(the "Applicant") submits this rezoning application for the 0.978-acre parcel of real property commonly identified as Roanoke County tax parcel ID 077.20- 01-40.00-0000 (the "Subject Parcel"). The purpose of this rezoning application is to remove certain existing proffered conditions governing the development and use of the Subject Parcel, in connection with Sheetz's plan to redevelop the Subject Property and the adjacent parcel, commonly known as 4145 Franklin Road SW, Roanoke, VA 24018, and Roanoke County tax parcel ID 077.20-01-40.01-0000 (the "Adjacent Parcel") and operate a Sheetz Fuel Center and Convenience Store on the Subject Parcel and the Adjacent Parcel. The Subject Parcel is zoned C-2-C (High Intensity Commercial district with conditions) and the Adjacent Parcel is zoned C-2 (High Intensity Commercial district without conditions). Fuel Center and Convenience Store are uses permitted by-right in the C-2 (High Intensity Commercial) zoning district in Roanoke County. The Subject Parcel and the Adjacent Parcel (collectively, the "Sheetz Site") both are owned by 4143 Franklin Road Associates, LLC. The parcels comprising the Sheetz Site are designated as Core on the Roanoke County Future Land Use Map. In 1989, to facilitate the redevelopment and use of the Subject Parcel as a Central Fidelity Bank branch, the Roanoke County Board of Supervisors approved certain amended proffered conditions governing the use of the Subject Parcel. The amended proffered conditions approved by the Board of Supervisors in 1989, which continue to govern development and use of the Subject Parcel, include certain conditions that are inconsistent with Sheetz's plan to redevelop the parcels 901 East Byrd Street, Suite 950 I Richmond, VA 23219 I 804.905.6900 I mslaw.com BALTIMORE, MD EASTON, MD • FREDERICK.

February 9, 2024 Page 2 MILES & £ STOCKBRIDGE comprising the Sheetz Site and use such parcels for operation of a Fuel Center and Convenience Store. Such conflicting conditions include: (1) development of the Subject Parcel in substantial conformity with a concept plan dated March 15, 1989; (2) limitations on lighting; (3) limitations on the size and height of free-standing signs; and (4) restrictions regarding the entrance to the Subject Parcel from U.S. Route 220. In consultation with the Roanoke County Planning Department and Zoning Division staff, Sheetz determined that it is necessary to remove the existing proffered conditions governing the Subject Parcel to allow for the redevelopment of the Subject Parcel and the Adjacent Parcel and the operation of a Sheetz Fuel Center and Convenience Store on the Sheetz Site. Following the approval of this rezoning application by the Roanoke County Board of Supervisors, the Subject Parcel and the Adjacent Parcel both would be zoned C-2 (High Intensity Commercial district) without conditions. Thus, as C-2 (High Intensity Commercial district without conditions) zoned parcels, after the conditions governing the Subject Parcel are removed upon the approval of this application, then Sheetz' s proposed use of the Sheetz Site as Fuel Center and Convenience Store would be permitted. The Applicant submits the following exhibits in support of this rezoning application: Exhibit 1 - Justification Statement Exhibit 2 - Existing Proffered Conditions Exhibit 3 - Concept Plan for the Proposed Redevelopment of the Sheetz Site Exhibit 4 - Elevations Showing Design of Sheetz Fuel Center and Convenience Store Exhibit 5— Landscape Plan Exhibit 6— Lighting Plan Exhibit 7 - Metes and Bounds Description of Subject Parcel Exhibit 8 -List of Adjacent Property Owners Exhibit 9 - Traffic Impact Analysis ("TIA") Exhibit 10 - Concurrence Letter from VDOT Regarding TIA The proposed development and operation of a Sheetz Fuel Center and Convenience Store on the Subject Parcel and the Adjacent Parcel will conform to the C-2 (High Intensity Commercial) district development conditions and design standards. The Applicant does not request any exceptions to such district standards. The Applicant is a family-owned convenience store chain based in Altoona, Pennsylvania. For more than 70 years, Sheetz has been meeting the needs of customers on the go and serving the communities in which it operates. Sheetz is excited to establish and operate a Fuel Center and Convenience Store at the corner of Franklin Road and Valley Avenue and looks forward to continuing to serve the Roanoke community. 119345\000002\4888-6103-6196.v2 Sheetz, Inc.

The Planning Commission will study rezoning, special use permit waiver or community plan (15.2-2232) review requests to determine the need and justification for the change in terms of public health, safety, and general welfare. Please answer the following questions as thoroughly as possible. Use additional space if necessary. Please explain how the request furthers the purposes of the Roanoke County Ordinance as well as the purpose found at the beginning of the applicable zoning district classification in the Zoning Ordinance. Please explain how the project conforms to the general guidelines and policies contained in the Roanoke County Community Plan. Please describe the impact(s) of the request on the property itself, the adjoining properties, and the surrounding area, as well as the impacts on public services and facilities, including water/sewer, roads, schools, parks/recreation and fire and rescue. 3 See Section VI of attached justification for rezoning narrative. See Section VI of attached justification for rezoning narrative. See Section VII of attached justification for rezoning narrative. CONCEPT PLAN CHECKLIST A concept plan of the proposed project must be submitted with the application. The concept plan shall graphically depict the land use change, development or variance that is to be considered. Further, the plan shall address any potential land use or design issues arising from the request. In such cases involving rezonings, the applicant may proffer conditions to limit the future use and development of the property and by so doing, correct any deficiencies that may not be manageable by County permitting regulations. The concept plan should not be confused with the site plan or plot plan that is required prior to the issuance of a building permit. Site plan and building permit procedures ensure compliance with State and County development regulations and may require changes to the initial concept plan. Unless limiting conditions are proffered and accepted in a rezoning or imposed on a special use permit or variance, the concept plan may be altered to the extent permitted by the zoning district and other regulations. A concept plan is required with all rezoning, special use permit, waiver, community plan (15.2-2232) review and variance applications. The plan should be prepared by a professional site planner. The level of detail may vary, depending on the nature of the request.

SUMMARY OF PROPOSAL The subject parcel, comprised of approximately 0.978 acres, is located at 4143 Franklin Road SW, Roanoke, Virginia 24018 (the "Subject Parcel"). The Subject Parcel is commonly known as Tax Parcel ID 077.20-01-40.00-0000 and is more particularly described in the metes and bounds description attached hereto as Exhibit 7. The purpose of this rezoning application is to remove certain existing proffered conditions governing the development and use of the Subject Parcel, in connection with Sheetz's plan to redevelop the Subject Property and the adjacent parcel, commonly known as 4145 Franklin Road SW, Roanoke, VA 24018, and Roanoke County tax parcel ID 077.20-01-40.01-0000 (the "Adjacent Parcel") and operate a Sheetz Fuel Center and Convenience Store on the Subject Parcel and the Adjacent Parcel. The Subject Parcel is zoned C-2-C (High Intensity Commercial district with conditions) and the Adjacent Parcel is zoned C-2 (High Intensity Commercial district without conditions). Fuel Center and Convenience Store are uses permitted by-right in the C-2 (High Intensity Commercial) zoning district in Roanoke County. The Subject Parcel and the Adjacent Parcel (collectively, the "Sheetz Site") both are owned by 4143 Franklin Road Associates, LLC. The parcels comprising the Sheetz Site are designated as Core on the Roanoke County Future Land Use Map. II. PROPERTY AND SURROUNDING AREA The Property is located on the west side of Franklin Road (U.S. Route 220), immediately north of its intersection with Valley Avenue. Existing development on the Subject Parcel consists of a vacant 3096.5 square foot bank style building, as well as a drive-thru banking canopy and surface parking area. The Subject is located within a cluster of commercial buildings that line both sides of Franklin Road. To the north of the Subject Parcel Property, there are office buildings housing an optician business and a title insurance agency. To the east, across Franklin Road from the Subject Parcel, is a restaurant building housing a Starbucks coffee shop. To the west of the Subject Parcel 1 19345\000002\4871-1247-5556.v2 is a self-storage facility. To the south of the Subject Parcel is a retail building that houses a Fleet Feet running shoe and apparel store. III. PROJECT DESCRIPTION Sheetz proposes to demolish the existing buildings located on the Subject Parcel and the Adjacent Parcel and develop a new Sheetz Ful Center and Convenience Store (the "Project") on the combined parcels. The Project would include a 6,139 square foot Convenience Store building, a drive-thru lane for Sheetz Made-to-Order food service, a fuel island and canopy, a dumpster enclosure, a stand-alone pole sign, surface parking areas containing 38 parking spaces, and entrance off of U.S. Route 220 and an entrance/exit onto Valley Avenue. A concept plan showing the proposed layout of the Project, and the proposed locations of the Convenience Store building, the drive-thru lane, the fuel island and canopy area, the dumpster enclosure area, the pole sign, the parking areas and the entrances to the Sheetz Site is attached hereto as Exhibit 3. Elevations showing the proposed design of the Sheetz Fuel Center and Convenience Store, including the Convenience Store building, the fuel center island and canopy, the dumpster enclosure, and the pole sign are attached hereto as Exhibit 4. And landscaping and lighting plans for the Project are attached hereto as Exhibits 5 and 6 respectively. The Project will conform to the C-2 (High Intensity Commercial) district development conditions and design standards set forth in Section 30-54-3 of the Roanoke County Zoning Ordinance. The Applicant does not request any exceptions to such district development conditions and design standards. IV. EXISTING PROFFERED CONDITIONS To facilitate the redevelopment and use of the Subject Parcel as a Central Fidelity Bank branch, in 1989, the Roanoke County Board of Supervisors approved a set of amended proffered conditions governing the use of the Subject Parcel. A copy of the existing proffered conditions approved by the Board of Supervisors in 1989 (the "Existing Proffers") is attached hereto as Exhibit 2. The Existing Proffers approved by the Board of Supervisors in 1989, which continue to govern development and use of the Subject Parcel, include certain conditions that are inconsistent with Sheetz's plan to redevelop the parcels comprising the Sheetz Site and use such parcels of 2 119345\000002\4871-1247-5556.v2 property for operation of a Sheetz Fuel Center and Convenience Store. Specifically, the Existing Proffers that conflict with Sheetz's proposed redevelopment and use of the Subject Parcel include: 1) The site will be developed in substantial conformity to the concept plan prepared by Balzer and Associates, Inc. and dated March 15, 1989. The building may be oriented in a slightly different manner to improve visibility and drive-thru access. 2) Site lighting will be directed downward, and will not exceed 20 feet in height. Signs will not be lighted after 10:00 p.m. 3) Free standing signs will be limited to 50 square feet, and will not exceed 20 feet in height. 4) The entrance on U.S. Route 220 will be placed adjacent to the northern property line to facilitate a shared entrance between the proposed bank site and the remaining property to the north. V. REMOVAL OF EXISTING PROFFERED CONDITIONS Sheetz proposes to remove the Existing Proffers as a necessary step in the process of redeveloping the Subject Parcel and the Adjacent Parcel and to facilitate its proposed use of such parcels to operate a Sheetz Fuel Center and Convenience Store. Following the approval of this rezoning application by the Roanoke County Board of Supervisors, the Subject Parcel and the Adjacent Parcel both will be zoned C-2 (High Intensity Commercial district) without conditions. Thus, as C-2 (High Intensity Commercial district without conditions) zoned parcels, after the Existing Proffers applying to the Subject Parcel are removed upon the approval of this application, then Sheetz's proposed use of the Subject Parcel and the Adjacent Parcel as a new Sheetz Fuel Center and VI. THE REQUEST FURTHERS PURPOSES OF THE ZONING ORDINANCE AND THE C-2 (HIGH INTENSITY COMMERCIAL) DISTRICT The Project will further the applicable goals and recommendations of the Roanoke County Zoning Ordinance. The Zoning Ordinance expressly is designed to promote the general welfare of the public by (a) providing for convenience of access, (b) reducing or preventing congestion in the 3 119345\000002\4871-1247-5556.v2 public streets, and (c) encouraging economic development activities that provided desirable employment and enlarge the tax base. See Roanoke County Zoning Ordinance, Section 30-3. The purpose of the C-2 (High Intensity Commercial) zoning district stated in Section 30- 54-1 of the Zoning Ordinance "is to provide locations for a variety of commercial and service- related activities within the urban service area serving a community of several neighborhoods ore large areas of the county." Accordingly, "[h]igh intensity commercial districts are most appropriately found along major arterial thoroughfares which serve large segments of the county's population" like the U.S. Route 220 corridor south of the St. Route 419 interchange, where the Subject Parcle is located. See Roanoke County Zoning Ordinance, Section 30-3. Moreover, "the C-2 district permits a wide variety of retail and service-related uses" including the Fuel Center and Convenience Store uses proposed by Sheetz. Zoning Ordinance, Section 30-54-1. Further, '[1]and uses permitted in this district are generally consistent with the recommendation set forth in the transition and core land use categories of the comprehensive plan." Zoning Ordinance, Section 30-54-1. As noted above, the Subject Parcel is designated as "Core" on the Roanoke County Future Land Use Map. The Roanoke County Comprehensive Plan describes the Core land use category as "[t]hese are commercial, retail areas where suburban centers of high intensity urban development are present or expected." Comprehensive Plan, Chapter 3. The Fuel Center and Convenience Store use proposed by Sheetz is consistent with the designation of the Subject Parcel as Core on the Future Land Use Map and the description of the Core lad use category set forth in the Comprehensive Plan. The proposed redevelopment of the Subject Parcel and the Adjacent Parcel as a Sheetz Fuel Center and Convenience Store furthers the following objectives for the Core land use category established in Chapter 3 of the Comprehensive Plan: 4 119345\000002\4871-1247-5556.v2 A. Encourage Redevelopment of congested Core areas. B. Create pedestrian-oriented Core areas to ease traffic congestion. C. Concentrate intensive commercial uses into one area rather than in long linear corridors. Sheetz proposes to redevelop two unutilized or underutilized parcels in a congested Core area along U.S. Route 220 south of the State Route 419 interchange and concentrate the proposed Fuel Center and Convenience Store uses on such underutilized parcels along a major throughfare serving a significant portion of Roanoke County, in close proximity to other similar and complimentary commercial uses, such as the Starbucks located at 4109 Southern Hills Drive SW, the Chick-fl-A located at 4110 Southern Hills Drive SW, and the Exxon located at 4111 Franklin Road SW, Roanoke VA 24014. To facilitate pedestrian access, Sheetz proposes to install sidewalks along the Franklin Road and Valley Avenue road frontage, as shown on the Landscaping Plan attached hereto as Exhibit 5. To further these objectives for the Core land use category articulated in Chapter 3 of the Comprehensive Plan, Sheetz has designed this Project and will develop the Sheetz Fuel Center and Convenience Store on the Subject Parcel and the Adjacent Parcel in accordance with the guidelines for the Core land use category established in Chapter 3 of the Comprehensive Plan, and the development conditions and design standards governing the C-2 (High Intensity Commercial) zoning district under Section 30-54-3 of the Roanoke County Zoning Ordinance. VII. ADEQUATE PUBLIC FACILITIES Public facilities are adequate to serve the proposed change in use of the Subject Parcel and the Adjacent Parcel. The Project will be served by existing public water and sewer facilities, which are adequate. As demonstrated by the Traffic Impact Analysis report attached hereto as Exhibit 9 and the letter of concurrence issued by the Virginia Department of Transportation attached hereto as Exhibit 10, vehicular and pedestrian systems are also adequate to serve the Project. The Applicant understands that VDOT and Roanoke County plan to implement the Route 220 Signal Improvements project in 2024, in an effort to improve certain signalized intersections along U.S. Route 220—including the Valley Avenue/Southern Hills Drive intersection—using an intersection design known as a Thru-Cut. The improved Valley Avenue/Southern Hills Drive intersection also 5 119345\000002\4871-1247-5556.v2 will include pedestrian signals and crosswalks. The Applicant further understands that the "Thru- Cut" intersection design will restrict movements straight across the Valley Avenue/Southern Hills Drive intersection from side street to side street, while keeping right and left turns from each side street onto U.S. Route 220 at the intersection, with the objective being to increase "green time" for all traffic signal phases. The concept plan attached hereto as Exhibit 3 reflects entrances to the Project from U.S. Route 220 South and Valley Avenue that have been designed with the planned improvements to the Valley Avenue/Southern Hills Drive intersection with U.S. Route 220 in mind. VIII. CONCLUSION Based on the foregoing, Applicant respectfully requests that the Roanoke County Board of Supervisors approve the rezoning application.

Analysis Sheetz at Franklin Road and Valley Avenue 1 1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA) documented in this report evaluates the traffic impacts of the proposed 6,139 square-foot Sheetz gas station and convenience store with 12 fueling positions (the ‘Project’) in Roanoke, Virginia. The proposed development will be located within the northwest quadrant of the intersection of Franklin Road (US Route 220), hereafter referred to as Franklin Road, and Valley Avenue/Southern Hills Drive. Access to the proposed development will be provided via one full-access driveway along the north side of Valley Avenue (south project driveway) and one partial access (right-in only) driveway (north project driveway) along the west side of Franklin Road. A site plan of the proposed development is included in Appendix A. Traffic operations were analyzed at the intersection of Franklin Road and Valley Avenue/Southern Hills Drive during the AM and PM peak hours using Synchro 11 for the Existing (2023), projected No-Build (2025), and projected Build (2025) conditions. Additionally, based on correspondence with VDOT, SimTraffic queues were reported for information purposes only. The intersection of Franklin Road and Valley Avenue/Southern Hills Drive was analyzed as a signalized thru-cut in No-Build and Build conditions based on future intersection improvements confirmed by VDOT. To mitigate the additional traffic volumes generated by the proposed development, signal timing modifications are recommended to improve delay at the proposed signalized thru-cut at Franklin Road and Valley Avenue/Southern Hills Drive. With the implemented signal timing improvements, during the AM and PM peak hours, all movements and approaches at the intersection of Franklin Road and Valley Avenue/Southern Hills Drive operate at LOS D or better except for the eastbound left-turn movement. Note that movement delay is expected to decrease by approximately 9.5 seconds during the AM peak hour and 8.8 seconds during the PM peak hour under Build conditions. Further note that all minor street movement delays are expected to decrease and the overall intersection operates at LOS C or better under build conditions. During the AM and PM peak hours, the southbound stop-controlled approach at the south project driveway located on Valley Avenue is expected to operate at LOS C or better. Therefore, additional traffic generated by the proposed development is not expected to significantly or adversely impact the study intersection. Based on access management spacing standards reviewed, the proposed north project driveway does not meet access management spacing and will require an access management exception (AM-E) form for submittal to VDOT for review. The proposed south project driveway will also require an AM-E form for review. Turn lane warrant analyses were conducted at the proposed project driveways. The right-turn lane warrant analysis at the north project driveway showed that a full-width southbound right-turn lane with taper is warranted. Note that there is currently an existing southbound right-turn lane along Franklin Road which will serve the north project driveway. The turn lane warrant analyses at the south project driveway showed that a full-width westbound right- turn lane with taper is warranted. However, given geometric limitations and practicality, no turn lanes are proposed at the south project driveway. Note that the turn lane warrants conducted are applicable along a 2-lane highway. As Valley Avenue is not a 2-lane highway, the turn lane warrants conducted are not a direct representation of the warrant criteria. The development will however consolidate three existing driveways along Valley Avenue into one entrance/exit (south project driveway) to improve access management conditions. Nonetheless, a design wavier will be provided for the proposed south project driveway. Justification will be provided regarding the constraints and limitations to provide a right-turn taper at the proposed driveway within the design wavier document.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the future impacts of the proposed development traffic on the surrounding roadway network and to identify potential mitigation measures to accommodate the proposed development. 2.2 METHODOLOGY In preparation of this TIA, Kimley-Horn coordinated with VDOT to receive concurrence on the scope and limits of the study. As determined through VDOT coordination, the study area includes the intersection of Franklin Road and Valley Avenue/Southern Hills Drive. Intersection analyses performed using Synchro 11 included an evaluation of Existing (2023), projected No-Build (2025), and projected Build (2025) conditions. Existing conditions represent the roadway network geometry and traffic volumes at the time of this study. No-Build conditions represent the future roadway network prior to the completion of the proposed development. Build conditions represent the future roadway network with the proposed development. Additionally, based on correspondence with VDOT, vehicle queuing analyses were conducted using 95th percentile and maximum queues by lane obtained from SimTraffic measured in feet. Note that SimTraffic models were not calibrated for this study and are included for information purposes only. 2.3 PROJECT AREA The proposed development is located in the northwest quadrant of the intersection of Franklin Road and Valley Avenue/Southern Hills Drive in Roanoke, Virginia. The site location and study intersection are shown in Figure 1. 2.4 DEVELOPMENT INFORMATION The site for the proposed development is currently occupied by a vacant bank and 4,157 square feet of medical office space. Upon full project build-out, the proposed development will contain a 6,139 square- foot convenience store and fast-food restaurant with 12 fueling positions. As presented and agreed to with VDOT, 1,430 square feet of the proposed development is dedicated for fast-food restaurant space and 4,709 square feet of the proposed development is dedicated for convenience store/gas station space. Consistent with the proposed zoning designation and anticipated future land uses, Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE)Trip Generation Manual, 11th Edition land use codes were assigned to each land use for this study. Detailed trip generation calculations are summarized in Section 6.1. Land use code (LUC) 934 (fast-food restaurant with drive-through window) and LUC 945 (convenience store/gas station) were used for this study. © 2023 Sheetz – Franklin Road & Valley Avenue Roanoke County, VA N Legend: Project Area Proposed Driveway Study Intersection Version 3 January 2024 kimley-horn.com Traffic Impact Analysis Sheetz at Franklin Road and Valley Avenue 4 3 TRAFFIC OPERATIONAL ANALYSIS 3.1 METHODOLOGY The traffic operational analysis performed for this study using Synchro 11 was conducted in accordance with VDOT’s Traffic Operations Safety Analysis Manual (TOSAM) for deterministic, intersection capacity analyses. Consistent with prior VDOT coordination, the study team used Synchro 11 using existing signal timings provided by VDOT. The evaluation of traffic operations within the study area was comprised of an intersection capacity level of service (LOS) analysis during the AM and PM peak hours. For the traffic operational analysis, the projected No-Build conditions served as the baseline for evaluating intersection delays and identifying potential mitigation measures under the Build conditions. Intersection capacity defines the traffic volume that can be accommodated by an intersection at a specified delay and corresponding LOS. Capacity is affected by various geometric factors, including roadway type (e.g., divided or undivided), number of lanes, lane widths, and grades. Delay, which is a measure of the level of intersection congestion expressed in seconds per vehicle, and associated LOS, ranges from LOS A (free flowing) to LOS F (a congested, forced flow condition). Delay and the associated LOS thresholds for signalized and unsignalized intersections based on HCM methodologies are present in Table 1. Table 1: Intersection Level of Service (LOS) Analysis Criteria Level of Service (LOS) Average Control Delay per Vehicle (sec/veh)Description of Traffic Conditions Signalized Unsignalized A £ 10 £ 10 No delays at intersections with continuous flow traffic. Uncongested operations; high frequency of long gaps available for all left- and right-turn traffic; no observable queues.B > 10 and £ 20 > 10 and £ 15 C > 20 and £ 35 > 15 and £ 25 Moderate delays at intersections with satisfactory to good traffic flow. Light congestion; infrequent backups on critical approaches. D > 35 and £ 55 > 25 and £ 35 Increased probability of delays on every approach. Heavy congestion on critical approaches, but intersection is functional. No existing long-standing queues. E > 55 and £ 80 > 35 and £ 50 Heavy traffic flow condition. Long delays probable. No available gaps for cross-street traffic or main street turning traffic. Limit of stable flow. F > 80 > 50 Unstable traffic flow. Heavy congestion. Traffic moves in forced flow condition. Average delays greater than one minute highly probable. Total breakdown. 3.2 KEY ASSUMPTIONS The following assumptions were applied to the traffic operational analysis. §Traffic signal timings were optimized for the Franklin Road and Valley Avenue/Southern Hills Drive intersection in the Build condition. §Per TOSAM, peak hour factors were calculated using existing traffic count data and then used for all existing conditions analyses. For all No-Build and Build signalized intersection analyses, the higher of the calculated peak hour factor or 0.92 was used. Version 3 January 2024 kimley-horn.com Traffic Impact Analysis Sheetz at Franklin Road and Valley Avenue 5 §Peak hour factors and heavy vehicles percents at the proposed project driveways were assumed to be similar to the intersection of Franklin Road and Valley Avenue. §The signalized intersection was evaluated using HCM 2000 reporting as the No-Build and Build signal phasing does not permit HCM 6th Edition reporting. §2040 traffic volumes referenced from Synchro files provided by VDOT at the intersections of Franklin Road at Pheasant Ridge Rod and Franklin Road at Old Rocky Mountain Road were balanced with collected traffic counts at Franklin Road and Valley Avenue/Southern Hills Drive. No volume or level of service results are reported at the intersections of Franklin Road at Pheasant Ridge Road and Franklin Road at Old Rocky Mountain Road. The additional intersections were included in the Synchro models for the purposes of capturing vehicle progression between the three intersections along Franklin Road. 4 EXISTING CONDITIONS 4.1 EXISTING ROADWAY CHARACTERISTICS Roadway characteristics including geometry and posted speed limits for roadway facilities adjacent to the proposed development are summarized in Table 2.

The intersection capacity analysis results are included in Appendix C. 4.4 EXISTING CONDITIONS QUEUING ANALYSIS The SimTraffic 95th percentile and maximum queue lengths were calculated for all movements at the intersection of Franklin Road and Valley Avenue/Southern Hills Drive. Queue analysis reports were generated based on the average of 10 microsimulation runs. Note that no SimTraffic model calibration was conducted. Therefore, based on discussions with VDOT, vehicle queue length results are summarized in Table 5 for informational purposes only. The queuing analysis results are included in Appendix D. 5 PROJECTED NO-BUILD CONDITIONS The projected No-Build conditions represent the future roadway network and background traffic growth without the addition of the proposed development. Based on correspondence with VDOT, the South Peak development located within the northwest quadrant of the intersection of Franklin Road and Valley Avenue was identified to be included in the projected No-Build conditions for this study. Additionally, thru- cut intersection improvements at Franklin Road and Valley Avenue are proposed prior to the build out of the proposed development. Therefore, the intersection of Franklin Road and Valley Avenue/Southern Hills Drive was analyzed as a thru-cut in No-Build conditions. 5.1 TRAFFIC GROWTH RATE A traffic growth rate of 0.6% was applied to the turning movement counts as presented and agreed to by VDOT. No-Build AM and PM peak hour traffic volumes are shown in Figure 3. 5.2 NO-BUILD CONDITIONS INTERSECTION CAPACITY ANALYSIS During the AM and PM peak hours, all movements and approaches at the intersection of Franklin Road and Valley Avenue/Southern Hills Drive operate at LOS D or better except for the following movements/approaches: · Eastbound left-turn movement · Eastbound right-turn movement · Eastbound approach · Westbound left-turn movement · Westbound right-turn movement Version 3 January 2024 kimley-horn.com Traffic Impact Analysis Sheetz at Franklin Road and Valley Avenue 8 · Westbound approach The control delay and LOS results are summarized in Table 4.

Build conditions include the analysis of the proposed full-access driveway (south project driveway) along the north side of Valley Avenue and partial access (right-in only) driveway (north project driveway) along the west side of Franklin Road. Consistent with No-Build conditions, the intersection of Franklin Road and Valley Avenue/Southern Hills Drive was modeled as a thru cut. Signal timing optimization was conducted under Build conditions at the study intersection. 6.1 SITE TRIP GENERATION Traffic projections were estimated for the proposed development based on the ITE Trip Generation Manual, 11th Edition.Table 3 summarizes the expected project trip generation during the AM and PM peak hours. The total trips represent the estimated number of vehicles entering and exiting the proposed development to and from the adjacent street network. Note that to provide a conservative analysis, no trip generation credit was taken for the existing medical office. Note that given the land uses for the proposed development, pass-by is anticipated during the AM and PM peak hours. Based on ITE Trip Generation Manual, 11th Edition supplemental pass-by appendices, the proposed fast-food restaurant with drive-through window is anticipated to have a pass-by rate of 50% during the AM peak hour and 55% during the PM peak hour, and the proposed convenience store and gas station is anticipated to have a pass-by rate of 76% during the AM peak hour and 75% during the PM peak hour. The expected net new project trips presented in Table 3 represent the gross project trips minus the pass-by trips attributable to the proposed land uses.

The proposed trip distribution is shown in Figure 4. Trip assignment based on the trip distribution is shown in Figure 5.The AM and PM pass-by distribution is shown in Figure 6.The AM and PM pass-by trip assignment based on the pass-by distribution is shown in Figure 7. The assignment of traffic generated by the site was calculated by applying the distribution percentage for a specific turning movement to the total number of inbound or outbound trips generated to establish the turning movement volume at that location. The resulting build volumes for the AM and PM peak hours are shown in Figure 8. The Build condition traffic volumes were calculated by adding the site generated trips to the projected No-Build traffic volumes. 2 'Int 2'! 3 'Int 3'!1 'Int 1'!47%5%(47%)(3%)5%(97%)50% 3% (50%) (47%)50%N NOT TO SCALE Figure 4 Trip Distribution© 2023 Legend Study Roadway Study Intersection XX% Entering Trip Distribution (XX%)Exiting Trip Distribution SITE SouthProjectDrivewayNorth Project Driveway FranklinRoadValley Avenue 2 'Int 2'! 3 'Int 3'!1 'Int 1'!(21)2628(23)(1)(43)3 (2)25228 (23) (1)2 (21)25 (23)28(22)27 N NOT TO SCALE Figure 5 Trip Assignment© 2023 Legend Study Roadway Study Intersection XX A.M.

Build conditions were compared to No-Build condition results from signal timing inputs modeled in Synchro files provided by VDOT. A consistent cycle length of 110 seconds was used to compare results between No-Build and Build conditions as requested by VDOT. During the AM and PM peak hours, all movements and approaches at the intersection of Franklin Road and Valley Avenue/Southern Hills Drive operate at LOS D or better except for the eastbound left-turn movement. Note that movement delay is expected to decrease by approximately 9.5 seconds during the AM peak hour and 8.8 seconds during the PM peak hour under Build conditions. Further note that all minor street movement delays are expected to decrease and the overall intersection operates at LOS C or better under build conditions. During the AM and PM peak hours, the southbound stop-controlled approach at the south project driveway is expected to operate at LOS C or better. Based on the Build condition results summarized, no improvements are warranted nor recommended at the intersection of Franklin Road and Valley Avenue/Southern Hills Drive given the already planned future thru-cut improvements. The control delay and LOS results are summarized in Table 4. The intersection capacity analysis results are included in Appendix C. 7.1 BUILD CONDITIONS QUEUING ANALYSIS The SimTraffic 95th percentile and maximum queue lengths were calculated for all movements at the intersection of Franklin Road and Valley Avenue/Southern Hills Drive and project driveways. Queue analysis reports were generated based on the average of 10 microsimulation runs. Note that no SimTraffic model calibration was conducted. Therefore, based on discussions with VDOT, vehicle queue length results are summarized in Table 5 for informational purposes only. The queuing analysis results are included in Appendix D. Version 3 January 2024 kimley-horn.com Traffic Impact Analysis Sheetz at Franklin Road and Valley Avenue 18 Table 4: Control Delay and LOS Summary (1) Intersection is configurated as a thru-cut in no-build and build conditions, therefore, no westbound or eastbound through movement LOS is reported. (2) Intersection does not exist under existing and no-build conditions, therefore, no LOS is reported. (3) HCM overall intersection delay is not reported for two-way stop-controlled intersections. Table 5: SimTraffic Queuing Summary (1) Movement does not exist under no-build or build conditions as the intersection is configured as a thru-cut. (2) Lane assignment does not existing under existing conditions. (3) Lane assignment does not exist under no-build and build conditions. (4) Lane is continuous under no-build and build conditions. (5) Intersection does not exist under existing and no-build conditions. (6) Adjacent through movement queue blocks lane from being used. Therefore, queue reported does not represent the actual vehicle movement queue.

The requirements are based on the spacing standards outlined Table 2-2 and Figure 4-11 in Appendix F of the VDOT Road Design Manual. Access to the proposed development will be provided via one full-access driveway along the north side of Valley Avenue (south project driveway) and one partial access (right-in only) driveway (north project driveway) along the west side of Franklin Road. The VDOT spacing standard between a traffic signal and a right-in (partial access) entrance in Table 2-2 is 305 feet for a 45 mph, principle arterial (Franklin Road). The distance from the signalized intersection to the partial access entrance is approximately 190 feet, which does not meet the spacing requirement. An access management exception (AM-E) form will be submitted for VDOT review as a separate document to address the deficient driveway spacing. The VDOT spacing standard for commercial entrances on local streets in Figure 4-11 is 50 feet between their entrance radii. The proposed full-access driveway will tie into Valley Avenue west of Franklin Road and will serve as the northern leg of the intersection. At the full-access driveway on Valley Avenue, there is approximately 120 feet of separation between its own entrance radii and the radii at the intersection of Franklin Road and Valley Avenue/Southern Hill Drive which meets spacing standards. However, based on correspondence with VDOT, the intersection was determined to be within the functional area of the intersection and will require an AM-E form for approval. Turn lane warrant analyses were conducted at the proposed project driveways using turn lane warrant standards outlined in Appendix F of the VDOT Road Design Manual. The right-turn lane warrant analysis at the north project driveway showed that a full-width southbound right-turn lane with taper is warranted. Note that there is currently an existing southbound right-turn lane along Franklin Road which will serve the north project driveway. The right and left-turn lane warrant analyses at the south project driveway showed that a full-width westbound right-turn lane with taper is warranted. However, given geometric limitations and practicality, no turn lanes are proposed at the south project driveway. Note that the turn lane warrants conducted are applicable along a 2-lane highway. As Valley Avenue is not a 2-lane highway, the turn lane warrants conducted are not a direct representation of the warrant criteria. The development will however consolidate three existing driveways along Valley Avenue into one entrance/exit (south project driveway) to improve access management conditions. Nonetheless, a design wavier will be provided for the proposed south project driveway. Justification will be provided regarding the constraints and limitations to provide a right-turn taper at the proposed driveway within the design wavier document. The turn lane warrant analysis using Appendix F of the VDOT Road Design Manual is included in Appendix F. Version 3 January 2024 kimley-horn.com Traffic Impact Analysis Sheetz at Franklin Road and Valley Avenue 20 Figure 9: Access Management Version 3 January 2024 kimley-horn.com Traffic Impact Analysis Sheetz at Franklin Road and Valley Avenue 21 9 CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS The Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA) documented in this report evaluates the traffic impacts of the proposed 6,139 square-foot Sheetz gas station and convenience store with 12 fueling positions (the ‘Project’) in Roanoke, Virginia. The proposed development will be located within the northwest quadrant of the intersection of Franklin Road (US Route 220), hereafter referred to as Franklin Road, and Valley Avenue/Southern Hills Drive. Access to the proposed development will be provided via one full-access driveway along the north side of Valley Avenue (south project driveway) and one partial access (right-in only) driveway (north project driveway) along the west side of Franklin Road. Traffic operations were analyzed at the intersection of Franklin Road and Valley Avenue/Southern Hills Drive during the AM and PM peak hours using Synchro 11 for the Existing (2023), projected No-Build (2025), and projected Build (2025) conditions. Additionally, based on correspondence with VDOT, SimTraffic queues were reported for information purposes only. The intersection of Franklin Road and Valley Avenue/Southern Hills Drive was analyzed as a signalized thru-cut in No-Build and Build conditions based on future intersection improvements confirmed by VDOT. To mitigate the additional traffic volumes generated by the proposed development, signal timing modifications are recommended to improve delay at the proposed signalized thru-cut at Franklin Road and Valley Avenue/Southern Hills Drive. With the implemented signal timing improvements, during the AM and PM peak hours, all movements and approaches at the intersection of Franklin Road and Valley Avenue/Southern Hills Drive operate at LOS D or better except for the eastbound left-turn movement. Note that movement delay is expected to decrease by approximately 9.5 seconds during the AM peak hour and 8.8 seconds during the PM peak hour under Build conditions. Further note that all minor street movement delays are expected to decrease and the overall intersection operates at LOS C or better under build conditions. During the AM and PM peak hours, the southbound stop-controlled approach at the south project driveway located on Valley Avenue is expected to operate at LOS C or better. Therefore, additional traffic generated by the proposed development is not expected to significantly or adversely impact the study intersection. Based on access management spacing standards reviewed, the proposed north project driveway does not meet access management spacing and will require an access management exception (AM-E) form for submittal to VDOT for review. The proposed south project driveway will also require an AM-E form for review. Turn lane warrant analyses were conducted at the proposed project driveways. The right-turn lane warrant analysis at the north project driveway showed that a full-width southbound right-turn lane with taper is warranted. Note that there is currently an existing southbound right-turn lane along Franklin Road which will serve the north project driveway. The turn lane warrant analyses at the south project driveway showed that a full-width westbound right- turn lane with taper is warranted. However, given geometric limitations and practicality, no turn lanes are proposed at the south project driveway. Note that the turn lane warrants conducted are applicable along a 2-lane highway. As Valley Avenue is not a 2-lane highway, the turn lane warrants conducted are not a direct representation of the warrant criteria. The development will however consolidate three existing driveways along Valley Avenue into one entrance/exit (south project driveway) to improve access management conditions. Nonetheless, a design wavier will be provided for the proposed south project driveway. Justification will be provided regarding the constraints and limitations to provide a right-turn taper at the proposed driveway within the design wavier document.

D.3 AT A REGULAR MEETING OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF ROANOKE COUNTY, VIRGINIA HELD AT THE ROANOKE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION CENTER MEETING DATE: March 26, 2024 AGENDA ITEM: Ordinance authorizing the granting of new public drainage easements to the Board of Supervisors of Roanoke County, on property owned by 1) Alice B. Kefauver (Tax Map# 079.01-01-64.00-0000), located at 3020 Pebble Drive, 2) Roy M. Carpenter (Tax Map# 079.01-01-61.00-0000), located at 3017 Woodway Road, 3) Leonard W. Stiff and Rebecca G. Stiff (Tax Map 079.01-01-63.00-0000), located at 3012 Pebble Drive, and, 4) David L. Bratton (Tax Map # 079.01-01-62.00-0000), located at 3006 Pebble Drive, for the purpose of constructing drainage improvements; Vinton Magisterial District SUBMITTED BY: Tarek Moneir Director of Development Services APPROVED BY: Richard L. Caywood County Administrator ISSUE: Ordinance authorizing the acquisition of new public drainage easements to the Board of Supervisors of Roanoke County for multiple properties (Tax Map #s. 079.01 -01-64.00- 0000, 079.01-01-61.00-0000; 079.01-01-63.00-0000; and 079.01-01-62.00-0000) for the purpose of drainage improvements, in the Vinton Magisterial District. BACKGROUND: Alice B. Kefauver, Roy M. Carpenter, Leonard W. Stiff and Rebecca G. Stiff, and David L. Bratton, who own properties located between Pebble Drive and Woodway Road, are granting drainage easements to the Roanoke County Board of Supervisors located as shown on the attached plats. These easements are of the purpose of correcting long-standing drainage problems. DISCUSSION: Page 2 of 3 The subject parcels were developed in the 1960s, and the drainage system consists of un-reinforced concrete pipe that is cracking and separating at the joints. Portions of the drainage system in this area have already been replaced, and the current proposed work will address long-standing problems. Total failure of said pipe could result in significant flooding and property damage to the homes in the area. In order to correct this long-standing drainage issue, additional easements are needed. As shown on Exhibit “A,” there is an existing 15 feet wide sanitary and drainage easement that was established when the development occurred, which crosses the same properties that are the subject of this ordinance. The owners of the impacted parcels (see Exhibit "A") have agreed to donate public drainage easements to Roanoke County for construction and maintenance of the proposed improvements. Properties considered for this ordinance include: Alice B. Kefauver (Tax Map# 079.01-01-64.00-0000) Roy M. Carpenter (Tax Map # 079.01-01-61.00-0000) Leonard W. Stiff and Rebecca G. Stiff (Tax Map 079.01-01-63.00-0000) David L. Bratton (Tax Map # 079.01-01-62.00-0000) Maps indicating the location of each proposed easement are attached to this report (see "Exhibit A"). The easements are necessary for the installation and maintenance of a new drainage system. The new drainage system will be designed and constructed to provide positive drainage. FISCAL IMPACT: There is no cost to Roanoke County for preparation of the easement deeds as they have been prepared by Roanoke County staff. Roanoke County will advertise for bids for construction of the drainage improvements. The estimated cost of $380,000 for this project is covered by the American Rescue Plan Act known as ARPA funding available for the Department of Development Services and previously approved by the Board of Supervisors. Future maintenance for this said easement will be covered by routine maintenance efforts by Department of Development Services. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Page 3 of 3 There have been no changes since the first reading of this ordinance. Staff recommends approval of this ordinance.

D.4 AT A REGULAR MEETING OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF ROANOKE COUNTY, VIRGINIA HELD AT THE ROANOKE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION CENTER MEETING DATE: March 26, 2024 AGENDA ITEM: Amendments to County Code Chapter 19 – Solicitors and Solicitations SUBMITTED BY: Peter S. Lubeck County Attorney APPROVED BY: Richard L. Caywood County Administrator ISSUE: Proposed Amendments to County Code Chapter 19 - Solicitors and Solicitations. BACKGROUND: Recent U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit case law has rendered portions of this Chapter unconstitutional, and the General Assembly has implemented a comprehensive statutory scheme governing solicitations by charitable and civic organizations which severely limits the county’s ability to legislate in this area. DISCUSSION: Panhandling: Recent U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit case law has rendered portions of our Code unconstitutional with regards to personal solicitation of charitable contributions (i.e. begging/panhandling). See, e.g., Reynolds v. Middleton, 779 F.3d 222 (4th Cir. 2015) (Henrico County’s ordinance, which prohibited solicitation within county roadways, was ruled unconstitutional.). Charitable Solicitation: As noted above, the state has implemented a comprehensive statutory scheme governing charitable and civic organizations. The state statute allows the county to pass an ordinance but only if it is not inconsistent with the state code, and severely restricts the type of organizations which the county can regulate. Those limitations boil down to only allowing the county to require local civic organizations to apply for a permit prior to soliciting funds. Further, before any such ord inance can take Page 2 of 2 effect, it must be submitted to and approved by the Commissioner of Agriculture and Consumer Services. We propose deleting “Article II Permit for Charitable Solicitations” (County Code sections 19-21 through 28) and taking advantage of Virginia Code § 57 - 63(D). Section 57-63(D) allows the locality to pass an ordinance requiring charitable organizations, that are required to register with the state, to also register with the county when they are planning on soliciting contributions in the county, and to inform the county of the names of its solicitors that will be in the county. If the Board decides to delete sections 19-21 through 28, the county will still have a remedy against problematic fund raisers. For example, if the police become aware of an organization soliciting funds while committing misrepresentation or fraud, they can enforce County Code 19 - 8(c) (prohibiting misrepresentation and fraud). In addition, the County Attorney is specifically authorized by Virginia Code § 57-59(D) to bring an action, in the name of the Commonwealth, to enjoin the violation of any of the applicable state code provisions. The Proposed Changes Commercial Solicitation: The County has more freedom to regulate in this area; therefore, the few commercial solicitation regulations in Chapter 19 do not require major modification. However, staff recommends adding that commercial solicitors may begin their planned activities as soon as they have submitted the required information and fee. Regarding Panhandling: Staff proposes deleting the unconstitutional portions of Chapter 19 regarding panhandling (personal solicitations). Regarding Charitable Solicitation: Staff proposes deleting “Article II Permit for Charitable Solicitations” (County Code 19-21 through 28) and taking advantage of Virginia Code § 57-63(D) which allows the County to require charitable organizations, which are required to register with the state, to inform the county when they will be soliciting in the County and the names of their solicitors. Regarding Commercial Solicitation: Staff proposes adding that the commercial solicitors may begin their planned activities as soon as they have submitted the required information and fee. FISCAL IMPACT: There is no fiscal impact associated with the proposed changes to Chapter 19 of the County Code. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approving the first reading of the proposed ordinance, and scheduling the second reading for April 9, 2024. Page 1 of 8 Note: Text additions are in red font. Text deletions are in red font and are struck through.

The short-term rental shall be limited to the lower level of the existing residential dwelling (approximately 2,200 square feet). 2. The number of overnight guests shall not exceed six (6) people. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: Kevin Manor is petitioning to obtain a special use permit to operate a short-term rental on approximately 1.23 acres of land zoned R-1, Low Density Residential District, located at 4127 Mockingbird Hill Road in the Hollins Magisterial District. The short- term rental is proposed for the lower level only of the single-family dwelling. The 2005 Roanoke County Comprehensive Plan indicates the Future Land Use Designation of this parcel is Neighborhood Conservation. Neighborhood Conservation is a future land use area where established single-family neighborhoods are delineated and the conservation of the existing development pattern is encouraged. The proposed special use permit is consistent with the Neighborhood Conservation future land use designation. 1. APPLICABLE REGULATIONS The Roanoke County Zoning Ordinance defines a short-term rental as “the provision of a room or space that is suitable or intended for occupancy for dwelling, sleeping, or lodging purposes, for a period of fewer than 30 consecutive days, in exchange for a charge for the occupancy. This use does not include existing uses defined in this ordinance including bed and breakfast, bed and breakfast inn, boarding house, country inn, and hotel/motel/motor lodge.” Section 30-85-24.55 of the Roanoke County Zoning Ordinance contains the following use and design standards for short-term rentals: (A) General Standards: 1. The applicant shall obtain a zoning permit prior to the occupation of a room or dwelling for short-term rental. The zoning permit application shall include, but not be limited to, the following information: a. All relevant parcel information including tax map number, zoning district, address, and magisterial district. b. The applicant’s name, address, and personal contact information. c. The name, address, and personal contact information of the authorized party responsible for resolving complaints, if different from the applicant. 2 2. The County shall be notified within thirty (30) days of any change in the applicant’s address or personal contact information, or any change in the name, address or personal contact information of the authorized party responsible for resolving complaints. 3. A short-term rental zoning permit expires upon any change in ownership of the property. 4. A short-term rental zoning permit may be revoked by the Zoning Administrator due to the failure of the applicant to comply with all applicable regulations set forth in this section or elsewhere in the Zoning Ordinance or County Code. (B) In the R-1 and R-2 zoning district, the following standard shall apply: 1. A special use permit shall be required on lots less than five (5) acres. Lots that are five (5) acres or greater in size, a short-term rental shall be considered a use permitted by right. Since the property for this proposed short-term rental is zoned R-1 and is not five (5) acres or greater, a special use permit is required. 2.

Planning (540) 772-2068 5204 Bernard Dr. Roanoke VA 24018 Subject Site (A) (A) 1. 2. SEC. 30-41. - R-1 LOW DENSITY RESIDENTIAL DISTRICT. Sec. 30-41-1. - Purpose. The R-1, low density residential district is established for areas of the county within the urban service area with existing low-middle density residential development, with an average density of from one (1) to three (3) units per acre, and land which appears appropriate for such development. These areas are generally consistent with the neighborhood conservation land use category as recommended in the comprehensive plan. In addition, where surrounding development and the level of public services warrant, these areas coincide with the development category recommended in the plan. This district is intended to provide the highest degree of protection from potentially incompatible uses and residential development of a significantly different density, size, or scale, in order to maintain the health, safety, appearance and overall quality of life of existing and future neighborhoods. In addition to single-family residences, only uses of a community nature which are generally deemed compatible are permitted in this district. This would include parks and playgrounds, schools and other similar neighborhood activities. (Ord. No. 042799-11, § 1f., 4-27-99; Ord. No. 042208-16, § 1, 4-22-08) Sec. 30-41-2. - Permitted uses.
