APPROVED BY: Richard L. Caywood
County Administrator
ISSUE:
Request to accept and allocate funds in the amount of $22,500 from George Mason
University, Center for Evidence -Based Crime and Policy.
BACKGROUND:
The Roanoke County Police Department (RCPD) has collaborated with the Center for
Evidence -Based Crime Policy (CEBCP) at George Mason University (GMU) regarding
the two-year federal grant proposal "Coalition to Enhance the Capacity of Policing
Mental Health Problems in Virginia" to support Roanoke County's Officer Safety and

health checks for officers. Research evaluating the efficacy of mental health checks is
limited. GMU CEBCP will assist the Department with developing a pre and post
evaluation tool to assess the value of this service
Page 1 of 2

There are no matching funds required.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends accepting and allocating funds in the amount of $22,500 from

ITEM NO. H-4
AT A REGULAR MEETING OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF ROANOKE
COUNTY, VIRGINIA HELD AT THE ROANOKE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION CENTER
MEETING DATE: February 28, 2023
AGENDA ITEM: Ordinance authorizing the release and vacation of existing
waterline, temporary construction and drainage easements
located on 0.933 acre +/- on property of Margaret O.
Klapperich, Instrument Number 201507683, Tax Map
#027.06-05-06.00-0000, Hollins Magisterial District
SUBMITTED BY:
APPROVED BY:
ISSUE:
Megan G. Cronise
Assistant Director of Planning
Richard L. Caywood
County Administrator
The Board of Supervisors must adopt an ordinance to authorize the release and
vacation of a waterline easement, temporary construction easement and drainage
easement along Plantation Road located at 7515 Friendship Lane in the Hollins
Magisterial District.
BACKGROUND:
The Plantation Road Bicycle, Pedestrian and Streetscape Improvement Project was
initiated in 2009 to implement the 2008 Hollins Area Plan. The original project scope
included both sides of Plantation Road, extended from Williamson Road to Interstate
81, and proposed connecting Walrond Park with the Tinker Creek Greenway envisioned
along Carvin Creek. Three (3) phases of the project have been funded and constructed
through several transportation programs since 2009.
In order to construct Phase 1 and Phase 2 of the project between Williamson Road and
Gander Way/Friendship Lane, various easements were donated to Roanoke County in
2015. At the time, the property located at 7515 Friendship Lane on the corner of
Plantation Road was owned by Guy and Mary Plymale. Mr. and Mrs. Plymale donated
right-of-way, a waterline easement, a drainage easement and a temporary construction
easement to the Board of Supervisors with a deed and plat recorded on July 16, 2015.
Page 1 of 3
The easements were anticipated to be needed for sidewalk construction and related
impacts along the eastern side of Plantation Road. As project costs grew, the project
scope was reduced to remove the planned segment of sidewalk on the eastern side of
Plantation Road between Lila Drive and Friendship Lane. Phase 2 of the project,
completed in 2022, included construction of a crosswalk with pedestrian signals at the
Friendship Lane/Plantation Road corner in the public right-of-way adjacent to the
subject property.
Mr. Plymale passed away in 2016 and Mrs. Plymale passed away in 2018. The
property conveyed to Margaret O. Klapperich in 2018.
DISCUSSION:
InSite Real Estate Investment Properties, LLC. (InSite) entered into a Purchase and
Sale Contract with Margaret O. Klapperich for the property located at 7515 Friendship
Lane in May 2022. InSite requested that the property be rezoned from R-2, Medium
Density Residential District, to C-2, High Intensity Commercial District, to construct a
drive-in or fast food restaurant (Quick -Serve Coffee Shop) in June 2022. The Board of
Supervisors approved the rezoning request with proffered conditions in August 2022.
InSite included sidewalk along the property's Plantation Road and Friendship Lane
frontage in the proffered concept plan. Sidewalk is also included on the site plan for the
project which was conditionally approved on February 20, 2023. InSite has coordinated
an Easement Vacation Request Application with Ms. Klapperich in order to vacate any
easements not needed prior to the anticipated late March 2023 closing on the property.
The application requests that the Board of Supervisors vacate the waterline easement,
drainage easement and temporary construction easement obtained from Mr. and Mrs.
Plymale in 2015.
Staff research and discussions with the Western Virginia Water Authority, the Virginia
Department of Transportation, and County Engineering and Stormwater staff concluded
that none of the easements are currently being utilized and, if InSite constructs sidewalk
as planned, the easements will not be needed in the future.
A Deed of Release has been signed by Ms. Klapperich to further facilitate the release of
the easements.
FISCAL IMPACT:
None.

STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the Board of Supervisors schedule the second reading for March
