The City Manager shared the following comments: I'm pleased to share that Roanoke City Parks and Recreation recently hosted the 2025 Virginia Recreation and Park Society (VRPS)Annual Conference, held here in Roanoke from October 26 through 29. This event brought together more than 400 parks and recreation professionals from across the Commonwealth for four days of learning, networking, and celebrating the best in their field. Conference highlights included a Disc Golf Tournament Pre-Con, guided tours of the City's evolving outdoor spaces, including In River Park, the Skatepark, and the Eureka Recreation Center construction sites, an E-Bike Tour of the City, and a Walking Art Tour of Downtown. The conference concluded with the VRPS Awards Banquet, recognizing outstanding programs, facilities, and individuals from across Virginia. I'm proud to share that Roanoke City Parks and Recreation received two distinguished honors: • The Best New Renovation or Addition of a Greenway, Park, or Trail award for the Tinker Creek Greenway Phase 2A, and; • The VRPS President's Award, recognizing the Department's exceptional contributions in organizing and hosting this year's statewide conference. I want to extend sincere appreciation to our Parks and Recreation team for their leadership, dedication, and professionalism in showcasing Roanoke as a model for recreation excellence in Virginia. I'm pleased to share that at the 2025 International City/County Management Association (ICMA) Conference held in Tampa, Florida, the City of Roanoke received a Program Excellence Award for the Roanoke Pollinator Partnership, a Bee City USA initiative. This recognition highlights the City's strong commitment to creating pollinator-friendly habitats, promoting biodiversity, and engaging our community in environmental stewardship. Through the Roanoke Pollinator Partnership, the City and its partners have developed and maintained pollinator gardens, provided educational programming for residents and schools, and built collaborative partnerships with local organizations to advance pollinator conservation efforts throughout the community. Mr. Roman and I had the honor of accepting this award on behalf of the organization at the ICMA Conference, and it was truly a pleasure to see Roanoke's leadership and innovation recognized on a national stage. I'm pleased to report the completion of the pedestrian steps replacement project at Laurel Street and Belleview Avenue in Southeast Roanoke, led by the Public Works Engineering Division. This project strengthens a vital pedestrian connection between the Riverland and Walnut Hill neighborhoods and the Roanoke River Greenway, enhancing accessibility and safety for residents and visitors alike. The previous concrete steps had significantly deteriorated over time and were replaced with a durable new structure designed to meet current safety and accessibility standards. Improvements include tread and riser dimensions optimized for safety, handrails that meet modern codes, and surface treatments that increase traction and reduce slip hazards in wet conditions. In addition, the historic stone pillars at the base of the steps were carefully preserved and integrated into the new construction, maintaining the character and historic identity of the neighborhood while incorporating modern engineering and safety features. This project supports the City's ongoing goals of promoting walkability, expanding greenway access, and ensuring long-term maintenance of neighborhood infrastructure, reflecting our commitment to safe and vibrant community spaces. 2.

Background: : The City of Roanoke receives annual entitlement funds from the U.S. Department of Housing and Community Development (HUD) under the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), HOME Investment Partnerships (HOME) and Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG) programs. HUD requires each locality receiving entitlement funds to develop.a Five-Year Consolidated Plan (ConPlan) together with an Annual Action Plan (Annual Plan or Action Plan) detailing how such entitlement funding will be spent. The City successfully submitted its PY25 Annual Action Plan to HUD in August 2025. At this time, the City is proposing to amend the PY25 Annual Action Plan. Proposed changes include the use of available Community Development Block Grant (CDBG)funds to support code enforcement activities aimed at addressing blight in targeted neighborhoods, and to provide funding for Lead Safe Roanoke—a program designed to reduce lead poisoning in children by stabilizing lead-based paint hazards in rental and owner-occupied homes built in the City of Roanoke before 1978. Considerations: The City is proposing to use available CDBG funds for code enforcement activities and Lead Safe Roanoke, meaning no other awarded programs will be impacted by this change. Recommended Action: Concur in the request. Valmarie Turner, City Manager City Manager's Report � Submitted by: Jillian Papa, Director Planning, Building, & Development ROAN O KE November 3, 2025 Title_ : Authorize and schedule a 30-day public comment period to begin October 31, 2025, and a public hearing to be held on November 21, 2025, at 3:00 pm, or as soon thereafter as the matter may be heard, or such later date and time as the City Manager may determine, in accordance with the Citizen Participation Plan, with regard to the development of the HUD Entitlement PY26 Annual Action Plan. Background: The City of Roanoke is initiating the development of its 2026 Annual Action Plan for submission to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The Annual Action Plan outlines how the City intends to use federal entitlement funds, including the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), HOME Investment Partnerships (HOME), and Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG) programs, to address local housing and community development needs. The City estimates approximately $2.6 million in funds may be available by HUD for the 2026-2027 program year, which begins July 1, 2026. The City anticipates submission of the spending plan in late Spring 2026. The City invites residents, organizations, and other stakeholders to participate in this process by providing input on community needs, priorities for housing and community development, and feedback on how funds have been used in past program years. Additionally, residents of public housing and assisted housing developments are encouraged to participate. Comments and suggestions will help inform funding priorities and strategies for the 2026 program year. Recommended Action: Concur in the request.

Submitted by: Ross Campbell, PE, Director Department of Public Works ROAN O KE November 3, 2025 Title: Acquisition of Real Property Rights for Mountain Avenue, NW Culvert Repair Project. Background: The City's Stormwater Utility initiated a repair to a damaged culvert under Mountain Avenue;. NW. The culvert connects a natural drainage that is bisected by the street. The culvert was damaged and a repair was needed to prevent flooding of upstream properties and the street. To closeout the work a permanent easement is needed on the downstream properties.. It was also discovered that a portion of Mountain Road is not public right-of-way so purchase of property for right-of-way purpose is also proposed. Considerations: For long-term operation and maintenance of the drainage improvements, the City must acquire real property rights from the adjacent property owners. These include permanent drainage easements of variable length and width affecting two (2) parcels in the project vicinity as well as the purchase of approximately 4,250 square feet of property for right-of-way. Final location and dimensions may vary slightly based on site survey and property owner preference. Funds are available in the Stormwater ICIP-In-House Projects multi-year account (503-3010-0000-69060-300024).

ATTEST: • • City Clerk. ,_ % City Manager's Report /Of' Submitted by: Cindy McFall, Director Parks and Recreation ROANOKE November 3, 2025 Title: . Approval of the Mill Mountain Trail Plan — Renaming of Trails. Background: In the summer of 2023, the Parks Foundation began planning a major capital project fundraising campaign, defining a scope to implement a significant number of the remaining inbuilt trails on Mill Mountain in an expedited timeline by hiring a specialty contractor. In early 2024, working with staff and an outside consultant, the Foundation developed proposed alignments to execute Corridors 5, 7, and 8 identified in the Mill Mountain Trails Plan Amendment. At the June 2, 2025, City Council Meeting, Council approved the naming of these new trails as requested by the Foundation. Those approved names are as follows: Corridor 5: Turnpike Corridor 7A (climbing trail): 611 Corridor 7B (easy downhill mountain biking): Happy Camper Corridor 7C (moderate downhill mountain biking): Stoke City Corridor 7D (challenging downhill mountain biking): Bloodroot Corridor 8: John Peake Pass, named in memory of local cyclist John Peake and in recognition of his family's generous support of this project. Since that time, the Foundation has decided that it would like to rename one of these trails and name an additional trail that was added to the project scope. Considerations: The trail name changes requested by the Parks Foundation for the new Mill Mountain Trails funded by the group are as follows: Corridor 5: Change from Turnpike to Revercomb Run in honor of James Venable Revercomb, Jr. Corridor 7: This trail had a new alternate downhill line added off of Bloodroot. This new alternate line would be named "Fall Line" and the rest will remain Bloodroot. Recommended Action: Approve the new Mill Mountain trail names as presented here. The trail name changes requested by the Parks Foundation for the new Mill Mountain Trails funded by the group are as follows: Corridor 5: Change from Turnpike to Revercomb Run in honor of James Venable Revercomb, Jr. Corridor 7: This trail had a new alternate downhill line added off of Bloodroot. This new alternate line would be named "Fall Line" and the rest will remain Bloodroot. Valmarie Turner, City Manager STATEMENT OF CONFLICT OF INTEREST I, S.

PFM also aimed to help the City clearly communicate its financial challenges — and their underlying drivers — to help inform future decisions. There are two primary components to our approach: • Financial Condition Assessment to evaluate the City of Roanoke's fiscal health and long-term sustainability. ✓ Reviews historical financial performance, economic and demographic trends, and benchmarks against peer communities ✓ Identifies strengths, highlights potential risks and informs the Budget Analysis of multi-year projection model with insights on long-term trends Data " Policies & Analysis Practices • Multi-Year Baseline Model ✓ Baseline Model shows where revenues, expenditures and reserves are headed under existing policies ("status quo') © PFM 5 Five-Year Baseline Forecast • The financial forecast provides a baseline projection that reflects the City of Roanoke's current fiscal condition, absent significant policy changes • The baseline forecast is intended to show what the City's financial results could be with no corrective action. City leadership and elected officials can make informed decisions on actions to change the City's anticipated trajectory if the baseline projection identifies a structural budget gap • The forecast begins with an assessment of General Fund performance from FY2015 through FY2024 to establish a baseline awareness of the City's long-term revenue and expenditure trends • Adopted FY2025 and FY2026 Budgets are incorporated into the baseline, as based on the City's most recent policy and spending decisions, and set the starting point for future fiscal years • Existing financial policies, including fund balance targets and pay-as-you-go capital practices, are carried forward into the forecast • Growth in outstanding obligations such as debt service and actuarially required pension contributions are also included • Growth rates are applied to major revenue and expenditure categories, based on historical trends and policy direction as defined by City budgets, annual comprehensive financial reports (ACFR), and actuarial valuation reports (AVR) © PFU" 6 • • Financial Condition Assessment and Key Trends Historical Financial Trends • From FY2015 to FY2024, the City has generally managed to maintain fiscal balance, generating operating surpluses each year as revenue growth tracked closely with expenditure growth • Like many other local governments, the City reduced spending in FY2021 during the COVID-19 pandemic, significantly contributing to its fund balance growth during the past decade • Fund balance growth has been partially offset by recurring transfers to the Capital Projects Fund to support infrastructure needs; this volatile expense is shown separately to provide a clearer view of the City's underlying operating budget trends General Fund Revenues and Expenditures (in millions) FY2015 FY2016 FY2017 FY2018 FY2019 FY2020 FY2021 FY2022 FY2023 FY2024 FY15- FY24 Actual Actual Actual Actual Actual Actual Actual Actual Actual Actual CAGR Revenues $265.5 $273.1 $279.3 $290.9 $300.2 $302.9 $310.0 $326.2 $348.4 $376.3 3.9% Expenditures $261.4 $269.9 $274.9 $279.9 $288.7 $290.0 $286.0 $314.8 $332.1 $363.1 3.7% Operating Surplus/(Deficit) $4.1 $3.1 $4.4 $11.1 $11.5 $13.0 $24.0 $11.4 $16.3 $13.2 13.7% Transfer to Capital Projects Fund ($3.0) ($1.5) ($2.6) ($7.5) ($6.8) ($10.7) ($8.5) ($15.4) ($4.6) ($10.8) 15.2% Unassigned Fund Balance $28.1 $28.8 $29.8 $34.9 $39.5 $43.0 $47.4 $41.6 $42.5 $50.4 6.7% *Compound annual growth rate (CAGR) Source: City of Roanoke, 2015 - 2024 Annual Comprehensive Financial Reports Note: The Budget Stabilization Fund was included in the City's unassigned fund balance totals for FY2019 -FY2021. © PF( 8 Fund Balance Reserves • The City's reserve framework includes an unassigned General Fund balance (policy target of at least 12% of expenditures) and a Budget Stabilization Fund (policy target of at least 3%; part of assigned fund balance) • The Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA) recommends maintaining a fund balance equal to at least 16.7% of expenditures • The City's unassigned fund balance as a percentage of expenditures has remained above its own policy target, but below the GFOA threshold • As of the FY2024 ACFR, the Budget Stabilization Fund balance totaled $13.2 million, which supplements the City's unrestricted reserves and provides additional cushion General Fund Unassigned Fund Balance as a % of Expenditures 18% - - —4 64%- 16 ° 13.4% 14.3% 13.5% 13.5% 14/° 12 1% 12.6% FB as % of Expen. 0 12 ° 10.6% 10.6% 10.7% 10% r- GFOA FB Threshold 8% 6 (16.7%) % City FB Threshold 4% 2% 0% FY2015 FY2016 FY2017 FY2018 FY2019 FY2U2U FY2U21 FY2022 FY2023 FY2024 Actual Actual Actual Actual Actual Actual Actual Actual Actual Actual Source: City of Roanoke, 2015-2024 Annual Comprehensive Financial Reports © PFM Note: The Budget Stabilization Fund was included in unassigned fund balance totals for FY2019 -FY2021. 9 FY2026 General Fund Revenues FY2026 General Fund Revenue • Like most local governments, tax revenue is the City's $407.7 Million largest revenue driver, comprising nearly three- Charges for Other Revenues quarters of Roanoke's total General Fund revenues Services 2% 5% • The majority of the City's tax revenue is generated by the real estate tax, accounting for 36% ($148 million) of the City's budget • Personal property tax represents 8% ($33.4 million) of the City's budget Intergovernmental Real Estate Tax 23% 36% • Other tax revenues account for 26% of the FY2026 budget ($104 million) • The next largest budgeted revenue driver is revenue from intergovernmental sources (23% or $95 Other Taxes million), which includes grants and other funding from 7% the Commonwealth of Virginia Business & Occup.

While step pay plans and annual wage increases support employee satisfaction and retention, they also create ongoing obligations that are unlikely to decrease • The City's Risk Management Fund faces continuing fiscal obligations. Because the City is self-insured, health insurance, workers' compensation, and liability claims are paid from this fund. Its cash balance has declined from $21 .1 M in FY2016 to $10.0M in FY2024, and the fund continues to carry a negative fund balance.

In the long term, it also needs to build up its fund reserve • Pension contributions will continue to increase due to wage adjustments and amortization payments related to its unfunded liability • The current debt schedule indicates that debt service spending will continue to increase each year • Uncertainty around future funding needs for Roanoke City Public Schools • If the US enters a recession, the City's fiscal risks will further heighten • Looking ahead, the next several years will be difficult for many localities given the current economy. Roanoke must reassess its strategic priorities and funding approaches to preserve long-term fiscal stability © PFM 31 FY2027 to FY2031 Baseline Forecast Summary • The City is projected to incur a deficit in each year of the forecast, growing from $6.7 million in FY2027 to $14.0 million in FY2031 , driven by: • Slowing property tax revenue growth as already seen among Virginia localities and preliminary FY2025 results • Rising cash compensation costs from wage adjustments and overtime spending, absent headcount adjustments • Continued growth in pension obligations following recent wage adjustments • The need to increase health benefits funding and stabilize the Risk Management Reserve • The baseline assumes the City's transfer to Roanoke City Public Schools continues at 40% of budgeted eligible local tax revenue; however, this does not reflect the City's FY2026 policy and may not fully meet RCPS needs General Fund 5-Year Baseline Forecast $500 $484.9 o FY2027-FY2031 Compound $480 Annual Growth Rate $469.4 $460 Revenues 2.9% $455.6 $470.9 Expenditures 3.5% $440.1 $440 $427.0 $456.4 $442.5 $420 $407.7 $429.1 $400 $420.2 $380 $373.8 $379.1 $407.7 $360 $376.3 $379.1 FY2024 FY2025 FY2026 FY2027 FY2028 FY2029 FY2030 FY2031 Actuals Adopted Adopted Projected Projected Projected Projected Projected © PI —e—Total Revenue —s—Total Expenditures ( 32 ) ► Key Forecast Takeaway: Fund Balance Decline and Structural Imbalance • Under the assumptions in the baseline forecast, the City is projected to fall below its fund balance policy target (12% of expenditures) as early as FY2027, with reserves fully depleted before the end of the projection period. This level is also below the GFOA's recommended fund balance threshold • While the forecast reflects one scenario based on current assumptions that may evolve over time, the overarching takeaway is that the City's General Fund is structurally imbalanced, with recurring expenditures outpacing revenues beginning in FY2027 General Fund Baseline Forecast Unassigned Fund Balance as a % of
