FROM: Steven R. Staples, Superintendent of Public Instruction
SUBJECT: Virginia Board of Education Resolution Regarding Eligibility Criteria for
Expedited Retakes on Spring 2015 Grades 3 through 8 Non - Writing Standards of
Learning Tests
This memorandum provides details regarding Virginia General Assembly legislation and a Virginia Board of
Education (Board of Education) resolution that address the eligibility criteria for an expedited retake by students
participating in the grades three through eight Standards of Learning (SOL) tests.
During the 2015 General Assembly Session, Governor McAuliffe proposed legislation to expand opportunities
for students taking grades three through eight SOL tests. House Bill 1490, introduced by Delegate Habeeb, and
Senate Bill 874, introduced by Senator Cosgrove, were approved by the 2015 General Assembly and signed by
Governor McAuliffe. They go into effect July 1, 2015, and state the following: "That the Board of Education
shall promulgate regulations to provide the same criteria for eligibility for an expedited retake of any Standards
of Learning test, with the exception of the writing Standards of Leming tests, to each student regardless of
grade level or course."
The Board of Education adopted a new resolution, Resolution Norther 2015-01, at its Thursday, March 26,
2015, business meeting (see Agenda Item I). This resolution, entitled Establishing Criteria for Students Eligible
for "Expedited" Retakes of Standards of Learning Tests in Grades 3 through 8, indicates the Board of
Education's intent that during the 2014 -2015 school year, local school divisions may offer expedited retakes of
the SOL reading, mathematics, science, and history tests to students in grades three through eight who meet the
following criteria:
The student must:
1) Have passed the course associated with the test; and
2) One of the following:
• Failed the test by a narrow margin; or
• Failed the test by any margin and have extenuating circumstances that would warrant retesting; or
• Did not sit for the regularly scheduled test for legitimate reasons.
The "narrow margin" criteria shall be defined as a scaled score of 375 -399. The division superintendent will be
responsible for making the determination of what constitutes "extenuating circumstances" and `legitimate
reasons" for the purposes of establishing eligibility for an expedited retest of a Standards of Learning test.
In addition, the following conditions shall apply:

• Prior to any additional testing, school divisions shall obtain and thereafter maintain documentation of

PROTOCOLS
The School Board permits the use of school facilities for community purposes, in
accordance with appropriate state and federal laws, provided that such use does not
interfere with the educational program.
The full control of all facilities remains with the School Board. The Board authorizes
the Superintendent, or designee, and the Building Principal to grant permission for
use by outside groups. Decisions regarding requests to use school facilities are based
on the following order of priority:
• School- related organization; i.e., PTA, Boosters
• City of Roanoke
• Non - profit Roanoke -based organizations
• Non - profit service groups outside Roanoke
• Private interest groups
Use of any School property to engage in any partisan political activity supporting or
opposing a candidate for public office or a political party is prohibited.
The Application for Use of School Property and Facilities must be properly completed
and signed by a responsible representative of the requesting group and be accompanied
by a certificate of liability insurance, if required. The Application must be filed at least
21 days before the scheduled event.
Fees
The facilities may be used by governmental, community, civic, service, and professional
groups and organizations from within the District by paying fees in accordance with the
building rental rates.
In addition to the building rental rates, at least one school district employee must be
present and responsible when school buildings are being used. Facility users requiring
the assistance of additional school personnel (such as custodian, cafeteria staff,
security, stage crew, etc.) beyond the employee's normal work schedule will be billed
for the employee's salary and benefits. (See rates on page 3.)

eCITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT

2430601 (Property). Restoration Housing (Buyer), a Virginia non -stock
corporation, and its subsidiaries or affiliates that may be created to own and /or
operate the Property, has submitted a proposal to purchase the Property for One
Dollar ($1.00); and during the due diligence period, make an initial non-
refundable investment to stabilize the Property's roof structure.
The attached proposed Contract for Purchase and Sale of Real Property (Contract)
contains the terms and conditions under which the City will convey the Property to
buyer and the performance conditions which the buyer must satisfy.
Considerations:
In consideration of the purchase price of One Dollar ($1.00), Buyer agrees to
invest approximately $868,000 in the Property subject to the successful listing of
the Property on the State and National Historic Registers, the securing of historic
tax credits in support of the renovation of the Property, release of the Property as
Villa Heights Park, and to renovate the Property for use in support of non - profit
community youth services, activities and related functions. The Buyer investment
is inclusive of insurance proceeds in the amount of $234,000 to be received from
the City at the conclusion of the renovation to aid in the rehabilitation of the
Property, subject to certain performance -based obligations which the Buyer will be
bound to perform, both prior to and subsequent to, the closing of the real estate
transaction as summarized below:
Prior to Closing, Buyer shall obtain final approval to use state historic tax
rehabilitation credits for the project from the Virginia Department of
Historic Resources.
Within twelve (12) months of Closing the Buyer will commence construction
activities.
Within eighteen (18) months of commencing construction activity Buyer
must complete construction and obtain a final certificate of occupancy.
For a period of 10 years from receipt of the certificate of occupancy, the
Buyer, upon either sale, subdivision or other conveyance of the Property,
would be required to pay to the City a prorated portion of the insurance
proceeds received upon completion of the construction at a declining
annual rate of ten percent (10 %) per year.
It is anticipated that this performance -based conveyance of public property will
ensure the timely renovation and restoration of this historic property while
safeguarding the public investment of the insurance proceeds. The proposed
contract is attached to this report for City Council's review and consideration.
On June 6, 2017, the proposed Buyer and City staff members met with
representatives of the Melrose -Rugby and Fairland Neighborhood organizations.
A representative from the former Villa Heights Neighborhood group was also
present. All attendees were supportive of the Buyer's plans and usage of the
facility.
Recommended Action:
Absent comments at the public hearing to the contrary, approve the attached
ordinance authorizing the Acting City Manager to execute a contract substantially
similar to the one attached to this Report, and to execute such other documents
and to take such further actions as may be necessary to implement, administer,
and enforce such contract. All documents are subject to the approval as to form

INTERDEPARTMENTAL COMMUNICATION
DATE: August 4, 2017
TO Sherman P. Lea, Sr., Mayor
Anita J. Price, Vice -Mayor
William D. Bestpitch, Council Member
Michelle L. Dykstra, Council Member
Raphael E. Ferris, Council Member
John A. Garland, Council Member
Dr. David Trickle, Council Member
FROM Daniel J. Callaghan, City Attorney
SUBJECT: Citizen's Request to Adopt a Resolution in Opposition to the Construction and Operation
of the Mountain Valley Pipeline Project (v.2)
Recently, Ed Reynolds, a resident of Roanoke, contacted Mayor Lea to ask that City Council
consider the adoption of a resolution opposing the development, construction, and operation of the
Mountain Valley natural gas pipeline in Virginia. In December 2016, Dr. Diana Christopulos and Mr.
Rupert Cutler also made presentations to Council regarding this issue. At that time, Council deferred any
action on the matter as the proposed route of this project would not enter the City.
Subsequent to the presentation in December 2016, 1 contacted Ruth Ellen Kunhel, Roanoke
County Attorney, with regard to this project. Roanoke County has intervened in the proceedings before
the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) and has taken a very active role in opposition to the
project, as originally presented, based on the impacts to natural and cultural resources within the County
and potential adverse impacts on economic development within the region. Roanoke County continues
to participate in the FERC proceedings and continues to raise its objections to the project as currently
proposed. As proposed, the project route tons through six counties in Virginia; Giles, Montgomery,
Craig, Roanoke, Franklin, and Pittsylvania. On June 23, 2017, FERC issued its final environmental
impact statement. In that statement, FERC found that the project would have limited adverse impact to
the environment with the exception of impacts on forests.
Mr. Reynolds has articulated several concerns about this project, including the adverse impact on
the natural environment on the Roanoke Valley, contamination of the water supply that may result from
more than 100 crossings of rivers and streams within the Roanoke River Basin, exacerbation of climate
•
Page 2
change problems from the expanded use of fossil fuels, the limited economic benefits to the region
based on the low necessity of this project for communities in Virginia. Several other environmental
groups oppose the project on similar grounds. Delegate Sam Rasoul recently held a press conference to
state his concerns that the project will present significant threats to the water supply, water quality, and
watershed integrity within our region based on the significant number of crossings throughout the
Roanoke River Basin. Delegate Rascal also emphasized that any adverse impacts on water supply or
water quality could jeopardize economic development within our region as outdoor quality of life is
becoming a significant component of our region's brand as Virginia's Blue Ridge.
The project also has its supporters, including the Regional Chamber of Commerce, Roanoke Gas
Company, and Governor Terry McAuliffe. Supporters maintain that the availability of natural gas
supplies is an essential element of a robust economy and that the construction and operation of natural
gas pipelines can be accomplished in a safe manner.
FERC must now consider whether to issue a permit to the applicant to allow construction and
operation of the pipeline. A decision by FERC is anticipated by Fall 2017.
In discussions with Christopher Blakeman, the City's Environmental Administrator, the principal
concern for the City is protection of the regional water quality in that the City of Roanoke ties
downstream of the potentially deleterious pipeline crossings, and is under a regulatory mandate to
improve water quality within the Upper Roanoke River basin, and is spending considerable energy and
funds to do so. Further, Mr. Blakeman pointed to our growing dependence on high quality water for
economic development, local business viability and the legitimacy of our region's outdoor branding, as
well as drinking water supply intakes for the City of Salem and the Western Virginia Water Authority,
that are located on the Roanoke River. Lastly, the City is preparing comments to DEQ regarding the
impact of this project on the water quality of the Roanoke River as it passes through the City. These
comments seek more data on which the City can make specific recommendations.
The number of river and stream crossings presents a significant issue for FERC in determining
whether the pipeline can be constructed and operated without significant adverse impacts to the region's
over -all watershed integrity. Mountain Valley Pipeline, LLC, the proponent of the project, submitted
Supplemental Materials with FERC on July 27, 2017, to address concerns that some opponents have
raised regarding the process that construction will follow if the permit is issued; however, a main
contention of opponents is that the 100+ crossings may still be permitted in mass, rather than with
focused mitigation measures applied to individual crossings based on the risk and sensitivity specifics of
each such location. Initially the Virginia Dept. of Environmental Quality (permitting authority in
Virginia) (DEQ) had committed to a single General Permit for the project's stream crossings, but then
issued a public statement saying that each crossing would be independently evaluated and permitted.
More recently the DEQ has stated its intent to return to their original General Permit policy with regard
to the stream crossings.
While this issue merits consideration, regionally relevant factors are being presented here in a
comprehensive manner. I trust that this information is helpful to you in considering whether to adopt a
resolution expressing any concerns that City Council may have regarding this project. Please advise me
how you wish to proceed.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
To: Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council
Meeting: August 7, 2017
Subject: Appropriation of Funding for Children's Services Act
Background:
The Children's Services Act (CSA), established in 1993, provides services to at-
risk youth and their families through a collaborative system of state and local
agencies, parents, and private sector providers. These services include foster
care, certain special education services, and community based prevention
services.
Considerations:
CSA expenditure are expected to total $12,250,000 for FY 2017. Based on this
projection, expenditures will exceed the current CSA FY 2017 appropriation of
$11,400,770 by $849,230. Revenues are also anticipated to be greater based
on the higher projected level of expenditures. Revenues from the state are
anticipated to grow to $8,156,460 from the adopted amount of $7,751,000.
This is an increase of $405,460. The resulting local match required is
$443,770.
CSA expenditures have increased for the past two years primarily due to an
increase in the numbers of children placed in Therapeutic Foster Care and an
increase in the numbers of children being served by private day schools for
special education purposes.
Recommended Action:
Adopt the accompanying budget ordinance to increase the revenue estimate in
the amount of $405,460 from the state as well as $230,400 from Roanoke City
Public Schools and to appropriate funding in the amount of $635,860 into
expenditure accounts for CSA programs as noted in the attached budget
ordinance. Local match funding in the amount of $213,370 will be transferred
from the City Manager Contingency Account.

E) CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
To: Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council
Meeting: August 7, 2017
Subject: 2018 Virginia Sexual and Domestic Violence Victim Fund Grant
Background:
The Department of Criminal Justice Services of the Commonwealth of Virginia
has awarded the Roanoke Police Department $31,588 in grant funding as part
of the Virginia Sexual and Domestic Violence Victim Fund. There is no local
match requirement. The Roanoke Police Department will use the award to
partially fund its existing Sexual Violence Specialist position.
The Sexual Violence Specialist was previously funded as a full -time employee
position through a combination of general funds and grant funds in the
absence of alternative grant funding sources.
The 2018 Virginia Domestic Violence Victim Fund grant is not sufficient to fully
cover the salary and benefits of a full time position. To maintain the position as
a full time employee at current salary and benefit levels, the City of Roanoke
will be required to provide an additional $24,007 in funding to the 2018
Virginia Domestic Violence Victim Fund grant.
The Sexual Violence Specialist is an essential employee who provides services to
the victims of sexual assault. The Sexual Violence Specialist investigates sexual
violence offenses, ensures that victims receive support services throughout
their case, and prepares cases for prosecution. Beyond the services that the
employee provides in a grant funded capacity, the individual also serves as the
Hispanic Outreach Coordinator for the Roanoke Police Department. The
Hispanic Outreach Coordinator coordinates community events, assists in
criminal investigations, and works to improve community relations.
Recommended Action:
Accept the 2018 Virginia Domestic Violence Victim Fund grant described above
and authorize the Acting City Manager to execute the grant agreement and any
related documents; all such documents to be approved as to form by the City
Attorney.
Adopt the accompanying budget ordinance to establish a revenue estimate in
the Grant fund for State grant funds of $31 ,588, transfer funding in the amount
of $24,007 from the Transfer to Grant Fund account (01 -250- 9310 -9535) to
provide local funding, and appropriate total funding of $55,595 for salary and
benefits into accounts to be established by the Director of Finance in the Grant
Fund.

oF CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
To:
Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council
Meeting:
August 7, 2017
Subject:
Appropriation of Electronic Summons Funds
Background:
The 2014 session of the General Assembly enacted section 17.1-279.1, Code of
Virginia (1950), as amended, to authorize localities to collect an assessment on
all traffic and criminal offenses to support the implementation and maintenance
costs of electronic summons systems. The Council of the City of Roanoke
adopted a $5.00 electronic summons assessment on traffic and criminal
offenses that became effective on September 1, 2014.
The assessment has been collected by the Clerk of the Court in which the action
was filed, remitted to the Treasurer of the City of Roanoke and held by the
Treasurer subject to appropriation by Council. As of July 10, 2017, the sum of
approximately $67,516 has been collected since the last funding appropriation
in June of 2016. The appropriation of these additional funds will be used solely
to purchase software, hardware, and associated equipment for the
implementation and maintenance of the electronic summons system.
Electronic summons systems have the potential of improving efficiency by
significantly reducing the time that officers remain on traffic stops, reducing
the time that police support technicians spend entering data into the police
records management system, and reducing the time the Clerk of the Court staff
spend entering data from summons into the court information system.
Additionally, electronic summons systems can reduce errors and provide an
environmentally friendly alternative to paper creation and retention.
The Roanoke Police Department is requesting the appropriation of $67,000 to
be used to implement an electronic summons system.
Recommended Action:
Adopt the accompanying budget ordinance to appropriate funding in the
amount of $60,000 for Other Equipment and $7,000 in project supplies from
the Electronic Summons System Court Fees revenue account (35-640-3415-
341 5) and Electronic Summons System interest account (35- 640 - 3415 -3416)
into a corresponding account in the Grant Fund.

Meeting: August 7, 2017
Subject: Office of Emergency Medical Services (EMS) Reimbursement
Funds
Background:
Roanoke Fire -EMS provides training for personnel that are currently certified as
EMT - Intermediates that want to progress to become a Paramedic. The Virginia
Office of EMS provides reimbursement funding to the department to offset the
cost of the certification. The Roanoke Fire -EMS Department runs over 23,000
EMS calls each year. It is imperative for our community to have trained
paramedics and advanced life support (ALS) providers to run these calls to
ensure the best pre - hospital care is given to our citizens, residents and visitors.
Considerations:
City Council action is needed to formally accept $10,200 from the Office of
EMS. These funds will offset costs incurred by the Roanoke Fire -EMS
Department for the EMT - Intermediate to Paramedic Program.
Recommended Action:
Adopt the accompanying budget ordinance to establish a revenue estimate in
the Grant Fund in the amount of $10,200 and appropriate funding in the same
amount to an expenditure account to be established by the Director of Finance.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
To: Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council
Meeting: August 7, 2017
Subject: Acceptance of FYI Virginia Department of Transportation
(VDOT) Revenue Sharing Program Award, Authorization to
Execute VDOT Documents, and Appropriation of Funds
Background:
On November 7, 2016, City Council authorized the City Manager to submit an
application to VDOT for FY18 Transportation Revenue Sharing Program funds in
the total amount of $10,000,000, which required a City match of $10,000,000.
Funds were requested for the following projects:
1 . 10" Street Improvements (New Construction) - $720,000.
2. Citywide Storm Drain Improvements - $2,930,000.
3. Tinker Creek Greenway Improvements from Orange Avenue to Mason Mill
Road - $2,100,000.
4. Citywide Streetscape Improvements - $500,000.
5. Roanoke River Greenway Bridge the Gap - $1,500,000.
6. Citywide Curb, Gutter, and Sidewalk (New Construction) - $1,500,000.
7. Colonial Avenue Improvements - $750,000.
Considerations:
City staff has been notified that VDOT has awarded the City a total of
$1,470,000 from the FYI Transportation Revenue Sharing Program. Per the
City's Programmatic Project Administration Agreement with VDOT for Revenue
Sharing Projects, dated September 9, 2013 and the Extension Addendum for
Revenue Sharing Projects dated May 31, 2016 (which is valid until June 30,
2019), the City is required to match the amount of $1,470,000.
VDOT has awarded Revenue Sharing funds for only two (2) of the seven (7)
projects identified above and as set forth below.
10'h Street Road Improvements
- $720,000.
City
match funding in the
amount of $20,000 is available
in the project
account from the 2017
appropriation of bond funds and
$700,000
being
provided from the FY
•� 2018 capital project funds for Street Improvements through the planned
issuance of bonds. Because the 10" Street project is being administered
by VDOT, the FY18 Revenue Sharing funds do not need to be
appropriated into a city account. VDOT will bill the city for the matching
funds only.
2. Colonial Avenue Improvements - $750.000. City match funding in the
amount of $750,000 is available in the project account from the 2017
appropriation of bond funds.
This Council Report is requesting acceptance, authorization, and appropriation
of Revenue Sharing funds in the amount of $1,470,000 for the projects
identified above.
Recommended Action
Accept VDOT's award of FYI Revenue Sharing Program funds in the amount of
$1,470,000 for the two projects identified above, with the City providing local
matching funds in the amount of $1,470,000.
Authorize the Acting City Manager to execute the VDOT Appendix A documents
similar to the ones attached to this report dated August 7, 2017. Such
documents shall be in a form approved by the City Attorney.
Authorize the Acting City Manager to take such further actions and execute
such further documents, approved as to form by the City Attorney, as may be
necessary to obtain, accept, implement, administer, and use such funds in the
amount of $1,470,000 in Revenue Sharing Program Funds.
Adopt the accompanying Budget Ordinance to increase the revenue estimate for
the $750,000 in FYI Revenue Sharing funds and appropriate funding in the
same amount to expenditure account 08 -530 -9458, Colonial Avenue

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
To: Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council
Meeting: August 7, 2017
Subject: Bosworth Drive Improvement Project - Acquisition of Real
Property Rights
Background:
The area of Bosworth Drive between 3839 Bosworth Drive and Darwin Road
lacks an adequate stormwater conveyance network and properties are
experiencing significant damage from stormwater runoff and soil erosion. As a
result of evaluating the options to address the issues for this neighborhood, it
was determined that a cost effective and suitable solution would include
construction of curb and gutter combined with drainage improvements.
This project is funded by the City's annual curb and gutter capital program.
The City will need to acquire real property rights in order to construct, operate,
and maintain the proposed right of way improvements.
Considerations:
City Council action is necessary to authorize the acquisition of real property
rights needed for the Bosworth Drive Improvement Project. The real property
rights needed are outlined below, but are subject to minor variation of location
and extent pending final engineering design details. Funding for acquisition of
the real property rights is available in the project account: 08 -530 -9495 -
Citywide Curb, Gutter, and Sidewalk.

City Clci k.
Meeting: August 7, 2017
Subject: City of Roanoke Pension Plan Technical Correction defining service related to
Firefighters and Deputized Police Officers
Background
The City of Roanoke Pension Plan (Plan) is a multi - employer Plan. The Plan covers substantially
all full -time regular employees of the City of Roanoke, the Roanoke Regional Airport
Commission, and the Roanoke Valley Detention Commission, certain employees of the Roanoke
Valley Resource Authority, certain employees of the Western Virginia Water Authority, and
certain non - professional City School Board employees. Employees of the City Sheriff's
Department are not covered by the Plan.
Firefighters and deputized police officers meet the definition for a Normal Service retirement
by meeting specific age and service criteria. Section 22.3 -42. - ESRS definitions of the Code of
the City provide this criterion. As currently drafted, Section 22.3 -42 could create a
circumstance where certain firefighters and deputized police officers would be required to
work for a period later than other members of the plan.
Recommendation
Adopt an ordinance to (i) amend Section 22.3 -42 (a), Code of the City of Roanoke (1979), as
amended, to provide a technical correction to clarify members of this group shall in no event
be required to work for a period later than other members of the plan; and (ii) amend Section
22.3 -42 (b) to correct a typographical error in this section.
