well buffered from Brandon Avenue and compatible with Oakwood. 3. Regarding traffic, it is not disputed that this area is a difficult area at many times during the day and there is no formulated solution to alleviate an already congested traffic area. Although the left turning lane on Brandon provides a cue for stacking 3 vehicles entering the apartment project, it is interjecting an additional lane in an already very awkward and high traffic volume location. The difficulties of the traffic patterns for this project has resulted in only being able to exit east on to Brandon Avenue from the project, with no good solution to accommodate west bound traffic. The ideas of using Little Caesar's parking lot or interior neighborhood streets in not an adequate solution. The traffic problems have not been addressed. 4. About flooding and stormwater management of both quantity of water and water quality. Disturbing of at least 10000 square feet of land requires both, but neither has been discussed, other than saying that with the final design and review process, both would be addressed. Possibly? This property and proposed development absolutely maximizes the area between Murry Run and Brandon Avenue, with parking lots jammed up against the apartments and parking lots taken as close to the creek as possible. It is not known at this time what may be needed to make the grading work, but it is extremely tight and grades to Murry run are for the most part already very steep. When parking and building coverage is maximized, little land is left for rain gardens, detention areas, vegetative swales, etc., for control of water quality and quantity, relegating options to such things as below ground tanks and pipes or permeable pavement for quantity or green roofs for quality. Although a solution may be possible, it will be forced at best and not as effective as the current natural setting. The downstream conditions of Murry Run cannot be allowed to deteriorate further, where known flooding problems have persisted. 5. Murry Run is an impaired stream as defined by DEQ. This site disturbs more than 1 acre, therefore stream and wetland areas will need to be protected per State requirements. One such protection is a riparian buffer. Currently the site plan shows that riparian buffer as the paved parking lot for the apartments. Obviously that is not a riparian buffer. This section of impaired Murry Run will deteriorate further with this project, both during and after construction. Options may exist that would allow the elimination of this natural riparian buffer, by improvements elsewhere, but at what cost to Murry Run? 6. If there is not agreement with the design criteria discussed above, then we have the reality of a petition of 500 citizens that are asking that the rezoning not be allowed, along with the 4 surrounding Neighborhood Associations and the Neighborhood President's Council. 7. There is a third solution, with precedent in many locations across the City. That is to maintain the site in its natural state for the most part, but added improvements for a better riparian buffer, flood protection measures, greenways, and stream protection. This has occurred on Garden City Blvd., 10" Street NW and Lick Run and all along the Roanoke River. There is a reason this site has remained undeveloped for decades. The difficulties of development are the same items that create a degradation of flooding and stream water quality and place pressure on current traffic flows and congestion. There are many acceptable sites for apartment development in the City, but this is not one of them. Single family is the correct zoning, but better to be developed for what it is, a setting for Murry Run. Subject: Application by R. Fralin Companies, Inc., to rezone property located at 0 (zero) Brandon Avenue, S.W., bearing Tax No. 1250801, from R -7, Residential Single - Family District, to MXPUD, Mixed Use Planned Unit Development District. Recommendation The Planning Commission held a public hearing on Monday, April 10, 2017. By a vote of 5 - 0, with Commissioner Hale recusing himself due to a conflict of interest, the Commission recommended approval of the rezoning request, finding that the Amended Application No. 2, as amended at the hearing and subsequently submitted as Amended Application No. 3, is consistent with the City's Comprehensive Plan, applicable neighborhood plans, and Zoning Ordinance as the rezoning redevelops an underused site, balances the development potential of the site with the environment, and is sensitive to its relationship with the adjoining neighborhood. While the future land use plan of the Franklin Road /Colonial Avenue Plan identifies the property as single - family medium density, the context of the parcel is important. The property is located where two other neighborhood plans identify adjacent parcels for village center development. The comprehensive plan and neighborhood plans, by reference, recommend higher density residential uses within and near village centers. The existing village center context and recommended traditional development pattern provide a basis for supporting higher density residential on this parcel.

However, the property had multiple buildings for many years. In 1958, 0.93 acres of the property was deeded to the City of Roanoke for a Brandon Avenue street widening project and two of the buildings were removed. The remaining building was razed in 1974. The property has remained vacant for over forty years. The property was rezoned from RS -3, Residential Single - Family District, to R -7, Residential Single - Family District, during the 2005 Comprehensive Rezoning of the City. Both district types were intended to provide principally medium density single - family development. In the winter of 2016, the applicant met with staff to discuss the possibility of amending the zoning of the property to permit multifamily dwellings. Since filing the original application on December 23, 2016, the applicant has presented the proposal to surrounding community members in three public meetings. He has requested continuances in order to provide more time to respond to feedback from neighbors, staff, and Planning Commissioners with two subsequent amended applications. Development Plan In a planned unit development district, all development must be in substantial conformance with the development plan, if approved, and other applicable standards of the zoning ordinance (e.g., landscaping and screening). Considerations Although officially listed as part of the Franklin Road /Colonial Avenue Plan area, the property is located at the intersection of several neighborhoods and serves as a gateway property. The adjoining neighborhood areas are Wasena and Greater Raleigh Court and the plans for these areas should be considered in the impacts of the rezoning request. Surrounding Zoning and Land Use: Compliance with the Zoning Ordinance: In a Planned Unit Development District, many of the dimensional regulations are defined by the PUD development plan. The proposed development plan displays the required information through graphics and text. Signage is regulated in the PUD district by what is specified on the development plan or is the same as CG when not specified by the development plan. No signage information is listed on the development plan; therefore, the regulation for the CG district would apply. The height, square footage, and permitted characteristics of signage in the CG District may not be appropriate within the context of the neighborhood commercial and residential areas surrounding the property. The future development of the property is subject to the development plan and the dimensional and development standards of the ordinance. The property is also located within the F, Floodplain Overlay District. As such, any development of the property must meet the floodplain management standards of that district. The property is also located within the RCC, River and Creek Corridors Overlay District. As such, development of the property must meet the riparian buffer standards of that district. No principal or accessory uses or structures shall be permitted within the area of the required riparian buffer, however, streets are permitted within the required riparian buffer area, provided no more Zoning District Land Use North RM -1, Residential Mixed Density Single- family dwellings, Vacant, District; CN, Commercial- Contractor or tradesman shop, and Neighborhood District; and RM -2, Multifamily dwellings Residential Mixed Density District South R -7, Residential Single - Family Single- family dwellings District East R -7, Residential Single - Family Single- family dwellings and vacant District West CN, Commercial- Neighborhood Personal service establishment; District Office, general and professional; Retail sales establishment; Eating establishment Compliance with the Zoning Ordinance: In a Planned Unit Development District, many of the dimensional regulations are defined by the PUD development plan.

Signage is regulated in the PUD district by what is specified on the development plan or is the same as CG when not specified by the development plan. No signage information is listed on the development plan; therefore, the regulation for the CG district would apply. The height, square footage, and permitted characteristics of signage in the CG District may not be appropriate within the context of the neighborhood commercial and residential areas surrounding the property. The future development of the property is subject to the development plan and the dimensional and development standards of the ordinance. The property is also located within the F, Floodplain Overlay District. As such, any development of the property must meet the floodplain management standards of that district. The property is also located within the RCC, River and Creek Corridors Overlay District. As such, development of the property must meet the riparian buffer standards of that district. No principal or accessory uses or structures shall be permitted within the area of the required riparian buffer, however, streets are permitted within the required riparian buffer area, provided no more land is disturbed than is necessary to provide for the desired installation or construction, all required permits have been issued, and any land disturbance activity complies with all erosion and sediment control requirements for the stabilization of disturbed areas to minimize negative effects on the quality of surface waters. Conformity with the Comprehensive Plan and Neighborhood Plan Vision 2001 -2020 recognizes the need for the development of higher density residential uses surrounding village center areas in a manner that reinforces the physical and social fabrics of the existing neighborhood. The currently vacant site is situated between two neighborhood commercial centers at the junction of three neighborhoods: Franklin /Colonial, Wasena, and Raleigh Court. The residential areas surrounding the neighborhood centers are all of higher densities than the property under consideration for rezoning, with the exception of the southern tip of the westernmost neighborhood commercial area. The areas to the north of Brandon Avenue are all of a higher density traditional neighborhood development pattern, while the most of area to the south of Brandon Avenue is a less dense early suburban development pattern. The area is comprised of residential, commercial, and vacant properties; many of which are within the floodplain. Relevant policies and action items in the comprehensive plan include: 3.111ousing and Neighborhoods Roanoke's neighborhoods should function as "villages," with downtown serving as the City's premier urban village. Higher densities of development should be concentrated around existing or planned mixed -use neighborhood commercial areas, with housing density decreasing away from the village center. Neighborhood parks, schools, and community centers should be maintained and improved. Neighborhood streets and streetscapes should encourage pedestrian activity and bicycle use. Streets and roads should encourage a compact urban form and not enable sprawl. NH P5. Housing Choice. The City will have a balanced, range of housing choices in all price ranges and design options that encourage social and economic diversity throughout the City. City Design Building location and design should be considered as important elements of the streetscape and should be used to define the street corridor as a public place, especially at major intersections. City Design Traditional neighborhoods o Traditional neighborhoods are characterized by medium -sized lots (5,000 -7,000 square feet); one and a half- or two -story houses; consistent building setbacks; and an interconnected grid of narrow, tree lined streets. These neighborhoods developed between the 1920s and 1940s as the streetcar system expanded outward. Traditional neighborhoods often feature churches, neighborhood schools, and small neighborhood commercial centers. o Design principles: • All streets should have sidewalks and should be lined with trees. On- street parking should be encouraged; driveways and garages should be located to the side or rear of buildings. • Neighborhood schools and commercial centers should be preserved. • Houses should be consistent in terms of front yard setback and bulk. Suburban neighborhoods o Suburban neighborhoods are characterized by large lots (greater than 7,000 square feet), a variety of housing sizes and styles, deep front yard setbacks, wide curvilinear streets, and prominent driveways and garages. These neighborhoods developed after World War II as dependency on the automobile increased. o Design principles: • New residential development should incorporate traditional neighborhood principles rather than suburban patterns. • Street improvements within suburban neighborhoods should focus on greater vehicular connection, pedestrian amenities, and reduction of pavement width. Village centers • Roanoke's traditional neighborhoods typically featured small commercial centers that allowed residents to live, work, and shop in a local setting. Village centers are characterized by a mixture of high - density uses, including neighborhood- oriented retail, office, and residential uses. Buildings are typically set close to the street and often adjoin each other; parking is located to the side or rear of principal buildings. • Design principles: • Higher- density residential development should be concentrated within and immediately adjacent to village centers; housing density should decrease with distance away from the village center. The Franklin Road /Colonial Avenue Plan recognizes the need to maintain the current residential densities, but speaks more specifically about large residential areas along Colonial and Franklin Roads than the area in which the particular parcel under consideration for rezoning is located. Relevant policies and action items in the neighborhood plan include: Residential Development Policies • Neighborhood Character: Older neighborhoods should retain their current residential character. • Zoning: Zoning should reinforce the existing character of neighborhoods. • New development: New development should be well - planned and use limited land resources wisely. Infrastructure Policies and Actions • Streetscapes: Streetscapes should be well maintained, attractive and functional for pedestrian, bicycle and motor traffic. • Curb, gutter and sidewalk Improvements: New developments and arterial and collector streets should have urban amenities such as sidewalks and curb and gutter and appropriate species of trees should also be planted along streetscapes. • Curb, gutter and sidewalk Improvements: Determine the need for improvements based on the following: • Arterial streets - all arterial streets should be equipped with curb, gutter and sidewalk. • Stormwater Management: Alleviate stormwater runoff as much as possible through alternatives to curb and gutter. The Wasena Neighborhood Plan encourages a continuation of the neighborhood's current residential mix of single - family, duplex, and multifamily structures in a manner that ensures new residential development is compatible with existing structures and maximizes the development potential of vacant properties. Relevant policies and action items in the neighborhood plan include: Community Design Policies • Development Model: Future development should follow the traditional neighborhood model prescribed by Vision 2001 -2020. • Implement village center zoning: Implement village center zoning to replace the current CN zoning in the Main Street village center, and the C -2 zoning on the southern end of Main Street. Residential Development Policies and Actions • Design and Orientation of Infill Housing: New housing should be compatible with the existing structures in design and scale. • Diversity of Housing Options: The diversity of housing that exists in the neighborhood should continue. • Orientation of Infill Housing: Amend the zoning ordinance to ensure that new residential development is compatible with existing structures in terms of setbacks and lot coverage, and to maximize the development potential of vacant properties and structures. • Diversity of Housing Options: Maintain a zoning district similar to the current RM -1 in residential areas in the update of the zoning ordinance. Infrastructure Policies and Actions o Streetscapes: Streetscapes should be well maintained, attractive and functional for pedestrian, bicycle and motor traffic, and traditional neighborhood streets should have urban amenities such as sidewalks and curb and gutter. Appropriate species of trees should also be planted along streetscapes. The Greater Raleigh Court Neighborhood Plan also seeks to maintain a range of housing options throughout the neighborhood. Relevant policies and action items in the neighborhood plan include: Community Design Policies o The neighborhood should retain its overall traditional character and development patterns. New development should.be compatible with the neighborhood, consistent with the design guidelines of Vision 2001 -2020, and use limited land resources efficiently. o Commercial and residential zoning districts should be defined to provide compatible transitions between land uses. Residential Development Policies and Actions • Maintain a range of housing options throughout the neighborhood. • Protect Greater Raleigh Court's traditional character and its property values, upholding the neighborhood's desirability as a place for families and individuals to live. • Infill development should be aesthetically and functionally compatible with the architecture and design of the surrounding development. • Protect the value of existing homes by ensuring that new residential development is compatible with the architectural character of the surrounding neighborhood. Infrastructure Policies and Actions o New developments and arterial and collector streets should have urban amenities such as sidewalks, curb and gutter. Appropriate species of trees should be planted as a part of such improvements. o Streetscapes should be well maintained, attractive and functional for pedestrian, bicycle and motor vehicle traffic. There is a conflict between the comprehensive and Franklin Road /Colonial Avenue Plan in that the neighborhood plan suggests that the future land use be single - family medium density, while the comprehensive plan states higher densities of development should be concentrated around existing or planned mixed -use neighborhood commercial areas, with housing density decreasing away from the village center. It also states that all new residential development is recommended to follow traditional neighborhood development patterns with no greater than medium sized (5 -7,000 square foot) lots. When there is a conflict in development at the edges and transitions between zoning districts, the architectural form (scale, roof form, entrance and windows, materials, and detailing) and placement of the buildings can be useful in reconciling the disparity. Therefore, although the location between two village center areas is appropriate for a higher density residential use than currently zoned, the redevelopment of a vacant or underused residential site must be done in a manner that reinforces the physical and social fabrics of the surrounding existing neighborhoods. The current development plan, while addressing most of the critical items of development pattern, leaves some items remaining to be addressed in terms of architectural form and signage to fully address the physical and social fabric of the neighborhood. Public Comment Summary Based on the high volume of public comment received on this application, the comments received are enclosed as Attachment A, as amended at the public hearing to include additional comments received through S:OOpm on April 7th. Some comments are general, do not like apartments, and are concerned about property value and crime. Other comments specific to development relate to traffic, the number of units, and the design of the buildings and site. See Attachment A Planning Commission Work Session (January 6 2017 and February 10 2017) The following items were discussed in the Planning Commission Work Session and should be addressed for compliance with City policy and ordinances. The density proposed is too large an increase around this village center area based on recommendations that this property should only be medium density residential density in the neighborhood plan; recommend density no greater than 36 dwelling units (current feasible density in R -7 is about 24 dwelling units, 54 are currently proposed) Traditional and suburban neighborhood infill should reflect traditional development pattern. The front yard setback is too small and should be increased to better reflect the surrounding neighborhood (aver. 32ft around intersection). The massing is too large and would be better in smaller buildings. See the City of Roanoke Residential Pattern Book for ideas on how this has been successfully dealt with in the past. Buildings should face the street with an entrance feature in lieu of a gap in building for an entry Transportation as shown in the current plan is not supportable. Access at the westernmost entrance must include a barrier on Brandon Avenue to preclude the left turn out and a westbound left turn lane to remove vehicles turning left into the development from the existing left turn lane for Brambleton. A channelized island in the entrance to preclude the left turn out will be insufficient. Public and private streets should have sidewalks and be lined with trees Add language regarding trees along Brandon and shrubs to screen parking areas Clarify conformity language The Applicant subsequently filed Amended Application No. 1 addressing the architectural form of the buildings. Planning Commission Work Session (March 10 201 7) The following items were discussed in the Planning Commission Work Session and should be addressed for compliance with City policy and ordinances. Density shown is an increase from the medium density recommendation in the neighborhood plan, but complies with the general recommendation in the comprehensive plan. (Based on staff calculations, current feasible density in R -7 is about 33 dwelling units, 54 are currently proposed) Traditional and suburban neighborhood infill should reflect a traditional development pattern. The front yard setback is small and would be better if increased to better reflect the surrounding neighborhood. There was substantial discussion regarding the importance of the buildings reflecting the form, scale, pattern of openings, and materials that are reflected in the development plan and included elevations. Clarify conformity language to state "Architectural requirements for building design shall be in substantial conformance with the...... And, remove the following statement "Materials or colors may differ based on owner's preference." Note "Existing trees to remain" on the parcel marked "Conserved Open Space ". The current development plan will be interpreted as follows: "The area with no built form shown on the plan may only be utilized for passive recreation areas. This means that although you may have walking trails, moveable picnic tables, and such in that area, no built structures would be allowed, including but not limited to a picnic shelter, pool, gazebo, lighting, etc." Therefore, if you want to have built structures as part of your amenities for the development, you need to show it on the development plan now. Public and private streets should have sidewalks and be lined with trees. Add additional trees along the northern side of the private street. Add symbols and language regarding trees and shrubs: Large deciduous trees shall be planted and maintained at 40' -0 "on center, Evergreen shrubs, a minimum of 18 inches in height at the time of planting, shall be planted and maintained every 2 -3 feet on center. • Include all perpendicular parking spaces directly off of the private street (behind Building A and C) in the private street parcel. • Revise note "Wooden guardrail or other physical barrier to be provided along the entire length of south side of private street or drive aisles." The Applicant subsequently provided traffic analysis data to fully address the concern regarding the effect on traffic. The applicant then filed Amended Application No.2 addressing the conservation area in the southern end of the property, recreation area in the center of the property, landscaping, and conformance language. Conclusions and Recommendations In analyzing the impact of the proposed development, a proposal is compared to what could be developed under the current zoning regulations, not the current situation of a vacant parcel. Some of the items that have been examined to compare what impact the property, if developed by right, would have on the surrounding area versus the development pattern proposed in the rezoning request are: density, building form, and traffic. These are the items that we repeatedly heard were important from the public as well. Density: As previously noted, the property is located at a junction between three neighborhoods immediately adjacent to two village center areas. The density of the proposed development is compatible for a higher density residential area transitioning from a village center to a single family residential area. The increase in density for the entirety of the parcel is relatively minor with proposed development providing approximately 6,100 square feet of lot area per dwelling unit in place of the currently required 7,000 square feet per dwelling unit. It is important to note that the properties just to the north of Brandon Avenue only require 3,500 square feet per dwelling unit. Building Form: However, although higher density residential areas are recommended in the comprehensive plan in such locations, they must be done in a manner that reinforces the physical and social fabrics of the surrounding existing neighborhoods. No specific guide for the design of multifamily building types exists in the comprehensive plan or neighborhood plan. Using rationals from our Urban Design Manual, Residential Pattern Book (completed in 2008) referenced in later neighborhood plans, Neighborhood Design Overlay District, and good planning practice, we compared the proposed development form to the by -right form allowed in the adjacent commercial neighborhood area and surrounding residential areas. 10 The development pattern in the form and massing of the proposed development is compatible for a higher density residential area transitioning from a village center to a single family residential area with a few noted exceptions. The front yard setback at eight feet is less than the minimum 20 feet required for the current R -7 District but greater than the zero foot setback allowed in the adjacent CN District. The setback is also sensitive to the desire to leave a buffer along Murray Run that traverses the center of the property. The side yard setback is five feet or greater as noted on the development plan in place of the three foot setback required for the current R -7 District and the zero foot setback allowed in the adjacent CN District. The height of the buildings at three stories is compatible with the majority of the two story dwellings within the existing neighborhood areas. Furthermore, the form of the buildings is broken down into modules with separate roof forms that are approximately 150 percent of the size of the single family dwellings that populate the traditional neighborhood north of the site. This size is an appropriate transition between the scale of buildings allowed in commercial neighborhood areas to the scale of buildings permitted in the surrounding residential areas. There is an easily recognizable and accessible primary entrance that faces Brandon Avenue. The ample window openings that are vertically and horizontally aligned are appropriate for the area as depicted on the front building elevations. The materials proposed for the first floor are structurally durable. And, the vehicular accommodations are to the rear and side of the buildings in a manner that respects the traditional residential neighborhood precedent. However, there is concern that the same level of windows, detailing, and materiality as shown on the front elevations be used on all four sides of the buildings. Traffic: The traffic engineering review includes an assessment of the traffic volume expected to be generated by potential development and the impact of that projected traffic volume on adjacent street traffic. The Institute of Transportation Engineers publishes the Trip Generation Manual, which is the national standard by which traffic volume projections are made for various types of land uses. In this case, a comparison is made between the by -right use of the property and the proposed use under the rezoning request. In examining the by- right -use of the property per the R -7 District, the zoning ordinance requires 7,000 square feet of lot area per lot. Any lands normally submerged underwater are not included in computing the allowable number of dwelling units for any lot. So, in looking at the property at 0 Brandon, 7.5639 acres, one must remove only the stream (area normally submerged under water) and any roadway improvements to access the rear of the property. The property area in the floodway and floodplain may be used to meet the minimum lot areas. Staff took a conservative look at the developable number of lots, by removing the entire floodway from the developable area for an approximation of 6.28 acres out of the floodway. We then looked at the percentage of roadway in the adjacent traditional neighborhood areas (15%) and removed it from the potentially developable area for 5.338 developable acres (70.67% of the overall site). That number divided by 7,000sf /lot equals 33.21 dwelling units. (Please note that this would lead to a development of the entirety of the parcel at a much lower density then recommended by the comprehensive plan at approximately I0,000sf per dwelling unit for the entirety of the parcel.) Therefore, with this conservative estimate, under the current zoning 33 lots with single family homes could be built on this property. And, this number could be higher if some of the floodway area was utilized for required lot square footage and the amount of property dedicated to roadway was reduced. Based on the lot frontage along Brandon, 13 of those lots could directly abut Brandon Avenue with pull -in, back -out driveways for each property as seen to the east along Brandon. Brandon Lane could then be developed for remaining access to the property area in the rear. Based on this determination that 33 single family homes could likely be constructed, a comparison can be made with the developer's proposal to construct 54 apartment units. Based on the guidelines included in the ITE Trip Generation Manual, single family homes generate approximately 9.52 trips per dwelling unit per weekday and approximately 1.0 trip per dwelling unit during the afternoon peak hour of the adjacent street. (The peak hour of the adjacent street is used so that an assessment can be made of the impacts on the adjacent street during its busiest time.) Apartments generate approximately 6.65 trips per dwelling unit per weekday and approximately 0.62 trips per dwelling unit during the afternoon peak hour of the adjacent street. In this case, construction of 33 single family homes would be expected to generate approximately 31 5 trips during each weekday and 33 trips during the afternoon peak hour. If the area was developed with 54 apartment units, these apartments would be expected to generate approximately 360 trips during each workday and 33 trips during the afternoon peak hour. The focus of traffic analyses is typically on the peak hour of traffic with the belief that if traffic can be accommodated during the peak hour, traffic can be accommodated during off peak periods. Afternoon peak hours generally carry more traffic than do morning peak hours. The Trip Generation Manual reflects this and projects fewer trips during the morning than the afternoon. Thus, the afternoon peak hour is the period of the day analyzed rather than the morning peak. The 45 additional daily trips projected for the apartment development are spread throughout the day and would not be expected to have any significant effect on adjacent street traffic. It is important to note that the 33 projected peak hour trips include vehicles both entering and leaving the site. According to the Manual, 65% of the vehicles during the peak hour or approximately 21 vehicles would be expected 12 to enter the site during the afternoon peak hour. Thirty five percent of the vehicles or approximately 12 vehicles would leave the site during the afternoon peak hour. Further and consistent with traffic patterns on Brandon Avenue, approximately 60% of the traffic during the afternoon peak is headed west along Brandon. Accordingly, 60% of the entering vehicles in the afternoon or approximately 13 westbound vehicles would be expected to turn left into the site. The remaining eight vehicles would turn right into the site heading east. Thus, the primary concern from a traffic standpoint is how to address the 13 vehicles expected to turn left into the site during the afternoon peak hour. Sufficient pavement width exists today in Brandon Avenue to reallocate that space and include a separate left turn lane into the site. In the westbound direction on Brandon, the existing through lane along Brandon and the existing left turn lane to Brambleton Avenue will remain. An additional left turn lane will be provided to accommodate vehicles turning left into the site. The two eastbound through lanes on Brandon Avenue will also remain and will be relocated slightly to the south to provide space for the new westbound left turn lane. The left turn lane into the site provides space for entering vehicles to move out of the left turn lane for Brambleton Avenue. Gaps in eastbound traffic are available and will allow left turning vehicles to cross the eastbound traffic lanes and enter the site. In summary, the traffic that is expected to be generated by the proposed development is approximately the same as the traffic that would be expected if the property was developed according to conservative estimates based on the current R -7 district zoning. The proposed development has the added benefit of fewer entrances /exits onto Brandon and the addition of a protected turn lane to mitigate impacts to traffic operations along Brandon Avenue. Other Items: It is also important to note that the tree canopy coverage as proposed (over 36 percent based on the conserved open space parcel alone) far exceeds the coverage that would be required under the current zoning district of 20 percent. And that allowing the dwelling units to all be placed on the northern side of Murray Run provides for the large natural area to the south of Murray Run to be preserved and allows a place for the possible future greenway along the waterway. Overall, the proposed development is appropriate for this parcel adjacent to two village centers and across the street from higher mixed density residential. Notwithstanding the apparent conflict with the future land use designation of the parcel, staff believes that the location is appropriate for higher- density residential development. The comprehensive plan clearly recommends higher density within and near village centers. Neighborhood plans, either explicitly or by reference, have advocated this development pattern over many years because of the symbiotic relationship created by proximity. This consistent message, reinforced in most neighborhood plans, is a compelling reason to support higher density on this parcel because of its proximity to existing village 13 center development. The two noted exceptions to the compatibility with the surrounding neighborhoods are that the same level of windows, detailing, and materiality as shown on the front elevations be used on all four sides of the buildings and that signage be appropriate for the site's relationship to the surrounding residential area. Planning Commission Public Hearing (April 12 2017) Sharon Burnham, 901 Oakwood Drive, stated that she has concerns about traffic, the inconsistency of the size and scale of the development with the surrounding neighborhood, and that people already use her private driveway (that connects the public Oakwood Drive to the private Oakwood Drive that extends from the private road named Brandon Lane off of 23" Street) as a cut - through and will do so more if the development occurs. She noted that the undeveloped street shown on the development plan should be named Sherwood Extension in place of Brandon Lane. Dian Tapscott, 1019 Sherwood, stated that she is Vice - President of Wasena Neighborhood Forum and that the neighborhood voted unanimously against it. She stated that this is a horrible place to put apartments with no left turn. She stated that the proposed garden -style apartments with breezeways and no security are not what young professionals want and they would be forced to walk to Towers with their back to traffic. She stated that the adjoining commercial areas are not neighborhood centers as there are no sidewalks there. She stated that the entire forest will come down and urban heat will be a concern with the proposed development. She stated that Raleigh Court Neighborhood, Grandin Court Neighborhood, and the President's Council of the Roanoke Valley Neighborhood Associations all voted against it. She suggested the developer build the apartments at Colonial Green. Sara Lukens, 908 Howbert Street, stated that she moved to Roanoke as one of the young professionals coming to Roanoke to work as a data scientist at GE because she loves it here. She stated the explanation from the traffic engineer seemed much more sound than that published in the newspaper and that she would defer to his concerns. She stated that she does not want to speak for or against this, but about missing information in making the bridge between young professionals and market research. She questioned why young professionals would want to live here at this cost. She stated that no safe access exists to the greenway, downtown, or bikeshare and that more information and analysis is needed. Carol Mayberry, 2614 Oak Hill Lane, stated that she loves the area because of nature and trees. She stated that when working for Carilion for 16 years, most people came here because they loved the Blue Ridge Mountains and hiking. She stated that she would like to see this area as a greenway and with the increased pollution many cities are planting trees and shrubs. She stated that she is concerned with stormwater pollution if the area is not kept green. She stated 14 that her second concern is traffic, not in the evening, but in the morning between 6:30am and 9:OOam and in the afternoon at 3:OOpm. She requested that traffic at those times be addressed and that the City keep Roanoke green. Susan Martin, acting president of Raleigh Court Neighborhood Association, stated that she represents the members who are mostly opposed, with 3 or 4 members who are in favor of the development. Mim Young, 1809 Westover Avenue SW, stated that this is not her neighborhood, but is her community and that she is part of the Save The Woodlands Committee and that she is against the project. She stated that the neighborhood plans had visioning and input from the community and show what should be here. She stated that the community knows when something does not fit the character of the neighborhood. She stated that the only traffic problems in Roanoke City are at Elm and here and questioned if this development would make traffic here worse. She stated that the creek floods in the backyards of people further downstream and questioned if this development would make it worse. She stated that neighborhoods should retain their charm and that although density is popular now, this will define the neighborhood and not neighborhood charm Ann Sauls, 1206 Kerns Avenue SW, stated that traffic is impossible in the morning as she sits through three cycles of the light trying to turn left from Main Street to Brandon. She stated that the City promotes green space and waterways, but that the developer has said he will buy and develop the property for either this or single family houses by right. She stated that Murray Run is an important waterway in the neighborhood and contributes to the Roanoke River. She closed with the saying "Only when the last tree has been cut, the last fish been caught, and the last river poisoned, will we realize that we cannot eat money." David Charles Campbell, 1043 Oakwood Drive SW, stated that he is appreciative of staff and all he has learned about due process and systems of how this has come about. He stated that Oakwood Drive is one of Roanoke's best kept secrets and that one hundred years ago City Fathers set aside green space as points of punctuation for rest and repose for the community. He stated that he has several concerns including: clear absence of detailed review process, details regarding the buffer zone on the south side of Murray Run, the stream itself, and the absence for detail in the process even here today. He stated that he knows of no young professional who can pay 900 to 1200 dollars per month or would choose this apartment eight feet from the sidewalk on Brandon Avenue with 16- 20,000 cars per day. He stated that realistically young people are moving to South County and towards Floyd County, not to the center of town. Sheila Sexton, 1657 Brandon Avenue, stated that every house has its own character in their neighborhood and is not a cookie cutter development. She stated that as a mother of two young professionals that this is not the kind of 15 housing they choose to live in. She stated that they do not want any more multifamily development as these two projects will drive more traffic by her home and that it is already a traffic nightmare. She stated that traffic will increase from this and the proposed apartments at Shenandoah Life and that she is opposed purely from a traffic perspective. Walt Derey, 939 Oakwood Drive SW, stated that traffic is his main concern. He stated that development of the backside, where a steep slope exists may not be feasible for our comparison, even if it is possible. He stated that if the developer balances the fill onsite, then there will be a four to eight foot drop -off in elevation from Brandon Avenue and that it will not look like the proposed elevations. He stated that power lines exist on the site and trees will have to be cut back. He questioned how the stormwater into Murray Run will be dealt with as there is flooding on both ends of the property after hard rain. He stated that after a hard rain on Brandon Avenue that one of the lanes is not even open and that traffic stacking will be adversely affected by those things. Martha Good, 936 Oakwood Drive SW, dittoed what had already been said about green spaces and noted that the City itself added a green roof to the municipal building downtown. She stated that Oakwood Drive is one way in and one way out and that people take Persinger and Colonial instead to avoid the backup at Brandon. She stated that with the growth at VWCC and Towers Mall that the traffic backs up and it is hard to get out of the neighborhood. She stated that people on Oakwood have made huge investments and that her biggest fear is in five to ten years that there will be empty apartment buildings. Barbara Duerk, 2607 Rosalind Avenue, stated that "What is good is not always right, what is right is not always good." She stated that she is concerned based on her and her family's travels through this intersection. She stated that the property is not contiguous to a village center. She stated that the sidewalk would need to be enlarged to create a multi -use opportunity to move people and pets through the area connecting the greenway. She stated that a 1997 study showed that connections of green pearls along Murray Run were important. She stated that Murray Run does need to be a part of storm water mitigation. She stated that because of the backup and the time spent at this intersection that this intersection needs to be remodeled into a roundabout. She stated this area does need to be developed, but should be developed responsibly. John Harlow, 1024 Oakwood Drive SW, stated that analysis aside, traffic as right out only is a concern as drivers are going to have to turn around to go the opposite way. He stated that we have more than a one percent chance of back up with this because we already do. He stated that the Planning Commission is the safety net and that the City must look at the bigger picture including Shenandoah Life. He stated that we all must go through here and it is going to be an issue. He stated that this is an exceptional project as it is a project of exceptions to make it work, with the cutting back of setbacks, mostly hill, 16 floodplain, river, and development along the front. He stated that "If it doesn't fit, you cannot permit." Freeda Cathcart, 2516 Sweetbrier Avenue SW, stated that the Grandin Court Neighborhood Association and President's Council unanimously voted against this rezoning because neighborhoods care if you change the zoning against the neighborhood plans. She stated that there are valid concerns about the floodplain and pollution that would wash downstream if that happened. She stated that they have a great neighborhood at Colonial Green, near Ogden road, that would be the appropriate place for apartments. She stated that young professionals grow into middle age people with kids and want single family homes. She stated that there are benefits to trees within a community and smart growth. Bill Foster, 1916 Sheffield Road SW, stated that he has lived here for 41 years and that traffic does not get better. He stated that he hears the squeal of tires almost every day at the Sherwood/ Main and Brandon /Brambleton intersection. He questioned if Shenandoah does develop, what would happen with traffic at this intersection. He stated that flooding along Murray Run happens once or twice a summer with Lakewood Park flooding into Brandon Avenue and a swamp down at the other end. He questioned what would happen down there with this development. He stated that he loves the proposed development, but not there due to the traffic and the flood zone. Richard Tremaine, 1010 Winona Avenue SW, stated that he is new to the area, not as a young professional, but as an old professional. He stated that he has fresh eyes and a different perspective and shoe the location as he walks to the parks, Downtown, and the shopping center. He stated that the proposed apartment residents are never going to walk to the Tap Room in the town center in Wasena as there is no crosswalk to cross Brandon Avenue. He stated that people are not going to walk to Kroger or the adjacent village center areas as it is not a walking neighborhood. He stated that rezoning is only done to foster and forward a comprehensive plan. He stated that density is good for walkable town centers, but that this is not the case for this proposal. He said the development looks good, but not in this location. He stated that he has owned rental property, but that this is just the wrong spot and the wrong reason to rezone. Adele Carliss, Raleigh Court, stated that she purchased her home because of the beautiful, historic neighborhood with greenery that is a safe place for children to grow up. She stated that the proposed plan for traffic is flawed. She stated that 1.5 parking spaces per dwelling unit is reasonable, but does not understand where the 33 trips per peak hour came from. She stated that people in the apartments will have two cars and that there is not even going to be enough parking spaces for them. She questioned that if left hand turns are not allowed out of the apartments then how would the people go to Patrick Henry, Grandin Village, and stores on Brandon without cutting through Raleigh 17 Court on the narrow Sherwood Avenue by the school zone at Wasena Elementary with children loading buses and playing on the playground. Kathy Greenberg spoke for Ginger Morris of 2625 Oak Hill Lane SW. She stated that 5.3 acres were used in the calculation for development to achieve 33 single family homes. She stated that the proposed apartments use only 3.3 acres of the parcel creating a feeling of crowdedness. She noted that the by right development of 3.3 acres is 24 single family houses. She noted that 53% of people in the City of Roanoke own their own home while 60% own their own home in the Commonwealth of Virginia. She noted that homeownership in the City has declined 14.97% in the last four years. She noted that the designation of village center is arbitrary as it is not pedestrian friendly with no sidewalks. E Duane Howard, 1221 6th Street SE, stated that future traffic does not match traffic studies, but always exceeds it. He stated that he is concerned about more traffic, people cutting through the neighborhood by the school, a lack of parking spaces for the development, the inclusion of visitors in traffic counts, the number of trips coming and going, and another increased traffic point. He stated that he was born on Welton Avenue, knows the area, and hopes the Commission listens to the concerns of the residents. Kirsten Dooley, 1921 Main Street, came to the podium, but made no comment. Constance Corey, 1015 Oakwood Drive SW, came to the podium, but made no comment. Monica Stover, 1 101 Oakwood Drive SW, stated that she just moved there in January and represents the young professionals spoken of today. She stated that the proposed development would have kept her from purchasing her home. She stated that these apartments would not attract young professionals. She stated that there may be future vacancy due to local job losses and questioned what would happen if the apartments do not rent. Commissioners, the applicant, and staff discussed: how the site could be developed by right with at least 33 single family dwellings with multiple access points and the impacts on the surrounding area, how fill would be used to bring the buildings up to street level as shown on the site plan, how an area is left for a possible future greenway development by the City on the southern side of Murray Run, how stormwater regulations would regulate stormwater from the proposed development, how floodplain regulations would be met by elevating buildings above the 100 year floodplain, the analysis of traffic from the proposed development and the impact from it on the surrounding neighborhoods, whether a possible development of Shenandoah Life should affect this rezoning decision, the feasibility of a roundabout in this location, whether subsidized housing is being proposed here, the feasibility of 33 and more dwelling units in a by -right development, the appropriateness of higher density residential development immediately adjacent to village center areas in up this location, the appropriateness of the architectural form of the buildings in a transition area between a village center and surrounding single family dwellings, the streetscape along the frontage of this property and how it links to surrounding properties. Of particular importance to the Commissioners were: the target market for the apartments; the proposed architecture of the buildings, the substantial conformity of what will be developed to the development plans and elevations; the elevation of the ground floor of the buildings matching the adjoining sidewalk at street level along Brandon Avenue as is depicted in the development plan and elevation drawings by the absence of retaining walls on the plans and noted by the developer in his presentation of fill on the parts of the site as needed to achieve this; the preservation of the steep slope on the southern end of the parcel as undeveloped with the existing trees to remain; the lesser impact on traffic of the proposed development than would occur through the by -right development; the streetscape of the six foot planting strip with large deciduous trees, five foot sidewalk, and eight foot front yard setback; and an adequate number of parking spaces for the proposed dwelling units. Commissioner Katz stated that after studying the site and thinking about the options for the property as only by right development or what is proposed (and not requiring an owner to donate their property to the public with no development), understanding from experts that traffic will be approximately the same with fewer access points with the proposed development, for these reasons she plans to support the application. Commissioner Russell stated that after working on this project for months, Fralin Company has done a great job changing the architecture and the preservation of the woodlands to the south of Murray Run. He stated that the only options are by -right development of single family homes with driveways and roads or the proposed multifamily development project, and not the City taking over this green space by eminent domain. He stated that the whole thing goes back to the traffic issue in an area where traffic is not good and which is better for the City. He stated that his decision in how to vote will be based on what is best for the City. Commissioner Atwood stated that this is a difficult decision that has been studied at many meetings and not lightly or easily made. She stated that Mr. Fralin has repeatedly returned to address the concerns presented. Commissioner Penn thanked everyone for participating in the process. She stated that the comprehensive plan is the guiding document that will guide her vote. Commissioner Smith stated that this is a tough decision and thanked everyone for their participation. He stated that he has to look at the facts and numbers, Roanoke is growing and the City has a great comprehensive plan that 19 accommodates that future growth. He stated staff has done a great job putting all of this information together and for all of these reasons he will be voting to move this on to City Council with a positive recommendation.

REZONING REQUEST NARRATIVE: This request is being made on behalf of R. Fralin Companies, Inc. (contract purchaser) to rezone Tax Parcel 1250801 from R -7 (Residential Single- Family) to MXPUD (Mixed Use Planned Unit Development District) to allow for multi- family development on the property. The total acreage being rezoned is 7.56 acres + / -. The property is currently vacant with an existing creek, Murray Run, crossing the property. This rezoning request allows for the development of the property as residential, multi - family. The attached Development Plan (EX -A) and site rendering (EX -B) show the layout of the proposed improvements on the site. The proposed development includes four new multi - family buildings, with a total of 54 dwelling units. The development plan concentrates the proposed building and parking improvements along the public right -of -way of Brandon Avenue. This allows the balance of the site, including the existing creek, to remain in its current condition. The Conserved Open Space Parcel, consisting of approximately 2.75 acres, will be preserved as conserved open space and the elevation changes afforded by the existing topography will act to further buffer the project from the surrounding neighborhood. The proposed buildings are three stories tall and will be located along the frontage of Brandon Avenue. The community parking area will be primarily located behind the buildings. The buildings will be accessible from the public right -of- -way and from the interior parking area. Conceptual perspective views of two buildings are provided in the rezoning package as Exhibits C and D. The buildings have been located and designed with an architectural quality to provide a positive and inviting community while maintaining an appropriate scale for this area. This design hierarchy will provide an appropriate transition between the commercial property to the west and the residential property to the east. The architectural designs of the proposed buildings have been shown to provide appropriate building patterns, materials, and styles to ensure an attractive development that complements the surrounding community. Entry features and sidewalk connections are shown for each building to improve the streetscape and pedestrian connectivity along Brandon Avenue. The site will be accessed via two proposed entrances on Brandon Avenue. The first entrance will be a right -in, right -out, left -in only entrance on the western side of the property. Left -out movements will not be allowed at this location in order to enhance the safety of the entrance and to maintain traffic flow along Brandon Avenue. A dedicated left turn lane will be constructed to separate vehicular traffic accessing the development from traffic accessing Brambleton Avenue further to the west. The second entrance will be a right -in, right -out only entrance on the eastern side of the property. Left turns in and out are physically restricted by the existing traffic median. Pedestrian accommodations are provided along Brandon Avenue and throughout die proposed development through the provision of sidewalks and street trees that provide connectivity between the buildings, parking areas, and the adjacent public street. This project is consistent with the goals and initiatives outlined in the Comprehensive Plan. According to the Comprehensive Plan, "higher densities of development should be concentrated around existing or planned mixed -use neighborhood commercial areas, with housing densities decreasing away from the village center." The proposed project creates a positive transitional use between the existing neighborhood commercial uses to the west and single - family residential properties to the east. On behalf of R. Fralin Companies, Inc., we are requesting approval of this application for rezoning. This project will allow a previously vacant and undeveloped site to be improved with a compatible and site - sensitive design, while providing the community with needed and desired housing options.

REZONING REQUEST NARRATIVE: This request is being made on behalf of R. Fralin Companies, Inc. (contract purchaser) to rezone Tax Parcel 1250801 from R -7 (Residential Single - Family) to MXPUD (Mixed Use Planned Unit Development District) to allow for multi - family development on the property. The total acreage being rezoned is 7.56 acres + / -. The property is currently vacant with an existing creek, Murray Run, crossing the property. This rezoning request allows for the development of the property as residential, multi- family. The attached Development Plan (EX -A) and site rendering (EX -B) show the layout of the proposed improvements on the site. The proposed development includes four new multi- family buildings, with a total of 54 dwelling units. The development plan concentrates the proposed building and parking improvements along the public right -of -way of Brandon Avenue. This allows the balance of the site, including the existing creek, to remain in its current condition. The Conserved Open Space Parcel, consisting of approximately 2.75 acres, will be preserved as conserved open space and the elevation changes afforded by the existing topography will act to further buffer the project from the surrounding neighborhood. The proposed buildings are three stories tall and will be located along the frontage of Brandon Avenue. The community parking area will be primarily located behind the buildings. The buildings will be accessible from the public right -of -way and from the interior parking area. Conceptual perspective views of two buildings are provided in the rezoning package as Exhibits C and D. The buildings have been located and designed with an architectural quality to provide a positive and inviting community while maintaining an appropriate scale for this area. This design hierarchy will provide an appropriate transition between the commercial property to the west and the residential property to the east. The architectural designs of the proposed buildings have been shown to provide appropriate building patterns, materials, and styles to ensure an attractive development that complements the surrounding community. Entry features and sidewalk connections are shown for each building to improve the streetscape and pedestrian connectivity along Brandon Avenue. The site will be accessed via two proposed entrances on Brandon Avenue. The first entrance will be a right -in, right -out, left -in only entrance on the western side of the property. Left -out movements will not be allowed at this location in order to enhance the safety of the entrance and to maintain traffic flow along Brandon Avenue. A dedicated left turn lane will be constructed to separate vehicular traffic accessing the development from traffic accessing Brambleton Avenue further to the west. The second entrance will be a right -in, right -out only entrance on the eastern side of the property. Left turns in and out are physically restricted by the existing traffic median. Pedestrian accommodations are provided along Brandon Avenue and throughout the proposed development through the provision of sidewalks and street trees that provide connectivity between the buildings, parking areas, and the adjacent public street. This project is consistent with the goals and initiatives outlined in the Comprehensive Plan. According to the Comprehensive Plan, "higher densities of development should be concentrated around existing or planned mixed -use neighborhood commercial areas, with housing densities decreasing away from the village center." The proposed project creates a positive transitional use between the existing neighborhood commercial uses to the west and single - family residential properties to the east. On behalf of R. Fralin Companies, Inc., we are requesting approval of this application for rezoning. This project will allow a previously vacant and undeveloped site to be improved with a compatible and site- sensitive design, while providing the community with needed and desired housing options.

REZONING REQUEST NARRATIVE: This request is being made on behalf of R. Fralin Companies, Inc. (contract purchaser) to rezone Tax Parcel 1250801 from R -7 (Residential Single- Family) to MXPUD (Mixed Use Planned Unit Development District) to allow for multi - family development on the property. The total acreage being rezoned is 7.56 acres + / -. The property is currently vacant with an existing creek, Murray Run, crossing the property. This rezoning request allows for the development of the property as residential, multi - family. The attached Development Plan (EX -A) and site rendering (EX-13) show the layout of the proposed improvements on the site. The proposed plan concentrates the proposed improvements along the public right -of -way of Brandon Avenue. This allows the balance of the site, including the existing creek, to remain in its current condition. Parcel D, consisting of approximately 3.16 acres, will be preserved as conserved open space and the elevation changes afforded by the existing topography will act to further buffer the project from the surrounding neighborhood. The proposed plan includes four new multi - family buildings, with a total of 54 dwelling units. The buildings are three stories tall and will be located along the frontage of Brandon Avenue. The community parking area will be primarily located behind the buildings. The buildings will be accessible from the public right-of- -way and from the interior parking area. Conceptual perspective views of two buildings are provided in the rezoning package as Exhibits C and D. The buildings have been located and designed with an architectural quality to provide a positive and inviting community while maintaining an appropriate scale for the proposed buildings. This design hierarchy will provide an appropriate transition between the commercial property to the west and the residential property to the east. The architectural designs of the proposed buildings have been shown to provide appropriate building patterns, materials, and styles to ensure an attractive development that complements the surrounding community. Entry features and sidewalk connections are shown for each building to improve the streetscape and pedestrian connectivity along Brandon Avenue.

That portion of the property is zoned IN, Institutional District. The surrounding property is part of Fallon Park and is zoned ROS, Recreation and Open Space District. In the fall of 2016, the applicant met with staff to discuss the possibility of rezoning the property to allow for the renovation of the existing elementary school. The applicant then filed a continuance request to allow the school district time to consider all design options for the site. In the spring of 2017, the applicant filed Amended Application No. 1 to rezone the property to allow for construction of a new elementary school at the site. Development Plan In a planned unit development district, all development must be in substantial conformance with the development plan, if approved, and other applicable standards of the zoning ordinance (e.g., landscaping and screening). Considerations Existing neighborhood schools are an important cornerstone of any community and the flexibility of site design to allow a new school to be built at a site while the existing school building is still in use is important to maintain its place within the community. Surrounding Zoning and Land Use: District e NoRecreation and Open Space on and Open Space, Single - ict and RM -1, Residential etached dwellings, d Densit District il dwellin s, and Vacant So Recreation and Open Space ion and Open Space, Single - AW ict and RM -1 , Residential KRWRe etached dwellings, and d Densit District il dwellin s Ea Recreation and Open Space ion and Open Space ict and Tinker Creek We, Residential Mixed Density Single- family detached dwellings , ict Two dwellings, and Vacant Compliance with the Zoning Ordinance: The purposes of the INPUD District are to encourage harmonious development of institutional uses and mixed -use campus developments, to provide flexibility for creative development, to minimize potential negative impacts of institutional uses on neighboring uses, and to recognize the special complexity and interrelationships of land uses and activities in these institutional complexes. In a Planned Unit Development District, many of the dimensional regulations are defined by the PUD development plan. The proposed development plan displays the required information through graphics and text. Signage is regulated in the PUD district by what is specified on the development plan or is the same as CG when not specified by the development plan. The signage standards are noted on the development plan. The future development of the property is subject to dimensional and development standards of the zoning ordinance. The overall property has sections located within the F, Floodplain Overlay District. As such, any development of the property must meet the floodplain management standards of that district. However, the particular area being rezoned is not in such an area. Conformity with the Comprehensive Plan and Neighborhood Plan: Both Vision 2001 -2020 and the Belmont - Fallon Neighborhood Plan recognize the need for the maintaining the existing schools as important parts of the community. Relevant Vision 2001 -2020 policies: EC P5. Trees. Roanoke will maintain and increase its tree canopy coverage as a way to improve air quality. Roanoke will work regionally to promote tree planting and tree preservation Valley -wide. PE Pl . Quality education. Roanoke's school system will be known for its quality education that prepares students for the workplace or with the skills and knowledge needed to succeed in higher education. Roanoke will maintain and improve its high - quality public education facilities and programs at all levels. PE P2. School facilities. School facilities are important community facilities. The location of new school facilities will be carefully planned to enhance the surrounding community and adhere to the City Design principles recommended- Relevant Belmont - Fallon Neighborhood Plan Policies The Belmont- Fallon Neighborhood Plan recognizes the importance of the elementary school at this location within the community in the future land use plan. It also speaks to the need for good streetscapes and reduced off - street parking areas within the community. Relevant policies and action items in the neighborhood plan include: Community Design Policies o Parking: Parking is recognized as a necessity, but should not be allowed to dominate any development. Parking should be located primarily on- street. Zoning regulations should consider the availability of on- street parking when determining appropriate levels of on -site parking. Where additional parking is warranted, it should be located to the rear or side of buildings. Moreover, where on -site parking is provided, it should use alley access whenever possible. Infrastructure Policies and Actions • Streetscapes, especially at gateways and along major transportation routes, will be attractive. Functionally, streets will accommodate autos, pedestrians, and bicycles. Trees should be used to create a canopy over streets, so large species of trees should be used whenever possible. • Initiate aggressive street tree planting, especially along major arterials and in village centers. Quality of Life Polices o Tree canopy throughout the neighborhood should be increased. The current development plan, while siting the school building farther back from the street than usual to accommodate the ability to maintain operations in the existing school while the new school is built, does address the street through the public entry space from the street and streetscaping additions of large deciduous trees and sidewalk along 191' Street. Public Comment Summary: There have been general inquiries regarding the project, but no comments. Planning Commission Work Session (November 11 2016 and March 10 2017): The following items were discussed in the Planning Commission Work Session and should be addressed for compliance with City policy and ordinances. • 20% tree canopy in parking area, as per section 36.2 -648, should be provided in place of the 10% overall tree canopy currently shown on the development plan. The following could be appropriate: 4 o Remove the note requiring 10% overall tree canopy and add the following note: "20% tree canopy will be provided in the existing parking area as per the City of Roanoke Zoning Ordinance, Section 36.2- 648." Add language to address signage. The following could be appropriate: o 'Any new signage on the INPUD portion of the property will conform to the requirements of the City of Roanoke Zoning Ordinance, Table 668 -1 , for the IN, Institutional District." Clarify the language concerning the landscaping as follows: o "Street trees shown graphically will be large deciduous trees spaced between 20 -40 feet on center." The Applicant subsequently filed Amended Application No. 1 , and addressed all of the comments. Conclusions and Recommendations: Overall, the development plan is consistent with the City's comprehensive and neighborhood plans while providing flexibility for the new school to be built while the existing school continues in use.

WASSOCIA1 ARCHITECTS 8- ENGINEERS PROJECT SUMMARY for Fallon Park Elementary School 50219'^ Street S.E. Tax Parcel R 4310101 October 31, 2016 February 3, 2017 (rev) March 17, 2017 (rev) prepared by: Hughes Associates Architects & Engineers 656 Elm Avenue Roanoke, Virginia 24016 (540) 342 -4002 Project Narrative Fallon Park Elementary School currently has an enrollment of more than 650 students in grades pre -K through 5 who are served by approximately 100 teachers, administrators and staff. The enrollment fluctuates by 5 to 7% throughout the year due to the transitional nature of their attendance zone. The main building on the school campus is a 69,4001 sf masonry and steel structure originally constructed in 1972. There are also three 2,0001 sf modular trailers on site. The building contains classrooms, a cafeteria /multi - purpose room, a gymnasium and administrative offices. The school also uses two 12 x 20 modular storage buildings. The site has 90 striped parking spaces and large contiguous unstriped area, all of which are used on a daily basis. Of the 90 spaces, 12 of them are in the front and two of these are handicapped reserved. The school is served by 11 Mountain Valley Transportation buses and two buses from private after- school programs. The buses pick up in the front bus loop and they drop off along the curb adjacent to the school on the north side of the building. Those travelling by car are dropped off in front of the school and picked up on the north side of the building The number of students attending Fallon Park has grown significantly over the last few years, but has leveled off this past year. The anticipated student enrollment will remain the same, but have facilities that can adequately serve a 10% increase. The Roanoke City School Board intends to continue occupying the school during the construction period and, therefore, to minimize class disruption, anticipates the expansion project will occur in two phases. Phase I construction is tentatively scheduled to start in December 2017 and will begin with the building the majority of the new school and the new parking area. Phase 11 will consist of demolishing the existing school, constructing the new bus loop, renovate the existing gymnasium and convert the existing cafeteria into classrooms. It is anticipated that Phase II construction may begin as early as summer 2019. Site work will consist of utility upgrades, including new fire hydrants and water service for the interior sprinkler system. The addition of two fire lanes, one on the south side and one on the north side and a new FDC and PIV. The asphalt pavement has reached the end of its service life and will be replaced and the parking area reconfigured to allow for 150± dedicated parking spaces. The site will be landscaped per the Roanoke City code for buffers and canopy. In addition, the school will have a vista originating on 19th street and terminating at the main entrance. The vista will have a wide concrete /brick sidewalk and landscaped with a variety of trees and shrubs. The types of trees and the quantity have yet to be determined. In general, the existing 75,400 sf of structures will be replaced by approximately 96,000 sf single structure. Traffic/ 19t° Street Improvements: Currently, we do not anticipate an increase in enrollment and it will remain in the neighborhood of 650± students. Therefore, we do not expect an increase in traffic. 19'h Street is curb and gutter with a sidewalk except for the northern portions. City Code requires the remaining portion, 145 feet or so to have curb and gutter and a sidewalk. All three of the new entrances will have the concrete aprons as required by City. Dale Avenue has a sidewalk and the street has curb and gutter. Yard Sign: The school will have a sign in the general area as the existing sign. The area of the sign will not exceed 32 square feet and will be less than six feet high. A separate permit from the City will be obtained prior to installing the sign. Landscaping: The plans provide an 8.0' wide parking buffer between the street and parking area that will consist of large and small deciduous trees and evergreen shrubs per table 648 -1 and table 649 -1. The parking area canopy will be a minimum of 20% of the parking area as specified in table 648 -1. Buffer trees, perimeter and street, within eight feet of the parking area will be used to meet the canopy requirements. Additionally, there are six trees shown on the schematic plan that are in the interior of the parking area. These trees maybe needed to meet canopy requirements. Additional trees, large and small, will be added as needed to meet the parking canopy requirements. The actual number, type and size of the trees will be determined during the development of construction documents. Site Lighting: The site currently has exterior lighting. The exterior lights shall be wall packs, bollard lights or pole lights. The exterior pole lights will consist of an 38' pole with the concrete base protruding 2' above the finished grade. The design will meet all code requirements, section 36.2 -625. utilities: The existing water line and meter appears to be adequate for the project. The utilities will remain the same except for the addition of fire lines for the new fire hydrants as needed. The water meter may need to be increased based of the fixture counts and this will be determined as the project progresses to construction documents. The existing sewer line will be reused. Fire Aaess /Fire Flows: The water supply on the site is adequate for the fire code requirements for the school which will be fully sprinkled. One or two new fire hydrants may be needed depending on the final location. Two 150' fire access lanes will be added, one along the western side and one on eastern side the of the school. Drainage: The school is on a knoll and drains in all directions. The site will have storm water management structures as needed to meet current code requirements and based on best management practices and economics. There are two existing storm water drainage systems originating at the top of the hill and they will be reused. It is likely that the site will use underground systems to meet the requirements as well as purchasing nutrient credits to meet water quality. The possible locations for the swm systems are shown on the schematic plan. The final locations will be determined as the site design progresses. The locations will be influenced by the presence of rock. Playground: The playground locations have not been determined as they will be determined as the site design progresses and also after the soil boings are completed. The locations will be influenced by the presence ofrock. Retaining Wall: The site may require a retaining wall along the back to provide a relatively level area for the playgrounds. The height will not exceed eight feet and it will be dependent on rock that maybe underling the soil. The wall will comply with section 36.2 -410. 91 HUG1It I AS`x(1)(19I I.` ARCHITECTS R.

Project Narrative Fallon Park Elementary School currently has an enrollment of more than 650 students in grades preK -5 who are served by 100 teachers, administrators and staff. The enrollment fluctuates by 5 to 7% throughout the year due to the transitional nature of their attendance zone. The main building on the school campus is a 69,400 sf masonry and steel structure originally constructed in 1972. There are also three 2,000 sf modular trailers on site. The building contains classrooms, a cafeteria /multi - purpose room, a gymnasium and administrative offices. The school also uses two 12 x 20 modular storage buildings. The site has 90 striped parking spaces and large contiguous unstriped area, all of which are used on a daily basis. Of the 90 spaces, 12 of them are in the front and two of these are handicapped reserved. The school is served by 11 Mountain Valley Transportation buses and two mini -buses from private after - school programs. The buses pick up in the front bus loop and they drop off along the curb adjacent to the school on the north side of the building. Those travelling by car are dropped off in front of the school and picked up on the north side of the building The number of students attending Fallon Park has grown significantly over the last few years, but has leveled off this past year. The anticipated student enrollment will remain the same, but have facilities that can adequately serve a 10% increase. The Roanoke City School Board intends to continue occupying the school during the construction period and, therefore, to minimize class disruption, anticipates the expansion project will occur in four phases. Phase I construction is tentatively scheduled to start in June 2017 and will begin with the new addition. The remaining phases will consist of remodeling the entire interior of the existing school. It is anticipated that Phase II construction may begin as early as spring 2018. Phase I development will include 24,500 sf single -story classroom /office addition. Site work will consist of improvements to accommodate construction traffic and staging, the addition of a fire lane on the southern side of the building, additional fire hydrants, a new FOC and PIV. The asphalt pavement has reached the end of its service life and will be replaced. No new parking areas are planned at this time and the existing parking area will be restriped to allow for 110 dedicated parking spaces. The remaining phases will include expanding and remodeling the kitchen /cafeteria, removing the existing courtyard and adding two additional courtyards, and remodeling of the remaining structure. Thephasing has not been finalized as it is based on constructability, available funding and enrollment. In general, the existing 75,400 sf of structures will increase to approximately 90,400 sf. Traffic/ 191h Street Improvements: The enrollment for the school will remain the same, with 6501 students. We do not anticipate an increase in traffic due to the renovations and additions. 191h Street is curb and gutter with a sidewalk except for the northern portions. City Code requires the remaining portion, 145 feet or so to have curb and gutter and a sidewalk. All four of the existing entrances will be upgraded and will have the concrete aprons as required by City. The remainder of the area has curb and gutter with a sidewalk along 19'" street and Dale Avenue. Landscaping: The two parking areas will remain as in except for replacing the asphalt and restriping. No additional landscaping for the parking areas are needed since they will not be enlarged. The existing sign and landscaped area will remain as is and all trees disturbed during construction will be replaced. Street trees will be added as required by City Code. These trees will be in the right -of -way and along the portion of 19'" Street adjacent to the zoning amendment. Site Lighting: The site currently has site lighting and the proposed plan will include site lighting for the parking areas, but the lighting plan is not part of this submission. A photometric plan and cut sheets for the lights will be included in the next submission. The design will meet all code requirements. Utilities: The existing water line and meter appears to be adequate for the project. The utilities will remain the same except for the addition of fire lines for the new fire hydrants as needed. The water meter may need to be increased based of the fixture counts and this will be determined as the project progresses to construction documents. Fire Access /Fire Flows: The water supply on the site is adequate for the fire code requirements for the school which will be fully sprinklered. One or two new fire hydrants may be needed depending on the final location. An additional 150' fire access lane will be added along the southern side of the school. Drainage: The school is on a knoll and drains In all directions. The site will have storm water management structures as needed to meet current code requirements and based on best management practices and economics. There are two existing storm water drainage systems originating at the top of the hill and they will be reused. It is likely that the site will use underground systems to meet the requirements as well as purchasing nutrient credits to meet water quality. HUGHES ASSOOATES Ersilriz mrvtr B'�mpw¢r ..

Recommendation The Planning Commission held a public hearing on Monday, April 10, 2017. By a vote of 6 - 0, the Commission recommended approval of the rezoning request, finding that the Original Application is consistent with the City's Comprehensive Plan, Williamson Road Area Plan, and Zoning Ordinance. The zoning of subject property, recently annexed from Roanoke County, will match that of the adjacent properties in the City and is consistent with how the property was zoned while situated in Roanoke County. -12) Application Information Re uest. Rezonin Owner: CFS -4 III LLC A lican[: Cit of Roanoke Authorized A ent: Ian D. Shaw Planning Commission A ent Cit Sta Person: Ian D. Shaw, Plannin Commission A ent Site 5401 Williamson Road, N.E. Address /Location: O icial Tax Nos.: 2200244 Site Area: Zonin 1.07 acres Residential Sin le Famil District Existin Background The property located at 5401 Williamson Road, N.E. was annexed by the City from Roanoke County effective January 1, 2017. This parcel serves as off -arking for the adjacent commercial building and development (formerly Happy' s Flea The subject property serves as approximately half the front parking area for the adjacent property and provides access to Williamson Road from the adjacent property (adjacent property has no frontage on Williamson Road). Prior to annexation from Roanoke County, the parcel was zoned C -2, High Intensity Commercial District. After annexation, the properties are considered a Residential Single - Family District (R -12) as specified in Section 36.2- 105(f)(2) of the City's zoning ordinance. This application would rezone the property from Residential Single Family District (R -12) to Commercial -Large Site District (CLS), consistent with the adjacent properties in the City. The uses in the City's CLS district are similar to those that were permitted in the County's C -2 district. Considerations The property is part of a continuous strip of commercial development along Williamson Road, N.E., and forms a contiguous use with the adjacent property (Official Tax No. 2200244). The proposed change will make the zoning of the property consistent with the zoning prior to annexation and matches the zoning of the adjacent properties in the City. Surrounding Zoning and Land Use Zonin District Land Use Mixed commercial development North C -2, High Intensity Commercial District (Roanoke South Count ) CLS, Commercial Large -Site, Vacant commercial building, mixed R -12, Residential Single commercial, off -site parking Famil Mixed commercial development, East C -2, High Intensity Commercial District (Roanoke vacant commercial building, single County), family residential CLS, Commercial Large -Site, R -7 Residential Sin le West C -2, High Intensity Mixed commercial development Commercial District (Roanoke Count ) Compliance with the Zoning Ordinance: The purpose of the CLS District is to accommodate multiple buildings and uses that are large in scale and generally characterized by multiple tenants or uses on a single zoning lot that share common parking, curb cuts, driveways, and access to and from streets. These uses and areas are heavily dependent on the motor vehicle and tend to result in large parking areas and outdoor display of merchandise. CLS District uses include large motor vehicle sales and service establishments and community and regional shopping centers. The district standards provide for landscaped buffers to minimize the impact of CLS uses on surrounding areas. While the change from R -12 to CLS zoning may appear significant, the property was zoned C -2 in the County with a similar set of permitted uses as the proposed CLS District. The development standards in the current zoning ordinance will provide adequate controls related to any development that might occur on this parcel and the adjacent property. Conformity with the Comprehensive Plan and Neighborhood Plan: Both Vision 2001 -2020 and the Williamson Road Area Plan identify the need for appropriate location of commercial development. Relevant Vision 2001 -2020 policy: ED P6. Commercial development. Roanoke will encourage commercial development in appropriate areas (i.e., key intersections and centers) of Roanoke to serve the needs of citizens and visitors. Relevant Williamson Road Area Plan Policy: Economic Development Policies and Actions Commercial zoning: The supply of commercial zoning along Williamson Road will be limited to encourage more efficient use of Roanoke's scarce land resources. In conjunction, Roanoke will encourage increased lot coverage ratios, multi -story buildings, and reduced setback requirements. Future expansion of commercial districts will be discouraged. Returning the zoning of the property to a commercial designation, similar to the previous zoning, maintains what had been existing zoning patterns and allows for future redevelopment or reuse of this property and the abutting property that housed the former Happy's Flea Market. Public Comment Summary None Planning Commission Work Session (March 10 2017): The item was discussed in the Planning Commission Work Session for compliance with City policy and ordinances. No comments resulted from the review of the proposed rezoning. Conclusions and Recommendations: The principal consideration is whether the proposed zoning amendment is consistent with Vision 2001 -2020 and the Williamson Road Area Plan. As previously noted, this property was zoned for commercial use until January 1, 2017, when it was annexed into the City. Maintaining a similar zoning designation is appropriate in conjunction with the commercial development that exists along Williamson Road, N.E., and the abutting property that the off -site parking serves.

Ru.,,, 1A11W 1r.M11 36603661 BI,, 11,11, &, To: Hot Meeting: April 17, 2017 Subject: Application by the City of Roanoke to amend the Official Zoning Map to rezone property located at 3660 Blue Hills Village Drive, N.E., and 3661 Blue Hills Village Drive, N.E., bearing Official Tax Map Nos. 7160123 and 7160122, respectively, from R -12, Residential Single Family District, to CG, Commercial - General District, for CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT the public necessity, convenience, and general welfare, and to promote good zoning practice. Recommendation The Planning Commission held a public hearing on Monday, April 10, 2017. By a vote of 6 - 0, the Commission recommended approval of the rezoning request, finding that the Original Application is consistent with the City's Comprehensive Plan, Hollins /Wildwood Area Plan, and Zoning Ordinance. The zoning of subject property, recently annexed from Roanoke County, will match that of the adjacent properties in the City and is consistent with how the property was zoned while situated in Roanoke County. Application Information The D Shaw Planning Commission Naern D Shaw Planning commission, n and 9661 Blue Hills Village Drive, N.E. 2 icial Tax Nos.: 7160123 and 7160122 iite Area 0.49 acres 0.72 acres Existin Zonin Residential Sin le Famil District (R -12) Pro osed Zonin Commercial - General District (CG) Existin Land Use: Vacant Pro osed Land Use: Vacant Neighborhood Plan: Hollins /Wildwood Area Plan Specified Future N/A - General commercial identified for adjacent property Land Use: Filing Date: Motion at Planning Commission Public Hearing: March 13. 2017 Background The properties located at 3660 and 3661 Blue Hills Village Drive, N.E., were annexed by the City from Roanoke County effective January 1, 2017. These two parcels were part of contiguous development that was located in the City of Roanoke and Roanoke County. Prior to annexation from Roanoke County, the two parcels were zoned C -2, High Intensity Commercial District, without conditions. After annexation, the properties are considered a Residential Single - Family District (R -12) as specified in Section 36.2 -1 OS(f)(2) of the City's zoning ordinance. This application would rezone the two properties from Residential Single- Family District (R -12) to Commercial - General District (CG), consistent with the adjacent properties in the City. The uses in the City's CG district are similar to those that were permitted in the County's C -2 district. The property at 3660 Blue Hills Drive, N.E., is narrow and irregularly shaped, which would make development difficult. The property located at 3661 Blue Hills Village Drive, N.E., contains a stormwater management basin that serves the Blue Hills Village development. The presence of the basin would make any further use of the property difficult without significant redevelopment. Considerations The property is part of a contiguous commercial development along Blue Hills Village Drive, N.E., that runs generally parallel to Orange Avenue, N.E. The proposed change will make the zoning of the consistent with the zoning prior to annexation and matches the zoning of the adjacent properties in the City. Surrounding Zoning and Land Use: North R-�1, Low Density Residential Two single family dwellings C.2, High Intensity Single Family Detached Dwelling, Commercial District (Roanoke Vacant, and Warehouse C -1, Low Intensity Commercial District (Roanoke West CG(c), General Commercial Retail sales, eating establishment Compliance with the zoning Ordinance: The purpose of the CG District is to permit motor vehicle dependent uses that are generally developed as single use developments on individual lots, subject to landscaping, access, and signage standards. Such development is generally characterized by individual curb cuts, access drives, and signage. It is intended that this district be applied primarily along heavily traveled arterial streets, with an emphasis on clustering such development at major intersections. While recognizing the motor vehicle traffic generated by the uses permitted in this district, it is the intent of the regulations of the district to encourage and recognize pedestrian access and public transit forms of transportation by locating parking to the side and rear of buildings and minimizing conflict through landscaping and signage standards. The uses permitted in this district generally require a high volume of traffic along the frontage of the establishment and include horizontally oriented buildings. Such permitted uses include general retail establishments, offices, service establishments, motor vehicle related sales and service, eating establishments, and entertainment uses. The CG District is also intended to accommodate travel- oriented uses such as hotels, motels, and gasoline stations. While the change from R -12 to CG zoning may appear as a significant change, the property was zoned C -2 in the County with a similar set of permitted uses as the proposed CG District. The development standards in the current zoning ordinance will provide adequate controls related to any development that might occur on the two parcels. Conformity with the Comprehensive Plan and Neighborhood Plan: Both Vision 2001 -2020 and the Hollins /Wildwood Area Plan identify the need for appropriate commercial development. Relevant Vision 2001 -2020 policies: ED P6. Commercial development. Roanoke will encourage commercial development in appropriate areas (i.e., key intersections and centers) of Roanoke to serve the needs of citizens and visitors. Relevant Hollins /Wildwood Area Plan Policies Economic Development Policies and Actions Commercial Corridors: Commercial areas should accommodate competitive businesses that have aesthetic and functional compatibility with adjoining residential areas. Orange Avenue: Maintain commercial zoning that will retain existing businesses and attract new establishments. Maximize use of Existing Commercial Districts: Avoid further expansion of commercial districts to encourage quality development and more efficient use of land in existing districts. The Hollins /Wildwood Area Plan does encourage a mix of multifamily residential and commercial development along the Orange Avenue corridor. These two parcels are small in area and would not lend themselves to development for multifamily purposes. Returning the zoning to a commercial designation, similar to the previous zoning, could allow for use to support the adjacent commercial development along Blue Hills Village Drive. Public Comment Summary None Planning Commission Work Session (March 10 2017): The item was discussed in the Planning Commission Work Session for compliance with City policy and ordinances. No comments resulted from the review of the proposed rezoning. Conclusions and Recommendations: The principal consideration is whether the proposed zoning amendment is consistent with Vision 2001 -2020 and the Hollins /Wildwood Area Plan. As previously noted, these properties were zoned for commercial use until January 1, 2017, when they were annexed into the City. Maintaining a similar zoning designation is appropriate in conjunction with the commercial development that exists along Blue Hills Village Drive, N.E.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT To: Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council Meeting: April 17, 2017 Subject: Application by the City of Roanoke to amend the Official Zoning Map to rezone property located at 5345 Williamson Road, N.E., bearing Official Tax Map No. 2200243, from R -1 2, Residential Single - Family District, to CLS, Commercial -Large Site District, for the public necessity, convenience, and general welfare, and to promote good zoning practice. Recommendation The Planning Commission held a public hearing on Monday, April 10, 2017. By a vote of 6 - 0, the Commission recommended approval of the rezoning request, f)nding that the Original Application is consistent with the City's Comprehensive Plan, Williamson Road Area Plan, and Zoning Ordinance. The zoning of subject property, recently annexed from Roanoke County, will match that of the adjacent properties in the City and is consistent with how the property was zoned while situated in Roanoke County. Application Information Re nest: Rezonin Owner: Williamson Road Plaza LLC A licant: Cit of Roanoke Authorized A ent: Ian D. Shaw, Plannin Commission A ent Cit Sta Person: Ian D. Shaw, Planning Commission Anent Site 5345 Williamson Road, N.E. Address /Location: O icial Tax Nos.. 2200244 Site Area: 0.023 acres Existin Zonin Residential Single Family District (R -12) Pro osed Zonin Commercial-Large Site (CLS) Existin Land Use: Parking, off -site Pro osed Land Use: Parking, off -site Neighborhood Plan: Williamson Road Area Plan Specified Future N/A - Large scale commercial Land Use Filing Date: Motion at Planning Commission Public Hearing: I March 13, 2017 Background The property located at 5345 Williamson Road, N.E., was annexed by the City from Roanoke County effective January 1, 2017. This parcel serves as a small portion of the parking area for an outparcel of the adjacent Williamson Road Plaza, a strip commercial development. Prior to annexation from Roanoke County, the parcel was zoned C -2, High Intensity Commercial District. After annexation, the properties are considered a Residential Single - Family District (R -12) as specified in Section 36.2- 105(f)(2) of the City's zoning ordinance. This application would rezone the property from Residential Single - Family District (R -12) to Commercial -Large Site District (CLS), consistent with the adjacent Williamson Road Plaza properties. The uses in the City's CLS district are similar to those that were permitted in the County's C -2 district. Considerations The property is part of a continuous strip of commercial development along Williamson Road, N.E., and forms a contiguous use with the adjacent property (Official Tax No. 2200228). The proposed change will make the zoning of the property consistent with the zoning prior to annexation and matches the zoning of the adjacent properties in the City. Surrounding Zoning and Land Use: North Zonin District CLS, Commercial Large -Site, Land Use Vacant commercial building, mixed R -12, Residential Single commercial, off -site parking Family (another property annexed from Roanoke Count ) South CLS, Commercial Large -Site, Mixed commercial development East CLS, Commercial Large -Site, Mixed commercial development West C -2, High Intensity Mixed commercial development Commercial District (Roanoke County), CG Commercial - General Compliance with the Zoning Ordinance: The purpose of the CLS District is to accommodate multiple buildings and uses that are large in scale and generally characterized by multiple tenants or uses on a single zoning lot that share common parking, curb cuts, driveways, and access to and from streets. These uses and areas are heavily dependent on the motor vehicle and tend to result in large parking areas and outdoor display of merchandise. CLS District uses include large motor vehicle sales and service establishments and community and regional shopping centers. The district standards provide for landscaped buffers to minimize the impact of CLS uses on surrounding areas. While the change from R -12 to CLS zoning may appear significant, the property was zoned C -2 in the County with a similar set of permitted uses as the proposed CLS District. The development standards in the current zoning ordinance will provide adequate controls related to any development that might occur on this parcel and the adjacent property. Conformity with the Comprehensive Plan and Neighborhood Plan: Both Vision 2001 -2020 and the Williamson Road Area Plan identify the need for appropriate location of commercial development. Relevant Vision 2001 -2020 policy: ED P6. Commercial development. Roanoke will encourage commercial development in appropriate areas (i.e., key intersections and centers) of Roanoke to serve the needs of citizens and visitors. Relevant Williamson Road Area Plan Policy: Economic Development Policies and Actions Commercial zoning: The supply of commercial zoning along Williamson Road will be limited to encourage more efficient use of Roanoke's scarce land resources. In conjunction, Roanoke will encourage increased lot coverage ratios, multi -story buildings, and reduced setback requirements. Future expansion of commercial districts will be discouraged. Returning the zoning of the property to a commercial designation, similar to the previous zoning, maintains what had been existing zoning patterns and allows for future redevelopment or reuse of this property and the abutting property that housed the former Happy's Flea Market. Public Comment Summary None Planning Commission Work Session (March 10 2017): The item was discussed in the Planning Commission Work Session for compliance with City policy and ordinances. No comments resulted from the review of the proposed rezoning. Conclusions and Recommendations: The principal consideration is whether the proposed zoning amendment is consistent with Vision 2001 -2020 and the Williamson Road Area Plan. As previously noted, this property was zoned for commercial use until January 1 , 2017, when it was annexed into the City. Maintaining a similar zoning designation is appropriate in conjunction with the commercial development that exists along Williamson Road, N.E., and the adjacent development with which this property is associated.

Thari ROANOKE CULTURAL END WMENT RCE BOARD April 27, 2017 OF DIRECTORS I "k Roanoke City Council 215 Church Avenue SW Room 456 ,dh Roanoke, VA 24011 Dear Mayor Lea, Vice -Mayor Price, and Members of Roanoke City Council: On behalf of the Roanoke Cultural Endowment, I have a few thoughts for your consideration as you finalize the city's 2017-2018 budget. I understand there have been some concerns with regard to the $125,000 allocated to the Roanoke Cultural Endowment within the city's proposed budget. To date, the Endowment has received over $1.3 million in commitments through private and public funds (public funding comprising $500,000 of that total). As you are aware, our goal is to raise $20 million within 10 years 2025 before the Endowment is able to begin granting operational funds to arts and culture organizations in the city. Our Board is actively fundraising and focused on raising major gifts from the private sector. The Endowment was created through the foresight of the City of Roanoke as an important long -term measure to ensure the city has a stable source of funding for its many celebrated arts and cultural organizations. As national and state funding sources for the arts continue to be threatened and eliminated, it is imperative City Council remain steadfast in its support of our private - public partnership. I ask that you please reaffirm your recognition of the importance of arts and cultural organizations in Roanoke to the fabric and quality of life of our city by continuing to fund the Endowment. It is our hope that Council increases the Endowment's funding from the city as other arts and culture commitments roll off the budget in future years. 1 look forward to continuing our annual one - on-one meetings with each of you over the course of the spring and summer to answer any questions you might have. Thank you for your service to our city Sincerely, David Wine Chairman, Roanoke Cultural Endowment 21 IGrk Avenue SW, Roanoke, VA 74011 1 PO.

Our plans include new exhibits highlighting animals native to the Blue Ridge Mountains, an enhanced, interactive, natural children's playground and updates to our 19th century log cabin. We are seeking your funding support. We are seeking to raise $500,000 to help us with both our winter operational costs and to fund these new exhibits. Like most non - profit organizations, Mill Mountain Zoo is funded primarily by private donors and your support now is critical to the Zoo as we continue for another 65 years and beyond in Virginia's Blue Ridge. Mill Mountain Zoo currently features 77 species of animals including the vulnerable and endangered red panda, snow leopard, yellow- spotted sideneck turtle, fishing cat, red wolf, and Asian small - clawed otter. We are excited to bring new exhibits and updates to Mill Mountain Zoo in 20171 With your financial support, our 65th anniversary plans will strengthen our mission of wildlife management, education, and conservation for generations to come. The following pages outline our 2017 planned updates. We look forward to any questions you might have about our plans.

In 1952 we were founded by 185 spirited citizens and organizations (e.g., Appalachian Power Company, Boxely, Cater Machinery, Norfolk and Western Railroad, Oak Hall, etc.) from our community. From our inception through 1975, we were operated by Roanoke City. In 1976, the city turned its operations over to the Roanoke Jaycees. The Jaycees operated the zoo until 1988 when its operation was handed over to its current owner and operator, the non - profit Blue Ridge Zoological Society (BRZS). What is Mill Mountain Zoo's mission? Mill Mountain Zoo is dedicated to promoting an appreciation and understanding of animal habitat preservation through the use of quality exhibits and educational programs, and to work in cooperation with other animal conservation programs. How many endangered or threatened species does Mill Mountain Zoo have in its collection? Mill Mountain Zoo has 9 endangered or threatened animals including: Red Panda Pallas Cat Snow Leopard Asian Small- Clawed Otter Red Wolf • Eurasian Black Vulture • Prehensile - Tailed Skink • Tuhed Deer • Fishing Cat How many annual visitors does Mill Mountain Zoo serve? Approximately 45,000- 50,000 Does Mill Mountain Zoo provide services to students? Yes, Mill Mountain Zoo serves approximately 6,000 students from 12 different school districts. How much funding does Mill Mountain Zoo receive each year from local government? At this time, Mill Mountain Zoo's annual budget of approximately $900,000 is funded primarily by admissions, concessions, educational programs, events (54%), and private donations (40%). Approximately six percent comes from local governments. �� Mill Mountain Zoo • PO Box 8159 • Roanoke, VA 24014 • www.mmzoo.org (FAO's continued) Why is Mill Mountain Zoo seeking to add animals native to the Blue Ridge Mountains to its collection? The Blue Ridge mountains are a hotspot of biodiversity, meaning we have a proportionally large number of endemic flora and fauna and significant threats to that diversity. Mill Mountain Zoo wants to educate our stakeholders about this diversity and showcase a select grouping of the majestic animals that live in our mountains; including cougars, bald eagles, black bears and bobcats to mention a few. While numerous people live in our metropolitan area, many of these individuals have never seen these animals or only do so when they come into conflict with them striking their car or raiding their bird - feeders. Making the proposed changes to our exhibits will allow us to educate our visitors about the importance and preservation of these animals and the habitats in which they live. Our plan also fits with the strategic plan of surrounding local governments to drive economic development by highlighting the unique outdoor environment of Virginia's Blue Ridge. Why are new exhibits so critical to Mill Mountain Zoo? We are seeking to build excitement about our zoo and increase our attendance. At the height of our admissions when "Ruby the Tiger" was part of our collection and we had a more diverse offering of programs due to state funding, we had approximately 100,000 visitors a year. Today, we greet approximately 45,000 and 50,000 visitors per year We are confident we can reach 100,000 annual visitors over the next few years. The path to get there is a continuous stream of new exhibits that both educate and excite our visitors. By increasing the number of visitors by 50,000 each year, we estimate we will generate approximately $450,000 in added revenue, a portion of which is returned to the City of Roanoke in admissions tax. This increase would allow us to update our aging infrastructure, build new exhibits, and add critical staff Positions we desperately need but currently cannot afford. How can you help? Currently, 94% of Mill Mountain Zoo's budget is derived through a combination of zoo activities (admissions, concessions, education programs and events) and donations. Your financial support now will strengthen our mission of wildlife management, education, and conservation for generations to come. Please consider supporting us in this quest to redesign our beloved zoo!

While many of our visitors know black bears exist in Virginia's Blue Ridge, the vast majority have never seen one or only when coming into conflict with one. A black bear is a direct tie into our focus on native animals as part of our collection. Updates will include renovating our old antelope exhibit which will include terracing, rock features, climbing structures, upgraded fencing, and wood propping. The animal night house will also be renovated with a rock faQade.

Our Zoo and its visitors will benefit from a natural play area for children. Inclusive of this would be play structures that allow kids to mimic animal behaviors, a waterfall with a sleucing box to allow children to pan for gems to pair with our log cabin exhibit, and a sand pit where children could excavate replicas of dinosaur fossils to link to our living reptiles exhibits.

Would you all follow along? I live on a fixed income as well as many others and cannot afford anther fee, my taxes went up the last time 78 dollars and I am not sure how much the storm water fee went up. What is next a fee for the Fire Dept.? My insurance gets billed if I call the Rescue Squad. This tax and Fee spending council must live within the budget like I do and all the other people do. Thanks foryour time. Sent from Mail for Windows 10 file: / / /C:[Users /CKCTI /AppData/Local /Temp /notesElEF34 /— webl009.htm 4/27/2017 I just wanted to share my displeasure with each of you that you are considering placing more burdens on the very citizens that have elected you to serve this city. I have been a resident of the City of Roanoke for over 20 years. I've continue to watch you all make one poor decision after another of how to spend our tax revenues. I don't mind paying my fair share when I see money going towards schools, public works, infrastructure and public safety. But the spending habits of Mr. Morrill have now brought us to the point where I don't think it's fair to continue to ask me to recoup the losses. I don't think that $7 or $8 per month per citizen can recover the losses created by lost sales tax revenue. Perhaps you should rethink investing millions of dollars to Deschutes Brewery - I've seen $7 million dollar figure being floated around. I know that you basically gave them $200,000 in land to develop on and all sorts of other incentives. When will they be here ?? 2019 ?1 I also don't think it was wise to buy the land on Wood Haven Rd in the scheme with the County and Salem to plop an industrial park in an area that is not able to sustain infrastructure required to get trucks or increased traffic (if it ever comes to fruition), etc in and out. I continue to be amazed to see you spend money hand over fist to entice business to downtown. The money that was given to Hampton Inn may be recovered in sales and lodging taxes eventually meanwhile the citizen continues to pay more and more for storm water, garbage, etc. These businesses tend to get a pass for storm water fees and likely will be given a pardon on their garbage tax from the information that was published. Seems like businesses and apartments would produce more trash than a single family home with three adults living in it. Please don't get me started about $300,000 investment made to renovate the lobby of the municipal building and redo the steps that at most have 5 parking spaces nearby and no handicap accessibility on that side. You all need to think a bit more before handing out more of my money. My wages surely aren't rising, but my tax burden seems to increase. Good luck tonight. I hope the turnout is great and vocal. Maybe you can stop and get a Deschutes on the way home - Does Trinkle serve it at FITA?
