Today, the Clerk of the Circuit Court is a locally elected constitutional officer who serves as the administrator of the Circuit Court of the locality. The Clerk has over 800 legal and administrative duties set out by the Code of Virginia, ranging from maintaining criminal and civil case records to recording deeds and managing probate matters. Unlike other states, where these tasks are distributed across different agencies, these duties fall under the authority of the Circuit Court Clerk in Virginia. II.

Cronise Assistant Director of Planning APPROVED BY: Richard L. Caywood County Administrator ISSUE: Discussion of the County's Secondary Road Six-Year Improvement Plan. BACKGROUND: Each year the Board of Supervisors approves the County's Secondary Road Six -Year Improvement Plan (SSYP) and the construction priority list for the upcoming fiscal year. The estimated allocation for the SSYP is $1,924,818 for fiscal years 2026 through 2031 with $318,967 allocated for fiscal year 2026. DISCUSSION: SSYP allocations for Roanoke County are typically designated through the following two (2) funds: 1) TeleFee: Generated from telecommunications providers paying a Public Rights - of-Way Use Fee. 2) District Grant - Unpaved: For paving VDOT-maintained unpaved roads with an Annual Average Daily Traffic Volume (AADT) of 50 vehicle trips or more. The SSYP is comprised of the following programs and components: District Grant - Unpaved: Three (3) VDOT-maintained unpaved roads are currently Page 2 of 3 programmed for paving: Webb Road: $241,493 is the project estimate and paving should be complete in the next few weeks. Berganblick Lane: $200,000 is the project estimate and construction is anticipated in FY 2026. Boones Chapel Road: $400,000 is the project estimate and construction is anticipated in FY 2030. VDOT and Roanoke County staff recommend adding approximately 0.3 mile of Honeysuckle Road between Poor Mountain Road and the driveway serving 7916 Honeysuckle Road for paving in FY 2033. The estimate is $350,000. Other Prioritized Projects: These projects are larger reconstruction projects for existing secondary roads. Five (5) projects are included and several have additional funding sources: Starkey Road/Buck Mountain Road Intersection Improvements: All SSYP funding in the amount of $13,444 has been allocated, as has Revenue Sharing Program (50/50 VDOT/County match), Regional Surface Transportation Program and SMART SCALE funding. Total project funding is $5,841,480. This project is complete and is awaiting VDOT project closeout. Fallowater Lane Extension: $1,495,521 in SSYP funding was allocated in previous fiscal years with additional funds from the Revenue Sharing Program. Total project funding is $4,340,115. This project is complete and is awaiting VDOT project closeout. Dry Hollow Road: All SSYP funding in the amount of $930,217 has been allocated to the project, which also has Revenue Sharing Program funding and a current estimate of $7,433,802. VDOT is administering this project. A community meeting was held in November 2024 to explain the new project design and timeline. The right -of-way phase is anticipated to begin in the next few months and construction advertisement is anticipated in Summer 2026. Franklin Street Improvements: $350,000 is allocated to the project and design is underway. Construction is anticipated to begin later this year. Timberview Road Improvements: $500,000 is identified to scope and fund Timberview Road improvements. Construction is anticipated in fiscal year 2028. VDOT and County staff recommend adding Hardy Road and Feather Road intersection improvements to the SSYP with an estimate of $150,000. Construction is anticipated in Page 3 of 3 fiscal year 2031. Countywide Incidental Improvements: Approximately $35,000 is allocated in fiscal year 2026 for services that include plan review, right -of-way engineering, preliminary engineering and surveys, traffic services, safety projects, minor drainage improvements, fertilization and seeding. FISCAL IMPACT: For the above projects that include Revenue Sharing Program funding, this funding has been approved through previous actions by the Board of Supervisors. Taking action to adopt the resolution approving the SSYP will have no fiscal impact on the County budget, as this is VDOT funding designated for secondary road projects within Roanoke County. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Board of Supervisors adopt the resolution approving the Secondary Road Six-Year Improvement Plan for fiscal years 2026 through 2031 and the construction priority list and estimated allocations for fiscal year 2026.

The Roanoke County Fire & Rescue Department continues to meet those annual requirements to remain eligible for grant funding. FISCAL IMPACT: The grant funds awarded from the "Four-for-Life" program total $98,442.24. No county match is required for the acceptance of this grant. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends the acceptance and allocation of grant funds to the Fire and Rescue Department in the amount of $98,442.24 from the Virginia Department of Health Office of Emergency Medical Services. COMMONWEALTH of VIRGINIA Department of Health Office of Emergency Medical Services 1-800-523-6019 (VA only) 1041 Technology Park Drive 804-888-9100 Glen Allen, VA 23059-4500 FAX: 804-371-3108 April 01, 2025 COUNTY OF ROANOKE VIRGINIA 5204 Bernard Dr Roanoke VA 24018-4345 Dear City/County Administrator: IMMEDIATE ATTENTION REQUIRED Please return this report within 30 days Your locality will be receiving the Fiscal Year 2025 "Four-For-Life" payment for Emergency Medical Services (EMS) in the amount of $98,442.24 . These funds are for the collection period April 01, 2024 through March 31, 2025. Guidelines for the use of these funds are attached and are available on our website: http://www.vdh.virginia.gov/emergency-medical-services/return-to-locality/ . Prior to distribution of these funds to the local government, this office must receive your Report of Expenditures on last year's distribution. The total amount that must be reported for last year's distribution is annotated on the enclosed report. The Four-For-Life program, as amended in 2000, stipulates that four additional dollars be charged and collected at the time of registration of each passenger vehicle, pickup or panel truck. The funds collected, pursuant to Section 46.2-694, Code of Virginia, shall be used only for emergency medical services. The law further states that the Department of Health shall return twenty-six percent (26%) of the registration fees collected to the locality wherein such vehicle is registered to provide funding for: 1.Training of volunteer or salaried emergency medical service personnel of licensed, non-profit emergency medical service agencies; or 2.The purchase of necessary equipment and supplies for licensed, non-profit emergency medical service agencies. It is important to recognize two clauses in the Four-For-Life legislation: (1) non-supplanting funds and (2) failure to report the use of funds by any local governing body will result in funds being retained. The Assistant Attorney General, at our request has offered the following interpretation for use of the funds. "Any funds received from Section 46.2-694 by a non-state agency cannot be used to match any other funds derived from Section 46.2-694 by that same non- state agency" Simply put, funds returned to localities cannot be used as the matching share of any grants offered using Four-For-Life funds. "Each local governing body shall report to the Board of Health on the use of Four-For-Life funds, which were returned to it. In any case in which the local governing body grants the funds to a regional emergency medical council to be distributed to licensed, non-profit emergency medical and rescue services, the local governing body shall remain responsible for the proper use of the funds. If, at the end of any fiscal year, a report on the use of Four-For-Life funds for that year has not been received from a local governing body, any funds due to that local governing body for the next fiscal year shall be retained until such time as the report has been submitted to the board." If you have any questions or need additional information, please do not hesitate to contact the Office of Emergency Medical Services at 804-888-9100. Sincerely, Michael D.

Page 1 of 2 ACTION NO. ITEM NO. J.1 AT A REGULAR MEETING OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF ROANOKE COUNTY, VIRGINIA HELD AT THE ROANOKE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION CENTER MEETING DATE: April 22, 2025 AGENDA ITEM: The petition of Cavern, LLC to rezone approximately 1.286 acres from R-1, Low Density Residential District, to C-2, High Intensity Commercial District, to construct a hotel located at 5709, 5755, and 5761 Fallbrooke Drive, Catawba Magisterial District. SUBMITTED BY: Philip Thompson Director of Planning APPROVED BY: Richard L. Caywood County Administrator ISSUE: Second reading and public hearing to rezone approximately 1.286 acres of property from residential to commercial. BACKGROUND: The Roanoke County Zoning Ordinance defines hotel/motel/motor lodge as “a building or group of attached or detached buildings containing lodging units intended primarily for rental or lease to transients by the day, week, or month. Such uses generally provide additional services such as daily maid service, restaurants, meeting rooms and/or recreation facilities.” Hotel/motel/motor lodge is a permitted use in the C-2, High Intensity Commercial District. DISCUSSION: The Planning Commission held a public hearing on this application on April 1, 2025. Two (2) citizens spoke during the public hearing. Their concerns/issues included: stormwater management; drainage ditch from the Exxon station is inadequate; additional development would add to the current drainage problem; drainage ditch was Page 2 of 2 not properly installed and maintained; flooding; runoff concerns from future I -81 widening; and need to protect viewsheds of Dixie Caverns. The Planning Commission discussed: stormwater management; runoff; buffers; drainage shed of the main channel; flooding; erosion and sediment control; drainage ditch maintenance and capacity; stormwater quality; karst; site plan review process; stormwater maintenance agreements; surrounding land uses and zoning; and the project being consistent with the future land use designation of Core. The Planning Commission recommends approval of the rezoning from R -1 to C-2 with the following proffered condition: 1. The property shall be limited to the following uses: Hotel / Motel / Motor Lodge. FISCAL IMPACT: There is no fiscal impact on this agenda item. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Board of Supervisors approve the second reading of an ordinance to rezone approximately 1.286 acres from R-1, Low Density Residential District, to C-2, High Intensity Commercial District, with the following proffered condition: 1. The property shall be limited to the following uses: Hotel / Motel / Motor Lodge. STAFF REPORT Petitioner: Cavern, LLC Request: To rezone approximately 1.286 acres of land from R-1, Low Density Residential District to C-2, High Intensity Commercial District Location: Tax Parcels: 5709, 5755, and 5761 Fallbrooke Drive #064.03-02-01.00-0000, 064.03-02-02.00-0000, 064.03-02-02.01-0000 Proposed Proffered Condition: 1. The property shall be limited to the following uses: Hotel/Motel/Motor Lodge EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: Cavern, LLC is petitioning to rezone approximately 1.286 acres of land zoned R-1, Low Intensity Residential District, located at 5709, 5755, and 5761 Fallbrooke Drive in the Catawba Magisterial District to C-2, High Intensity Commercial District, for Hotel/Motel/Motor Lodge Use. This project would involve combining the three parcels proposed for rezoning and incorporating part of the adjacent Caverns Market parcel at 5721 Fallbrooke Drive into the new parcel to facilitate a site for a hotel. The applicant owns 5721 Fallbrooke Drive and has proposed inter- parcel connectivity between the two sites in addition to a new entrance on Fallbrooke Drive. The Roanoke County 200 Plan indicates the future land use designation of this property as Core, which is a future land use area where high intensity urban commercial and high-density residential developments are encouraged. Land uses within core areas may parallel the central business districts of Roanoke, Salem and Vinton. Core areas may also be appropriate for larger-scale highway-oriented retail uses and regionally-based shopping facilities. The proposed rezoning is consistent with the future land use designation of Core. 1. APPLICABLE REGULATIONS The Roanoke County Zoning Ordinance defines hotel/motel/motor lodge as “a building or group of attached or detached buildings containing lodging units intended primarily for rental or lease to transients by the day, week, or month. Such uses generally provide additional services such as daily maid service, restaurants, meeting rooms and/or recreation facilities.” Hotel/motel/motor lodge use is permitted in the C-2, High Intensity Commercial District. If the rezoning is approved, construction would require comprehensive building and site plan reviews. 2. ANALYSIS OF EXISTING CONDITIONS Background – The three properties proposed for rezoning are currently vacant other than a small structure at the southeast part of the property that will be removed as part of the proposed project. Prior to the structures associated with that use have since been demolished. Topography/Vegetation – The parcels are mostly wooded, with a mix of evergreen and deciduous trees throughout. The parcel generally slopes downward from northeast to southwest, with steeper slopes along the boundaries of the property paralleling I-81 and Dow Hollow Road. Dow Hollow Road on the northeast side, and I-81 on the northwest. The parcel to the southwest across Fallbrooke Drive, which is Dixie Caverns, has split C-2, High Intensity Commercial District, and AR, Agricultural/Residential District zoning. Caverns Market, which the applicant also owns, is to the southeast of the parcel, and is zoned C-2S, High Intensity Commercial District w/ Special Use Permit. A portion of this parcel would be combined into the parcels proposed for rezoning. The Special Use Permit is related to the Caverns Market parcel formerly being a part of the Dixie Caverns parcel and does not apply to this project. The parcels across Dow Hollow Road to the northeast are also zoned C-2, High intensity Commercial District, with current residential use. Community Outreach – Approximately 10 letters went out to adjoining property owners and tenants which contained the request, information about the subject parcel, instructions for how to submit comments and contact information for staff. At the time of this report, many comments have been received by staff. These included concerns regarding negative impacts on Dixie Caverns cave and campground, stormwater runoff, and local wildlife. 3.ANALYSIS OF PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT Site Layout/Architecture – The submitted concept plan in the application packet indicates that the new parcel would be 2.20 total acres and would include a 4-story hotel with 87 rooms and 89 parking spaces. The applicant indicated that this concept plan is a vision for the property, but the layout could change based on the specific hotel branding that is selected. There are no buffer requirements for the proposed rezoning. and from internal connections to the adjacent Caverns Market site. A traffic study was previously prepared in 2016 for the Caverns Market development. This was revised with actual traffic volumes of the development and resubmitted in 2024. This traffic study (attached), in concurrence with VDOT, shows that the proposed development would minimally affect delay and level of service, and that no additional turn lane Agencies Comments: The following agencies provided comments on this application: Office of Building Safety – All construction on site will need to meet the requirements of the Virginia Uniform Statewide Building Code. Virginia Department of Transportation – 1. A Land Use Permit will be required if a new entrance is needed from the VDOT right-of way or for the change in use of an existing entrance. 2. If any future modifications to existing entrances or installations of new entrances are planned, the VDOT Road Design Manual, Appendix F: Access Management Design Standards for Entrances and Intersections must be adhered to where applicable for commercial entrances. This includes, but is not limited to, entrance spacing and intersection sight distance. The intersection sight distance must be field verified, and measures taken to ensure the minimum 3. The traffic analysis for this development received VDOT concurrence on October 15, 2024. 4. VDOT will not issue an approval of the plans, or any necessary Land Use Permits until the locality approves this request. In addition, information regarding any changes to the existing drainage system should also be included in this review. Stormwater Operations - The receiving channel from the stormwater management facility should be evaluated for adequacy. Does not appear to be a designed channel. Also, severe erosion is occurring along the natural watercourse. Any increase in flows will contribute to further erosion and loss of property. The design engineer will need to pay close attention to the after-development flows and ensure that the numbers are conservative. Fire and Rescue – Fire and Rescue does not object to the project, and it does not affect the services we provide. Fire flow and access requirements will be addressed during the site plan review process. General Services – General Services does not see any issues and has no comments. Western Virginia Water Authority – WVWA cannot guarantee a connection can be made to the sewer force main without further analyzing the capacity of this section of the sanitary sewer system. Roanoke County Transportation 1. The SMART SCALE application submitted in August 2024 for a peanut-style roundabout to serve the Dow Hollow/West Main Street/Fallbrooke Drive intersections was not recommended for funding. VDOT is currently considering other alternatives to improve safety at this intersection. 2. Please provide a crosswalk and ADA-accessible ramps to connect the sidewalk proposed for the hotel to sidewalk at the Exxon/Which Wich. 3. Please provide ADA-accessible ramps for all locations where the proposed sidewalk intersects with curbing. 4. The Exxon/Which Wich dumpster pad appears to conflict with the northeastern entrance. The dumpsters/dumpster pad or the entrance should be relocated to reduce potential conflicts. 5. A turnaround meeting VDOT standards needs to be provided at the end of Fallbrooke Drive. 4. CONFORMANCE WITH ROANOKE COUNTY COMPREHENSIVE PLAN The Roanoke County 200 Plan indicates the future land use designation of this area as Core. Core is a future land use area where high intensity urban commercial and high-density residential developments are encouraged. Land uses within core areas may parallel the central business districts of Roanoke, Salem and Vinton. Core areas may also be appropriate for larger-scale highway-oriented retail uses and regionally- based shopping facilities. The proposed rezoning is consistent with the future land use designation of Core. The Glenvar Community Plan (2012) affirms that the Core future land use designation around Interstate 81 off ramps at exit 132 (Dow Hollow) is appropriate for higher intensity commercial development that includes hotels. A relevant excerpt from the plan is attached. 5. STAFF CONCLUSIONS Cavern, LLC is petitioning to rezone approximately 1.286 acres of land zoned R-1, Low Intensity Residential District, located at 5709, 5755, and 5761 Fallbrooke Drive in the Catawba Magisterial District to C-2, High three parcels proposed for rezoning and incorporating part of the adjacent Caverns Market parcel at 5721 Fallbrooke Drive into the new parcel to facilitate a site for a hotel. The future land use designation of the parcel is Core, and the proposal is consistent with this designation. The applicant has proposed one (1) proffered condition with the proposed rezoning, which would limit the property to hotel/motel/motor lodge use.

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 impos ed 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. The County Planning Division staff may exempt some of the items or suggest the addition of extra items, but the following are considered minimum: 7 Community Development Planning & Zoning Division POTENTIAL OF NEED FOR TRAFFIC ANALYSIS AND/OR TRAFFIC IMPACT STUDY The following is a list of potentially high traffic-generating land uses and road network situations that could elicit a more detailed analysis of the existing and proposed traffic pertinent to your rezoning, subdivision waiver, public street waiver, or special use permit request. If your request involves one of the items on the ensuing list, we recommend that you meet with a County planner, the County traffic engineer, and/or Virginia Department of Transportation staff to discuss the potential additional traffic related information that may need to be submitted with the application in order to expedite your application process. (Note this list is not inclusive and the County staff and VDOT reserve the right to request a traffic study at any time, as deemed necessary.) High Traffic-Generating Land Uses:  Single-family residential subdivisions, Multi-family residential units, or Apartments with more than 75 dwelling units  Restaurant (with or without drive-through windows)  Gas station/Convenience store/Car wash  Retail shop/Shopping center  Offices (including: financial institutions, general, medical, etc.)  Regional public facilities  Educational/Recreational facilities  Religious assemblies  Hotel/Motel  Golf course  Hospital/Nursing home/Clinic  Industrial site/Factory  Day care center  Bank  Non-specific use requests Road Network Situations:  Development adjacent to/with access onto/within 500-ft of intersection of a roadway classified as an arterial road (e.g., Rte 11, 24, 115, 117, 460, 11/460, 220, 221, 419, etc)  For new phases or changes to a development where a previously submitted traffic study is more than two (2) years old and/or roadway conditions have changed significantly  When required to evaluate access issues  Development with ingress/egress on roads planned or scheduled for expansion, widening, improvements, etc. (i.e. on Long Range Transportation Plan, Six-Yr Road Plan, etc.)  Development in an area where there is a known existing traffic and/or safety problem  Development would potentially negatively impact existing/planned traffic signal(s)  Substantial departure from the Community Plan  Any site that is expected to generate over one hundred (100) trips during the peak hour of the traffic generator or the peak hour on the adjacent streets, or over seven hundred fifty (750) trips in an average day Effective date: April 19, 2005 8 Community Development Planning & Zoning Division NOTICE TO APPLICANTS FOR REZONING, SUBDIVISION WAIVER, PUBLIC STREET WAIVER, OR SPECIAL USE PERMIT PETITION PLANNING COMMISSION APPLICATION ACCEPTANCE PROCEDURE The Roanoke County Planning Commission reserves the right to continue a Rezoning, Subdivision Waiver, Public Street Waiver or Special Use Permit petition if new or additional information is presented at the public hearing. If it is the opinion of the majority of the Planning Commissioners present at the scheduled public hearing that sufficient time was not available for planning staff and/or an outside referral agency to adequately evaluate and provide written comments and suggestions on the new or additional information prior to the scheduled public hearing then the Planning Commission may vote to continue the petition. This continuance shall allow sufficient time for all necessary reviewing parties to evaluate the new or additional information and provide written comments and suggestions to be included in a written memorandum by planning staff to the Planning Commission. The Planning Commission shall consult with planning staff to determine if a continuance may be warranted. POTENTIAL OF NEED FOR TRAFFIC ANALYSES AND/OR TRAFFIC IMPACT STUDY The Roanoke County Planning Commission reserves the right to continue a Rezoning, Subdivision Waiver, Public Street Waiver, or Special Use Permit petition if the County Traffic Engineer or staff from the Virginia Department of Transportation requests further traffic analyses and/or a traffic impact study that would be beneficial in making a land use decision (Note: a list of potential land uses and situations that would necessitate further study is provided as part of this application package). This continuance shall allow sufficient time for all necessary reviewing parties to evaluate the required traffic analyses and/or traffic impact study and to provide written comments and/or suggestions to the planning staff and the Planning Commission. If a continuance is warranted, the applicant will be notified of the continuance and the newly scheduled public hearing date. Effective date: April 19, 2005 Name of Petition Petitioner’s Signature Date REZONING NARRATIVE On behalf of the applicant, Cavern, LLC, we are providing this narrative as supplemental information to support the attached rezoning application. This request is to rezone existing Roanoke County Tax Parcels #064.03-02-01.00-0000, 064.03-02-02.00-0000, and 064.03-02-02.01-0000 from R1, Low-Density Residential, to C2, High Intensity Commercial to allow for commercial development of the property. The applicant has previously developed the “Caverns Market” convenience store and fuel center located adjacent to these properties to the east. The site is located at the Interstate 81, Exit 132 interchange, adjacent to the northbound off-ramp. The parcels are owned by the applicant, Cavern, LLC. The applicant is placing a proffered condition on the property to limit the use to a hotel/motel/motor lodge only. A concept plan is included with the application indicating the vision for the property, although the layout could change based on the specific hotel branding that is selected. The total area of the hotel property will be approximately 2.20 acres, with 1.286 acres of this being residential property that is proposed to be rezoned and the remaining area part of existing Tax Parcel #064.03-02-03.00-0000 (C2S zoning). The existing Special Use Permit for the C2S property does not apply to this project and no zoning action is required for this property to allow for the hotel use on the remaining +/-0.92 acres. Existing Conditions The parcels proposed to be rezoned are currently vacant. There is a small structure in the southeast part of the property that will be removed as part of the proposed project. The property is bounded by Dow Hollow Road (Route 647) to the north and Fallbrooke Drive (Route 940) to the south. The Interstate 81 northbound, Exit 132 off-ramp is adjacent to the site to the west. To the east of the property is the existing Caverns Market convenience store and gas station and Which Wich restaurant. Access to the property is from the existing public right-of-way of Fallbrooke Drive. The site generally slopes from north to south from Dow Hollow Road across Fallbrooke Drive and eventually drains to the existing watercourse on the adjacent Dixie Caverns property. The final site design will comply with all applicable stormwater management and stormwater quality regulations. Access Vehicular access is anticipated to be from Fallbrooke Drive and from internal connections to the adjacent Caverns Market site. Due to topographic constraints, vehicular access is not anticipated from Dow Hollow Road. A Traffic Study was previously prepared in 2016 for the Caverns Market development. As discussed with VDOT, this study was revised with updated traffic count data (accounting for actual traffic volumes associated with the Caverns Market site) and projected traffic for a hotel on the subject properties. The updated Traffic Study was prepared by Balzer and Associates, Inc., dated July 8, 2024 and revised September 30, 2024. As summarized in the Traffic Study, the study intersections are sufficient to handle traffic from the proposed development with minimal impacts to delay and level of service. The existing turn lane infrastructure along West Main Street is sufficient to meet the requirements of the project at Fallbrooke Drive and no turn lanes are warranted along Fallbrooke Drive. VDOT has reviewed the Traffic Study and concurs with the results. Other entrance requirements will be evaluated and met with the final development plans. It should be noted that Roanoke County and VDOT are considering improvements to Route 460 at the Dow Hollow Road and Fallbrooke Drive intersections to increase safety and facilitate turning movements in this area. The current concept is for a “peanut” style roundabout. The applicant is aware of these potential improvements and these improvements would not have a negative impact on the development of this property or current rezoning request. Public Services This project will be served by public water and sanitary sewer utilities owned and maintained by the Western Virginia Water Authority. There are existing public water and sanitary sewer utilities adjacent to the property that the project will connect to. The development of the property is not expected to have a significant impact on public schools, parks/recreation, or fire and rescue. Comprehensive Development Plan Roanoke County’s Comprehensive Plan identifies the Future Land Use of this property as Core. The proposed rezoning request is consistent with this Future Land Use designation. The proposed high-intensity commercial zoning designation is a more appropriate zoning for this property than the current low density residential zoning. The proposed commercial zoning is ideal for this location adjacent to the Interstate 81 interchange and with adjacent commercial development to the south and the Dixie Caverns property to the west. The proposed rezoning request will further the goals of the Roanoke County Zoning Ordinance by allowing for development of a vacant property with a commercial use in an appropriate location of Roanoke County that is consistent with the Future Land Use Map. Commercial uses are lacking in this area of the County and this rezoning will allow the property to be developed and serve existing and future residents. The proposed request is consistent with the Zoning Ordinance, which indicates that: “High-intensity commercial districts are most appropriately found along major arterial thoroughfares which serve large segments of the County’s population…Land uses permitted in this district are generally consistent with the recommendations set forth in the transition and core land use categories of the Comprehensive Plan.” According to the Glenvar Community Plan, commercial uses made up less than 1% of the land area in the Glenvar Planning Area when the plan was developed in 2012. This area includes a significant amount of residential property. The proposed commercial development will support the existing residential and complement the nearby Caverns Market and Dixie Caverns properties. The location of this site along Interstate 81 will also further the Economic Development initiatives by providing an additional commercial business located within Roanoke County that will serve interstate travelers that may otherwise utilize businesses in other localities. Summary In summary, the proposed rezoning request is consistent with the goals and initiatives of Roanoke County and consistent with the Future Land Use of this property. This request will allow for an existing vacant property to be developed with an active commercial use that will provide an important service to existing and future residents of Roanoke County in an area that is currently under-served.

Introduction Cavern, LLC is proposing to construct a new hotel on +/-2 acres of land located at the end of Fallbrooke Drive in Roanoke County (see Appendix A for vicinity map and Appendix B for concept plan). The proposed hotel is anticipated to contain no more than 100 rooms. The site is located to the south of the existing unsignalized intersection of West Main Street, State Route 460/U.S. Route 11, and Dow Hollow Road, Route 647. Fallbrooke Drive, Route 940, is an existing road that provides access to this site, as well as the previously constructed Caverns Market convenience store and gas station and Which Wich fast food restaurant. A portion of Fallbrooke Drive was improved as part of the previous Caverns Market development and the remainder will be improved as necessary to serve the current project. The subject property consists of Roanoke County tax parcels #064.03-02-01.00-0000, 064.03-02-02.00- 0000, 064.03-02-02.01-0000, and a portion of 064.03-02-03.00-0000. These properties are currently zoned R-1, Low Density Residential, and proposed to be rezoned to C-2, High Intensity Commercial. West Main Street, State Route 460, is a four-lane, undivided urban minor arterial roadway (with two-way left turn lane) that provides north/south access between Salem and Christiansburg. The posted speed limit along this section of the roadway is 55 mph. Dow Hollow Road, State Route 647, is a major collector that provides access between West Main Street and Interstate 81. Dow Hollow Road is a four-lane, divided roadway between West Main Street and the Interstate 81 ramps and then tapers to a two-lane, undivided roadway to the north. The assumed speed on this roadway is 25 mph. Fallbrooke Drive, State Route 940, is a local road and the assumed speed on this roadway is 25 mph. The development will have access from Fallbrooke Drive. A cross-access connection may be provided to the existing Caverns Market site. The following intersections will be analyzed as part of this project:  West Main Street & Dow Hollow Road (unsignalized)  West Main Street & Fallbrooke Drive (unsignalized) The existing intersections will be analyzed to determine current functionality and level of service and determine the anticipated impacts of the proposed project. Level of service (LOS) for unsignalized intersections is evaluated on the basis of control delay per vehicle and the driver’s perception of those conditions. Control delay is the portion of Traffic Study 5 Caverns Market Hotel Development – Roanoke County, VA September 30, 2024 the total delay attributed to the control at the intersection. Table 1 depicts the LOS scale for unsignalized intersections, with corresponding control delay per vehicle, with LOS “A” representing the best operating conditions and LOS “F” representing the worst. Level of Service Criteria for Unsignalized Intersections Level Of Service Avg. Control Delay (Sec./Veh) A < 10 B > 10 – 15 C > 15 – 25 D > 25 – 35 E > 35 – 50 F > 50 Table 1: LOS Criteria for Unsignalized Intersections (HCM) This study was undertaken by Balzer and Associates, Inc. to:  determine the total number of vehicle trips generated by the potential development to be added to the adjacent street network;  determine the functionality of the unsignalized intersections under existing and buildout conditions;  and to analyze turn lane requirements at the proposed entrance to the site. Traffic Study 6 Caverns Market Hotel Development – Roanoke County, VA September 30, 2024 2. Analysis of Existing Conditions This property is currently vacant and has access available from Fallbrooke Drive. VDOT traffic count data is available for the existing roadways. This information is summarized below and provided in Appendix C. 2022 VDOT Traffic Count Data: West Main Street, Route 460: Fallbrooke Drive AADT = 8,901 vpd AADT = 1,328 vpd Directional Factor = 0.55 Directional Factor = 0.50 (assumed) K Factor = 0.107 K Factor = 0.10 (assumed) Dow Hollow Road, Route 647: AADT = 6,387 vpd Directional Factor = 0.59 K Factor = 0.091 In addition to the VDOT published traffic count data, intersection traffic count data was provided by VDOT for the existing intersections. The counts were performed on Wednesday, September 27, 2023 from 7:00 AM – 7:00 PM. The manual traffic count data is provided in Appendix C. Figure 1 graphically depicts the existing peak hour traffic volumes and Figure 2 shows the heavy vehicle percentages obtained from the counts. Peak hour factors were calculated for each approach based on the counts. The Synchro 11 software was then used to analyze the level of service and delays and the SimTraffic 11 software was used to analyze the queue lengths for existing weekday AM and PM peak hours. The existing levels of service, delays, and queue lengths are shown in Table 2. As shown in the table, the intersections functions at acceptable levels of service, with queue lengths that are contained within the available storage lengths. The Synchro 11 and SimTraffic 11 results are included in Appendix F.

Analysis of Future Conditions Without Development The proposed development is expected to be completed in the year 2026. Based on information provided by VDOT, a 0.5% background growth rate was applied to the existing traffic volumes along Route 460 and a 1.3% background growth rate was applied to the existing traffic volumes along Dow Hollow Road. The background traffic volumes with the growth rates applied are shown graphically in Figure 3. The Synchro 11 software was then used to analyze the level of service and delays and the SimTraffic 11 software was used to analyze the queue lengths for background weekday AM and PM peak hours. The background levels of service, delays, and queue lengths are shown in Table 3. As shown in the table, the intersections functions at acceptable levels of service, with queue lengths that are contained within the available storage lengths.

Trip Generation Trip generation for this study was based on a proposed hotel with 100 rooms as indicated in the table below. The policies and procedures found in the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation Manual, 11th Edition, were employed to determine the potential site generated traffic volumes for the proposed development in the AM and PM peak hours. Table 4 shows the projected traffic to be generated by this site. Land Use AM Peak Hour PM Peak Hour Weekday Proposed Development ITE Code Independent Variable Enter Exit Total Enter Exit Total Total Hotel 310 100 Rooms 24 19 43 24 22 46 660 Table 4: Site-Generated Traffic Although it is possible that this development will have some internal capture and/or pass-by trips, these are expected to be minor and have not been utilized for this analysis in order to provide a more conservative analysis. 5. Site Traffic Distribution and Assignment The distribution of potential site generated traffic was completed by observing the directional splits from the traffic counts and by applying engineering judgment based on knowledge of the proposed use, as well as the surrounding area. For this project, due to the proximity to Interstate 81, it was assumed that 80% of vehicles will enter from and exit toward Interstate 81. The remaining 20% are assumed to come from Route 460 and were assigned to this roadway accordingly as shown in Figure 4. Traffic Study 14 Caverns Market Hotel Development – Roanoke County, VA September 30, 2024 6. Analysis of Future Conditions With Development The buildout traffic was calculated by adding the background turning volumes (Figure 3) to the site-generated traffic volumes (Figure 4). The buildout traffic for the intersection is shown in Figure 5. The intersections were then modeled and evaluated using the Synchro and SimTraffic software. Table 5 provides a summary of the levels of service, delays, and queue lengths for the buildout condition. The Synchro 11 and SimTraffic 11 output can be found in Appendix F. As shown in Table 5, the intersection movements continue to function at acceptable levels of service, with relatively minor changes in delay and queue lengths from existing conditions. The maximum queue lengths are adequately contained within the available storage lengths. No improvements are warranted at the existing intersection as a result of the development.

Traffic Study 18 Caverns Market Hotel Development – Roanoke County, VA September 30, 2024 7. Turn Lane Requirements Turn lane requirements were analyzed for the Fallbrooke Drive entrance on West Main Street. The turn lane requirements were evaluated by following the procedures and methodologies found in the VDOT Road Design Manual, Volume I, Appendix F . Volumes are based on the buildout traffic volumes shown in Figure 5. The turn lane worksheets are included in Appendix E. Right-Turn Lane into Site from West Main Street AM Peak Hour Analysis: - 85 Vehicles per Hour Turning Right into site from West Main Street - Approach Volume = 85 + 291 = 376 VPH -- Right Turn lane Requirement, as per VDOT Road Design Manual, Appendix F: Taper Warranted (please see Appendix E). PM Peak Hour Analysis: - 69 Vehicles per Hour Turning Right into site from West Main Street - Approach Volume = 69 + 528 = 597 VPH -- Right Turn lane Requirement, as per VDOT Road Design Manual, Appendix F: Taper Warranted (please see Appendix E). Left-Turn Lane into Site from West Main Street AM Peak Hour Analysis: - 22 Vehicles per Hour Turning Left into site from West Main Street - Opposing Volume = 376 VPH -- Left Turn lane Requirement, as per VDOT Road Design Manual, Appendix F: 50’ Left Turn Lane Warranted (please see Appendix E). PM Peak Hour Analysis: - 21 Vehicles per Hour Turning Left into site from West Main Street - Opposing Volume = 597 VPH -- Left Turn lane Requirement, as per VDOT Road Design Manual, Appendix F: 50’ Left Turn Lane Warranted (please see Appendix E). Traffic Study 19 Caverns Market Hotel Development – Roanoke County, VA September 30, 2024 Turn lane requirements were analyzed for the hotel commercial entrances on Fallbrooke Drive. Turn lane requirements were only evaluated for the eastern hotel entrance as it is expected to have the highest volumes. The turn lane requirements were evaluated by following the procedures and methodologies found in the VDOT Road Design Manual, Volume I, Appendix F. Volumes are based on the buildout traffic volumes shown in Figure 5. The turn lane worksheets are included in Appendix E. Right-Turn Lane into Hotel Development from Fallbrooke Drive AM Peak Hour Analysis: - 28 Vehicles per Hour Turning Right into site from Fallbrooke Drive - Approach Volume = 32 VPH -- Right Turn lane Requirement, as per VDOT Road Design Manual, Appendix F: None Warranted (please see Appendix E). PM Peak Hour Analysis: - 27 Vehicles per Hour Turning Right into site from West Main Street - Approach Volume = 31 VPH -- Right Turn lane Requirement, as per VDOT Road Design Manual, Appendix F: None Warranted (please see Appendix E). Traffic Study 20 Caverns Market Hotel Development – Roanoke County, VA September 30, 2024 8. Conclusions Based on the data collected, the assumptions made, and the potential site generated traffic, the results of the analysis are:  the proposed project will increase traffic at the existing intersections that were analyzed for this project;  traffic volume increases at the unsignalized intersections will result in minor changes in delay and queue lengths;  the projected queue lengths will be contained within the existing turn lanes;  a right turn taper is warranted on Route 460 at Fallbroooke Drive. The existing additional southbound lane will continue to function as a right turn lane for this development and will fulfill this requirement.  a 50’ left turn lane is warranted on West Main Street. Based on the VDOT Road Design Manual and the existing speed limit of 55 mph, a 100’ turn lane and 200’ taper are required in this location. The existing northbound two-way left turn lane will fulfill this requirement.  The impacts of the proposed hotel development will be minor and do not warrant any additional improvements.

A hotel typically provides a swimming pool or another recreational facility such as a fitness room. All suites hotel (Land Use 311), business hotel (Land Use 312), motel (Land Use 320), and resort hotel (Land Use 330) are related uses. Additional Data Twenty-five studies provided information on occupancy rates at the time the studies were conducted. The average occupancy rate for these studies was approximately 82 percent. Some properties in this land use provide guest transportation services (e.g., airport shuttle, limousine service, golf course shuttle service) which may have an impact on the overall trip generation rates. The technical appendices provide supporting information on time-of-day distributions for this land use. The appendices can be accessed through either the ITETripGen web app or the trip generation resource page on the ITE website (https://www.ite.org/technical-resources/topics/trip- and-parking-generation/). The sites were surveyed in the 1980s, the 1990s, the 2000s, and the 2010s in California, District of Columbia, Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Minnesota, New York, Ontario (CAN), Pennsylvania, South Dakota, Texas, Vermont, Virginia, and Washington. For all lodging uses, it is important to collect data on occupied rooms as well as total rooms in order to accurately predict trip generation characteristics for the site. Trip generation at a hotel may be related to the presence of supporting facilities such as convention facilities, restaurants, meeting/banquet space, and retail facilities. Future data submissions should specify the presence of these amenities. Reporting the level of activity at the supporting facilities such as full, empty, partially active, number of people attending a meeting/banquet during observation may also be useful in further analysis of this land use.

CORE Glenvar Community Plan A Component of the Roanoke County Comprehensive Plan Adopted January 24, 2012 Glenvar Community Plan Plan Recommendations 8-2 industrial uses should be located south of Route 11/460. Low intensity or technology-based industrial uses are appropriate for either side of Route 11/460. Industrial development should also be sensitive to the natural environment and include a high degree of architectural and creative site design that is compatible with the rural and historic character of the community. The Principal Industrial designation does not preclude commercial uses from being developed. Route 11/460: Industrial uses should not be prominent along the corridor and should be buffered from the right-of-way. High intensity uses should be located south of Route 11/460. Low intensity or technology- based industrial uses are appropriate for either side of Route 11/460. Roanoke River/Floodplain: Development or expansion of industrial uses along the Roanoke River and in the floodplain should be limited. Appropriate uses include: • Manufacturing, storage, marketing and wholesaling of agricultural products; • Low intensity industrial uses and custom manufacturing; and • Warehousing and distribution. Poor Mountain Road: Uses should be limited to environmentally-sensitive, small manufacturing and low intensity industrial along the Roanoke River and railroad tracks. Center for Research and Technology/ Valley TechPark: These areas are the most appropriate for high-tech manufacturing operations, research and development companies and corporate headquarters. Uses, site design and aesthetics are regulated by each park’s respective covenants, master plan and/or conditions. Twine Hollow Road: Development or expansion of industrial uses along Twine Hollow Road should be limited to: • Manufacturing, storage, marketing and wholesaling of agricultural products; • Low intensity industrial uses and custom manufacturing; • Warehousing and distribution; and • Mining and resource extraction. 8.3.1.2 Development FLU Designation Development is a future land use designation where most new neighborhood development should occur. In the Glenvar Planning Area, Development should be consistent with the existing land use pattern. Appropriate uses include: • Conventional Residential – single-family attached and detached dwellings on conventional lots; • Cluster or Planned Residential – single-family developments with gross density similar to conventional subdivisions but houses are clustered to preserve open space or a critical environmental feature; and • Community Activity Centers – uses that serve neighboring residents including parks, schools, community clubs and meeting areas connected to residential areas by sidewalks, bikeways and/or greenways. 8.3.1.3 Core FLU Designation In the Glenvar Planning Area, the Core future land use designation is utilized around Interstate 81 off-ramps at exits 132 (Dow Hollow Road) and 137 (Wildwood Road). These areas serve as a gateway to both the Glenvar Community and Roanoke County. Development that enhances the rural and historic character of the area is encouraged. The Core designation is appropriate for higher intensity commercial development that includes hotels, restaurants, mixed use and highway-oriented retail uses; truck stops should be avoided. Restaurants and other businesses serving travelers should be distinctive in appearance and include a high degree of architectural and creative site design. Industrial uses should be redirected to land designated as Principal Industrial. WARNING: This Message Is From an External Sender, Use Caution!

Dear Mr. Grim, I am writing to you as a concerned citizen of Roanoke County about the plans to develop theproperty next to Dixie Caverns. I have lived in Roanoke County for approximately 58 years.My husband and I have owned our own home in Roanoke County for the past 37 years. I am acurrent member of the NSS (National Speleological Society) and of the Blue Ridge Grotto. Ilove caves and the critters that inhabit them. I have helped with many cave conservation projects in Dixie Caverns over the years as well asbeing a volunteer in the Dixie Caverns Haunted Cave when they had them. Our caving grottohas had a good relationship with the owners of the caverns over the years. This cave was thefirst cave I took my daughter to when she was a child. I am very concerned about the proposed rezoning and hotel plans for the Cavern, LLCproperties. This development will have a negative impact on Dixie Caverns and the propertysurrounding it. The current culvert/creek is at its limit and during heavy rains it frequentlyoverflows causing flooding on the property. The proposed construction of the hotel wouldcause an increased discharge of stormwater and parking lot runoff flowing directly into theculvert/creek on the Dixie Caverns property and exceeding its capacity. This would causeerosion, flooding and property damage to a local business, Dixie Caverns. Dixie Caverns has been an established business in Roanoke County for the past 100 years andis a significant Virginia cave. I understand progress and development, but it should not comeat the cost of destroying an established business.

Grim Cc:Jenna Fidler; Mary Sue Socky; Dave Socky; Dan McConnell; Wil Orndorff Subject:[EXTERNAL] - For the Roanoke County Planning Commission and Board of Supervisors re Petition of Cavern, LLC re Dixie Caverns Date:Sunday, March 23, 2025 4:28:25 PM Date: March 23, 2025 To: Nathan Grim, Planner, Roanoke County Planning Commission, ngrim@roanokecountyva.gov and the Roanoke County Board of Supervisors Re: The petition of Cavern, LLC to rezone approximately 1.286 acresR-1, Low Density Residential District, to C-2, High Intensity Commercial District, to construct a hotel located at 5709, 5755, and 5761 Fallbrooke Drive, Catawba Magisterial District. Dear Mr. Grim, I am Marian McConnell; owner (with my husband Dan) of the Murder Hole Cave in Catawba, VA; long-time member of the National Speleological [caving] Society; and long-time member (and current Treasurer) of the Blue Ridge Grotto (local caving club). We have owned Murder Hole and the property since 1994, and understand the importance of being stewards of a cave (and 34 acres of karst terrain) which are non-renewable resources and fragile, unique, and a famous landmark in Botetourt County. We have also spent countless hours volunteering and assisting the owners of Dixie Caverns to assist with exploration, documentation, conservation, and various events in the commercial cave (and also in New Dixie Cave also on their property) for 30 years. I am very concerned about the proposed rezoning and hotel plans for the Cavern, LLC properties. Development of this property as presented will negatively impact Cavern, LLC’s neighbors, especially Dixie Caverns Cave and the Campground next door. Here are some of my specific concerns: · A community culvert/creek runs under I-81 and runs the length of the Dixie Caverns campground, playground, and buildings. The culvert/creek is on Dixie Caverns property; it receives stormwater runoff from Twine Hollow Road, Dow Hollow Road, the four lanes of I- 81 around Exit 132, Dixie Caverns Campground, U.S. Rt. 460, and Caverns, LLC properties (Exxon and proposed hotel). All these properties drain into the Dixie Caverns culvert/creek, which crosses the Dixie Caverns (paved) driveway, under US Rt. 460 and empties into the Roanoke River. · The Dixie Caverns property is on a flood plain and is at lower elevation than neighboring properties. Except for the cave hill, the Dixie Caverns property is lower than its surrounding neighborhood. Everyone is uphill from the Dixie Caverns property · The current culvert/creek is at its limit. During heavy rains, the culvert overflows and the unpaved Campground is flooded. Dixie Caverns must install sandbags to prevent the flooding from the culvert/creek from entering the Dixie Caverns Gift Shop and Antique Mall buildings. · The proposed construction of the hotel would alter the environment and cause an increased discharge of stormwater and parking lot runoff flowing directly into the culvert/creek on the Dixie Caverns property and exceeding its capacity. · Construction of hotel would cause erosion, flooding, property damage with floodwaters possibly trapping campground residents, tourists, and school groups on the Dixie Caverns property. · Caverns LLC does not give any indication that they care about the concerns of the Dixie Caverns Campground owners. He has made no offer to work with his neighbors; or care if his properties cause flooding and land erosion to the Dixie Caverns property. His only solution: he persistently makes offers to buy them out. The Dixie Caverns owners are not interested in selling. ABOUT DIXIE CAVERNS, SALEM, VA · The Dixie Caverns area is a rural community with unique local charm. It is one of the last “wild places” left in Roanoke County. The Dixie Caverns area is geologically known as a karst area – limestone bedrock, caves, sinkholes, springs, underground drainage, and thin, rocky soils. · Numerous small caves were encountered and destroyed during the construction of Interstate I-81 in the 1960’s. · The Trompeter family has owned and managed the property for more than 100 years. · Dixie Caverns is a successful business and has contributed economically to Roanoke County, VA for decades. Dixie Caverns opened in 1923. The Dixie Caverns is a local, regional, and state landmark. It is a member of the National Caves Association (NCA), which supports show cave owners and operators. In the past 100 years, Dixie Caverns has had several couples get married under their world famous “Wedding Bell” formation in the cave. · Dixie Caverns is a significant Virginia cave. There are other caves in the Dixie Caverns hill, including the spectacular “New Dixie”. · Dixie Caverns is home to many species, including Troglobitic species of millipedes and springtails; Dixie Caverns salamander (Plethodon dixi) - most of range is limited to Roanoke County, primarily at the caverns; Allegheny woodrat (Neotoma magister) - in decline, and the increase in human activity due to a hotel will increase the number of raccoons, which will lead to the extirpation of woodrats on the mountain. We have been working hard to decrease the incidence of raccoon roundworm in raccoons on that mountain, and this will blow (Karen Powers’) project out of the water. · Bats (Tri-color bats, Big Brown bats, little brown bats) hibernate in Dixie Caverns. Many North American bat species are in decline; they are threatened due to habitat loss and White Nose Syndrome fungus. · The Dixie Caverns culvert/stream empties untreated stormwater into the upper Roanoke River, which is home to the Roanoke Log Perch, mussels, amphibians, and many species of fish, waterfowl, river otters and other wildlife. Construction and stormwater runoff from the hotel project will negatively impact these and other Roanoke River species. · Dixie Caverns supports cave conservation and has welcomed scientists and cavers from regional and national cave organizations to map, study, and preserve their cave. · In the 1990’s and early 2000’s, Dixie Caverns held a “Haunted Cave” event every October. It was an outstanding and horrifying success! Local cavers (including me and my husband) volunteered to haunt and raise money for cave conservation. PROPOSED CAHNGES TO Cavern, LLC’s HOTEL PLANS · Hotel should match or blend in with the rural character of the area. o They are planning for a 4-story hotel with pool. A current road will be widened and lengthened. o All land in the project seems developed to very edge of property overlooking adjoining Dixie Caverns Campground. o No provisions for neighbor privacy or viewshed. o No provision for increased stormwater volume in culvert. What would be better? Limit it to a 2- or 3-story hotel which will not tower over their neighbors. In addition, I suggest: · Hotel must be required to install a retention pond on its property to help with flooding problems in Dixie Caverns culvert/stream. · Hotel must be required to properly install their stormwater drainage culverts so erosion will not occur to the Dixie Caverns culvert/stream banks. (Caverns, LLC current drainage from the Exxon Station was improperly installed and never checked. It has caused stream bank erosion beside the Dixie Caverns grass playground and grass camping area.) · Hotel must be required to install Dark Sky Friendly Lighting on their property. Hotel lights should be directed AWAY from the Dixie Caverns property. · Better use of green space, unpaved land to create natural buffer between hotel and neighbor. Selective cutting, keeping a few old trees on site if possible. Use of landscaping to preserve neighbors’ privacy. · Hotel must be required to install privacy fencing between its property and neighbors. · Hotel must install security fencing between their property and neighbors. · Hotel must install marquee so it is not disruptive to the residents of Dixie Caverns Campground. Consider sign height and placement on property. NO towering light poles. · Hotel access road should be moved away from Dixie Caverns property, re-routed to give Dixie Caverns patrons privacy. · I understand there is a private family cemetery on Fallbrooke Drive; what will happen to cemetery residents? Related to the above, VDOT is planning to widen Interstate I-81 to three lanes, using the median to construct the new lanes. This construction will begin in late 2025. This project will increase stormwater runoff from the interstate to the Dixie Caverns culvert by 150%. (W. Orndorff, Virginia Cave Board meeting.) Any culvert modifications VDOT has calculated for their project do NOT include additional stormwater runoff from the proposed hotel. · The stormwater management system for the facility should be built in such a way as to handle large floods. Recommend design for 100-year storm minimum, and encourage to design for 500- year storm. The Board of Supervisors may be able to require this as a rezoning proffer. Please listen to and heed the concerns of the private and commercial residents of Roanoke County, and of the surrounding counties, and thousands of visitors from all over the USA who love and appreciate Dixie Caverns and all the wonderful resources of its unique and irreplaceable property and people.

My name is John E. Pearson, and I reside at 3045 McVitty Forest Drive, Unit 102, Cave Spring, VA 24018. I am quite knowledgeable about cave conservation and ground water issues. I am a Life Member of the National Speleological Society (NSS), Member 25731 RL, CO, FE. As such, I have been practicing cave conservation since 1983 and have been awarded the highest conservation award that the NSS can bestow, the Victor A. Schmidt Conservation Award. See https://caves.org/nss-awards/victor-a-schmidt-conservation-award/ . As such, I am fully cognizant of the potential of damage to ground water and karst from excessive rainwater runoff. I am opposed to the above-referenced Rezoning Permit due to the potential of damage to Dixie Caverns and the surrounding water table due to excessive rainwater runoff. In support of my opposition, I would like the following read into the record in support of my opposition. Currently Lot 5721, the lot with the Exxon and asphalt, is 2.4537 acres of which roughly half of it is developed. When that lot was developed, all that runoff from the asphalt was directed off the property onto the property owned by Dixie Caverns. I could find no easement that permitted this usage. See https://bit.ly/3FA3Ux3 for the relevant portion of the Roanoke County Tax records showing that drainage. Lot 5761 is 0.5916 acres Lot 5709 is 0.3915 acres Lot 5755 is 0.3490 acres. See https://bit.ly/3FFchrm for the layout of all four properties involved in this rezoning proposal. The available land for hotel development is approximately 2.3 acres. As part of my functions as a telecommunications consultant, I am highly trained on the usage of a compensating polar planimeter if you need an exact acreage. Generally, a 70-car parking lot would cover roughly one acre. In their plans, they state that they want to construct an 87-room hotel with 89 parking spaces. Obviously, they would need more than an acre for their proposal for parking. Which leads to the following inaccuracy. If they have a full hotel that only had cars, no tractor trailer trucks or towed campers, where are their employees going to park? Do they really think that only two people could possibly take care of an 87-room hotel. See Page 12 of their Land Use Application attached hereto for reference. A reasonable area for a 4-story building would be about the size of a football field, including end zones. Also well over an acre of land. This leaves them with potentially 0.25 acre of land that isn’t covered by parking or building. During a small rainstorm of say 0.25 inches over a greater than 2 acres of asphalt and building covered land, would yield 6,788.5 gallons of runoff. Roanoke County averages 40.1 inches of rain and 24.4 inches of snow a year. That’s well over 1 million gallons of runoff a year. Mathematically, it is 1,088,875 gallons. And all that runoff brings pollution into the ground water. You may ask where I came up with these calculations. I took a class for Virginia Naturalists at Banshee Reeks Nature Preserve in Loudoun County where I was taught how to calculate rainwater runoff. I also see no provision for complying with the Commonwealth of Virginia’s State Water Control Law, Chapter 3.1 (copy attached hereto for reference). The Purpose of this law is to protect existing high-quality waters, restore degraded waters, safeguard against pollution, promote water resource conservation and encourage wastewater reclamation. The key principles of this law require the following: Proper development, wise use, conservation and protection of water resources (includes groundwater). Water rights are limited to reasonable beneficial use and do not extend to waste or unreasonable use. The quality of state waters is affected by the quantity of water, and the Commonwealth aims to maintain flow conditions to protect instream uses and public water supplies. At a minimum this rezoning permit should be denied until Caverns LLC can show compliance with Commonwealth of Virginia laws and a proper water retention system for rainwater runoff.

Grim Subject:[EXTERNAL] - Petition of Cavern, LLC to rezone Date:Tuesday, March 25, 2025 4:58:57 PM Date: March 24, 2025 To: Nathan Grim, Planner, Roanoke County Planning Commission, ngrim@roanokecountyva.gov and the Roanoke County Board of Supervisors Re: The petition of Cavern, LLC to rezone approximately 1.286 acresR-1, Low Density Residential District, to C-2, High Intensity Commercial District, to construct a hotel located at 5709, 5755, and 5761 Fallbrooke Drive, Catawba Magisterial District. Dear Mr. Grim, My name is David Socky. I’ve lived in Roanoke County for over 30 years. I’ve been an active caver for over 50 years and have been heavily involved in the exploration, mapping, and conservation of caves and karst areas locally, all over the US, and internationally. I am currently the president of the Virginia Speleological Survey (VSS), Board member and secretary of the Cave Conservancy of the Virginias (CCV), Board member of the Cave Conservancy Foundation (CCF) and the West Virginia Association for Cave Studies (WVACS). I also served on the Virginia Cave Board for 5 years and still interact with them through the VSS. I’m a member and Fellow of the Cave Research Foundation (CRF). I am a life member and Fellow of the National Speleological Society (NSS). Etc, etc. The point is that I am qualified to speak to the conservation and development issues that are being raised by the proposed hotel next door to Dixie Caverns. Due to the conservation work I’ve done with Dixie Caverns; I became aware of plans for the building of a hotel. I am very concerned about the proposed rezoning and hotel plans for the Cavern, LLC properties. Development of this property as presented will negatively impact Cavern, LLC’s neighbors, especially Dixie Caverns Cave and the Campground next door. A culvert-creek runs under I-81 and then goes the length of the Dixie Caverns property, along their campground, playground, and buildings. The culvert-creek is on Dixie Caverns property and receives stormwater runoff from a number of roads, including the four lanes of I-81 around Exit 132 and Caverns, LLC properties which is the Exxon station and the proposed hotel. All these properties drain into the Dixie Caverns culvert-creek, which crosses the Dixie Caverns paved driveway, goes under US Rt. 460, and then empties into the Roanoke River. During heavy rains, the culvert overflows and the unpaved campground is flooded. Dixie Caverns has to install sandbags to keep the flood waters from entering the Dixie Caverns Gift Shop and Antique Mall buildings. The proposed construction of the hotel would cause the discharge of stormwater to increase. Parking lot runoff would flow directly into the culvert/creek on the Dixie Caverns property and exceed its capacity. Construction of the hotel would cause erosion and property damage. The increased flooding could possibly trap campground residents, tourists, and school groups on the Dixie Caverns property. Caverns LLC does not give any indication that they care about the concerns of the Dixie Caverns Campground owners and has made no offer to work with his neighbors. He does not seem to care if his properties cause flooding and land erosion to the Dixie Caverns property. His only solution is to persistently make offers to buy them out. The Dixie Caverns owners are not interested in selling. Also, VDOT is planning to widen Interstate I-81 to three lanes. This construction will begin in late 2025. This project will increase stormwater runoff from the interstate to the Dixie Caverns culvert by 150%. Any culvert modifications VDOT has calculated for their project do NOT include additional stormwater runoff from the proposed hotel. The Commonwealth of Virginia now has an approved Virginia Stormwater Management Handbook, Version 1.1. Appendix E: Site Assessment and Design Guidelines for Stormwater Management in Karst, discusses building in karst areas specifically. You can find it at https://www.deq.virginia.gov/our-programs/water/stormwater/stormwater- construction/handbooks. There is also the Commonwealth of Virginia’s State Water Control Law, Chapter 3.1. The purpose of this law is to protect existing high-quality waters, restore degraded waters, safeguard against pollution, promote water resource conservation and encourage wastewater reclamation. I see no provision for complying with the law. At a minimum this rezoning permit should be denied until Caverns LLC can show compliance with Commonwealth of Virginia laws and a proper water retention system for rainwater runoff. In conclusion, the Roanoke County Planning Committee and the Board of Supervisors should say NO to the rezoning of the Cavern, LLC properties and the construction of a hotel UNTIL the applicant has made appropriate changes to his proposed hotel plans.

Dear Mr. Grim, I reside in Virginia and have been exploring caves and their environments for the last 40 years. I serve on the board of the Cave Conservancy of the Virginias (CCV) and am Vice Chair of the Virginia Region (VAR), a subgroup of the National Speleological Society (NSS). Through my volunteer work, I have learned about important environmental issues surrounding development in karst areas which are characterized by limestone bedrock, caves, sinkholes, springs, underground drainage, and thin, rocky soils. I am very concerned about the proposed rezoning and hotel plans for the Cavern, LLC properties. Development of this property as presented has potential to negatively impact Dixie Caverns Cave and Campground next door. The Dixie Caverns area is geologically known as a kart area. At present: · A community culvert/creek runs under I-81 and runs the length of the Dixie Caverns campground, playground, and buildings. · Culvert/creek is on Dixie Caverns property; it receives stormwater runoff from Twine Hollow Road, Dow Hollow Road, the four lanes of I-81 around Exit 132, Dixie Caverns Campground, U.S. Rt. 460, and Caverns, LLC properties (Exxon and proposed hotel). o All these properties drain into the Dixie Caverns culvert/creek, which crosses the Dixie Caverns (paved) driveway, under US Rt. 460 and empties into the Roanoke River. · The Dixie Caverns property is on a flood plain and is at lower elevation than neighboring properties. Except for the cave hill, the Dixie Caverns property is lower than its surrounding neighborhood. Everyone is uphill from the Dixie Caverns property · The current culvert/creek is at its limit. During heavy rains, the culvert overflows and the unpaved Campground is flooded. Dixie Caverns must install sandbags to prevent the flooding from the culvert/creek from entering the Dixie Caverns Gift Shop and Antique Mall buildings. · The proposed construction of the hotel would alter the environment and cause an increased discharge of stormwater and parking lot runoff flowing directly into the culvert/creek on the Dixie Caverns property and exceeding its capacity. Why do we care about Dixie Caverns and Campground? · Dixie Caverns is a successful business and has contributed economically to Roanoke County, VA for decades. · The Dixie Cavers is a local, regional, and state landmark. It is a member of the National Caves Association (NCA), which supports show cave owners and operators. · Dixie Caverns is one of eight commercial cave in Virginia. · Dixie Caverns is home to many species, including; o Troglobitic species of millipedes and springtails o Dixie Caverns salamander (Plethodon dixi) - most of range is limited to Roanoke County, primarily at the caverns. o Allegheny woodrat (Neotoma magister) - in decline, and the increase in human activity due to a hotel will increase the number of raccoons.... which will lead to the extirpation of woodrats on the mountain. o Bats (Tri-color bats, Big Brown bats, little brown bats) hibernate in Dixie Caverns. o Many North American bat species are in decline; they are threatened due to habitat loss and White Nose Syndrome fungus. · The Dixie Caverns culvert/stream empties untreated stormwater into the upper Roanoke River, which is home to the Roanoke Log Perch, mussels, amphibians, and many species of fish, waterfowl, river otters and other wildlife. Construction and stormwater runoff from the hotel project will negatively impact these and other Roanoke River species. · Dixie Caverns supports cave conservation and has welcomed scientists and cavers from regional and national cave organizations to map, study, and preserve their cave. · In the 1990’s and early 2000’s, Dixie Caverns held a “Haunted Cave” event every October. It was an outstanding and horrifying success! Local cavers volunteered to haunt and raise money for cave conservation. · Each year Dixie Caverns welcomes hundreds of schoolchildren from all over Virginia and West Virginia so they can experience a show cave! The school and community groups also enjoy playing in the grass playground and visiting the Dixie shops This is just a snapshot of the value that Dixie Caverns brings to individuals and the community as a whole. Please reject the application submitted by Cavern, LLC to rezone and construct a four-story hotel next to Dixie Caverns and Campground. If the development moves forward, there has to be consideration of Design Guidelines for Stormwater management in Karst.

Dear Mr. Grim, I am Dan McConnell; owner (with my wife Marian) of the Murder Hole Cave in Catawba, VA; long-time member of the National Speleological [caving] Society; and long-time member (and current Treasurer) of the Blue Ridge Grotto (local caving club). We have owned Murder Hole and the property since 1994, and understand the importance of being stewards of a cave (and 34 acres of karst terrain) which are non-renewable resources and fragile, unique, and famous landmark in Botetourt County. We have also spent countless hours volunteering and assisting the owners of Dixie Caverns to assist with exploration, documentation, conservation, and various events in the commercial cave (and also in New Dixie Cave also on their property) for 30 years. I am very concerned about the proposed rezoning and hotel plans for the Cavern, LLC properties.

ABOUT DIXIE CAVERNS, SALEM, VA · The Dixie Caverns area is a rural community with unique local charm. It is one of the last “wild places” left in Roanoke County. The Dixie Caverns area is geologically known as a karst area – limestone bedrock, caves, sinkholes, springs, underground drainage, and thin, rocky soils. · Numerous small caves were encountered and destroyed during the construction of Interstate I-81 in the 1960’s. · The Trompeter family has owned and managed the property for more than 100 years. · Dixie Caverns is a successful business and has contributed economically to Roanoke County, VA for decades. Dixie Caverns opened in 1923. The Dixie Caverns is a local, regional, and state landmark. It is a member of the National Caves Association (NCA), which supports show cave owners and operators. In the past 100 years, Dixie Caverns has had several couples get married under their world famous “Wedding Bell” formation in the cave. · Dixie Caverns is a significant Virginia cave. There are other caves in the Dixie Caverns hill, including the spectacular “New Dixie”. · Dixie Caverns is home to many species, including Troglobitic species of millipedes and springtails; Dixie Caverns salamander (Plethodon dixi) - most of range is limited to Roanoke County, primarily at the caverns; Allegheny woodrat (Neotoma magister) - in decline, and the increase in human activity due to a hotel will increase the number of raccoons, which will lead to the extirpation of woodrats on the mountain. We have been working hard to decrease the incidence of raccoon roundworm in raccoons on that mountain, and this will blow (Karen Powers’) project out of the water. · Bats (Tri-color bats, Big Brown bats, little brown bats) hibernate in Dixie Caverns. Many North American bat species are in decline; they are threatened due to habitat loss and White Nose Syndrome fungus. · The Dixie Caverns culvert/stream empties untreated stormwater into the upper Roanoke River, which is home to the Roanoke Log Perch, mussels, amphibians, and many species of fish, waterfowl, river otters and other wildlife. Construction and stormwater runoff from the hotel project will negatively impact these and other Roanoke River species. · Dixie Caverns supports cave conservation and has welcomed scientists and cavers from regional and national cave organizations to map, study, and preserve their cave. · In the 1990’s and early 2000’s, Dixie Caverns held a “Haunted Cave” event every October. It was an outstanding and horrifying success! Local cavers (including me and my husband) volunteered to haunt and raise money for cave conservation. PROPOSED CAHNGES TO Cavern, LLC’s HOTEL PLANS · Hotel should match or blend in with the rural character of the area. o They are planning for a 4-story hotel with pool. A current road will be widened and lengthened. o All land in the project seems developed to very edge of property overlooking adjoining Dixie Caverns Campground. o No provisions for neighbor privacy or viewshed. o No provision for increased stormwater volume in culvert. What would be better? Limit it to a 2- or 3-story hotel which will not tower over their neighbors. In addition, I suggest: · Hotel must be required to install a retention pond on its property to help with flooding problems in Dixie Caverns culvert/stream. · Hotel must be required to properly install their stormwater drainage culverts so erosion will not occur to the Dixie Caverns culvert/stream banks. (Caverns, LLC current drainage from the Exxon Station was improperly installed and never checked. It has caused stream bank erosion beside the Dixie Caverns grass playground and grass camping area.) · Hotel must be required to install Dark Sky Friendly Lighting on their property. Hotel lights should be directed AWAY from the Dixie Caverns property. · Better use of green space, unpaved land to create natural buffer between hotel and neighbor. Selective cutting, keeping a few old trees on site if possible. Use of landscaping to preserve neighbors’ privacy. · Hotel must be required to install privacy fencing between its property and neighbors. · Hotel must install security fencing between their property and neighbors. · Hotel must install marquee so it is not disruptive to the residents of Dixie Caverns Campground. Consider sign height and placement on property. NO towering light poles. · Hotel access road should be moved away from Dixie Caverns property, re-routed to give Dixie Caverns patrons privacy. · I understand there is a private family cemetery on Fallbrooke Drive; what will happen to cemetery residents? Related to the above, VDOT is planning to widen Interstate I-81 to three lanes, using the median to construct the new lanes. This construction will begin in late 2025. This project will increase stormwater runoff from the interstate to the Dixie Caverns culvert by 150%. (W. Orndorff, Virginia Cave Board meeting.) Any culvert modifications VDOT has calculated for their project do NOT include additional stormwater runoff from the proposed hotel. · The stormwater management system for the facility should be built in such a way as to handle large floods. Recommend design for 100-year storm minimum, and encourage to design for 500-year storm. The Board of Supervisors may be able to require this as a rezoning proffer. Please listen to and heed the concerns of the private and commercial residents of Roanoke County, and of the surrounding counties, and thousands of visitors from all over the USA who love and appreciate Dixie Caverns and all the wonderful resources of its unique and irreplaceable property and people.

Dear Mr. Grim, Hi! I am Mary Sue Socky, and I have been a Roanoke County resident and property owner for 30+ years. I am a former science teacher and scout leader, band parent and volunteer. My background is in science; I am a cave explorer, conservationist, and regional guest speaker- my areas of expertise are karst, caves, and bats. I am currently an officer in the local caving club, the Blue Ridge Grotto (BRG) chapter of the National Speleological Society (NSS). I have been an NSS member for 40 years and I am a Fellow of the NSS. I am familiar with the Dixie Caverns/Wabun/Riverside area. As a lifelong Roanoke Valley resident, I have tubed the Roanoke River; I have hiked, ridge-walked and worked with nearby landowners concerning their land, their caves, and their groundwater resources. I have helped develop management plans for cave owners regarding the caves on their property. I have worked with biologists to categorize and study the special creatures above and below ground in the Dixie Caverns area. The Dixie Caverns area in western Roanoke County is a rural community with unique local charm. It is one of the last “wild places” left in Roanoke County. The Dixie Caverns area is geologically known as a karst area – containing sedimentary limestone bedrock, caves, sinkholes, springs, underground drainage, natural bridges, and thin, rocky soils. Numerous small caves were encountered and destroyed during the construction of Interstate I-81 in the 1960’s. I have visited Dixie Caverns, Salem VA for the past 60 years – first as a tourist, and later as a volunteer at Dixie Caverns. It is a beautiful show cave! I have picked up gum wrappers along the cave trails, cleaned formations, and I have been one of the characters that made Dixie Caverns Haunted Cave come alive and be wildly successful during the 1990s and 2000s. Dixie Caverns a significant Virginia cave; is a well-known regional, state, and national landmark; it should be treasured and protected. Dixie Caverns and Campgrounds is a successful local business and contributes economically to Roanoke County, VA. Dixie Caverns opened to the public in 1923. The Trompeter family has owned and managed the property - cave and campground - for more than 100 years. Dixie Caverns is a local, regional, and state landmark. It is a member of the National Caves Association (NCA), which supports show cave owners and operators. Annually, Dixie Caverns welcomes thousands of schoolchildren from all over Virginia and West Virginia so they can experience a show cave! The school, church and community groups also enjoy playing in the grass playground and visiting the Dixie shops. The owners of Dixie Caverns support cave conservation and have welcomed scientists and cavers from regional and national cave organizations as well as the Virginia Department of Conservation and Recreation (DCR) to map, study, and preserve their cave. Dixie Caverns is an ‘active cave’; it is still dripping and growing formations, and is home to many species, including troglobitic (cave-adapted) species of millipedes and springtails, the Dixie salamander (Plethodon dixi), Allegheny woodrats (Neotoma magister), and several species of cave bats. Many of these species are in decline. Disturbance to their surface habitat may further threaten them. Caves are formed by water, and the Dixie Caverns property is located on a flood plain (the cavern is inside a hill). A storm culvert/stream that runs the length of the campground, along and through the Dixie Caverns and Campground property empties untreated stormwater into the Roanoke River. This storm culvert/stream also drains the communities along Twine Hollow Road, Dow Hollow Road, Interstate I-81, Dixie Caverns, US. Route 460, and properties belonging to Cavern, LLC. This storm culvert/stream is outdated (1970s?), and stormwater exceeds culvert capacity during floods or heavy rains. The stormwater floods the (unpaved) Dixie Caverns Campground and sometimes the paved parking lot. As commercialization, land development and construction occur there are more stormwater demands on this culvert. Stormwater runoff is increasing. Stormwater from the existing culvert/stream encroaches on the Dixie Caverns buildings and paved parking lot/driveway every time there is a lot of precipitation. Dixie Caverns owners and staff are currently having to install sandbags to protect their buildings from flooding on a regular basis. If the Dixie Caverns Gift Shop cannot open due to culvert flooding, then the Antique Mall, the Campground, and the Caverns cannot open; Dixie Caverns is deprived of business income. In addition, VDOT is planning on constructing additional lanes in the roadbed of I-81 from exit 128 through exit 137. Dixie Caverns is located downhill and south of the interchange of I-81, exit 132. This construction, paving of I-81 is estimated to increase runoff in the Dixie Caverns culvert by 150%. Construction to widen this section of I-81 is slated to begin in late 2025. And now, an additional major source of stormwater – the proposed rezoning of the properties owned by Cavern, LLC for a hotel. I am very concerned about the proposed rezoning and hotel plans for the Cavern, LLC properties adjacent and uphill from the Dixie Caverns property. Development of this property as presented will negatively impact Cavern, LLC’s neighbors, especially Dixie Caverns Cave and Campground next door. The applicant does not seem to care about his downhill neighbors’ flooding concerns and is not working with his neighbors in a positive manner toward a solution. The proposed hotel plans seem to have every inch of property developed, leaving very little undisturbed land to absorb rain and runoff. Developed land causes lots more storm runoff and sedimentation– thousands of gallons of runoff during every storm event. The Commonwealth of Virginia has an approved Virginia Stormwater Management Handbook, Version 1.1, effective July 1, 2024. Appendix E: Site Assessment and Design Guidelines for Stormwater Management in Karst, discusses building in karst (limestone) areas specifically. You can find it at https://www.deq.virginia.gov/our-programs/water/stormwater/stormwater- construction/handbooks Currently Planned: A four-story hotel, maybe a swimming pool. The proposed hotel would tower over its neighbor’s adjoining campground. Hotel should match or blend in with the rural character of the area. There seems to be very little greenspace or open space in the current plan. There are no provisions in the rezoning and hotel plans to protect the neighbor’s privacy or viewshed. There are no provisions to address the increased stormwater runoff volume from the proposed hotel property into the culvert on the Dixie Caverns property. A current gravel road, Fallbrooke Drive, will be widened, lengthened, and paved to access the proposed hotel from Rt. 460. Close to Fallbrooke Drive is a private family cemetery. Will road widening and construction disturb the graves??? I propose these items should be required for the rezoning of the Cavern, LLC property and proposed hotel: Applicant will install an adequate retention pond on its property to help with Applicant will properly install property stormwater drainage culverts so erosion will not occur to the Dixie Caverns culvert/stream banks. Caverns, LLC current drainage from the Exxon Station was improperly installed and never checked. It has caused stream bank erosion beside the Dixie Caverns grass playground and grass camping area, resulting in increased sedimentation into the nearby Roanoke River. Applicant must install Dark Sky Friendly Lighting on their property to protect the privacy of campground residents. Hotel lights will be directed AWAY from the Dixie Caverns property. There are permanent residents in the Dixie Campground. Their privacy must be respected. Better use of green space, unpaved land to create natural buffer between hotel and neighbor. Use of selective cutting, keeping a few old trees on site if possible. Use of landscaping to preserve neighbors’ privacy. Applicant must install privacy fencing between its property and neighbors. Applicant will install security fencing between their property and neighbors’ property. Applicant will place, install marquee so it is not disruptive to the residents of Dixie Caverns Campground. (consider sign height and placement on property.) NO towering light poles or signs “like a Wal-Mart parking lot.” Hotel access road should be moved away from Dixie Caverns property, re- routed to give Dixie Caverns patrons privacy. In conclusion, the Roanoke County Planning Committee and the Board of Supervisors should say NO to the rezoning of the Cavern, LLC properties and the construction of a hotel UNTIL the applicant has made appropriate changes to the proposed property rezoning and hotel plans. Thank you, Mary Sue Socky NSS 24206 FE Secretary, Blue Ridge Grotto of the NSS Mary Sue Socky 6572 Woodbrook Drive SW Roanoke, VA 24018 540-529-3954 sockymss@cox.net Mr. Grim, I write to you as a concerned citizen about the plans to develop property next to Dixie Caverns. This letter is in regards to petition of Cavern, LLC to rezone approximately 1.286 acres from R-1 to C-2, to construct a hotel located at 5709,5755, and 5761 Fallbrooke Drive, Catawba Magisterial District. I am a wildlife biologist who has been working in a positive manner with Jenna Fidler of Dixie Caverns and an adjacent landowner on the mountain. For the last several years, we have been studying a rare, declining species of packrat called the Allegheny woodrat (Neotoma magister). It is a Tier IV species of special concern throughout the Commonwealth's Wildlife Action Plan and is endangered or threatened further north in its range. The folks at Dixie have been a joy to work with, as we are trying to help not just woodrats but all mammalian species in the area afflicted by a disease that raccoons carry, called raccoon roundworm. It is lethal to the woodrats. This roundworm can affect humans too – and an increase in urbanization leads directly to an increased density of raccoons. An increase in raccoon density leads to a greater incidence of raccoon roundworm. This becomes a health hazard to us concerned citizens. The proposed hotel, with stormwater draining into Dixie Caverns culverts will have a negative impact on our native wildlife in so many ways. First, the density of raccoons will undoubtedly increase, leading to a higher incidence of raccoon roundworm. It’ll lead to the extirpation of native Allegheny woodrats in the area – and affect other mammalian species, too. Other animals that use the culvert and the property as a whole will be in greater decline. For example, an endemic species of salamander called the Dixie Caverns salamander (Plethodon dixi) will be negatively impacted by the polluted stormwater (and the simple increase in the water flow). This species is primarily limited to Roanoke County – and should be a source of pride for the county! Please choose not to approve this proposed land development. Dixie Caverns has been a thriving business and more recently an educational center for decades – my daughter’s class is even taking a field trip there in a couple weeks. To see it suffer due to adjacent landowners’ choices is just bad county management. As a former landowner in the Glenvar Heights area (up through 2021), I know how special that corner of the county is, and how you might deal it a devastating blow by approving this landuse change. The opinions expressed here are mine only, and do not reflect that of Radford University. But Dixie Caverns has been a source of pride in this county. Please help us keep it that way. Reach out of your have questions or concerns – happy to talk about the value of woodrats, salamanders, other cave fauna, and more.

Report Suspicious ‌ From:Meredith Hall Weberg To:Nathan A. Grim Cc:Jenna Fidler; Mary Sue and Dave Socky Subject:[EXTERNAL] - Proposed Hotel Next to Dixie Caverns Date:Monday, March 24, 2025 2:23:19 PM Hi there, Mr. Grim, This email is for the Roanoke County Planning Commission and Board of Supervisors. This email concerns the petition of Cavern, LLC to rezone approximately 1.286 acres from R-1 to C-2, to construct a hotel located at 5709,5755, and 5761 Fallbrooke Drive, Catawba Magisterial District. First, let me tell you a bit about myself and why this matter of a possible hotel being built next door to the Dixie Caverns property is important to me. I am a caver and love caves. I have done conservation work in Dixie Caverns over the years even though I no longer live in the Roanoke area. I am the chair of the Virginia Region (VAR), a subgroup of the National Speleological Society (NSS), the largest member organization devoted to the exploration, study, and conservation of caves in the world. It is in my capacity as VAR chair that I write. I am also the chair of the VAR Conservation Committee. I read the article in the Roanoke Times about the proposed 4-story hotel and possible swimming pool that the adjacent landowner wants to build. It does not appear that the plans include any, or very little, space to accommodate the extra rain runoff that this building would cause. Right now, to my understanding, the runoff goes into an old culvert on Dixie Caverns’ property and causes the ground to be “mushy” because during heavy rain, the culvert just isn’t large enough. I am NOT advocating a larger culvert! I am advocating that the Roanoke County Planners and Supervisors study this request carefully and reject the request to build the hotel, or, at the very least, perhaps limit it to three or even two stories. You all should already be concerned with stormwater runoff in this area with the impending widening of Interstate 81 from milepost 128.4 to milepost 137.1 in both the northbound and southbound lanes. I believe I-81’s runoff already goes to the area that would be affected by the construction of this hotel. If you did not know, the Commonwealth of Virginia now has an approved Virginia Stormwater Management Handbook, Version 1.1, effective July 1, 2024. Appendix E: Site Assessment and Design Guidelines for Stormwater , discusses building in karst (limestone) areas specifically. You can find it at https://www.deq.virginia.gov/our-programs/water/stormwater/stormwater- construction/handbooks. I really fear for the future of Dixie Caverns as a viable business if this hotel were to be built. The tours offered of this beautiful Virginia landmark are only part of the business that keeps tourists and their money coming to Roanoke County. The campground is very important to the business. If it’s continually damp and mushy, word will get out and no one will want to come camp. PLEASE consider rejecting the proposal to build the hotel on the property adjacent to Dixie Caverns. If you should approve the plans, PLEASE make sure that all stormwater management guidelines from the Handbook are followed.

J.2 AT A REGULAR MEETING OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF ROANOKE COUNTY, VIRGINIA HELD AT THE ROANOKE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION CENTER MEETING DATE: April 22, 2025 AGENDA ITEM: The petition of Sergei Larin to rezone approximately 0.7155 acre of land from AR, Agricultural/Residential District, to AV, Agricultural/Village Center District, and to obtain a special use permit to operate retail sales located in the 3600 block of Bradshaw Road, Catawba Magisterial District SUBMITTED BY: Philip Thompson Director of Planning APPROVED BY: Richard L. Caywood County Administrator ISSUE: Second reading and public hearing to rezone approximately 0.7155 acre of property from AR to AV and to obtain a special use permit for retail sales. BACKGROUND: The Roanoke County Zoning Ordinance defines retail sales as “sale or rental with incidental service of commonly used goods and merchandise for personal or household use but excludes those classified more specifically by these use type classifications.” Retail sales is a commercial use type which is only permitted in the AV, Agricultural/Village Center District, with an approved special use permit. Section 30-85-24.5(C) of the Roanoke County Code contains one use and design standard for retail sales uses in the AV, Agricultural/Village Center District: “retail sales shall not exceed three thousand (3,000) square feet in gross floor area.” The building proposed with this petition is approximately 1,800 square feet. DISCUSSION: The Planning Commission held a public hearing on this application on April 1, 2025. Page 2 of 2 Two (2) citizens spoke in opposition to the project during the public hearing. Their concerns included: the property's ability to be developed; what uses could go on the property if the business fails; and opposition to any retail or development in the area not related to farm or agricultural use. The Planning Commission discussed: the existing business; septic and drainfield issues; well and potable water; floodplain; surrounding land uses and zoning; and the project being consistent with the future land use designation of Village Center. The Planning Commission recommends approval of the rezoning from AR to AV, and recommends approval of the special use permit for retail sales. FISCAL IMPACT: There is no fiscal impact on this agenda item. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Board of Supervisors approve the second reading of an ordinance to rezone approximately 0.7155 acre from AR, Agricultural/Residential District, to AV, Agricultural/Village Center District, and to approve a special use permit for retail sales. STAFF REPORT Petitioner: Sergei Larin Request: To rezone approximately 0.7155 acre of land from AR, Agricultural/Residential District, to AV, Agricultural/Village Center District, and to obtain a special use Location: Tax Parcel: 3600 block of Bradshaw Road #015.02-04-12.01-0000 Proposed Proffers: None Sergei Larin is petitioning to rezone approximately 0.7155 acre of land from AR, Agricultural/Residential District, to AV, Agricultural/Village Center District, and to obtain a special use permit to operate retail sales located in the 3600 block on Bradshaw Road, Catawba Magisterial District. The proposed retail sales use is for a quilting supplies and service business. The Roanoke County 200 Plan indicates the future land use designation of this property as Village Center. Village Center is a future land use area which serves as the commercial and institutional focal point of surrounding rural residential and farming establishments. Here, the highest level of rural land use activities may occur. By nature, the majority of commercial and institutional activities in Village Center areas are designed, scaled and marketed to best serve the product and service needs of the residents from the surrounding rural areas. The proposed rezoning and special use permit are both consistent with the future land use designation of Village Center. 1. APPLICABLE REGULATIONS This proposal is for a retail sales use type. The Roanoke County Zoning Ordinance defines retail sales as “sale or rental with incidental service of commonly used goods and merchandise for personal or household use but excludes those classified more specifically by these use type classifications.” Retail sales is a commercial use type which is only permitted in the AV, Agricultural/Village Center District, with an approved special use permit. Section 30-85-24.5(C) contains one use and design standard for retail sales uses in the AV, Agricultural/Village Center District: “retail sales shall not exceed three thousand (3,000) square feet in gross floor area.” The building proposed with this petition is approximately 1,800 square feet. No buffer yards would be required as a result of this rezoning. Comprehensive site plan and building plan reviews would be required before development could occur. 2. ANALYSIS OF EXISTING CONDITIONS Background – The subject parcel is vacant. In the past, Mason Cove Church of the Brethren (located to the south of the property across Bradshaw Road) has used the parcel as overflow parking. Because of this, there is one gravel entrance to the property along with a worn gravel area. There was previously an additional entrance adjacent to 3608 Old Catawba Road, but it is no longer in use and is overgrown. the northwestern property line. This drop off is approximately 18 feet from the top of the bank to the creek. The property contains both the floodway and the 100-year floodplain, but these flood areas do not expand into the area of the proposed building. There is a mixture of both established vegetation as well as cleared open area with gravel and grass. The existing vegetation consists of mostly mature deciduous trees and shrubbery with a few evergreen trees. Agricultural/Residential. To the north, it adjoins a vacant wooded property also zoned AR, Agricultural/Residential. To the south, across Bradshaw Road, surrounding properties are zoned AV, Agricultural/Village Center District. These properties include Mason Cove Church of the Brethren and Watkins Market convenience store and gas station. Masons Cove Fire and Rescue Station #10 is located on Bradshaw Road approximately 0.4 mile to the west of the subject property, and Masons Cove Elementary School is located on Bradshaw Road approximately 0.48 mile to the southeast. Community Outreach – Approximately twenty-two (22) letters were mailed to adjoining property owners and tenants which contained the request, information about the subject parcel, instructions for how to submit comments and contact information for staff. At the time of this report, staff have received one call from an 3.ANALYSIS OF PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT Site Layout/Architecture – The submitted concept plan proposes a one-story metal building having approximately 1,800 square feet of floor area. The metal building would be approximately fourteen-feet tall. Concept renderings show two entrances on the “front” of the building facing Bradshaw Road with three windows, as well as a smaller entrance and windows on the side of the building adjacent to the proposed loading area. The well site and drain field area are indicated on the concept plan for the water and sewer service to the building. A ten-foot landscape buffer is indicated along the southern property line between the parking area and Bradshaw Road, as well as on the eastern property line adjacent to 3608 Old Catawba Road. The application states that regular business hours for public access would be limited from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. on weekdays with some exception for special events or appointments. the submitted concept plan indicates one paved entrance along the western portion of the frontage on Bradshaw Road. Six typical parking spaces are proposed along with one disabled parking space and one loading area space. The application states that the estimated traffic will not exceed nine vehicle trips per Agencies Comments: The following agencies provided comments on this application: Roanoke County Stormwater – The site plan indicates that the proposed structure is in FEMA designated Flood Zone X. Which means the proposed structure is in a non-regulated area. certificate for building approval. Therefore, the before and after construction lowest adjacent grade will need to be above Base Flood Elevation. The septic system is in Flood zone AE and special provisions are required. Sanitary systems shall be designed to minimize infiltration into the system and discharges from the system into floodwaters. Sanitary systems storage tanks shall be designed, constructed, installed, and anchored to resist at least 1.5 times the potential buoyant and other forces on an empty tank during design flood conditions. Tanks and piping shall be designed to resist local scour and erosion. Plan approval is subjected to providing this information Office of Building Safety – All construction shall meet the requirements of the Virginia Uniform Statewide Building Code. Western Virginia Water Authority – WVWA water and sewer is not available in this part of Roanoke County. Fire and Rescue – Fire and rescue does not object to the project, and it does not effect the services provided. Fire flow and access requirements will be addressed during the site plan review process. General Services – General Services does not see any issues and has no comments. VDOT – 1. A Land Use Permit will be required if a new entrance is needed from the VDOT right-of way or for the change in use of an existing entrance. 2. If any future modifications to existing entrances or installations of new entrances are planned, the VDOT Road Design Manual, Appendix F: Access Management Design Standards for Entrances and Intersections must be adhered to where applicable for commercial entrances. This includes, but is not limited to, entrance spacing and intersection sight distance. The intersection sight distance must be field verified, and measures taken to ensure the minimum required distances can be met. 3. VDOT will not issue an approval of the plans, or any necessary Land Use Permits until the locality approves this request. In addition, information regarding any changes to the existing drainage system should also be included for review. 4. CONFORMANCE WITH ROANOKE COUNTY COMMUNITY PLAN The Roanoke County 200 Plan indicates the future land use designation of this property as Village Center. Village Center is a future land use area which serves as the commercial and institutional focal point of surrounding rural residential and farming establishments. Here, the highest level of rural land use activities may occur. By nature, the majority of commercial and institutional activities in Village Center areas are designed, scaled and marketed to best serve the product and service needs of the residents from the surrounding rural areas. Appropriate land use types include agricultural production and services, convenience retail, eco-tourism, parks and outdoor recreation, residential, rural community centers, and rural highway retail. The proposed rezoning and special use permit are both consistent with the future land use designation of Village Center. 5.

Three pits were dug in the northeast corner of the property. Pits 1 and 3 contained grey/low chroma colors at 31 inches and 38 inches, respectively. Pit 2 contained fill soil, indicated by a buried A horiz*n, to 1l- inches. The avei{able area for a drainfield is restrictive due to the proximity to the creek, retaining walls, and compacted soil in a graveled driveway area. A well casing was fcund on the site next to t!:is ar.'ailable area. ln order to utili:e tl:e tract ?ar on-site sewage disposal, this wellrnust be abandoned and docurnented with the Roanoke County Health Department. lf the well is apprcpriat*ly;lha*derned, this ske rcrauld likely accomm*dat* an *n-sits sewage system and a new well. lt would require a minimum of TL-2 effluent and enhanced flowlpump designs. lf any questions arise cr further dccumentatisrl of this evaluation is requested, please contact me via email {ShenandoahT9@email.com} or phone {540"320-6671}.

When you nm your water in the sink, shower, tub, md toile! or washers, the waste water goes through the sewer pipes to the septic tank This tark has a special environmeat where bacteria break dourn the se$/age into awatery effluent. This effluent water then flows &om the tank by a solid pipe into a distjbution box made of either pre-cast colclete or plastic. The distribution bax has sevaal pors. These ports hev-e solid pipes *header lines" connected to them which will split up the effiuexrt evenly from the d-box to flow doumhill to latsal lines. These lateral lines are ly perpendicular to the headq lines. The lateral iines are perforated, and extend usually between 50 and 100 feet out &om the header lines, with anly 2-4 inches of drop dispersing the effiuent evenly in the soil for purification as it lxrcolates down through *re soil column- Things to avoid putting into the septic system: Thick toilet paper or wipes (can fiIl tarrk ta the point of needing a replaceme.ut tank). Tissues Papertowels Plastics, foils, latex, paper products, disposable diapers Feminine saoitary produets, wrappers (can clog pipesido not brbak down in tank, due to plastics) Cigarette butts Hairtrimmings Matches Dental floss Paint Medicines Lethrce, carrots" coffee grounds Grease Use househald cleaners such as bleach, disinfectants, aad drain and toilet bowl cleaner"s in moderation arld only in accordance with product tabels.

SEC. 30-36. - AV AGRICULTURAL/VILLAGE CENTER DISTRICT. Sec. 30-36-1. - Purpose. The purpose of the AV, agricultural/village center district is to establish areas which will serve as the focal point for cultural and commercial activity of the rural service areas of the county, as envisioned in the comprehensive plan land use category of the same name. The density recommended for these areas is intended to average between one (1) and three (3) units per acre. Small country stores, family restaurants, and similar small service and personal service businesses, in addition to public and institutional buildings such as schools, post offices and places of religious assembly, are commonly found at these crossroad locations. These areas bring a sense of community to the surrounding rural areas, with an emphasis on providing the essential goods and services to rural residents, but are not intended as employment destinations for urban residents. New development should therefore be carefully considered for its compatibility with the surrounding development and the purpose and intent of this district. Any expansion of these areas should be contiguous to existing village center areas to avoid leap-frog commercial development. Similarly additional development may warrant additional public services, such as community sewer and water systems. (Ord. No. 042799-11, §§ 1f., 2, 4-27-99; Ord.

Here, the highest level of rural land use activities may occur. By nature, the majority of commercial and institutional activities in Village Center areas are designed, scaled and marketed to best serve the product and service needs of the residents from the surrounding rural areas. Land Use Types Agricultural Production and Services - Services which support the surrounding agricultural community. Parks and Outdoor Recreation - Small-scale facilities that serve the rural neighborhoods or are used for community purposes. These recreation facilities should be linked to the residential areas by greenways, bike trails and pedestrian paths. Eco-tourism - Facilities that serve a niche market and are often outdoor, sports oriented. Designed in an environmentally sensitive way to protect the valuable natural resources of the rural areas. Residential - Development at relatively high rural densities, generally not exceeding 6 units per acre and including single-family and two-family housing. Rural Community Centers - Includes institutional uses such as schools, religious assembly facilities, clubs and meeting rooms that serve the needs of the surrounding rural village residents. Convenience Retail - Establishments that provide retail goods and services to the surrounding rural village residents. Rural Highway Retail - Small-scale, rural establishments that provide retail goods and services to the passing motorists. These uses should be clustered in a village design that complements the rural surroundings. Land Use Determinants Existing Land Use Pattern - Locations where very low density residential, institutional and limited agricultural uses have developed. Existing Zoning - Locations where rural residential and agricultural zoning have been established. Rural Residential Expansion Areas - Locations where small scale, very low density rural residential housing is desirable. Agricultural - Locations where existing agricultural uses and activities are present. Access - Locations served by an existing improved rural road and, to a lesser extent, rural arterial highways. Rural Sector - Locations outside the urban service area.

SUBMITTED BY: Philip Thompson Director of Planning APPROVED BY: Richard L. Caywood County Administrator ISSUE: Second reading and public hearing to rezone approximately 11.688 acres of property from commercial to multi-family residential. BACKGROUND: This proposed rezoning is for a residential development consisting of single-family detached, single-family attached, townhouses, and two-family dwellings. The Roanoke County Zoning Ordinance defines a single family dwelling as: “a site built or modular building designed for or used exclusively as one (1) dwelling unit for permanent occupancy,” and a single family attached as: “two (2) single family dwellings sharing a common wall area, each on its own individual lot.” Townhouses are defined as “a grouping of three (3) or more attached single family dwellings in a row in which each unit has its own front and rear access to the outside, no unit is located over another unit, and each unit is separated from any other unit by one (1) or more common walls.” Page 2 of 3 Two-family dwelling is defined as “the use of an individual lot for two (2) dwelling units which share at least one (1) common wall, each occupied by one (1) family.” Single-family detached, single-family attached, townhouses and two-family dwellings are a residential use allowed by-right in the R-3, Medium Density Multi-Family Residential District, subject to use and design standards located in Article IV of the Zoning Ordinance. DISCUSSION: The Planning Commission held a public hearing on this application on April 1, 2025. One (1) citizen spoke during the public hearing. The concerns/issues raised included: existing flooding problems on Florist Road; the density of the proposed development compared to the surrounding neighborhood; how the proposed alley would function for school buses, garbage trucks, fire trucks, and similar vehicles; and only having one access road into the development in case of emergency. The Planning Commission discussed: the total number of dwelling units; allowable residential uses; access; stormwater management; maintenance of the alley; sidewalks along Florist Road; surrounding land uses and zoning; and the future land use designation. The Planning Commission recommends approval of the rezoning from C -2S to R-3 with the following proffered conditions: . The maximum number of residential dwelling units to be built will not exceed 69 total units. 2. Residential dwelling unit types may include single-family detached, single- family attached, two-family dwellings, or townhouses. 3. The residential dwelling units shall be constructed in general conformance to the elevation examples for townhomes and duplexes provided by the applicant as part of the rezoning application, titled “Kensington Townhouses” dated 03/24/23, “Village Green 2D Render A2” dated 05/20/24, and “Village Green 2D Render A2b” dated 05/20/24. 4. The proposed development will be served by one new public entrance onto Florist Road. 5. No new private residential driveways will be constructed onto Florist Road. Page 3 of 3 6. The Owner will grant Roanoke County a sidewalk easement, 10 feet in width, along Florist Road, for the purpose of a future public sidewalk. Since the Planning Commission meeting, proffer condition #3 has been revised as follows: 3. All front elevations of the residential dwelling units shall have a combination of masonry finish and siding and all above ground foundations shall be faced with either siding or masonry. FISCAL IMPACT: There is no fiscal impact on this agenda item.

STAFF REPORT Petitioner: Roanoke Valley Holdings, LLC Request: To rezone approximately 11.688 acres from C-2S, High Intensity Commercial District with special use permit, to R-3, Medium Density Multi-Family Residential Location: Tax Parcels: 5627 and 5633 Williamson Road (portion) and two adjoining parcels along the 5300 and 5400 block of Florist Road #038.10-07-25.00-0000 (portion); 038.10-07-38.00-0000; 038.10-07-39.00-0000 Proposed Proffers: The maximum number of residential dwelling units to be built will not exceed 69 total units. The residential dwelling units shall be constructed in general conformance to the elevation examples for townhomes and duplexes provided by the applicant as part of the rezoning application, titled “Kensington Townhomes” dated 03/24/23, “Village Green 2D Render A2” dated 05/20/2024, and “Village Green 2D Render A2b” dated 05/20/24. Roanoke Valley Holdings, LLC is petitioning to rezone approximately 11.688 acres from C-2S, High Intensity Commercial District with special use permit, to R-3, Medium Density Multi-Family Residential District, located at 5627 and 5633 Williamson Road and along the 5300 and 5400 block of Florist Road, Hollins Magisterial District. The purpose of the rezoning is to develop a residential development with sixty-nine (69) dwelling units including single- family attached, townhouses, and two-family dwellings (duplexes). The Roanoke County 200 Plan indicates the future land use designation of this property as Core. Core is a future land use area where high intensity urban commercial and high-density residential developments are encouraged. Land uses within core areas may parallel the central business districts of Roanoke, Salem and Vinton. Core areas may also be appropriate for larger-scale highway-oriented retail uses and regionally based shopping facilities. Due to limited availability, areas designated as Core are not appropriate for tax-exempt facilities. Appropriate land use types include multi-family residential units up to 24 units per acre. The proposed rezoning is mostly consistent with the future land use designation of Core. 1. APPLICABLE REGULATIONS This proposed rezoning is for a residential development consisting of single-family attached, townhouses, and two-family dwellings. The Roanoke County Zoning Ordinance defines a single family dwelling as: “a site built or modular building designed for or used exclusively as one (1) dwelling unit for permanent occupancy,” and a single family attached as: “two (2) single family dwellings sharing a common wall area, each on its own individual lot.” Residential District, subject to use and design standards located in Section 30-82-13 of the Roanoke County Zoning Ordinance (attached with this report). Townhouses are defined as “a grouping of three (3) or more attached single family dwellings in a row in which each unit has its own front and rear access to the outside, no unit is located over another unit, and each unit is separated from any other unit by one (1) or more common walls.” Townhouses are a residential use type allowed by-right in the R-3, Medium Density Multi-Family Residential District, subject to use and design standards located in Section 30-82-14 of the Roanoke County Zoning Ordinance (attached with this report). Two-family dwelling is defined as “the use of an individual lot for two (2) dwelling units which share at least one (1) common wall, each occupied by one (1) family.” Two-family dwelling is a residential use type allowed by-right in the R-3, Medium Density Multi-Family Residential District, subject to use and design standards located in Section 30-82-15 of the Roanoke County Zoning Ordinance (attached with this report). The subject parcels adjoin single family residences located within the City of Roanoke. Section 30-92-3 (C) of the Roanoke County Zoning Ordinance states “When property lines abut an adjacent jurisdiction, the administrator shall determine the specific screening and buffering requirements along that property line(s) after consideration of the zoning designation and/or land use of the adjacent property. Requirements shall not exceed those that would be required for similarly situated/zoned property within the county.” A Type A buffer would be required at the southern property line where the proposed R-3, Medium Density Multi-Family Residential District, would adjoin the single-family residences in Roanoke City which are zoned R-7, Residential Single-Family. There are two options for Type A buffers: • Option One is a twenty-foot-wide buffer with every seventy-five feet consisting of one row of large deciduous trees (3), one row of large evergreen shrubs (12-14), and one row of large deciduous shrubs (16-18). • Option two is a fifteen-foot-wide buffer with six-foot tall screening and every seventy-five feet containing one row of small deciduous trees (5) and one row of large evergreen shrubs (12-14). 2. ANALYSIS OF EXISTING CONDITIONS Background – Two of the subject parcels (038.10-07-38.00-0000 and 038.10-07-39.00-0000) are vacant and undeveloped. One parcel, addressed 5627 and 5633 Williamson Road, has two existing metal commercial buildings located on it. In November of 2006, the property owner obtained a special use permit for a mini- warehouse facility on these parcels. This facility was never constructed, and the special use permit has since expired and is no longer valid. eastern and western property lines which adjoin Florist Road and the back of commercial properties fronting on Williamson Road. The topography of the parcels is mostly flat, but the site does experience an elevation gain of approximately twenty feet from the lowest points closer to Florist Road to the higher points closer to the existing commercial buildings adjacent to Williamson Road. of Roanoke (Bowling Green Subdivision). To the west, the properties adjoin commercial businesses fronting on Williamson Road which are zoned C-2, High Intensity Commercial District. To the north, the property directly adjoins commercial properties zoned C-2, High Intensity Commercial District, including Affordable Corporate Suites which is a hotel that rents rooms for short-term and long-term stays. To the east, located across Florist Road, are single family dwellings zoned R-1, Low Density Residential District. Brookside Park, Friendship Living Retirement Community, Frank’s Italian Restaurant, and Brookside Par 3 Golf Course are all located in the nearby vicinity. Community Outreach – Approximately 217 letters were mailed to adjoining property owners and tenants located in both Roanoke County and the City of Roanoke which contained the request, information about the subject parcel, instructions for how to submit comments and contact information for staff. At the time of this report, staff have received two calls with general questions about the petition. One email was also received which mentioned concerns regarding traffic, pedestrian safety, utilities and services availability for the development, and stormwater run-off. This letter also included the date, time, and location for the planned Community Meeting which was held March 20th at Mountain View Elementary School from 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. Roanoke County Planning staff and Transportation staff were in attendance as well as the applicant and representatives from the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT), Planning Commission, and Board of Supervisors. Three citizens attended the meeting and had questions and concerns about the density of the development, buffer 3.ANALYSIS OF PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT Site Layout/Architecture – The submitted concept plan shows the configuration of the proposed development. Sixty-nine (69) total units are shown which would occupy fifty-one lots. This shows six single family attached homes and thirty-six (36) two-family dwelling units on 18 lots which are located along the eastern and southern side of the development. Twenty-seven (27) townhouses are shown further “inside” the development to the west of the subject site. This concept plan is not included in the offered proffered conditions; however, the total number of units (69) is being proffered along with submitted elevations. Three example elevations were submitted. The first, titled “Kensington Townhouses,” shows two-story townhouses with a mixed façade of brick, shaker siding, board and batten type siding, and standard siding. The colors and materials are aesthetically cohesive but vary between adjoining units for a more designed finish. The second set of elevations are titled “Village Green 2D Render A2” and show a two-story design with gray is the same as the previous elevation but features a built-in garage. Access/Traffic Circulation – The concept plan indicates there will be one access into the development from Florist Road. Two cul-de-sacs are shown along with one branch turnaround. A twenty-foot-wide private alley is proposed in the development to serve as an access for the ten eastern-most units along Florist Road. These units would not have driveways on Florist Road but would instead be accessed by this private easement. No connections to Williamson Road are proposed at this time. An access management study was conducted for this petition, and it concluded that no tapers or turn lanes would be required for this Agencies Comments: The following agencies provided comments on this application: Building Safety – All construction shall meet the requirements of the Virginia Uniform Statewide Building Code. Fire and Rescue – Fire and rescue does not object to the project, and it does not effect the services we provide. Fire flow and access requirements will be addressed during the site plan review process. General Services – General Services does not see any issues and has no comments. Roanoke County Stormwater – Receiving channel from the stormwater management facility – The roadside ditch along Florist appears to be inadequate. History at this location has indicated that runoff flows into the travel way. The engineer is encouraged to look at this area in detail. Also, there may be point discharges along Williamson Road to consider in the design Roanoke County Transportation 1. Please include sidewalks along Florist Road and along the proposed public roadways in accordance with the Roanoke County 200 Plan: “Encourage sidewalk construction along public roads in conjunction with new and redevelopment activities in the urban/suburban area.” (Recommendations Chapter, page 10-5), 2. How many units will have one-car garages and where will they be located? How many parking spaces are anticipated in each driveway? What is the plan for on-street parking on the proposed public roadways and for guest parking, particularly for the units fronting Florist Road? 3. How will the proposed alley be maintained across 18 parcels? VDOT 1. A Land Use Permit will be required if a new entrance is needed from the VDOT right-of way or for the change in use of an existing entrance. 2. If any future modifications to existing entrances or installations of new entrances are planned, the VDOT Road Design Manual, Appendix F: Access Management Design Standards for Entrances and Intersections must be adhered to where applicable for commercial entrances. This includes, but is not limited to, entrance spacing and intersection sight distance. The intersection sight distance must be field verified, and measures taken to ensure the minimum required distances can be met. 3. Trip generation and turn lane warrant calculations will be required for this development during site plan review. locality approves this request. In addition, information regarding any changes to the existing drainage system should also be included for review. Western Virginia Water Authority • This development will require water and sewer extensions to serve this development and do not qualify for availability credits based on WVWA general rules and regulations. • Owner/Engineer has preliminarily discussed development plans with utilities and ensured available capacity. A capacity inquiry does not reserve capacity for the project. Capacity is not confirmed until plan approval by the locality or an agreement that reserves capacity. Capacity is granted if available and on a first come/first serve basis. • Projects having water and sewer abutting the parcel will require evaluation by an engineer about the feasibility of serving the planned units within the parcel. The WVWA will provide data about the abutting infrastructure and potential connections but will not conceptually design or suggest the layout inside the parcel. • 4. CONFORMANCE WITH ROANOKE COUNTY COMMUNITY PLAN The Roanoke County 200 Plan indicates the future land use designation of this property as Core. Core is a future land use area where high intensity urban commercial and high-density residential developments are encouraged. Land uses within core areas may parallel the central business districts of Roanoke, Salem and Vinton. Core areas may also be appropriate for larger-scale highway-oriented retail uses and regionally based shopping facilities. Due to limited availability, areas designated as Core are not appropriate for tax- exempt facilities. Appropriate land use types include multi-family residential units up to 24 units per acre. The proposed rezoning is mostly consistent with the future land use designation of Core. 5.

Signature of applicant Date 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 impos ed 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.

The total lot breakdown is 27 townhouse units and 21 duplexes (42 units) for a total of 69 proposed units. The total development is approximately 11.36 acres. The Roanoke County property is currently zoned C2S – High Intensity Commercial with a proposed rezoning to R3 – Medium Density Multi-family Residential. The project will be accessed via 1 new subdivision road entrance located on Florist Road. Entrance is assumed to receive 100% of the traffic for this analysis. Florist Road has a posted speed limit of 35mph. Sight Distance Florist Road: Intersection Sight Distance is based on Table 2-5 in Appendix F, Page F-50, SDL=390’ and SDR=390’. From the proposed entrances, the required sight distances can be met for both directions but may require sight distance easements from the proposed development’s property. Final design of the entrances shall confirm sight distances with field survey.

SEC. 30-45. - R-3 MEDIUM DENSITY MULTI-FAMILY RESIDENTIAL DISTRICT. Sec. 30-45-1. - Purpose. The purpose of the R-3, medium density multi-family residential district is to provide areas in the county within the urban service area where existing middle-high density residential development (six (6) to twelve (12) units per acre) has been established and land areas which generally appear to be appropriate for such development. This district is intended to coincide with the development and transition land use categories contained in the comprehensive plan. They are designated based on access to major streets, sewer and water, and schools with suitable capacity to accommodate development at the stated density, and where parcel sizes allow for well-planned residential development. The areas designated in this district are also intended to serve as a buffer between less intensive residential areas and more intensive office, commercial and industrial areas and districts. A variety of housing densities and styles is encouraged in order to permit a diversity and flexibility in design and layout. Additional standards are established to provide for amenities in higher density developments. (Ord. No. 042799-11, § 1f., 4-27-99; Ord. No. 042208-16, § 1, 4-22-08) Sec. 30-45-2. - Permitted Uses.

I was unable to attend the Community Meeting last week but as a nearby property owner wanted to share my concerns. I live at 5123 Hollyhock Road NW which is in Roanoke City and is within 1 mile of this proposed development. I have many concerns, let me list them here. 1 - The speed limit on Florist Rd was raised from 25mph to 35mph a few years back. There are a signiﬁcant number of driveways adjacent to this street as well as 4 intersections (Verndale, Bonhill, Vincent and Spring Beauty). There has never been any enforcement of the speed limit so accordingly people often exceed safe speeds, tailgate, and nearly hit you when you're turning onto these streets. There is no safe passage for pedestrians along the length of this road. With the neighboring nursing home, rehab and assisted living facilities, it is not unusual that Roanoke County and Roanoke City Fire Departments are responding to calls at Friendship Manor. Adding another road as suggested will add to the potential of accidents along this highly traﬃcked road. Additional to this is that vehicles are turning right onto Florist Road from Williamson Rd disregarding the signage and the diﬃcult turn. Also, not enforced. There is a restaurant on Williamson Road whose driveway has been reopened again to allow patrons to exit onto Florist Rd. Another collision potential. Lastly, consider there is a potential line of sight issue with the proposed new street. There is a rise in the Florist Road that may obscure oncoming traﬃc especially given the allowed 35 mph speed limit. I will also say that I am also a bicyclist and frequently use this road to get home, so I have the additional concern of impatient drivers along the road. There is already too much traﬃc on this road to add more cars. 2 - The surface streets between Florist and Williamson Rd are frequently used as a shortcut. The stop signs are merely a suggestion to drivers and there have been many, many near-miss collisions in the 23 years I've lived here. Those intersections while within the City of Roanoke will have increased traﬃc with the addition of 69 housing units. The impacted intersections are : - Vincent & Hazelridge - Curtis & Hazelridge - Curtis & Hildebrand Should this development be approved, I will begin a petition to have some of these roads terminate and the intersections removed to increase pedestrian and vehicular safety. With the two above concerns, I ask have there been any traﬃc load studies or traﬃc counts performed to determine if the road infrastructure can handle the additional cars (assuming one vehicle per housing unit)? 3 - My next concern has to do with utilities. It is not uncommon for our streets to lose power during even the most minor storms. The ice storms this past winter resulted in hours long outages. Has AEP been consulted to determine if the addition of 69 housing units is sustainable and/or have they done any preemptive work to determine why the outages continue to occur in this area when areas around are often unaﬀected by weather? 4 -My next concern has to do with the potential run-oﬀ and additional storm water that will drain into the neighborhood below by adding more impervious surface. There is already a signiﬁcant road ﬂooding issue just north of the intersection of Florist and Verndale when we have heavy rain. This is easily seen by the amount of mud and dirt that is left in the road. Most residents will tell you this has never been addressed over the years and is signiﬁcantly worse now than in the past. Additionally, Brookside Park and the intersection of Verndale and Orlando will have an increased risk of ﬂooding from Carvins Creek with the addition of the housing units and what appears to be two streets. Please consider this environmental impact of adding homes and streets. 5 -I will leave it to Roanoke County residents to question the availability of Fire/EMS services in this area, but as I understand Hollins and North Roanoke Fire Stations are experiencing high call volumes already. This will potentially add more to these already busy stations and delay response times. Thank you for taking time to read my concern. I welcome any questions you may have. I realize there's a housing issue in the area, but this seems to rather dense amount of housing for the size of the property in question.
