Kathryn Hedrick, Inclusive Services Manager, reported on the following matters: Tree Removal: Mixed Use Community East Orange Avenue At the City Council summit on Tuesday, December 3, Council Member Vivian Sanchez- Jones inquired about a substantial number of trees being cut down associated with development of apartments along Orange Avenue. The project location is tax map number 7130106 and surrounding areas, near the intersection of Mecca Street and Orange Avenue Report Back: The "Mixed Use Community - East Orange Avenue" development was rezoned as a Planned Unit Development initially at the January 17, 2023 Council meeting and again at the July 15, 2024 meeting. The Planning Department confirmed that the developer was working outside the scope of a proffered development plan (zoning violation), and without the proper land disturbance permitting in place. Planning contacted the developer directly and outlined specifically where they deviated from the approved plan and failed to follow the permitting process. A representative from Thomas Builders has acknowledged their errors and the City's expectation that they take specific steps to course correct by certain deadlines. The situation will be monitored for progress and escalated as appropriate. Parking in Bike Lanes Mr. David Hoopes shared his concern about vehicles parked in designated bike lanes. This creates a safety hazard for cyclists, as they must cross into traffic to avoid parked vehicles. He suggested some type of physical barrier for bike lanes, similar to how a curb separates sidewalk and pedestrians from traffic. As safety increases for cyclists, utilization of cycling as a method of travel will increase. Report Back: Mr. Ross Campbell, Director of Public Works, shared a video that was created with RVTV and Rob Issern, Vision Zero Coordinator. The video shows the different types of lanes cyclists may use, some of which are multi-use and can be used for parking and trash bins and was shared with Mr. Hoopes. Lt. Thompson, Northwest Zone Lieutenant, has already begun ticketing violating vehicles and will tow any inoperable vehicles, as well. The video and Lt. Thompson's efforts have been shared with Mr. Hoopes. He once again expressed his thanks to everyone working to make the City a safer place to travel by bike. "It doesn't go unnoticed or unappreciated." Eureka Park Mr. James Lynch asked that Council consider naming some part of the new Eureka Park Recreation Center after Mr. Brown and Ms. Killen. Report Back: The process of naming City properties requires Council approval, but Parks and Recreation is committed to receiving public input and feedback on some spaces in the new center, including the community room, the gym, and each of the two after school program classrooms. We are also trying to find out more information about the two individuals named by Mr. Lynch. Vacant Council Seat Two residents, EmilyKate Copenhaver and Samantha Newell, encouraged Council to appoint Danny Clawson to Council if a seat is vacated. Report Back: This recommendation has been entered into the record. If there is an open seat, once Council decides how this seat is to be filled, that information will be made available to the public.

The City obtained the Gill Memorial Building from Carilion Services, Inc. via an option agreement dated October 21, 2014 with the intention of housing an acceleration center (later known as the Regional Acceleration and Mentoring Program (RAMP)) focused primarily on connecting early stage companies to peers, mentors and investors and used a $600,000 grant provided by the Virginia Department of Housing and Community Development's (DHCD) Industrial Revitalization Fund to renovate the property. The city subsequently entered into a Management Services Agreement and a Lease Agreement with the Virginia Western Community College Educational Foundation (VWCC) in December 2015, both of which were for the term of five years and which were renewed for an additional five years in with terms similar to the Agreement and Lease being extended with RBIA, which is due to expire on January 31, 2025. RBIA currently operates RAMP within the Gill Memorial Building. The Lease Agreement provides for a nominal annual rent of one dollar per year for a term of three years and is due to expire at the conclusion of this month. It allows for two one-year options for renewal, which they would like to exercise concurrently, and for which the city is seeking approval. Considerations: Among the salient points to consider in relation to this Agreement are the following: • Other than the renewal of the lease, the amendments clarify maintenance related items by putting in place specific responsibilities for each party. While not a material change in responsibilities, clarity has been provided with all parties agreed upon. • RBIA or its designee shall continue to collect subtenant rents and pay all operating expenses. • RBIA's designee the Roanoke-Blacksburg Technology Council will continue to operate RAMP within the Gill Memorial Building, which include the following responsibilities: fundraising efforts, selection of staff and recommendations of specific programs that support entrepreneurs and companies housed within the Acceleration Center. • The city will assist in offsetting any deficit in years when operating expenses exceed operating revenues by providing a cash payment to the Foundation. This payment is not to exceed $25,000 per year. Recommended Action: Approve the terms of the Amendment No. 1 to the Lease Agreement between the City and RBIA, as set forth in the attachment to this report. Authorize the City Manager to execute such Amendment No. 1 to the. Lease Agreement between the City and RBIA, substantially similar to the documents attached to this report, and to execute such other documents and to take such further actions as may be necessary to lease the Property and to implement, administer and enforce such Management Services Agreement and Lease Agreement, with the forms of such Management Services Agreement, Lease Agreement, and any other documents to be approved as to form by the City Attorney.

The property was intended to be an extension of the Brammer Village Office Park to the north and east. At the time, commercial development in the area was limited. To mitigate the impact to the surrounding residential area, the applicant proffered conditions with the rezoning. The proffered conditions regulate the building height, architectural style, use, screening, stormwater management, access, and location of development on the property. 2 In the last thirty years., the surrounding area has developed into a major commercial corridor. The applicant now desires to remove the proffered conditions to allow for development aligned with the district standards in the CG, Commercial General District, and MX, Mixed Use District. The majority of the property zoned MX is already developed as part of the Brammer Village Office Park_ The CG portion of the property is adjacent to Peters Creek Road NW, and it is currently vacant. No proposed use is specified at this time. Proposed Use/Development: The applicant requests that the following proffered conditions enacted by Ordinance No. 32658-092595 be repealed as they pertain to Official Tax Number 6410103: 1 . The property will be developed in substantial conformity with the existing Brammer Village Complex on Official Tax No. 6410101 which adjoins the property to the north. The buildings will vary in size but will all utilize a one story brick with wood trim and hip roof architectural design with the exception of two of the building which will be two stories of the same architectural design. The property will be landscaped to the same extent or more densely than the existing Brammer Village with a mix of' ornamental trees and shrubs. 2_ In order to deal with the increased traffic which will be generated by the retail and commercial use of the Property, Petitioner will reserve a 30-foot wide area across the front of the Property parallel to Peters Creek Road for a frontage access road to be dedicated in the future, in the event the City and/or VDOT go forward with such construction. This area is to be shown on future Comprehensive Site Plans prepared for this property. 3. For the C-2 portion of the Property, Petitioner agrees that the following uses would be excluded from the property: fast-food restaurants, neighborhood and highway convenience stores; outdoor advertising; gas stations; establishments primarily engaged in the sale or rental of automobiles, trucks and construction equipment; automobile cleaning facilities; automobile repair establishments, bus terminals, kennels. 4. Petitioner will preserve existing vegetation and establish a dense vegetation screen around those portions of the property which adjoin property zoned RS-3 in accordance with EXHIBIT C subject to any changes required for screening required by City Comprehensive Development Review. Petitioner will establish the screen at varying widths averaging 20 feet along the northernly boundary adjoining Tax Parcel 6410102, averaging .25 feet along the southeasterly boundary adjoining Tax Parcel 6410116 and 30feet along a portion of the southwesterly boundary 3 adjoining Tax Parcel 6410105, said area identified on said EXHIBIT B as the portion of the property to the west of the "dashed line." Petitioner will preserve the existing vegetative screen within these areas retaining oaks, maples, poplars and other deciduous trees with trunks of at least 4 inch caliper or will substitute compatible plantings to meet City screening requirements. Petitioner will also erect intermittent landscape berms along outside perimeter of the parking area on that portion of the property, which will supplement a mix of deciduous trees such as oak, maple, Bradford pear, and low growing plantings such as juniper, holly, yew and similar ornamental shrubs. 5. Petitioner will provide a boundary survey of the property within 60 days of the filing of this petition which will give the precise location of the C-1 and C-2 portions of the property. 6. Petitioner agrees. to provide a master storm water management plan as part of Comprehensive Development plan review for the project, which will deal with the storm water run-off requirements for the subject property as well as the existing Brammer Village Complex located on official tax number 6410101 . Petitioner agrees that the storm water management facilities will be designed and constructed to take into account the needs of the existing Brammer Village Complex as well as the subject property and will be designed so both of the tracts are serviced by the storm water management facilities with capacity which exceeds the storm water management policies at set forth by the City Engineer. The zoning of the property (Official Tax Number 6410103) is proposed to remain CG, Commercial-General District, and MX, Mixed Use District. No proffered conditions are proposed. Considerations: Compatibility with Surrounding Land Uses: The property is located along the Peters Creek Rd NW commercial corridor. The property is split zoned as CG, Commercial-General District and MX, Mixed Use District. The portion of the property with frontage on Peters Creek Rd NW is zoned as CG and the rear of the property as MX. The portion of the property zoned MX has some vacant land, but it is primarily already developed as part of the Brammer Village Office Park. The portion of the property zoned CG is currently vacant, and it has an existing access point off Peters Creek Rd NW. In the years since the adoption of the proffered conditions, Peters Creek has developed into a highly trafficked commercial corridor with a mix of commercial uses. Generally, development aligned with the purpose of the CG 4 district and the regulations of CG district in the City Code would appropriately regulate the development of this parcel. Zoning District Land Use North CG, Commercial General, with Business Park; Vacant; Various conditions, and general commercial uses beyond Adjoining District: Roanoke County - C-2 High Intensity Commercial District South CLS, Commercial-Large Site, with Motor vehicle sales and service conditions establishment East R-5, Residential District; CG, Single-unit dwellings and Commercial General, with Business Park conditions; and MX, Mixed Use with conditions West CLS, Commercial-Large Site, with Motor vehicle sales and service conditions, and Adjoining District: establishment; Auto service Roanoke County - C-2 High center Intensity Commercial District The future land use plan from the City Plan 2040 designates this area for commercial corridor use. Applicability/Appropriateness of Proposed Zoning District: The zoning of the property is proposed to remain CG, Commercial-General District, along Peters Creek Rd NW and MX, Mixed Use District, for the remainder of the parcel. - 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 5 to accommodate travel-oriented uses such as hotels, motels, and gasoline stations. - The purpose of the MX District is to accommodate residential uses and low-intensity, small scale commercial uses. Dimensional regulations implement neighborhood design principles for urban neighborhoods by controlling building size and building placement. The regulations of the district are intended to protect the character and scale of such a mixed- use development pattern by permitting low-intensity development at a scale that recognizes and respects residential patterns of development. • By removing the proffered conditions, the future development of the property would be more aligned with the purpose of CG and MX districts. Availability of Other Property: The property is located along Peters Creek Rd NW, and it is specified in the comprehensive and neighborhood plans for commercial corridor development. Limited land is available for commercial development along the corridor, especially in the area to the north as proximity to I-581/US 220 increases. Consistency with Comprehensive Plan: Both City Plan 2040 and the Peters Creek North Neighborhood Plan support commercial development of this property.

Comments on Application: Planning Commission Work Session: The proposal to repeal proffered conditions was discussed at the Planning Commission work session on December 6, 2024 and January 10, 2025. Staff conducted a short presentation on the application. Planning Commission asked clarifying questions of Staff about future development potential, process, and impact of the request. 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 received. 7 Conclusions and Recommendations: The principal consideration is whether the repeal of proffered conditions is consistent with City Plan 2040 and the Peters Creek North Neighborhood Plan. The proposed change better aligns the zoning of the property to that called for in the comprehensive and neighborhood plan. The repeal of proffered conditions is in keeping with the overall goals of these plans. C / /// Frank C.

Brammer Village Office Park — Project Narrative: B&A Project#: 04240077.00 Introduction: Rockwood Ranch, LLC, (Owner/Applicant) is requesting to repeal proffered conditions enacted by Ordinance # 32658-092595 on one (1) parcel located at 3011 Peters Creek Road within the City of Roanoke. Base zoning districts of Commercial General (CG) and Mixed Use (MX) will remain in place. Existing Tax Parcel and Zoning Summary: Tax Parce1:6410103 Existing Zoning: CG—Commercial General with conditions MX—Mixed Use with conditions (Existing Ordinance# 32658-092595 September 1995) Proposed Zoning: Commercial General(CG) and MX Mixed Use (MX) Brammer Village Office Park is a commercial development mainly consisting of professional office space along Peters Creek Road. The overall development consists of three (3) tax parcels with the majority of the site already built out with existing improvements. The current request is in regard to the southwestern most parcel with no changes to Tax Parcels 6410133 and 6410101. Tax Parcel 6410103 is currently split zoned Commercial General (CG) and Mixed-Use District (MX) with conditions. The Commercial General (CG) portion of the property (Adjacent to Peters Creek Road) was formerly rezoned in 1995 for future commercial development within the Brammer Village overall development. That zoning request and proposed use Was approved with conditions, but the development never Moved forward to construction. The existing proffered conditions will be repealed as part of the current request to allow for future development of the subject parcel. See Exhibit B"Proffered Conditions to be Repealed" as an attachment contained within the application package. Background and History: Brammer Village Office Park is the vision of Robert C. Brammer, Sr. who grew up on the now developed property when it was a gentleman's manor where cattle,horses,hay, and vegetables supported his father Jesse, mother Maye, sister Doris, and himself. The office complex began by donating the former Brammer home structure to the Roanoke City Fire Department who proceeded to burn it to the ground as a practice exercise. In its place,the first building was constructed at 3039 Peters Creek Road which is now a popular Subway restaurant. As the development grew, Mr. Brammer purchased adjoining land from the estate of Ford Mustard who operated a chicken farm and apple orchard. The Mustard property was added to the facility's master plan and development continued. Page 1 of 2 • As time progressed, Mr. Brammer continued to add buildings to the landscape and today the property boasts twenty buildings with over 80,000 square feet of office space enjoyed by local small business entrepreneurs,professionals, and government agencies. Quiet enjoyment of the facilities, rapid responses to maintenance issues, and a friendly atmosphere are the hallmarks of Brammer Village Office Park and the keys to its success as a professional office landmark in the Roanoke Valley. Future Improvements: Peters Creek Road has seen substantial change over the last thirty (30) years since this ordinance was enacted into place with changes to comprehensive plans, zoning ordinance, development patterns, and land use. This proposed request provides an opportunity for an active and appropriate user to utilize the subject parcel with emphasis on the undeveloped CG portion of the property for proposed improvements. Future Land Use: City Plan 2040 Future Land Use map identifies this area as Commercial Corridor which supports the continued commercial development along this section of Peters Creek Road. This project supports and utilizes the base zoning district for the intended purpose to guide future commercial,development on the subject parcel. Neighborhood Planning: The site is located within the Peters Creek North Neighborhood plan and within the Miller Court Arrowood area. The subject request maintains the base zoning districts that are already in place and concentrates the more intense development along the commercial corridor of Peters Creek Road and decreasing intensity with existing MX district zoning on the eastern portion of the site further from the Peters Creek Road Corridor. City of Roanoke Development Regulations: Any future development will be designed in accordance with all applicable regulations including, but not limited to, the Roanoke City Zoning Ordinance and Roanoke City Stormwater Management Design Manual.

The property will be landscaped to the same extent or more densely than the existing Brammer Village with a mix of ornamental trees and shrubs." 2. "In order to deal with the increased traffic which will be generated by the retail and commercial use of the property, Petitioner will reserve a 30-foot wide area across the front of the property parallel to Peters Creek Road for a frontage access road to be dedicated in the future, in the event the City and/or VDOT go forward with such construction. This area is to be shown on future Comprehensive Site Plans prepared for this property." • v ' Members of Council Page 3 3. "For the C-2 portion of the property, Petitioner agrees that the following uses would be excluded from the property: fast,food restaurants, neighborhood and highway convenience stores; outdoor advertising; gas stations; establishments primarily engaged in the sale or rental of automobiles,trucks and construction equipment; automobile cleaning facilities; automobile repair establishments; bus terminals; kennels." 4. "Petitioner will preserve existing vegetation and establish a dense vegetative screen around those portions of the property which adjoin property zoned RS-3 in accordance with Exhibit C subject to any changes required for screening required by the City Comprehensive Development Review. Petitioner will establish the screen at varying widths averaging 20 feet along the northerly boundary adjoining Tax Parcel 6410102, averaging 25 feet along the southeasterly boundary adjoining Tax Parcel 6410116 and 30 feet along a portion of the southwesterly boundary adjoining Tax Parcel 6410105, said area identified on said Exhibit B as the portion of the property to the west of the'dashed line.' Petitioner will preserve the existing vegetative screen within these areas retaining oaks, maples, poplars and other deciduous trees with trunks of at least a 4-inch caliber, or will substitute compatible plantings to meet City screening requirements. Petitioner will also erect intermittent landscape berms along outside perimeter of the parking area on that portion of the property, which will supplement a mix of deciduous trees such as oak, maple, bradford pear and low growing plantings such as juniper, holly, yew and similar ornamental shrubs." 5. "Petitioner will provide a boundary survey of the property within 60 days of the filing of this petition which will give the precise location of the C-1 and C-2 portions of the property." 6. "Petitioner agrees to provide a master storm water management plan as part of the Comprehensive Development Plan Review for the project, which will deal with the storm water run-off requirements for the subject property as well as the existing Brammer Village Complex located on official tax number 6410101. Petitioner agrees that the storm water management facilities will be designed and constructed to take into account the needs of the existing Brammer Village Complex as well as the subject property and will be designed so both of the tracts are served by storm water management facilities with capacity which exceeds the storm water management policies as set forth by the City Engineer." C. Planning Commission public hearing was held on 8/2/95. The first amended petition and revised concept plan that had been submitted prior to the meeting resolved most of the outstanding issues. Concerns for storm water management in the Peters Creek watershed and on the subject property were discussed by the Commission. Members of Council Page 4 Petitioner's attorney proffered to coordinate drainage facilities and to provide increased storm water management design capacity for the project. The rezoning request was unanimously approved by the Commission. III. Issues: A. Zoning of subject property is RS-3, Residential Single Family, Medium Density District. Requested rezoning is for C-2,General Commercial and C-1, Office District, subject to the above noted conditions. Conditions of the rezoning address use of the property, design of the buildings, and provision of a frontage road. The development plan is not proffered. B. Land use of subject property is presently vacant land. Petitioner proposes to expand an existing office park adjacent to the property. Land use along Peters Creek Road is a combination of office, retail commercial, and light manufacturing. Only a few residential properties remain in this portion of Peters Creek Road. The rear portion of the property abuts a single family residential neighborhood. Several parcels in this area of Peters Creek Road have been rezoned and developed commercially in the past ten years. C. Access to the subject property would be coordinated with the adjacent commercial office park which has access to a median crossing on Peters Creek Road. In addition, a condition of the rezoning would provide land for a future frontage road along the front of the property which essentially could extend from Woodson Honda to the subject property, allowing for improved access through the traffic signal at North Lakes Drive. D. Storm water management along Peters Creek has been an issue in this area. Regional detention areas have been studied for this region to limit the number of individual facilities required and reduce impact of storm water runoff on downstream properties. However, the present likelihood of regional implementation is uncertain and the detention locations studied to date are not in close proximity to the subject property. Consequently, runoff will have to be managed on site. While the best method of storm water management for the property has not been determined at this time, the petitioner has agreed to meet and exceed the city's requirements for storm water management as well as coordinate facilities on the adjacent property and develop a master storm water management plan for the entire development. E. Property is located adjacent to an airport approach zone to runway number 6 and is located within a 60 decibel (dB) day-night average sound level (Ldn) contour. While both residential and commercial uses are permitted within this noise contour level, residential uses are not considered compatible for levels exceeding 65 dB and single family residential uses are considered only marginally compatible for areas above 55 dB. Members of Council Page 5 F. Negghborh o is not represented by an organized neighborhood group. In the past, residents of the neighborhood abutting previous properties requested for rezoning have had concerns regarding buffering, through traffic, and noise that may be generated by new commercial development. The rear third of the property requested for rezoning encroaches upon the residential development of the area. Petitioner has proffered to buffer the development with existing vegetation and landscape screening. G. Comprehensive Plan recommen s that: 1. Neighborhood character and environmental quality should be protected. Changes in land use in or near residential areas should be carefully evaluated and designed to conserve and enhance neighborhood quality. Controls which ensure that new commercial developments are good neighbors should be strengthened where necessary. 2. Development of new commer ial areas should be carefully planned and designed to promote quality development and good land use. 3. Transportation systems (highways, air. etc.)are important to Roanoke's economic development and should be carefully planned. IV. Alternatives: A. City Council approve the rezoning request. 1. Zoning is changed from RS-3 to conditional C-2 and C-1. Proffered conditions address planning concerns. 2. Land use of the property is changed to commercial. Various commercial uses have been excluded from future development in the proffered conditions. 3. Access to the property is to be from Peters Cre k Road. Joint management of traffic ingress and egress is proposed through shared access of the existing median crossing and the opportunity for a future frontage road. 4. Storm water management is to be handled on site according to established city standards and will include a master management plan as well as increased capacity to retain runoff'. 5. Airport noise could affect future development on the property. Commercial development should be encouraged over residential uses. Members of Council Page 6 6. Neighborhood impact minimized. Buffering of adjacent residential uses and retention of existing forested vegetation has been addressed by proffered conditions. 7. Comprehensive plan could be followed. B. City Council deny the rezoning request. 1. Zoning remains RS-3. 2. Future land uses are restricted to those permitted in RS-3 zone. 3. Access is not an issue. 4. Storm water management is not an issue. 5. Airporj noise could be an issue for future residential use . 6. Neighborhood impact is not an issue. 7. Comprehensive Plan may not be followed. Single family residential development is not the most appropriate land use for this property. V. Recommendation: By a vote of 7-0, the Roanoke City Planning Commission iecommended approval of the requested rezoning. Commercial development of the subject property is in keeping with the comprehensive plan and better suited to this portion of Peters Creek Road than residential development. Proffered conditions of the rezoning address planning issues relating to development of the property, storm water management, and buffering of adjacent residential uses.

The facility closed in the late 1950s when its operations were combined with the company's plant in Front Royal, Virginia. The Viscose property was purchased 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 to accommodate smaller industrial users. The demand for industrial users at this property has decreased over time, and the property is proposed to be redevelopment as a mixed-use urban center with residential, commercial, and light industrial users. In February 2024, City Council approved a rezoning of six of the parcels to the D, Downtown District with a condition. The condition requires a traffic study for full project build-out be conducted and approved by the City Transportation Division prior to approval of development plans. The rezoning to Downtown was unconventional, as the property is outside of the traditional downtown area. However, it was the appropriate zoning district at the time given the size and anticipated uses in the development. In March and August of 2024, City Council created the UC, Urban Center District as part of the zoning ordinance. Similar to Downtown, the Urban Center District allows for a mixture of uses, including residential, commercial, and industrial uses that align with the applicants' vision for the property. However, the Urban Center District is not defined by the geographic boundaries of downtown and allows for a few more manufacturing and industrial uses than would be appropriate downtown. The applicants seek to rezone the property to UC, Urban Center District, with a condition. The condition proposed is the same as was previously approved with the rezoning to D, Downtown District, and requires a traffic study. 3 Additionally, since the previous rezoning, additional land has been added to the urban center vision. The property located at Official Tax ID: 41 70106 is currently zoned UF, Urban Flex District, and is proposed to be rezoned as part of this application. Proposed Use/Development: The applicants propose to rezone the property to UC, Urban Center District, with a condition, to enable the redevelopment of the former industrial property into a mixed-use development including residential, commercial, and industrial uses. 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 it pertains to Official Tax Nos. 41 70401 , 4170402, 4170403, 41 70106, 41 70101 , 41 70104, 4170107, 4170108., 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. Considerations: Compatibility with Surrounding Land Uses: The property has been used as a large industrial complex for decades and is located along 9t Street in an area separated from the surrounding community by the 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: chemical, refining or processing, 4 Zoning District Land Use ROS, Recreation and Open Space, not otherwise listed; Warehouse; CN, Commercial-Neighborhood, Outdoor storage with and RM-1 , Residential beyond Park, Retail Sales Establishment, and vacant properties and single- unit dwellings beyond South I-1 , Light Industrial with, Vacant with Roanoke River and ROS, Recreation and Open Space greenway beyond East 1-1 , Light Industrial, and Contractor, general or special ROS, Recreation and Open Space trade; vacant; with Roanoke River and greenway beyond West I-1 , Light Industrial, and 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 Urban Center District is to permit a mixture of retail, office, residential, and light industrial uses in a concentrated pedestrian-friendly area outside of Downtown. The streets form an interconnected grid and accommodate multiple modes of transportation: pedestrian, bicycles, transit, automobiles. Buildings are located adjacent to the sidewalk and often adjoin each other_ Parking is generally concentrated in parking structures or is located to the side or rear of principal buildings. Toward that end, the Urban Center 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) Promote activity on public streets and to protect amenities provided through public investment; and (3) Provide for a mix of high density residential, commercial, retail, government services, entertainment and cultural facilities, and live/work space. The UC, Urban Center District is very similar in function and purpose as the D, Downtown District. Both districts promote a mix of uses and a walkable development pattern. The proposed zoning would bring the area into greater alignment with the zoning code, as the property is located outside of the downtown area. • The future development of the property is also subject to dimensional and development standards of the ordinance. The property is 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. 5 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: The Planning Commission discussed the proposed rezoning at their work sessions on December 6, 2024 and January 10, 2025. During these sessions, Staff conducted a short presentation on the project, and the Planning Commission asked clarifying questions of the application and the general project scope. Interdepartmental Comments: General comments were provided from the Planning Building and Development department related to building and zoning subdivision requirements and the permitting process. Public Comments: No comments received. Public Hearing: No comments received. 3 City-Wide Brownfield Redevelopment Plan Conclusions and Recommendations: The principal consideration is whether the proposed rezoning is consistent with City Plan 2040, Morningsiide/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 UC, Urban Center 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 UC District is appropriate and in keeping with the overall goals of these plans. . , , /// Frank C.

Rezone without proffers-943►ndustry.doe Zoning Amendment 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. All but two smaller parcels were previouslyrezoned in early 2024 to D— Downtown District, but the UC—Urban Center District is better suited to provide the desired use and development standards. 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. As this is a unique location and property,there are not similarly zoned properties nearby. As of the date of the filing,the applicants are not aware of any other parcel in the City of Roanoke zoned OF—Urban Flex. e. Relationship of the proposed amendment to the City's Comprehensive Plan and the applicable Neighborhood Plan. The proposed amendment will allow the project to be developed in a manner to meet many of the themes, land use and urban design set forth in the Comprehensive Plan. {11587/13/00210280.DOCX;2} Proffered Condition to be Adopted The applicant hereby requests that the following proffered condition be adopted as it pertains to Official Tax No(s).4170401,4170402,4170403,4170106,4170101,4170104,4170107,4170108,4250301, 4250303,and 4250305: 1. 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 meeting was advertised to surrounding property owners through a direct mailer sent by the applicant. Background: The Norwich neighborhood is known as a small, historic community that once thrived with factories, mills, grocery stores, churches, and a school. In 2024, the neighborhood was designated on the National Register of Historic Places for unique charm and historic nature. The Walker Machine and Foundry Company operated within the Norwich neighborhood for nearly a century and employed many residents in the neighborhood. The Foundry ceased its operations in 2019 due to pressures in the global marketplace. The Foundry's office and pattern shop buildings were included as places of significance in the neighborhood's designation on the National Register. The proposed rezoning includes eleven parcels - one parcel sized 8.367 acres and ten parcels ranging from 0.056 acres to 0.066 acres - hereafter aereferred to as the "property."The large parcel was the site of the Walker Machine d Foundry Company, and the property son the been east sutilized ide of Bridge Street and Foundry's are closing. The smaller parcels are located vacant. Proposed Use/Development: The applicant proposes to rezone the property to UC, Urban Center District, with a condition, to enable the redevelopment of the former industrial property into a mixed-use development with residential and commercial uses including, but not limited to, multifamily housing, recreational space, a bar and restaurant, and event space. The applicant intends to keep office and pattern shop buildings as part of the overall development plan. Retaining these buildings is not a regulatory requirement in the rezoning. Within the rezoning request, the applicant is proposing a proffered condition that requires a traffic study to be conducted and approved by the City Transportation Division prior to approval of development plans. The traffic study will take into account the full build-out of the project within the area transportation network. The traffic impact analysis is intended 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. The applicant has also requested a right-of-way vacation of an approximately 0.0584 acre portion of Russell Avenue SW at the intersection with Penn Street SW. The right-of-way is thought to be left over from a previous vacation of right- 3 of-way, and it is not necessary for any existing or planned projects. The vacation will facilitate the placement of a private driveway from the development to the public street. Proffered Condition Requested to be Adopted: The applicant hereby requests that the following proffered condition(s) be adopted as they pertain(s) to Official Tax Numbers 1420201 , 1420313, 1420312, 1420311 , 1420310, 1420309, 1420308, 1420307, 1420306, 1420305, and 1420304. 1 . A traffic analysis/study shall be provided to the City of Roanoke as part of the comprehensive development plan review process with the first phase of improvements for the overall project. The analysis/study shall include the planned phase 1 improvements and potential future improvements on the subject parcels with the intent of providing a study that captures the full project build-out. The traffic analysis/study shall be provided based on the agreed upon scope and extent at the time of comprehensive site plan submittal. Considerations: Compatibility with Surrounding Land Uses: The property had been used as a foundry for nearly a century. The property is fronted along Bridge St, which connects the industrial area on the north side of the Roanoke River to the residential and commercial area to the south. Additionally, the northern edge of the property is adjacent to a new section of greenway that runs along the Roanoke River. Zoning District _ Land Use North 1-2, Heavy Industrial and I-1 , Light Roanoke River Greenway, Industrial with ROS, Recreation and Roanoke River, Railroad, Open Space intermixed Warehouse, Outdoor storage, Retail Sales Establishment, and various industrial uses South RM-1 , Residential and CN, Vacant land, vacant commercial Commercial Neighborhood building, single-unit dwellings East 1-1 , Light Industrial, with R-3, Warehouse with retail space, and _ Residential beyond single family homes beyond West 1-2, Heavy Industrial Roanoke River Greenway, Roanoke River, Railroad, Warehouse, Outdoor storage, and various industrial uses 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 Urban Center District is to permit a mixture of retail, office, residential, and light industrial uses in a concentrated pedestrian-friendly area outside of Downtown. The streets form an interconnected grid and accommodate multiple modes of transportation: pedestrian, bicycles, transit, automobiles. Buildings are located adjacent to the sidewalk and often adjoin each other. Parking is generally concentrated in parking structures or is located to the side or rear of principal buildings. Toward that end, the Urban Center 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) Promote activity on public streets and to protect amenities provided through public investment; and (3) Provide for a mix of high density residential, commercial, retail, government services, entertainment and cultural facilities, and live/work space. The property is large enough to create its own small urban center that integrates into the greater Norwich neighborhood. The additional residents and commercial use can help to activate the business activity within the neighborhood center and spur development of the vacant parcels along Bridge Street. Additionally, the property is located along the Roanoke River Greenway system, which increases access to the site via walking, biking, or running, further supporting the intent of the Urban Center District. Following the flood of 1985, the floodway of the Roanoke River was reconfigured, and much of the property is now located outside of the floodplain. A small portion of the property is within the 100-year Floodplain and is subject to the F, Floodplain Overlay District. This portion is not anticipated to affect the overall development plan of the property. Availability of Other Property: The proposed rezoning will facilitate the redevelopment of a large existing industrial area and enable the continued productive use of the property. The Brownfield Redevelopment Plan shows other properties along the Central Roanoke River and Western Roanoke River Corridors that could be well suited for redevelopment as well. The proposed rezoning to Urban Center does not preclude other properties from redevelopment, and it could serve as a catalyst for future projects. 5 Consistency with Comprehensive Plan: City Plan 2040, Norwich Neighborhood Plan, and the City-Wide Brown field Redevelopment Plan encourage the redevelopment of properties within the underutilized industrial areas throughout the City.

The priority action of the Central Brownfield The project is along the corridor is to "convert underutilized Plan, p. 163 border of the Central and property along the river to residential, West corridors in this plan. commercial and recreation uses." The rezoning request supports the priorities for the central corridor by facilitating mixed-use development along the river.

The development is with the neighborhood proposed to have a mix of commercial and residential land that can help facilitate development throughout the rest of the village center. Right of Way Vacation: In tandem of the rezoning request, the applicant has requested a right-of-way vacation of an approximately 0.0584 acre portion of Russell Avenue SW at the intersection with Penn Street SW. The location of the right-of-way is where the applicant anticipates to construct a private driveway from the development to the public street. This location of the driveway facilitates the preservation of existing buildings on site. The right-of-way is not necessary for any existing or planned projects by the City of Roanoke. In order to increase efficiency and limit burden to the public, conditions within Attachment B have been added to the ordinance for City Council consideration. Comments on Application: Planning Commission Work Session: The Planning Commission discussed the proposed rezoning at their work sessions on December 6, 2024 and January 10, 2025. After a short presentation by Staff, the Planning Commission asked clarifying questions of the application, specifically regarding the review process for future development plans. Interdepartmental Comments: General comments were provided from the Western Virginia Water Authority, Fire department, Transportation 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. The comments from the Transportation Department were address in Amended Application No. 1 with the proposed proffered condition. Public Comments: Three public comments were received ahead of the January 13, 2025 Planning Commission meeting. All comments were in support of the project highlighting excitement about the vision, connection with the Greenway, and increased 7 amenities in the neighborhood. Written public comments are provided in Attachment C. Public Hearing: One member of the public spoke in support of the project during the public hearing. He highlighted support for redevelopment of previously used property. The Planning Commissioners discussed the project, and four Commissioners expressed support of the rezoning and how it furthers the goals of the 2040 Comprehensive Plan with regard to walkability and developing neighborhood centers. Conclusions and Recommendations: The principal consideration is whether the proposed rezoning is consistent with City Plan 2040, Norwich Neighborhood Plan, and City-Wide Brown field Redevelopment Plan_ All of the plans support the productive use of land, revitalization of unused industrial property, and generation of neighborhood centers. The proposed rezoning to UC, Urban Center District with a condition is in keeping with the overall goals of these plans. P2Ca Ni a i/, /// Frank C.

Hello Ms. Gray, I'm not able to attend the public hearing on 1/13/25, for rezoning of the Walker Machine and Foundry site, but I wanted to lend my support to Mr. Kaknes' proposal. I am a close by neighbor to the site. After hearing the proposal, I believe if done well it would make a positive impact on our community by bringing a vibrancy to this sort of wasteland area, as well as tie in with the greenway, and become a i place where neighbors and greenway users could gather together. I support Mr. Kaknes' efforts in realizing this vision. Thank you for taking my thoughts into consideration.

Good morning, I am writing to express my strong support for the redevelopment of The Foundry in Norwich. This project represents an exciting opportunity to revitalize a location with deep historical significance to our community, and I believe it will bring substantial benefits to our neighborhood. 1 Mr. Kaknes has done an excellent job maintaining open communication with residents throughout the planning process, ensuring that the community's voices are heard and incorporated into the project. This thoughtful approach has helped build confidence in the redevelopment's positive potential. Norwich and the broader Roanoke area are in need of additional housing, and this project would help address that demand while enhancing the appeal of our neighborhood. The prospect of adding amenities, such as a new restaurant, is especially exciting and would contribute to making Norwich a vibrant and welcoming place to live. I am confident that this redevelopment will attract new residents, support local businesses, and make Norwich a community where people are proud to live and work. Thanks so much, Jessica Thomasson President, Norwich Neighborhood Association 2 gAet� it i rtti, i.F ; j ki .piIi1 tea ®� r Department of Planning,Building and Development Room 170,Noel C.Taylor Municipal Building 215 Church Avenue,S.W.

Walker Foundry Redevelopment - Project Narrative: Introduction: The Foundry Realty, LLC, (Applicant) has a two-part request for the proposed project. 1. Applicant is requesting to rezone eleven (11) parcels to Urban Center District (UC) for the redevelopment of the former Walker Foundry location along Bridge Street, Russell Avenue, and Penn Street. The Foundry Realty, LLC "TFRLLC" is the current contract purchaser of the parcels. 2. The applicant is requesting to vacate a portion of the public right of way of Russell Avenue SW. More specifically located at the intersection of Penn Street SW. This area is a small triangular piece of existing public right of way that appears to be left over from the previous vacation of Russell Avenue SW. This vacation is located just South and East of Tax Parcel 1420201. Extensive study of the history of the Norwich neighborhood and that of the Walker Machine and Foundry Company has been undertaken in developing this project and this request for the zoning amendment. Our intent is to recognize this history, celebrate its' legacy and incorporate that into the proposed improvements and development patterns. As it is Our intent on total transparency with our neighbors,we have embarked on an outreach program to share details regarding the project. We have shared our vision for the project and invited all the area residents to an information session including tours of the site with any who were interested. Local community support is vital to our mission. As it is our intention that this investment will improve all of Norwich, the greater Roanoke Valley, and we are ecstatic with the positive reception of our neighbors to this plan. Page 1 of 5 Existing Tax Parcel and Zoning Summary: Tax Parcel:1420201 (8.36 ac.) 2415 Russell Avenue Roanoke,VA Existing Zoning: I2—Heavy Industrial Proposed Zoning: UC—Urban Center Tax Parcels: 1420304 (0.05 ac.) - 0 Bridge Street Roanoke, VA 1420305 (0.06 ac.) - 0 Bridge Street Roanoke, VA 1420306 (0.06 ac.) - 0 Bridge Street Roanoke, VA 1420307 (0.06 ac.)—641 Bridge Street Roanoke, VA 1420308 (0.06 ac.) - 0 Bridge Street Roanoke, VA 1420309 (0.06 ac.) - 0 Bridge Street Roanoke, VA 1420310 (0.06 ac.) 0 Bridge Street Roanoke, VA 1420311 (0.06 ac.) - O Bridge Street Roanoke, VA 1420312 (0.06 ac.) - 0 Bridge Street Roanoke, VA 1420313 (0.06 ac.) - 0 Bridge Street Roanoke, VA Existing Zoning: I1 —Light Industrial Proposed Zoning: UC—Urban Center Page 2 of 5 Background and History: With the arrival of the Norfolk and Western Railway to the Roanoke Valley in 1882, the area along the Roanoke River became a prime site for industrial development. In 1890, the Roanoke Development Company purchased most of what is now known as Norwich. Soon after, heavy industrial companies such as the Norwich Lock Company(latter known as the Cotton Mill and subsequently the Twine Mill) and many other industrial manufacturers found their home in Norwich. In 1920, a group of local Roanoke investors formed the Walker Machine and Foundry Company located at 2415 Russell Ave SW in Norwich. For 100 years, "The Foundry" employed thousands of local residents and produced an array of metal products supporting both government and private sector industry throughout the US. At the turn of this century, The Foundry was beset by foreign competition and ultimately could not compete. In 2019, Walker Machine and Foundry ceased their operations and said goodbye to their last employees. Around the time of the Foundry's demise, Roanoke was embarking a on re-branding away from river front heavy industry and towards mixed use residential, commercial and recreational uses. After agreeing to sell approximately four(4) acres of land along the Roanoke River to the City, The Foundry found itself front and center in this exciting transformation. With almost five hundred (500)yards of frontage along the newly completed Norwich section of the Roanoke River Greenway and frontage on Bridge Street, this location became a prime location to incorporate the ideals and vision espoused by the City of creating an accessible place to live, recreate and commute to work on bicycle by way of the Greenway. Development and Zoning District of the Property: TFRLLC intends to redevelop the former foundry property into an active community consisting of commercial and residential uses for a mixed-use community. The Urban Center District designation will allow for this opportunity for flexibility with redevelopment improvements when considering maintaining existing buildings within the property. The main tract identified as tax parcel 1420201 and consisting of approximately 8.3 acres will be the primary nexus of the improvements with supplemental development on the perimeter. This property is adjacent to ten(10)parcels to the East across Bridge Street that are also included in the project for future redevelopment. The development pattern and use are undetermined at this time, but plan to complement the proposed improvements for this corridor with possible single and duplex family housing units that are an integral part of the history of Norwich. The main parcel will consist of both commercial and residential uses. The Eastern portion of the site will be the primary focus of a commercial area appealing to families,will include a restaurant located in the original machine shop (The Foundry Bar and Grill) along with recreational activities such as pickleball courts, shuffleboard, corn hole, bicycling and river access. It is the intent Of the project to maintain the majority of the structures in place today Page 3 of 5 and utilize these buildings for historic context so these buildings can 'tell the story'of the history of the site. The remaining portion of the site on the western side will be utilized for a future multi-family residential project. The proposed improvements are generally indicated on the concept plan provided as Exhibit A and Exhibit B is a previous survey of the existing main parcel. A small leftover"triangle shaped"portion of the public right of way of Russell Avenue SW is proposed to be absorbed with the overall development tract. The public right of ways along the frontage of the development area will be improved including curb and gutter, sidewalk, and street trees as applicable and where they do not exist today. This project is located in an existing and dynamic area adjacent to the Roanoke Valley Greenway system and this project will directly connect to this infrastructure for patrons and the public to utilize. Public Right of Way Vacation: The proposed vacation is outlined within the Exhibit D portion of the zoning amendment application. (GIS Aerial Location, Right of Way Vacation Survey Exhibit, Legal Description) The vacation of a small portion of residual public right of way of Russell Avenue SW will create an opportunity for right of way uniformity and ability to improve this . area with both public and private improvements including curb and gutter, sidewalk, landscape strips, and access to the subject main development parcel. Future Land Use: City Plan 2040 Future Land Use map identifies this area as Industrial which supports the existing use that has been in place. As appropriate to blend with surrounding properties, a mixed use development consisting of commercial and residential will be provided to better mesh with the surrounding land uses. Even though different uses are proposed, the appropriate redevelopment efforts and neighborhood integration will be important. This project exemplifies the commercial/residential intent of the proposed land use in lieu of heavy industrial. • Page 4 of 5 Neighborhood Planning: The site is located within the Norwich neighborhood planning district which has a variety of uses/sub-development areas within this planning area of residential, commercial, and industrial. The area of the project historically has had a single use of heavy industrial and this project plans to change the use to active and vibrant for all to utilize with commercial and residential components to serve the neighborhood and greater City. This project exemplifies many of the qualities and attributes expressed within the neighborhood plan for redevelopment efforts. The character will be maintained by balancing the preservation of the existing buildings with new construction. This project balances commercial and residential uses on the property in an appropriate location with context of preservation and site design. City of Roanoke Development Regulations: 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.

The meeting was advertised to surrounding property owners through a direct mailer sent by the applicant. Background: The Norwich neighborhood is known as a small, historic community that once thrived with factories, mills, grocery stores, churches, and a school. In 2024, the neighborhood was designated on the National Register of Historic Places for unique charm and historic nature. The Walker Machine and Foundry Company operated within the Norwich neighborhood for nearly a century and employed many residents in the neighborhood. The Foundry ceased its operations in 2019 due to pressures in the global marketplace. The Foundry's office and pattern shop buildings were included as places of significance in the neighborhood's designation on the National Register. The proposed rezoning includes eleven parcels - one parcel sized 8.367 acres and ten parcels ranging from 0.056 acres to 0.066 acres - hereafter referred to as the "property." The large parcel was the site of the Walker Machine and Foundry Company, and the property has not been utilized since the Foundry's closing. The smaller parcels are located on the east side of Bridge Street and are vacant. Proposed Use/Development: The applicant proposes to rezone the property to UC, Urban Center District, with a condition, to enable the redevelopment of the former industrial property into a mixed-use development with residential and commercial uses including, but not limited to, multifamily housing, recreational space, a bar and restaurant, and event space. The applicant intends to keep office and pattern shop buildings as part of the overall development plan. Retaining these buildings is not a regulatory requirement in the rezoning. Within the rezoning request, the applicant is proposing a proffered condition that requires a traffic study to be conducted and approved by the City Transportation Division prior to approval of development plans. The traffic study will take into account the full build-out of the project within the area transportation network. The traffic impact analysis is intended 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. The applicant has also requested a right-of-way vacation of an approximately 0.0584 acre portion of Russell Avenue SW at the intersection with Penn Street SW. The right-of-way is thought to be left over from a previous vacation of right- 3 of-way, and it is not necessary for any existing or planned projects. The vacation will facilitate the placement of a private driveway from the development to the public street. Proffered Condition Requested to be Adopted: The applicant hereby requests that the following proffered condition(s) be adopted as they pertain(s) to Official Tax Numbers 1420201 , 1420313, 1420312, 1420311 , 1420310, 1420309, 1420308, 1420307, 1420306, 1420305, and 1420304. 1 . A traffic analysis/study shall be provided to the City of Roanoke as part of the comprehensive development plan review process with the first phase of improvements for the overall project. The analysis/study shall include the planned phase 1 improvements and potential future improvements on the subject parcels with the intent of providing a study that captures the full project build-out. The traffic analysis/study shall be provided based on the agreed upon scope and extent at the time of comprehensive site plan submittal. Considerations: Compatibility with Surrounding Land Uses: The property had been used as a foundry for nearly a century. The property is fronted along Bridge St, which connects the industrial area on the north side of the Roanoke River to the residential and commercial area to the south. Additionally, the northern edge of the property is adjacent to a new section of greenway that runs along the Roanoke River. Zoning District Land Use North 1-2, Heavy Industrial and 1-1 , Light Roanoke River Greenway, Industrial with ROS, Recreation and Roanoke River, Railroad, Open Space intermixed Warehouse, Outdoor storage, Retail Sales Establishment, and various industrial uses South RM-1 , Residential and CN, Vacant land, vacant commercial Commercial Neighborhood building, single-unit dwellings East I-1 , Light Industrial, with R-3, Warehouse with retail space, and Residential beyond single family homes beyond West 1-2, Heavy Industrial Roanoke River Greenway, Roanoke River, Railroad, Warehouse, Outdoor storage, and various industrial uses 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 Urban Center District is to permit a mixture of retail, office, residential, and light industrial uses in a concentrated pedestrian-friendly area outside of Downtown. The streets form an interconnected grid and accommodate multiple modes of transportation: pedestrian, bicycles, transit, automobiles. Buildings are located adjacent to the sidewalk and often adjoin each other. Parking is generally concentrated in parking structures or is located to the side or rear of principal buildings. Toward that end, the Urban Center 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) Promote activity on public streets and to protect amenities provided through public investment; and (3) Provide for a mix of high density residential, commercial, retail, government services, entertainment and cultural facilities, and live/work space. The property is large enough to create its own small urban center that integrates into the greater Norwich neighborhood. The additional residents and commercial use can help to activate the business activity within the neighborhood center and spur development of the vacant parcels along Bridge Street. Additionally, the property is located along the Roanoke River Greenway system, which increases access to the site via walking, biking, or running, further supporting the intent of the Urban Center District. Following the flood of 1985, the floodway of the Roanoke River was reconfigured, and much of the property is now located outside of the floodplain. A small portion of the property is within the 100-year Floodplain and is subject to the F, Floodplain Overlay District. This portion is not anticipated to affect the overall development plan of the property. Availability of Other Property: The proposed rezoning will facilitate the redevelopment of a large existing industrial area and enable the continued productive use of the property. The Brownfield Redevelopment Plan shows other properties along the Central Roanoke River and Western Roanoke River Corridors that could be well suited for redevelopment as well. The proposed rezoning to Urban Center does not preclude other properties from redevelopment, and it could serve as a catalyst for future projects. 5 Consistency with Comprehensive Plan: City Plan 2040, Norwich Neighborhood Plan, and the City-Wide Brownfield Redevelopment Plan encourage the redevelopment of properties within the underutilized industrial areas throughout the City.

The priority action of the Central Brownfield The project is along the corridor is to "convert underutilized Plan, p. 163 border of the Central and property along the river to residential, West corridors in this plan. commercial and recreation uses." The rezoning request supports the priorities for the central corridor by facilitating mixed-use development along the river. City Plan 2040, City of Roanoke, 2020 2 Norwich Neighborhood Plan, City of Roanoke, 2003 3 City-Wide Brownfield Redevelopment Plan 6 Policy/Action Plan Applicability to matter Village center development along 13th Brownfield The proposed rezoning allows Street and Bridge Street should be Plan, p. 233 for the expansion of the encouraged and commercial village center along Bridge establishments should be compatible Street. The development is with the neighborhood proposed to have a mix of commercial and residential land that can help facilitate development throughout the rest of the village center. Right of Way Vacation: In tandem of the rezoning request, the applicant has requested a right-of-way vacation of an approximately 0.0584 acre portion of Russell Avenue SW at the intersection with Penn Street SW_ The location of the right-of-way is where the applicant anticipates to construct a private driveway from the development to the public street. This location of the driveway facilitates the preservation of existing buildings on site. The right-of-way is not necessary for any existing or planned projects by the City of Roanoke. In order to increase efficiency and limit burden to the public, conditions within Attachment B have been added to the ordinance for City Council consideration. Comments on Application: Planning Commission Work Session: The Planning Commission discussed the proposed rezoning at their work sessions on December 6, 2024 and January 10, 2025. After a short presentation by Staff, the Planning Commission asked clarifying questions of the application, specifically regarding the review process for future development plans. Interdepartmental Comments: General comments were provided from the Western Virginia Water Authority, Fire department, Transportation 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. The comments from the Transportation Department were address in Amended Application No. 1 with the proposed proffered condition. Public Comments: Three public comments were received ahead of the January 13, 2025 Planning Commission meeting. All comments were in support of the project highlighting excitement about the vision, connection with the Greenway, and increased 7 amenities in the neighborhood. Written public comments are provided in Attachment C. Public Hearing: One member of the public spoke in support of the project during the public hearing. He highlighted support for redevelopment of previously used property. The Planning Commissioners discussed the project, and four Commissioners expressed support of the rezoning and how it furthers the goals of the 2040 Comprehensive Plan with regard to walkability and developing neighborhood centers. Conclusions and Recommendations: The principal consideration is whether the proposed rezoning is consistent with City Plan 2040, Norwich Neighborhood Plan, and City-Wide Brown field Redevelopment Plan. All of the plans support the productive use of land, revitalization of unused industrial property, and generation of neighborhood centers. The proposed rezoning to UC, Urban Center District with a condition is in keeping with the overall goals of these plans. ,2afra C /// Frank C.

Hello Ms. Gray, I'm not able to attend the public hearing on 1/13/25, for rezoning of the Walker Machine and Foundry site, but I wanted to lend my support to Mr. Kaknes' proposal. I am a close by neighbor to the site. After hearing the proposal, I believe if done well it would make a positive impact on our community by bringing a vibrancy to this sort of wasteland area, as well as tie in with the greenway, and become a i place where neighbors and greenway users could gather together. I support Mr. Kaknes' efforts in realizing this vision. Thank you for taking my thoughts into consideration.

Good morning, I am writing to express my strong support for the redevelopment of The Foundry in Norwich. This project represents an exciting opportunity to revitalize a location with deep historical significance to our community, and I believe it will bring substantial benefits to our neighborhood. 1 Mr. Kaknes has done an excellent job maintaining open communication with residents throughout the planning process, ensuring that the community's voices are heard and incorporated into the project. This thoughtful approach has helped build confidence in the redevelopment's positive potential. Norwich and the broader Roanoke area are in need of additional housing, and this project would help address that demand while enhancing the appeal of our neighborhood. The prospect of adding amenities, such as a new restaurant, is especially exciting and would contribute to making Norwich a vibrant and welcoming place to live. I am confident that this redevelopment will attract new residents, support local businesses, and make Norwich a community where people are proud to live and work.

Walker Foundry Redevelopment - Project Narrative: Introduction: The Foundry Realty,LLC, (Applicant)has a two-part request for the proposed project. 1. Applicant is requesting to rezone eleven (11) parcels to Urban Center District (UC) for the redevelopment of the former Walker Foundry location along Bridge Street, Russell Avenue, and Penn Street. The Foundry Realty, LLC "TFRLLC" is the current contract purchaser of the parcels. 2. The applicant is requesting to vacate a portion of the public right of way of Russell Avenue SW. More specifically located at the intersection of Penn Street SW. This area is a small triangular piece of existing public right of way that appears to be left over from the previous vacation of Russell Avenue SW. This vacation is located just South and East of Tax Parcel 1420201. Extensive study of the history of the Norwich neighborhood and that of the Walker Machine and Foundry Company has been undertaken in developing this project and this request for the zoning amendment. Our intent is to recognize this history, celebrate its' legacy and incorporate that into the proposed improvements and development patterns. As it is our intent on total transparency with our neighbors, we have embarked on an outreach program to share details regarding the project. We have shared our vision for the project and invited all the area residents to an information session including tours of the site with any who were interested. Local community support is vital to our mission. As it is our intention that this investment will improve all of Norwich, the greater Roanoke Valley, and we are ecstatic with the positive reception of our neighbors to this plan.

In 1890, the Roanoke Development Company purchased most of what is now known as Norwich. Soon after, heavy industrial companies such as the Norwich Lock Company(latter known as the Cotton Mill and subsequently the Twine Mill) and many other industrial manufacturers found their home in Norwich. In 1920, a group of local Roanoke investors formed the Walker Machine and Foundry Company located at 2415 Russell Ave SW in Norwich. For 100 years, "The Foundry" employed thousands of local residents and produced an array of metal products supporting both government and private sector industry throughout the US. At the turn of this century, The Foundry was beset by foreign competition and ultimately could not compete. In 2019, Walker Machine and Foundry ceased their operations and said goodbye to their last employees. Around the time of the Foundry's demise, Roanoke was embarking a on re-branding away from river front heavy industry and towards mixed use residential, commercial and recreational uses. After agreeing to sell approximately four(4) acres of land along the Roanoke River to the City, The Foundry found itself front and center in this exciting transformation. With almost five hundred(500)yards of frontage along the newly completed Norwich section of the Roanoke River Greenway and frontage on Bridge Street, this location became a prime location to incorporate the ideals and vision espoused by the City of creating an accessible place to live,recreate and commute to work on bicycle by way of the Greenway. Development and Zoning District of the Property: TFRLLC intends to redevelop the former foundry property into an active community consisting of commercial and residential uses for a mixed-use community. The Urban Center District designation will allow for this opportunity for flexibility with redevelopment improvements when considering maintaining existing buildings within the property. The main tract identified as tax parcel 1420201 and consisting of approximately 8.3 acres will be the primary nexus of the improvements with supplemental development on the perimeter. This property is adjacent to ten(10)parcels to the East across Bridge Street that are also included in the project for future redevelopment. The development pattern and use are undetermined at this time, but plan to complement the proposed improvements for this corridor with possible single and duplex family housing units that are an integral part of the history of Norwich. The main parcel will consist of both commercial and residential uses. The Eastern portion of the site will be the primary focus of a commercial area appealing to families,will include a restaurant located in the original machine shop (The Foundry Bar and Grill) along with recreational activities such as pickleball courts, shuffleboard, corn hole, bicycling and river access. It is the intent of the project to maintain the majority of the structures in place today Page 3 of 5 and utilize these buildings for historic context so these buildings can 'tell the story'of the history of the site. The remaining portion of the site on the western side will be utilized for a future multi-family residential project. The proposed improvements are generally indicated on the concept plan provided as Exhibit A and Exhibit B is a previous survey of the existing main parcel. A small leftover"triangle shaped"portion of the public right of way of Russell Avenue SW is proposed to be absorbed with the overall development tract. The public right of ways along the frontage of the development area will be improved including curb and gutter, sidewalk, and street trees as applicable and where they do not exist today. This project is located in an existing and dynamic area adjacent to the Roanoke Valley Greenway system and this project will directly connect to this infrastructure for patrons and the public to utilize. Public Right of Way Vacation: The proposed vacation is outlined within the Exhibit D portion of the zoning amendment application. (GIS Aerial Location, Right of Way Vacation Survey Exhibit, Legal Description) The vacation of a small portion of residual public right of way of Russell Avenue SW will create an opportunity for right of way uniformity and ability to improve this area with both public and private improvements including curb and gutter, sidewalk, landscape strips, and access to the subject main development parcel. Future Land Use: City Plan 2040 Future Land Use map identifies this area as Industrial which supports the existing use that has been in place. As appropriate to blend with surrounding properties, a mixed use development consisting of commercial and residential will be provided to better mesh with the surrounding land uses. Even though different uses are proposed, the appropriate redevelopment efforts and neighborhood integration will be important. This project exemplifies the commercial/residential intent of the proposed land use in lieu of heavy industrial. Page 4 of 5 Neighborhood Planning: The site is located within the Norwich neighborhood planning district which has a variety of uses/sub-development areas within this planning area of residential, commercial, and industrial. The area of the project historically has had a single use of heavy industrial and this project plans to change the use to active and vibrant for all to utilize with commercial and residential components to serve the neighborhood and greater City. This project exemplifies many of the qualities and attributes expressed within the neighborhood plan for redevelopment efforts. The character will be maintained by balancing the preservation of the existing buildings with new construction. This project balances commercial and residential uses on the property in an appropriate location with context of preservation and site design. City of Roanoke Development Regulations: 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.
