ROANOKE CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT To: Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council Meeting: May 20, 2024 Subject: Acceptance of FEMA Hazard Mitigation Grant funds for acquisition, demolition and site restoration of one floodprone structure and adjacent vacant lot. Background: As part of the City's continued effort to maintain a flood resilient community. the Stormwater Division identifies properties with high existing flood risk to safety, structures and personal assets and provides opportunities for voluntary buyouts to property owners. In support of these efforts, the City submitted a Hazard Mitigation Grant Program (HMGP) application on April 28, 2023 to the Virginia Department of Emergency Management (VDEM) and the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) for acquisition, demolition and site restoration of one floodprone property and adjacent vacant lot (with common ownership) along Garnand Branch in the City. The grant was awarded on May 3, 2024 for a total of$210,000 in project costs funded by FEMA in the amount of $160,000, VDEM in the amount of$40,000, and a local match of $10,000. The property owner was contacted prior to submittal of the grant, and the owner expressed an interest in the program by signing a voluntary participation waiver. It is anticipated that upon acceptance of the grant, execution of agreement and appropriation of funds, that property owners would be re-engaged for acquisition discussions with the approval of City Council. Upon successful acquisition of the property, all structures on the property would be demolished and the site cleaned, graded and restored with native grass and tree species appropriate to the surrounding area. The mitigation of flood risk and restoration of these sites as floodplain assets advances the City's commitment to a safe and healthy community, harmony with nature, and a livable built environment.

City Council action is necessary to enter into negotiations with the property owner of 2346 and 0 Garden City Blvd SE (TAXID 4360405 and 4360406 respectively). Recommended Action: Accept the Hazard Mitigation Grant Program funds in the amount of$210,000.00 for acquisition, demolition and site restoration at the subject properties. Authorize the City Manager or his designee to sign any required documents, in a form approved by the City Attorney.

Summary: By a vote of 4-0, with Commissioners K. Atwood, S. Glenn, and F. Martin absent, the Commission recommends approval of the zoning amendment request, finding that the Amended Application No. 1 is consistent with the general principles within the City's Comprehensive Plan, Williamson Road Area Plan, and the Zoning Ordinance as the subject property will be developed and used in a manner appropriate to the surrounding area. Application Information: Request: Amendment of Proffered Conditions Owner/Applicant: JNO M Oakey Incorporated Agent: Ben Crew, Balzer and Associates, Inc. City Staff Person: Katharine Gray, Principal Planner Address: 5416 Airport Road SW Official Tax No: 6640108 Site Area: +/- 0.419 acres Relevant Plans: Williamson Road Area Plan Proposed Land Use: Funeral home (pet crematorium) Future Land Use: Industrial/Airport Development Filing Date: Original Application: March 20, 2024 Amended Application No. 1 : April 18, 2024 Public Notification and Outreach: • Roanoke Times Legal Advertisement (runs two-consecutive Tuesdays) Required Public Notice - • Letters to Property owners abutting subject State of Virginia Code property (includes across street/alley) • Direct notice by mail includes neighboring localities if applicable Required Public Notice - • Posting a sign on the subject property with City of Roanoke Zoning hearing date and contact for additional Code information • Posting applications - applications received are posted on the PBD Board & Commission page, providing instant access to the full application and supporting documentation • CivicSend Notices - Email notification subscription to share information with citizens and stakeholders according to their PBD Outreach Beyond preferences.

Subsequently, the airport expanded, I- 581 was developed, and the nature of the area changed to airport-focused industrial development. In 2009, the property was rezoned to CG, with conditions, to allow a funeral home for pets. The business continues, but with an increased demand for services, needs additional space. Therefore, the applicant is requesting to 2 amend the proffered condition regarding the development plan to allow such expansion. Proposed Use/Development: The applicant is requesting to amend only the first proffered condition enacted by Ordinance No. 38365-021709 related to the development plan: 1 . The property shall be developed in substantial conformity with the Development Plan attached to this application and prepared by Balzer and Associates, Inc. dated April 15, 2024 a copy of which is attached to this application, subject to any changes required by the City during comprehensive development plan review. The remaining proffered conditions enacted by Ordinance No. 38365-021709 under the 2005 zoning ordinance are not changed: 2. Only the following uses shall be permitted a. Medical Clinic b. Office, General or professional c. Funeral Home d. Personal Service Establishment 3. Any Freestanding sign erected on the subject property shall have a maximum sign area of 32 square feet with a maximum sign height of 6 feet. Any building mounted sign erected on the subject property shall have a maximum sign area of 32 square feet. 4. Electronic readerboards, as defined by Section 36.2-662 (Definitions), Zoning, of the Code of the City of Roanoke, shall be prohibited on the subject property. Considerations: Compatibility with Surrounding Land Uses: The property was built as a dwelling, but over time the area has changed to an airport-focused industrial and commercial area. Funeral home for pets and the other uses as limited in the proffered conditions continue to be appropriate uses near the airport. Zoning District Land Use North AD, Airport Development Motor vehicle rental establishment with inventory onsite and shop South MX, Mixed Use Single unit dwelling 3 Zoning District Land Use East Roanoke County C-2, General Office Commercial West AD, Airport Development Vacant 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 CG District is to permit motor vehicle dependent uses that are generally developed as single use developments on individual lots, subject to landscaping, access, and signage standards. Such development is generally characterized by individual curb cuts, access drives, and signage. It is intended that this district be applied primarily along heavily traveled arterial streets, with an emphasis on clustering such development at major intersections. While recognizing the motor vehicle traffic generated by the uses permitted in this district, it is the intent of the regulations of the district to encourage and recognize pedestrian access and public transit forms of transportation by locating parking to the side and rear of buildings and minimizing conflict through landscaping and signage standards. The uses permitted in this district generally require a high volume of traffic along the frontage of the establishment and include horizontally oriented buildings. Such permitted uses include general retail establishments, offices, service establishments, motor vehicle related sales and service, eating establishments, and entertainment uses. The CG District is also intended to accommodate travel-oriented uses such as hotels, motels, and gasoline stations. This particular proposal does not change the existing CG zoning, but only changes the development plan to allow building and site development that would match the character of the surrounding area. The zoning ordinance will regulate items such as the screening and permeable pavement system requirements for the parking area. Availability of Other Property: The property is located in an area adjacent to the airport that is specified in the comprehensive and neighborhood plans for airport-friendly industrial development. There are no other properties in this area, other than the one in rezoning request, which are available, similarly situated, and zoned to allow this type of development. 4 Consistency with Comprehensive Plan: Both City Plan 2040 and the Williamson Road Area Plan support an industrial type development of this property.

The airport is an important gateway to Roanoke. Details such as fencing, trees, signs, and streetscapes should be well designed to create a good first impression of Roanoke. The airport is inherently an interesting destination. Site planning could identify observation points and opportunities for interpretive features related to aviation. Comments on Application: Planning Commission Work Session: The process to change proffered conditions, parking, and infrastructure improvements along Airport Road were discussed at the Planning Commission work session. ' City Plan 2040, City of Roanoke, 2020 2 Williamson Road Area Plan, City of Roanoke, 2004 5 Interdepartmental Comments: General comments were provided from the Western Virginia Water Authority, and the Planning Building and Development department related to: water and sewer availability, building and zoning subdivision requirements, and the permitting process. Public Comments: Gilbert Collins wrote in support of the application as a needed change to provide this service to the community with no detrimental effect on the surrounding area. Public Hearing: No comments. Conclusions and Recommendations: The principal consideration is whether the proposed zoning amendment is consistent with City Plan 2040 and the Williamson Road Area Plan. The proposed change allows the expansion of a needed service within the Roanoke Valley in a manner in keeping with the overall goals of these plans. periga _ i Pamela D.

PROJECT NARRATIVE: The Oakey's Family has been a trusted name in the funeral home business for over 150 years. In 2009, Oakey's Pet Funeral Home and Crematory (Oakey's) was established on Airport Road to serve the Roanoke Valley and the larger surrounding community. Since its establishment over fifteen (15) years ago, their business has grown as pets have continued in popularity and their personal impacts in the lives of their owners. With this continued growth, there is also additional demand for Pet Funeral and Crematory services. Oakey's has outgrown their existing building capacity and is requesting to modify the existing proffered conditions for this property to allow a small building addition and reconfigured parking area to access the facility. Oakey's is excited to request this amendment to expand their business within the City of Roanoke. JNO M. Oakey, Incorporated, is requesting to amend existing proffered condition #1. The amended condition relates to the updated development plan while maintaining the restrictions on uses and signage standards. The property will remain Commercial General (CG) as the base zoning district/classification. This request is similar to the approved zoning amendment from 2009, but with a current/modified proffer to reflect the proposed improvements. This request further redevelops existing commercial property which is a priority over rezoning new property into commercial. See "Proffers to be Repealed" and "Proffered Conditions to be Adopted" as attachments contained within the submittal package. The parking areas are being reconfigured as shown on the development plan. Two (2) parking spaces are being removed on the Eastern portion of the site for the proposed building addition and small parking area is being reconfigured in front of the building to support the existing business. Parking expansion opportunities were investigated on the Southern and Eastern Sides of the existing/proposed building, but due to existing infrastructure and limited space it wasn't a positive solution to meet this parking need on-site. The proposed building addition will be approximately 900 sf and 1-story. The addition will be designed to complement the existing facilities, utilizing similar exterior materials to the existing building. The addition location is critical to match the existing operations of the facility including one larger internal space for processing/operations. This specific program of the building is all located on the Eastern side (New Addition Side) The expanded facility will contain an additional cremation unit and expanded cold-storage cooler to serve the increased demand of pet cremation services. City Plan 2040 Future Land Use map identifies this area as Commercial —Large Scale which supports the continued commercial development along with section of Airport Road and within this area. Although the project is not considered to be large scale, the commercial component and proposed expansion to an existing commercial building appropriate and supports the Land Use Guidelines for this area. The site is located within the neighborhood planning district of Airport which has a variety of uses within this planning area including commercial, high intensity industrial, office, recreational, and other existing uses. This project exemplifies many of the qualities and attributes expressed within the neighborhood plan for future projects. This project maximizes the existing commercial property in an appropriate location and provides an appropriate context and site design. The proposed use is existing and only expands the interior operations without significant exterior impacts. This project will be developed in accordance with all applicable regulations including, but not limited to, the Roanoke City Zoning Ordinance and Roanoke City Stormwater Management Design Manual. • ,,„„�r- CITY OF ROANOKE OFFICE OF THE CITY CLERK 215 Church Avenue,S.W., Suite 456 z 'r Roanoke,Virginia 24011-1536 Telephone: (540)853-254I Fax: (540)853-1145 STEPHANIE M.MOON,CMC E-mail: clerk@roanokeva.gov SHEILA N.HARTMAN,CMC City Clerk Deputy City Cleric CECELIA T.WEBB Assistant Deputy City Clerk February 18, 2009 James F.

Wind turbine, small Considerations: Compatibility with Surrounding Land Uses: The property was built as a dwelling, but over time the area has changed to an airport-focused industrial area. A warehouse with office fits well into the area and the proffered conditions limit the uses to those that are appropriate near an airport. Zoning District Land Use North RA, Agricultural Single-unit detached dwellings _ South I-1 , Light Industrial, with Office conditions East AD, Airport Development Warehouse with office West RA, Agricultural Vacant with 1-581 beyond The future land use plan from the City Plan 2040 designates this area for industrial use. 4 Applicability/Appropriateness of Proposed Zoning District: The purpose of the I-1 District is to provide for a range of wholesale, warehousing, distribution, storage, repair and service, assembly or processing, fabrication or manufacturing, accessory commercial and office uses, intensive commercial uses, and other types of uses such as flex space. The regulations of the I-1 District are intended to mitigate conflict between adjacent uses within the district and to protect neighboring nonindustrial districts and uses. This particular proposal would allow development with uses, built form, and site development that would match the character of the surrounding area. The zoning ordinance will regulate the screening required between any loading area or loading dock and the abutting property to the north that is currently zoned RA, Agricultural District. Availability of Other Property: The property is located in an area adjacent to the airport that is specified in the comprehensive and neighborhood plans for airport-friendly industrial development. There are no other properties in this area, other than the one in rezoning request, which are available, similarly situated, and zoned to allow this type of development. Consistency with Comprehensive Plan: Both City Plan 2040 and the Williamson Road Area Plan support an industrial type development of this property. Policy/Action Plan Applicability to matter LBE Priority One Policy 1 Comprehensive The rezoning will allow the Action: Proposed development (infill Plan', Livable property to be developed in a development, alterations, Built Environ- manner that reflects the renovations, and additions) should ment Theme character of the surrounding create or enhance a distinctive industrial area character that relates well to the surrounding community RE Priority Three Policy 5 Comprehensive Although the comprehensive Action: Avoid adding to the Plan , Resilient plan requires careful oversupply of general commercial and Economy consideration before adding industrial land and closely scrutinize Theme to the balance of industrial land use requests that add to the zoned property, this particular supply of such zones rezoning request is appropriate as it changes the zoning of the property in the ' City Plan 2040, City of Roanoke, 2020 2 Williamson Road Area Plan. City of Roanoke. 2004 5 Policy/Action Plan Applicability to matter airport area to an airport- friendly industrial type zoning as proposed in the comprehensive and neighborhood plans. Strategic Initiatives: Williamson The rezoning will allow the Airport Road Area Pin 2, property to have the airport- Roanoke is unique in that its airport pg. 46. friendly industrial type uses is located within the city. Land around specified in the neighborhood the airport should be reserved for plan. land uses that are dependent upon and complement the airport. The airport is an important gateway to Roanoke. Details such as fencing, trees, signs, and streetscapes should be well designed to create a good first impression of Roanoke. The airport is inherently an interesting destination. Site planning could identify observation points and opportunities for interpretive features related to aviation. Comments on Application: Planning Commission Work Session: The proposed uses and infrastructure along Thirlane Road were discussed at the Planning Commission work session. Interdepartmental Comments: General comments were provided from the Western Virginia Water Authority, Fire department, and the Planning Building and Development department related to: water and sewer availability, fire code standards, building and zoning subdivision requirements, and the permitting process. Public Comments: None received. Public Hearing: No comments. 6 Conclusions and Recommendations: The principal consideration is whether the proposed rezoning is consistent with City Plan 2040 and the Williamson Road Area Plan. The proposed change better aligns the zoning of the property to that called for in the comprehensive and neighborhood plan. The rezoning to I-1 , with a condition restricting uses to those compatible with the airport, is in keeping with the overall goals of these plans. PaiYA12,GLZ _ _ PamelaSmith,D.

PROJECT NARRATIVE: Qattam Properties LLC is requesting to rezone 3906 Thirlane Road NW (Tax ID: 6520104) containing approximately 3.310 acres from RA — Residential Agricultural District to II — Industrial District with conditions for the construction of a warehouse facility for their existing business as a primary use with supporting professional office within the existing building. Qattam Properties, LLC is a wholesale distributor of products/supplies for the convenience store industry. Qattam is looking to make a significant investment in the City of Roanoke on property that they currently own but is underutilized. This request further develops industrial property in an appropriate location with the City of Roanoke. A proffered condition is included with the request that allows all Airport District Uses plus professional or general office use which are appropriate in this area, but restricts undesirable uses within the Industrial District as part of the request. Professional or General Office use which is anticipated within the existing building is excluded from the Airport District which is why the subject parcel is being rezoned to I1. The proposed warehouse building will be one-story with an approximate footprint of 28,800 sf. The improvements on-site will include new access points to Thirlane Road to support passenger car, box truck, and tractor trailer access. A small parking area will be provided for the site to serve both the warehouse building and existing building (office) for the business. The site will have typical industrial site improvements including water, sanitary sewer service, stormwater improvements, and include pedestrian improvements along Thirlane Road. City Plan 2040 Future Land Use map identifies this area as Industrial which supports the continued development along this section of Thirlane Road and within this area. The industrial improvements proposed are in keeping with the adjacent area and the priorities set forth by the Lane Use Guidelines for this area. The site is located within the neighborhood planning district of Airport which has a variety of uses within this planning area including commercial, high intensity industrial, office, recreational, and other existing uses. This project exemplifies many of the qualities and attributes expressed within the neighborhood plan for future projects. This project utilizes an existing office building while expanding on-site with proposed warehouse operations in an appropriate location and provides an appropriate context and site design. This project will be developed in accordance with all applicable regulations including, but not limited to, the Roanoke City Zoning Ordinance and Roanoke City Stormwater Management Design Manual. PROFFERED CONDITION TO BE ADOPTED: The applicant hereby agrees to proffer the following conditions as they apply to the Existing tax parcel identified as Official Tax Number 6520104 1.

Alam and K. Kronau absent, the Architectural Review Board adopted the proposed amendments. Background: In Old Southwest, 22 buildings were razed in one year during the 1970s. A non-profit organization, the Old Southwest Neighborhood Alliance, formed that decade to protect the neighborhood. In 1985, the National Park Service listed the Southwest Historic District in the National Register of Historic Places and the Commonwealth of Virginia created a parallel listing in its Virginia Landmarks Register. The historic district is roughly bounded by Salem Avenue, Jefferson Street, the Roanoke River, and 20th Street. In 1987, in response to community interest in preserving the district's historic landscape and following a public process, City Council adopted the H-2 Overlay District. The overlay district originally included all of the Old Southwest, and portions of, the Mountain View and Hurt Park neighborhoods. A portion of the Gainsboro neighborhood was later added to the overlay district. In 1979, City Council established the Architectural Review Board (hereafter ARB) with the stated purpose of protecting designated historic properties against destruction or encroachment of architecturally incompatible buildings and structures within the H-1 District. In 1987, City Council expanded the board's responsibility to include the new H-2 Historic Preservation District. The goals of design review by the ARB are: 1 • to ensure that work on historic buildings preserves architectural features and historic character, • to ensure that new construction is compatible with existing nearby and adjacent buildings, and ■ to pursue all alternatives to demolition of important buildings. Every year, the ARB reviews many applications in administering the historic district regulations adopted by City Council, as they pertain to the city's H-1 and H-2 Historic Districts. In 2023, the ARB reviewed 52 applications: 41 were approved and Certificates of Appropriateness issued, six were denied, and five were withdrawn. In addition, the ARB Agent reviewed and approved 119 Certificates of Appropriateness. The existing H-2 Architectural Design Guidelines (hereafter Guidelines) were adopted September 13, 2007 and most recently updated in 2011 . City Plan 2040 calls for the review and revision of the Guidelines to improve clarity and respond to new technologies and materials. Planning staff and the ARB developed the proposed amendments in multiple work sessions in recent months after review of the Secretary of the Interior Standards for Rehabilitation, multiple design guidelines from other municipalities in the Commonwealth of Virginia, and past ARB case history. The ARB briefed City Council at its March 4 joint meeting and both bodies indicated support for continuing the process. The ARB initiated consideration of the proposed amendments to the Guidelines by motion at its regular meeting on March 14, 2024. Considerations: In 2020, City Council, after a multiple year public process, adopted City Plan 2040 as the City's comprehensive plan. Preserving culturally, historically, and architecturally significant buildings and sites remains a key element in how to grow our community through preservation and context sensitive design. The plan also recommends review and revision of the Architectural Design Guidelines to improve clarity and respond to new technologies and materials. The proposed amendments make changes to four sections of the Guidelines: 1 . Working with the ARB: Aligns the Guidelines with the current timing and process. 2 2. Windows and Doors: Removes the requirement that windows be missing or beyond repair for replacement and allows replacement based on deterioration, clarifies the documentation required in a replacement request, and clarifies character defining windows should be retained. 3. Roofs: Removes the requirement that the roof be beyond repair, clarifies the documentation required in a replacement request, clarifies hidden gutters should be maintained, recommends the use of half-round and ogee gutters with round downspouts, adds additional replacement materials for pressed-metal shingle roofs, clarifies the recommended type of asphalt shingles, and clarifies roofing details to remain. 4. Alternative Energy: Clarifies solar panels are allowed on all structures as specified in the Guidelines. Public Outreach and Comment: The proposed changes were posted on the City's ARB page and sent out via Civic Send on February 25`h. Staff held one open house meeting at the Fishburn Mansion on March 6`h and presented the same information at four neighborhood meetings in March to communicate the proposed changes to the Guidelines. A summary of the comments received is attached. Following the open house and presentations at neighborhood meetings, planning staff and the ARB reviewed the public input and determined that the amendments to the Guidelines as proposed are the best next step as they allow an easier process for work on windows, doors, and roofs and allow additional materials and placement of materials in appropriate locations. Additional items of concern are best addressed outside of the Guidelines through additional outreach, education events, and allowing staff approval for additional items. Public Hearing: Public comment was received in favor and opposition of the proposed amendments to the Guidelines. The comments in favor noted that these changes are positive and allow property owners to make changes more easily to their property. The comments opposed requested allowing solar on all south facing facades, additional time to include more citizen comments, and the desire for additional allowances for sides and rears of buildings, and consideration of historic value of particular properties on Patterson Avenue in the review process. 3 The ARB discussed the comments, stating that the Board reviewed all of the citizen comments and think the amendments as proposed are appropriate as they streamline the process, address concerns regularly seen, and already allow solar installations to be considered on the south-facing facades. Conclusion: The ARB approved the proposed amendments to the Guidelines to improve clarity, respond to new technologies and materials, and allow an easier process to work on particular building elements, while ensuring that such work preserves architectural features and historic character.

Use storm windows and doors to improve the thermal efficiency of existing windows and doors as long as: • they are made of wood or metal and are painted to match the sash, • they are set into the existing window or door opening rather than attached to the frame, • storm windows repeat the pattern of principal muntins and meeting rails, and storm doors are primarily glass, revealing as much of the original door as possible. 11 Do not decrease the size of openings or use reflective glass to achieve energy efficiency. X Do not use window air conditioners on the primary facade of a residence. If necessary, locate window units in openings on less prominent sides of a building.

The use of caulking,weather stripping and exterior storm windows is recommended. Older windows can last for 100 years or more if maintained attentively. Modern windows are unlikely to hold up that long. 'Maintenance Free'Replacement Windows Many replacement windows, in reality, cannot be maintained well or conserved. Vinyl, fiberglass, sealants, desiccants, and coating systems all degrade, and they are materials that remain difficult or impossible to recycle or conserve.
