WHEREAS, this local governing body of the Commonwealth of Virginia is
advised that there has been approved by Ge House of Representatives and is now be-
fore the United States Senate Finam e Committee for heari~s certain proposed legis-
lation, contained in H.R. 16241, which would purport to repeal the exemption of
states and local governments from the Federal tax on air travel, which exemption ha

approved by HUD, t.here will be elimination (as approved by HUD) by demoli-
tion, condemnation, effective closing, or compulsory repair or improvement,
of unsafe or insanitary dwelling units situated in the'locality or metropolitan
area of the Local Government substantially equal in number to the number of
newly constructed dwelling units provided by such Project; Provided, that,
where more than one family is living in an unsafe or insanitary dwelling unit,
the elimination of such unit shall count as the elimination of units equal~
to the number of families accommodated therein; and Provided, further, that
this paragraph 4 shall not apply in the case of (i) any Project developed on
the site of a Slum cleared subsequent to July 15, 1949 and that the dwelling
units eliminated by the clearance of the site of such Project shall not be
counted as eliminati, on for any other Project or any other low-rent housing
Project, or (ii) any Project located in a rural non-farm area.
During the period commencing with the date of the acquisition of any part of
the site or sites of any Project and continuing so long as either (i) such
Project is owned by a public body or governmental agency and is used for
low-rent housing purposes, or (ii) any contract between the Local Authority
and HUD for loans or annual contributions, or both, in connection with such
Project remains in force and effect, or (iii) any bonds issued in connection

Local Government cause to be removed from such vacated areas, insofar
as it may be necessary, ail public or private utility lines and
equipment;
(c)
Insofar as the Local Government may lawfully do so, (i) grant such

Local Authority:
(a)
It will accept the dedication of all interior streets, roads, alleys,
and adjacent sidewalks within the area of such Project, together with

owned).
If by reason of the Local Government's failure or refusal to furnish or
cause to be furnished any public services or facilities which it has
agreed hereunder to furnish or cause to be furnished to the Local Authority
or to the tenants of any Project, the Local Authority incurs any expense to
obtain such services or facilities, then the Local Authority may deduct the
amount of such expense from any Payments in Lieu of Taxes Uue or to become
due to the Local Government in respect to any Project or any other low-rent
housing Projects owned,or operated by the Local Authority.

and the Local Authority shall be construed to apply to any Project covered
by this Agreement.

with such Project remain unpaid, this Agreement shall not be abrogated, changed
or modified without the consent of HUD. The privileges and obligations of
the Local Government hereunder shall remain in full force and effect with
respect to each Project so long as the beneficial title to such Project is
~eld by the Local Authority or any other public body or governmental agency,
including HUD, authorized by law to engage in the development or administra-
tion of low-rent Housing Projects. If at any time the beneficial title to,
or possession of, any Project is held by such other public body or govern-
mental agency, including HUD, the provisions hereof shall inure to the
benefit of and may be enforced by, such other public body or governmental
a~ency including HUD.

PROCEDURE FOR SUBMISSION OF PLANS
AND RECORDATION OF PLATS
Pre-Preliminary Conference
Prior to the filing of a preliminary plat, the subdivider
shall consult with the agent of the Planning Commission concerning
the subdivision plans of the subdivider. It is the intent of this
requirement that the subdivider may familiarize himself with these
regulations and that the agent of the Planning Commission and such
personnel of the City as may be appropriate and concerned shall be
afforded by the subdividez opportunity to advise and assist the
subdivider prior to the preparation of the preliminary plat and
related material.
Preliminary Plan
a)
Whenever a subdivision is proposed to be made and before
any sale of any lot or lots located in said subdivision as
a whole or any part thereof is made, the owner or proprietor
of the proposed subdivision, or his duly authorized represen-
tative, shall file a plan of the proposed subdivision with
the Agent for approval. The plan and all procedure relating
thereto should be in substantial accord with the pre-prelimi-
nary plan and in ail respects shall be in full compliance with
the provisions of these regulations and all applicable laws
and ordinances affecting or regulating the subdivision of
land, the use thereof, and the erection of buildings or struc-
tures thereon. The preliminary plan shall be comprised of the
preliminary plat and, in addition, all other information re-
quired by the Agent and/or City Engineer to properly evaluate
and inspect the proposed subdivision.
b)
The Agent and the City Engineer shall tentatively approve or
disapprove the preliminary subdivision plat or approve it with
modifications, noting thereon any changes that will be required.
Not less than three (3) copies of the preliminary plat shall
be submitted to the Agent and one (1) copy shall be returned
to the owner or proprietor of the subdivision or his represen-
tative with the date of said approval or disapproval noted
thereon.
c)
The Agent, in studying the preliminary subdivision plat,
shall take into consideration the requirements of the community
and the best use of the land being subdivided. Particular
attention shall be given to width, arrangement and location of
streets, utility easements, drainage, lot sizes and arrange-
ments, and other facilities such as parks, playgrounds or school
sites, public buildings, parking areas, boulevards and main
highways. Adequate street connections shall be required by
the Agent to ensure free and safe access to adjoining existing,
proposed, and possible subdivision of lands.
d)
The preliminary plat shall be approved, disapproved, or
approved with modification within forty-five (45) days after
the date it is presented to the Agent.
Final Plan
a)
The final plan may include only a portion of the approved
preliminary plan provided that the public improvements to be
constructed in the area covered by the plat are sufficient,
by and of themselves, to accomplish a proper development and
to provide adequately for the health, safety and convenience
of the present and future residents therein and for adequate
access to contiguous areas, schools and other public sites.
b)
The Agent, before approving any final subdivision plat,
shall personally inspect the proposed subdivision on the
ground, together with the City Engineer, who shall also
approve the plat. Upon approving such final subdivision
plat, the Agent and City Engineer shall clearly endorse their
approval thereon.
c)
Unless a final plat is filed with the Agent within six
(6) months after the approval of the preliminary plat, the
preliminary plat shall thereupon become void and shall be
so marked by the Agent, who shall notify the subdivider in
writing.
'310
d)
The final subdivision plat shall be approved by the Agent
and the City Engineer, if found to be in conformity with the
requirements of law and of these regulations, within a reason-
able period of time following submission of such plat. Such
plat shall be filed for recordation in the clerk's office of
the court in which deeds conveying the land are recorded sixty
(60) days after final approval thereof. Otherwise, such approval
shall be withdrawn by the Agent and the plat marked void and
returned to the owner. No clerk of a court shall file or record
a plat of a subdivision until such plat has been approved by
the Agent and the City Engineer.
e)
When a final subdivision plat has been approved, executed,
and acknowledged as provided in these regulations, it shall
be recorded in the office of the clerk of the court in whose
office deeds conveying the land contained in the plat are re-
quired by law to be recorded and shall be indexed under the names
of the owners of the land and under ~he name of the subdivision.
The clerk shall retain the original linen tracing of said plat
and shall permit it to be inspected only upon written order of
a'judge of a court of record,
f)
The recordation of plats of subdivision of land shall operate
to transfer, in fee simple, to the City or County in which the
land lies such portion of the premises platted as is on such plat
set apart for streets, alleys or other public uses or for future
street widening and to transfer to such City or County any ease-
ment indicated on such plat to create a public right of passage
over the same; but nothing herein contained shall prevent the
persons who set apart such land for streets and alleys, or for
future street widening, or their heirs, successors and assigns,
where otherwise under this chapter they have the right so to do,
from erecting, installing, constructing, and maintaining electric
lines or conduits, along or under the portions so set apart, gas
lines, water lines, sanitary sewer pipes, drains and drain pipes,
electric lines or conduits, when such are constructed, erected,
placed, installed and maintained pursuant to the provisions of
this chapter and ali other applicable laws and regulations.

or part thereof, the clerk of court in whose office such plat has
been recorded, whether the same was recorded under the provisions
of this chapter or otherwise, shall write in plain, legible letters
across such plat, or the part thereof so vacated, the word
"VACATED," and also make a reference on the same to the volume
and page in which the instrument of vacation is recorded; and, if

ARTICLE VIII
DESIGN STANDARDS
Sec. 58. In General
The arrangement of lots, character of the subdivision, and
extent, width, grade and location of all streets shall conform to
the officially adopted master plan or parts, divisions or sections
thereof and shall be considered in their relation to existing and
planned streets, topographical conditions, to public convenience and
safety, and in their appropriate relation to the proposed uses of
adjacent land; provided, however, that the Agent may determine that
the size or shape of the land, topography, proposed land use or other
special conditions make compliance with all provisions of this article
impractical and may make exceptions to provisions contained herein,
provided such exceptions are not in conflict with provisions of other
city ordinances.
Sec. 59. Alleys
Alleys serving primarily residential lots are prohibited in all
new subdivisions. Alleys with a minimum width of twenty (20) feet
may be required at t he rear of ali lots designated for business or
industrial use. Dead-end alleys are prohibited.
Sec. 60. Blocks
Blocks longer than twelve hundred (1200) feet or shorter than
three hundred sixty (360) feet between street intersections may be
cause for disapproval of the preliminary plat. Pedestrian easements
at least ten (10) feet wide dividing blocks longer than 900 feet may
be required to permit adequate pedestrian circulation and access t o
schools, shopping centers and other major community facilities. Such
easements shall be indicated on the final plat.

Sec. 61.
Sec. 62.
Sec. 63.
Lots
The size of lots shall conform to the minimum area and frontage
requirements of the zoning ordinance of the city or county wherein
the proposed subdivision lies, and the setback or building line and
sideyard shall conform to the minimum requirements of said ordinance(s);
provided, however, that no residential lot shall be created with an
area of less than 7000 sq. ft, or with a depth of less than one hundred
(100) feet, or with less than 60 feet frontage, except as hereinafter
provided:
a)
Lots having a depth of more than three (3) times their
width may be cause for disapproval of the preliminary
plan.
b)
Corner lots shall have an additional width of not less than
ten (10) feet more than the minimum lot frontage require-
ment as specified in the zoning ordinance to permit adequate
building setback from side streets.
c)
All lots controlled by these regulations shall front on a
public street or an acceptable private street if approved
as such under the "Planned Unit Development" provisions
contained in Section 29 of the Zoning Ordinance of the
City of Roanoke. Double frontage lots, however, may
be cause for disapproval of the preliminary plan. To
avoid frontage on a heavily traveled artery or other dis-
advantageous use, double frontage lots are acceptable
if a planting screen is provided on an easement at least ten
(10) feet in width, across which there shall be no right of
access. Each irregular-shaped residential lot may be allowed
a reduction of the minimum lot frontage requirements set forth
in the zoning ordinance(s) of the city or county wherein the
land lies, of no more than seventeen percent (17%), subject
to the approval of the Agent; provided, however, that no
irregular-shaped lot shall have less than fifty (50) feet of
frontage or less than an average width of sixty (60) feet.
d)
Where no building or setback line requirements exist, a min-
imum setback of twenty-five (25) feet shall be required in all
cases of streets sixty (60) feet or more in width. Where a
street is less than sixty (60) feet wide, the building or set-
back line shall be a minimum of thirty (30) feet.
e) No lot shall be divided by a city or county boundary line.
f)
At local street intersections, property lines shall be rounded
by an arc having a radius of not less than twenty (20) feet.
At all other street intersections, property lines shall be
designed with a radius of not less than twenty-five (25) feet.
g)
Uninhabitable lots, such as lots or portions of lots subject to
flooding or lots deemed by the Agent and the City Engineer to
be uninhabitable, shall not be platted for residential occu-
pancy, nor for such other uses as may increase danger to health,
life or property or agoravate the flood hazard, but land within
the subdivision shall be set aside for such uses as shall not
be endangered by periodic or occasional inundation or shall
not produce unsatisfactory living conditions. Lots for non-
residential occupancy shall be so labled, and the type of
proposed usage shall be indicated on the preliminary and
final plats.
h)
Each lot shall have usable vehicular access from its own lot
frontage onto a dedicated city street, or an approved private
street as allowed in Planned Unit Developments.
i)
Lot requirements for Planned Unit Developments are specified
under Title XV, Article V, Sec. 29 of the Code of the City of
Roanoke, 1956, as amended.
Na me s
No existing subdivision names in the metropolitan area shall be
duplicated.

The design and layout of all streets shall conform to any and all
duly adopted official master plans or portions or elements thereof for
streets, highways and pedestrian ways. In addition:
a)
The street system in the proposed subdivision shall relate to
the existing street system in ~e area adjoining the sub-
division. When a new subdivision adjoins unsubdivided land
susceptible of being subdivided, any new street within the
subdivision determined necessary to serve the unsubdivided
land shall be extended to the subdivision boundaries and
terminated with a temporary turnaround.
b)
Design of streets where railroads, parkways, grade separations,
or freeways are involved shall be subject to the special con-
sideration required by the circumstances in each case.
c)
Street name signs of approved standard design shall be installed
at ali street intersections.
d)
Each street or way which is to be deidcated and which is the
continuation of or approximately the continuation of an exist-
ing dedicated street or way shall be shown on the preliminary
plat and final plat and shall be given the same name as such
existing street or way. The proposed name(s) of other street(s)
or way(s) shown on the preliminary plan shall be submitted to
the Agent for his approval. If such name is not a duplication
of or so nearly the same as to cause confusion with the name
of an existing street or way located in the metropolitan area,
or in close proximity thereto, and if such name is appropriate
for a street name, such name shall be approved by him. When
such street or way forms a portion of any proposed street or
way ordered by the Agent to be surveyed, opened, widened or
improved, and in such order a name therefor is assigned or
designated, the name of such street or way shown on the final
plat shall be the same as the name contained in such order.
In addition, where practicable, all streets in a subdivision
running in a general direction east and west, shall be de-
signated as avenues and so named. Ail streets running in a
general direction, north and south,.shall be designated as
streets and so named or numbered; and all streets having a
winding course shall be known as roads or boulevards, except
where such deisgnations are contrary to the general pattern
of streets in the area,
e)
Where practicable, when a building or structure is erected on
any land covered by these regulations, the number assigned
shall conform to the existing house numbering system.
f)
Whenever a proposed subdivision abuts a road which is included
in the state system of primary highways, an access road ex-
tending the full length of the subdivision along such highway
and providing limited access thereto may be required at a
distance suitable for the appropriate use of the land between
such access road and highway.
g)
Cul-de-sac or permanent dead-end streets shall be terminated
by a turn-around, separated by the depth of one (1) lot from
the exterior boundary or topographical boundary of the sub-
division. Cul-de-sac streets shall not exceed six hundred
(600) feet in length and shall terminate in a circular right-
of-way with a minimum diameter of one hundred (100) feet.
Non-circular turn-around designs may be used if acceptable to
the Agent, City Engineer and Fire Chief.
h)
i)
Half-width streets shall not be permitted.
A street grade exceeding the following requirements will be
approved only when conclusive evidence shows that a lesser
grade is impractical:
(1) Arterial and collector streets - seven (7) percent grade.
(2) Local streets - ten (10) percent grade.
(3) Ail street grades shall be no less than five-tenths (5/10)
percent.
(4) Grades approaching intersections shall not exceed five

(250) feet and in rolling and hilly terrain (i.e., a
cross slope of over 8%) a center line radius of not
less than one hundred fifty (150) feet. The minimum
sight distance for vertical curves on local streets shall
be one hundred fifty (150) feet,
Curved collector and arterial streets in comparatively
level locations (i,e~, a cross slope range of 0% to 8%)
shall have a center line radius of not less than three
hundred fifty (350) feet and in rolling and hilly terrain
(i.e., a cross slope range over 8%) a center line radius
of not less than two hundred (200) feet. The minimum
sight distance for vertical curves on collector streets
shall be two hundred (200) feet.
Between reverse curves, there shall be a tangent having a
length of not less than the following:
Arterial streets - two hundred (200) feet.
Local and collector streets - one hundred (100) feet.
As far as practicable all proposed streets shall be continuous
and made to connect with existing streets without off-set. In
all cases of off-sets, center line jogs of less than one hundred
twenty-five (125) feet shall not be permitted.
All street intersections and junctions shall be at approximately
right angles but not less than 60° unless otherwise approved,
for good cause shown, by the City Engineer and Agent. In

be a sight distance of at least one hundred twenty-five (125)
feet in all street directions.
Sec. 66. Utilities
a)
Overhead utility lines shall be located at the rear of all lots
except where topographical or other conditions make this impracti-
cable, in which event overhead utility lines shall be located on
either side of side lot lines or at such other locations as may
be approved by the utility companies involved. Underground wiring
is strongly encouraged for ali subdivisions.
b)
The facilities for underground utilities such as sewer and
water, including sewer and water laterals to each lot line when

All streets which are designated as part of the major arterial
highway system on an official adopted master plan or part, division
or section thereof, as amended, shall be coordinated with adjoining
links in said system and dedicated at the same or greater widths.
The subdivider shall not be required to expend on improvement of
any right-of-way provided for an arterial highway or street an
amount exceeding the cost of constructing a collector street at
the standards set forth for collector streets in this chapter.
Drainage Easements
All drainage easements offered for dedication to public use
shall have a minimum width of ten (10) feet, except under unusual
circumstances, where a greater or lesser width may be required
and/or approved. The City may or may not accept an easement for
drainage maintenance purposes over or along a creek or natural
drainage channel,
Utility Easements
Utility easements for electric and telephone service lines,
sewage lines, water lines, or other such utilities located along
rear lot lines or side lot lines or passing through a lot shall
be at least fifteen (15) feet wide, seven and one-half (7~) feet
on each lot, and more if necessary, as determined by the Agent
and City Engineer.
Open Space
a)
Subdividers are urged to take advantage of the many new concept
of subdivision design to provide the much needed open space in
residential areas. Reservation of open space, as provided for
below, and provisions for planned unit developments in the Zoning
Ordinance of the City of Roanoke, Virginia, are designed to pro-
vide this open space in new residential subdivisions.
b)
To insure the proper and adequate development of parks and
playgrounds and to protect the public health, safety and welfare,
the Agent, with the approval of the City Council expressed by
ordinance or resolution, may require subdividers of residential
subdivisions to reserve from subdivision and so indicate by plat,
land for public parks, playgrounds, schools, libraries, municipal
buildings, and similar public and semi-public uses, within the
City; provided, however, that subdividers may not be required to
reserve more than twenty (20) percent of the total amount of acreag
of the subdivision for such public purposes. Subdividers shall be
reimbursed by the City for the value of all land so required to
be shown reserved for such public purposes, provided that the City
shall, within fourteen (I4) months following the recordation of
the map of subdivision, elect to purchase and acquire the land so
reserved by the subdivider.
The amount of reimbursement to the subdivider by the City, if
all such land shall have been purchased and acquired by the
subdivider within eighteen (18) months prior to the recorda~on
of the map of subdivision, shall be an amount which bears the same
relationship to the subdivider's total purchase price of the land
to be subdivided as does the area required to be reserved bear to
the whole area of land which is proposed to be subdivided. In
the event that any portion of the land to be subdivided was acquired
more than eighteen (lB) months prior to the submission of a
preliminary plat, reimbursement shall be based on agreed appraised
land values at the time of submission of the preliminary plat.
To facilitate such possible eventual sale of reserved land
as separate lots, the subdivider shall show on his final plat,
by dotted lines, the area and dimensions of lots to be created
within the boundaries of any such reserved land, and may sell
such lots, after the expiration date of the reservation, by lot
number, without filing an amended plat. The Agent shall make
certain that lands so reserved are divisible in the same manner
as the remainder of the subdivision so that the subdivider will
not be required to reserve an unusable portion of his subdivision.

its proceedings showing the vote of each member or if absent
or failing to vote, indicating such fact, and keep records of
all its official actions, and which records shall be a public

A RESOLUTION proposing unification of the Town of Vinton and the City of
WHEREAS, the Town of Vinton and the City of Roanoke, whose corporate limits

all such area, and would in all respects inure to the benefit of the residents of
such area and to the Commonwealth; and

this Council considers that mutual benefit would necessarily result to the residents

sidered study be given the proposal, the Honorable Mayor and Members of the Vinton
Town Council be and are hereby respectfully invited to consider this Council's
