Supported by leading thinkers from many traditions, the Charter calls on us to activate the Golden Rule around the world. The principle of compassion lies at the heart of all religious, ethical and spiritual tradi- tions, calling us always to treat all others as we wish to be treated ourselves. Com- passion impels us to work tirelessly to alleviate the suffering of our fellow creatures, to dethrone ourselves from the centre of our world and put another there, and to honour the inviolable sanctity of every single human being, treating everybody, without exception, with absolute justice, equity and respect. It is also necessary in both public and private life to refrain consistently and empathically from inflicting pain. To act or speak violently out of spite, chauvinism, or self- interest, to impoverish, exploit or deny basic rights to anybody, and to incite hatred by denigrating others --even our enemies —is a denial of our common humanity.We acknowledge that we have failed to live compassionately and that some have even increased the sum of human misery in the name of religion. We therefore call upon all men and women--to restore compassion to the centre of morality and religion –to return to the ancient principle that any interpreta- tion of scripture that breeds violence, hatred or disdain is illegitimate –to ensure that youth are given accurate and respectful information about other traditions, religions and cultures–to encourage a positive appreciation of cultural and religious diversity- -to cultivate an informed empathy with the suffering of all human beings —even those regarded as enemies. We urgently need to make compassion a clear, luminous and dynamic force in our polarized world. Rooted in a principled determination to transcend selfishness, compassion can break down political, dogmatic, ideological and religious boundaries. Born of our deep interdependence, compassion is essential to human re- lationships and to a fulfilled humanity. It is the path to enlightenment, and indispensible to the creation of a just economy and a peaceful global community. In 2008, Karen Armstrong won the TED Prize for her wish to create a Charter for Compassion. Thousands of people contrib- uted to the process and the Charter was unveiled in No- vember 2009. Since then, the Charter has inspired community -based acts of com- passion all over the world. From Seattle to Karachi, Houston to Amsterdam, in schools, houses of worship, city governments, and among individuals everywhere, the message of the Charter is transforming lives.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT To: Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council Meeting: January 6, 2020 Subject: Acceptance of a 2020 Carilion Clinic Grant Award Background: Carilion Clinic is an academic medical center with a focus that is three -fold: patient care, research, and education. Each year Carilion Clinic awards grants to non - profit and government organizations that fund projects that address one or more priorities identified in the Roanoke Valley Community Health Assessment (CHA). The priorities identified in the 2018 Roanoke Valley CHA include access to mental health /behavioral services, poverty /low average household income, transportation, alcohol and drug use, and lack of health literacy and lack of knowledge of healthy behaviors. The City of Roanoke has been awarded a grant by Carilion Clinic to provide funding for a Financial Empowerment Center (FEC). The FEC is a project that the City is implementing in conjunction with the Cities for Financial Empowerment (CFE) Fund, Inc.; an organization with a mission to help improve the financial stability of low and moderate - income households around the country. The CFE Fund, Inc. provides funding to embed financial empowerment strategies into local government infrastructures. In practical terms, CFE Fund, Inc.'s goal is to make free, one -on -one professional financial counseling a standard public service provided by the participating municipality. Considerations: City Council action is needed to accept the Carilion Clinic Grant award and authorize the City Manager to execute a Memorandum of Understanding ( "MOU ") between Carilion Clinic and the City. A copy of the Grant Agreement MOU is attached to this letter. The grant is in the amount of $20,000 and will fund training for FEC financial counselors, marketing and community outreach events for the FEC, and translation services for FEC clients who require such services. Recommended Action: Accept the Grant as described above and authorize the City Manager to execute any required grant agreements, including the attached MOU, to be approved as to form by the City Attorney. Adopt the accompanying budget ordinance to establish the amount of $20,000 and appropriate $20,000 established in the Grant Fund by the Director of Finance. - r Robert S. Cowell, ,J r.

It is estimated that more than 8,000 households in the Roanoke Valley are unbanked. More than 1,500 accounts have been created since the program's inception, helping citizens move away from alternative lenders such as payday lenders, pawn shops, and automobile title loans, and into the conventional banking system. BORV also provides financial literacy courses open to the public.

In addition, funding of $150,000 will be provided to upgrade and replace the parking access, revenue and control system (PARCS) in the Center in the Square Garage which has reached the end of its useful life and is no longer supported by its manufacturer. Currently there is $1,596,000 of retained earnings available for appropriation in the Parking Fund for these purposes.

My commission expires: Notary Public SEAL 9 CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT To: Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council Meeting: January 6, 2020 Subject: Encroachment Request from Greater Roanoke Transit Company (GRTC) for a Bus Shelter in Right -of -Way located at the northeast corner of Peters Creek Road and Shenandoah Avenue Background: The Greater Roanoke Transit Company (GRTC) has requested an encroachment permit for a bus shelter to service the Creekside Center Shopping Center. Plans are to build a Shelter at the northeast corner of Peters Creek Road and Shenandoah Avenue. The shelter will encroach approximately 16 feet in length and 7 feet in width into the City Right -of -Way approximately 50 -55 feet south of a parcel owned by Food Lion LLC, bearing Official Tax Map No. 6030107, as shown on the attached drawing. The Creekside Shopping area is a very walkable neighborhood with sidewalks and tree lined streets. The need has been identified for a Bus shelter for patrons taking advantage of Valley Metro's Bus Service. The Creekside Shopping Center currently has no bus shelters within its geographic borders. This shelter will enhance transit service to the residents in the Creekside Shopping Center area, encourage a safer bus ride and increase ridership by providing comfort and protection from the elements, and creates a mobile neighborhood with an eye on visibility and growth. Recommended Action: Adopt the proposed Ordinance authorizing the encroachment of the new 16 ft. x 7 ft. Bus Shelter encroaching into the City Right -of -Way located at the northeast corner of Peters Creek Road and Shenandoah Avenue. All necessary documents required for this encroachment are to be approved as to form by the City Attorney. .e - ------- ----------------------- Robert S. Cowell, fir.
