Kendrick Noel C.Taylor Municipal Building President Elect 215 Church Avenue Roanoke,VA 24011 J. Ross Wimmer,CPA Treasurer Dear Mayor Lea, A.Sidney Barritt Ill, MD Secretary On behalf of the board of the Blue Ridge Land Conservancy, I'm writing to convey Colbert L. Boyd additional thoughts regarding the development of the parcels identified in the City of Eva Morgan Hartmann Roanoke's Evans Spring Draft Master Plan,recommended to City Council for adoption Alan R.McPherson Susan E.McSwain by the Roanoke Planning Commission on Monday,February 12, 2024. These comments Hunter W. Naff Janet Scheid complement and expand upon those sent by us to Executive Director of Community Ann Bondurant Trinkle Development and Placemaking Chris Chittum in November of 2023,and copied to ADVISORY COMMITTEE council and City Manager Bob Cowell(attached). Helen A. Burnett Ruth T. Dickerson Broaddus C. The Blue Ridge Land Conservancy is proposing to City Council that the Evans Fitzpatrick Spring Master Plan utilize the Lick Run Greenway Corridor as shown on page 20 William Hunley Lowell F.Inhorn,MD for conservation,public recreation,education and open space. Janet Scheid Fiona M.Tower The current plan views the Lick Run Greenway Corridor from a civil engineering STAFF David C. Perry perspective rather than exploring its potential benefits to the community. It calls for Executive Director utilizing the Lick Run Greenway Corridor for stormwater management and as an Emily R.H.Bender "environmental buffer."This shortchanges the potential for use of the property for Assistant Director purposes that would greatly enhance the surrounding community. Tina L. Badger Project Manager Conservation,public recreation and educational uses help ensure that these priority areas Kacie E.Shifflett are not seen as unusable or without value,to be filled with pollution from surrounding Stewardship Specialist commercial development such as plastic bags,plastic bottles,aluminum cans, styrofoam cups and containers,and gas and oil runoff from parking lots.

Rather, these land uses entail active management of this natural area,as well as proper stewardship and restoration to keep the waterway clean as it heads towards the Roanoke River. By managing this area as more than a stormwater management feature or vegetative buffer, schoolchildren from the nearby Roanoke Academy for Math and Science may use the natural area as an outdoor classroom. Residents can walk for exercise with their pets, or enjoy nature watching and other activities. The community may even partner with any future commercial development to schedule clean-up days with employees and other similar events that would provide a win for both the natural community and the public profile of these potential businesses. Please consider this important addition to the draft Evans Spring Master Plan as you move forward with deliberations regarding its adoption. If the Blue Ridge Land Conservancy can be of assistance in your deliberations, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Ross Wimmer,CPA Roanoke, VA 24011 Treasurer A.Sidney Barritt Ill, MD Dear Mr. Chittum, Secretary Colbert L.Boyd On behalf of the board of the Blue Ridge Land Conservancy, I'm writing to convey some Eva Morgan Hartmann thoughts regarding the development of the parcels identified in the City of Roanoke's Alan R. McPherson Susan E. McSwain Evans Spring Area Plan, adopted by City Council on April 15,2013. Hunter W. Naff Janet Scheid Ann Bondurant Trinkle As the Roanoke region's only nonprofit land conservation organization,we have partnered with the City of Roanoke on many occasions,whether it was helping secure ADVISORY COMMITTEE Helen A. Burnett land for the Lick Run Greenway more than 20 years ago,or holding conservation Ruth T. Dickerson easements on two of the gems in the city's magnificent park system,Carvins Cove Broaddus C. Fitzpatrick Natural Reserve and Mill Mountain Park. In 2008,we honored the City of Roanoke with William Hunley Lowell F.Inhorn,MD our highest award,the A. Victor Thomas Environmental Stewardship Award,for its Janet Scheid conservation efforts. Fiona M.Tower STAFF I've served as chair of the Mill Mountain Advisory Board,and over the years, our board David C. Perry Executive Director has included members of City Council and numerous civic and business leaders from the Emily R.H. Bender City of Roanoke. We enjoy our strong relationship with the city, and from to time will Assistant Director weigh in on various city issues that intersect with our mission of land conservation. Tina L. Badger Project Manager One such issue is the development of the Evans Spring area. Evans Spring is a unique Kacie E.Shifflett resource within the city.Although we do not want to stand in the way of sensible Stewardship Specialist development of the Evans Springs area,and while some of the parcels in the city's plan are more suitable for development than others,we believe that any development of the Evans Spring area should only be undertaken with careful consideration of several points. ceeuo# The Lemon House 1305 Maple Ave.SW, Roanoke,VA 24016 Phone(540)985-0000 Cie www.blueridgelandconservancy.org We protect the lands and waters you love,forever. First and foremost is the issue of water quality. Evans Spring is a natural freshwater spring that feeds a small pond which drains into Lick Run. Unfortunately, Lick Run does not enjoy a natural path to its confluence with Tinker Creek in Southeast Roanoke.Much of the stream is"darklighted"or buried underground, including its course through upper Washington Park. From there to its juncture with Tinker Creek, Lick Run is largely confined to artificial channels, such as those adjacent to the rear of the Berglund Center,or concrete ditches such as those found adjoining the former Norfolk Southern rail yards along Campbell Ave. and Norfolk Ave. Any development of the properties adjoining Evans Spring and the adjacent pond has the potential to further degrade Lick Run and reduce its effectiveness as a natural community. Additional development in the Evans Spring area would likely force more stormwater more quickly into Lick Run, leading to more pollution from the city entering the Roanoke River. This runs contrary to the city's goals of reducing polluted runoff into the Roanoke River and its tributaries,which are carried out by the city's Stormwater division. Another point to consider is wildlife habitat.As one of the larger areas of open space in the city,many of the Evans Spring parcels provide valuable habitat for trees and plants, aquatic wildlife,birds and other species. Indeed,the Lick Run Greenway is a favorite spot for Roanoke-area birders, and many of these avian species roost,feed and reproduce in the Evans Spring natural community. In the last 20 years, Roanoke has invested heavily in marketing its outdoor amenities to help drive economic growth in the city. Development of the Evans Spring area which may degrade the natural community runs counter to the countless person-hours and massive financial investment the city has made not only to brand itself as a green, outdoors-friendly city, but to actually create the infrastructure to support outdoors-friendly and active lifestyles. The future extension of Lick Run Greenway beyond the Valley View Mall area is already designated to cross through the Evans Spring area on the Roanoke Valley Greenway Commission's 2018 Greenway Plan Network Map. Development of the Evans Spring area may impact the future of this popular greenway,which provides not only recreation but a vital connection from northwest Roanoke and downtown to shopping opportunities in and around Valley View Mall. In a similar vein,the role of the Evans Spring area in mitigating the city's urban heat island issue cannot be understated. The city spends large amounts of time and money planting trees and trying to increase the city's percentage of land under tree canopy.Northwest Roanoke has the least amount of tree canopy coverage in the city,and is also most susceptible to the urban heat island effect in the summer. The urban heat island creates a significant health crisis for the elderly,young and those with health problems exacerbated by high summer temperatures. Data from the(now defunct)Greater Roanoke Valley Asthma and Air Quality Coalition showed that 18 percent of children in Roanoke have asthma. Tree cover plays an important role in reducing air pollution. Every measure should be taken to ensure that Roanoke does not thwart its own efforts to increase its tree canopy. Much has changed in Roanoke since the adoption of the Evans Spring Area Plan in 2013. There is much greater awareness among the citizens of the negative impacts of climate change, and much stronger interest in outdoor recreation and marketing the city as an outdoors destination. The city's Office of Sustainability has released its draft Climate Action Plan,which advocates for many climate goals and actions which are not consistent with developing the Evans Spring area. Please consider these points as you move forward with consultants and potential plans from property owners or developers regarding the Evans Spring area. If the Blue Ridge Land Conservancy can be of assistance in your deliberations, please do not hesitate to contact us. Sincerely, r G David C. Perry Executive Director cc: Mayor Sherman P.

They are mini disasters that not only claim the lives of the victims but devastate the families and the community at large. Because local circumstances deserve local solutions, efforts to improve survival must occur at the community level with a vision of ideally prepared communities. There is increasing awareness of geographic disparity in sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) outcomes. This should inspire community stakeholders and advocates to make a positive difference through action in their own communities. These actions should be based on the links in the cardiac arrest chain of survival, be supported by local leadership, guided by science, influenced by best practices and implemented with innovation to address local needs. All plans require sensibility and that the actions be pragmatic. Challenges in optimizing outcomes through effective community resuscitation are formidable and, by nature, iterative. The key to success is mobilizing community support, finding partners and champions, assessing needs and resources, and organizing and conducting assessments, all while prioritizing implementation, evaluation and sustainability. The consequences of well-integrated and well-delivered community-based strategies can be measured directly in the number of lives saved and celebrated by the individuals who live in the community. I 4 An Essential Read from the Resuscitation Academy This guide was developed by the Resuscitation Academy and is intended for EMS directors, medical directors, fire department chiefs, EMS service officers, EMS training officers and dispatch center directors. The Resuscitation Academy appreciates the importance of implementation and has developed this high-value asset to assist leaders in implementing community-based strategies.

Regretfully, the full lifesaving potential of an optimized system of care remains elusive in most communities, which results in striking disparities in cardiac arrest survival. Some systems of care report more than a 5-fold difference in survival depending upon the development of their system. For the suddenly collapsed victim of sudden cardiac arrest to survive, witnesses and initial responders must be ready, willing and able to take quick action within a comprehensive patient-centered system of care. Such systems must be able to rapidly coordinate, mobilize and integrate each aspect of resuscitative care while focusing on optimizing patient survival with good neurological function and return to pre-arrest condition. The Institute of Medicine (IOM) study and report, Strategies to Improve Cardiac Arrest Survival:A Time to Act, was sponsored by the American Heart Association; the American Red Cross; the American College of Cardiology; the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention; the National Institutes of Health, and the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs in 2015. Strategies to Improve Cardiac Arrest Survival: A Time to Act This report examines the complete system of response to cardiac arrest in the United States and identifies opportunities within existing and new treatments, strategies and research that promise to improve the survival and recovery of patients. The recommendations in Strategies to Improve Cardiac Arrest Survival: A Time to Act provide high-priority actions to advance the field. This report will help citizens, government agencies and private industry to improve health outcomes from sudden cardiac arrest across the United States. This report is rich in information, guidance and resources and most importantly includes a spotlight on strategies and the importance of action. https://www.nap.edu/catalog/23695/exploring-strateqies-to-improve-cardiac- arrest-survival-proceedings-of-a 6 2015 IOM Report Strategies to Improve Cardiac Arrest Survival: A Time to Act Recommendations 1. Establish a national cardiac arrest registry 2. Foster a culture of action through public awareness and training 3. Enhance the capabilities and performance of EMS systems 4. Set national accreditation standards related to cardiac arrest 5. Adopt continuous quality improvement programs 6. Accelerate research and translation of science for cardiac arrest 7. Accelerate research on the evaluation and adoption of therapies 8. Create a national cardiac arrest collaborative The above 8 IOM strategies are established at a national level. But how can local strategies support the recommendations made by the IOM? A coordinated, planned, structured, supported and sustainable implementation of existing and already proven strategies at the local level is needed. Below are 6 community strategies that can be implemented in any community today with existing resources to improve outcomes locally and support a national effort. SIX CORE COMMUNITY STRATEGIES TO SUPPORT IOM RECOMMENDATIONS 1. Strengthen local stakeholder collaboration 2. Encourage data collection, analysis and dissemination 3. Facilitate implementation of lifesaving strategies 4. Promote public education and training 5. Improve delivery of high-quality resuscitation and post-arrest care 6. Enhance the impact of cardiac arrest therapies 7 Translating the IOM Recommendations for Regional and Local Implementation The Citizen CPR Foundation believes it is essential that sudden cardiac arrest is recognized as a communal issue and that local resources can and should be leveraged to improve preparation, recognition, response and immediate interventions for sudden cardiac arrest by the citizens as well as the local system of care. Time to treatment is the truest enemy and there is a need for multi-agency collaboration at the national, and, even more critically, at the local level. We have the ability to improve systems to reduce the time between the onset of the arrest and the provision of lifesaving treatments. Shortening this time is one of the most effective ways to improve outcomes. Specific actions can be implemented immediately in every community to decrease time from detection to treatment of the suddenly collapsed victim. From the Resuscitation Academy mantra, "It's not complicated, but it's not easy." The science behind the steps to improve survival are not difficult to understand and are fairly straight-forward, however, change must start at the local level. It is the local medical employees, administrative team members, training leaders and operational personnel who are most accountable and can best decide how to bring about change. This guide will address and support a national effort and improvement of tactics for implementation in communities of any and all sizes using the 6 Core Communit Strate•ies based on the IOM Recommendations. • A Rhode Island I, HEART Safe aa:,ap w� Communityfi • W _ ae.v.c..t Ilt . • , {,. wry...+,? 8 Plan Nationally and Implement Locally It is important to understand that the very nature of cardiac arrest requires bystanders to be ready, willing and able to act in combination with care provided by our EMS, fire and first responder agencies. The most successful care must occur within a system that coordinates and integrates each facet of care into a choreographed group effort, which focuses on neurologically intact survival. The Citizen CPR Foundation believes organized community efforts that prepare the lay public to provide bystander-initiated CPR and rapid AVO N INCORPORATED 1830 defibrillation offer the best opportunity for successful resuscitation in the initial minutes after cardiac arrest. The optimal strategy is one that is localized and TOWN. LINE actively engages a community at all levels. • HEART Safe There are numerous opportunities for oa :`� t. improvement that are rooted in engaging and the centralized collection '` educating the public,and distribution of cardiac arrest related data, the Community use of that data in quality improvement on a local, regional and national level, the provision of high-quality care by emergency medical services and our healthcare systems, and improved stakeholder collaboration. 9 Collaboration is Key to Success Collaboration can be defined as the action of working with someone or a group of individuals to produce or create something, in this case a local system designed to improve cardiac arrest outcomes. v-X .._t-\--Th e;'-' (Ifqn\* .,,.., ,• � , 1171 tiEtP!, 0 IliyMptir\-4.;75sTh " �— 0 'may 1 al 11.1.11 .-.=-•"--'''-7-.--'''."'- a },-otwroiorrS -X1la/ l %"Pit '-� a ' IN fir "' .4 1110 ; r,,T A collaborative multi-agency partnership promotes and provides for the sharing of skills, knowledge, expertise and resources between all parties. Progress will not be possible in the absence of multi-agency collaboration, particularly at the local level. Group efforts involving individuals, businesses, public officials and emergency responder agencies can establish a cardiac arrest response system to make the difference between life and death. 10 An Ideal Cardiac Arrest Prepared Community What is an "ideal community"? Because the vast majority of sudden cardiac arrests occur in the community, the community itself represents the ultimate coronary care unit. We must develop a local system based on science and effective implementation, transforming bystanders into "trystanders". Y% z ®- N- li /# ..a _-__- —4— i a i The HEARTSafe Community concept presents a blueprint for communities that supports the national recommendations made by the IOM. This community-based concept incorporates 6 strategies and 13 elements to provide structure, objectives and guidance for improving cardiac arrest survival in the community. It encourages communities to initiate strategies and sustain efforts aimed at improving survival. Through implementation, individual communities can develop and establish lifesaving networks that focus on coordinating and optimizing local resources to prevent sudden cardiac arrest from becoming sudden cardiac death.

Things that get measured improve. Measuring and reporting continuous improvement metrics demonstrates your work as essential and validates the campaign. In addition, when people know that you're measuring results and associating them with improvement, there is an increased sense of accountability that contributes to engagement and success. This is especially true when the metrics are visible. MEASURING 1 2 1 +I 5 6 T 8 9 10 11 c . • PERFORMANCE � When starting your campaign, you should measure your system's current capabilities. This will involve interaction and engagement of individuals and agencies. These engagements should not be limited to the collection of information but also an opportunity for collaboration and involvement with your community team. The Resuscitation Academy offers a 5-step assessment to measure your system's performance, which will provide additional and valuable insight. It also provides a formal report that can be used in garnering further support for your efforts. Resuscitation Academy Assessment https://assessment.resuscitationacademy.orq/ The Citizen CPR Foundation has developed a Self-Assessment and Project Progression Tracking and Scoresheet. Use of this Tracking and Scoresheet will be helpful in performing a baseline assessment as well as project tracking, measurement and quality improvement. CCPRF Self-Assessment and Project Tracking Tool https://citizencpr.orq/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/Self-Assessment-and- Project-Tracking.pdf 14 In Search of the Secret Sauce Regretfully, there is no "secret sauce" or single intervention that will by itself magically improve survival rates in our communities. -044.)131 `, However, there is a recipe for success that is based on available science, best practices and emerging innovations. The Utstein Formula for Survival is widely recognized as a way of predicting survival from sudden cardiac arrest. The model employs three elements in hypothesizing potential survival rates: Medical Science, Educational Efficiency and Local Implementation. Medical x Educational X Local _ Survival Science Efficiency Implementation The Citizen CPR Foundation HEARTSAFE concept focuses on community-wide interventions to effectively increase survival and improve outcomes from sudden cardiac arrest by leveraging current science and treatment recommendations, education and local implementation. Communities must be recognized as "ultimate coronary care units" in order to effectively increase survival and improve outcomes from sudden death. Community- wide interventions are critical aspects of any effort to reduce death and disability from cardiac arrest. The optimal strategy is one that leverages the 3 Utstein elements and actively engages a community at all levels. 15 Guiding, Empowering and Enabling Better Outcomes: Combining Strategy with Tactics and Logistics "All men can see the tactics whereby I conquer, but what none can see is the strategy out of which victory is evolved." The Art of War, Sun Tzu Sun Tzu illustrates that while tactics are more concrete and easier to see, an overarching strategy is equally important. The approach should not be strategy vs. tactics, but strategy and tactics. Think of these two techniques as two different sides of the same coin—both are necessary to achieve your lifesaving goals. If your project relies solely on strategy, success is unlikely since tactics are the concrete actions that need to occur. When a team only uses strategy, the only thing that they'll be doing is planning to achieve goals instead of doing the work that needs to be done to actually achieve them. On the other hand, you can't achieve your program goals on tactics alone. Tactics without strategy quickly turn into aimless work. When this is the case, arbitrary actions are being taken without a strategic objective in place. A good strategy incorporates data-informed direction and clearly defined goals. Good tactics are short term steps that are clearly tied to strategy, are actionable and time bound. As part of the Citizen CPR Foundation's efforts to improve survival, a group of subject matter experts convened to create a program to support improved outcomes. This resulted in the creation of 13 tactical elements to improve preparedness, recognition, response, care and outcomes. 16 Strategic and Tactical Elements Element 1: Establishing a High-Performance Lead Agency and Community Team Sudden cardiac arrest is a communal problem and local issues demand local solutions. As such, a lead agency (e.g., police, fire, EMS provider, hospital or municipal office) is necessary for overseeing and coordinating localized HEARTSafe efforts. The lead agency takes ownership of the project and enlists help and representation from multiple agencies and individuals as well as the community at large. Most often, a public safety agency or healthcare institution will assume the role of a lead agency and have extensive representation from the community at large. t „ i • RECOMMENDED LINKS Challenges in Implementation, Accountability and Leadership in Out of Hospital Cardiac Arrest David Hiltz leads a discussion with Dr. Mickey Eisenberg and Ann Doll around the challenges many communities face in regard to saving more lives from Sudden Cardiac Arrest. https://youtu.be/ dnk-FEfe9q Challenging Sudden Death: Resuscitation Leadership Panel for the EMS Leadership Summit Robbie MacCue with the EMS Leadership Summit leads a discussion with Tom Rea, MD and Ann Doll from the Resuscitation Academy, and Jim Suozzi, DO, and David Hiltz from the Citizen CPR Foundation around the importance of strong leadership in efforts to save more lives from cardiac arrest. https://youtu.be/RtIOZ8xA7Uo 17 THE TOP FIVE STRATEGIES FOR EFFECTIVE COMMITTEES This article by TripBuilder Media offers insights and tips for managing committees and groups of individuals as you work towards your goals.

With this in mind, the Citizen CPR Foundation, with vast support from partner organizations, calls for the community to develop a plan for the collection and analysis of cardiac arrest data. Enrollment and participation in the Cardiac Arrest Registry to Enhance Survival (CARES) is strongly and highly recommended. . . .:.. _ • * (� 1�` lot • CARES helps communities measure performance and identify how to improve cardiac arrest survival rates.

Ideally, our entire citizenry is adept at recognizing cardiac arrest, has some form of hands-on experience and is willing to perform CPR when called upon. Recognizing the importance of bystander action, this element calls for a minimum of 15% of the community population to receive some form of hands-on CPR training on an annual basis. All forms of training are acceptable, including hands-only CPR and certification at any level from any nationally recognized organization. ..-Le, 1 - / 4Lab .

Cardiac arrest should be suspected in any person that collapses suddenly and is unresponsive. All potential responders to a collapsed person should be trained in the recognition of sudden cardiac arrest (SCA), cardiopulmonary resuscitation and use of an automated external defibrillator (AED). AEDs should be accessible on-site to the victim location and with a response time to first compression and shock of less than three (3) minutes.

AED registries serve as the backbone of many novel solutions developed to facilitate rapid identification of the nearest resuscitation-ready AED in an emergency. AED registries, holding information on location and accessibility, may facilitate AED retrieval by enabling rapid identification of the nearest device. Integration of this data with the 911 system is essential.

High-performance resuscitation and improved outcomes are highly dependent on a foundation of high-performance CPR by prehospital care providers. Advanced cardiac life support must be positioned in a way that does not get in the way of, but instead enables high-quality CPR. The approach requires a teamwork approach by EMS systems, agencies and providers alike. Element 11 calls for Emergency Medical Services (EMS) providers to practice "high-performance" CPR and possess supportive protocols, technology and equipment for resuscitation and effective post-resuscitation care. Thy_Evolution of Quality CPR What Exactly IS High-Performance,A ay? ' �, �_ . kli` alP 4 'a=. # High-performance CPR can boost survival outcomes significantly by ensuring that victims receive enough blood to their heart and brain. High-performance or high-quality CPR is an expectation for all those who are responsible for the delivery of professional resuscitation.

Preventive healthcare has a major role in the fight against cardiovascular diseases. The adage "an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure" is reflected in element 13. This element addresses the need for the community to establish primary and secondary public health measures that support cardiovascular wellness, such as education, prevention, and systems of care for stroke and myocardial infarction. Primary prevention refers to the steps taken by an individual to prevent the onset of the disease. This is achieved by maintaining a healthy lifestyle choice, to include diet and exercise. Secondary prevention focuses on reducing the impact of the disease with early diagnosis prior to any critical and permanent damage. This facilitates avoiding life threatening situations and long-term impairments from a disease. • Disease prevention • Early identification and treatment to delay R# tr disease progression • Create a safety net for those who need rescue. • f I, d I 0 RECOMMENDED LINKS Primary and Secondary Prevention, Disparities in Cardiovascular Health and a Vision for the Future A Citizen CPR Foundation Vodcast Stacey Rosen, MD and Pavitra Kotini-Shah, MD, join David Hiltz for a discussion around the disparities in prevention of cardiovascular health and what changes communities can make. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CrgANoRulkE 40 Early Heart Attack Care Education American College of Cardiology The primary goal of Early Heart Attack Care is to promote public awareness that heart attacks have "beginnings" that can occur weeks before the actual attack.

In that spirit, we recommend collecting a core team early in your campaign. Individual advocates will find that progress will be difficult in the absence of the support of a team and will likely be unsustainable. ar mramil grip *. ariorwrw o _ _ ell k 's . When assembling your team, it makes sense to build a diverse group of dedicated individuals who accurately reflect the make-up of your community. Don't limit yourselves to a team comprised of only healthcare providers. Ultimately, your success will require talents from a variety of leaders and influencers in your community. Once you have your core team assembled, the next step is to perform an inventory or assessment of your community. Evaluate your community based on the 13 elements. What are you doing well? What areas need improvement? Where is there an absence of supporting data? Your assessment will provide you with the information you will need in the next steps. In addition, this assessment often yields opportunities for dialog between important stakeholders in your community. Once your core team has completed the preliminary assessment of your community, you will have identified areas where you have gaps or unanswered questions. These gaps and unanswered questions are best used to form the basis of your strategies and plans. Your strategies, tactics and goals should be well defined and achievable. You can also use the 13 elements to facilitate the conversation around creating your strategies, tactics and goals 42 With your strategies, tactics and goals now defined, put them into motion. ACTION CHANGES THINGS! Be steadfast in your desire for progress and change, but realistic in setting timelines for achievement of goals. Depending on your assessment and plans, some goals may be short term while others may take longer to achieve. Take small incremental steps wherever and whenever appropriate. Quick Start Guide to Implementation 1 . Become familiar with the HEARTSafe concept, strategies and tactics by watching the orientation video and review of the 13 elements (action tactics) outlined in the SELF-ASSESSMENT AND PROJECT PROGRESSION TRACKING AND SCORESHEET. 2. Identify a lead agency and begin forming the membership for your task force. Start with core team members and recruit others on an as needed and ongoing basis. 3. Establish the need, and achieve buy-in, for a culture of action related to sudden cardiac arrest through education aimed at community and other leaders. 4. Conduct a baseline assessment in your community and document your findings. 5. Establish measurable priority actions and tactics, based on data collected during your baseline assessment. 6. Assign work to responsible teams with specific goals and suggested timelines for implementation. 7. Meet regularly to assess measured progress and potential revision of actions and tactics. Next steps in your iterative process will be to assess the effect of your intervention or interventions. Reassess your current state regarding the 13 elements. Where were you able to observe success? What areas need additional improvement? Do any of your strategies and tactics require re-tooling? 43 Additional work is likely needed. Furthermore, you may have identified new supporters, opportunities and strengths in your community and system. This assessment, plan, intervene and re-assess cycle may need to be repeated to get you and your community to defined goals. Use the Tracking and Scoresheet to perform a baseline assessment as well as serve as your essential tool in the iterative process of implementation and ongoing evaluation. Those communities that achieve a 5.0 score in all 13 elements can apply for the designation as a HEARTSafe Community by the Citizen CPR Foundation. 44 Become HEARTSafe Designated by the Citizen CPR Foundation The application process begins with an online submission on the Citizen CPR Foundation website. Applicants will need to complete the application and upload supporting documentation such as rosters and related files. Once an application has been completed and submitted, the Citizen CPR Foundation is automatically notified. After a brief review of the application, it is forwarded to 3 Program Advisory Committee members for an objective review. The reviewers will use the CCPRF Self-Assessment and Project Tracking Tool to assess your work and accomplishments. Following the review by the Program Advisory Committee members, your community will be identified as "ready for designation" or "not yet ready for designation." Those receiving approval will be notified by email and provided with a certificate suitable for framing, a press kit and information relating to obtaining traffic-grade HEARTSafe signs to be posted at key entry points to the community. If an application review results in a "not yet ready for designation," the applicant will be notified by email and provided with specific areas requiring additional work and/or documentation. The CCPRF offers consultation and peer-to-peer coaching for any community that is invested in improving outcomes. When submitting your application, it is your opportunity to brag about your achievements. Be sure to provide as much supporting documentation as possible. By doing so, the review process can be as efficient as possible. Additionally, in the event that more work is needed, the Foundation will be in a position to provide meaningful guidance to you and your community. Ready for designation? 45 Frequently Asked Questions What is HEARTSafe? HEARTSafe is a concept that incorporates science and treatment recommendations, as well as innovative best practices in implementation that are intended to help more people survive after sudden out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. When someone's heart suddenly stops, they will generally not survive unless a number of interventions take place immediately, including CPR and defibrillation. In order to facilitate this process, a strong system must be established to ensure the rapid execution of each step. The HEARTSafe Community concept works by creating tactics that support the "cardiac chain of survival" and encouraging communities to work toward them. What service, business, or organization runs HEARTSafe? The HEARTSafe Community initiative is led by the Citizen CPR Foundation with support from numerous partners and similarly aligned organizations. Is the HEARTSafe concept evidence-based? No studies have specifically attempted to demonstrate improved survival after instituting an explicit HEARTSafe program in a community. The general model of community-level efforts to strengthen the chain of survival has been successful and is supported by existing evidence and treatment recommendations.

ATTEST: City Clerk. ROANOKE CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT To: Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council Meeting: February 20, 2024 Subject: Acceptance of a National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) Grants for Art Projects (GAP) Award. Background: In FY23, the City used National Endowment for the Arts and City of Roanoke funds to advance community goals, seeding artist-led projects and placing artists alongside city projects advancing community goals. Two affiliated efforts included the Daisy Art Parade held April 15, 2023, and the Neighborhood Centers Model Development Plan, adopted by Council in December 2022. To advance the two projects, the City applied for and received $80,000 from the National Endowment for the Arts through a Grant for Art Projects Grant. The intention is to engage artists to draw upon the community energy of the Daisy Art Parade model to activate neighborhood centers for early-stage development of civic participation and attraction of additional private investment. Considerations: The funding recommendation by staff for the project totals $160,000. The NEA grant will support the project in the amount of$80,000. The grant requires a one-to-one match and payments will be made on a reimbursable basis. Matching funds in the amount of$80,000 will come from the city's Emerging Neighborhoods funding. The funds for this project will be used to support the 2024 and 2025 Daisy Art Parades and to hire artists to engage with City staff, stakeholders, property owners and residents in developing Daisy Art Activations: early-stage, art-based projects, events, investments, workshops, and conversations that help capture and communicate the potential of neighborhood center investment. The expense breakdown is as follows: Artist Stipends $120,000 Neighborhood Projects $ 20,000 Daisy Art Parade Production $ 20,000 Recommended Action: Accept the NEA Grants for Arts Projects award #1919450-62 in the amount of$80,000. Authorize the City Manager to execute any forms required by the NEA in order to accept these funds, such documents to be approved by the City Attorney. Authorize the City Manager to provide any additional information, execute such other documents, and to take any necessary actions to obtain, accept, receive, implement, use, and administer the above Grant.

ATTEST: C Lait( 0 City Clerk. ROANOKE CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT To: Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council Meeting: February 20, 2024 Subject: Adoption of "Roanoke Virginia Strategic Plan" 2024 - 2025. Background: In these unprecedented times, strategic thinking focused on community vision, strategies, and actions is more necessary than ever to progress toward that community vision. Beginning in 2019, the Council built upon its legacy of strategic thinking through the adoption of the "Roanoke Virginia Strategic Plan 2019" (Plan), the first formal strategic plan formulated for the City. This Plan, along with the City's Comprehensive Plan, which represents how the City will physically change over time, provides a foundation upon which to build more detailed plans, strategies and actions. A year of continued and unprecedented change has occurred since the last revision of the plan in 2023. The process used in the development of this Plan started with a Council strategic planning retreat held in the fall of 2023 which included a review of current strategic items, overviews of governance in Virginia, the Council Manager form of government, economic and social characteristics of Roanoke, and public service delivery in Roanoke. This retreat included a robust discussion of current conditions, projected trends and the goals for the future of the City. An affirmation of the community vision and an outline of the strategies were the principal products resulting from the retreat. A draft of the plan was discussed with the Council at their annual budget planning retreat held in the autumn. A final draft version was presented to the Council at the January 16 meeting. The Council will review the Plan on an annual basis, making adjustments as necessary, following a process similar to that used in the creation of this plan. Additionally, City Management will provide the Council with regular progress reports on the Plan and a performance measure report annually. Considerations: The Plan clearly states the community vision and identifies seven strategic areas of importance which are central to the accomplishment of that vision: Education, Community Safety, Human Services, Infrastructure, Good Government, Livability, and Economy. For each strategic area, the plan identifies actions and initiatives to be taken to achieve the desired results, and identifies various statistical and data-driven indicators which will help measure the extent of those results. Finally, the Plan also outlines the roles and responsibilities of the City administration to respond to each of the strategic areas to develop and administer programs and deliver services aligned with certain core values, organizational framework, and specific strategies. Recommended Action: Approve a Resolution adopting the "Roanoke Virginia Strategic Plan 2024-2025." Bob Cowell, City Manager Distribution: Council Appointed Officers W.

Pursuant to the provisions of Section 12 of the City Charter, the second reading of this Ordinance by title is hereby dispensed with. ATTEST: 0..eat; vnl-e-cgt: City Clerk. ROANOKE CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT To: Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council Meeting: February 20, 2024 Subject: Authorization of the Acquisition of Real Property for three parcels known as 0 Bullitt Avenue, S. E. Background: The following parcels of privately owned real property are owned by Beneche Germilus and situated adjacent to Bullitt Avenue, S.E., and Jamison Avenue, S.E.: a. Official Tax Map No. 4013515, containing 1,220 square feet, more or less, known as Lot 16 and Block 14, Section 2, Official Survey SE, 0 Bullitt Avenue, S.E., Roanoke, Virginia; b. Official Tax Map No. 4013521, containing 972 square feet, more or less, known as Part of Lot 15 and Part of Alley, Block 14, Section 2, Official Survey S.E., 0 Bullitt Avenue, S.E., Roanoke, Virginia; and c. Official Tax Map No. 4013516, containing 1,220 square feet, more or less, known as Part of Lot 17 and Part of Alley Block 14, Section 2, 0 Bullitt Avenue, S.E., Roanoke, Virginia, (collectively, the "Property"). The Property is divided by Bullitt Avenue and Jamison Avenue which runs through the middle of the Property. One portion of the Property is adjacent to Jamison Avenue and situated on a steep slope, and the other portion of the Property is in the middle of the road between Jamison Avenue and Bullitt Avenue. The Property is unbuildable due to its size, location, and topography. Trespassers frequent the Property, which becomes routinely littered with trash and other debris posing a threat to the public health, safety, and welfare. The City regularly incurs funds to remove litter and solid waste from the Property. In addition to the nuisance abatement costs incurred by the City, payment of the real estate taxes assessed against the Property remain delinquent and currently total over $6,000. Because the Property is privately owned, the City is limited in the actions it can take to secure the Property and prevent further littering. In order to collect the delinquent real estate taxes and nuisance abatement costs assessed against the Property owed the City of Roanoke, City staff initiated legal proceeding in state court pursuant to Section 58.1-3970.1, Code of Virginia to acquire the Property for such purposes in satisfaction of such taxes and costs. By Order entered February 7, 2024, the Court appointed David L. Collins, Special Commissioner, to deed the Property directly to the City of Roanoke on behalf of Beneche Germilus in lieu of tax sale of the Property at public auction. Considerations: City staff recommends acquisition of the Property from the Special Commissioner. Acquisition of the Property is in the best interests of the City and its citizens, as ownership of the Property will allow the City to take greater actions to secure the Property in the interests of public health and safety. Pursuant to the state enabling legislation that allows acquisition of the Property in this manner, if the City were ever to sell the Property for an amount in excess of the delinquent taxes, such surplusage is required to be refunded to Beneche Germilus, or his heirs. Recommended Action: For the foregoing reasons I recommend City Council adopt the attached ordinance, authorizing the City Manager to execute a deed accepting title to the Property from the Special Commissioner on behalf of the City of Roanoke, in satisfaction of the delinquent taxes and nuisance abatement costs assessed against the Property owed the City of Roanoke by Beneche Germilus. All documents shall be approved as to form by the City Attorney. / - Timothy Spencer, City Attorney Distribution: Robert S. Cowell, Jr, City Manager W.

Listen to our roots and honor those who planted the seeds. Shield it from the harsh winds of divide. Plant the milkweed next to the bearded iris. Our differences will only make us stronger. Let us pollinate our city with love. Cover it with grass clippings and leaves. Make it livable for the Eastern swallowtails and black bumblebees. This is all of our homes. Let us drench our city with hope. So, when there are seasons of drought, our spirits will not sag, but stand tall with the promise of rain. Let us fertilize our city with compassion, so the soil remains rich and budding with life. Let us prune our beliefs so new ideas can grow, and watch as our future unfurls before us like flower petals. Our children will harvest the fruit we've grown, save the seeds, and build their own gardens, lush with possibilities. 2024 Roanoke Youth Poet Laureate ELANI SPENCER Feburary 20, 2024 Inaugural Poem roanokearts.org/ypl Clitm 4041° Are AI 411-4P' 0 j1 fi , 11111 \\ `` i/Il� Di 0 Gr---` X-- ..1>>2,- 2 ``v E l w'f4t ,� � tIfre,,,k„ i 0 t, x Ab 17 •sai 111 .11111.11° 0 WWI" 1 C4 IP ...• ^,.. .,..\ , ,,,,, ILINF!•••1101 ' ' /".'""..".\, "V -.••• ....-4 7J 1........".

The facility was closed in the late 1950s when its operations were combined with the company's plant in Front Royal, Virginia. The Viscose property was bought by a group that operated the facility as an industrial park with over 40 tenants leasing 1 .1 million square feet of space. The original property has been subdivided into multiple parcels over time. Six of the parcels (hereafter, the property) were acquired or placed under contract in 2023 for a redevelopment into a mixed-use urban center. The property is zoned I-1 , Light Industrial District, and the mixture of uses, including residential, commercial, and industrial uses, in an urban building form that the applicant desires, is not permitted in the I-1 District. Therefore, the applicant seeks to rezone to D, Downtown District, with a condition. Proposed Use/Development: The applicants propose to rezone the property to D District, with a condition, to enable the redevelopment of the former industrial property into a mixed-use development including residential, commercial, and industrial uses. Many of the existing industrial buildings are historic. The property is proposed to be redeveloped over decades with the first phase of redevelopment including a new 260-unit apartment complex, 85-unit adaptive reuse project, and other mixed- uses. Additional traffic generated by the redevelopment will be addressed with a traffic impact analysis based on the overall development within the area transportation network to promote positive user experience and development, allow for staged transportation improvements proportional to the development holistically, and alleviate the burden of transportation improvements on any single portion of the development. Proffered Condition Requested to be Adopted: The applicant has requested the following proffered condition be adopted as they pertain to Official Tax Nos. 41 70401 , 4170101 , 4170104, 4250301 , 4250303, and 4250305: A traffic impact analysis will be provided in a form and scope satisfactory to the City of Roanoke's Transportation Division before submittal of development plans to the City of Roanoke related to the property. The Traffic Engineer preparing the analysis shall meet with the City Transportation Division staff prior to work to determine the scope of the analysis, which will be based on the extent and type of development for the full project build-out and the City's Complete Streets Policy. The ' complete analysis must be approved by the City Transportation Division prior to submittal of any development plans. 3 Considerations: Compatibility with Surrounding Land Uses: The property has been used for a large industrial complex for decades and is located along a 9"h Street in an area separated from the surrounding community by railroad and topography to the north and the Roanoke River to the south. Zoning District Land Use North I-1 , Light Industrial with, Railroad; Manufacturing: ROS, Recreation and Open Space, chemical, refining or processing, CN, Commercial-Neighborhood, not otherwise listed; Warehouse; and RM-1 , Residential Mixed Outdoor storage with Density beyond Park, Retail Sales Establishment, and vacant properties and Single- family detached dwellings beyond South I-1 , Light Industrial with, ROS, Recreation and Open Space greenway tbeyond Roanokeh River and East I l , Light Industrial, and general or ROS, Recreation and Open Spacetrade; vacant; with special Roanoke River West 11 , Light Industrial, and and greenway beyond Vacant ROS, Recreation and Open Space The future land use plan from the City Plan 2040 designates this area for industrial use. Applicability/Appropriateness of Proposed Zoning District: The purpose of the Downtown District is to permit a wide variety of uses and relatively intense development in the downtown, consistent with historic development patterns, in a manner that protects and enhances the business and cultural center of the City and region. Toward that end, the Downtown District is intended to accomplish the following: (1) Facilitate pedestrian ways and create a convenient and harmonious development of buildings, streets, and open space; (2) Protect and enhance the public interest in downtown as a source of economic vitality, the retention and creation of jobs, and tax revenue; (3) Protect existing investment in downtown, to protect against the demolition of downtown's historic buildings, to promote activity on public streets, and to protect amenities provided through public investment; and 4 (4) Provide for a mix of high density residential, commercial, retail, government services, entertainment and cultural facilities, and live/work space. The topography and physical development of the area physically separates this property from the majority of 9th Street to the north as it sits in the bottom area below the residential properties to the north and the Roanoke River to the south. While D District is an unusual zoning district outside of the traditional downtown area, the uses and development forms allowed are the only current zoning district type that allows a broad high-density mixture of uses with active civic spaces and pedestrian friendly building form. The future development of the property is also subject to dimensional and development standards of the ordinance. The property is also located within the F, Floodplain Overlay District, and RCC, River and Creek Corridors Overlay District. As such, any development of the property must meet the floodplain management and river and creek overlay standards of those districts. Availability of Other Property: The proposed development is to be a redevelopment of a large existing industrial area to enable the continued productive use of the property. As such, there is no other property immediately adjacent, other than the one in the rezoning request, which is available, similarly situated, and zoned to allow this type of development. Consistency with Comprehensive Plan: City Plan 2040, Morningside/Kenwood/Riverdale Neighborhood Plan, and the City- Wide Brownfield Redevelopment Plan encourage the redevelopment of properties within the underutilized industrial areas throughout the City. This area is comprised of industrial, commercial, and vacant properties, many of which are within the floodplain.

Comments on Application: Planning Commission Work Session: Community outreach efforts, including a planned community meeting, the proposed uses, development form, and need for a traffic impact analysis on the overall development were discussed at the Planning Commission work session. 2 Morningside/Kenwood/Riverdale Neighborhood Plan, City of Roanoke, 2003 3 City-Wide Brownfield Redevelopment Plan 6 Interdepartmental Comments: General comments were provided from the Western Virginia Water Authority, Fire department, Transportation, and the Planning Building and Development department related to water and sewer availability, fire code standards, the transportation network, building and zoning subdivision requirements, and the permitting process. Public Comments: No comments received. • Public Hearing: No comments received. Conclusions and Recommendations: The principal consideration is whether the proposed rezoning is consistent with City Plan 2040, Morningside/Kenwood/Riverdale Neighborhood Plan, and City- Wide Brownfield Redevelopment Plan. As previously noted, the property is part of an industrial, commercial, and vacant property area that has been purposed for redevelopment for many years. The rezoning to D, Downtown District, with a condition will allow the redevelopment from industrial to a mixture of uses, including residential, commercial, and industrial uses. The proposed uses and form are appropriate for this transitional area as it redevelops to a mixed-use center to the south of the village center along 9th and north of the Roanoke River. The rezoning to D District is appropriate and in keeping with the overall goals of these plans.

Cooper Youell, IV is Authorized Agent for the Owners and the Applicant. {11587/13/00193096.D0CX;1} Zoning Amendment Application—Amended Application No. 1 Narrative a. Description of proposed use and development of the property; Riverdale is a once-in-a-century,timely, high-quality,transformational project. The"dream come true"public/private redevelopment opportunity in one of the best locations in the city. It has a great history, and is possibly the largest collection of unrehabilitated historic buildings in the city. This area is being paired with the former AEP property to encompass over 120 acres. Given the size and scope of the project, uses will be mixed and be introduced over multiple phases. The initial phase will include a new construction 260-unit apartment complex, 85-unit adaptive reuse project, and multiple mixed uses as they are committed. b. Justification for the change; Riverdale is a unique segregated neighborhood that will require substantial use flexibility to allow for future development. c. Effect of the proposed amendment on the surrounding neighborhood (e.g. traffic generation); As Riverdale is largely segregated by the Roanoke River, railway, and topography; minimal effect on the surrounding neighborhood will be realized. As proffered, we are proposing that traffic impact analysis be completed during the site plan review process as permitting is obtained. d. Availability of other similarly zoned properties in the general area and in the City; and As this is a unique location and property,there are not similarly zoned properties nearby. It is important to note that this method has been used in The Bridges development to allow for flexibility of development uses. 1 e. Relationship of the proposed amendment to the City's Comprehensive Plan and the applicable Neighborhood Plan. 4 The comprehensive plan has not been updated to reflect this dynamic and unique project to date. {11587/13/00193099.DOCX;1 Zoning Amendment Application -Amended Application No. 1 Proffered Condition A traffic impact analysis will be provided in a form and scope satisfactory to the City of Roanoke's Transportation Division before submittal of development plans to the City of Roanoke related to the property.

When or if the properties are developed, the plan provides a guide for development that balances interests of environmental conservation, recreational access, economic development, residential development, and transportation access. The Evans Spring Master Plan is an incremental step in the careful and responsible consideration of development of this important assembly of land. Should a developer seek rezoning, this plan should guide and inform a specific, dimensioned plan by a developer that substantially conforms to the land uses, building scales, street patterns, and preserved areas shown in the master plan. Such a plan should be incorporated as a planned unit development plan and become a binding condition on the development of the land. Background: The Evans Spring Planning Area is approximately 1 50 acres of land along the southern side of Interstate 581 . The Melrose-Rugby and Fairland neighborhoods border the property to the south and west. With the exception of right-of-way and a utility lot containing a stormwater detention basin, the properties are privately owned. In 201 1 , as planning work began to complete the Valley View interchange, there was no definitive land use plan in place for the Evans Spring properties. City planners began an extensive neighborhood engagement and planning process that resulted in the Evans Spring Area Plan. The plan, adopted by City Council in 2013, provides a framework for expectations for how development should occur. It recommended development of a mixed-use neighborhood within the context of its adjoining neighborhoods, a regional shopping center, and an interstate highway frontage. The plan did not contemplate any scenario for permanent open space conservation or establishment of new parkland, nor have any Parks and Recreation Master Plans made such recommendations. The 2013 plan acknowledged that a more detailed master plan would be required before rezoning the land. In June of 2022, the City of Roanoke initiated another planning process with the goal of developing such a master plan. City Council approved a partnership agreement with the property owners and the Economic Development Authority to hire a professional consultant to look at the development potential while engaging adjacent neighborhoods and the surrounding community. The objective was to create a plan that is both economically feasible and has a positive relationship with the adjacent neighborhoods. Land Planning and Design Associates (LPDA) of Charlottesville provided a proposal with a strong community engagement program and the City awarded it the planning contract. LPDA assembled a team that included recognized experts in community engagement, land planning, stormwater management, transportation, and economic development. It is important to acknowledge the context under which the master planning process was initiated. City Council adopted the Evans Spring Area Plan as a policy document in 2013. That plan called for responsible commercial and residential development. Permanent conservation or establishment of a park has never been identified as a viable option by planning staff, City administration, or City Council. The Parks and Recreation Master Plan, also adopted (2019) as a component of the comprehensive plan, contains no recommendation for use of the properties for a park or recreational use. Given this context of adopted planning policy, a "no development" option has never been under consideration as part of this planning process. The consulting team briefed City Council in summer 2023 on its progress. In November 2023, LPDA presented its recommendations to staff and City Council in a briefing. With submittal of a published Evans Spring Master Plan document in January 2024, the team completed its work and staff then asked the Planning Commission to initiate the public hearing and plan adoption process. Master Plan Summary Site Analysis The report indicates that about 112 acres of the site are suitable for development, with areas excluded due to floodplain, floodway, and steeper slopes. Approximately 30% of the acreage is within the floodplain. While under the current zoning and applicable development regulations, the 100-year floodplain can be developed with elevated or floodproofed buildings, the master plan proposes no buildings or parking in the 100-year floodplain. Floodplain areas are indicated as preserved or established riparian buffer areas. (Sec.4, p. 8). 2 Transportation The consulting team studied the traffic impact of a new interchange connection that would connect into the neighborhood without new development, so the baseline impact of development and the impact of the interchange could be assessed more or less separately. The "Full Interchange" projection would increase traffic counts by about 10,000 trips per day at Andrews Road and 19`h Street (p. 9) even with no development of the Evans Spring properties. This conclusion was significant because it led to the recommendation that there be no vehicular connection between the interchange and the neighborhood. Stormwater management Professional civil engineers on the planning team studied existing stormwater conditions (p. 10). The Evans Spring properties are a relatively small part of a 3,747-acre watershed. Lick Run, which is a significant feature of the site, is an unstable stream in poor condition. The study provides many recommendations for a stormwater management approach, some of which are already mandated by City code. Significantly, the plan recommends a stream restoration project coordinated as part of the development process. In addition to the consulting team's work, professional civil engineers in Roanoke's Stormwater Division assessed the impact of potential development and concluded that stormwater can be managed responsibly and effectively with minimal downstream impact. Utilities Water, sewer, and natural gas utilities extend to and within the site. If the property is developed, specific needs and corresponding expansions would be considered. (p. 11) Market demand for development RKG Associates, Inc., a professional economic planning and real estate consultant, conducted a study of the market conditions in the Roanoke region to understand the demand for new commercial and residential development, which would inform how many dwelling units and how many square feet of retail would be in demand (p. 12-1 3). The study concludes that the Roanoke market could support 695 new residential units and 414,157 square feet of new retail and restaurants by 2030. The office market is projected to be weak. Accordingly, no office development is proposed. Community engagement An important feature of the consulting team's proposal was the strength of its community engagement process. As clearly documented in the plan, the proposed community engagement process was well implemented (p. 14). Community Engagement and Charrette Associates, a company specializing in community engagement, provided for citizens to have access to the planning process through varied tools such as meetings, focus groups, surveys (paper and online), and door-to-door canvasing interviews. 3 The consultant reported certain themes of stakeholder concern in the surrounding community: • Natural habitat preservation related to tree canopy, fe, protecting and preserving the waterways and protecting the lflo dplang �n. • Recreation access that could include a nature center, a natural swimming area, parks and trails connecting to the neighborhood, and providing child, adult, and senior activities with the park system. • Housing that is ecologically friendly and affordable, with smaller footprint buildings rather than high-rise buildings. • Commercial development that would benefit the surrounding neighborhood. Generally, participants preferred small, locally owned businesses and entrepreneurship opportunities, restaurants and other similar food related businesses, a neighborhood grocery store, and a theater. • Traffic concerns related to increased traffic that could result from connection the interchange and how existing neighborhood streets might be impacted. _ Land use As site analysis and community engagement concluded, the consulting team developed a set of seven objectives based on that analysis. These objectives were used to inform various scenarios for development. The recommendations of the 2013 Evans Spring Area Plan were heavily weighted in development of test scenarios and options. These objectives touch on the major issues of traffic, neighborhood context, environmental protection, neighborhood access, recreation amenities, housing opportunities, and local business opportunity (p. 16) Recommended plan As options and scenarios were evaluated, a plan emerged as the best option and was presented as the Recommended Development Plan (p. 19-20). Consistent with the 2013 plan, the master plan indicates large-scale retail near 1-581 shown in land bay A. Smaller scale retail and restaurant uses are located south of Lick Run following a main street development model in Land Bay B. Land Bay C, near the Andrews Road and 19th St. Intersection, contains apartments, small-scale retail, assisted living, and business incubator space. The southwest portion of the site in Land Bay D is oriented toward residential use, providing a variety of housing types including apartment buildings, townhouses, and detached single dwellings. Land Bay F located along the southbound entrance ramp from Hershberger Road, is oriented to a variety of housing types. 4 The ensuing pages 21 -27 detail transportation, open spaces, site grading, stormwater management, parking, and street design. An option that works around the Top Hill Drive residences is presented on pages 28 and 29, should those owners opt to not participate. The City does not and cannot use eminent domain to acquire properties for private development. Traffic impacts Based on the commercial and residential development proposed in the Recommended Development plan, the consultant projected traffic generation through various scenarios. Concepts 1 and 2 study the impact of connection between the interchange and neighborhood. Concept 3 studies no through connection and Concept 4 studies by-right development under the current zoning. Ultimately, Concept 3 is determined to be the best. The impact of the Recommended Development Plan can be assessed by comparing the "2045 No Build" column with the "2045 Concept 3" column in the table on page 30. A no vehicular connection scenario is achieved by establishing pedestrian-only street segments that prohibit through traffic in Land Bays B and C. Economic impacts Economic impacts were assessed in two phases: construction impacts, as the project is built out, and operational impacts, as ongoing economic activity that continues indefinitely. Construction would create over 2,000 jobs with labor • income of $133M and value-added activity of $186.8M. Ongoing operational impacts, projected through year 20, are enormous: 1 ,757 new jobs, $994.2M labor income, and $1 .7 billion in value-added activity. The study projects that new revenues to fund schools, public safety, and other public services are projected at $3.7M or more per year. Considerations The recommended plan balances a number of competing interests of various stakeholders. The plan is consistent with the Evans Spring Area Plan in its arrangement of land uses and successfully resolves issues of neighborhood and interchange access. The plan turns a development challenge into an asset by preserving the Lick Run and Evans Spring tributary and considering stream restoration and development of public greenway access. Currently, there is no public access to the pond or Lick Run. The plan recommends a residential development component that could support over 600 dwellings that could help to meet region's acute need for new housing. The form of most housing is smaller scale townhouses and small apartment buildings. No rent levels or costs for housing are indicated by the plan. 5 The commercial development south of Lick Run is scaled and oriented to serve the needs of multiple surrounding neighborhoods. Buildings and streets are arranged in a main street model. Truncating through access from the interchange to the neighborhood, while it would reduce neighborhood access, is a significant traffic management strategy. Though traffic would certainly increase on the neighborhood side, the projections indicate manageable volumes with the existing street system more- or-less in its current configuration. When a specific development plan for rezoning is considered, a traffic impact analysis should indicate off-site street improvements that are warranted. At a minimum the intersection of Andrews Road and 19th Street would need to be redesigned with safety improvements. Segments of Andrews and 19th Street should be retrofitted from high-speed suburban style roads to more appropriately sized streets that are pedestrian friendly lined with street trees. Consistency with Comprehensive Plan: The draft Evans Spring Master Plan is aligned with the policies established in City Plan 2040. The six guiding themes of City Plan 2040 are Interwoven Equity, Healthy Community, Harmony with Nature, Livable Built Environment, Responsible Regionalism, and Resilient Economy. Interwoven Equity An initial goal of the Evans Spring Master Plan process was to engage the community proactively in shaping future development proposals. There will be continuous pressure to develop these properties because the inventory of vacant land is so limited. City Plan 2040 acknowledges the history of inequality in northwest Roanoke through both implicit and proxy racist policies, redlining, and the targeted implementation of urban renewal policies. As a result, City Plan 2040 through its focus on Interwoven Equity recognizes the need to build trust within the community. To this end, a sincere effort was made to hire a consultant team that had special expertise in community engagement and to support an effort that took note of the community's concerns for the future of the properties. The result was a transparent process that details the predominant themes of the public input and includes specific safeguards in the plan to achieve some of the community's goals while mitigating the impact of potential future development. If approved, the Evans Spring Master Plan will provide city staff, Planning Commission, and City Council with a framework to guide any future rezoning and development proposals. Healthy Community The Evans Spring Master Plan promotes safety by recommending a transportation plan that eliminates a through connection from the interstate to the neighborhood, yet still provides access to some commercial elements and 6 provides bicycle and pedestrian access throughout the potential development. The neighborhood expressed concern that the through connection from the interstate to the neighborhood would create traffic problems, and the consultant's traffic study showed their concerns to be warranted, as it would require significant roadway improvements to make the increased traffic level feel comfortable if the development was built with a through connection. The proposed street sections within the recommended plan are designed to be multimodal and meet the City's Street Design Guidelines. The plan recommends significant wooded riparian buffers, stream restoration and greenway access for recreational access. Harmony with Nature Water Resource Management is a priority within the Harmony with Nature section of the comprehensive plan. The recommended development plan in the Evans Spring Master Plan will meet the Virginia Runoff Reduction Method (VRRM) and aim to minimize the impervious area and provide stormwater measures that will disconnect the impervious area. In addition, the proposed system will be designed to mitigate increase in runoff leaving the property due to the increased roof/ impervious areas. The project will include a number of Best Management Practices (BMPs) to manage stormwater generated from the development such as permeable pavement, detention areas, forebays, rain gardens, infiltration strips, bioretention swales, and level spreaders. This is in line with policy within City Plan 2040 to improve onsite management of stormwater quality and quantity in all development projects. City Plan 2040 also seeks to provide safe, accessible open space, greenspace, greenways, blueways, and parks for all residents. The Evans Spring Master Plan calls for the preservation of Evans Spring, protection of the floodplain, restoration of the stream and riparian area, establishment of buffers around the waterways, and enhancement of the surrounding habitat, while providing recreational amenities to include public open space and connections to the greenway. Currently, these properties are privately owned, but the preferred development scenario selected by the consultant team would provide for a substantial amount of acreage to be preserved as open space open to the public with a network of trails connecting to the greenway. Livable Built Environment The Evans Spring Master Plan is consistent with and implements multiple policies of the Livable Built Environment theme. The plan promotes context sensitive design with main street commercial forms and mixing of various housing types. It protects the stream and tributary by avoiding development in the floodplain and establishing a riparian buffer. The residential element brings a range of housing options to the existing neighborhood that is mostly detached single dwellings with few other options. The master plan recommends 7 assisted living housing that would enable elderly residents to transition to other living arrangements and stay in their neighborhood. The plan further recommends a connected system of well-designed tree-lined streets that accommodate mobility for pedestrians and cyclists comfortably. Existing bus routes (1 1&12) currently access the site. Responsible Regionalism City Plan 2040 describes a need for locally-focused plans to work to prevent sprawl. The Evans Spring Master Plan has a regional anti-sprawl consideration. The plan implements adopted Sierra Club Urban Infill Policy, which advocates guiding new development into infill sites like the Evans Spring area. Staff has encouraged local environmental advocates to review the Evans Spring Master Plan in the context of the Smart Growth and Urban Infill Policy (2021) adopted and published by the Sierra Club. ' If the Evans Spring site is not developed, it does not mean that development will not occur. It will likely occur somewhere else in the region on a greenfield site, in a way that does not consider environmental preservation in its development plan, and in a location which has no prospect for transit access. Likewise, the City has often been supportive or an active partner in redevelopment projects throughout the City including in downtown, along the South Jefferson Redevelopment Area, and now within Riverdale, the former Viscose Plant. These redevelopment projects work in tandem with urban infill projects to help the City grow without creating sprawl. Resilient Economy For years, concerns in the surrounding neighborhoods have focused on restoring access to basic goods and services like groceries that residents once had access to in the neighborhood. Indeed, many of Roanoke's enduring and resilient neighborhoods have commercial development within and adjacent to the neighborhood, providing easy access. One of the intentions of the development framework is to provide access to goods and services without having to drive miles to other parts of the City. Furthermore, both the 2013 plan and master plan carefully consider the relationship of proposed development to the existing neighborhood. A key priority in City Plan 2040 was to develop local businesses and entrepreneurs. The Technical Memo on Local Entrepreneurship outlines an entrepreneurship development program could be created to serve residents in neighborhoods that would be most affected by development at Evans Spring. The program could include small-scale incubator, retail incubator, and/or a community kitchen. The plan directly calls for the creation of opportunities for local entrepreneurship and lists business incubator as one of the recommended uses in both Land Bay B and Land Bay C. ' www.sierraclub.org/smartgrowth-urban-infill 8 Public Comment At the March 9 community meeting, there was significant opposition to any development and advocacy for acquisition by the city for a park. Opposition to development has been expressed throughout the process. The consulting team and staff were not optimistic that any level of engagement would generate unanimous community support for development. The purpose of the engagement was not to determine support or opposition, nor to attempt to generate support, but rather to understand concerns and make responsive modifications to the development plan. In other words, if the property is developed, then how can development be shaped to respond to community concerns. Staff noted concerns throughout the process and summarizes them in the points below: • Additional time required to thoroughly review the plan • Lack of an environmental study • City Council hearing on an irregular meeting date • Additional time needed for the Friends of Evans Springs to present to City Council • Potential for bad weather in February • Clarification needed regarding potential discrepancies in the plan • Removal of tree canopy • Additional residential units and commercial businesses • Lack of a nature preserve • Poor planning practices based on a rational planning model • Wildlife habit destruction • Increased stormwater run-off • Lack of partnership between the City and community • Lack of buffer around Evans Spring • Lack of an ecologically-sensitive recreation area near Evans Spring • Allowing additional commercial construction when existing commercial spaces at neighboring shopping centers are vacant, • Visual intrusion of the bridge, • Increase in noise • Lack of requiring public acquisition of undevelopable land • Lack of a historic survey • Community desire for a nature preserve over all other forms of development • Lack of trust based on past urban renewal projects. • Destruction of a rare Appalachian upland wetland habitat. • Impact on the Lick Run Greenway. • Using the 2013 Evans Spring Area Plan as a starting point for how to develop the property. • Not considering eminent domain as a means to create a nature preserve • Correlation between increased violence and reduced tree canopy. 9 • The plan addresses neighborhood input by no-link from 1-581 to the neighborhood and creating strategies to mitigate gentrification. Suggested changes regarding clarity and discrepancies within the plan have been incorporated and helped to create the current version of the draft document. Online and paper petitions previously gathered for and against the proposed change were also submitted. The majority of the petition signers vvere opposed to the plan. Planning Commission: Public comments concerned the desire for a nature preserve at Evans Spring, adoption of the master plan raising the price of the land, trees on this property needed to protect the northwest portion of the City from the rising heat index, lack of a trauma-informed analysis, desire to preserve this historic property, property noted for preservation in the Virginia Wildlife Action Plan, abundance of vacant commercial property in close proximity to this property, economic analysis based on department store not reflective of current economic trends, proposal disproportionally affecting minority communities, lack of consideration of climate risk, destruction of wildlife habitat, need for flooding analysis, current reducing tax basis in our City, desire to include place-based learning at Evans Spring, and need for more park space in the northwest quadrant of the City. Conclusions and Recommendations: The Planning Commission appreciates the citizen participation in this process and thinks that this master plan adds an additional layer of protection to any future development of this land, addressing the community's concerns of equity, health community, and harmony with nature in not displacing property owners, requiring preservation of a large portion of the property, allowing public access to an outdoor amenity, providing future opportunity for the community with a mix of housing and commercial development in a walkable community. The Planning Commission supports the process used to develop the master plan as providing opportunity to be engaged. The team documented how it responded to identified community concerns about the prospect of development. The consulting team, made up of certified landscape architects, economic experts, and professional engineers, brought considerable professional competency to the process with experts in transportation, stormwater management, environmental management, market analysis, economic impact, and community engagement. 1O The Evans Spring Master Plan is consistent with the comprehensive plan, City Plan 2040, and the Evans Spring Area Plan and the Planning Commission recommends adoption as a component of the comprehensive plan.

SESSION AS MANY OF MY COLLEGUES, I HAVE RECEIVED AN ENORMOUS NUMBER OF EMAILS FROM COMMUNITIES THROUGHOUT THE CITY IN OPPOSITION OF ADOPTING THE PROPOSED EVANS SPRING DEVELOPMENT PLAN. I ALSO TOOK THE TIME TO ATTEND THE PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING HELD ON MONDAY, FEBRUARY 11, HOPING TO GAIN ADDITIONAL UNDERSTANDING AND PERHAPS HELP GUIDE MY DECISION. THIS WAS NOT THE CASE. IN FACT, IT VALIDATE THE CONCERNS NOTED BY THOSE IN OPPOSITION. 1 UP UNTIL NOW WHEN A DECISION IS BEFORE THE COUNCIL, THE HAVE NOT BEEN ANY COMMENTS OR PRESENTATIONS ON RECORD FOM THE ECONMIC DEVELOPMENT DIRECTOR, WHO WAS IN ATTENDANCE AT THE PLANNING COMMISSION, BUT NEVER SPOKE; THE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY OR THE LANDOWNERS/ REPRESENTATIVES, OTHER THAN PAYING $75,00.00 EACH ALONG WITH THE CITY FOR A TOTAL AMOUNT OF $225,000.00 TO HIRE A CONSULTANT TO HELP CREATE THIS PLAN. THROUGHOUT THE ENIRE PROCESS, THE COMMUNITY WHICH CONSISTS OF REISDENTS LIVING NEAR THE EVANS SPRING AREA, THE MELROSE-RUGBY, VILLA HEIGHTS, AND FAIRLAND LAKES NEIGHBORHOOD REPRESENTATIVES, CONCERNED RESIDENTS ACROSS THE CITY AND PERSONS WITH EXPERTISE IN CONSERVATION AND PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT, ALL HAVE GONE ON RECORD OPPOSING THIS PLAN FOR VARIOUS REASONS. 2 I WANT TO BE CLEAR-I AM NOT OPPOSE TO ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT - NEW COMMERCIAL, MIXED RESIDENTIAL OPPORTUNITIES FOR THE CITY. IN FACT, I WOULD LIKE TO MORE OF MIXED RESIDENTIAL OPPORTUNITIES TO HELP WITH THE HOUSING CRISIS THE CITY FACES. MY PAUSE IS THE UNANSWERED QUESTIONS THAT STILL NEED RESPONSES (THEY ARE LISTED IN THE PLANNING COMMISSION'S REPORT) BEFORE THIS PLAN SHOULD BE CONSIDERED FOR APPROVAL. AGAIN, I SUPPORT COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT, HOWEVER, IT IS DIFFICULT TO DISREGARD COMMENTS FROM THOSE WHO HAVE EXPRESSED SERIOUS CONCERNS THAT HAVE YET TO BE ADDRESSED BEING NEIGHBORHOOD NEEDS, ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS, ETC. 3 AND I WISH TO POINT OUT THAT THERE ARE VARIOUS LOCATIONS THROUGHOUT THE NORTHWEST BUSINESS CORRIDORS THAT ARE UNDERUTILIZED AND COULD BE REDEVELOPED THROUGH SOME TYPE OF COLLOBARATION WITH THOSE OWNERS. PERHAPS CONSIDERATION COULD BE GIVEN TO CREATING A BUSINESS ASSOCIATION THAT COULD HELP REBUILD THESE STRESSED MAIN THOROUGHFARES (ROUTE 460 FROM SALEM TO ROANOKE COUNTY AND 11TH STREET, N.W.). THANK YOU. COUNCIL MEMBER STEPHANIE MOON REYNOLDS 4 Statement on Evans Spring 15 January 2024 RAISE, Roanoke Area Interfaith Stewards of the Earth, is a local organization of people of faith who care about our environment. As members of RAISE, we encourage all people of faith and good will to consider the future of the Evans Spring area of northwest Roanoke. As decisions are made about the future of this land, we urge that the following be kept in mind: All land ownership is provisional. Land belongs primarily to its creator, who many of us know as God. In our Abrahamic traditions we believe that"the Earth is the Lord's and all that is in it, the world, and those who live in it" (Psalm 24:1 NRSV). Arguably, using the land for human purposes, while permitted, is not necessarily the land's highest use. On its own, nature praises God through beauty and biodiversity, ceaselessly, every day. If we seek to stifle that praise, we must have an extremely good reason. Evans Spring in particular is very special, classified as a rare "freshwater emergent wetland" or"wet meadow."' In this special place, cattail, bluejoint grass, reed canary grass, soft rush, wood grass, sedges, smartweeds, asters, goldenrods, lily pads, sycamore, and others praise their creator. Stifling this song of praise is something we must not do lightly. Not all citizens are human. Potawatomi botanist Robin Wall Kimmerer writes that the maple trees are the most loyal and service-oriented citizens in her entire town (Braiding Sweetgrass 168). We note significant discourse around Evans Spring that implies that"undeveloped" land is "wasted."We beg to differ. Apart from the land's function in praising God, noted above, the ecosystem services provided by this land contribute significantly to human well-being in the area. Evans Spring serves as an important stormwater catchment area; the spring and surrounding area feed a watershed that flows into our beloved Roanoke River. Evans Spring also provides an island of cool in the midst of an overall sweltering neighborhood. In those heat maps of Roanoke, Evans Spring shows as a patch of blue in the midst of reds and oranges.2 As temperatures continue to increase due to climate change, we need these cool areas more than ever. Listen to the neighbors.We are acutely aware of the injustices, betrayals, and incredibly harmful actions taken by the city of Roanoke towards residents of the Gainsboro neighborhood and surrounding African-American neighborhoods. It is high time that Roanoke City show some contrition and repentance; one way to do this would be to listen to the communities of color who live near Evans Spring, and act in their best interest rather than in the interest of land owners. This would clearly demonstrate that the city is concerned with the needs of all of its citizens. We strongly support a proposal to buy Evans Spring from the landowners to turn it into a city park and green space. The alternative- development in Evans Spring -would add to the heat index by the very nature of the buildings, parking areas, and other infrastructure. Do we really need our strong but struggling Northwest neighborhoods to be even hotter than they already are, ' Evans Spring Master Plan Planning Level Stormwater Calculations, November 8, 2023. https://www.roanokeva.gov/DocumentCenterNiew/19180/Roanoke-Stormwater-Division-Report?bid Id= 2 For example: https://www.roanokeva.gov/2720/Urban-Heat-Island-Effect knowing the correlations between crime and heat? Holistic health and environmental justice both support the proposal to keep Evans Spring green. Creative problem solving can create a win-win. Developing Evans Spring seems to offer much needed housing and retail, but this is an illusion. Our affordable housing problems can be solved through infill—fix up existing vacant houses, build on vacant lots within existing neighborhoods, and permit greater density in existing neighborhoods—rather than by paving over God's green earth. Retail needs are similar; let's prioritize retrofits and re-builds on current shopping areas rather than despoiling God's creation for the sake of profit. These measures would add tax dollars to the city as well, maybe even more than development in Evans Springs (since infill typically doesn't require the city to build out costly infrastructure on new construction). Creative problem solving should always include reusing and repurposing existing structures first. It's less wasteful of materials and reflects a city concerned about its environmental footprint. And surely the advantages for our stormwater system, parks system, and overall community well-being would make any financial outlay, to turn Evans Spring into a park, worthwhile. Our city's guiding documents point to the importance of preserving Evans Spring. The Climate Action Plan and City Plan 2040 claim "Harmony with Nature" as an important value for our city. This value includes the importance of wise land use and water resource management, good tree stewardship and plentiful outdoor recreation in a clean and beautiful city. Preserving Evans Spring as a green space clearly supports this very important value from our city's 2040 plan. The Climate Action Plan, which has been officially adopted, calls city leaders to "identify sensitive lands... within the City and create practices to protect and encourage connections between them" (Chapter 8, p. 100). It also proposes "strategic acquisition of floodplain" areas (103) as part of an effort to "protect the natural function of undeveloped floodplains" (104). Finally, the Climate Action Plan calls for the city to "conduct an economic evaluation to monetize ecosystem services" for areas "under potential development" -this should inform decision making (114). It seems obvious that Evans Spring is a "sensitive land"worthy of"strategic acquisition"; allowing development will lead to harm - including economic harm - in the long term. We have an obligation to the past, and to the future. Future generations need us to use land wisely so that they can survive, and thrive in, a climate-changed world. They will need maximum green space and minimal urban sprawl. Past generations also lay claim on us. Injustices from the past, such as urban renewal, haunt this current situation. Let us move, albeit belatedly and inadequately, towards justice for communities that have been harmed, rather than reinforcing past traumas. Budgets are moral documents. As a community, we must let our actions reflect our values. As RAISE, we call on all people of faith and good will to support the preservation of the undeveloped land in Evans Spring. And we ask city leaders who make these decisions to consult their conscience, individually and collectively, and act in accordance with what is right, not simply what is expedient or profitable.

Evans Spring is the largest remaining tract of "undeveloped" land in Roanoke City and currently provides critical ecosystem services that protect local public health from extreme urban heat and protect homes and property against flooding. Roanoke has a glut of underutilized and vacant commercial and industrial areas - and the accompanying concrete and asphalt that traps heat and contributes to stormwater runoff. We do not want or need more unnecessary, irresponsible development that degrades our environment and lowers our quality of life. Please support the creation of a park and greenspace around Evans Spring that respects the wishes of the local neighborhoods and aligns with Roanoke's stated values and goals around sustainability and equity. friendsofevansspring@gmail.com Pagel 1 Name From Comments 1.

There are HUNDREDS of vacant commercial properties that could be renovated and revamped to suit whatever business. Destroying a key water source for local wildlife, removing even more forests and making Roanoke City a complete heat trap is not the answer.Who knows how many people could be affected by this, and what sense does it make when there are very clear alternatives. 75.

Kelly P Roanoke, VA There are so many other places that can be developed without spoiling the beauty of such a place, highland wetlands are important and irreplaceable parts of the ecosystem and must be protected-we can\'t sacrifice the natural beauty of the area in the name of another building, otherwise we loose the very reason people want to move here- why no buy an existing property in need of revitalization and fix a problem already here- make something better, not worse. 92. Virginia W Bent Mountain, VA 93. Sharlyn T Eggleston, VA I lived in Roanoke County and Roanoke City for fourteen years.

Harrilyn M Roanoke, VA Evans Springs wetlands could be another keystone in Roanoke's designation as an "outside" city. With ecologically structured walkways and gathering areas, this could be an educational and family-friendly designation.

Green spaces are essential for attracting residents to urban areas and preventing urban sprawl. They encourage healthier urban growth and recreation that can promote responsible urban development through ecotourism while protecting public health of residents and promoting vibrant and happy communities. Green spaces are so important for urban areas. Protect them. 157. Keisha B Roanoke , VA I don\'t agree with with they are trying to do,it\'s homes families and a school that this will impact 158.

Glenn S TROUTVILLE, VA As a past and future Roanoke city resident, I\'m well aware of the historical exploitation and damage that urban renewal perpetrated on our Black communities. It was wrong and it has to stop. New commercial development should be encouraged in our many abandoned properties to avoid creating new heat sinks and runoff hazards and to preserve limited urban green space. 180. Rebecca T Roanoke , VA Please preserve this green space. Developing this area would be a detrimental decision for the Roanoke Valley and beyond. It is imperative that we preserve our wetlands and forests. Roanoke has already lost a large percentage of tree canopy due to irresponsible development. 181. Autumn V Shawsville , VA 182.

Emily H Roanoke, VA Evans Spring is an important green space hold out in a section of Roanoke that is otherwise typically up to 10 degrees hotter. Heat in old neighborhoods is a recipe for health disaster and death for the elderly and young children. More, VT researchers have connected heat islands to the recent string of shootings in the City (y\'all ever talk to an over-heated person who is being rational? Me neither.) Beyond the shade and cool air provided, the area is a nice park to bike/run/bird watch in independently or to have little family-friendly parties. rye been blessed to see milestone birthdays and family reunions in passing.

The greater neighborhood residents have been quite forthright when expressing their concerns for the development of the Evans Spring area.They, among others, opposed the 2019 Pavilion Development. The residents once again mobilized to express their vision for sustaining their neighborhoods and concerns for developing Evans Spring. Their comments are summarized: Neighborhoods • Maintain the ambiance of their quiet neighborhoods. • New houses should look like those in their neighborhoods. • No apartment complexes. • No commercial development, including big box stores. • No through traffic through their neighborhoods. • Recognize the historic significance of the greater Evans Springs area to the neighborhoods. Access • Access to any new development is only from 1-581. • No new streets extending through existing neighborhoods. • No access from 1-581 to the neighborhoods. Ecosystem sustainability • Recognize and protect the biological diversity of the greater Evans Spring ecosystem that is uniquely significant. • Enhance and preserve the sustainability of the biodiversity of the ecosystems of Lick Run Creek,Trout Run Creek, Fairland Lake, and Evans Spring including riparian areas,floodplains and wetlands. • Designate a buffer zone to protect the flood plain, springs, wetlands and the creek from contamination from sources outside the flood plain boundary. Proposed Action • Identify a bounded area for preservation. • Complete a scientific biological evaluation to address the biological significance of the bounded area. • Complete a historic evaluation to address the historic significance within the bounded area. • Develop a storm water services management plan for the bounded area. ,j- • Complete a cost benefit study to determine economic benefits for city businesses to be flood free. Guidelines for design • Preserve Lick Run Creek,Trout Run, Fairland Lake, and Evans Spring and adjacent forests, creeks, springs, riparian areas,wetlands,flood plains as a nature preserve. • Design storm water structures to maintain ecosystem functions of the area including maintaining the high water quality from the springs. Manage storm water runoff to protect downtown businesses from flooding. • Design nature preserve and storm water management area as one with developed storm water structures, nature trails, the Greenway, boardwalks, and observation areas to view and interpret the unique historic and ecological features of the watershed. Future The neighborhood looks forward to future community engagement meetings to review proposals developed by the contractor including potential development of single family housing on a tract currently zoned and subdivided for single family housing. We are deeply concerned about the article that appeared in the Roanoke Rambler on March 21, 2023. We seek to engage with elected officials and city planning staff in the best interest of the community with respect to everyone who is involved. We want to collaborate rather than to be divisive.We want to hear each other rather than to be dismissive. We want to move toward healing and trust rather than repeating the violence of the past and creating more alienation. We trust that the City leadership agrees, and if not,that such an agreement will be reached. We recognize that we are all a part of the Beloved Community and we should embrace each other as such while we work together to achieve conciliation. Several residents stated in a subsequent steering committee meeting that the city is going to do what they want to do just like they did during urban renewal. This story was heard from local residents dating back to urban renewal and destruction of neighborhoods, cemeteries, churches, neighborhood schools and businesses. Today,the public wants creative planning that is environmentally sensitive and sustainable. They want to have a role in achieving quality projects focused on equity, peace, and justice while showing respect to Roanoke's history, restoring trust, and building a sense of community across the Valley.

An economic analysis and public participation were included in the contract. There was no biological assessment of land and water capability to support habitat.The Evans Spring area is a unique jewel within the city limits of Roanoke. That jewel deserves attention. Option 1 maintains Top Hill as a subdivision. If all Top Hill residents willingly sell their property to a developer Option 3 is adopted. The city has no role in purchasing or developing the property hence no legal avenue for imminent domain. State law and a constitutional amendment prohibit the city declaring imminent domain for purchasing private land for a private developer. Option 1 and Option 3 provide no road connection linking 1-581 with Andrews Road. *Concept Plan 13.2 - Option 1 - Recommendation to the council Overview • Maintains Top Hill Top Subdivision and current access from Andrews Road. • Option 1 has a higher Residential Area D density and lower Commercial Area B density. • Access to Residential Area D is from Andrews Road (2 points), Spring Hill Drive, Sherman Drive, and Top Hill Drive. • The primary access road from Interstate 581 (1-581) as shown in Plan 13.2 Option 1 has less environmental impact than preliminary alternatives and concepts. The road ends within Commercial Area B providing no access to Residential Area D and Neighborhood Service Center C. It provides access to Commercial Area A. • Area F has little detail. It appears to be a combination of apartments,townhouses, smaller single family residences, commercial and higher density housing. More information is needed on this tract before additional comments are made. The flood plain is identified. Recommendations • Eliminate Residential Area E. The proposed residential area is immediately adjacent to the spring. There is no adequate buffer to protect the spring and surrounding area ecosystem. • Development will have a negative impact on the spring ecosystem by potential toxic runoff from the proposed streets and herbicide and fertilizer runoff from lawns. • Children playing in the spring and along the edge would impair the biodiversity of creatures and plants specific to the riparian and wetland area. • Residential Area E is an area suited for public access for the Friends of Evans Spring proposal for recreation development and preservation. Access to the spring is proposed by constructing elevated boardwalks and viewing platforms with historic, geologic, and ecologic interpretation. • This area will provide access to the greenway as well as a trail system. • Eliminate Commercial Area A. The impervious parking area for Commercial Area A will have a significant impact on increased storm water runoff directly into Lick Run Creek. There is little buffer for contaminants to be filtered before they enter the creek. Likewise there will be significant runoff from impervious surfaces in Commercial Areas B and C and Residential Area D. • The area colored in green and blue and steep topographical areas should be in public ownership with the exception of buffer strips between residences on Norris Drive, Andrews Road, and Leon Street. Those buffers should be the responsibility of the developer to plant and maintain. • City assumes leadership to broker a sale of these properties to through Blue Ridge Land Conservancy. • The proposed extension of the greenway follows the southern edge of the parking area for Commercial Area A. Viewing a parking lot up close reduces the quality recreation experience of the greenway. • The storm water park could be developed as a biological wetland with wildlife viewing areas. • Option 1 addresses neighborhood input. (1) No link from 1-581 into the neighborhood, (2) No taking of housing from current neighborhood residents, (3) Do not run traffic through the neighborhood, (4) Create strategies to mitigate gentrification. (Evans Spring Master Plan Report, 9.2 Public/ Neighborhood Input, page 15. *Concept Plan 14.1 — Option 3 recommended to the council Overview • Hill Top Subdivision becomes part of Commercial Area B creating a higher density commercial development including Neighborhood Service Center C. • Option 3 reduces new residential development than Option 1 in Residential Area D. • The primary access road from Interstate 1-581 as shown in Plan 14.1 Option 3 has less environmental impact than preliminary alternatives and concepts. • The road system from 1-581 accesses Commercial Areas A and B. It does not access Residential Area D or Neighborhood Service Area C. • Access to Residential Area D is from Andrews Road (2 points), Spring Hill Drive, Sherman Drive, and Top Hill Drive. • Commercial Areas A and B are separated from Neighborhood Service Center C and Residential Area D by a pedestrian walkway. Recommendations • Eliminate Residential Area E. There is no adequate buffer to protect the spring and surrounding area ecosystem. The residential area is immediately adjacent to the spring. Development will have a negative impact on the spring ecosystem by potential toxic runoff from the proposed streets and herbicide and fertilizer runoff from lawns. • Children playing in the spring and along the edge would impair the biodiversity of creatures and plants specific to the riparian and wetland area. • Residential Area E is an area suited for public access for the Friends of Evans Spring proposal for recreation development and areas for preservation. Access to the spring is proposed by constructing elevated boardwalks and viewing platforms with historic, geologic, and ecologic interpretation. • City assumes leadership to broker a sale of these properties to Blue Ridge Land Conservancy. • Eliminate Commercial Area A. The impervious parking area for Commercial Area A will have a significant impact on increased storm water runoff directly into Lick Run Creek. Likewise there will be significant runoff from impervious surfaces in Commercial Areas B and C and Residential Area D due to high density residential development. It splits the proposed Evans Spring Preserve in half. • The area colored in green and blue should be in public ownership with the exception of buffer strips between residences on Norris Drive, Andrews Road, and Leon Street. Those buffers should be the responsibility of the developer to plant and maintain. • The proposed extension of the greenway follows the southern edge of the parking area for Commercial Area A. Viewing a parking lot up close reduces the quality recreation experience of the greenway. • The storm water park could be developed as a biological wetland with viewing areas. • Option 3 (Master Plan 3.1) addresses neighborhood input. (1) No link from 1-581 into the neighborhood, (2) No taking of housing from current neighborhood residents, (3) Do not run traffic through the neighborhood, (4) Create strategies to mitigate gentrification. (Evans Spring Master Plan Report, 9.2 Public/ Neighborhood Input, page 15. *Summary "Overall, at the community meetings there was significant and vocal opposition expressed against any development on the property, other than continuing to build neighborhood and open spaces." Evans Spring Master Plan Report, 9.2 Public/ Neighborhood Input, page 15. Neighborhood residents oppose commercial development or Valley View Mall encroachment to residential areas south of 1-581. This includes areas designated as Commercial Development A and B. Residents are more open to housing "that looks like ours," and a Neighborhood Service Center with no gas station. The Friends of Evans Spring have inventoried many vacant commercial buildings from the former Sears Store to many vacant spaces in neighboring shopping centers. There are also a number of abandoned industrial sites that have potential for repurposing and restoring to commercial productivity. Priority should be given to these potential sites for development. New businesses should provide opportunities for African American owned businesses. It would be reasonable to work with neighborhood residents on the design of the Neighborhood Services Area. Providing more information will assist the neighborhood to visualize the development as well as identify compatible businesses. Residents support new residential development with homes that look like those in existing neighborhoods. It should also be noted that an elevated entrance highway crossing the proposed greenway will greatly reduce the visual recreation experience. Noise will also be a factor. Likewise viewing a big box store (Commercial Area A) from the greenway and accompanied parking area will degrade the scenic recreation experience. Runoff will from Areas A and B will significantly increase runoff to Lick Run Creek. A comprehensive plan for storm water mitigation integrating recreation open space and development is essential to the project. A nature preserve with storm water mitigation structures eliminates any further degradation to the ecosystem and preserves the last remaining preservable large forested tract in Roanoke. Once developed (Commercial Area A)the site will never be recoverable. The city should provide the developer strong guidelines on the use of"smart surfaces" to reduce water runoff and storm water retention structures to provide irrigation water for commercial and perhaps residential use. This work should be overseen by a Coldwater Fishery Biologist. 1 The city should work with private landowners and the Blue Ridge Land Conservancy to acquire undevelopable lands, including those in the proposed Residential Area E, for preservation for flood water mitigation and recreation, including the greenway extension. This area includes areas of steep slopes and the generally described wetlands and flood plains and the spring. The tree canopy is significant in the targeted area. Research by Carillion Hospital and Dr. Theo Lim of Virginia Tech independently address the effects of urban heat islands on neighborhood health. The tree canopy provides health benefits to residents. Trees on steep slopes and those surrounding Evans Spring, Lick Run Creek, adjoining riparian areas and floodplain must be preserved as public land. Trees in the proposed residential area should be protected outside the footprint of the structure.A significant tree planting program is instituted on disturbed lands as well as existing streets and homes in the Northwest neighborhood. There are questions to yet be addressed. The Friends of Evan Springs want to be informed as the process continues. Evans Spring Preamble Talking Points Neighborhood Developed Guidelines December 5, 2023 The following are reflections from the Greater Melrose, Rugby, Fairfield, and Villa Heights Community Engagement Meeting—Charrette on March 9, 2023 hosted by City consultants, Land Planning and Design Associates, Inc. at Williams Baptist Church. The meeting was attended by approximately 125 citizens. Dialogue continued within the community and Friends of Evans Spring discussions. Comments also were reinforced to the consultants at the public meeting at William Fleming High School. The subcontractor leading public involvement stated that there is strong opposition of residents of the adjoining neighborhoods.

The contract includes (1) community input, (2) market and economic analysis, (3) infrastructure and traffic, and (4) site yield and placemaking all to yield a responsive plan (Evans Spring Master Plan Report, page 7). There was no contract provision for a biological assessment of land and water capability to support habitat. The Evans Spring area is a biologically diverse unique jewel within the city limits of Roanoke. That jewel deserves protection. The Evans Spring area is composed of several privately owned tracts totaling approximately 150 acres. Collectively the ownership is the largest remaining tract of preservable land in Roanoke City. The tract currently provides ecosystem services that: • Protects Evans Spring and Lick Run Creek and the adjacent forest, flood plain, wetland, habitat, and water quality. • Provides a tree canopy that protects the community from extreme heat. • Serves, to some degree, a limited but essential flood mitigation for downtown Roanoke. The Plan identifies key issues to be resolved, addressed, and or mitigated during the planning process: • "Negative impacts to the surrounding neighborhood, • Feasibility and cost of the proposed Valley View Mall Interchange, • Protection of the Evans Spring environmental feature,* • Conservation and protection of the Lick Run Creek floodplain and floodway corridor." (Evans Spring Master Plan Report, page 7). *Writer's Note:The Evans Spring is an ecological sensitive inland wetland. backyard?" • Commercial development will bring increased traffic congestion, noise, and night lighting to adjoining tranquil residential neighborhoods. • New development will negatively impact Evans Spring, Lick Run Creek, the adjoining wetland, riparian area, and flood plain from increased runoff from new impervious surfaces. • New development will increase flooding of downtown businesses. • The commercial development "big box" identified as Commercial Area A is supported by 1000 parking spaces creating an unacceptable runoff directly into Lick Run Creek. • The $55 million interchange with 1-581 is an extreme cost to taxpayers with a high impact to the environment. The proposed economic return is questionable. Residents support revitalizing existing abandoned and vacant commercial and industrial sites. • Roanoke has a glut of underutilized and vacant abandoned commercial and industrial sites including the former Sears building within the Valley View Mall complex. • There are acres of unused parking in Valley View that could be repurposed for a free standing "big box" store. • Impervious surfaces of these sites continue to trap heat and contribute to storm water runoff. • These vacant sites produce no economic gain to the Roanoke economy. • Residents support the restoration and return of economic productivity of these sites. Residents seek a publicly accessible nature preserve and green space for Evans Spring. This proposal aligns with Roanoke's stated values and goals for harmony with nature, sustainability, and equity. • Residents petition the Roanoke City Council to direct the city manager to develop a plan to acquire the parcels currently zoned Residential-Agriculture (RA) in the Evans Spring Planning Area and rezone those parcels to Recreation-Open Space (ROS). Community Public Input in the Planning Process Background "Overall, at the community meetings, there was a significant and vocal opposition expressed against any development on the property, other than continuing to build neighborhood and open spaces." (Evans Spring Master Plan Report, 9.2 Public/ Neighborhood Input, page 15). "While this process was a successful and informative community engagement launch, Community Engagement and Charrette Associates team recommends development and implementation of an ongoing community engagement effort." (Evans Spring Master Plan Report, 9.2 Public/ Neighborhood Input, page 14) The Friends of Evans Spring support additional public involvement contacting smaller groups of residents. Residents who participated in a small group setting led by Virginia Tech students stated they felt that they were really heard. The Charrette setting was one event with about 125 city-wide participants divided into in a small room. Discussion was difficult at best. The limited number of door to door contacts and a questionnaire did not enable discussion with others. These decisions are neighborhood decisions and public involvement should be planned accordingly. Chuck D'Aprix, a contracted economist commented that shopping centers and malls have a 30 year point beginning economic deterioration. There are certainly exceptions to this, but one can look around Roanoke and see this phenomena occurring. Over ten year increments, this phenomena increases exponentially. Community Response Neighborhood residents oppose commercial development or Valley View Mall encroachment to residential areas south of 1-581. • Some residents are more open to housing "that looks like ours," and a Neighborhood Service Center with a grocery store and other neighborhood services and conveniences, but no gas station. • Neighborhood residents view "homes that look like ours" as a protection against gentrification. • The proposed Neighborhood Service Center C should be further defined working with the neighborhoods. The Friends of Evans Spring have inventoried many vacant commercial buildings from the former Sears Store to many vacant spaces in neighboring shopping centers. There are also a 1 number of abandoned industrial sites that have potential for repurposing and restoring to commercial productivity. Priority should be given to these potential sites for development. Positions Eliminate Residential Area E • The residential area is immediately adjacent to the spring. There is no adequate buffer to protect the spring and the surrounding area ecosystem. Development will have a negative impact on the spring ecosystem by potential toxic runoff from the proposed streets and herbicide and fertilizer runoff from lawns. • Children playing in the spring and along the edge would impair the biodiversity of creatures and plants specific to the riparian and wetland area. • Residents support new residential development with homes that look like those in existing neighborhoods. Option 1 and 2 are acceptable with Commercial Area B eliminated and Residential Area D expanded into current area B. Preservation of Undevelopable Lands • The city should work with private landowners and the Blue Ridge Land Conservancy or others to acquire undevelopable lands, including developable lands in the proposed Residential Area E and Commercial Area A for preservation. The boundaries of this area includes undevelopable steep slopes and the generally described wetlands, flood plains and the spring. • Develop flood mitigation structures to protect downtown businesses. Mitigation structures are integrated with recreation development. • Protect and Enhance Forested Areas • The tree canopy is significant in the targeted area. Research by Carillion Hospital and Dr. Theo Lim of Virginia Tech independently address the effects of urban heat islands on neighborhood health and public safety. • The tree canopy provides health benefits to residents. Trees on steep slopes and those surrounding Evans Spring, Lick Run Creek, adjoining riparian areas and floodplain must be preserved as public land. • Trees in the proposed residential areas should be protected outside the footprint of the structure. A significant tree planting program must be instituted on disturbed lands as well as existing streets and homes in the Northwest neighborhood. Recreation • Recreational opportunities abound in this the area. The flood plain, spring, bounded steep slopes, and the current developable areas A and E are well suited for recreation. Area E is a prime gateway into the greater area.The greenway will also provide access. Area A is a meadow feature for viewing wildlife and birding. The area is presently a favored bird viewing area. • The area provides an opportunity for a hiking trail network through the area. Trails will link with neighborhoods. • A trail and/or greenway near Lick Run will provide prime opportunities for fishing. Lick Run can be designated as a trout fishery for children 18 and under and senior citizens. • Floodwater mitigation measures will provide opportunities for installing fish structures to enhance the native trout habitat. • Construct elevated boardwalks, the greenway, and hiking trails including Kiwanis Club sponsored interpretative signing for historic and environmental education. Boardwalks and viewing decks will provide protection to wetland and environmentally sensitive areas. • The recreation experience will be dynamic with seasonal flooding events The Friends of Evans Spring beseech the Mayor and Council members to seize the opportunity of protect the Evans Spring area as a biologically diverse public jewel. l Evans Spring Master Plan Stormwater Management Friends of Evans Spring February 8, 2024 The Roanoke City brochure "Flooding in Roanoke" addresses nineteen streets in Roanoke as Flood Prone Roads. 10th Street NW is within close proximity to the Evans Spring area. Lick Run Creek intersects with 10th Street NW just below the Evans Spring properties. The Flood Insurance Rate (FIRM) Map, developed by the Federal Emergency Agency (FEMA), delineates floodplain areas, including along Lick Run Creek. The 100 year flood plain is the standard. It is based on the flood events of the past 100 years. Lick Run Creek has an identified floodplain through the Evans Spring property. The floodplain expands significantly further more downstream culminating with a large mapped area of high flood risk in the Lick Run Norfolk Southern Watershed, which includes the downtown area. Under the heading "Preventing Flood Damage" the report acknowledges "when portions of floodplains are preserved in their natural state, or restored to it, they provide many benefits to both human and natural systems. Floodplains provide floodwater storage and conveyance to reduce flood velocity and flood peaks, and filter nutrients and impurities from runoff," (Flooding in Roanoke, City of Roanoke Brochure). Evans Spring Master Plan Report addresses stormwater runoff for Lick Run Creek. (Flooding in Roanoke,Chapter 6,Page 10 and 11).The report addresses recommendations that acknowledge the ecological significance of the Evans Spring floodplain. The report recommends ambitious actions to restore the natural order to the creek and floodplain, including a conservation easement protecting the stream corridor, (Recommendations, p. 10). The plan maps the Regulatory Floodway, (page 8),the Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA - 100 year Flood Zone), and the River and Creek Corridor (RCC), (Illustration, Evan Springs Master Plan page8 and 10). The RCC providing the most protection. We recommend placing a conservation easement over the River and Creek Corridor, in addition, including Residential Area E and undevelopable steep land which may lie outside of the RCC, together will provide the level or protection required for the ecological significance of the area. a The 100 year floodplain is based on the last 100 years. It does not factor in climate change. As we have seen, flooding is dynamic. Today it is greater than 100 years ago. Tomorrow flooding will be even greater as we deal with climate change. Based on the experiences the past 100 years and climate change today, we know that the designated 100 year flood zone will become expanded over time. During this era of climate change, is the 100 year flood plain still relevant? Should the city rezone based on the 100 year flood plain? Most significantly the River and Creek Corridor overlay covers Commercial Area A and Residential Area E. Is it logical to consider these areas not suitable for development based on present and anticipated future conditions? MAP INFORMATION The City's Stormwater Division will provide information based on the Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM),an official Federal Emergency Management Administration (FEMA) outline of the floodplain areas. This information is available by calling or visiting the Stormwater Division, or accessing the City's Geographic Information System. The map information provided by the City is general in nature and is not considered a guaranteed determination. The mortgage lender is responsible for determining if a flood insurance policy is required for a loan. Local flood maps and additional information on flooding and property protection are available at the reference desk of the City's Main Library, located at 706 S.Jefferson St., and online through FEMA Flood Map Service Center. , , A.Rl+t x E ?"

Mountcastle President Chris Chittum Executive Director of Community Development and Placemaking Wendy W. Kendrick City of Roanoke President Elect Noel C. Taylor Municipal Building J. Ross Wimmer,CPA 215 Church Avenue Treasurer Roanoke, VA 24011 A.Sidney Barritt Ill, MD Dear Mr. Chittum, Secretary Colbert L. Boyd On behalf of the board of the Blue Ridge Land Conservancy, I'm writing to convey some Eva Morgan Hartmann thoughts regarding the development of the parcels identified in the City of Roanoke's Alan R. McPherson Susan E. McSwain Evans Spring Area Plan, adopted by City Council on April 15, 2013. Hunter W. Naff Janet Scheid Ann Bondurant Trinkle As the Roanoke region's only nonprofit land conservation organization, we have ADVISORY COMMITTEE partnered with the City of Roanoke on many occasions,whether it was helping secure Helen A. Burnett land for the Lick Run Greenway more than 20 years ago, or holding conservation Ruth T. Dickerson Broaddus C. easements on two of the gems in the city's magnificent park system, Carvins Cove Fitzpatrick Natural Reserve and Mill Mountain Park. In 2008, we honored the City of Roanoke with William Hunley Lowell F. lnhorn,MD our highest award, the A. Victor Thomas Environmental Stewardship Award, for its Janet Scheid conservation efforts. Fiona M.Tower STAFF David C. Perry I've served as chair of the Mill Mountain Advisory Board, and over the years, our board Executive Director has included members of City Council and numerous civic and business leaders from the Emily R.H. Bender City of Roanoke. We enjoy our strong relationship with the city, and from to time will Assistant Director weigh in on various city issues that intersect with our mission of land conservation. Tina L. Badger Project Manager One such issue is the development of the Evans Spring area. Evans Spring is a unique Kacie E.Shifflett resource within the city. Although we do not want to stand in the way of sensible Stewardship Specialist development of the Evans Springs area, and while some of the parcels in the city's plan are more suitable for development than others, we believe that any development of the Evans Spring area should only be undertaken with careful consideration of several points. tea The Lemon House 0 1305 Maple Ave.SW, Roanoke,VA 24016 Phone(540)985-0000 www.blueridgelandconservanc or - • Y• g We protect the lands and waters you love,forever. First and foremost is the issue of water quality. Evans Spring is a natural freshwater spring that feeds a small pond which drains into Lick Run. Unfortunately, Lick Run does not enjoy a natural path to its confluence with Tinker Creek in Southeast Roanoke. Much of the stream is "darklighted"or buried underground, including its course through upper Washington Park. From there to its juncture with Tinker Creek, Lick Run is largely confined to artificial channels, such as those adjacent to the rear of the Berglund Center, or concrete ditches such as those found adjoining the former Norfolk Southern rail yards along Campbell Ave. and Norfolk Ave. Any development of the properties adjoining Evans Spring and the adjacent pond has the potential to further degrade Lick Run and reduce its effectiveness as a natural community. Additional development in the Evans Spring area would likely force more stormwater more quickly into Lick Run, leading to more pollution from the city entering the Roanoke River. This runs contrary to the city's goals of reducing polluted runoff into the Roanoke River and its tributaries,which are carried out by the city's Stormwater division. Another point to consider is wildlife habitat. As one of the larger areas of open space in the city, many of the Evans Spring parcels provide valuable habitat for trees and plants, aquatic wildlife,birds and other species. Indeed, the Lick Run Greenway is a favorite spot for Roanoke-area birders, and many of these avian species roost, feed and reproduce in the Evans Spring natural community. In the last 20 years, Roanoke has invested heavily in marketing its outdoor amenities to help drive economic growth in the city. Development of the Evans Spring area which may degrade the natural community runs counter to the countless person-hours and massive financial investment the city has made not only to brand itself as a green,outdoors-friendly city, but to actually create the infrastructure to support outdoors-friendly and active lifestyles. The future extension of Lick Run Greenway beyond the Valley View Mall area is already designated to cross through the Evans Spring area on the Roanoke Valley Greenway Commission's 2018 Greenway Plan Network Map. Development of the Evans Spring area may impact the future of this popular greenway,which provides not only recreation but a vital connection from northwest Roanoke and downtown to shopping opportunities in and around Valley View Mall. In a similar vein, the role of the Evans Spring area in mitigating the city's urban heat island issue cannot be understated. The city spends large amounts of time and money planting trees and trying to increase the city's percentage of land under tree canopy. Northwest Roanoke has the least amount of tree canopy coverage in the city, and is also most susceptible to the urban heat island effect in the summer. The urban heat island creates a significant health crisis for the elderly, young and those with health problems exacerbated by high summer temperatures. • Data from the(now defunct) Greater Roanoke Valley Asthma and Air Quality Coalition showed that 18 percent of children in Roanoke have asthma. Tree cover plays an important role in reducing air pollution. Every measure should be taken to ensure that Roanoke does not thwart its own efforts to increase its tree canopy. Much has changed in Roanoke since the adoption of the Evans Spring Area Plan in 2013. There is much greater awareness among the citizens of the negative impacts of climate change, and much stronger interest in outdoor recreation and marketing the city as an outdoors destination. The city's Office of Sustainability has released its draft Climate Action Plan, which advocates for many climate goals and actions which are not consistent with developing the Evans Spring area. Please consider these points as you move forward with consultants and potential plans from property owners or developers regarding the Evans Spring area. If the Blue Ridge Land Conservancy can be of assistance in your deliberations,please do not hesitate to contact us. Sincerely, David C. Perry Executive Director cc: Mayor Sherman P.

Bob Clement <bclement24016@gmail.com> Tue, Jan 30, 2024 at 4:34 PM To: clerk@roanokeva.gov Cc: Spring Evans <friendsofevansspring@gmail.com> Good afternoon..... I hope this note finds you well. Please share this email with each City Council member in preparation of their next meeting regarding Evans Spring. Thank you so much!! Bob Dear Honorable Roanoke City Mayor and City Council Members: In November 2005, Roanoke City paid a little more than $4 million to purchase the 139-acre Countryside Golf Course, not to keep it as a golf course, or athletic fields, or urban agriculture, but to redevelop it for housing. Today almost 20 years later, high grass, scrub trees and weeds have replaced the once manicured fairways and putting greens.And since then, Roanoke City Council has failed to figure out how to turn their Countryside lemon into lemonade. Yes, they ended up with a master plan that included a little bit of everything, but that plan did not come to fruition, and almost 20 years later, the Countryside property continues to sit mostly vacant and underutilized. Fast forward to Evans Spring, a 150+acre swath of private properties comprised of a pristine watershed and natural forests.And with the blessing of Roanoke City Council, Roanoke City administration paid a consultant roughly $200,000 of taxpayer dollars to create a master plan complete with housing and commercial developments that once again, as with the Countryside Master Plan, does not have the support of those who live close by as well as many others residing in the city at large. Roanoke City Council needs to understand there are many economic benefits that our city would gain from purchasing the Evans Spring property and turning it into a well-planned urban forest instead of developing it commercially. By purchasing and preserving Evan's Spring, the city would be contributing to the environmental conservation effort as noted in their recently adopted Climate Action Plan and would also be protecting one of our city's natural resources for future generations to enjoy. Creating a well-planned urban forest through this mechanism would have numerous benefits for our environment, our public health, our local economy, and our community. These benefits include: 1. Tourism and Recreation:A well-planned urban forest would attract tourists and outdoor enthusiasts, thereby boosting our local economy. Visitors could engage in activities such as hiking, bird-watching, nature photography, and more. This would lead to increased spending on accommodations, dining, and local attractions, benefiting businesses in the area. The city could also potentially generate income from entrance fees, permits, and rentals. 2. Property Value and Real Estate: Well-planned urban forests are known to enhance property values in surrounding areas. The vision of preserving Evan's Spring as a well-planned urban forest would enhance the city's presence of green space and natural beauty making it more attractive to residents and potential homebuyers. This may lead to increased demand for housing, resulting in higher property values along with increased revenue from property taxes. 3. Environmental Conservation and Impact: Undeveloped forests and watershed properties have significant ecological value, provide habitat for wildlife, preserve biodiversity, and support clean air and water. Purchasing and preserving the Evans Spring property as a well-planned urban forest would help maintain the property's ecological balance, enhance the quality of Roanoke's environment, and contribute to the environmental conservation efforts as outlined in the city's Climate Action Plan. Urban forests provide numerous environmental benefits such as carbon sequestration and stormwater management. Urban forests also improve air quality by absorbing pollutants, reducing noise, pollution, and mitigating the urban heat island effect. They also help in capturing and retaining rainwater, reducing stormwater runoff, and preventing soil erosion. Protecting and conserving watershed properties helps ensure the maintenance of our water quality, regulation of our water flows, especially downstream, and preservation of our aquatic ecosystems. This can help mitigate the impact of climate change by preventing flooding and improving our city's overall water resource management. Protecting these aquatic ecosystems can also save the city money by reducing the need for additional expensive infrastructure projects and associated maintenance necessary to commercially develop the property. 4. Health and Well-being: Well-planned urban forests offer a green space for residents to engage in physical activities like hrhi ,'/m it onnolernmhnailhi/I/?ik_9r17n26n1.1f SR,view-ni onrc 211&nerm nc_thread_I`17R95S274(135fi45fl-ISS&cimnl—rnso_f•17R955274(nS64503i5Rcc!mnl=. I hi1/Z4, I U:34 AM Umai1-tvans Spring jogging, walking, and cycling.Access to nature has been linked to numerous health and well-being benefits. By acquiring the Evan's Spring forests and watershed properties, the city could enhance the quality of life for our residents by providing spaces for relaxation, exercise, connection with nature, and each other. This in turn would contribute to improve mental and physical health outcomes for our community.Additionally, trees and vegetation in urban forests help filter harmful pollutants in the air leading to improved air quality and better respiratory health for residents. 5. Job Creation: The preservation and maintenance of well-planned urban forests can create jobs in fields like forestry, landscaping, and environmental science. 6. Education and Research:A well-planned urban forest can serve as an outdoor classroom and research site for educational institutions and scientific research organizations. This can attract students, researchers, and funding, contributing to the local economy through educational programs, conferences, and collaborative research projects. 7. Biodiversity Conservation: Well-planned urban forests conserve important habitats for a variety of plant and animal species, helping to promote bio-diversity in otherwise heavily developed urban areas. By creating a well- planned urban forest, Roanoke can preserve and protect these habitats, ensuring the long-term survival of native species for future generations to enjoy and appreciate. 8. Climate Change Adaption and Mitigation: Well-planned urban forests play a crucial role in mitigating the impacts of climate change. Trees absorb carbon dioxide, a major greenhouse gas, and store carbon helping to reduce the carbon footprint of the city, all components of the city's recently adopted Climate Action Plan. They also provide shade, reducing the need for air-conditioning and lowering energy consumption.Additionally, urban forests act as a natural buffer against extreme weather events such as heat waves and heavy rainfall by reducing urban island effects and absorbing excess rainwater. 9. Community Engagement and Social Cohesion:A well planned urban forest provides opportunities for community engagement and social interaction. They serve as gathering spaces for community events, recreational activities, and educational programs. The presence of an urban forest can foster a sense of pride and ownership among residents leading to increased community, cohesion and social well-being. In many countries and cities around the world, there is a growing understanding of the importance of the natural ecology and benefits that well-planned urban forests provide. Well-planned urban forests have proven to be an investment that • pays off in the long run contributing significantly to the economic health, well-being and long-term sustainability of a locality. By choosing to preserve the Evans Spring property as a well-planned urban forest, Roanoke would enjoy the economic benefits from doing so from increased direct and indirect revenues from tourism, enhanced property values, lower energy costs, cost savings through ecosystem services, improved health outcomes, educational opportunities, conservation of biodiversity, and more, all while boosting the happiness, health and well-being of Roanoke's citizens. Posted on Roanoke's All-American website page, it states"Roanoke's civic infrastructure is focused on making a "collective impact" enabling our community to effectively address complex issues by employing grassroots, collaborative, data driven, evidence-based and comprehensive framework. This approach has established nationally recognized programs such as an early childhood learning initiative, addressing the opioid crisis, and enhancing access to health care. We utilize a Whole-of-Government Approach that combines the efforts of multiple City of Roanoke departments, community members, and new and existing partnerships to offer coordinated wraparound services. City of Roanoke leaders from government, healthcare, and nonprofit agencies practice more effective resident engagement collectively creating better conditions of health and well-being." I hope Roanoke City Council will support the effective resident (and constituent) engagement efforts set forth to preserve Evan's Spring in becoming a well-planned, world-class urban forest. Doing so will create a refreshing glass of lemonade for the city, helping to quench our thirst for a fulfilling and healthy environment, promoting our health and well-being, conserving our biodiversity, creating social cohesion and engagement, enhancing real estate values, and mitigating the adverse affects of climate change rather than create another lemon consisting of commercial box stores in an era of online shopping surrounded by housing in the shade of a busy and noisy interstate highway. Thanks for reading and otherwise hope all is well with you!

It has also been the subject of many contentious discussions around private property rights, environmental benefits this area brings, and who gets to be involved in determining if and what kind of development should happen in this area. We, the Friends of Evans Spring, have noticed that many who talk about the proposed development of this area assume that the broader community does not have the right to determine what private property owners can do with their land --whether they want to keep the land in its current state, or sell it to the highest bidder to pave it over for big box stores, or subdivide it into lots for single family homes. This is false. Urban planning -- something that all cities engage in, gives us the tools to come together as a community to decide what we believe are the "highest and best uses" for individual parcels of land, even if those properties are privately owned. One tool of urban planning --zoning regulations-- is what prevents your nextdoor neighbor from waking up one day and selling their land to someone who wants to put a gas station on their property, or a trash incinerator, or some other land use that would have harmful effects on the broader community. Urban planning is also what enabled the City of Roanoke (and many other cities) to "take" privately owned land through eminent domain to plan large infrastructure projects, such as the 581 highway and the Berglund Convention Center, forcibly displacing hundreds of families during a period called "Urban Renewal," and destroying the vibrant African American community of Gainsboro. The African American community still feels the negative consequences of these decisions today. The above examples show that the tools of urban planning can be used to both preserve livability and health of a neighborhood, and to destroy it. What determines how the tools of urban planning are used are the values we choose to underlie our collective decisions. Fortunately, the City of Roanoke has clearly laid out the values that it uses to guide these collective decisions. More on this in a moment. First, let's talk about Evans Spring. Evans Spring is an environmental oasis in our city. Within the Evans Spring area is a rare Appalachian upland wetland habitat; the vast majority of wetland habitat in Virginia is located in the Coastal Plain areas, and only 6% is at high elevation, as the wetlands of Evans Spring are. This is an important habitat for multiple threatened or endangered species such as the Dixie Cavern salamander (?). The forested land acts as a sponge and water purification system, buffering more developed areas of the city from severe flooding. The forest also cools our city. The "urban heat island effect" refers to the phenomenon that cities tend to be hotter than their surrounding urban areas. Within cities, there are also intra-urban heat heat islands. Temperatures are hotter where large, heat-holding infrastructures are located (roads, overpasses, etc), where development density is high, and where there is little vegetation, tree canopy, and shade. More people die of heat related causes each year than any other weather-related cause (including hurricanes and flooding). In Roanoke, research by Carilion Clinic has revealed that heat waves were associated with 10 - 12 additional Emergency Department visits each day between 2010 and 2017. And, with global climate change projections, the number of heat wave days in Roanoke could more than triple by 2030, compared to the period between 1961 - 1990. The Evans Spring area is currently estimated to be 5 - 10 F cooler than the nearby Melrose-Ruby neighborhood on a summer day. Melrose-Rugby is one of the hottest neighborho ds in the City of Roanoke, with temperatures that can be 15 degrees hotter than more vegetated, higher elevation areas of the city. Residents in this neighborhood are also particularly vulnerable to the impacts of higher temperatures -- residents live in older buildings with poor weatherization, many do not have or cannot afford to run air conditioning, may have underlying health conditions that are exacerbated by heat, and are dealing with many other social stressors -- including high levels of gun violence, poverty, and lack of transportation options. Research shows that all of these stressors are made worse by heat. Given that research shows that contiguous forested area is important to mitigating the effects of the urban heat island effect, Evans Spring is therefore a very important cooling buffer for the city, and especially for the Melrose-Rugby neighborhood. So, how do we decide what the "highest and best" use for the Evans Spring area properties is? Today, the science is much clearer than even ten years ago on the environmental and health benefits of preserved open space and forests within urban areas. Developing this area would be akin to increasing exposure to flooding and heat for residents of Melrose-Rugby, who have already borne the brunt of negative impacts of past urban planning decisions such as Urban Renewal. Fortunately, the City of Roanoke has very clearly laid out the values that allow us to learn from and atone for the unjust practices of the past. The City's Comprehensive Plan City Plan 2040, officially adopted by City Council in 2020, the first three listed themes that guide collective decision making are: Interwoven Equity, Healthy Community, Harmony with Nature. Preserving Evans Spring and its ecosystem functions completely align with these stated values. Evans Spring and access to green space, cooling and flood protection is needed in Melrose-Rugby, a neighborhood that lacks in these services compared to other areas of the city, is an equity issue. Protection against the known impacts of heat on health is a health issue. Preservation of these functions allows us to live in resilient communities that are in harmony with nature. The City of Roanoke is also about to officially adopt an update to its Climate Action Plan, which specifically identifies needing to work with citizens to undertake proactive planning to deal with risks associated with rising temperatures in the most vulnerable neighborhoods. Just as none of us today would think that a trash incinerator should be located in a residential neighborhood, our increased understanding of the risks of urban heat and flooding and the role that natural lands play now make it common sense to protect this priceless piece of intact forested land, located directly adjacent to one of the neighborhoods most needing it. Lastly, we, the Friends of Evans Spring, are not anti-development; rather, we want to be more intentional and holistic in the kind of development that occurs in Northwest Roanoke. Urban planning with the voices of the community can bring us toward the kind of development that will increase livability and health in our neighborhoods. We are interested in development that supports walkability and transportation access, whole neighborhoods and diverse mixes of uses that support healthy communities and local businesses. We believe that this kind of development can be achieved within already urbanized areas of Northwest to promote economic development and livability, without disrupting the current ecosystem function of the Evans Spring area. We are currently working with professionals and researchers to better understand a proactive, rather than reactive, community visioning process. The first priority listed in Roanoke's City Plan 2040 is Trust. The plan says: "Roanoke recognizes that past interactions have eroded trust in certain communities. Policies for trust focus on community healing and government accountability." To truly build trust with the Northwest Community will require City officials to listen and give the community the time and space to meaningfully engage with this important development decision, rather than to rush ahead with claims of"compromise." If we lead with the values we say we believe in and listen in earnest to the voices that have not been listened to in the past, then urban planning tools can help us realize the more equitable future we all want to see in Roanoke. 7 SIERRA Roanoke Group CLUB of the Virginia Chapter POSITION STATEMENT ON EVANS SPRING DEVELOPMENT PLANNING THE SIERRA CLUB, ROANOKE GROUP The 150-acre site referred to as "Evans Spring" is the largest undeveloped area in the Roanoke City. It is privately owned, except for 4.5 acres that the City owns as a water retention/flood mitigation feature. It is again being considered for development including for housing, commerce, office space, recreation and access from Interstate 581. Further plans await input of local residents, the findings of an appointed consultant, possible zoning changes, and other pertinent details, processes which will occur in future months. Current state and federal regulations determining what can, and can't be done in wetlands and floodplains, will make development challenging, and in some cases unlikely or not possible. The site of former Fairland Lake, drained about sixty years ago, now includes the very productive Evans Spring, feeding several connected ponds and very dramatic wetlands. Wetlands are protected, making this estimated 20-acre site unavailable for development, but a priceless asset for the City of Roanoke.* We propose this site be developed as a nature park, with boardwalks, such as those at Roanoke County South County Library. Adding Interpretive signage and a nature center provides opportunities for education and inspiration for visitors. With wetland protection having occurred fairly recently, many wetlands have been drained and developed over, or turned into bogs by livestock. This wetland can be turned into an accessible attraction that enhances the surrounding neighborhood, preserves native plant species, and provides wildlife habitat. Endorsed by the Executive Committee, April 12, 2023 *Note: Evans Spring is an isolated rather than a tidal wetland. Virginia regulated isolated wetlands with its adoption of the Nontidal Wetlands Act of 2001. The Act places responsibility for regulating isolated wetlands with the Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ), acting through the DEQ's Virginia Water Protection Program. Anyone wanting to develop in an isolated wetland needs a permit from the DEQ and might also need a permit from the US Army Corps of Engineers.

The Sierra Club is a grassroots-driven organization of over a million members nationwide. Founded in 1892, the Sierra Club is the nation's largest and oldest organization focused on environmental issues. As one of the 50 chapters in the U.S., the Virginia Chapter Sierra Club advocates for a Virginia where all people may enjoy our natural treasures, access clean air and water, and thrive in a healthy community. At over 20,000 members strong, the Virginia Chapter coordinates action to promote climate solutions and oppose projects and policies that put the interests of polluters above the needs of communities. The Virginia Chapter aims to achieve a livable future for all through an inclusive, justice-centered movement. The Chapter is made up of 11 Groups with the Roanoke Group of some 1,000 members representing Bath, Allegheny, Botetourt, Rockbridge, Roanoke, Franklin, Patrick, Henry, Bedford, and Amherst counties and the cities of Roanoke, Salem, and Lynchburg. if '-'1' '{. SIEkRA SAVE CLUB FOUNDED fA42 EVANS SPRING WETLAND . find uz an F eft Roanoke Group Sierra Club https://sites.google.com/site/roanokesierra/home Statement of Richard Light Evans Spring Presented to the City Council - February 20 2024 My name is Richard Light. I am a resident of Roanoke City. I am a member of Trout Unlimited. Tonight I am representing the Roanoke Valley Chapter of Trout Unlimited. As a child I recall many hot summer days when my friends and I went swimming at Fairland Lake Club. Evans Spring was the source of this cold water.Today, most children living in the city do not have the opportunity to fish. We advocate for a fishery in the city. Our chapter supports the preservation of Evans Spring as a nature preserve. Trout Unlimited has 400 local chapters nationwide. We have twelve chapters in Virginia. Our mission is conserving, protecting, and restoring coldwater fisheries for wild and native trout. The Virginia Council represents members of twelve Virginia chapters.The Council supports the mission of local chapters in the areas of conservation, education, and advocacy. Our Roanoke Valley Chapter has an agreement with the Roanoke City School System to place 40-gallon aquariums in fifth grade classes. We place eggs in the tank and as the fish hatch and grow, we visit the classrooms to present educational programs particularly promoting clean water and conservation. When the fish reach stocking size we take the students to stock the fish in the Roanoke River. Lick Run Creek is an impaired stream. Runoff from Williamson Road,Valley View Mall, the airport, and 1-581 flows into Lick Run Creek then into Tinker Creek and on to the Roanoke River. Water runoff into the creek far exceeds the capacity of the creek. The structure of the creek as a fisheries habitat is destroyed. The water quality is most affected from runoff from areas of impervious surfaces. It is undesirable for fisheries. Runoff directly into the creek from the proposed "Big Box" store and its 1000 parking spaces will further exacerbate the runoff impacts and send more runoff down the creek into downtown. Without mitigation, downtown flooding of will increase. The Friends of Evans Spring propose integrating recreational opportunities with storm water structures to restore Lick Run Creek and control the runoff into downtown. Stream structures slow the flow of water downstream by spreading water upstream into constructed marshes to infiltrate the ground. If the "Big Box" store is built there will no longer be sufficient area for Statement of Richard Light Evans Spring Presented to the City Council - February 20 2024 Page 2 future flood mitigation. Stream structures increase downtown businesses economic profit by reducing flooding. We are also deeply concerned that this contract was awarded with the sole basis to increase economic returns the city. No biological evaluation was completed to determine the impacts on this very diverse ecosystem. Evans Spring is a unique, highly diverse ecosystem. How can you make a determination of the highest and best use of this property for the citizens of Roanoke without this information? My name is Hunter Hartley. I live in NW in Melrose-Rugby and I am a Howard University School of Law Graduate. I'll be speaking about the relationship between heat and community health. Roanoke City's website says "In the course of a year, excessive heat causes more deaths and health problems than all the natural disasters combined." It says that "In Roanoke,the density of urban buildings, roads, and parking lots coupled with lack of tree canopy make temperatures higher than in outlying areas during the day and night. This causes increased energy consumption and higher power bills, elevated levels of air pollutants and harmful ozone levels, compromised human health and comfort, and impaired water quality." This cycle is well understood. More heat means more energy consumption, which means more pollution, more negative health impacts, and even more heat. But Roanoke City tells us "There are ways to slow down and prevent urban heat islands, such as planting urban trees and reducing hard surfaces. These solutions not only cools city streets,they can also reduce and filter the polluted stormwater runoff that impairs our streams and waterways" But Developing Evans Spring is the exact opposite of these recommendations. Development increases hard surfaces and removed urban trees. This deadly cycle, fed by developing Evans Spring, is linked to Roanoke's history of racism, and urban renewal The Roanoke City website says " More and more research is showing that the hottest neighborhoods today are the same neighborhoods once redlined under racially discriminatory home lending practices in the mid-1900s. These neighborhoods often remain lower income and communities of color, with fewer trees and open spaces, exposing residents who need to walk or use public transportation to dangerous heat. In Roanoke specifically,the heat island study done by CAPA found that previously redlined communities have air temperatures that are 7 - 10 degrees F hotter than non-redlined areas in the City. " So not only are Roanoke's poorest communities saddled with higher energy bills to stay cool, if they even have air conditioning, but they suffer more physically from the heat and pollutants that result. But unfortunately, there is more. There is also a link between excessive heat and increased gun violence. The gun violence problem that plagues Roanoke City should not be viewed as isolated from these troubling historic and present day patterns. 113 If Quoting the city's own website on the heat island effect is sufficient to explain why we must preserve Evans Spring,this should give decision makers a moment of pause to reflect on the mixed messaging they are sending out. We invite the city to work with its communities to build a livable healthy future together. A future were the right of our community to a healthy environment is not second guessed or an after though. A future where those most impacted are not relegated to "compromise"for the sake of supposed economic benefit. That economic benefits never seem to trickle down. Instead, we get the floods and deluge of negative health impacts. Environmental Impact of Evans Spring on Health Submitted by William Lemley, 044 Social Determinants of Health: Carilion Report: Carilion Clinics Roanoke Valley Community Health Assessment Final Report 8/31/2021 This report illustrates some of the relevant issues impacting the community's health in Carillon Medical Center's service area: • Roanoke City (27.5%) • Roanoke County (19%) • Franklin County (8.8%) • Botetourt County (7.4%) • Salem City (5.6%) • Bedford County (5.1%) • Craig County (0.7%) The study notes that higher rates of chronic diseases, cancers and many socioeconomic factors exist in the above service area when compared to the Commonwealth of Virginia as a whole. Roanoke, VA specifically has the highest rates of adult asthma in the service area. It also has higher rates of lung cancer in the service area, second only to Salem, VA. Black residents in Roanoke County have a higher incidence of lung cancer compared to people reporting white race. These diseases are known to be adversely affected by environmental and socioeconomic factors. As noted in their assessment, "the physical environment plays a large role in health outcomes. It contributes to wide range factors, including healthy behaviors like physical activity, and health outcomes like asthma." The report looked at air and water quality via the Respiratory Hazard Index which reports the non-cancer respiratory hazard index scores where scores of 1.0 or more indicate a potential for adverse health effects. Roanoke City's score was 1.78, highest in the Carillon service area. Narrative: Urban green space is persistently reported to foster a diverse range of social benefits that could improve the health of city dwellers by combating urban illnesses, specifically lowering exposure to air pollution to reduce respiratory disease. There are three paths that link urban green spaces to respiratory health. First, the urban green spaces could alleviate air pollution. Second, these spaces breed abundant physical activity. And finally, green landscapes can alleviate psychological pressure and depression by providing social places.' The effects of green spaces on asthma remain more controversial. One study has shown that frequent visits to green spaces reduced use of prescription drugs for asthma, depression, anxiety, insomnia, and high blood pressure.' Several conflicting factors are involved in the association between urban green spaces and the risk of respiratory health conditions such as asthma. For example, urban vegetation might produce allergic pollen, which can exacerbate asthma, but is also associated with reductions in risk factors such as stress and obesity.' The prognosis of asthma is affected by a complex interplay of environment, genetic, and social factors including stress.4 Cole Wesselman, a Fellow at the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), in a 2022 study noted that physical and mental health have been shown to improve with exposure and access to green spaces with higher levels of wellbeing and lower perceived stress. Wesselman also noted a 2020 study from South Korea which showed a greater amount of surrounding green space was inversely correlated with rates of atopic dermatitis and allergic rhinitis. Although high densities of allergic trees and air pollutants increase rates of local severe tree pollen events, exposures to green spaces with low allergenicity were associated with a protective effect against severe allergy. Replacing pollen-producing (male) trees with those that produce seeds or fruit (female), such as willows, maples, and ash and planting species with low-to-moderate pollen production might improve local green spaces without making the air worse for people with allergies.5 Physical activity in neighborhoods with high levels of greenery is three times higher than in areas of low level greenery. Obesity rates in high greenery areas are about 40% less than in low-level greenery communities.'bid Urban trees and green spaces help reduce urban heat island effects of manmade infrastructure, keep more carbon from being released, reduce flood risk, improve water and soil quality, and support wildlife diversity. Trees carry out a biological function called sequestration, the process that captures and stores atmospheric carbon dioxide, a gas responsible for significant global climate change. Adequate urban tree cover helps control storm water by preventing high rates of rainwater falling through the canopy and efficiently manages high volumes of water, effectively store storm water runoff, reducing costs to build engineered storm water management systems.'b'd According to the World Health Organization in 2016, urban green spaces can promote mental and physical health, and reduce morbidity and mortality in urban residents by providing psychological relaxation and stress alleviation, stimulating social cohesion, supporting physical activity, and reducing exposure to air pollutants, noise and excessive heat.' Finally, a 2015 report from NIH: Risk Management Healthcare Policy addressed the value of urban green spaces in promoting healthy living and wellbeing. The report states that urban green spaces provide environmental benefits by negating heat, offsetting greenhouse gas emissions, and attenuating storm water. Green spaces also have direct health benefits as spaces for physical activity and social interaction, and allowing psychological restoration to take place.' Urban green spaces have been shown to maintain and increase property values. There have been reductions in gun crime and vandalism following greening of vacant urban lands with residents reporting feeling less stressed as a result. There is also increased } physical activity as residents are more inclined to exercise in a cleaner, greener and safer environment.'b'd Green spaces offer beneficial associations with health outcomes, such as cardiovascular and respiratory mortality through opportunities for physical activity, recovery from stress and attention fatigue, and facilitation of social contact.'b'd In conclusion, there is an abundance of evidence in scientific and medical literature supporting the positive physical, mental, and social health benefits provided by urban green spaces such as can be found at Evans Spring.

Even within the same city, certain neighborhoods can be much hotter, and this warming effect can make cities 10 - 15 degrees F hotter than surrounding areas. Local Impacts Heat Islands and Equity Ways to Help The urban heat island effect is a real and serious problem right here in Roanoke and will continue to worsen with the effects of climate change. According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Climate Explorer, Roanoke will experience higher temperatures with more intense rainfall events. In a period of official weather data extending from 1912 to 2019, nine of the ten warmest summers for average daily low temperature have occurred since 2005.July 2020 was the warmest month on record for average daily low temperature, at 70.8 degrees F, and August ended a record 19-day streak in which daily temperatures never dropped below 70 degrees F in Roanoke. In Roanoke, the density of urban buildings, roads, and parking lots coupled with lack of tree canopy make temperatures higher than in outlying areas during the day and night.This causes increased energy consumption and higher power bills, elevated levels of air pollutants and harmful ozone levels, compromised human health and comfort, and impaired water quality. You can read more about this in The State of our Waters 2021 report. Roanoke also has an older housing stock and a population with high rates of health conditions such as COPD and asthma that can exacerbate heat stress effects. In the course of a year, excessive heat causes more deaths and health problems than all the natural disasters combined. But the future doesn't have to be so hot.There are ways to slow down and prevent urban heat islands, such as planting urban trees and reducing hard surfaces.These solutions not only cools city streets,they can also reduce and filter the polluted stormwater runoff that impairs our streams and waterways. Check out the third tab in this section to find more ways to help! Rising temperatures could cause thousands to tens of thousands of additional premature deaths in the United States each year by century's end, making heat one of the deadliest impacts of climate change. But not everyone will suffer equally. Climate-induced weather events have the most profound impact on those who have the least access to financial resources, historically underserved communities, and those struggling with additional health conditions. 5 Li Select Language V Extreme heat is creating health and safety threats, especially for older adults, people experiencing homelessness, and those whose homes lack air conditioning. More and more research is showing that the hottest neighborhoods today are the same neighborhoods once redlined under racially discriminatory home lending practices in the mid-1900s.These neighborhoods often remain lower income and communities of color,with fewer trees and open spaces, exposing residents who need to walk or use public transportation to dangerous heat. In Roanoke specifically,the heat island study done by CAPA found that previously redlined communities have air temperatures that are 7 - 10 degrees F hotter than non- redlined areas in the City. To improve resilience to future extreme heat events, cities can incorporate heat island reduction strategies such as: o Trees and Vegetation - Increasing tree and vegetation cover lowers surface and air tem eratures byprovidingshade and ` P = �x,.. k• cooling through evapotranspiration. Urban trees can cool a city «' 3 ' .a .ter up to 10 degrees while also removing pollutants from the air x '' and water. o Green Roofs - Growing a vegetative layer (plants, shrubs, grasses, and/or trees) on a rooftop reduces temperatures of the rt roof surface and the surrounding air and improves stormwater management.The City government building on Church Street has a green roof that shades and protects the bottom level (pictured at the bottom right). o Cool Roofs - Installing a cool roof- one made of materials or coatings that significantly reflect sunlight and heat away from a building - reduces roof temperatures, increases the comfort of occupants, and lowers energy demand. o Cool Pavements - Using paving materials on sidewalks, parking lots, and streets that remain cooler than conventional pavements (by reflecting more solar energy and enhancing water evaporation) not only cools the pavement surface and surrounding air, but can also reduce stormwater runoff and improve nighttime visibility. o Shade Structures-Whether it is from a tree or not, any natural or manmade shade structure helps reduce the amount of heat and warming. o Cooling Centers- For those who do not have reliable access to air conditioning, a community cooling center where people can meet and cool off during hot days is extremely beneficial. Select Language V Roanoke's Heat Island Mapping Study With higher temperatures and increased rainfall guaranteed in our future, it is extremely important to address the heat island effect in Roanoke. Due to this information,the City's Office of Sustainability partnered with Climate Adaptation Planning Analytics (CAPA) to create a heat island mapping study within the City of Roanoke. As illustrated in the map below, it's very clear how dense urban surfaces with no vegetation retain much more heat than a shaded area. To learn more and use our interactive map, click here.

According to the Roanoke City 2040 Plan •Page 11 -Roanoke recognizes the need for more thoughtful land development, that outdoor recreation is vital to the regional economy, and policies for outdoor recreation focus on protecting natural assets. •Page 63—Trees provide an array of services including water absorption, air filtration,temperature control, as well as aesthetic benefits. •Page 57—Water Resource Management-While most of the increased rainfall can be attributed to changing weather patterns, flooding is exacerbated by increasing impervious surfaces like parking lots, causing runoff to concentrate much faster into drainage systems and natural watercourses leading to higher peak flows and flooding. We recognize the gravity of the situation before us. We hope and trust that you do, too. In the context of the travesty of urban renewal and the residual distrust that still permeates the African American community 50 years later, we believe the decisions made here related to Evans Spring will be the key factor in establishing trust or forever losing the confidence of the African-American community. We, the Friends of Evans Spring propose protecting this area in its natural state as a city-owned nature park; an urban green space with walking and biking trails, and extending the Lick Run Greenway to "Fairland Lake" via boardwalks. The Sierra Club recommends Evans Spring be developed as a nature park, with boardwalks, adding interpretive signage and a nature center and concludes by saying, "This wetland can be turned into an accessible attraction that enhances the surrounding neighborhood, preserves native plant species, and provides wildlife habitat. " According to the Lick Run Watershed Master Plan, the Evans Spring Area should be prioritized for preservation and riparian buffering, and the economic and ecological benefit is likely to outweigh the cost of restoration and flood mitigation if this land is developed. virginia sweet s if.

I think it is especially timely given the closeness of the city planning commission's and city council's plans to vote on a Master Plan this next month to guide Evans Spring's future. I have been confused about how the official city process regarding the development of Evans Spring works and where we are in the process. I wanted to know the purpose of all these work sessions, public hearings, planning commission public and private meetings, council public and private meetings, etc., what a city council vote to approve this Evans Spring Master Plan at its February 20 meeting would mean, and how the public can influence that decision. To learn how he understood these things, I spoke with Wayne Leftwich, the Planning Manager of the City Planning Department, for over an hour. He said the planning commissioners and city councilors are being asked whether they want to include this Evans Spring Master Plan in the city's Comprehensive Plan 2040. They are not being asked to upzone any of the land or approve any development project at this time but they want to be prepared should/when that happens. Adopting this Master Plan empowers the city to tell the land owners and potential developers what the city wants/requires any future large-scale development to look like. Without it, or something like it, considerably different kinds of development could occur which could cause the neighborhood/friends of Evans Spring to lose many of the things we say we want. This Master Plan includes: • if constructed, a future interchange access road from 581 would not be allowed to run through the neighborhood, • there must be housing that would meet some of the city's acute housing needs, • the housing would be compatible with the houses in the area, • no houses would be taken though the homeowners could sell their homes if they chose to, • there would be a neighborhood hub with opportunities for some area small businesses to establish themselves, • there must be significant protection for the spring and watershed and repair of the Lick Run Creek, • there must be environmentally sound infrastructure to deal with water runoff, etc. Wayne said the plan before Council updates the 2013 ES Area Plan, is compatible with many elements of the city's 2040 Comprehensive Plan, and meets the criteria of other strategic policies and guidelines the city has adopted such as the city's five-year capital budget, and the parks and recreation master plan. City officials are obliged to make decisions consistent with those policies and directives. [Although he noted two important complications/considerations: 1. Since the city council makes city policy, though it would be difficult, a future heavily business-friendly council could override many of these directives and authorize a development that included more large-scale commercial businesses and a road running through the neighborhood, etc. and 2. Since Virginia law gives landowners and developers certain development rights, even under the current zoning, Evans Spring landowners could develop Evans Spring more modestly. Either kind of development could mean the neighborhood would lose some/many/most? of the protections the proposed Evans Spring Master Plan includes.] To keep Evans Spring from being developed entirely, Wayne thought someone like the Friends of Evans Spring would need to buy the property and give it to someone like the Land Conservancy who could put it in a conservation easement or make it a nature preserve. That would be consonant with the city's stated vision and policy but that would take a lot of money. The city is not likely to buy it now because that is not part of its stated vision for the area and their policy directives do not call for them to do that. For the city to change those policies, someone would have to officially_propose/ etp ition/ask the city council to change its directives regarding Evans Spring and embrace an alternative Evans Spring Area Master Plan that would focus on the purchase of Evans Spring for conservation/recreation purposes to be included in the Comprehensive Plan 2040 . Related policy documents like the parks and recreation plan, and the five-year capital budget plan, would need to be amended accordingly. On another occasion, city planner, Katharine Gray, told me city officials can better give matters before them like this proper consideration if, rather than sharing their thoughts and requests with them only during the public hearing, the public sent in their proposals to them well ahead of time. Accordingly, I would suggest we send in the Friends of Evans Spring petition well before the planning commission and city council are due to meet in February where those officials will vote on the consultants' Evans Spring Master Plan.

To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an email to Issues to Present to City Council Regarding the Master Plan for Evans Spring Issues with the development plans for Evans Spring that Friends of Evans Spring : opposition to development by neighborhood residents, environmental economic Neighborhood Opposition to Development Bill Sweet summarizes neighborhood concerns about development very well on pages 5 and 6 of his summary. It should be emphasized that most residents at the.March 9th meeting at Williams Memorial Church wanted no development. The problems residents of the neighborhood foresee from development are • Increased danger to pedestrians and bike riders in the neighborhood due to increased traffic on substandard streets, • Increased heat from cutting down trees and installing large areas of pavement, • Increased noise from traffic, increased distraction from night lighting on businesses, and increased trash in the neighborhood from business areas. We should emphasize : Traffic noise from 1581 can already be heard in the Evans Spring neighborhood. Options 1, 2 and 3 - completing the interchange, cutting down the trees that provide some buffer from the noise and installing so much pavement, will make this noise much worse. Only Option 4, the only option without the interchange completion will not increase that noise. Option 4 would increase traffic through the neighborhood for the new housing but not nearly as much as the other options. Did anyone else notice, a small diagram of Option 4 appears on p 18, but there is large diagram for Option 4 as there are for the other options. Concerns About Increased Traffic Area residents expressed great concern about traffic in 2013 too. Page 24 of the 2013 Evans Spring Area Plan noted "Perhaps the most highly voiced concern among citizens during the planning process has been increases in the volume and speed of traffic on their street." The streets around the Evans Spring Area are substandard and should have been upgraded a long time ago. The 2013 Evans Spring Area Plan also noted "Many streets in the area surrounding Evans Spring were built to suburban standards (pavement only) which are today considered substandard because they support only vehicular mobility. Such streets should be upgraded to include curb, gutter, sidewalk, street trees in grassed planting strips. Such improvements may also involve adjusting the pavement width and geometry of the street. The goal of these street improvements would be to provide for a comfortable pedestrian experience and design that would discourage vehicle speeds above the standard residential speed limit of 25 mph." But they streets have not been upgraded. And there no plans to upgrade them have been mentioned throughout this whole process. So the city wants to increase traffic to the area on these substandard streets. This will be dangerous to the residents of the area. The 2013 Evans Spring Development Plan shows beautiful designs for streets with sidewalks and bike lanes separated from traffic by green strips with trees. The Plan says new streets will be designed to these standards. But there are no plans for upgrading existing streets in the Evans Spring area. The updates to the Master Plan presented in June and November included numbers for the increased traffic in large font. The report (Jan 11) does not include that page. The traffic impact chart that appeared in updates is on page 30 but it is much smaller. I don't think city council members have taken the time to study that chart. We need to tell city council how much more traffic the development options will bring to Andrews Road and 19th Street, the two streets of most concern to residents. On Cove Road/Andrews Road from Lafayette to 19th St Options 1 and 2, 6600 more car trips per day Option 3, 4400 more road trips per day Option 4, 1200 more car trips per day On 19th Street Options 1 and 2, 9200 more car trips per day Option 3, 4000 more road trips per day Option 4, 1100 more car trips per day The increased traffic from Options 1, 2, and 3 are an incredible burden to place on this neighborhood with streets not designed for this level of traffic. In Options 1, 2 and 3, the 581 Interchange is connected to Landbay A, with a large building and large parking lot are shown, and Landbay B, with multi-family housing and a commercial area. There is no connection from the 581 interchange to the housing development bordered by Andrews Road and Norris Drive NW. This satisfies the residents request that there is no link from 581 into the neighborhood. NO there is no link, but all the traffic from the interchange will pass right by the commercial area in Landbay B and very close to the housing units planned for that area. So no traffic from the 581 interchange will go through that area but all the noise and air pollution will. Environmental Issues Many Friends of Evans Spring members are working on the environmental issues. The only thing I want to add is that we should be sure to refer to the diagrams of Options 1, 2 and 3, and highlight the acres and acres of trees that will be cut down and the very large areas of pavement this development will add to already hot NW Roanoke. And the runoff from these paved areas will go down steep slopes into Lick Run. Just looking at the diagram, one can imagine all the water from a heavy rain washing off the parking lot in Landbay A straight into Lick Run. And of course, water washing off a parking lot will have gas and oil leaked from cars, and trash, which will seriously pollute that stream. Even more alarming, it came out in the Planning Commission that Costco might want to consider locating in Landbay A, including gas pumps, more toxic runoff into Lick run. Buffer zones will not stop polluted runoff from eventually reaching Evans Spring and Lick Run. Economic Issues Questions about the claimed economic benefits: Is there a market for that much commercial space ? What is the retail vacancy rate in Roanoke right now ? There are already 7 or 8 large hotels in the area near 1581 and Hershberger. Is there demand for another hotel in an area in this area ? What is the occupancy rate for the 7 or 8 hotels already in that area ? Will the city actually realize the revenue promised by hotel occupancy taxes ? Page 8 of the report "The local office market is struggling with very high vacancy rates and is not likely to play a large role at the subject property." But office space is included in General Recommendations for Usage for Landbay B. Allstate is trying to lease office space in there building off of 181 in Salem. How is that going ? Are they filling up their vacant space ? Why build a large commercial building and parking lot in Landbay A when Sears is sitting vacant right across 1581 ? The city council may argue that a developer will not build hotel, retail and big box space if they don't think they can fill it. We can hope that's true. The Labor Income projected from 1359 jobs the consultants claim the development will bring is $680.2 million over 20 years. $680.2 million divided by 20 years is of labor income per year divided by 1359 jobs is an annual income of $ 25,026/year which is barely a living wage for one person. So at least they are not claiming that the retail, hotel and office jobs that might be created will be great jobs. The Value Added Section explanation says, "Value Added -Value added consists of compensation of employees, taxes on production and imports less subsidies." Isn't "compensation of employees" the same as labor income ? If so, labor income/employee compensation is added twice in the Economic Output total. They may be including health insurance benefits, but it merits further explanation. Then there's the issue of$55 million for the interchange. In the January 11 Roanoke Times letter to the editor (that Terry McGuire sent out) Whit Bromm writes that "the city's own planning documents indicate a figure of$75 million." So what's up with that. And if the cost is really projected to be $75 million, why didn't Chris Chittum of the Planning Department speak up when the consultant presented it to city council and say, that actually the city projects it will cost $75 million? We should also argue strongly that citizens of Roanoke will be paying for that interchange through the taxes we pay. City manager Bob Cowell said the developers will likely pay part of that cost. But they will not pay the entire cost. How many tens of millions of tax dollars will go to benefit the landowners who will sell their land to the development company and the property developers ? This would be a subsidy to private land owners and property developers,for a development the citizens of NW Roanoke don't want. Do we want to allow destruction of one of the last natural areas in Roanoke for commercial development or require redevelopment of existing commercial areas that are badly in need of renovation or rebuilding ? Do we allow businesses to leave asphalt wastelands all over our city, or do we structure zoning and building permit rules to require those areas be redeveloped ? „���,. !IS,• OklSojfr i Alexander-Gish House 641 Walnut Ave SW Roanoke,VA 24016 February 4,2024 Noel C.Taylor Municipal Building 215 Church Ave SW Roanoke,VA 24011 Honorable Mayor Lea and Members of City Council, On behalf of Old Southwest Inc.,the neighborhood organization representing the Old Southwest neighborhood for approximately 50 years,we write to express our solidarity with the neighborhoods and residents adjacent to the Evans Spring Planning Area—Fairland,Villa Heights,and Melrose-Rugby.Our Board has voted to endorse the Policy Position of the Friends of Evans Spring,which calls on city leadership to"create a publicly accessible park and greenspace to protect nearby neighborhoods from extreme urban heat and reduce stormwater flooding that endangers downstream homes and businesses.” Several members of our Board and organization have participated in the community engagement meetings between City leadership,the hired consultants, and the impacted neighborhoods.At these the consistent observation has been resounding opposition from the neighboring communities to large-scale commercial development in the Evans Spring Area. We are concerned that their voices have not been heard. We are also very concerned about the loss of these urban woodlands—the largest remaining tract of undeveloped land in Roanoke—which are providing critical environmental services to the area and our entire city.As an addendum to this letter, we submit 10 points on why preserving this urban forest is the right thing to do from economic,environmental, and public health perspectives.

DECCA KNIGHT c4' 'eRoanok@ 'It 1 FOUNDER OF SERV HTTPS://WWW.STANDING4EQUITY.COM/ S ROANOKEVALLEVEQUITY@GMAIL.COM \ -4* SERV Dear Roanoke City Council Members, We hope this letter finds you well. We are writing to express our strong support for the initiative put forth by the Friends of Evans Spring, urging the Roanoke City Council to direct the city manager to develop a plan for the acquisition and rezoning of the parcels currently zoned Residential - Agriculture (RA) in the Evans Spring Planning Area. Evans Spring represents the largest remaining tract of "undeveloped" land in Roanoke City, providing invaluable ecosystem services that safeguard local public health from extreme urban heat and protect nearby homes and businesses against flooding. Recognizing the importance of preserving these critical environmental functions, we urge you to support the rezoning of these parcels to Recreation-Open Space (ROS) and the creation of a publicly accessible park and greenspace. The proposed park and greenspace not only align with Roanoke's stated values and goals around sustainability but also serve as a vital measure to mitigate the impact of extreme urban heat and reduce stormwater flooding in the area. With the increasing challenges posed by climate change, it is crucial to prioritize initiatives that enhance our community's resilience and contribute to the overall well-being of residents. Furthermore, as Roanoke already contends with underutilized and vacant commercial and industrial areas, it is imperative that we avoid unnecessary and irresponsible development that may further degrade our environment and compromise our quality of life. By creating a park and greenspace around Evans Spring, we can strike a balance between responsible urban planning and the preservation of our natural resources. .tt�►1 fa csogforF eEtoanoke !lee DECCA KNIGHT s ,, w‹, FOUNDER OF SERV • HTTPS://WWW.STANDING4EQUITY.COM/ t4t" ROANOKEVALLEYEQUITYpGMAIL.COM \ -' SERV We urge you to consider the wishes of the local neighborhoods and act in accordance with the values and goals set by the Roanoke community.

Sincerely, fle-c-cov r� G >�VZ e° Decca Knight & SERV Leadership ir Statement on Evans Spring 15 January 2024 RAISE, Roanoke Area Interfaith Stewards of the Earth, is a local organization of people of faith who care about our environment. As members of RAISE, we encourage all people of faith and good will to consider the future of the Evans Spring area of northwest Roanoke. As decisions are made about the future of this land, we urge that the following be kept in mind: All land ownership is provisional. Land belongs primarily to its creator, who many of us know as God. In our Abrahamic traditions we believe that"the Earth is the Lord's and all that is in it, the world, and those who live in it" (Psalm 24:1 NRSV). Arguably, using the land for human purposes, while permitted, is not necessarily the land's highest use. On its own, nature praises God through beauty and biodiversity, ceaselessly, every day. If we seek to stifle that praise, we must have an extremely good reason. Evans Spring in particular is very special, classified as a rare "freshwater emergent wetland" or"wet meadow."' In this special place, cattail, bluejoint grass, reed canary grass, soft rush, wood grass, sedges, smartweeds, asters, goldenrods, lily pads, sycamore, and others praise their creator. Stifling this song of praise is something we must not do lightly. Not all citizens are human. Potawatomi botanist Robin Walt Kimmerer writes that the maple trees are the most loyal and service-oriented citizens in her entire town (Braiding Sweetgrass 168). We note significant discourse around Evans Spring that implies that"undeveloped" land is "wasted." We beg to differ. Apart from the land's function in praising God, noted above, the ecosystem services provided by this land contribute significantly to human well-being in the area. Evans Spring serves as an important stormwater catchment area; the spring and surrounding area feed a watershed that flows into our beloved Roanoke River. Evans Spring also provides an island of cool in the midst of an overall sweltering neighborhood. In those heat maps of Roanoke, Evans Spring shows as a patch of blue in the midst of reds and oranges.2 As temperatures continue to increase due to climate change, we need these cool areas more than ever. Listen to the neighbors. We are acutely aware of the injustices, betrayals, and incredibly harmful actions taken by the city of Roanoke towards residents of the Gainsboro neighborhood and surrounding African-American neighborhoods. It is high time that Roanoke City show some contrition and repentance; one way to do this would be to listen to the communities of color who live near Evans Spring, and act in their best interest rather than in the interest of land owners. This would clearly demonstrate that the city is concerned with the needs of all of its citizens. We strongly support a proposal to buy Evans Spring from the landowners to turn it into a city park and green space. The alternative-development in Evans Spring-would add to the heat index by the very nature of the buildings, parking areas, and other infrastructure. Do we really need our strong but struggling Northwest neighborhoods to be even hotter than they already are, ' Evans Spring Master Plan Planning Level Stormwater Calculations, November 8, 2023. https://www.roanokeva.goviDocumentCenterNiew/19180/Roanoke-Stormwater-Division-Reoort?bidld= 2 For example:,https://www.roanokeva.gov/27201Urban-Heat-Island-Effect 0 knowing the correlations between crime and heat? Holistic health and environmental justice both support the proposal to keep Evans Spring green. Creative problem solving can create a win-win. Developing Evans Spring seems to offer much needed housing and retail, but this is an illusion. Our affordable housing problems can be solved through infill—fix up existing vacant houses, build on vacant lots within existing neighborhoods, and permit greater density in existing neighborhoods—rather than by paving over God's green earth. Retail needs are similar; let's prioritize retrofits and re-builds on current shopping areas rather than despoiling God's creation for the sake of profit. These measures would add tax dollars to the city as well, maybe even more than development in Evans Springs (since infill typically doesn't require the city to build out costly infrastructure on new construction). Creative problem solving should always include reusing and repurposing existing structures first. It's less wasteful of materials and reflects a city concerned about its environmental footprint. And surely the advantages for our stormwater system, parks system, and overall community well-being would make any financial outlay, to turn Evans Spring into a park, worthwhile. Our city's guiding documents point to the importance of preserving Evans Spring. The Climate Action Plan and City Plan 2040 claim "Harmony with Nature" as an important value for our city. This value includes the importance of wise land use and water resource management, good tree stewardship and plentiful outdoor recreation in a clean and beautiful city. Preserving Evans Spring as a green space clearly supports this very important value from our city's 2040 plan. The Climate Action Plan, which has been officially adopted, calls city leaders to "identify sensitive lands... within the City and create practices to protect and encourage connections between them" (Chapter 8, p. 100). It also proposes"strategic acquisition of floodplain" areas (103) as part of an effort to"protect the natural function of undeveloped floodplains" (104). Finally, the Climate Action Plan calls for the city to "conduct an economic evaluation to monetize ecosystem services"for areas"under potential development"-this should inform decision making (114). It seems obvious that Evans Spring is a "sensitive land"worthy of"strategic acquisition"; allowing development will lead to harm - including economic harm -in the long term. We have an obligation to the past, and to the future. Future generations need us to use land wisely so that they can survive, and thrive in, a climate-changed world. They will need maximum green space and minimal urban sprawl. Past generations also lay claim on us. Injustices from the past, such as urban renewal, haunt this current situation. Let us move, albeit belatedly and inadequately, towards justice for communities that have been harmed, rather than reinforcing past traumas. Budgets are moral documents.As a community,we must let our actions reflect our values. As RAISE, we call on all people of faith and good will to support the preservation of the undeveloped land in Evans Spring. And we ask city leaders who make these decisions to consult their conscience, individually and collectively, and act in accordance with what is right, not simply what is expedient or profitable.

Exercise caution when opening attachments or on clicking links from unknown senders. Mayor Sherman Lea, Please vote NO on adding the proposed Evans Spring commercial development plan to the 2040 Comprehensive Plan. Evans Spring currently provides critical ecosystem services that protects public health from extreme urban heat as well as protecting homes and property against flooding.

For years, Salem kept upzoning areas out of the core downtown and Main Street areas. Businesses moved out of Main Street onto Apperson and elsewhere where the zoning allowed. Soon, Salem had an undeniable problem in the downtown and finally, decades later, decided to make a plan in 2015. Roanoke is not a mega-sized city and can sufficiently support a certain number of businesses. Upzoning areas of Evans Spring's 150 acres risks the collapse of existing businesses in Crossroads, Valley View and Tanglewood, some of which are already suffering. For the reasons outlined in the petition, I implore Roanoke to follow the current comprehensive plan instead of approving a pet project unwanted by the minority community by means of altering the Comprehensive Plan to fit the project. This is unorthodox and unfaily thwarts the public's input and not the way to represent your constituents. Please support your city by supporting your current businesses and developments instead of creating more competition for them with a set number of customers. The primary task should be to fill the empty commercial buildings with clients or apartments. Following through with your plan disaffects Black constituents who are still not healed from the undermining of a thriving Gainesboro that adversely altered the future for many Black families. Please do not unfairly add Evans Spring to the Comprehensive Plan as a means to legitimize a project unwanted and unneeded by the Black community. 1 Cynthia Munley cmunley@live.com 425 Roanoke Boulevard, Salem, VA, USA Salem, Virginia 24153 2 Windsor Nevitt From: Karen Gatz <noreply@adv.actionnetwork.org> Sent: Wednesday, February 14, 2024 12:12 PM To: Sherman Lea Subject: [EXTERNAL] Vote NO on adding the Evans Spring Development Plan to the Comprehensive Plan You don't often get email from noreply@adv.actionnetwork.org.Learn why this is important CAUTION: This email originated from outside your organization.

We are not talking about some idealistic abstract concept of preserving beauty, but the very personal concept of preserving YOUR legacy, as in how this generation and probably several more will personally see you, the person this is sent to. People will always make up their minds on how they see you, the only question is-what will you give them to use? The fact of the matter is that man-made things need more upkeep and more work over time than you can personally guarantee. The human lifespan is startlingly short and in just 50 years, some of you will be in nursing homes, some will be in the burial park, and several of you will have gone grey. Meanwhile Evans spring has looked just like this or similar to it without any upkeep when your grandparents were born, and will continue to look just this beautiful if you simply leave it alone. This requires no yearly expenditure to inspect buildings or re- pave roads. Evans' Spring is a self supporting ecosystem and will continue to be a treasure just as it is, without a single tax dollar going into it. Those tax dollars belong to us, and we say- leave it alone, as it is, and preserve it. Why is this even personal to you? What do you want your legacy to be? "those idiots in city council tore down this lovely place and now it's just a bunch of run-down buildings, it will never be like it was, what a waste- how short sighted they were,just more money grubbing politicians" OR "those people that knew enough and were wise enough to protect this place, boy!, the rest of Roanoke has just gotten more crowded but at least this is still as pretty as it ever was, what a treasure- I wish there were more future-thinking folks like them" Your time on this earth is not merely to make money or please developers-you were put into office to hear out the people- all the people of this city and the people have spoken- we will determine your legacy and we want Evans Spring preserved. For many different reasons, from cultural resource, natural resource as a place of unique ecological beauty, for its important job to regulate pollution and provide oxygen, and to combat global warming by preserving the tree canopy, something threatened every day by development of wooded land. From students who study biology and ecology, to artists who want a place close by for plein air painting- it belongs to the citizens as it is. Do you personally want to be recognized as foolish for tearing something down just to line the pockets of builders? Or do you want to do the wise thing, the brave thing, the thing your city citizens demand you do, and preserve Evans' Spring in perpetuity? What will it be? Sincerely, i Kelly Prim-the person that painted the portrait of a wildlife rehabilitator in a forest with the species she protects- if conservation of wildlife and wild spaces is good enough to hang on the wall in the municipal building-then it's good enough to put into practice in the conference room. 2 Windsor Nevitt From: William Hartley <noreply@adv.actionnetwork.org> Sent: Sunday, February 11, 2024 12:04 AM To: Sherman Lea Subject: [EXTERNAL] Vote NO on adding the Evans Spring Development Plan to the Comprehensive Plan You don't often get email from noreply@adv.actionnetwork.org.Learn why this is important CAUTION: This email originated from outside your organization.

Learn why this is important CAUTION: This email originated from outside your organization. Exercise caution when opening attachments or on clicking links from unknown senders. Mayor Sherman Lea, On behalf of Joint Resident Council Inc., the neighborhood organization representing all residents residing in Roanoke Redevelopment and Housing Authority properties for approximately 30 years, we write to express our solidarity with the neighborhoods and residents adjacent to the Evans Spring Planning Area — Fairland, Villa Heights, and Melrose- Rugby. Our Board has voted to endorse the Policy Position of the Friends of Evans Spring, which calls on city leadership to "create a publicly accessible park and greenspace to protect nearby neighborhoods from extreme urban heat and reduce stormwater flooding that endangers downstream homes and businesses." A representative of our Board and organization has participated in the community engagement meetings between City leadership, the hired consultants, and the impacted neighborhoods. At these; the consistent observation has been resounding opposition from the neighboring communities to large-scale commercial development in the Evans Spring Area. We are concerned that their voices have not been heard. We are also very concerned about the loss of these urban woodlands—the largest remaining tract of preservable land in Roanoke—which are providing critical environmental services to the area and our entire city. As an addendum to this letter, we submit 10 points on why preserving this urban forest is the right thing to do from economic, environmental, and public health perspectives. 1 Thank you for your consideration of our views and for your service to Roanoke. Benefits to Preserving Urban Forests 1. Property Value: Properties adjacent to well-maintained forests and green spaces often have higher property values than those without. This can increase the overall wealth of a community and generate more property tax revenue for local governments. 2. Tourism: Urban forests can attract tourists, leading to increased revenue for local businesses and the tourism industry. 3. Reduced Energy Costs: Trees provide shade, reducing the need for air conditioning in the summer. They also act as windbreaks, lowering heating costs in the winter. 4. Job Creation: The preservation and maintenance of urban forests can create jobs in fields like forestry, landscaping, and environmental science. 5. Health Benefits: Urban forests improve air quality by absorbing pollutants, which can decrease healthcare costs related to respiratory illnesses. They also promote physical activity and mental health, leading to a healthier and more productive population. 6. Stormwater Management: Urban forests help to manage stormwater runoff, mitigating the impact of flooding and reducing the cost associated with stormwater infrastructure. We have several properties that already deal with flooding Morningside Manor, Indian Rock Village and Jamestown, with the updated flood risk map Villages at Lincoln have several units at risk of flooding and this is with Evans Spring intact. 7. Carbon Sequestration: By absorbing CO2, urban forests help to fight climate change, potentially saving costs related to climate-related disasters and health issues. 8. Biodiversity: Urban forests promote biodiversity, which can have various economic benefits, including potential sources of new drugs and materials, pest control, pollination of crops, and more. 9. Educational Opportunities: Urban forests can serve as outdoor classrooms, providing educational opportunities for students and researchers. 2 10. Quality of Life: Urban forests contribute to the quality of life, making a locality more attractive to potential residents and businesses.

Mayor Lea and Vice-Mayor Cobb; Councilors White-Boyd, Volisin, Moon Reynolds, Priddy, and Sanchez- Jones: In June of 2022, as the Trust Subcommittee of the Equity and Empowerment Advisory Board was seeking to expand its membership, I was encouraged by a good friend, David Harrison, to join in that subcommittee's work. Our task seemed both essential and daunting: to discern ways for enabling community healing. City leadership had wisely acknowledged the sins of the past during the era of urban renewal and its irreparable harm done to the residents of the Northeast and Gainsboro neighborhoods. Now was the time to seek healing and the rebuilding of trust. Yet we knew from the outset that potential plans for the development of Evans Spring cast a shadow over our work and any prospect for success. Just like urban renewal projects of the past, the concept plans concerning Evans Spring that lie before you are based on the universally accepted assumption that economic development is both good for a city and the prime concern of those with authority to govern it. I urge you, at this critical moment, to acknowledge that there are values which are equal to or - given an acknowledged history of mistrust and harm -more important than economic development. Certainly, key among those values is the well-being of a city's citizens, especially its most vulnerable ones. Others are far more articulate than I in outlining the harm to neighborhoods and persons resulting from the commercial development of Evans Spring. Still, if such development proceeds, it will be clear to all which value has won: Economic development for the sake of the city while asking the vulnerable to bear, once again, its cost. A second critical value that, in this moment, supersedes economics is our mutual desire to build trust and to heal. How can a city thrive when there is mistrust between those who govern and the governed? While the plan before you is defined as a "concept" - an interpretation of what could be - I fear that once a concept is adopted, it ceases to be a possibility that could be and becomes a blueprint for what should be, even what must be, making it a priority for the city's time, attention, and resources. If this plan moves forward as projected, it will destroy for generations to come any possibility of rebuilding trust between the city and the communities at risk. The decision before you is a momentous one. Regardless of its outcome, it will be recorded as a turning point in the city's history. I urge you to make the decision to place community well-being ahead of economic development. Thank you for your consideration. Rev. Nancy M.

The idea of developing an area such as Evans Spring is very upsetting,we live in a time where we need to maintain green spaces, first to reduce the heat index and second to allow people to spend time outdoors and maintain a good ecosystem.There are so many empty buildings in Roanoke, so much asphalt, I am sure with some renovation,those buildings can be used for retail, housing and whatever the plan may be for Evan Springs. One of the ideas were to make Evans Spring a botanical garden or park,that is the direction we need to go.The greenway has added to the quality of life for so many people, lets add more spaces for our citizens to spend time outdoors, children to connect with nature and have places to sit and enjoy the environment.

We are writing to express our strong support for the initiative put forth by the Friends of Evans Spring, urging the Roanoke City Council to direct the city manager to develop a plan for the acquisition and rezoning of the parcels currently zoned Residential - Agriculture (RA) in the Evans Spring Planning Area. Evans Spring represents the largest remaining tract of "undeveloped" land in Roanoke City, providing invaluable ecosystem services that safeguard local public health from extreme urban heat and protect nearby homes and businesses against flooding. Recognizing the importance of preserving these critical environmental functions, we urge you to support the rezoning of these parcels to Recreation-Open Space (ROS) and the creation of a publicly accessible park and greenspace. The proposed park and greenspace not only align with Roanoke's stated values and goals around sustainability but also serve as a vital measure to mitigate the impact of extreme urban heat and reduce stormwater flooding in the area. With the increasing challenges posed by climate change, it is crucial to prioritize initiatives that enhance our community's resilience and contribute to the overall well-being of residents. Furthermore, as Roanoke already contends with underutilized and vacant commercial and industrial areas, it is imperative that we avoid unnecessary and irresponsible development that may further degrade our environment and compromise our quality of life. By creating a park and greenspace around Evans Spring, we can strike a balance between responsible urban planning and the preservation of our natural resources. f (SI aog for 9 DECCA KNIGHT �w��ekooke ,% FOUNDER OF SERV HTTPS://WWW.STANDING4EQUITY.COM/ ROANOKEVALLEYEQUITY@GMAIL.COM SERV We urge you to consider the wishes of the local neighborhoods and act in accordance with the values and goals set by the Roanoke community.

Dear Mayor Lea, I am deeply concerned over the development plans for Evans Springs -both due to environmental considerations and social justice values that I believe strongly need to be honored. I would hope that our city's leaders would plan for the long term - recognizing climate change issues, the importance of preserving our tree canopies, and protecting the quality of life in NW Roanoke. I wouldn't want generations to come to think poorly on our current city leadership - imagine if we could go back in time and better honor the alarm bells about devastating our prized historical Gainsboro District. Let's not proceed with another development that we are likely to deeply regret. We now know more about the importance of decisions that are environmentally conscious AND that respect citizens' feedback regarding the problems inherent in urbanizing an area that could be preserved. A park - a preserved nature area- would benefit us ALL -- providing an opportunity to savor nature, appreciate biodiversity, and feel valued as members of the commUNITY. There are many ways to expand our residential capacity, strengthen commerce and keep Roanoke as beautiful and economically vital as possible. These plans would very possibly cause more harm than reaping benefits. Thank you for considering these concerns. I hope you, Mr. Mayor, as our premier leader of our city can stand up for the values that matter deeply and that make the City of Roanoke worthy of being an All American City year after year!

Mayor Sherman Lea, Please vote NO on adding the proposed Evans Spring commercial development plan to the 2040 Comprehensive Plan. Have you visited the Lake? The natural spring flows into the lake on 7 acres at the top of the 150 acres in question. How about trading owners other property they could use for development where homes are wanted! Evans Spring currently provides critical ecosystem services that protects public health from extreme urban heat as well as protecting homes and property against flooding. Thanks for re-examining old ideas and shifting the focus approach to the whole valley's needs.

I spoke with Chris Chittum via email to let him know I would not be able to attend the public hearing this coming Tuesday at 7pm and asked if I could write in my opinion . He said Id I could and to send it to this email. Please see the email below. Thank you for your time and consideration. Dear Clerk, I hope this email finds you well. I am writing to express my support for the Evans Spring Development project and its potential economic impact on the city of Roanoke. While I acknowledge that I may not fully understand the direct implications of this development on the residents in the immediate vicinity, I believe it is crucial to consider the broader economic benefits it could bring to our community as a whole. As you are aware, Roanoke has faced significant challenges in recent years with the loss of major businesses like GE, Advance Auto, Norfolk Southern, and Kroger. These departures have left a void in our local economy, and I believe that the Evans Spring Development presents a valuable opportunity for economic rebirth and growth. By attracting larger commercial businesses and encouraging more residents to the valley, this development has the potential to stimulate economic activity, create jobs, and enhance the overall vitality of our city. Additionally, the establishment of new infrastructure and housing in the Valley View area could serve as a catalyst for revitalization, breathing new life into this important part of our community. While I understand the concerns about potential disruptions caused by construction and development, I firmly believe that the long-term benefits of the Evans Spring Development will outweigh any short-term challenges. Ultimately, I believe this project has the potential to be a positive force for the residents of the Roanoke Valley, contributing to a stronger and more prosperous future for our city. Thank you for considering my perspective on this matter. I trust that the decision-making process will carefully weigh the interests of all stakeholders involved, with a focus on the long-term well-being of our community. i Daniel Walters Regional Director of Sales & Marketing-Kalyan Hospitality Cell Phone:540-632-5556 Email:Daniel.walters2@hilton.com www.kalyanhospitality corn This transmission is not a digital or electronic signature and cannot be used to form,document,or authenticate a contract.

Hello, in addition to the email I sent you before ,please see the email below from Katherine O'Connell, the Director of Development and Business Strategy. She would also like this to be share before the hearing next Tuesday. Thank you! To the Office of Community Development and County Clerk Office, I am writing to express my strong support for the Evans Spring Development located near Interstate 581. I represent Kalyan Hospitality, a hotel development and management firm with multiple hotels in the area. I facilitated the opening of the Hampton Inn & Suites located at the Valley View Mall while it was under construction in 2012/2013. It opened in Spring of 2014. During those initial visits, I enjoyed the vibrancy of the shopping area, the variety of restaurants and the overall sense of community the mall and surrounding areas offered. It's been almost 10 years since those initial visits, and I have watched Roanoke grow and morph as the years have passed. Unfortunately, the area surrounding the mall and the airport, while still viable, need economic stimulus. We believe in this area so much that we are currently renovating an old hotel near the airport and repositioning it into a Hilton branded facility. There have been some great changes in the area and I see construction as I write this letter of support, but there is much more that needs to be done to ensure this once thriving area grows back into the power house it used to be. I believe this development presents a valuable opportunity to revitalize the area and breathe new life into a struggling development landscape. It is evident that our mall had been and still is facing significant challenges. The pandemic did not help. Higher vacancy rates, dwindling foot traffic, and the closure of several stores have, I am sure, created challenges. This not only impacts the economic vitality of our community but also creates a sense of desolation and neglect in an area that was once bustling with activity. The proposed development offers a promising solution which compliments the efforts of current business owners and investors. By introducing new businesses, amenities, and most importantly residential spaces, we have the opportunity to attract shoppers and residents into a fully integrated i area/neighborhood. What I most like about this development is the offering of multiple types of housing to accommodate the budget of the local residents. This infusion of activity will not only benefit the new businesses but also provide a much-needed boost to the existing ones, creating a ripple effect of economic growth and prosperity. Remember, when we would meet at Panera Bread and enjoy friendships? - we need those moments back and infrastructure that creates those moments. Furthermore, the development has the potential to transform the area into a vibrant hub of activity, offering a diverse range of retail, dining, entertainment, and and visitors alike. This will not only enhance the quality of life for those living ng in our communinal options foritty but also make it a more attractive destination for tourists and shoppers from neighboring areas. I understand that there may be concerns and opposition to the development, ranging from potential traffic congestion to changes in the local landscape. However, I firmly believe that the benefits far outweigh any drawbacks. With careful planning, collaboration, and community engagement, we can address these challenges effectively and ensure that the development aligns with the needs and aspirations of our community. In conclusion, I urge you to support the proposed development. By seizin this o revitalize our community, create new opportunitiesg pportunity, we can future for generations to come. Thank you for your attention to this matter,nesses and and residents,please do a brighter to reach out if you have any questions or require further information. not hesitate Sincerely, Katherine O'Connell Development & Business Strategy www.kalyanhospitality.corn (202) 744-4435 Daniel Walters Regional Director of Sales & Marketing-Kalyan Hospitality Cell Phone:540-632-5556 Email:Daniei.walters2@hilton.com www.kalyanhospitality.corn 41.

Evans Spring is a natural wetland of Roanoke. To the Mayor of Roanoke and the Members of City Council: Subject: Evans Spring Date: February 18, 2024 I am Rupert Cutler, 204 S. Jefferson Street, Suite 4, Roanoke, VA 24011. Please make this message a part of the official record of the February 20, 2024, Council public hearing on the Evans Spring Development Plan. My position on the future of the undeveloped 150-acre Evans Spring site has been a matter of public record for five years (see, "Cutler: Six proposals for Evans Spring," op ed, The Roanoke Times, September 3, 2019) and has not changed, as follows: Nothing should be done on the site that will result in an increase in the volume or a decrease in the quality of the stormwater that comes off the site into Lick Run. The spring and lake and a buffer around them should be managed as a "natural reserve" (see the Carvin Cove example). Lick Run Greenway should be extended to the spring, the source of the stream. The trees, native vegetation, and wildlife habitat now on the site should be protected. Heavy vehicular traffic that will disrupt the existing residential community and endanger students at the elementary school on 19th Street should be avoided. My personal interest in the Lick Run watershed has been demonstrated by my leading the Kiwanis Club of Roanoke to install mile posts every one tenth of a mile along the Lick Run Greenway in 2002-2008 to provide trail users in trouble to call 911 with their precise location and to conduct semi-annual litter clean-up events on the greenway that continue to this day. My personal use of the Lick Run Greenway, to observe and record birdlife along the trail, was frequent for many years, during which I saw some 100 species of birds, indicating the importance of the Lick Run watercourse as an important wildlife habitat and public outdoor recreation opportunity. Here are two practical conservation options for City Council to pursue prior to deciding the future use of the Evans Spring site: 1. Ask the Virginia Department of Conservation and Recreation to conduct a "natural heritage inventory" of the site to document the location and conservation status of rare plant and animal species, unique geological features, and outstanding native ecosystems. 2. Ask The Conservation Fund based in Arlington, Virginia (https://www.conservationfund.orq/) to buy the private land and convey it to the city, as it did in 2021 when it bought a 77-acre historic property on the Chattahoochee River in northwest Atlanta "to preserve and enhance the environmental and recreational benefits of this key site" and gave it to the City of Atlanta. A rail terminal was proposed for that site. Acquisition of the Chattahoochee Brick Company site by The Conservation Fund on behalf of the city halted immediate threats of development and "propelled the riverfront greenspace to being protected as a community park." I will conclude by directing the Council's attention to a Presidential Executive Order that applies only to federal projects but should be considered a model for local governments as well. The topic is "Environmental Justice." Issued in 1994, Executive Order 12898 requires every Federal agency to make achieving environmental justice part of its mission by identifying and addressing, as appropriate, disproportionally high and adverse human health or environmental effects of its programs and activities on minority populations and low-income populations. An accompanying Presidential Memorandum directs that human health, economic, and social effects, including effects of minority communities and low-income communities, be included in the analysis of environmental effects pursuant of NEPA and CEQ-issued guidance for agencies on addressing environmental justice in the NEPA(National Environmental Policy Act) process. While the provisions of the National Environmental Policy Act and Presidential executive orders are not binding on Roanoke City Council, the thrust of their intent to protect minority communities from adverse environmental effects of its decision should be worthy of your consideration and emulation. Thank you. Roanoke City Council Freeda Cathcart, FLMI Soil and Water Conservation District Director representing Roanoke City Climate Reality Leader February 19, 2024 RE: Evans Spring Master Plan Dear Mayor Lea, Vice-Mayor Cobb, Ms. Moon Reynolds, Ms. Sanchez-Jones, Ms. White-Boyd, Mr. Volosin Mr. Priddy and Ms. McCoy, Please vote NO on adding the Evans Spring Development Plan to the 2040 Comprehensive Plan. Currently there isn't enough information to determine if the proposed Evans Spring Development Plan would have a beneficial impact on Roanoke City or potentially a negative impact. The information about the economic analysis indicates that a comprehensive economic evaluation wasn't conducted for the proposed plan. Without more information, it appears that the proposed development plan is incongruent with the Roanoke City 2040 Comprehensive Plan and the recently adopted Climate Action Plan. There was no mention in the consultant's report that Virginia has determined that the Evans Spring area is a CONSERVATION PRIORITY according to the State Wildlife Action Plan. The consultants used IMPLAN for economic modeling.When the consultant was asked if an environmental impact study had been conducted, he replied that it wasn't because they hadn't been asked to do one. This is very concerning because every level of government needs to consider climate risk when considering transformative projects. From the Evans Spring Development Plan: "IMPLAN measures the direct, indirect, and induced impacts associated with a specific economic event(e.g., new job creation, a change in wages paid, etc.) or industry investment (e.g., construction of a housing or commercial development). These impacts were measured in two events: 1) annual impacts related to the construction of Concept 3.1, 2) the future impacts associated with the future operations of the businesses that would locate at the future Evans Spring development. The economic impacts were estimated using IMPLAN CLOUD, the latest version of the model, which has been updated with a base year of 2021." According to Matthew Monroe the Agricultural Economist with Natural Resources Conservation Service: "IMPLAN does have an environmental tab on the analysis page, but from what 1 can tell it isn't very robust. The focus is on impacts to emissions and air quality because of some increased level of business activity associated with an investment project or program. The results you see from the contractors are strictly economic impacts (subsequent output after influx of money/business activity enters the local economy), there isn't any environmental considerations built in by default." It's important to include climate risk when making urban planning decisions because inadequate planning can lead to higher rates on municipal bonds putting more of a burden on taxpayers to pay more to fund necessary projects. Another important consequence is insurance companies are starting to refuse to offer coverage in areas with higher climate risk. According to this New York Times article As Climate Shocks Grow, Lawmakers Investigate Insurers Fleeing Risky Areas, Congress started investigating how the insurance industry is determining what markets they are abandoning to help states and localities with their plans to address climate risk. Roanoke City needs to wait until the results from this investigation before making transformative changes to Evans Spring. It is also necessary to have an environmental impact statement to determine how the proposed plan could alter the floodplain and heat index. From the New York Times article (full text is attached in case you can't access the paywall), "Carolyn Kousky, an economist at the Environmental Defense Fund who studies the impact of climate change on the insurance market, said the committee's investigation could also prompt elected officials to confront painful questions about how and where Americans build homes. That could lead to tighter restrictions on new development, helping people move away from areas vulnerable to extreme weather, or prohibiting people from building back after disasters in some areas, Dr. Kousky said." It is important to consider the impact of climate risk before proceeding with the approval for a transformative development plan for Evans Spring.

Exercise caution when opening attachments or on clicking links from unknown senders. Dear Mayor Lea, Vice-Mayor Cobb, Ms. Moon Reynolds, Ms. Sanchez-Jones, Ms. White-Boyd, Mr. Volosin Mr. Priddy and Ms. McCoy, The proposed Evans Spring Master Plan doesn't address Environmental Justice. Even without an Environmental Impact Statement, the data from the Tree Equity map, makes it clear that the proposed commercial and residential development surrounding Evans Spring would harm the surrounding marginalized communities. The Virginia Environmental Justice Act states, "It is the policy of the Commonwealth to promote environmental justice and ensure that it is carried out throughout the Commonwealth, with a focus on environmental justice communities and fenceline communities." It further defines as, "the fair treatment and meaningful involvement of every person, regardless of race, color, national origin, income, faith, or disability, regarding the development, implementation, or enforcement of any environmental law, regulation, or policy." Please see the attached screenshots of the neighborhoods around Evans Spring and the ones around Fishburn Park. There is a significant disparity between the tree equity between the two regions. The families and businesses surrounding Evans Spring deserve to be protected from a more harmful heat island effect. Attached is an updated version of the letter that I sent to the Planning Commission with the hyperlinks to the substantiating information. Here is the link to the slides for my presentation from August 2022 that I gave to the Roanoke City Council . The subject was flooding resiliency, climate risk and why it's important to protect the woodlands near Lick Run and Murray Run. Several members of council asked me to give the same presentation to the Planning Commission. When I was finally placed on their agenda in January 2023 and attempted to give the presentation, the commissioners cut me off and said that they weren't interested in hearing the presentation. Based on the planning commission's decisions, they don't appear to understand that the flood plain map is dynamic and is already out of date. When trees are removed upland in a watershed then there will be an increase of stormwater and flooding risk. Since there has been no Environmental Justice evaluation and there wasn't a climate risk assessment then the proposed Evans Spring Master Plan needs more work before being added to the 2040 Comprehensive Plan. The economic analysis for the proposed plan can't be accurate since it didn't include climate risk, municipal bond ratings or the potential loss of insurance coverage. Please vote "NO" or table this proposed Evans Spring Master Plan.

Dear Mayor Lea, I joined Friends of Evans Spring last year after hearing my fellow citizens of NW Roanoke express strong opposition to development of the Evans Spring area at the March 9 community meeting at Williams Memorial Church. During the last few months I helped collect signatures on the petition to preserve Evans Spring at community events in NW Roanoke and in neighborhood near Evans Spring. Most of the citizens I talked to in the neighborhood near Evans Spring had not heard about the new plans to develop the area. When I showed them the diagrams of the proposals from the Master Plan they too became very concerned. All of the development options in the plan will bring increased noise, air pollution, trash, and night light pollution from parking lots, into the neighborhood. Removal of trees and installation of large parking lots will bring increased heat. Option 3, with no connection from the development to the neighborhood, satisfies the plea from residents to not have a huge increase in traffic going through the neighborhood. But all the traffic noise and air pollution from thousands of cars per day on the interchange will descend directly onto neighborhood. Traffic noise from I - 581 can already be heard in the neighborhood. With the interchange it will be even worse. The increased noise and air pollution from the interchange will harm this neighborhood- more stress, more respiratory illnesses. There are environmental issues with the development plans, but there are also lots of questions about the claimed economic benefits of development. The numbers in the Operational Phase Impact don't even add up. The total is off by close to $206 million. If there are other factors in the $2.9 billion total they should be included in the report so they can be analyzed. The consultant's report notes "mixed performances of the retail sector, and a stagnant office market in the Roanoke market between 2012 and 2022" but they still claim "Roanoke has the potential to capture additional retail demand over the next 10 years, as consumer demand grows". This is a questionable assertion since the population of SW Virginia is not growing. What's the retail vacancy rate in Roanoke right now? i There are already 8 hotels in the area near I - 581 and Hershberger. Is there demand for another hotel in an area in this area? What's the occupancy rate for the 8 hotels already there?The city will not realize the revenue promised by hotel occupancy taxes unless rooms are occupied. Roanoke does host conventions. Is the convention space we already have being fully booked? And in what other areas of the city could a convention center be built without the cost of the interchange? And why, why build a large commercial building and parking lot in Landbay A when Sears is sitting vacant right across I - 581? The jobs created by this development will be almost entirely service jobs: hotel, retail and food service, maintenance and cleaning jobs. The Direct Labor Income projected from 1359 jobs the consultants claim the development will bring is $680.2 million over 20 years. $680.2 million divided by 20 years, is $34.01 million per year, divided by 1359 jobs, is an annual income of$25,026 per year per job, barely a living wage for one person. So, at least they are not claiming jobs that might be created will be great jobs. Judging from the price of an apartment at the new complex recently built at I — 581 and Hershberger, it's doubtful if the employees of those businesses will even be able to afford the new housing in the area. Then there's the claim of$1.7 billion of Value Added over 20 years. Page 31 of the Master Plan Report says "Value added consists of compensation of employees, taxes on production and imports less subsidies." "Employee Compensation" and "Labor Income" are the same dollars. Those dollars are added twice in the Economic Output total. The idea is the money employees of the businesses earn will be spent in the community, and add value in the community. Low income workers, which the employees of those businesses will be, spend their money on necessities, food, shelter and transportation. Most of their wages will go to Kroger, Wal-Mart and Appalachian Power. Very few of those dollars will actually stay in the community. Then there's the cost of the interchange. The city doesn't know how much of the cost would come from developers, and how much, if any, from VDOT. Suppose those sources provide $20 million. The citizens of Roanoke will be left to pay $40 million. But it won't be just $40 million. That amount will have to be financed, probably by municipal bonds. At an interest rate of 4% over 20 years the cost of retiring that debt would be $72 million. If paid off in ten years, it would cost the city of Roanoke $56 million, almost the entire Net Fiscal Impact claimed in the Master Plan Report. Citizens of Roanoke will be paying that $56 million, or $72 million, through taxes. This would be a subsidy, a handout, to private land owners and property developers, for a development many citizens of Roanoke don't want. This would be public money spent for private profit. We are told there will be a small business incubator. There are several other places in NW Roanoke where a small business incubator could be located, without the expenditure for the interchange. Small business start-up grants would be a much more direct, and effective method to encourage small, locally owned business than spending money on an interchange. We've been told that the property owners have a right to develop their property. They have the right to develop their property as zoned, residential/agricultural. Zoning laws are in place to balance the rights of property owners and other residents of the city. 2 We recognize the need for affordable housing, and assisted living in Roanoke. But there are vacant lots on which housing units could be built all over Roanoke. And there are vacant commercial properties all over Roanoke that could be redeveloped. These areas need to be rehabilitated. Redevelopment of other areas of the city would bring the same jobs and tax revenue without the cost of the interchange and the harm to the Evans Spring neighborhood. Citizens of Roanoke will be paying for the interchange through taxes. And in return they will get more low paid hotel and retail jobs, more noise and air pollution, stress and illness. What kind of city do we want? Should property owners and developers be allowed to develop in ways that hurt residents of the city? Are we going to bulldoze every last bit of green space while property owners and developers leave other areas of the city run down, dilapidated and vacant? Is private profit more important than health and quality of life for city residents? I urge you to direct the city manager to acquire the Evans Spring area, and that it be rezoned as recreational/open space and preserve it as a nature park. Thank you for your time and consideration of these issues.

Taylor Municipal Building 215 Church Ave SW Roanoke, VA 24011 Honorable Mayor Lea and Members of City Council, On behalf of Joint Resident Council Inc., the neighborhood organization representing all residents residing in Roanoke Redevelopment and Housing Authority properties for approximately 30 years, we write to express our solidarity with the neighborhoods and residents adjacent to the Evans Spring Planning Area— Fairland, Villa Heights, and Melrose-Rugby. Our Board has voted to endorse the Policy Position of the Friends of Evans Spring, which calls on city leadership to"create a publicly accessible park and greenspace to protect nearby neighborhoods from extreme urban heat and reduce stormwater flooding that endangers downstream homes and businesses." A representative of our Board and organization has participated in the community engagement meetings between City leadership, the hired consultants, and the impacted neighborhoods. At these; the consistent observation has been resounding opposition from the neighboring communities to large-scale commercial development in the Evans Spring Area. We are concerned that their voices have not been heard. We are also very concerned about the loss of these urban woodlands—the largest remaining tract of preservable land in Roanoke—which are providing critical environmental services to the area and our entire city. As an addendum to this letter, we submit 10 points on why preserving this urban forest is the right thing to do from economic, environmental, and public health perspectives. Thank you for your consideration of our views and for your service to Roanoke. Sincerely, Duane Smith, President Benefits to Preserving Urban Forests 1. Property Value: Properties adjacent to well-maintained forests and green spaces often have higher property values than those without. This can increase the overall wealth of a community and generate more property tax revenue for local governments. 2. Tourism: Urban forests can attract tourists, leading to increased revenue for local businesses and the tourism industry. 3. Reduced Energy Costs: Trees provide shade, reducing the need for air conditioning in the summer. They also act as windbreaks, lowering heating costs in the winter. 4. Job Creation: The preservation and maintenance of urban forests can create jobs in fields like forestry, landscaping, and environmental science. 5. Health Benefits: Urban forests improve air quality by absorbing pollutants, which can decrease healthcare costs related to respiratory illnesses. They also promote physical activity and mental health, leading to a healthier and more productive population. 6. Stormwater Management: Urban forests help to manage stormwater runoff, mitigating the impact of flooding and reducing the cost associated with stormwater infrastructure. We have several properties that already deal with flooding Morningside Manor, Indian Rock Village and Jamestown, with the updated flood risk map Villages at Lincoln have several units at risk of flooding and this is with Evans Spring intact. 7. Carbon Sequestration: By absorbing CO2, urban forests help to fight climate change, potentially saving costs related to climate-related disasters and health issues. 8. Biodiversity: Urban forests promote biodiversity, which can have various economic benefits, including potential sources of new drugs and materials, pest control, pollination of crops, and more. 9. Educational Opportunities: Urban forests can serve as outdoor classrooms, providing educational opportunities for students and researchers. 10. Quality of Life: Urban forests contribute to the quality of life, making a locality more attractive to potential residents and businesses.

Learn why this is important CAUTION: This email originated from outside your organization. Exercise caution when opening attachments or on clicking links from unknown senders. I cannot attend the City Council meeting on Tuesday for this public hearing, so I've prepared a brief(3 minutes of audio) Powerpoint to express concerns about adopting this Master Plan as a component of City Plan 2040. While there is much to commend about the plan, it introduces 370,000 square feet of commercial development directly into the Melrose-Rugby neighborhood, including a large footprint store of around 100,000 square feet (about the size of the Home Depot on Hershberger Road) and a 150 room hotel and conference center practically across the street the elementary school. Of equal concern, this plan commits the City to participating in unknown costs to an unknown degree to complete an interchange to serve one property and to upgrades that will be needed to the surrounding neighborhood street system. Please read through the Powerpoint, and if possible, play it (despite my awful attempt at narration) during the public hearing. Almost everything on the 8 slides was copied directly from the Master Plan or City Plan 2040. Please consider adopting only the sections "Rezoning Option" (page 36) and "Recommendations" (page 10) as part of City Plan 2040, and accept the remainder as a study or matter of information. Thank-you for your consideration.

Council I am writing as a City resident for 43 years, a business person and a member of the Economic Development Authority for the City.The Evans Spring Development should be approved for several reasons. 1. The Evans Spring property owners should not be pressured or criticized for wanting to develop their property for a use other leaving it as is. 2. The neighborhood does not own the property any more than the Evans Spring owners own the neighborhood. 3. This is not urban renewal,there is no taking of land. Urban renewal was wrong and the property owners that lost their property were taken advantage of. Evans Spring land owners should not be held accountable for a failed past government policy. 4. The development will need to meet all current regulations regarding stormwater,traffic,flood control and utilizes. 5. There have been comments about why the vacancy at Valley View is not being consider. First,the city does not own Valley View and I believe if there was a redevelopment plan to improve Valley View the city would be pleased. 6. In my opinion plan is a reasonable mix use development that bends the commercial uses in to the residential uses. I encourage the council vote in favor of the plan presented.

Only 30% of Evans Spring tree canopy will be protected in the Evans Spring Master Plan (because it's 100ft on each side of the spring, creek and pond). 70% of 150 acres of woodlands will be destroyed!

RUTH BLACKMAN ruthblackman@cox.net 5716 Fieldview Dr Roanoke, Virginia 24019 i To the Mayor of Roanoke and the Members of City Council: Subject: Evans Spring Date: February 20, 2024 Submitted by Sherman Bamford, 2423 Winthrop Ave., SW, Roanoke, VA. 24015. I wish to make this message a part of the official record of the February 20, 2024, Council public hearing on the Evans Spring Development Plan. When I was a child, I lived in a small town, but soon discovered a few woods and fields that sprung up from abandoned tobacco farms near my house. There was nothing special about these places, but to me, at that age, they were all the world. Last year when I was at Go Fest, I recounted this story when I met some leaders of the Humble Hikes Program, part of the Humble Hustle organization that provides outreach and activities to African American youth in Roanoke. At that time, I told them that without my own experience, I would have been "lost." Learning about the outdoors at that early age influenced me in a positive way for the rest of my life. And although white, I understand how important access to the outdoors is for everyone, no matter who they are, or where they grow up. The City of Roanoke can continue to be a place there is an inequitable distribution of parkland, particularly forested parkland, but I don't want to live in that kind of world. City Council has a choice to make. It can take steps to protect Evans Spring and its surrounding forested woodlands, or lose them. If it is developed, that choice will be gone forever. There will be no going back. I don't want to live in that kind of world. I have hiked in out-of-the-way places throughout southwest Virginia, but found that some of our most priceless gems are hidden in plain sight— right there at our doorstep. Evans Spring is one such gem. While most of the original natural springs that attracted bison, native Americans and settlers to the Roanoke Valley are covered over or cannot be located today, Evans Spring still pumps out clear water in abundance in the midst of a now partially restored forested landscape. All the more reason not to erase this vital part of Roanoke's history or degrade it with increased run-off. As pointed out by David Perry of Blue Ridge Land Conservancy, "[i]n the last 20 years, Roanoke has invested heavily in marketing its outdoor amenities to help drive economic growth in the city." Opening the door to development of Evans Spring would counter those years of efforts or would send a message that outdoor recreation is only for affluent white people, not for the neighborhoods of Northwest Roanoke, at Evans Spring's back door. I don't want to live in that kind of world. There are economic costs to development, which may require higher public amenities and municipal service costs, compared to open space. According to one study, "a number of communities have reportedly elected to purchase park and open space land, rather than allow it to be used for residential development, because in the long term this results in less tax burden on existing residents than if new homes were built on the land." (Lerner S and Poole W. "Open Space Investments Pay Big Returns." Land and People Magazine, Spring 1999) Please save the 150-acre Evans Spring tract so that young people in the neighborhoods of Northwest Roanoke (including some displaced by urban renewal decades ago) will have a place in the woods to explore, learn from, and celebrate. The city could seek out assistance to acquire the private tracts from the Conservation Fund, as mentioned by Rupert Cutler, from the Trust for Public Land, or other sources. _USDA United States Department of Agriculture p ,.

BOX 2. Forest Bathing Shinrin-yoku is the name given to the Japanese art of"forest bathing." Forest bathing typically involves meditative walks through the woods with the objective of reconnecting with nature, decreasing stress,elevating natural moods,and strengthening the immune system. Forest bathing is rooted in Shinto and Buddhist practices that promote the experience of nature through all five senses. Forest bathers spend time touching and smelling leaves, bark,and flowers. Some even bring essential oils along to enhance smells. Meditation is often part of the experience as well.The practice originated in Japan in the early 1980s when it was endorsed by the Forest Agency of Japan and has since been gaining ground in the United States and other locations around the world. Since 2004,Yoshifumi Miyazaki,director of the Centre for 4 .= Environment Health and Field Sciences at Chiba University , in Japan,has taken more than 600 research subjects into 114`` - �, the woods for monitored forest bathing trips. He and his % , , i colleagues have found that forest walks,compared with - F ' o urban walks,yield a 12.4-percent decrease in the stress hor- _ move cortisol,a 7-percent decrease in sympathetic nerveit.i c activity,a 1.4-percent decrease in blood pressure,and a 4 r V-5.8-percent decrease in heart rate(Lee and others 2009, �' 2011).On subjective tests,study participants also report - ., better moods and lower anxiety.The lower concentrations of cortisol are a direct indicator of less stress.Overexposure �' to cortisol and other stress hormones has been linked to in Forest bathing can help decrease stress,blood pressure, creased anxiety,depression, heart disease,weight gain,and and heart rate. focus and concentration difficulties.Overall,forest bathing appears to have significant stress-reduction benefits.

Healing Gardens Hospital settings are inherently stressful. Stress, anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) are documented in many clinical studies on patient and family stress in relation to hospitalization. Even when medical procedures are routine, patients describe stressful feelings.
