Caywood County Administrator ISSUE: Briefing for the Board of Supervisors regarding the Roanoke County Public Schools Proposed Fiscal Year 2026-2027 Budgets BACKGROUND: As part of the annual budget process, the Roanoke County Public Schools presents a balanced budget for consideration by the Board of Supervisors. This briefing provides an overview of the Roanoke County Public Schools Proposed Fiscal Year 2026 -2027 Budget. DISCUSSION: This time has been scheduled to provide the Board of Supervisors with a briefing on the Roanoke County Public Schools Proposed Fiscal Year 2026 -2027 Budget. FISCAL IMPACT: There is no fiscal impact associated with this briefing. The budget approval and appropriation of funds will occur at a later meeting. Page 2 of 2 STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Board of Supervisors receive information regarding the Roanoke County Public Schools Proposed Fiscal Year 2026 -2027 Operating Budget and Proposed Fiscal Year 2027-2036 Capital Improvement Program. Roanoke County Public Schools 2026-2027 Annual Budget Adopted by Roanoke County School Board March 31, 2026 During the March 31, 2026 School Board Meeting, the Roanoke County School Board received the following report on the Annual Budget for 2026-2 027 and voted to approve the 2026-2027 Annual Budget. Background The FY2026–2027 budget was developed through a series of work sessions focused on aligning available resources with the division’s operational needs and long-term financial sustainability. Early discussions centered on replacement planning and establishing a clear understanding of projected revenues, including state and local funding updates. As we progressed through the planning stages, the School Board reviewed key cost drivers, with particular emphasis on employee compensation and rising health insurance costs. Updated revenue projections and expenditure requirements were incorporated throughout the process to ensure the budgets were balanced and responsive to changing assumptions. A public hearing was held to provide the community with an opportunity to offer input prior to finalizing the proposed budget. Priority List Throughout the budget development process, a priority list was used to evaluate potential additions and reductions in a structured and transparent manner. The priority list served as a decision-making tool to help the School Board weigh competing needs against available funding. Items on the priority list included compensation adjustments, operational needs, and planned investments such as textbook adoption and equipment replacement. As revenue constraints became clearer, the list was refined to identify items that could be deferred, reduced, or removed to maintain a balanced budget. This approach allowed the School Board to make informed decisions by clearly understanding the financial impact of each option and the trade-offs required. The final proposed budget reflects those priorities that best support the division’s core instructional mission while maintaining fiscal responsibility. Roanoke County Public Schools 2026-2027 Annual Budget Adopted by Roanoke County School Board March 31, 2026 The priorities result in the following changes and final budget for 2026-2027. Funds 2026 2027 Change I would like to express my sincere appreciation to the Finance team, our Directors, Dr. Nicely, and Dr. Soltis for their collaboration and support throughout this budget. Their collective efforts were instrumental in developing a thoughtful and balanced budget, and I am truly grateful for their partnership.

Caywood County Administrator ISSUE: Amendment of Chapter 2 of the Roanoke County Code to include a new Article VIII - Disaster and Emergency Management BACKGROUND: As required by law, the Board adopted an Emergency Operations Plan (“EOP”) in July 2023, which includes an emergency management organizational structure with associated duties and responsibilities. However, the EOP is not activated until there is an official declaration of a state of emergency, and until that official declaration, the organizational structure and duties detailed in the EOP are not explicitly in place. DISCUSSION: By adding this proposed Disaster and Emergency Management Article to Chapter 2 of the County Code, the organizational structure and duties articulated in the EOP will be permanently implemented. In addition, the new Article will allow for planning and some emergency management actions to be taken before a state of emergency is declared, as early as when a “disaster threatens.” This Article will thus enhance the County’s ability to prepare for and react to emergency situations. FISCAL IMPACT: Page 2 of 2 There is no fiscal impact associated with this action.

Please answer the following questions as thoroughly as possible. Use additional space if necessary. JUSTIFICATION FOR REZONING, SPECIAL USE PERMIT WAIVER OR COMP PLAN (15.2-2232) REVIEW REQUESTS Please explain how the request furthers the purposes of the Roanoke County Ordinance as well as the purpose found at the beginning of the applicable zoning district classification in the Zoning Ordinance. Please explain how the project conforms to the general guidelines and policies contained in the Roanoke County Community Plan. Please describe the impact(s) of the request on the property itself, the adjoining properties, and the surrounding area, as well as the impacts on public services and facilities, including water/sewer, roads, schools, parks/recreation and fire and rescue. No major change to the property would take place outside of location of minimal sheds/stable structures and fencing. There is no impact on public services, including water/sewer, roads, schools, parks/recreation, and or fire and rescue. Michelle Ellison We are requesting to rezone our property from residential to agricultural. This rezoning will be more in line with the immediate community and long term preservation of the areas historically agricultural and rural land use. This will ensure that the properties in the area remain spaced out providing ample space for forestry and open land preservation. This zoning is also more in character with the property and surrounding neighborhood. Our intent upon purchasing a home in rural Roanoke and this property in particular was to provide preservation to a historical home and area while providing an open and diverse space for our children to develop skills and characteristics not provided to them in todays standard society. Our purchase of this 100+ year old home has already provided beautification to the area. We intend to continue to nurture and develop the land, bringing back more character and historical use to the property. Historical use of the land has included goats and chickens. Future plans are to use a portion of the land for orchards and crop and floral growth. Create a mini farm for our growing children with chickens, a horse barn, a small amount of sheep and goats. The land provides ample space for grazing through the forested acres. Lands surrounding the property are already in use for agricultural purposes and this continued preservation of this land will keep in line with the surrounding character and charm of the Mount Pleasant area. As the property's unique terrain and power line path does not align with development of additional homes, this does not impact future development on the land. 6 ALL APPLICANTS a.

Page 1 of 2 ACTION NO. ITEM NO. N.1 AT A REGULAR MEETING OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF ROANOKE COUNTY, VIRGINIA HELD AT THE ROANOKE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION CENTER MEETING DATE: April 28, 2026 AGENDA ITEM: The petition of Old Orchard Farm, LLC, to rezone approximately 250 acres from R-1, Low Density Residential District, and R-2, Medium Density Residential District, to AR, Agricultural/Residential District, located at 7015 and 7131 Old Mountain Road, Hollins Magisterial District. SUBMITTED BY: Philip Thompson Director of Planning APPROVED BY: Richard L. Caywood County Administrator ISSUE: Agenda item for public hearing and second reading of an ordinance to rezone approximately 250 acres from residential to agricultural. BACKGROUND: The Roanoke County Zoning Ordinance defines agriculture as “[t]he use of land for the production of food and fiber, including farming, dairying, pasturage, agriculture, horticulture, viticulture, and animal and poultry husbandry. A garden and residential chicken keeping, accessory to a residence, shall not be considered agriculture.” The Roanoke County Zoning Ordinance defines a commercial stable as “[t]he boarding, breeding or raising of horses or ponies not owned by the owner or occupant of the property or riding of horses by other than the owner or occupant of the property and their non-paying guests. Included in this definition are riding academies.” The Roanoke County Zoning Ordinance defines agritourism as “[a]ny activity carried out on a farm or ranch that allows members of the general public, for recreational, entertainment, or educational purposes, to view or enjoy rural activities, including farming, wineries, ranching, historical, cultural, harvest -your-own activities, or natural Page 2 of 2 activities and attractions. An activity is an agritourism activity whether or not the participant paid to participate in the activity.” Agriculture, commercial stables, and agritourism are permitted by -right in the AR, Agricultural/Residential District. DISCUSSION: The Planning Commission held a public hearing on this petition on April 6, 2026. Two citizens spoke in support of the rezoning request during the public hearing. They stated: that the Ellermans have enhanced the property since purchasing it; there were several concerns by neighbors of a residential development on this site and there are already many subdivisions in the area; supports keeping the property in its natural state; neighbors had a lot of anxiety when the property was for sale and were against a residential development on the property; neighbors are happy with what has been done since the Ellermans purchased the property and are supportive of the rezoning and keeping the property agricultural. The Planning Commission discussed: the properties' rural setting; the historic agricultural uses on the property; the proposed uses by the applicant; community support for the project and rezoning; topography of the site; properties are rated good (Tier 3) in the draft Housing Study; housing needs in the County; surrounding zoning and land uses; and future land use designations. The Planning Commission voted to recommend approval to rezone approximately 250 acres from R-1 and R-2 to AR. FISCAL IMPACT: There is no fiscal impact associated with this agenda item. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Board of Supervisors approve the second reading of an ordinance to rezone approximately 250 acres from R-1, Low Density Residential District, and R-2, Medium Density Residential District, to AR, Agricultural/Residential District. STAFF REPORT Petitioner: Old Orchard Farm, LLC Request: Rezone approximately 250 acres from R-1, Low Density Residential District (207 acres), and R-2, Medium Density Residential District (43 acres), to AR, Location: Tax Parcel: 7131 Old Mountain Road, 7015 Old Mountain Road, 0 Old Mountain Road, 0 Old Mountain Road, 0 Old Mountain Road, 0 Old Mountain Road, and 0 Williamson Road # 028.03-01-26.00-0000, # 028.03-01-25.00-0000, # 028.03-01-23.00-0000, # 028.03-01- 22.00-0000, # 028.03-01-24.00-0000, # 039.01-01-46.00-0000, and # 028.00-01-07.00- 0000 Proposed Proffered Conditions None Old Orchard Farm, LLC is petitioning to rezone approximately 250 acres from R-1, Low Density Residential District (207 acres), and R-2, Medium Density Residential District (43 acres), to AR, Agricultural/Residential District to expand the existing underlying agricultural uses on the property. The Roanoke County 200 Plan indicates the future land use designation of the eastern portion of the subject property that directly abuts Read Mountain Preserve, approximately 32% of the property, as Conservation. Conservation is a future land use area of environmental sensitivity due to topography (greater than 33%), existence of unique land characteristics, conservation/open space/greenway easements, soil types or location with respect to other State or Federally preserved lands. Typical resources would include wetlands, ridgelines, mountainsides, scenic views from the Blue Ridge Parkway and Appalachian Trail, identified greenway corridors, productive agricultural lands, historical and cultural resources and threatened or endangered species habitats. The proposed rezoning is consistent with the Conservation future land use designation. The Roanoke County 200 Plan indicates the future land use designation of the center portion and the southwestern portion of the subject, approximately 44% of the property, as Development. Development is a future land use area where most new neighborhood development will occur, including large-scale planned developments which mix residential with retail and office uses. Innovation in housing design and environmental sensitivity in site development is a key objective. Clustered developments are encouraged as is the use of greenways and bike and pedestrian trails. Since conventional residential and cluster residential are allowed in AR, the proposed rezoning would be consistent with the Development future land use designation; however, the proposed uses indicated by the applicant would not be consistent with the Development future land use designation. The Roanoke County 200 Plan indicates the future land use designation of the northwestern portion of the subject property along Old Mountain Road, approximately 24% of the property, as Principal Industrial. Principal Industrial is a future land use area where a variety of industry types are encouraged to locate. Principal Industrial areas are existing and planned regional employment centers and are distributed throughout the county, convenient to major residential areas and suitable highway access. Due to limited availability, areas designated as Principal Industrial future land use designation. 1. APPLICABLE REGULATIONS The Roanoke County Zoning Ordinance defines agriculture as “The use of land for the production of food and fiber, including farming, dairying, pasturage, agriculture, horticulture, viticulture, and animal and poultry husbandry. A garden and residential chicken keeping, accessory to a residence, shall not be considered agriculture.” The Roanoke County Zoning Ordinance defines a commercial stable as “The boarding, breeding or raising of horses or ponies not owned by the owner or occupant of the property or riding of horses by other than the owner or occupant of the property and their non-paying guests. Included in this definition are riding academies.” The Roanoke County Zoning Ordinance defines agritourism as “Any activity carried out on a farm or ranch that allows members of the general public, for recreational, entertainment, or educational purposes, to view or enjoy rural activities, including farming, wineries, ranching, historical, cultural, harvest-your-own activities, or natural activities and attractions. An activity is an agritourism activity whether or not the participant paid to participate in the activity.” Agriculture, commercial stables, and agritourism are permitted by-right in the AR, Agricultural/Residential District. All development and use of the property must be in conformance with Section 30-34 (AR development standards) of the Roanoke County Zoning Ordinance. Section 30-81-1 of the Roanoke County Zoning Ordinance provides use and design standards for agriculture (standards attached). Section 30-81-6 of the Roanoke County Zoning Ordinance provides use and design standards for commercial stables (standards attached). Section 30-81-1.5 of the Roanoke County Zoning Ordinance provides use and design standards for agritourism (standards attached). If the rezoning was approved, comprehensive site plan and building plan reviews would be required before any construction could take place. In the R-1, Low Density Residential zoning district single-family dwelling, attached, single-family dwelling, attached (cluster subdivision option), single-family dwelling, detached, single-family dwelling, detached (cluster subdivision option), and single-family dwelling, detached (zero lot line option) uses are all permitted. The minimum lot size for a lot with public water and sewer availability is 7,200 square feet with 60 feet of public road frontage. In the AR, Agricultural/Residential zoning district, single family dwelling, detached and single-family dwelling, attached (cluster subdivision option) are permitted uses including all of the same single-family dwelling, detached options that are permitted in R-1. In AR, the minimum lot size for a lot with public water and sewer availability is 25,000 square feet with 90 feet of public road frontage. Depending on the amount of open space conserved (25% to 45%), the allowable density for cluster subdivisions ranges 2. ANALYSIS OF EXISTING CONDITIONS Background – There are seven (7) parcels involved in this petition totaling approximately 250 acres. The applicant included news articles from 1939 in their application that identify the property as part of an orchard owned by Roanoke Orchard Company that had the third largest commercial crop in Virginia. Prior to being purchased by the current owner, these parcels were owned by the Bradshaw family and used for unoccupied residential structures on the property that were determined not to be structurally sound that have been removed by the current owners of the property. There were also several agricultural related accessory structures that have been removed. The agricultural use of the property has been continued by the current property owners. Since purchasing the property in 2023, the current property owner has constructed three (3) agricultural accessory structures in the northernmost area. Construction has begun of a new single-family dwelling in the northeastern area of the property and a horse barn towards the center of the parcel addressed 7015 Old Mountain Road. The agricultural use of the property has continued since the properties were used as an orchard. Prior to the 1992 comprehensive rezoning, six (6) of the parcels were zoned RE, Residential Estate District and one (1) of the parcels was zoned A-1, Agricultural District. The agricultural use of the parcels has not been discontinued for more than two (2) years; therefore, the agricultural use of the land is permitted to continue as a non-conforming use under Roanoke County Code section 30-23-2 (attached). The proposed rezoning would bring the current use of the property into compliance with the current standards of the Roanoke County Zoning Ordinance. The proposed rezoning would also allow for the expansion into other agricultural uses that the property owner has proposed in their application, including a commercial stable and the potential for agritourism. Road. The northernmost parcel addressed 7015 Old Mountain Road is mostly clear of trees and grassy in its western portion with a group of trees around the primary entrance. The existing entrance is located on the parcel addressed 7131 Old Mountain Road. This parcel is lined with trees on the northern and southern property lines and has scattered trees throughout. The property slopes upward to the east where the single- family dwelling is being constructed. There is approximately a 160-foot elevation change from Old Mountain Road to the single-family dwelling. To the east of the single-family dwelling, the property slopes steeply and is entirely wooded. The elevation change from the single-family dwelling to the eastern property line is approximately 280 feet. The topography on the southern half of the property is extreme. There is approximate a 300-foot elevation change from Old Mountain Road to the eastern property line on the southern portion of the property. The eastern and western portions of this property are primarily wooded with a clearer section in the middle. There are two drainage channels that come down from Read Mountain through the southern portion of the property that are shown on the concept plan. There are cleared pathways that lead around the property, many of which are not traversable in a vehicle. Road. Directly to the north of the subject property is Bellevue Gardens and Bellevue Estates, these subdivisions contain approximately 68 parcels and are zoned R-1, Low Density Residential District. Beyond Bellevue Gardens is Stonegate, a subdivision that is partially in Roanoke County and partially in Botetourt County. The jurisdictional line that separates Roanoke County and Botetourt County is approximately a quarter of a mile north of the subject property. Directly to the east of the subject property is Read Mountain Preserve. The portion of Read Mountain Preserve directly adjoining the property is zoned R-1, Low Density Residential District and the remainder of the preserve is zoned AG-3, Agriculture/Rural Preserve District. To the south of the subject properties are parcels zoned R-1, Low Density Residential District and R-2, Medium Density Residential District. There are a mix of larger and smaller lots that mostly contain single-family dwellings or are vacant. The jurisdictional line that separates Roanoke County and the City of Roanoke is approximately a quarter of a mile south of the subject property. To the west of the southern portion of the subject property are three (3) neighborhoods, Old Mountain Estates, Cedar Hill, and Burnette Heights. These parcels are zoned R-1, Low Density Residential District and R-2, Medium Density Residential District. Community Outreach – Approximately 99 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. This letter also included the date, time, and location for the planned community meeting which was held on Monday, March 16th at the Hollins Library from 5:00 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. Roanoke County Planning staff and the applicant were in attendance. Approximately twenty-nine (29) citizens attended. Three citizen comments were submitted, all in support of the proposed rezoning. 3.ANALYSIS OF PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT Site Layout/Architecture – The submitted concept plan shows the existing primary entrance off of Old Mountain Road and the secondary utility entrance. The existing agricultural structures are shown in the northeastern area of the property. The property owner is creating a garden in this area as well. The single- family dwelling that is currently under construction is shown toward the east of the property and the horse barn that is under construction is shown to the west of the single-family dwelling. The horse barn is permitted for personal use as a private stable under the existing zoning. The property owner is proposing boarding horses that do not belong to them in the barn which would make the horse barn a commercial stable and require the property to be agriculturally zoned, if this rezoning were approved, the AR, Agricultural/Residential zoning designation would allow for the commercial stable use. All active development of the property has been approved by Roanoke County and there is an Erosion and Sediment Control Plan that shows the development of the property. There is a pond directly west of the single-family dwelling. The property owner has indicated they may have a small orchard to the east of the horse barn. There are fenced in areas for the horses to the east and north of the horse barn. There is a powerline that runs through the two easternmost parcels from north to south. Access/Traffic Circulation – There are three (3) existing entrances to the site off of Old Mountain Road. The primary entrance is located on the parcel addressed 7131 Old Mountain Road. This entrance currently serves as a construction entrance and is gated when it is not in use. The applicant has indicated that no changes to this entrance are proposed, therefore, it will be sufficient to accommodate anticipated commercial and agricultural vehicle types including horse trailers and farm equipment. The gravel road that leads from this entrance provides access to the existing agricultural structures, the single-family dwelling, and the horse barn. There is a utility entrance to the south of the primary entrance, this entrance is gated and there are no proposed changes. There is a third access to the site for a utility easement that is not used Agencies Comments: The following agencies provided comments on this application: Fire and Rescue – Fire and Rescue does not object to this project, and it will not increase the services we provide. General Services – Do not see any issues and do not have comments. VDOT – We have reviewed the above-mentioned rezoning request. It appears from the information provided that allowing single family and farm use on this property will not adversely impact the VDOT right-of-way. Any future expansions or redevelopment of the parcel or alteration to the existing drive may require VDOT review, approval, and permitting. Transportation – 1. Please provide anticipated daily vehicle trips for proposed commercial agricultural uses. 2. Please show how existing and/or proposed entrances to the property from Old Mountain Road will accommodate the anticipated commercial and agricultural vehicle types (for example, trucks towing horse trailers, large farming equipment, etc.). 4. CONFORMANCE WITH ROANOKE COUNTY COMPREHENSIVE PLAN The Roanoke County 200 Plan indicates the future land use designation of the eastern portion of the subject property that directly abuts Read Mountain Preserve, approximately 32% of the property, as Conservation. Conservation is a future land use area of environmental sensitivity due to topography (greater than 33%), existence of unique land characteristics, conservation/open space/greenway easements, soil types or location with respect to other State or Federally preserved lands. Typical resources would include wetlands, ridgelines, mountainsides, scenic views from the Blue Ridge Parkway and Appalachian Trail, identified greenway corridors, productive agricultural lands, historical and cultural resources and threatened or endangered species habitats. The proposed rezoning is consistent with the Conservation future land use designation. The Roanoke County 200 Plan indicates the future land use designation of the center portion and the southwestern portion of the subject, approximately 44% of the property, as Development. Development is a future land use area where most new neighborhood development will occur, including large-scale planned developments which mix residential with retail and office uses. Innovation in housing design and environmental sensitivity in site development is a key objective. Clustered developments are encouraged as is the use of greenways and bike and pedestrian trails. Since conventional residential and cluster residential are allowed in AR, the proposed rezoning would be consistent with the Development future land use designation; however, the proposed uses indicated by the applicant would not be consistent with the Development future land use designation. The Roanoke County 200 Plan indicates the future land use designation of the northwestern portion of the subject property along Old Mountain Road, approximately 24% of the property, as Principal Industrial. Principal Industrial is a future land use area where a variety of industry types are encouraged to locate. Principal Industrial areas are existing and planned regional employment centers and are distributed throughout the county, convenient to major residential areas and suitable highway access. Due to limited availability, areas designated as Principal Industrial are not appropriate for tax-exempt facilities. The proposed rezoning is not consistent with the Principal Industrial future land use designation. 5. STAFF CONCLUSIONS Old Orchard Farm, LLC is petitioning to rezone approximately 250 acres from R-1, Low Density Residential District (207 acres), and R-2, Medium Density Residential District (43 acres), to AR, Agricultural/Residential District to expand the existing underlying agricultural use. The Roanoke County 200 Plan indicates the future land use designation of approximately 32% of the subject property as Conservation. The proposed rezoning is consistent with the Conservation future land use designation. The Roanoke County 200 Plan indicates the future land use designation of approximately 44% of the subject property as Development. Since conventional residential and cluster residential are allowed in AR, the proposed rezoning would be consistent with the Development future land use designation; however, the proposed uses indicated by the applicant would not be consistent with the Development future land use designation. The Roanoke County 200 Plan indicates the future land use designation of approximately 24% of the subject property as Principal Industrial. The proposed rezoning is not consistent with the Principal Industrial future land use designation.

The change of zoning designation for the Property is consistent with the intent and purpose behind the AR zoning district, fulfills the values of the Hollins Community Planning Area, and reduces the demand on County resources as compared to development of the land consistent with its current designation. Description of Past, Current, and Planned Land Uses In 1939 the Property was owned by the Roanoke Orchard Company. The September 27, 1939 edition of the Roanoke World-News described the land as follows: Somnolent under a hot September sun, the great orchard sprawls over its north- sloping hills. Across the valley, dreamy in the autumnal haze, the Appalachian mountains stand out in blue relief. The scene is one of peace. But it is not one of inactivity. For this is apple picking time in Virginia, as the State’s third largest commercial crop reaches its harvest peak. “Harvesting of Apples, State’s Third Largest Commercial Crop, in Full Swing in this Area,” The Roanoke World-News, September 27, 1939. The article goes on to paint a picture of a vibrant orchard operation, of wagons rolling along farm lanes, moving apples picked by 35 men and women from 5,000 fruit trees to produce between 2,000 and 3,000 bushels of fruit packed per day. Id. Ads from the same paper list apples for sale from the Property as early as 1923, and research shows that the Property held agricultural uses pre-dating the Civil War. Even after the end of the Roanoke Orchard Company’s apple production on the Property, the land has been used for agricultural purposes, including the raising and grazing of cattle by the Andrews and Bradshaw families. We purchased the Property in 2023 with the dream of maintaining this unique bit of land in the way it has been used for generations. In a growing and vibrant urban and suburban community, rural land in such close proximity to an urban center is unusual and special. We care deeply for the heritage of this region, our community, and the Property in particular, and want to ensure its continuation, even if only in this small part. It is our intention to make our home on the Property and to maintain the land in a combination of pasture and forest. Our home is currently under construction, as is a horse barn and pasture, along with hoop houses for year-round vegetable growing. While we could never replicate what once existed with the Roanoke Orchard Company, it is part of our long-term dream to restore at least a small part of the land to apple growing, as a nod to the history of this place. While the current agricultural uses of the land are permissible as pre-existing non- conforming uses, we seek rezoning to allow for the future possibility of certain commercial agricultural uses that would not be permitted under current R-1/-2 zoning. These uses include, but are not limited to commercial stabling of horses (boarding and lessons), fruit and vegetable production and sale, and potential agri-tourism uses or similar events. Rezoning Application Questions and Responses 1. Please explain how the request furthers the purposes of the Roanoke County Ordinance as well as the purpose found at the beginning of the applicable zoning district classification in the Zoning Ordinance. The Roanoke County Zoning Ordinance characterizes the Agricultural Residential (“AR”) zoning district and sets forth its purpose as follows: These areas are generally characterized by very low density residential and institutional uses mixed with smaller parcels that have historically contained agricultural uses, forest land and open space outside the urban service area. These areas provide an opportunity for rural living in convenient proximity to urban services and employment. Agricultural uses should be encouraged to be maintained. Over time, however, these areas are expected to become increasingly residential in character, with residential development becoming the dominant use over agricultural and more rural type uses. The purpose of this district, consistent with the Rural Village land use category in the comprehensive plan, is to maintain these areas essentially in their rural state, consistent with the level of services anticipated by the county. These areas are generally suitable for low density residential development and other compatible land uses. Roanoke County Zoning Ordinance, Sec. 30-34-1(A). The Hollins District of Roanoke County is growing in population and consequently both residential and commercial development. While vibrant residential and commercial centers benefit the community, the County has clearly expressed an intention to maintain certain areas with present and past rural character in that state. Preservation of the Property as rural, agricultural land, and rezoning it to AR to allow for further uses in that tradition, promotes the County’s objective to stay true to its heritage while also supporting future growth and development. 2. Please explain how the project conforms to the general guidelines and policies contained in the Roanoke County Community Plan. The Planning Area Analysis for the Hollins Community Area lists among its “Community Values”: • There are many historic sites in the community that play a key role of providing the links to the past agricultural traditions of the community. • View of Tinker and Read Mountains are important to the residents of the community. Roanoke County Community Plan (2005), Chapter 7: Planning Area Analysis, Hollins Community Planning Area. As currently zoned (R-1 and R-2), the Property could be developed by right into a higher density residential community. While there is undoubtedly need in the Roanoke region for additional housing stock, maintaining the Property as agricultural, and allowing for low- intensity commercial agricultural uses, preserves in small part the rural nature of this part of Roanoke County. It is a stated goal of the County, as set forth in the AR zoning definition to encourage agricultural uses and to “maintain these areas essentially in their rural state.” The Community Plan also sets out the following statement of value and intention behind preserving rural land and promoting agricultural uses thereon: “In a broader sense, the existence of rural areas, working farms, pastoral views, and open space enhance the quality of life of all residents of the Roanoke Valley. Farming is an important and critical link to our agrarian heritage and culture…” Roanoke County Community Plan (2005), Chapter 5: Resource Preservation, Agricultural Resources. The updated Comprehensive Plan – the Roanoke County 200 Plan – carries this vision forward, setting five goals pertinent to this rezoning request: • Protect natural resource amenities, including air and water resources, forests, soils, wildlife habitat, open space, and viewsheds. • Beautify public areas, viewsheds and roadways. • Protect steep slope areas. • Prioritize preservation of historic and cultural resources, including historic buildings and landscapes, archaeological sites, and heritage resources and traditions. • Protect viewsheds and scenic resources from the ridges and from the valleys. Roanoke County 200 Plan, Vision and Goals, Chapter 9.5: Natural and Cultural Resources. The rezoning of the Property to AR ensures its continued use as agricultural land. This is consistent with and helps to fulfill the County’s stated value of maintaining, where possible, its rural character and agricultural heritage. Furthermore, the rezoning fulfills County goals applicable to protecting natural resources and the County’s cultural heritage of agriculture and land protection. As agricultural land with our proposed uses, rather than potential high-density residential development, the Land will offer wildlife, viewshed, and forest protection and beautification, it will stabilize and preserve the steep lower slopes of Read Mountain, all while maintaining the tradition of agriculture that runs deep to the County’s roots. 3. Please describe the impact(s) of the request on the property itself, the adjoining properties, and the surrounding area, as well as the impacts on public services and facilities, including water/sewer, roads, schools, parks/recreation and fire and rescue. Regardless of this change of zoning designation, we have no intention of ever developing the Property to the extent allowable under the R-1 or R-2 designations. That being said, rezoning the Property to AR ensures it will remain rural in character, thereby preserving its long history as farmland and also reducing demand on County services compared to what would exist if put to a more intensive use (e.g. residential or commercial development). The farm operations we plan for the Property will rely on well water and private (septic) sewer systems. As such, it will not add any demand on County utility services. Likewise, unlike a residential development, farm roads within the Property will be privately – not publicly – maintained. There is also no reason to anticipate that the rezoning of the Property would cause any increase demand on fire, police, or emergency services. With two new residential communities under development along Old Mountain Road in close proximity to the Property, vehicle traffic along that corridor will increase in the coming years, as will demand upon schools created by additional residential population. The rezoning and planned uses of the Property will not add to this increased demand on roadways or schools in a meaningful way. The substantially lower intensity agricultural use will not require additional vehicle traffic along Old Mountain Road or adjacent thoroughfares, nor will the limited residential use of the land increase local school censuses as would residential development of the Property. Finally, the rezoning will cause no additional demand on County Parks. Instead, by ensuring that Property remains rural and agricultural in character and use, it will be a benefit to the County’s park and conservation land at Read Mountain. By not developing the Property into a higher-density residential community, we will maintain the natural viewsheds to and from Read Mountain, and also preserve and protect forest and pasturelands used as habitat for wildlife in the Read Mountain Preserve area. Conclusion We ask the County to permit a rezoning of the Property from R-1 and R-2 to AR to allow for continued and expanded agricultural uses of the land. Rezoning the Property to AR creates no additional drain on County resources and is consistent with current and planned land use and development in the Old Mountain Road corridor and Hollins Planning Area. The proposed uses are in keeping with the historic land use of the Property and consistent with the purposes of the AR zoning designation and the County’s stated intention to maintain rural land where possible. This land is a “link to the past agricultural traditions of the community,” and we ask that this rezoning be approved in order to preserve and honor that heritage.

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

The purpose of the R-2, medium density district is to establish areas in the county within the urban service area where existing low-middle to middle density residential development (one (1) to six (6) units per acre) is primarily located and land areas which appear generally appropriate for such development. These areas are consistent with the neighborhood conservation land use category, and where public services warrant, the development land use category as recommended in the comprehensive plan. This district is intended to provide reasonable protection to existing single family residential neighborhoods, while accommodating a diversity of alternative housing options. These areas are designated based on access to roads, sewer and water, and schools with suitable capacity to accommodate development at the stated density. Older neighborhoods where smaller platted lot sizes exist are also included where opportunities exist for additional in-fill development. (A) 1. 2. (Ord. No. 042799-11, § 1f., 4-27-99; Ord.

These areas are generally characterized by very low density residential and institutional uses mixed with smaller parcels that have historically contained agricultural uses, forest land and open space outside the urban service area. These areas provide an opportunity for rural living in convenient proximity to urban services and employment. Agricultural uses should be encouraged to be maintained. Over time, however, these areas are expected to become increasingly residential in character, with residential development becoming the dominant use over agricultural and more rural type uses. The purpose of this district, consistent with the Rural Village land use category in the comprehensive plan, is to maintain these areas essentially in their rural state, consistent with the level of services anticipated by the county. These areas are generally suitable for low density residential development and other compatible land uses. (Ord. No. 62795-10, 6-27-95; Ord. No. 042799-11, § 1f., 4-27-99; Ord.

Community Activity Centers - Facilities which serve the neighboring residents including parks, schools, religious assembly facilities, parks and recreational facilities and community clubs and meeting areas. These activity centers should be linked to residential areas by greenways, bike and pedestrian trails. Land Use Determinants Public Facilities Capacity - Locations where public facilities are adequate to handle the increased population concentration. This includes schools, parks and recreation facilities and fire and rescue facilities. Utility Availability - Locations where water and sewer services exist or are scheduled to serve the area Environmental Capacity - Locations where natural land features, including topography, provide optimum opportunity for urban residential development. Access - Locations which have or can provide direct access to a major street. Urban Sector - Locations served by urban services. DEVELOPMENT Appendices A future land use area where a variety of industry types are encouraged to locate. Principal Industrial areas are existing and planned regional employment centers and are distributed throughout the county, convenient to major residential areas and suitable highway access. Due to limited availability, areas designated as Principal Industrial are not appropriate for tax-exempt facilities. Land Use Types Agricultural - Industries which involve the manufacturing, storage, marketing and wholesaling of agricultural products. These industries may also be located outside of the Principal Industrial areas, within the rural designations, where agricultural skills may be found. Small Industries and Custom Manufacturing - These industries typically serve a local market and may involve the on-site production of goods by hand manufacturing. Mining and Extraction - These facilities locate according to the availability of natural resources. Industrial - Conventional freestanding industrial uses, warehouses, wholesalers, storage yards. Industrial Parks - Large tracts of land that are subdivided, developed and designed according to a unified plan. These parks are employment centers and may include mixed land uses including supporting retail services. These types of industries are encouraged to develop in Principal Industrial areas. Planned industrial parks should incorporate greenways, bike and pedestrian paths into their designs and link these features to surrounding neighborhoods where appropriate. Land Use Determinants Existing Land Use Pattern - Locations where industry has historically developed. Existing Zoning - Locations zoned industrial. Economic Opportunity Areas - Locations identified by Roanoke County as an economic opportunity area. Employment Centers - Locations where labor-intensive industries exist.

N.2 AT A REGULAR MEETING OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF ROANOKE COUNTY, VIRGINIA HELD AT THE ROANOKE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION CENTER MEETING DATE: April 28, 2026 AGENDA ITEM: The petition of Scott & Heather Thompson to rezone approximately 44.33 acres from R-1S, Low Density Residential District with a special use permit, to AR, Agricultural/Residential District, located at 3525, 3529, 3499, and 0 Harborwood Road, Catawba Magisterial District. SUBMITTED BY: Philip Thompson Director of Planning APPROVED BY: Richard L. Caywood County Administrator ISSUE: Agenda item for public hearing and second reading of an ordinance to rezone approximately 44.33 acres from residential to agricultural. BACKGROUND: This application involves three adjacent parcels. Prior to the comprehensive rezoning in 1992, all three parcels were zoned A-1, Agricultural, District. During the comprehensive rezoning, the subject parcels were rezoned to R-1, Low Density Residential, District. In April 2011 the Board of Supervisors approved a special use permit on all three parcels for a private stable use type with two conditions. The first condition is that no more than one (1) horse or pony shall be permitted for every two (2) acres of pasture area, and the second is that a maximum of eight (8) horses shall be permitted with the private stable. The applicants are petitioning to rezone their properties from R-1S to AR in order to operate agricultural and associated agritourism use types in addition to the existing uses on the property (single family dwelling, short-term rental, private stable). DISCUSSION: Page 2 of 2 The Planning Commission held a public hearing on this petition on April 6, 2026. Two citizens spoke during the public hearing. Their concerns included: existing traffic issues on Harborwood Road including visibility, speed and the road being backed up if traffic is re-routed due to accidents on Interstate 81; the marking of any trails so horse riding would not occur on adjoining properties creating liability issues; the one -lane bridge entrance into the property being unsafe for drivers; and frustration on the notification process. The Planning Commission discussed: property improvements; property entrance; parking; notification requirements (letters sent and signs posted on the property); riding trails; comprehensive rezoning in 1992; surrounding agricultural uses and zoning; by - right uses in R-1; traffic generated by agricultural uses versus residential uses; and the future land use designation. The Planning Commission recommends approval of the rezoning as proposed. FISCAL IMPACT: There is no fiscal impact associated with this agenda item. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Board of Supervisors approve the second reading of an ordinance to rezone approximately 44.33 acres from R-1S, Low Density Residential District with a special use permit, to AR, Agricultural/Residential District. STAFF REPORT Petitioner: Scott & Heather Thompson Request: To rezone approximately 44.33 acres from R-1S, Low Density Residential District with special use permit, to AR, Agricultural/Residential District. Location: Tax Parcels: 3499, 3525, and 3529 Harborwood Road #065.00-01-62.00-0000; 065.00-01-62.02-0000; 065.00-01-63.00-0000 Proposed Proffered Conditions: None Scott & Heather Thompson are petitioning to rezone approximately 44.33 acres from R-1S, Low Density Residential District with special use permit, to AR, Agricultural/Residential District, located at 3499, 3525, and 3529 Harborwood Road, in the Catawba Magisterial District in order to operate agricultural and associated agritourism use types in addition to the existing uses on the property (single family dwelling, short-term rental, private stable). The Roanoke County 200 Plan indicates the future land use area of this parcel as Rural Village. Rural Village is a future land use area where limited development activity has historically occurred and where suburban or urban development patterns are discouraged. These rural community and farming areas are generally in between the intense suburban development patterns already established in the County and the designated Conservation and Rural Preserve areas. The proposed rezoning is consistent with the Rural Village future land use designation. 1.

Comprehensive site plan and building 2. ANALYSIS OF EXISTING CONDITIONS Background – The subject properties consist of three parcels. Prior to the comprehensive rezoning in 1992, all three parcels were zoned A-1, Agricultural, District. During the comprehensive rezoning, the subject parcels were rezoned to R-1, Low Density Residential, District. The first parcel is addressed 3499 Harborwood Road and contains a farmhouse constructed around 1829 as well as two accessory structures. The second parcel is 0 Harborwood Road (Tax Parcel #065.00-01-63.00-0000) and contains a detached garage. The largest parcel has two addresses: 3525 Harborwood Road (main house) and 3529 Harborwood Road (short-term rental). The home was constructed around 2001 and the short-term rental guest house was constructed in 2022. In April, 2011 the Board of Supervisors approved a special use permit on all three parcels for a private stable use type with two conditions. The first condition is that no more than one (1) horse or pony shall be permitted for every two (2) acres of pasture area, and the second is that a maximum of eight (8) horses shall be permitted with the private stable. elevation from the lowest point at Harborwood Road to the highest point where the existing single-family dwelling is located. The property consists of cleared pasture area for the horses as well as grassy fields; however, a majority of the property is wooded area which covers over twenty-five acres of the property. A stream runs along the property frontage at Harborwood Road which runs into the Roanoke River at Green Hill Park. There is currently no mapped floodplain on the property, but the preliminary updated FEMA maps do show an increase of the 100-year-floodplain on the property immediately along this streambed. Density Residential with one property to the south being zoned AG-3, Agricultural/Rural Preserve. The surrounding neighborhood is almost entirely single-family dwellings with some existing agricultural use types. Community Outreach – Approximately thirty-three (33) 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, two calls have been received by staff with general questions about the application. One caller expressed concerns related to existing traffic issues on Harborwood Road. 3.ANALYSIS OF PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT Site Layout/Architecture – The submitted concept plan shows the proposed plans for the subject properties. No changes are currently being proposed to the existing entrance, horse pasture, primary dwelling, guest residence, or wooded areas on the property. The proposed changes to the property include creating a vegetable farm, orchard, and replacing the existing farmhouse with a new farmhouse for additional guest accommodations with five bedrooms. goes over the stream running parallel to Harborwood Road. This access road connects to all portions of the subject properties and is approximately fourteen-feet wide. After the bridge, the main drive is paved but branches off to the left and right as smaller gravel access ways. To the left, the gravel drive goes to the detached garage. To the right, another gravel drive goes to the farmhouse, future garden area, and existing accessory structures. The main paved drive goes from the bridge to the top of the hill and the primary dwelling. There is another gravel drive that branches off this road and connects to the guest house / short- term rental to form a loop driveway. The application states that the traffic generated by the rezoning will be minimal and mostly daytime arrivals and departures being anticipated on the weekends. No large scale events are planned, but instead small group farm experiences would be offered for team building or Agencies Comments: The following agencies provided comments on this application: Roanoke County Transportation - Please provide anticipated daily vehicle trips for Agritourism and guest lodging activities, including what expected vehicle volumes will be during peak seasons. Fire and Rescue – Fire and Rescue does not object to the project, and it will not increase the provided services. General Services – General Services does not see any issues and has no comments. VDOT – It appears from the information provided that allowing single family and short-term rental use on this property will not adversely impact the VDOT right-of-way. Any future expansions or redevelopment of the parcel or alteration to the existing drive may require VDOT review, approval, and permitting. 4. CONFORMANCE WITH ROANOKE COUNTY COMMUNITY PLAN The Roanoke County 200 Plan indicates the future land use area of this parcel as Rural Village. Rural Village is a future land use area where limited development activity has historically occurred and where suburban or urban development patterns are discouraged. These rural community and farming areas are designated Conservation and Rural Preserve areas. The proposed rezoning is consistent with the Rural Village future land use designation. 5.

SEC. 30-34. - AR AGRICULTURAL/RESIDENTIAL DISTRICT. Sec. 30-34-1. - Purpose. These areas are generally characterized by very low density residential and institutional uses mixed with smaller parcels that have historically contained agricultural uses, forest land and open space outside the urban service area. These areas provide an opportunity for rural living in convenient proximity to urban services and employment. Agricultural uses should be encouraged to be maintained. Over time, however, these areas are expected to become increasingly residential in character, with residential development becoming the dominant use over agricultural and more rural type uses. The purpose of this district, consistent with the Rural Village land use category in the comprehensive plan, is to maintain these areas essentially in their rural state, consistent with the level of services anticipated by the county. These areas are generally suitable for low density residential development and other compatible land uses. (Ord. No. 62795-10, 6-27-95; Ord. No. 042799-11, § 1f., 4-27-99; Ord.

N.3 AT A REGULAR MEETING OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF ROANOKE COUNTY, VIRGINIA HELD AT THE ROANOKE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION CENTER MEETING DATE: April 28, 2026 AGENDA ITEM: The petition of Tina Arcuri to amend a special use permit condition regarding freestanding signage on approximately 10.54 acres of land zoned C-2CS, High Intensity Commercial District with conditions and a special use permit, located at 917 North Electric Road, Catawba Magisterial District. SUBMITTED BY: Philip Thompson Director of Planning APPROVED BY: Richard L. Caywood County Administrator ISSUE: Agenda item for public hearing and second reading of an ordinance to amend a special use permit condition regarding freestanding signage. BACKGROUND: In 2021, Secure Storage, LLC filed a petition to remove four (4) proffered conditions affecting this property, and to obtain a special use permit for a mini-warehouse facility. Through adoption of Ordinance #062221-8, the Board of Supervisors approved the removal of four (4) proffered conditions and the request for a special use permit for a mini-warehouse facility. The approved special use permit included five (5) conditions, one of which requires that, “freestanding signage shall be limited to one freestanding sign approximately 12 feet in height and 10 feet in width and shall be in conformance with the concept drawings provided by Blink Signs dated April 13, 2021”. After the mini-warehouse facility was constructed in August 2025, the facility changed ownership in November 2025. The applicant, on behalf of the new owner, is proposing to replace the existing freestanding sign with a new freestanding sign that is not in Page 2 of 2 conformance with the concept drawings provided by Blink Signs dated April 13, 2021. Therefore, the applicant is petitioning to amend the special use permit condition regarding freestanding signage. DISCUSSION: The Planning Commission held a public hearing on this petition on April 6, 2026. No citizens spoke during the public hearing. The Planning Commission discussed the project, the special use permit condition regarding signage, and that no public comments have been received on this application. The Planning Commission voted to recommend approval of the special use permit amending the condition regarding freestanding signage as follows: . Freestanding signage shall be limited to one freestanding sign approximately 12 feet in height and 10 feet in width, and shall be in conformance with the concept drawing provided by Blink Signs dated April 13, 2021Image National Signs dated January 15, 2026. 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 amend a special use permit for freestanding signage as follows: . Freestanding signage shall be limited to one freestanding sign approximately 12 feet in height and 10 feet in width, and shall be in conformance with the concept drawing provided by Blink Signs dated April 13, 2021Image National Signs dated January 15, 2026. STAFF REPORT Petitioner: Tina Arcuri (on behalf of Public Storage) Request: Amend a special use permit condition regarding freestanding signage on approximately 10.54 acres of land zoned C-2CS, High Intensity Commercial District Location: Tax Parcels: 917 North Electric Road #036.19-01-41.01-0000 Suggested Amended Condition: Note: d. Freestanding signage shall be limited to one freestanding sign approximately 12 feet in height and 10 feet in width, and shall be in conformance with the concept drawing provided by Blink Signs dated April 13, 2021Image National Signs dated January 15, 2026. All other special use permit conditions would remain in place. Tina Arcuri (on behalf of Public Storage) is petitioning to amend a special use permit condition regarding freestanding signage on approximately 10.54 acres of land zoned C-2CS, High Intensity Commercial District with conditions and special use permit, located at 917 North Electric Road, Catawba Magisterial District. Amendment of this condition would allow for the existing mini-warehouse facility’s freestanding sign to be replaced with a new freestanding sign advertising the new facility owner. The Roanoke County 200 Plan indicates the future land use designation of this area as Core. Core areas are where high-intensity urban development is encouraged. Core areas may be appropriate for larger-scale highway-oriented retail uses and regionally based shopping facilities. The petition to amend the special use permit condition regarding freestanding signage for the existing mini-warehouse facility would not affect the use of the property and is consistent with the Core future land use designation. 1. APPLICABLE REGULATIONS In 2021, Secure Storage, LLC filed a petition to remove four (4) proffered conditions affecting this property, and to obtain a special use permit for a mini-warehouse facility. Through adoption of Ordinance #062221-8, the Board of Supervisors approved the removal of four (4) proffered conditions and the request for a special use permit for a mini-warehouse facility. The approved special use permit included five (5) conditions, one of which requires that, “freestanding signage shall be limited to one freestanding sign approximately 12 feet in height and 10 feet in width, and shall be in conformance with the concept drawings provided by Blink Signs dated April 13, 2021”. After the mini-warehouse facility was constructed in August 2025, the facility changed ownership in November 2025. The applicant, on behalf of the new owner, is proposing to replace the existing provided by Blink Signs dated April 13, 2021. Therefore, the applicant is petitioning to amend the special use permit condition regarding freestanding signage. 2. ANALYSIS OF EXISTING CONDITIONS Background – In 1984, the subject property (previously three (3) parcels prior to a 2022 small plat application combining the parcels into one) and the parcel to the north underwent a rezoning from R-1, Residential District, to B-2C, Business District with conditions for the purpose of constructing a “new car dealership” (see attached Ordinance #1283-46 for additional information). A new car dealership was constructed on the parcel to the north, with the subject property remaining vacant. In 1998, the middle portion of the subject property (previously a separate parcel) was rezoned from C-1, Low Intensity Commercial District, to C-2C, High Intensity Commercial District with conditions, for the purpose of constructing ARK Medical Center. The proffered conditions in this rezoning related to the building design, landscaping, lighting, and signage (see Ordinance #081898-10 for additional information). ARK Medical Center was never constructed. In 2002, the middle and southern portion of the subject property (previously two separate parcels) were rezoned to C-2C, High Intensity Commercial District with conditions, for the purpose of constructing the Country Inn & Suites and Family Restaurant. The approval of this rezoning proffered conditions related to the general building design, access, landscaping, lighting and signage, and effectively revoked all previously proffered conditions (see Ordinance #082702-11 for additional information). The Country Inn & Suites and Family Restaurant was never constructed. In 2021, Secure Store, LLC petitioned to rezone the subject property (previously three separate parcels) to remove proffered conditions associated with the 1984 and 2002 rezonings and to obtain a special use permit for a mini-warehouse facility. Both the request to rezone the subject property and obtain a special use permit for a mini-warehouse facility were approved (see Ordinance #062221-8 for additional information). Through approval of the rezoning, the 1984 proffered condition requiring that the northern portion of the subject property be used only as a “new car dealership” was removed, and three (3) of the 2002 proffered conditions affecting the middle and southern portion of the subject property specific to construction of the Country Inn & Suites and Family Restaurant were removed. The subsequent approval of the special use permit for a mini-warehouse facility imposed the following five (5) conditions on the subject property. a. The site shall be developed in general conformance with the concept plan titled “Concept Plan’ prepared by Engineering Concepts, Inc., dated May 26, 2021, subject to any changes required during the site plan review process. b. Landscaping on site shall be installed in general conformance to the concept plan titled “Concept Plan” prepared by Engineering Concepts, Inc., dated May 26, 2021, subject to any changes required during the site plan review process. c. Lighting on site shall be limited to lighting fixtures on the proposed buildings. There shall be no freestanding light poles on site. d. Freestanding signage shall be limited to one freestanding sign approximately 12 feet in height and 10 feet in width, and shall be in conformance with the concept drawings provided by Blink Signs dated April 13, 2021. e. The building shall be constructed in general conformance with the architectural rendering submitted by the applicant dated June 10, 2021. In 2022, a small plat application was made to combine the subject property (previously three parcels) and a recordation of this plat established the current 10.54 acres of the subject property. In 2023, Secure Store Salem, LLC, bought the subject property and applied for permits for the construction of a mini-warehouse facility and installation of signage. The construction of the mini-warehouse facility and installation of signage were completed by August 2025. In November 2025, PS Southeast One, LLC, bought the subject property with the intent to replace the existing freestanding sign with a new sign reflecting the new facility owner. Considering condition ‘d’ of the special use permit approved for the mini-warehouse facility requires that freestanding signage shall be in conformance with the concept drawings provided by Blink Signs dated April 13, 2021, amendment of this special use permit condition is required prior to replacing the freestanding sign. portion of the property at an elevation of approximately 1,210 feet, and the southernmost portion of the property at an elevation of approximately 1,136 feet. To the west, the landscape slopes sharply upward approximately 30 feet to the top of a berm and then slopes back down approximately 8 feet to North Electric Road, partially shielding the facility from the roadway. To the east, the landscape slopes downward between the facility and residential neighborhoods. The vegetation between the facility and property lines is primarily maintained grass and a mix of landscaping, including trees and shrubs. Some of the previously established deciduous vegetation has been maintained on the eastern and southern property edges. Salem located directly across North Electric Road and less than a quarter mile to the south. The property to the North is zoned C-2CS, High Intensity Commercial District with conditions and special use permit, and is the location of Pinkerton Chevrolet car dealership. To the east, parcels are primarily zoned R-1, Low Density Residential District, and are developed with single-family dwellings, with one 6.14 acre parcel zoned R-3, Medium Density Multi-Family Residential District, that is vacant. The parcel to the south is zoned R-1, Low Density Residential District, and is developed with a church. Parcels to the west across North Electric Road located in the City of Salem and primarily zoned BCD, Business Commerce District, with a few parcels zoned RSD, Residential Single Family District. The BCD zoned parcels are vacant except for the Department of Environmental Quality building. The RSD parcels contain single-family dwellings. Community Outreach – Approximately twenty (20) 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. No comments have been received to date. 3.ANALYSIS OF PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT Site Layout/Architecture – The site has an existing mini-warehouse facility with four (4) separate buildings and gated security fencing enclosing the entire facility. The existing freestanding sign is located on the west side of the property on the elevated berm between the facility and North Electric Road. The concept plans show that the proposed freestanding sign will replace the existing sign in its exact location. The proposed sign will be slightly smaller in size at 9’-3” in height rather than 12” in height, with the face designed to read ‘Public Storage’ in white text over an orange background, and with directional information and the site address on the base of the sign below this text. Pinkerton Chevrolet car dealership to the north and the subject property. The entirety of this access easement is asphalted until it reaches the entrance to the mini-warehouse facility. At this point, the drive buildings until reaching a circular turnaround point at the southern end of the facility. Agencies Comments: The following agencies provided comments on this application: Office of Building Safety: All construction will need to meet the requirements of the Virginia Uniform Statewide Building Code. Fire and Rescue: Fire and Rescue does not object to the installation of new signage. 4. CONFORMANCE WITH ROANOKE COUNTY COMPREHENSIVE PLAN The Roanoke County 200 Plan indicates the future land use designation of this area as Core. Core areas are where high-intensity urban development is encouraged. Core areas may be appropriate for larger-scale highway-oriented retail uses and regionally based shopping facilities. The petition to amend the special use permit condition regarding freestanding signage for the existing mini-warehouse facility would not affect the use of the property and is consistent with the Core future land use designation. 5. STAFF CONCLUSIONS Tina Arcuri (on behalf of Public Storage) is petitioning to amend a special use permit condition regarding freestanding signage on approximately 10.54 acres of land zoned C-2CS, High Intensity Commercial District with conditions and special use permit, located at 917 North Electric Road, Catawba Magisterial District. The Roanoke County 200 Plan indicates the future land use designations of this area as Core. The petition to amend the special use permit condition regarding freestanding signage for the existing mini-warehouse facility would not affect the use of this property and is consistent with the Core future land use designation. A Sign Permit will be required prior to installation of the new freestanding sign, at which point the proposed sign will be reviewed for compliance with the special use permit conditions affecting this property.

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.

Effective date: April 19, 2005 Name of Petition Petitioner’s Signature Date Tina Arcuri 2/13/26 Project Description Public Storage is a new tenant at 917 North Electric Road in Roanoke County, Virginia. The applicant is requesting approval for installation of new exterior signage identifying the facility. The proposed sign is consistent with Public Storage’s nationally recognized branding standards and is designed to provide clear, professional identification of the business while maintaining compatibility with the surrounding commercial corridor. Importantly, the proposed Public Storage sign is significantly smaller than the existing SecurStor Self Storage sign previously located on the property. The new signage represents a reduction in overall sign area and visual scale compared to the former tenant’s signage. As such, the request results in a visual improvement and reduced signage impact along the Electric Road corridor. The property is located along Electric Road (Route 419), a major arterial corridor characterized by commercial development, retail establishments, service businesses, and institutional uses. The requested signage will be installed on an existing commercial site and will not involve expansion of the building footprint or any change in land use. 1.How the Request Furthers the Purposes of the Roanoke County Zoning Ordinance and the Applicable Zoning District The intent of the Roanoke County Zoning Ordinance is to promote the public health, safety, and general welfare of the community by regulating land use in a manner that: •Encourages orderly development •Protects property values •Enhances visual quality •Promotes economic vitality •Ensures compatibility among land uses The proposed sign directly furthers these purposes in the following ways: A. Orderly and Coordinated Commercial Development Electric Road is a well-established commercial corridor where signage is expected and necessary for business identification. The proposed Public Storage sign: •Provides clear identification of a lawful commercial use. •Maintains consistency with the commercial character of the corridor. •Contributes to an organized and professional streetscape. •Reduces overall sign mass compared to the previous SecurStor signage. By replacing a larger existing sign with a smaller, professionally designed sign, the applicant supports the Ordinance’s goal of structured and harmonious development. B. Protection of Public Safety The proposed signage will: •Improve wayfinding and reduce driver confusion. •Allow motorists to safely identify the business from appropriate distances. •Reduce sudden lane changes or abrupt stops caused by unclear identification. Clear identification of commercial entrances along an arterial roadway enhances traffic safety. The reduced sign size further minimizes visual clutter while maintaining adequate visibility. C. Protection of Property Values and Visual Quality Because the new sign is significantly smaller than the previous SecurStor sign, it: •Reduces visual intensity along the corridor. •Improves proportionality relative to the building façade. •Contributes to a cleaner and more refined streetscape appearance. This reduction in sign area demonstrates sensitivity to corridor aesthetics and reinforces the Ordinance’s intent to enhance visual quality while allowing effective business identification. D. Consistency with the Purpose of the Applicable Zoning District The commercial zoning classification along Electric Road is intended to: •Provide areas for retail and service establishments. •Accommodate businesses serving the community. •Maintain attractive and functional commercial corridors. •Ensure compatibility with surrounding development. The proposed signage supports these purposes by: •Identifying a permitted commercial use. •Enhancing the operational viability of the site. •Maintaining appropriate scale and compatibility. •Reducing overall signage impact compared to the prior tenant. The request does not increase intensity or alter district character; rather, it represents a visual improvement over previous conditions. 2. Conformance with the Roanoke County Community Plan The Roanoke County Community Plan emphasizes: •Managed growth and reinvestment in existing commercial corridors •Enhancement of arterial corridor aesthetics •Economic development and business retention •Safe and efficient transportation networks A. Reinforcement of Established Commercial Corridors Electric Road (Route 419) is a primary commercial corridor within the County. The Community Plan encourages reinvestment and upgrades within established areas. The proposed signage: •Represents reinvestment by a new national tenant. •Improves building identity while reducing overall sign size. •Supports continued viability of an existing commercial property. B. Corridor Aesthetics and Visual Character The reduced scale of the proposed sign compared to the previous SecurStor sign directly advances the Community Plan’s emphasis on maintaining attractive commercial corridors. The new sign: •Is professionally manufactured. •Is appropriately scaled to the building and roadway. •Reduces visual mass and clutter along Electric Road. This represents a net visual improvement to the corridor. C. Transportation and Access Management Clear signage supports safe travel along Electric Road by allowing motorists to anticipate site access. The project: •Does not alter access points. •Does not increase traffic generation. •Improves wayfinding without increasing visual distraction. 3. Impacts of the Request A. Impact on the Subject Property The impact on the property is positive: •Enhances tenant identification. •Supports long-term commercial viability. •Reduces signage scale compared to the prior tenant. •Does not increase development footprint or impervious area. B. Impact on Adjoining Properties The adjoining properties consist primarily of commercial uses. The proposed sign: •Is compatible with surrounding commercial signage. •Is smaller than the previous sign on-site. •Will not obstruct views, light, or air. •Will not create glare or nuisance conditions if illuminated in accordance with County standards. Given the reduction in sign area, impacts on adjoining properties are less than those previously experienced under the SecurStor signage. C. Impact on the Surrounding Area The surrounding area is commercial in nature. The proposed signage: •Maintains the commercial character of the corridor. •Reduces overall signage intensity. •Does not increase density or change land use patterns. The request results in a net aesthetic improvement relative to prior conditions. 4.Impacts on Public Services and Facilities Water and Sewer No additional demand is created by the signage. Existing infrastructure remains adequate. Roads and Traffic No increase in traffic beyond the approved commercial use. The signage improves visibility without creating safety concerns. Schools No impact, as the use is non-residential. Parks and Recreation No impact. Fire and Rescue No change in emergency access or service demand. Conclusion The proposed Public Storage signage at 917 North Electric Road: •Furthers the purposes of the Roanoke County Zoning Ordinance. •Is consistent with the intent of the applicable commercial zoning district. •Conforms to the Roanoke County Community Plan. •Results in a reduction in overall sign size compared to the previous SecurStor Self Storage signage, thereby improving corridor aesthetics. • Creates no adverse impacts on neighboring properties or public services. For these reasons, approval of the requested signage is respectfully recommended. Budget Signs dba Fastsigns of Salem (VA) Coastal Sign Service 911 N Electric Rd.

Signs obstruct views, distract motorists, displace alternative uses for land, and pose other problems that legitimately call for regulation. The purpose of this ordinance is to regulate the size, color, illumination, movement, materials, location, height and condition of all signs placed on private property for exterior observation, thus ensuring the protection of property values, the character of the various neighborhoods, the creation of a convenient, attractive and harmonious community, protection against destruction of or encroachment upon historic areas, and the safety and welfare of pedestrians and wheeled traffic while providing convenience to citizens and encouraging economic development. This ordinance allows adequate communication through signage while encouraging aesthetic quality in the design, location, size and purpose of all signs. This ordinance shall be interpreted in a manner consistent with the First Amendment guarantee of free speech. If any provision of this article is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, such finding shall not affect the validity of other provisions of this article which can be given effect without the invalid provision. Signs not expressly permitted as being allowed by right or by special use permit under this ordinance, by specific requirements in another portion of this ordinance, or otherwise expressly allowed by the Board of Supervisors are forbidden. A sign placed on land or on a building for the purpose of identification, protection or directing persons to a use conducted therein shall be deemed to be an integral but accessory and subordinate part of the principal use of land or building. Therefore, the intent of this ordinance is to establish limitations on signs in order to ensure they are appropriate to the land, building or use to which they are appurtenant and are adequate for their intended purpose while balancing the individual and community interests identified in subsection (A) of this section. These regulations are intended to promote signs that are compatible with the use of the property to which they are appurtenant, landscape and architecture of surrounding buildings, are legible and appropriate to the activity to which they pertain, are not distracting to motorists, and are constructed and maintained in a structurally sound and attractive condition. These regulations distinguish between portions of the County designed for primarily vehicular access and portions of the County designed for primarily pedestrian access. These regulations do not regulate every form and instance of visual speech that may be displayed anywhere within the jurisdictional limits of the County. Rather, they are intended to regulate those forms and instances that are most likely to meaningfully affect one or more of the purposes set forth above. 3/24/26, 10:22 AM Roanoke County, VA Code of Ordinances about:blank 1/14 (A) 1. 2. 3. (B) (A) 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. a. b. These regulations do not entirely eliminate all of the harms that may be created by the installation and display of signs. Rather, they strike an appropriate balance that preserves ample channels of communication by means of visual display while still reducing and mitigating the extent of the harms caused by signs. (Ord. No. 092303-8, § 1, 9-23-03) Editor's note— Ord. No. 031219-6, adopted March 12, 2019, in effect, repealed § 30-93-1. Former § 30-93-1 pertained to purpose and derived from Ord.
