[ am writing to request that the City of Roanoke wort: to improve its score on the Municipal
1?quality lnde.X (Nil" I) measured by the I lurnan Rights Campaign.
The Municipal ], "quality Index (NIPI) is a nationwide scorecard that e�atnines how inclusive
municipal laws, policies, and setvices are of I,GI3T) people who lire and wort: there. Cities are
rated based on non - discrimination laws, the municipality as an employer, municipal services, law
enforcement and the city leadership's public position on equality.
In 2018, the City of Roanoke received a 12 out of tOO on the MII.I, the lowest score of a
measured municipality in the Commonwealth of Virginia. I do not believe this low score reflects the
reality of Roanoke as I know it, but it may deter to those who are considering opening a business or
making this place their home.
Mayor Lea and .Members of City Council, I hope that you will consider reviewing the rubric
for the MEI and take action to improve our score so that Roanoke City can further demonstrate its
commitment to equality and inclusion.

In accordance with the requirements of the Roanoke Regional Airport Commission
Contract dated January 28, 1987, as amended, the Roanoke Regional Airport Commission is
hereby submitting its Fiscal Year 2019 -2020 Operating Budget (Attachment I) for approval. This

providing a separate listing of Capital Expenditures which are expected to exceed $100,000 in
cost and are intended to benefit five or more future accounting periods (Attachment II).
You will note that no deficit is anticipated in either the Operating Budget or for the listed
Capital Expenditures; therefore, no additional appropriations are being requested or anticipated

Capital Expenditure List by resolution of each of the participating political subdivisions would
be appreciated.
I would be pleased to respond to any questions or comments that you may have with

VDHR advised Buyer that final approval of the preservation easement would
likely not occur until Spring 2019.

substance acceptable to City and Buyer.
In March, Buyer hosted VDHR staff on site to allow VDHR staff to catalogue and
record items of historical significance to be included in the preservation
easement. Since that time, VDHR has advised Buyer that final approval of the
easement would not occur within sufficient time to allow Buyer to meet its
obligations specified in Amendment No. 1. Buyer has requested a second
extension of the Due Diligence Period, as defined in Amendment 1, and the
Closing Date, as defined in Amendment 1, to allow VDHR sufficient time to
finalize the terms and conditions of the preservation easement, in form and
substance acceptable to Seller and Buyer.

Amendment No. 2 of the Contract between Old School Partners II, LLC and the
City of Roanoke, substantially similar to the Amendment No. 2 attached to this
Report, with an extended due diligence period to August 30, 2019, and to

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
To: Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council
Meeting: April 15, 2019
Subject: Request to Modify Ordinance No. 40940 - 082117 adopted August 21,
2017 to Rescind Authorization to Acquire Certain Real Property
Interests by Eminent Domain Related to the Roanoke River
Greenway "Bridge the Gap" Project
Background:
The Roanoke River Greenway ( "Greenway ") is an approximately thirty (30) mile mixed use,
public pedestrian and recreational trail that extends throughout Roanoke City and other localities
that comprise the Roanoke Valley region. The main portion of the Greenway was completed in
2005, and the City and other localities within the Roanoke Valley region have added portions. In
2015, the City commenced development of the "Bridge the Gap" Project ( "Project ") to complete
and close an approximately 1.8 mile gap that exists in a portion of the Greenway within the City
between Bridge Street and Aerial Way Drive.
The City has acquired sufficient property rights to complete the Project except for a portion of
the Project that is proposed across two parcels of property owned by Walker Machine and
Foundry Corporation ( "Walker Foundry "), both situated at 0 Railroad Avenue, S.W., Roanoke,
Virginia, and bearing Official Tax Map Nos 1410204 and 1410205, respectively (the "Parcels ").
Pursuant to Ordinance No. 40940-082117 adopted August 21, 2017, City Council authorized the
City to institute eminent domain proceedings to acquire property rights in the Parcels, either in
fee simple or in the form of permanent easements, in order to complete the Project in the event
that negotiations with Walker Foundry failed. Pursuant to Ordinance No. 40940-082117 adopted
August 21, 2017, City Council also authorized the City to institute eminent domain proceedings
with respect to another parcel of property owned by Walker Foundry, situated at 0 Railroad
Avenue, S.W., Roanoke, Virginia, bearing Official Tax Map No. 1510301 ( "Crossing Parcel "),
in the event that negotiations with Walker Foundry failed.
Following adoption of Ordinance No. 40940 - 082117, City Administration commenced
negotiations with respect to the Crossing Parcel. The City made an offer to Walker Foundry for
the purchase of the full fee title interest in the Crossing Parcel. Walker Foundry accepted the
offer and sold the Crossing Parcel to the City. City Administration also engaged in negotiations
with Walker Foundry with respect to acquisition of property interests in the Parcels. The City
refrained from initiating eminent domain proceedings with respect to the Parcels.
The City and Walker Foundry have been unable to reach an agreement under which the City
would acquire property interests in the Parcels. City administration does not believe that it is
prudent to initiate eminent domain proceedings with respect to the Parcels at this time.
1
Considerations:
The City and Walker Foundry have been unable to negotiate terms of an agreement under which
the City will acquire sufficient property rights in the Parcels to allow completion of the Project.
City administration does not wish to initiate eminent domain proceedings with respect to the
Parcels at this time and recommends that City Council rescind its authorization to initiate
eminent domain proceedings with respect to the Parcels. City administration will remain open
and accessible to further negotiations with Walker Foundry.
Recommended Action:
City Council adopts the ordinance attached to this Report to amend Ordinance No. 40940-
082117 adopted August 21, 2017, to (i) rescind City Council's authorization granted to City
Administration to initiate eminent domain proceedings with respect to the Parcels only; (ii)
reaffirm City Council's authorization granted to City Administration to acquire the necessary
property interests in the Parcels at fair market value, using bona fide and good faith negotiations
with Walker Foundry; and (iii) affirm that this ordinance does not affect the City's acquisition of
the Crossing Parcel, �cY6y Ordinance No. 40940-082117 adopted August 21, 2017.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
To: Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council
Meeting: April 15, 2019
Subject: Request to Amend Ordinance No. 40143 - 010515, adopted January
5, 2015, to Prohibit a Portion of Official Tax Map No. 1420202 (the
"Beltline ") from Being Used for the Roanoke River Greenway
"Bridge the Gap" Project or Other Recreational Purposes.
Background:
The Roanoke River Greenway ( "Greenway ") is an approximately thirty (30) mile mixed use,
public pedestrian and recreational trail that extends throughout Roanoke City and other localities
that comprise the Roanoke Valley region. The main portion of the Greenway was completed in
2005, and the City and other localities within the Roanoke Valley region have added portions.
On January 5, 2015, City Council adopted Ordinance No. 40143 - 010515, which authorized the
City to acquire various property interests needed by the City for the "Bridge the Gap" Project
( "Project') in order to complete and close an approximately 1.8 mile gap in a portion of the
Greenway within the City between Bridge Street and Aerial Way Drive.
Pursuant to Ordinance No. 40143- 010515, the City acquired certain real property owned by
Norfolk Southern Railway Company, formerly bearing Official Tax Map No. 9999999 (when
owned by Norfolk Southern Railway Company ( "Norfolk Southern")), now bearing Official Tax
Map Nos. 1420202 and 1420326, located adjacent to Bridge Street, and commonly known as the
Beltline ( "Beltline "). The City acquired the Beltline to assist in negotiating the purchase of two
parcels of real property owned by Walker Machine and Foundry Corporation ( "Walker
Foundry "), both parcels being situated at 0 Railroad Avenue, S.W., Roanoke, Virginia, and
bearing Official Tax Map Nos. 1410204 and 1410205, respectively (the "Parcels "), or permanent
easements across the Parcels. City Council authorized the City to acquire the Parcels, or
permanent easements across such Parcels, pursuant to Ordinance No. 40940 - 082117, adopted
August 21, 2017, by eminent domain in the event voluntary negotiations with Walker Foundry
were unsuccessful.
The Beltline is a narrow strip of land consisting of approximately 107,855 square feet that spans
a portion of Roanoke Ave., S.W., and intersects Bridge Street, S.W., and borders several
properties, including and not limited to the Parcels, and another parcel owned by Walker
Foundry bearing Official Tax Map No. 1420201. Walker Foundry had rights to use that portion
1
of the Beltline which abuts the Parcels for the following purposes: (1) ingress and egress to
Official Tax Map No. 1420201, by agreements with Norfolk Southern dated April 16, 1940, and
November 5, 1974, respectively, (2) a sanitary sewer pipeline pursuant to an agreement with
Norfolk Southern dated June 21, 1940, and (3) extension of a crane runway over a private side
track pursuant to an agreement with Norfolk Southern , dated September 18, 1944 (collectively,
the "Norfolk Southern Agreements "). Prior to the City acquiring the Beltline from Norfolk
Southern, Norfolk Southern terminated each of the Norfolk Southern Agreements.
Considerations:
The City and Walker Foundry have been unable to negotiate terms of an agreement under which
the City will acquire sufficient property rights in the Parcels to allow completion of the Project.
City administration does not wish to initiate eminent domain proceedings with respect to the
Parcels. Moreover, placement of the Greenway on the Beltline in lieu of on the Parcels is not an
alternative option for the Project. For these reasons, City staff recommends that City Council
prohibit use of that portion of Official Tax Map No. 1420202, being part of the Beltline, which
abuts real property of Walker Foundry situated at 2415 Russell Avenue, S.W., Roanoke,
Virginia, bearing Official Tax Map No. 1420201, from being used for the construction, use, or
placement of the Greenway, or for the development of any kind, nature, or type of other public
recreational park or facility without further action by City Council. City staff further
recommends that the City Manager be provided the authority to enter into a license agreement
with Walker Foundry granting to Walker Foundry the same rights as were granted Norfolk
Southern pursuant to the Norfolk Southern Agreements that Walker Foundry may continue to
need, including, and not limited to, the right to use that portion of the Beltline which abuts the
Parcels for purposes of ingress and egress to Official Tax Map No. 1420201.
Recommended Action:
City Council adopts the ordinance attached to this Report to amend Ordinance No. 40143-
010515, adopted January 5, 2015, to (i) prohibit that portion of Official Tax Map No. 1420202,
and being a part of the Beltline, which abuts real property of Walker Foundry situated at 2415
Russell Avenue, S.W., Roanoke, Virginia, bearing Official Tax Map No. 1420201, from being
used for the construction, use, or placement of a public greenway in connection with the Project,
or for the development of any kind, nature, or type of other public recreational park or facility
without further action by City Council, (ii) reaffirm City Council's authorization granted to City
Administration pursuant to Ordinance No. 40143 - 010515 to acquire the necessary property
interests needed by the City for the Project, and (iii) authorize the City Manager to execute a
license agreement with Walker Foundry granting Walker Foundry the same rights that were
granted to Walker Foundry by Norfolk Southern pursuant to the Norfolk Southern Agreements,
that Walker Foundry may continue to need, including, and not limited to, the right to allow
Walker Foundry access across that portion of the Beltline which abuts real property owned by
2
Walker Foundry designated as Official Tax Maps Nos. 1410204 and 1410205, for purposes of
ingress and egress to property-of Walker Foundry bearing Official Tax Map No. 1420201.

To: Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council
Meeting: April 15, 2019
Subject: Application from Seven Hills Investment Properties, LLC, to
rezone the property at 0, 914, 922, 924, and 930 Hershberger
Road, N.W., 4802 Winsloe Drive, N.W., and 3222 Oaklawn

respectively, from R -5, Residential Single - Family District, to
MXPUD, Mixed Use Planned Unit Development.
Summary:
The Planning Commission held a public hearing on April 8, 2019. By a vote of
6 -0, with Commissioner Hale absent, the Commission recommends approval of
the rezoning request. While Amended Application No. 2 represents a
substantial change in residential density, the design details and transportation
improvements included as part of the development plan mitigate the density
increase. The resulting proposal is consistent with the City's Comprehensive
Plan, Williamson Road Area Plan, and Zoning Ordinance as the subject property
will be developed and used in a manner appropriate to the surrounding area.

Amended Application No. 1: March 15, 2019
Amended Application No. 2: March 20, 2019
Background:
Early aerial photos from the 1950's show that the area around the intersection
of Hershberger Road and Williamson Road ( "the intersection ") was developed
with some single - family subdivisions in the midst of large swaths of farmland.
A decade later, aerial photos show the additional development of a regional
commercial center at the northwest corner of the intersection. Since that time
the development and redevelopment of the area has continued to fill in vacant
and underutilized properties along the corridors with additional commercial
and residential uses. To the northwest of the intersection, the area continues
to serve as a major regional and neighborhood commercial center along heavily
traveled arterial streets. To the southwest of the intersection, the area has a
mixture of commercial, industrial and multifamily uses with single family uses
further from the arterial streets. To the northeast the area has a mixture of
commercial, institutional, and multifamily residential uses with single family
uses further from the arterial streets. And, to the southeast the area is
currently developed with commercial and multifamily uses with single - family
residential uses further from the arterial streets.
The applicant wishes to develop the approximately seven acre mostly
undeveloped property in the center of the block on the southeastern corner of
Hershberger and Williamson with apartments, but is unable to within the
current zoning district. Therefore, the applicant wishes to amend the zoning of
the property to MXPUD, Mixed Use Planned Unit Development District.
The applicant held multiple neighborhood meetings to solicit input on their
design of the site for such use. The main questions asked by surrounding
neighbors were regarding the traffic impact of such change on their community
due to the existing traffic issues on Hershberger Road and the scale and
proximity of the built structures to their existing homes.
Proposed Use /Development:
The proposed development is a collection of apartment buildings located within
the interior of an existing, large block. The PUD development plan shows a
consolidation of property that is being acquired from existing parcels, with single -
family residential dwellings to be demolished, along Hershberger Road, Winsloe
Drive, and Oaklawn Avenue. These parcels have a large unbuilt residential area in
the center of the block which would create the development site for the project.
The proposed apartment complex of 203 dwelling units is located in the
undeveloped center of the block with the main entrance off of Hershberger Road.
Most of the apartment buildings are screened from view by the existing
residential dwellings that ring the exterior of the block. As shown on a rendering
2
from the application (below), the development is designed with two -story
buildings that face Hershberger at the entrance and form the majority of the units
that back -up to residential properties on Hershberger Road and Winsloe Drive.

Three -story buildings make up the remainder of the development to the interior of
the new lot. A treed buffer between 10 to 30 feet surrounds the buildings within
the development. Particular trees outside of areas to
be built are noted to remain. Two other entrances/
exits on Winsloe Drive and Oaklawn Avenue are
pprovided. An underground stormwater retention area
provided to handle stormwater from the site. The
development plan also notes that signage will
conform to the requirements of the MX district.
Building elevations are included for the PUD
development plan. The elevations depict two and
three story buildings broken into multiple smaller
elements; shingled gable roofs with windowed
dormers; a mixture of horizontal and vertical fiber
cement siding with possible brick areas on the
fa4ades; a stone or brick watertable; traditional
patterning of windows and door openings with
trim; and porch features at the front entries.

The plan includes a number of transportation /street improvements including:
• Sidewalk along the south side Hershberger connecting to the existing
sidewalk system near Williamson Road to the Hershberger entrance of the
development.
• Reconfiguration of the intersection and lights at Hershberger and
Williamson including a left turn lane, a through lane, and a through /right
combined lane.
• Pedestrian accommodations on the southern and western sides of that
intersection including pedestrian crossing signals.
The development plan does not show phases of development. As such, it is
expected that proposed transportation /street improvements would occur at the
start of development and the various buildings could be constructed and
occupied over time. Any substantial change would require the PUD development
plan to pass through another public process.
Considerations:
Compatibility with Surrounding Land Uses:
The property is located in the center of the block and is surrounded by R -5,
Residential Single Family District. Located just to the west of the property
(within 200 feet) is the edge of the commercial corridor along Williamson Road
and the busy intersection at Williamson and Hershberger. Pockets of IN,
Institutional District, are present throughout the area. In addition, the
Friendship Manor retirement complex is located within a half mile to the east
along Hershberger.
The proposed development will house 203 dwelling units on approximately 6.8
acres of land, translating to a density of +/- 1 dwelling unit per 1,500 square
feet (sf) of lot area. The minimum lot size in the current R -5 district is 5,000 sf.
For comparison the current land could support approximately 47 single family
dwellings based on a lot size of 5,000 sf and an assumption that 20% of the
land area would be lost to streets or inefficiency. The proposed development is
a substantial increase in density over what could be constructed under the
current zoning.
There is land zoned MX, Mixed Use District, and CG, Commercial General
District, in close proximity to the proposed development, moving west towards
Williamson Road. The minimum lot area per dwelling unit in the MX district is
2,500sf /dwelling and there is no limit on the number of dwellings in the CG
district. The proposed development represents an increase in intensity of
residential use similar to what is currently permitted in the CG district along
Williamson Road.
M
Based on the proposed density, the project is a clear shift in intensity away
from the current R -5 zoning towards the unlimited density of the CG District.
Such a shift raises concern with compatibility based on the overall mass of the
development and how the existing transportation system (streets) can
accommodate the intensification.
In massing, the proposed development is sensitive to the adjacent residential
properties as it situates the larger buildings to the interior of the property
ringed by the existing single family homes on the exterior of the block. There
is then a transition within the proposed development by generally locating two -
story buildings adjacent to the existing single - family dwellings. The proposed
buildings are reflective of the surrounding residential community with fa4ades
broken into multiple smaller elements; shingled gable roofs with windowed
dormers; residential siding materials; traditional patterning of windows and
door openings with trim; and front porches.
Along with the scale of the development, potential traffic impacts are an
important consideration. Based on the concern expressed from the public
during the applicant's community meetings and the need to provide a formal
traffic study as part of the development review process, the applicant decided
to perform and submit a Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA) as part of the rezoning
application. A detailed analysis of the study from the City's Transportation
Division traffic engineers is included as Appendix A.
In summary, the developer proposes traffic mitigation strategies with three
significant findings related to the project:
1. The traffic mitigation strategies proposed will actually improve the overall
traffic flow at the intersection of Williamson and Hershberger Road.
2. The pedestrian environment will be much better with the addition of
sidewalk along Hershberger and intersection at Williamson and
Hershberger including pedestrian push buttons and signal heads (could
lead to reduce vehicle trips with residents walking to a bus stop or nearby
destinations at Crossroads or along Williamson Road).
3. The potential for cut - through traffic on other neighborhood streets is
minimal.
The location of the apartments within the block surrounded by the existing
single - family residences creates a mixed residential housing cluster that has
pedestrian access to the commercial hub at Williamson and Hershberger. The
design elements of the development plan, including the elevations of the
buildings, and transportation /street improvements are intended to mitigate
potential impacts related to the increased density. This allows the development
to serve as a transition from the intensive commercial activity along Williamson
Road into the neighborhood setting on this block.
5
Applicability /Appropriateness of Proposed Zoning District:
The proposed MXPUD District allows the applicant flexibility to develop site -
specific standards for the location of the buildings on an irregularly shaped
interior lot while respecting the nearby residential dwellings. The flexibility in
the development standards created by the MXPUD requires conformance with
the development plan adopted. The district is appropriate for apartments
located in the undeveloped interior of a large block surrounded by existing
single family homes near a major commercial center to the west.
Availabilitv of Other Propert
A large apartment complex is only permitted by -right in the RMF, CG, CLS, D, UF,
MXPUD, and INPUD districts. While there are some smaller CG properties in the
general vicinity, there are none of the size that the applicant needs for this project.
Consistency with Comprehensive Plan:
Both Vision 2001 -2020 and the Williamson Road Area Plan recognize the need
for infill housing that is compatible with the surrounding area. The future land
use map in the Williamson Road Area Plan shows the property as a preferred
single - family residential use which raises some concern with the proposed
density of the project (203 dwelling units). However, there are other policy and
actions that should be considered in evaluating the application beyond the
future land use map. The Williamson Road Area Plan identifies an issue with
deep lot subdivisions, such as the block housing the proposed property, noting
that, "some blocks in neighborhoods in the northern parts of the area have lots
that are very deep, creating interior spaces of vacant land. Such areas have the
potential for haphazard development as flag lots. A better approach would be
for willing owners to work together to create a coherent development pattern
that would complement and add value to existing development, such as
housing clusters fronting on narrow lanes."
As part of a housing strategic initiative, Vision 2001 -2020 defines housing
clusters as "market -rate residential developments consisting of a mixture of
residential uses (single family, two - family, townhouses) on a large site, located
within or adjacent to existing developments of established neighborhoods.
Assembly of land for the development of housing clusters will promote
neighborhood revitalization, replace derelict or neglected structures, and
complement the surrounding neighborhood."
The project area is also located in close proximity to the Crossroads strategic
initiative area identified in the Williamson Road Area Plan which looks for
outparcel development within the former Crossroads Mall and overall better use
of land in the area. Development of outparcels has occurred since adoption of
the area plan with two restaurants and a bank in the parking area as well as the
redevelopment of parts of the mall for a grocery store and wholesale club.
A
The proposed project is at a scale beyond "housing clusters fronting on narrow
lanes," as envisioned in the area plan and offers a wider range of housing types
including multifamily dwellings. Overall, the project does create a housing
cluster for the area by mixing single - family dwellings around the perimeter of
the block, with the infill multi - family dwellings. This residential cluster is in
close proximity to the Crossroads area that has become a larger draw as far as
employment and as a commercial destination for residents.

The proposed development
plan specifies upgrades to

Hershberger and Williamson
for pedestrian and vehicular
use and sidewalk along
Hershberger from the
development to Williamson
Road beginning the
transition from road to
street.
The following items were discussed in the Planning Commission Work Session and
should be addressed for compliance with City policy and ordinances.
1) Massing, detailing, and materials of buildings are not included on the
development plan; amend the development plan to include these. This
could be done by stating on the development plan that the buildings will
be built in substantial conformity with "the following documents ".
2) Add language on the development plan "existing trees to remain" if your
intent is to save the large existing trees on the site.
3) Add language on the development plan to address the proposed
landscaping. The following could be appropriate: "The following
landscaping, in addition to the required landscaping in the zoning
ordinance, shall be established as described and maintained hereafter:
"At the time of construction of the first building, the landscape buffer as
depicted on the development plan shall be established and maintained
with a mixture of..."
4) The improvements proposed in traffic study should be noted on the
development plan. If the project is desired to be phased with certain
improvements built during certain phases, the traffic study should reflect
the phasing desired and when the transportation improvements should
be constructed to mitigate the proposed developments impacts on the
surrounding area. However, please recognize that the transportation
improvements proposed are a major part of what makes this application
appropriate to the surrounding area.
5) Signage language on development plan would allow CG signage for the
site that is out of scale for surrounding neighborhood; MX type signage is
more appropriate for this area. Add language to address signage. The
following could be appropriate: "Any new signage on the MXPUD zoned
property will conform to the requirements of the City of Roanoke Zoning
Ordinance, Table 668 -1, for the MX, Mixed Use District."
X
6) Some details on the plan exceed what is required; amend the application
to remove extraneous information such as sizing of underground pipes,
specific tree types (dogwood ilo small deciduous tree), etc.
The second amended application addresses all of these comments by requiring
development in substantial conformity with the attached building elevations,
listing standards for the landscaping, noting the traffic improvements required,
addressing appropriate signage, and removing extraneous information from the
development plan.
Interdepartmental Comments:
General comments were provided from the Fire Marshal's Office, Planning
Department, Stormwater Department, and Transportation Department related to
the site development, storm drain system, and review of the traffic study.
Public Comments:
Paul Springer, 3310 Thurman Avenue, N.W., stated that traffic is already bad in
the area and that he is concerned about noise and dirt during construction and
stormwater drainage from the site.
Elizabeth Ewers, 3138 Oaklawn Avenue, N.W., stated that she would prefer two -
story building behind her property.
Cheryl Patterson, 3216 Oaklawn Avenue, N.W., stated that this development
would not be good and not what they show it to be.
Public Hearing:
Commissioner Atwood asked the Applicant's Agent what the rent would be. Mr.
Alam stated that the goal was to keep it between $750 and $900, somewhere in
that range.
Cheryl Patterson, 3216 Oaklawn Avenue, N.W., had several concerns. She
stated her concern about a lack of fencing between her property and the
complex. She stated that she had attended two meetings and was assured
there would be a fence, but there is only a berm. Ms. Patterson also had a
concern that the complex would be a noise hazard during construction. She
explained that she had to get her property surveyed at her own cost. She is
concerned that the change would affect drainage of stormwater runoff,
especially if the retention pond is not big enough to accommodate that, and
she is concerned about what happens if the money runs out before the complex
is finished. Ms. Patterson expressed concern for the wildlife in the area and
whether the trees would be affected by the digging.
John Quentin Harris, 816 Hershberger Road, N.W., owns property that borders
the complex. He expressed concern over the lack of sidewalks, stating that
10
wheelchair -bound individuals could not commute in that area. He expressed
concern that the complex could eventually be Section 8 housing and proposed
that the City repurpose the area instead for a community park, dog park, other
options. He is also concerned about water and sewer service disruptions during
construction, the dislocation of existing property owners, and a decrease in
property value. He said the complex would be a disturbance in the area, having
203 neighbors, and it could be built better by purchasing all lots in that area
and giving current owners the option to leave.
Karen Mathis, 3209 Oaklawn Avenue, N.W., mentioned sinkhole activity in the
area and was concerned about the increased water and sewer usage, traffic, and
the neighbors and disabled people who are impacted. She stated that she is on
a fixed income and would not be able to afford the proposed rent.
,Jim McGeorge, 3128 Oaklawn Avenue, N.W., is concerned about vehicular
traffic, especially considering that Oaklawn is a narrow street without sidewalks.
He said there are children in the area who ride bikes in the street and elderly
who need to get in and out of their driveways.
Roy Jones, 3209 Oaklawn Avenue, N.W., expressed concern about sinkholes in
the area and the lack of sidewalks on either side of the street. He noted
speeding cars in the area as people try to avoid the traffic light at Hershberger
and Williamson and said the possible increase in traffic scares him.
Hong Lui, City traffic engineer, was present to clarify traffic issues and answer
questions from the Commissioners. He confirmed that there would be an
increase in traffic on Oaklawn, but the traffic analysis indicated that would not
be an issue. He stated that the traffic mitigation strategies proposed will
actually improve the overall traffic flow at the intersection of Williamson and
Hershberger roads, steering traffic there instead of on Oaklawn. He said the
pedestrian environment will be much better with the addition of sidewalk
connections, pedestrian push buttons, and signal heads, creating a much safer
way to cross. He concurred with Commissioner Glenn that the traffic grade on
Oaklawn, even after the proposed development is considered, would be Level A,
which is excellent and means minimal delays.
Chair Smith asked the Applicant's Agent about the sewer and sinkhole issues
that had been mentioned by the speakers. Mr. Alam stated the development
would connect to existing sewer lines that there was not an issue with the
sanitary sewer. He said the stormwater, to minimize run off, would be kept on
the property in an underground storm basin as the neighbors in their meetings
had told them that they didn't want open ponds.
Mr. Alam stated that the traffic engineers believe that the proposed
improvements will pull more traffic to Hershberger and Williamson roads away
from Oaklawn, Winsloe, and other narrower streets, minimizing the impact.
Mr. Alam also said that considering children playing, the goal was to create
community space with running and walking trails, sidewalks, and pedestrian
amenities accessible for neighbors as well.
Commissioner Katz asked Mr. Alam about fencing. Mr. Alam said that in
meetings with neighbors some had made the request for fencing while others
felt it segregated the property. He said the open, welcoming green space that
connects the community is preferred by neighbors and that there was "green
fencing" incorporated to provide boundaries. He stated that fencing would
have an industrial or commercial look that takes away from the environment.
Commissioner Martin asked Mr. Alam if the perimeter of the development
would have sidewalks or provide access points. Mr. Alam said there would be
sidewalks and pedestrian connections. In addition, there would be a trail that
would surround the perimeter so that people could have a 2 to 3 mile run
around the neighborhood, which is impossible now with the traffic, along with
interior sidewalk. Mr. Martin asked if the trail would be ADA compliant, and Mr.
Alam stated that the sidewalks would be, but he was not sure that the trail
would be 100% compliant. He said they would try to make as much of it as
compliant as possible. Ms. Katz asked how many handicapped - accessible units
would be in the property, and Mr. Alam said they intended to follow code. He
showed the floor plan that indicated that the units on the first floor would be
handicapped adaptable.
Mr. Alam clarified the play spaces for children for Commissioner Smith,
pointing out the green space and pool. He said the neighbors were not in favor
of basketball and tennis courts and preferred green space instead.
Mr. Smith asked about the timeframe for construction and stormwater runoff.
Mr. Alam stated that they hope to start the project this fall after approval from
the various departments at the City. He estimated a 2 year project, depending
on the weather and market conditions. One of the requests the City had, Mr.
Alam told the Commissioners, was that the sidewalk and traffic improvements
be done first, which he said may take longer than building the residential
buildings because of review and cost. He said the timeline is not simple to pin
down because of the multiple variables. Mr. Alam said, regarding stormwater
runoff, that the goal is hold the stormwater on the property and not have it run
off to existing streets, creating havoc.
Commissioner Katz stated that stormwater management in the City is strict.
She said more housing in the City is needed. She stated that she intends to
support the application.
Chair Smith said the Commissioners have heard concerns about the sewer,
traffic, fencing, sidewalks, stormwater, and other things, and he believes those
issues have been addressed and that he plans to vote in favor of the
application.
12
Commissioner Martin said that he appreciated what Mr. Alam has done to try to
create and sustain the community there and the provision of access and
amenities for the neighbors. He stated that he intended to vote in favor of the
application.
Conclusions and Recommendations:
The proposed development is a large departure from the Williamson Road Area
Plan, based solely on the future land use map. However, the proposed
development, including detailed design elements and transportation
improvements, achieves many of the policies noted from Vision and the Area
Plan. It uses a mostly undeveloped property in the center of the block for a
higher density residential development near a major commercial center. The
developer sought input from the nearby community and the design is sensitive
to the adjoining neighbors' concerns about the potential traffic impact by
providing traffic control mechanisms that will improve the overall traffic and
transportation options in the area and is sensitive to their concerns about
community character by providing building forms that reflect a traditional
residential nature and placing the buildings in the interior of the block in such a
way as to not completely change the overall character of the surrounding area.
The proposed apartment development is an appropriate addition to the area in
this location as it creates a housing cluster adjacent to a major commercial
center, the Crossroads strategic area. The street improvements along
Hershberger Road create a complimentary pattern with the redevelopment work
that has occurred in the Crossroads area and allows for residents to move more
freely between these areas based on the improvements.

APPENDIX A
TRAFFIC ANALYSIS
Traffic Engineering's review of the proposed Hershberger Meadow apartment
complex included an assessment of the traffic volume expected to be generated
by the development and the modeled impact of that additional traffic volume on
adjacent streets. The 6.82 acre site will utilize an "open core" in the center of a
neighborhood block and would demolish six homes fronting Hershberger Road,
Oaklawn Avenue, and Winsloe Drive in order to provide multiple access points
into the proposed apartment development. A comparison is first made of the trip
generation between the existing six residential homes and the proposed
redevelopment into a 203 unit multi - family housing. According to the Institute of
Transportation Engineering's Trip Generation Manual, the estimated trip
generation of six residential homes is 57 daily, 5 AM, and 6 PM trips. In contrast,
the Hershberger Meadow redevelopment would result in 1,494 daily, 93 AM, and
1 11 PM trips. With the proposed redevelopment resulting in an increase of more
than one hundred (100) trips per hour during the PM peak as well as more than
one thousand (1,000) trips additional trips per day, a Traffic Impact Analysis
(TIA) is required per City Code.
Impact on Williamson and Hershberger Intersection
The TIA showed that the additional traffic from the apartment complex would
impact traffic operations at the intersection of Hershberger and Williamson.
If conditions were kept the same in terms of lane configuration and signal
timing, the average delay per vehicle at the intersection for all vehicular
directions combined would increase by 2 seconds during the AM and 1.3
seconds during the PM as a result of this additional traffic.
Vehicles traveling westbound towards intersection (Away from the
Development)
Without mitigation, vehicles traveling WB on Hershberger would most acutely
see the increased delay, reaching 5.6 seconds in the AM and 4.5 seconds
during the PM. To address these impacts, the TIA proposes reconfiguring the
westbound approach at the intersection, removing the concrete median and
utilizing that pavement width to add a short through lane of 200 feet with a
200 feet taper. With these improvements, total delay at the intersection for all
vehicular directions combined would decrease 2.1 seconds in the AM and 1.2
during the PM versus the existing development pattern traffic expected in
2022. The reduction in delay for vehicles in the WB direction would be
substantial, ranging from 7.9 seconds in the AM and 18 in the PM.
Vehicles traveling eastbound towards intersection (Toward the Development)
Even with the improvements, delays for vehicles traveling eastbound would still
degrade, increasing 1 1 .4 seconds in the AM and 9.5 during the PM. Without
widening Hershberger Road to add another eastbound receiving lane, Traffic
14
Engineering believes there are no easily identifiable mitigation strategies for
vehicles traveling eastbound. Other potential mitigation strategies will be
considered during the engineering phase and include the changing of the
westbound left -turn phasing from protected -only to protected - permitted
through a flashing yellow arrow.
Pedestrian Accommodations
Included in the proposed improvements is a vastly improved pedestrian
environment. Extensive redevelopment has occurred within the Towne Square
shopping center and includes the addition of Bj's Wholesale Club, Krispy Kreme
doughnuts, and Tropical Smoothie Cafe. These types of developments generate
pedestrian activity and currently no pedestrian signal accommodations exist at
the intersection of Williamson /Hershberger. VDOT identified both the
Williamson Road and Hershberger Road corridors as priorities for pedestrian
improvements due to safety factors including crossing distance, speed limit,
traffic volumes, etc and this development will help meet this need by upgrading
the ADA curb ramps and adding pedestrian signals allowing a pedestrian to
request a pedestrian phase at the signal.
Impact on Neighborhood Streets
The neighborhood did express concern over the potential for additional traffic
on Oaklawn Avenue. Based on the proposed layout, the attractiveness of
Oaklawn Avenue as a route through will depend on which unit the resident
lives; many of the units will be closer to Hershberger Road and residents would
tend to use Hershberger rather than navigating through the parking lot to reach
Oaklawn. For those units closer to Oaklawn, exiting to Oaklawn rather than
Hershberger would be faster. Traffic Engineering estimated half of traffic
traveling NB on Williamson Road would use Oaklawn as their primary route to
the apartments versus traveling further to Hershberger Road. It is assumed that
all SB left -turn traffic will utilize the signalized intersection of Hershberger.
Based on traffic counts and these assumptions, traffic traveling eastbound on
Oaklawn from Williamson would increase from 23 to 33 during the AM peak
and from 31 to 34 during the PM peak. Leaving Oaklawn onto Williamson, the
increase would be from 52 to 55 during the AM peak and from 31 to 33 during
the PM peak. This additional traffic is relatively minor and owes to the
attractiveness of the right turn; all left turn traffic will likely utilize the
signalized access at Hershberger.
Summary
In summary, with the existing traffic and new traffic from the proposed
development, the traffic mitigation strategies proposed will actually improve
the overall traffic flow at the intersection of Williamson and Hershberger Road.
Most importantly, the pedestrian environment will be much better with the
addition of pedestrian push buttons and signal heads, creating a much safer
way to cross.

Acreage: 6.82 Acre
Applicant & Actual Owner: Seven Hills Investments, LLC
• The above referenced parcels consist of approximately 6.82 acre of land area with approximately 255 feet of
frontage on Hershberger Rd, 82 feet of frontage on Oaklawn Avenue and 63 feet of frontage on Winsloe
Drive.
• This lot is located within the R5 Zoning District.
With the combined efforts of the Roanoke City Officials, local developers, and the community, the residential
neighborhoods and their supporting commercial services are improving in quality. The project is located next to
Cross Roads Mall area, and close to the intersection of Williamson Road and Hershberger Road. We have developed
this project as a joint venture with the local neighborhood feedback to create a Residential Community in a true
sense of Planned Urban Development (PUD). We are utilizing the existing "open core" in the center of the
neighborhood block with some mixed density housing, and some large open community spaces. We have
surrounded the perimeter of this development with 2 story residential units to minimize the visual impact, with some
3 story residential units in the core surrounding the open community space. Most of these residential units are
created with the design flavor and style of the traditional row house. Even though the units are 2 -3 levels, from the
exterior they appear to be elegantly designed row houses or town homes. The units are staggered with changing
exterior finishes of brick, stone, hardy siding to provide an appealing community. All units have interior stairs and
hallways.
With the exiting 10'h street corridor connection on to Williamson Road, along with other improvements of
commercial and infrastructure developments on Hershberger and Williamson Road, we believe the area needs
additional quality housing. We are providing 203 housing units with custom cabinets, granite countertops and nice
finishes to promote long term sustainable living for varied generations of local population. It is our understanding
that these units will be desired by young and middle age professionals, as well as elderly and senior population. We
have created this design concept based on a traditional exterior courtyard concept that allows us to form desirable
green space for walking, running and socializing. These courtyards open into the large community spaces. Along
with the community spaces, we are also planning to have running and walking trail on the perimeters meandering
through the heavy landscape buffers designed on its entire perimeter. We are planning to build a community fitness
center in the middle, which will provide varied fitness activities for all the residents and adjoining neighbors "free of
charge." We will also include a community ballroom for birthdays and other family functions. Adjoining the
community building, we will build an Olympic size pool for the residents and neighbors. All apartments will be
1,000 s.f. residential units designed to include 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, living room, kitchen, laundry, and other
amenities. The Williamson Road provides an existing bus route for the community. We plan on providing adequate
parking, sidewalk, and access for the community to have pedestrian paths on Hershberger Road. We have provided
Road access from Hershberger Road, Winsloe Drive, and Oaklawn Avenue. If the traffic study and Roanoke City
Traffic Engineering require, we will make the recommended improvements to Hershberger Road, along with the
Williamson Road intersection. We expect the units to rent from $750 to $850 per month.

Acreage: 6.82 Acre
Applicant & Actual Owner: Seven Hills Investments, LLC
• The above referenced parcels consist of approximately 6.82 acre of land area with approximately 255 feet of
frontage on Hershberger Rd, 82 feet of frontage on Oaklawn Avenue and 63 feet of frontage on Winsloe
Drive.
• This lot is located within the R5 Zoning District.
With the combined efforts of the Roanoke City Officials, local developers, and the community, the residential
neighborhoods and their supporting commercial services are improving in quality. The project is located next to
Cross Roads Mall area, and close to the intersection of Williamson Road and Hershberger Road. We have developed
this project as a joint venture with the local neighborhood feedback to create a Residential Community in a true
sense of Planned Urban Development (PUD). We are utilizing the existing "open core" in the center of the
neighborhood block with some mixed density housing, and some large open community spaces. We have
surrounded the perimeter of this development with 2 story residential units to minimize the visual impact, with some
3 story residential units in the core surrounding the open community space. Most of these residential units are
created with the design flavor and style of the traditional row house. Even though the units are 2 -3 levels, from the
exterior they appear to be elegantly designed row houses or town homes. The units are staggered with changing
exterior finishes of brick, stone, hardy siding to provide an appealing community. All units have interior stairs and
hallways.
With the exiting 10"' street corridor connection on to Williamson Road, along with other improvements of
commercial and infrastructure developments on Hershberger and Williamson Road, we believe the area needs
additional quality housing. We are providing 203 housing units with custom cabinets, granite countertops and nice
finishes to promote long term sustainable living for varied generations of local population. It is our understanding
that these units will be desired by young and middle age professionals, as well as elderly and senior population. We
have created this design concept based on a traditional exterior courtyard concept that allows us to form desirable
green space for walking, running and socializing. These courtyards open into the large community spaces. Along
with the community spaces, we are also planning to have running and walking trail on the perimeters meandering
through the heavy landscape buffers designed on its entire perimeter. We are planning to build a community fitness
center in the middle, which will provide varied fitness activities for all the residents and adjoining neighbors "free of
charge." We will also include a community ballroom for birthdays and other family functions. Adjoining the
community building, we will build an Olympic size pool for the residents and neighbors. All apartments will be
1,000 s.f. residential units designed to include 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, living room, kitchen, laundry, and other
amenities. The Williamson Road provides an existing bus route for the community. We plan on providing adequate
parking, sidewalk, and access for the community to have pedestrian paths on Hershberger Road. We have provided
Road access from Hershberger Road, Winsloe Drive, and Oaklawn Avenue. If the traffic study and Roanoke City
Traffic Engineering require, we will make the recommended improvements to Hershberger Road, along with the
Williamson Road intersection. We expect the units to rent from $750 to $850 per month.

Acreage: 6.82 Acre
Applicant & Actual Owner: Seven Hills Investments, LLC
• The above referenced parcels consist of approximately 6.82 acre of land area with approximately 255 feet of
frontage on Hershberger Rd, 82 feet of frontage on Oaklawn Avenue and 63 feet of frontage on Winsloe
Drive.
• This lot is located within the R5 Zoning District.
With the combined efforts of the Roanoke City Officials, local developers, and the community, the residential
neighborhoods and their supporting commercial services are improving in quality. The project is located next to
Cross Roads Mall area, and close to the intersection of Williamson Road and Hershberger Road. We have developed
this project as a joint venture with the local neighborhood feedback to create a Residential Community in a true
sense of Planned Urban Development (PUD). We are utilizing the existing "open core" in the center of the
neighborhood block with some mixed density housing, and some large open community spaces. We have
surrounded the perimeter of this development with 2 story residential units to minimize the visual impact, with some
3 story residential units in the core surrounding the open community space. Most of these residential units are
created with the design flavor and style of the traditional row house. Even though the units are 2 -3 levels, from the
exterior they appear to be elegantly designed row houses or town homes. The units are staggered with changing
exterior finishes of brick, stone, hardy siding to provide an appealing community. All units have interior stairs and
hallways.
With the exiting 10`h street corridor connection on to Williamson Road, along with other improvements of
commercial and infrastructure developments on Hershberger and Williamson Road, we believe the area needs
additional quality housing. We are providing 203 housing units with custom cabinets, granite countertops and nice
finishes to promote long term sustainable living for varied generations of local population. It is our understanding
that these units will be desired by young and middle age professionals, as well as elderly and senior population. We
have created this design concept based on a traditional exterior courtyard concept that allows us to form desirable
green space for walking, running and socializing. These courtyards open into the large community spaces. Along
with the community spaces, we are also planning to have running and walking trail on the perimeters meandering
through the heavy landscape buffers designed on its entire perimeter. We are planning to build a community fitness
center in the middle, which will provide varied fitness activities for all the residents and adjoining neighbors "free of
charge." We will also include a community ballroom for birthdays and other family functions. Adjoining the
community building, we will build an Olympic size pool for the residents and neighbors. All apartments will be
1,000 s.f. residential units designed to include 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, living room, kitchen, laundry, and other
amenities. The Williamson Road provides an existing bus route for the community. We plan on providing adequate
parking, sidewalk, and access for the community to have pedestrian paths on Hershberger Road. We have provided
Road access from Hershberger Road, Winsloe Drive, and Oaklawn Avenue. If the traffic study and Roanoke City
Traffic Engineering require, we will make the recommended improvements to Hershberger Road, along with the
Williamson Road intersection. We expect the units to rent from $750 to $850 per month.

Hershberger Road Development Traffic Impact Analysis
1. Introduction
This technical memorandum summarizes the results of a traffic impact analysis that explored the impacts
of the proposed Hershberger Road Development on the nearby intersections.
The proposed Hershberger Road Development is located between Hershberger Road and Oaklawn
Avenue in the City of Roanoke, Virginia and will consist of 203 townhomes. Illustrations of the site
vicinity and location are provided in Figure 1 and Figure 2.
Per the pre - scoping coordination meeting form, access to the proposed development will be provided from
three locations, including from Hershberger Road, Oaklawn Avenue, and Winsloe Road. This
memorandum examined the study intersections as listed in the following. Figure 3 illustrates the site
accesses and the study intersections.
1. Hershberger Road/Williamson Road;
2. Williamson Road / Oaklawn Avenue;
3. Hershberger Road/Winsloe Road;
4. Oaklawn Avenue/Winsloe Road W;
5. Oaklawn Avenue/Winsloe Road E;
6. Hershberger Road/Site Entrance North;
7. Winsloe Road /Site Entrance East;
8. Oaklawn Avenue /Site Entrance South.
The analysis of this memorandum includes the existing conditions, 2022 no build conditions, 2022 build
conditions, 2022 mitigation conditions, and 2022 additional scenario conditions (as requested by the City
of Roanoke).
The intention of this study is to examine the impacts of the proposed Hershberger Road Development on
the nearby intersections and the mitigation approaches.

2. Methodology
The methodology of this analysis includes the followings:
Field Review
A field review in the weekday peak AM and PM periods was performed to observe the traffic operations
which was utilized to evaluate the traffic operation model.
Data Collection
The following traffic counts were performed for the study intersections —
• 12 -Hour Turning Movement Counts at Hershberger Road/Williamson Road, Hershberger
Road /Winsloe Road, Williamson Road/Oaklawn Avenue;
• 4 -Hour Turning Movement Counts at Winsloe Road/Oaklawn Avenue E and Winsloe
Road /Oaklawn Avenue W;
• 48 -Hour Bi- directional Counts at the three proposed site entrances.
Signal timing data was obtained from the City of Roanoke for the intersection of Hershberger
Road/Williamson Road.
VDOT historical traffic data were obtained from VDOT to derive the annual vehicle trip growth rates.
Traffic Volume Projection
The existing traffic volumes, 2022 no build traffic volumes, 2022 build site trips, and 2022 build traffic
volumes were calculated using the data obtained. The traffic volume projection set has been coordinated
with and approved by the City of Roanoke prior to commencing with the traffic operations analysis.
Traffic Operations Analysis
The traffic operations analysis for the study intersections was completed using Synchro /SimTraffic 9.2, a
computer -based traffic operation model that replicates procedures from the Highway Capacity Manual
(HCM) (Transportation Research Board, 2000 and 2010).
The traffic operation model was developed using aerial mapping, roadway geometry, signal timing data,
and traffic volumes, and evaluated using the field observations.
Signal Warrant Analysis
MUTCD signal warrants were used to evaluate the traffic signal need at the intersection of Williamson
Road /Oaklawn Avenue.
Turn Lane Warrant Anal
VDOT turn lane warrants were evaluated for the three proposed site entrances. The turn lane warrant
forms per the VDOT Road Design Manual were examined in this study.

Site Trip Distribution and ASSiQmnent
Per the traffic study scoping and coordination with the City, site trip distribution was performed based on
the existing traffic counts, input from City staff, and professional engineering judgment. The site trip
distribution assumptions are illustrated in Figure 6 and the estimated site trip distribution percentages at
study intersections are illustrated in Figure 7.
The estimated site trips shown in Table 1 were assigned to the roadway network per the site trip
distributions. Site trip assignments are illustrated in Figure 8.
2022 Build Traffic Volumes
The site trips as illustrated in Figure 8 were added to the 2022 no build traffic volumes as illustrated in
Figure 5 resulting 2022 build traffic volumes. 2022 build traffic volumes are illustrated in Figure 9.
The traffic volume proiection set as summarized above has been coordinated with and approved by the City
of Roanoke prior to commencine with the traffic operations analysis
S. Existing, 2022 No Build, and 2022 Build Traffic Operations Analysis
The traffic operations analysis for the study intersections was completed using Synchro /SimTraffic 9.2, a
computer -based traffic operation model that replicates procedures from the Highway Capacity Manual
(HCM) (Transportation Research Board, 2000 and 2010). The traffic operation model was developed
using aerial mapping, roadway geometry, signal timing data, and traffic volumes, and evaluated using the
field observations.
Existing Conditions
Synchro /SimTraffic 9.2 was used to analyze the existing traffic operations. The level of service, delay,
and queue results are summarized in Table 2, and included in Appendix D (HCM 2010 Reports),
Appendix E (SimTraffic Delay Reports), and Appendix F (SimTraffic Queue Reports).
Note —the traffic controls at the intersections of Winsloe Road /Oaklawn Avenue E and Winsloe Road /Oaklawn Avenue Ware
not standard Two -way Stop or All -way Stop. HCM methodology does not provide analysis to the intersections of Winsloe
Road /Oaklawn Avenue E and Winsloe Road /Oaklawn Avenue W, and thus SimTraffic delays and levels ofservice were used at
the intersections of Winsloe Road /Oaklawn Avenue E and Winsloe Road /Oaklawn Avenue W.
As shown in Table 2, in the existing conditions:
The intersection of Hershberger Road/Williamson Road operates at LOS E overall with many
movements operating at LOS E or F and long queues at all approaches (approximately 400 feet
maximum at Hershberger eastbound and Williamson southbound approaches and approximately
600 feet maximum at Hershberger westbound and Williamson northbound approaches). It should
be noted that the maximum queue at Williamson northbound approach spills back to the
intersection of Williamson Road/Oaklawn Avenue and results in approximately 30 feet queue at
Williamson northbound approach at the intersection of Williamson Road/Oaklawn Avenue.
All other study intersections operate at LOS A overall with all movements operating at LOS C or
better and with minimal queues.

A.I.
Hello — my name is Valerie Brown and I am the new Executive Director
of WRABA — the Williamson Road Area Business Association. As
such, I am here to speak on behalf of the Board in general, and myself as
Executive Director in particular, in support of the proposed development
— Herschberger Meadows.
This proposed development offers to those who want to live in
downtown Roanoke but who cannot afford the downtown prices an
option that equals that convenience — is a win all the way around.
It's a win to those who will choose to live in the new townhomes —
upscale living in affordable homes close to downtown but more so —
close to shops and restaurants up and down Williamson Road,
It's a win to the neighborhood — as empty lots are being
transformed into family friendly areas,
And a win for the businesses and restaurants on Williamson Road
and neighboring areas as businesses who are frequented will grow and
flourish.
I know that some of the long -time neighborhood residents have some
concerns regarding traffic, water run -off, utility issues, current lack of
sidewalks, fencing, etc. But from what I have seen in a short time, the
developer (Alam Design Group) is willing to work with, answer and find
solutions to these concerns. Their vision is truly not only one for the
development community as a whole but also for the surrounding areas.
It is my impression as a relative new -comer to the area that Williamson
Road, and all that it has to offer, has been one of those well -kept secrets
whether it wanted to be or not — and it doesn't want to be a secret any
longer. Supporting this development, and hopefully others who follow,
will serve, in my opinion, as an affordable invitation to be a part of ALL
that Roanoke has to offer. It is for these reasons that the Williamson
Road Area Business Association is in support of this proposed
development.
Thank you.

Application Information:
Request: Vacation of a portion of undeveloped alley
Applicant: Roy Main
Owner: Roy Main
City Staff Person: Wayne Leftwich, Senior City Planner
Official Tax Nos.: A portion of undeveloped alley adjacent to Official Tax
Map Nos. 1313510, 1313501
Site Area: +/- 1,200 s.f.
Relevant Plans: Hurt Park /Mountain View /West End Neighborhood Plan
Filing Date: February 21, 2019
Background:
The applicant seeks to vacate a 100 foot portion of alleyway perpendicular to
20th Street, S.W., and between Chapman Avenue, S.W., and Patterson Avenue,
S.W. The applicant was previously granted a vacation of the right of way, and
completed several of the steps to make the vacation official, but failed to
submit a final plat before the one year expiration of the ordinance granting the
vacation. Since the one year term elapsed, the ordinance expired and so the
applicant must request the vacation again. In coordination with the previously
approved vacation, the applicant has already paid $1,397 for the vacation of the
public's right to use the portion of the subject right of way.
Proposed Use /Development:
The applicant is seeking vacation to clean up the overgrowth of brush and trees
and to connect the adjacent properties together along with the vacated portion
of alley for security purposes. This portion of alley is undeveloped and because
of the topography in this area, it is unlikely that the alleyway would ever be
developed.
2
Considerations:
Impact of Alley Vacation to Public Accessibility:
The portion of alley proposed for vacation appears to have never been
developed. The existing terrain would likely prohibit any future development as
an alley. The block in question has a different development pattern from the
residentially developed blocks to the north and east. The block appears to have
never been fully developed as residential, but instead was left for commercial
and industrial uses. In fact, the block is currently zoned CG, Commercial -
General, and 1-1, Light Industrial.
Consistency with Comprehensive Plan:
The City's Comprehensive Plan states that Roanoke will have a sustainable, diverse
economic base and supports revitalization of underutilized commercial and
industrial sites. The proposed alley vacation will help the business and property
owner clear the overgrown vegetation and fence the area to create a greater sense
of security for the business.
The Hurt Park /Mountain View /West End Neighborhood Plan encourages infill
development of vacant parcels in the Light Industrial areas, and states that
commercial and industrial uses should improve buffers, consider planting trees or
establishing green space. This alley vacation will allow the property owner to
better maintain the property, removing overgrown brush, and potentially help
support future expansion of infill development on the vacant parcel to the south.

Comments on Application:
Public Utilities:
Western Virginia Water Authority approved the request but stated that this alley
contains a WVWA sewer main and will require a plat with a 20' sewerline

easement dedicated to the WVWA over the main. No comments were received
from Roanoke Gas, Appalachian Power Company, or Verizon.
City Departments:
Transportation approved but stated the following:
As a general matter, the Transportation Division does not want dead -end alleys
to be created. If the alley were ever improved, maintenance for dead -end alleys
becomes a nightmare for large maintenance trucks. In this case, however, the
topography limits the potential for the alley to ever be improved and thus
Transportation is comfortable with this being an exception.
Planning Commission Work Session:
No comments.
Public Comments:
Staff has received two a -mails related to the alley vacation. Both a -mails were
concerned with the general practice of vacating alleys and the loss of future
connections and alley uses. Staff responded with more information on this
particular section of alley, and one of the commenters asked to change her
comment to the following: Please continue to evaluate all alley vacations for
potential transportation uses such as pedestrian and bicycle connections or
refuse collection.
The other commenter did not respond, but the original email stated:
Dear Roanoke City Planning Commission,
Preserve our Alley's. The city has a grid system that protects the integrity of
urban neighborhood design. "Paper Alleys" and existing right of way should be
protected from encroachment by adjoining property owners.
Roanoke Virginia should not give up ownership of alleys. Alleys displayed on
the grid and paper alleys are potentially part of an extended alternative
transportation corridor that can /will connect our residential, commercial and
public space. Trespass - NO! Do not give away city property!
Brush and Alley cleanup? Residents are responsible for maintenance of alleys.
Vacating Alleys destroys neighborhood integrity.
Please include in the update to the comprehensive plan the use of Alleys as
potential alternative transportation corridors for safe routes to school, for off
road and sidewalk dog walking green space.
Planning Commission Public Hearing_
No comments.

Conclusions and Recommendations:
The application is consistent with the City's Comprehensive Plan and the Hurt
Park /Mountain View /West End Neighborhood Plan. Planning Commission
recommends vacation of the right -of -way as requested subject to the
aforementioned conditions.

AN ORDINANCE amending and re- ordaining Section 7 -34, Findings, designation of
rental inspection districts, Section 7 -35, Definitions, Section 7 -36, Applicability, Section 7 -39,
Exemptions, Section 7 -42, Display of certificate of exemption, Section 7 -43, Alteration of
certificate of exemption, and Section 7 -45, Appeals, Article III, Rental Certificate of
Compliance, Chapter 7, Building Regulations, of the Code of the City of Roanoke (1979) as
amended, to amend the designations of certain of the City's rental inspection districts by
expansion of some of the districts, elimination of some districts and portions of other districts,
and to make certain other changes to conform with applicable state law and current practices;
providing for an effective date: and dispensing with the second reading of this ordinance by title.
WHEREAS, the City of Roanoke's rental inspection districts were established in part by
Ordinance No. 33552, adopted by Roanoke City Council on September 2, 1997, as amended,
pursuant to Section 36.1- 105.1:1,Code of Virginia (1950) as amended, to protect the public
health, safety, and welfare of occupants residing in rental dwelling units located within such
districts, based upon findings made by the local governing body that rental dwelling units located
within such districts are blighted or deteriorating, or are in need of inspection to prevent such
blight or deterioration, in order to ensure that such occupants and other residents living in such
districts, maintain safe, decent and sanitary living conditions,
WHEREAS, the City desires to amend its existing rental inspection districts to (1) expand
the Northwest Rental Inspection District, and add a new Eastern Avenue, N.E., Rental Inspection
District, based upon findings made by the City that rental dwelling units located within such
districts are blighted or deteriorating, or are in need of inspection to prevent such blight or
deterioration, and rental inspections are necessary to protect the public health, safety, and
welfare, (2) eliminate the Westside Boulevard Rental Inspection District, Tinker Drive, N.E.
Rental Inspection District, because findings can no longer be supported by the City that the
rental dwelling units located within such districts are blighted or deteriorating, or are in need of
inspection to prevent such blight or deterioration, (3) remove certain areas from the Southeast
Rental Inspection District and Southwest Rental Inspection District, because properties in those
areas are owned by the City of Roanoke Redevelopment and Housing Authority and are subject
to Federal inspection requirements, (4) substitute a map for the current description of the
Williamson Road, N.E., Rental Inspection District, and (5) make certain other minor updates to
Section 7 -34 of the City Code to conform to existing state law and current practice, as further set
forth in the City Manager's Report to City Council dated April 15, 2019; and
WHEREAS, a public hearing was scheduled and advertised for two weeks pursuant to

property owners and an opportunity for public comment for City Council to consider this matter.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA
°t �b
To: Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council
Meeting: April 15, 2019
Subject: Public Hearing to Amend and Re- ordain Section 7 -34, Findings,
designation of rental inspection districts, Code of the City of
Roanoke 0 979) as amended, to Amend the Definitions of the
Districts By the Addition and Removal of Certain Areas
Background:
Pursuant to Section 36.1-105.1:1 ,Code of Virginia (1950) as amended, localities
are authorized to create rental inspection districts within designated areas of
the community in order to protect the public health, safety, and welfare of
occupants residing in rental dwelling units located within such districts, based
upon findings made by the local governing body that the rental dwelling units
within the district are blighted or deteriorating, or are in need of inspection to
prevent such blight or deterioration, in order to ensure that such occupants and
other residents living in such district, maintain safe, decent and sanitary living
conditions.
The City of Roanoke currently has several areas of the City designated as rental
inspection districts. These districts are currently described as the Southwest
Rental Inspection District, Northwest Rental Inspection District, Southeast
Rental Inspection District, Westside Boulevard Rental Inspection District, Tinker
Drive, N.E., Rental Inspection District, and the Williamson Road, N.E., Rental
Inspection District. The boundaries of such districts are more specifically
described in Section 7 -34, Code of the City of Roanoke (1979) as amended.
The City proposes to amend the existing rental inspection districts, and
establish a new rental inspection district, as follows:
(1) Removal of the properties commonly known as the Morningside Manor
and Indian Rock Village public housing developments from the
Southeast Rental Inspection District, at the request of the Roanoke
Redevelopment and Housing Authority (RRHA), and removal of the
Hurt Park public housing development from the Southwest Rental
Inspection District. Rental inspections of these properties are no
longer necessary because they undergo regular inspections from the
Department of Housing and Urban Development, and findings of
blight and deterioration to the extent that pose a danger to the public
health, safety, and welfare of occupants and residents of such districts
can no longer be supported by the City,
(2) Elimination of both the Westside Boulevard Rental Inspection District
and Tinker Drive, N.E., Rental Inspection District entirely, as findings
can no longer be supported by the City that the rental properties
located within these districts are blighted and deteriorating to the
extent that pose a danger to the public health, safety, and welfare of
occupants and residents of such districts,
(3) Expansion of the Northwest Rental Inspection District to include the
corridor along 10 Street and Hunt Ave. N.W.; and
(4) The addition of a new district, to be known as the Eastern Avenue,
N.E., Rental Inspection District.
In addition, other amendments to Section 7 -35 Definitions, Section 7 -36
Applicability, Section 7 -39 Exemptions, Section 7 -42 Display of certificate of
compliance, Section 7 -43 Alteration of rental certificate of compliance, and
Section 7 -45 Appeals are proposed to clarify and update terms used, and to
ensure appropriate administration of the rental inspection program.
Considerations:
Pursuant to state law, before a locality may establish or amend rental inspection
districts, a public hearing is required to be held by the governing body before it
may consider the matter. The public hearing must be advertised once a week
for two consecutive weeks in a newspaper in general circulation. This public
hearing was authorized by City Council on March 18, 2019, and notice of the
public hearing was advertised in The Roanoke Times on April 1, 2019 and April
8, 2019
Recommended Action:
Following the public hearing and subject to comments made at the public
hearing, City Council make the findings as set forth in Section 36.1-105.1:1,
Code of Virginia (1950) as amended, and adopt an Ordinance amending and re-
ordaining various sections, as noted above, of Article III, Rental Certificate of
Compliance, Chapter 7, Building Regulations, of the Code of the City of
Roanoke (1979), as amended.

Findings, designation of rental inspection districts, Article III, Rental Certificate of Compliance,
Chapter 7, Building Regulations, Code of the City of Roanoke (1979) as amended. The purpose
of the proposed amendments are to: (1) expand the Northwest Rental Inspection District, and add
a new Eastern Avenue, N.E., Rental Inspection District, based upon findings made by the City
that rental dwelling units located within such districts are blighted or deteriorating, or are in need
of inspection to prevent such blight or deterioration, and rental inspections are necessary to
protect the public health, safety, and welfare, (2) eliminate the Westside Boulevard Rental

be supported by the City that the rental dwelling units located within such districts are blighted
or deteriorating, or are in need of inspection to prevent such blight or deterioration, (3) remove
certain areas from the Southeast Rental Inspection District and Southwest Rental Inspection
District, because these properties are owned by the City of Roanoke Housing and
Redevelopment Authority and are subject to Federal inspection requirements, (4) substitute a
map for the current description of the Williamson Road, N.E., Rental Inspection District, and (5)
make certain other minor updates to Section 7 -34 of the City Code to conform to existing state

Good evening,
I am Officer Chris Levering of the Roanoke Police Department. I am the President of the
Roanoke City Police Association and I am here to speak on their behalf. First, I would like to
thank the women and men of city council for affording us this opportunity. Second, let me say
that it is not the intent of the Association to minimize other City of Roanoke employees or the
departments they represent - -we merely want to inform you of the current situation concerning
salary and staffing for the Roanoke Police Department.
Over the past 9 months the Roanoke Police Association has utilized the services of Franck
Analytics from Blacksburg to research pay disparities between the Roanoke Police Department
and a number of comparable jurisdictions both locally and throughout the state. The findings
determined that sworn RPD officers , at almost every rank, are paid less than their counterparts
in jurisdictions of equal size or smaller; all while handling a significantly larger volume of work
for property and violent crime offenses. Further, it was determined that salary compression
(which occurs when the difference in salary between new and experienced employees is small,
often caused by increasing starting salaries while not adjusting salaries for those already
employed) is a significant problem for the Roanoke Police Department.
These issues have led to the Roanoke Police Department losing on average 31 officers per year
over the past three years. While some of our attrition can be attributed to retirements and
terminations, the majority of this loss is officers leaving for better paying jobs. While once
unheard of in our agency, it is now not uncommon for an officer with 10 -15 years of service to
leave for better employment opportunities. While implementing a 3 -year employment
contract for non - certified new hires has helped, officers are now seeing the value in paying out
their contract to seek better employment. Our police academy has struggled recently to hire
qualified applicants that meet our very high standards, specifically in the area of protected class
candidates. With our agency running two basic training academies per year with an average of
12 -15 recruits per class (not all will graduate), we simply cannot catch up to the necessary
staffing demands created by the present rates of attrition. We are losing the fully trained and
experienced officers at a rapid rate; and new employees are now recognizing that their
academy training affords them greater compensation at other police organizations.
In early March we presented several solutions to City Manager Bob Cowell and Assistant City
Manager Brian Townsend. Each solution was designed to not only address the compression
issue, but fix it permanently. The highest cost of these solutions would come in at
approximately $1,000,000 with the lower end solutions just over $600,000. As expected, we
were told funds are simply not available. This leads us to the current fiscal disparities in the
Roanoke City budget. Over the past 6 months, we have seen raises for both City Council and
Roanoke City Public Schools.
In January of this year, City Council voted themselves a 34.4% raise (and 13.6% raise for the
mayor) citing the need to appropriately compensate staff for the amount of work done in a city
the size of Roanoke. They also cited the need to keep City of Roanoke compensation in line
with other similarly sized cites. I present this question to City Council; would this same logic not
also apply to others in the City of Roanoke?
Roanoke City Public Schools also agreed to raise average salary by 3% and increase starting
salary by 4.8 %. This results in a new teacher starting at $42,000, several thousand higher than
a starting police officer. This is funded by the council approved mandate that sees Roanoke City
Public Schools receive 40% of local taxes. This year alone Roanoke City Public Schools will see
an additional budget increase of just over $2.1 million over the adopted budget for FY2019; all
the while maintaining a surplus that could fund numerous departmental requests across the
city.
As City employees, we acknowledge our love for this city and our dedication to keeping all
individuals in Roanoke as safe as possible. However, the safety of our citizens and school
children are compromised when police personnel continue to operate below allocated staffing
numbers brought about primarily by the City Administrations complacent approach to the
issues of salary and retention. Citizens find it shocking that the starting salary of a Roanoke
Police Officer is only $38,115.62; as smaller agencies within fifty miles of Roanoke will move
beyond $40,000 effective July 11t
We too love and appreciate the city school system; many of our kids attend these very schools;
some officers have spouses employed by the school system. But the funding disparity created
in the city budgets' present allocations to the school system is unequitable. The 40%
distribution of meals tax funding in conjunction with the regular distributions afforded by State
Code extend beyond what is reasonable during difficult economic times. As employees of
public safety, we can longer afford to remain silent when the City of Roanoke's failure to
respond jeopardizes the safety of everyone. It is well past time to make public safety issues a
priority, not using lip service to the issues as has been the case for over five years. With each
unfilled position at the police department we continue to lose a little bit more capacity to
provide service to the citizens of this community. We understand the importance of educating
students, and you cannot put a price on a quality education; just as you cannot put a price on
safety —something just as important as education. We ask you as members of Roanoke City
Council to direct the administration of this City to implement short term and long term
measures to address the needs of salary adjustments and personnel retention.
Thank you for your time and attention to this matter.

NOTICE OF PROPOSED REAL PROPERTY TAX INCREASE
Pursuant to Section 58.1 -3321, Code of Virginia (1950), as amended, notice is hereby
given that the City of Roanoke proposes to increase property tax levies.
Assessment Increase: The total assessed value of real property, excluding additional
assessments due to new construction or improvements to property, exceeds last
year's total assessed value of real property by 2.70 percent.
2. Lowered Rate Necessary to Offset Increased Assessment: The tax rate which would
levy the same amount of real estate tax as last year, when multiplied by the new total
assessed value of real estate with the exclusions mentioned above, would be $1.209
per $100.00 of assessed value. This rate will be known as the "lowered tax rate."
3. Effective Rate Increase: The City of Roanoke proposes to adopt a tax rate of $1.22
per $100.00 of assessed value. The difference between the lowered tax rate and the
proposed tax rate would be $.011 per $100.00, or 0.87 percent. This difference will be
known as the "effective tax rate increase." Individual property taxes may, however,
increase at a percentage greater than or less than the above percentage.
4. Proposed Total Budget Increase: Based on the proposed real property tax rate and
changes in other revenues, the total budget of the City of Roanoke will exceed last
year's budget by not more than 3.0 percent.
5. Statement with Respect to the Proposed Budget for FY 2020: The City of Roanoke's
proposed budget for FY 2020 referenced in Paragraph No. 4 above is based on the
proposed real property tax rate, together with other potential changes to existing
revenue sources. This is an estimate only. The City's actual budget for FY 2020 may
be less than the City's FY 2019 adopted budget by as much as 1.0 percent, or may
exceed the City's FY 2019 adopted budget by as much as 3.0 percent.
A public hearing on the "effective tax rate increase" will be held on Thursday, April 25,
2019, at 7:10 p.m., or as soon thereafter as the matter may be heard, in the City Council
Chamber, Noel C. Taylor Municipal Building, 215 Church Avenue, S.W., Roanoke, Virginia.
All persons desiring to be heard shall be accorded an opportunity to present oral testimony
within such reasonable time limits as shall be determined by City Council.
If you are a person with a disability who needs accommodations for this public hearing,
please contact the City Clerk's Office, (540) 853 -2541, by 12:00 Noon, Monday, April 22,

Good evening Mayor Lea and members of City Council.
The FY 2019 -20 HUD Annual Action Plan is presented tonight for your review and public
comment.
At the time of publication of the proposed plan on March 25, 2019, the city had not received
verification from HUD of our entitlement funding for FY 2019 -20. Revenues were estimated
using a 5 year average of entitlement receipts for Community Development Block Grant, HOME
Investment Partnership and Emergency Solutions Grant funding. Along with carryover from
prior years, proposed expenditures were advertised at $2,415,494 for these three programs
and related activities.
On April 12, 2019, we received verification of our actual entitlements from HUD. We were
pleased to hear that our actual entitlements exceeded the estimated sums. CDBG entitlements
for FY 2019 -20 are to be $1,734,157, up from the estimated $1,580,300; HOME is to be
$662,255, up from estimated $444,923 and ESG is to be $146,988, up from $136,400 estimated.
With the need to only use a very small carryover from prior years in ESG, we are now proposing
an annual plan totaling $2,555,594. The changes to the original proposed plan are allowed by
HUD due to the delays in notifying localities of their entitlements and by including language in
the public notice of areas of adjustments once actual figures were known.
The HUD annual plan is compiled each year by beginning our public input in November by
meeting with potential applicants for funding and briefing them on the priorities and objectives
sought by the city for eligible uses of these HUD funds. In January 2019, applications were
received totaling $3,474,531. Each application was vetted by staff of the Community Resources
office for eligibility and adherence to the city's priorities. In February /March of 2019, the
various funding application were reviewed by the Blue Ridge Interagency Council on
Homelessness for ESG requests, a citizen review team for Public Services using CDBG, a citizen
review team for Community Development for CDBG and HOME, and finally, by the Roanoke
Neighborhood Alliance for the Neighborhood Development Grants offered to eligible LMI
neighborhoods. The resulting spending plan of $2,555,594 is a culmination of the
recommendations from the various committees and city administrative staff. While we
received many worthy applications, we simply cannot fund all requests to meet the needs of
the community given our entitlement limitations.
The revised proposed plan funds a total of 27 different activities among the various nonprofits
and neighborhood associations. Categories of spending are as follows:
Homeless Services - $159,182
Housing Development - $1,389,766
Human Services - $183,625
Neighborhood Development - $529,476
Planning and Administration - $293,545
The city will once again be focusing a majority of these funds into the Melrose- Orange Target
Area, with a concentration on affordable and sustainable housing for low to moderate income
citizens, human services aimed at LMI families, homelessness prevention and rapid rehousing,
and addressing blighting conditions.
We are accepting public comment on the proposed plan during a 30 day comment period as
prescribed by law and our Citizens Participation Plan. Comments received tonight during the
public hearing may be included in the final action plan to be submitted to HUD no later than
May 15, 2019.
I am here tonight to answer any questions you may have on the recommendations contained in
the proposed annual action plan. Thank you for your continued commitment to utilize CDBG,
HOME and ESG funds to the fullest benefit to our most at risk community needs.
CITY OF ROANOKE
HUD ENTITLEMENT GRANTS
FY 2019.2020 ANNUAL PLAN SUMMARY
Overview
The City of Roanoke anticipates receiving approximately $2.5 million in new funds annually from the U.S. Department of Housing
and Urban Development (HUD) in three grants: Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), HOME Investment Partnerships
(HOME) and Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG). Roanoke is an entitlement community under these HUD programs. This means
that HUD funds are allocated to the City every year using a formula based on population, income levels, and other factors. The
amount that the City receives then depends on how much Congress appropriates for the entire nation.
CDBG
CDBG funds have been allocated to the City since 1975 and can be used for activities ranging from housing to economic
development and from job training to infrastructure projects. For the 2019 -2020 program year, the City is scheduled to receive
$1,734,157 in new CDBG funds. CDBG funds are primarily intended to benefit low- and moderate - income persons and areas,
though a limited amount can also be used for reducing blight in economically distressed areas. The amount of funds that can be
used for administration, planning, and human services is also limited by regulation and City Council policy; however, the 2019-
2020 Annual Plan has administrative cost at 13.0% of total enttlement, well below the 20% threshold allowed by HUD.
�C47 1I
The HOME program is exclusively for housing to benefit those of low or moderate income, including rehabilitation, new
construction, homeownership assistance, and improvements to rental housing. The City has been receiving HOME funds since
1992. For the 2019 -2020 program year, the City is scheduled to receive $662,255 in new HOME funds. HOME funds require a
12.5% match, which is met with volunteer labor from Habitat for Humanity projects funded with HOME dollars At least 15% of
each annual HOME grant must be invested in qualifying projects conducted by Community Housing Development Organizations
CCHDOs "). Currently, Habitat for Humanity is the only CHDO serving the city. Administrative expenses for HOME are set at
$66,205, below the 10% maximum allowed.
ESG
The emphasis for use of Emergency Solutions Grant funds has shifted from providing for activities that assist homeless individuals
and families to early intervention and prevention of homelessness. HUD has issued new rules for the distribution of these funds by
entitlement communities, which are being assessed by city staff and the Roanoke Valley Council of Community Services. Total
funding in FY 2019 -2020 is scheduled to be $146,988 including $12,194 in carryover funds from a prior year.
