Briefing regarding the termination of the Orange and Yellow

COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR'S COMMENTS:
SUMMARY OF INFORMATION:
Unified Human Services Transportation System, Inc., trading as RADAR, obtained a 50/50
federal grant through the Federal Transit Administration and began operating the Orange
Line and Yellow Line services in July 2000. The match for this grant was provided by the
Virginia Department of Social Services. No local monies have been involved, no fare is
charged for the service, and Roanoke County has no control over its operation.
Funding for this program was a part of the Job Access and Reverse Commute Program.
The service provided connections with Valley Metro and allowed a minimal public transit
service along two corridors in Roanoke County. The Orange Line operated along Route
419 between Tanglewood Mall and Lewis Gale Hospital, 12 hours per day, five days per
week. The Yellow Line operated from Spartan Square to the areas along 460 west of
Salem, 12 hours per day, six days per week. The annual budget for the service is
$233,376 based on the cost of $34 per hour, and has an average combined ridership of
8,600 one-way trips per year (average of 30 trips per day at a cost of $27.14 per trip).
Many committees and organizations have studied the need for public transportation for the
entire Roanoke Valley and the conclusions remain the same. Most of the limited federal/
state funding available for public transportation is awarded to the service provided by Valley
Metro. Some limited state and federal pass-through monies are used to assist in the local
1
(l-¡
programs of CORTRAN and STAR, but the majority of the expenses for these local
programs are funded with local tax dollars, with a small fare paid by the rider.
RADAR has been notified by the state that the match money for the Orange and Yellow
Line service would no longer be available after the end of this fiscal year (June 30, 2005)
and the federal monies would likely end in November. Although the program offers a
desirable and even critical service for the community, the number of riders on these
programs (Orange Line and Yellow Line) is not sufficient to warrant the continuation of this
service in the present form even if there was a fare paid similar to the fares charged to the
users of the CORTRAN program.
In Roanoke County, the CORTRAN program is operated by RADAR and provides curb to
curb service to County residents who are either senior adults (age 60 or older) or are
covered under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). The fare for this service is $3.50
per one way trip and will provide service to any point inside the outer perimeter of Roanoke
County (including points inside the Cities of Roanoke and Salem). The CORTRAN Service
operates with pick-up times running from 7:00 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., Monday through Friday
except for holidays. The actual cost to the County for each one way trip is an average of
$24.50 (above the fare paid by the rider).
Similarly, the STAR program operated by RADAR offers the City's paratransit and senior
transportation service. The STAR fare is $2.50 per one way trip and does not go outside of
the City except for a % mile deviation from the regular Valley Metro route inside the Town
of Vinton and City of Salem. As a result, some city residents who desire to go to
destinations in Roanoke County must use a cab or other transportation system.
Some limited increase in the usage of the CORTRAN program of Roanoke County and the
STAR program operated for Valley Metro for the eligible riders is expected as a result of the
loss of the Orange Line and Yellow Line Services; however the cost to replace the service
is not justified for the limited service area covered. By comparison, the Orange Line and
Yellow Line service in the two limited service areas costs $233,376 per year and the
County will pay approximately $273,000 this year for CORTRAN to cover the entire County.
In discussions with Curtis Andrews at RADAR and based on correspondence provided by
the state, staff does not anticipate that state or federal monies will be available to continue
the Orange Line and Yellow Line Services in its present format.
RADAR has been working for several weeks to advise the community that the service is
scheduled to end on June 30. Although all riders of the Orange Line and Yellow Line do
not qualify for CORTRAN and also the fact that any other transportation service would
probably not be free, other opportunities do exist. Several adult home complexes and
some businesses have talked with Mr. Andrews and are seeking other alternatives to meet
the transportation needs of as many of their residents, employees, or patrons as possible.
Attached are copies of a petition with 100 signatures submitted by Wendell Siler, Jr.; and
correspondence from Ms. Shirley Young, a resident of Farrington Apartments in Roanoke
2
~- I
City (beside 419 in the Oak Grove area) and Mr. Don Elder, a resident of the Oak Grove
area.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Should Roanoke County choose to fund the Orange and Yellow Line services, the local
cost would be $233,376 annually. A fare similar to the CORTRAN program should be
considered to provide some minimal offset to this cost.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff does not recommend funding for the Orange and Yellow line program because of the
limited areas served. For the residents eligible for the CORTRAN program, many of the
local transportation needs can be met. For those not eligible for the CORTRAN program,
they should consider the League of Older Americans, taxi cab service, or other
transportation services.
Staff will attempt to answer any other questions during the briefing to the Board.

Ibanoke, VA 24018
Dear Mr . Altizer:
Enclosed by this cover letter is ei ther a copy or an original of a :petition ci=ulãtecì
recently by rre, Dell Siler. Signed by l:xJth R:>anoke Cì ty and County residents from
all soc:ioeconomic walks of life, this :petition protests the· upcoming elimination of
RADAR,lCDRTRAN' s Orange and Yellow Line AM-accessible bus schedules. The secondary
pur¡;x:>se of the sign-up sheet is to request a continuation of the Line' s route 1.mtil
such tirœ an econcxn:i.cal and ·plausible Valley Jt.1etro/Sbcial Services/RADAR alternative
can be put into;·¿service.
Termination of the Orange and YellOW' lines, scheduled for June 30, will rrean a
trenendous hardship for ITBIlY elderly and physically challenged citizens in Sou"t:l1\\1E!st
Roanoke County. We \Vho happen to be driving-ïnpqred used tbe Lines to shop for
groceries at anyone of tbe three Krogers on the route, for making barber and beauty
app:>in1:IIents, for seeing our physicians, and for getting to work. Vbat began as
a "feeder" service--to get Cb1.mty residents to ooard Ib\.vntown MI::bDo buses-has becorœ
a lifeline for marlY people who cannot conventionally travel in any other way.
It is clearly underst.cx:x:l by everyone through the local rœdia why these transportation
avenues are closing. HcMever, tbe p:Mer~-tnat-be need to get beyond the mantra,
···''''Ihe Gcant .~~""'" nut n, and start lCX)king for options for Southwest Co1mty ci-tiz~"O.-5
to enjoy th.e 'Sarre freedom of IIDbiolity that Itrwntown Ibanoke Metro Bus pasSE!bcJers
have been afforded for seventy years.

Dear Mayor Harris:
As a senior citizen and long-time resident of Roanoke City, I was upset to learn that I will soon
find myself without any transportation. I am now a resident at Farrington Apartments on
Grandin Road. The other residents and I have been riding the Orange Bus, which is provided by
Yaney Metro through a grant. Because the grant money will end on June 30, information has
been posted stating that the Orange Bus transportation services will stop at the end of this month.
The Orange line took us to the Valley Metro at Tanglewood Mall and Lewis Gale. Without this
service, there is no 10nger a convenient and affordable way to get to the Valley Metro.
The Orange Bus drivers have suggested that we sign up with Radar. However, Radar costs $5
per round trip each time and must be scheduled ahead. As an elderly, legally blind person 1iving
on a limited income, I feel that Radar will not adequately meet my needs or the needs of many of
the other residents in this area. Therefore, I am asking for your help with this matter. I
appreciate anything you can do for the people of Roanoke City who are being adverse1y affected
by the ending oftms transportation service.
Thank you,
th
Shir1ey M. Young

The Orange/Yellow Line bus service is ending June 30, 2005. This fact probably does not mean much to you,
but as a "non-driver" in the Roanoke Valley, it means the end of freedom and flexibility in transportation that I
have enjoyed since the services' inception. Having lived in Roanoke County for nearly 30 years I can attest to
the fact that mass transit in Roanoke is BAD. If you do not think so, park your car for a day or two and then
go about your daily routine. It is difficult to say the least.
My understanding is the Orangetyellow Line was part of a grant through the state Department of Rail and
Transportation, RADAR and Valley Metro. The grant stopped receiving funding for some reason. I have not
been able to get a clear response to this particular question from these organizations.
Many committees in the Roanoke Valley have met to discuss the issue of mass transit. Probably as many as
have looked at Victory Stadium. But there is no resolution to either issue.
The facts are if an individual does not drive due to car problems, health issues, can not afford a car or loss of a
driving permit there will be no public transportation assistance in the areas the Orangetyellow Line served.
This loss will result in some individuals not able to continue working. Others will not take jobs, not get medical
carel not shop. Still others will move from the Roanoke/Salem area or choose not to live here in the first
place. Business will suffer and may relocate or choose other locations.
These issues support an environment declining in business opportunities; culture, diversification, richness of
life, personal independence and the overall quality of life.
If this is the type of environment that is desired for Roanoke/Salem citizens, this community and its businesses
.Then do nothing about this termination of the Orange/Yellow line.
Si ncerely,
Donald E Elder

Mr. Donald Elder

Roanoke, Virginia 24018
Dear Mr. Elder:
Thank you for your letter concerning public transportation service offered by RADAR in
Roanoke County. You expressed your concern regarding the proposed discontinuation of
the OrangeNellow Line route that is scheduled to occur on June 30, 2005.
You are correct that the route was initiated with special grant funding administered by
this agency, the Department of Rail and Public Transportation (DRPT). The funds to
operate the route came from two sources - one federal and one state. The federal funds
were provided from a Federal Transit Administration program called the "Jobs Access
and Reverse Commute" (lARC) program and the state funds came from a Department of
Social Services program called "Temporary Assistance to Needy Families" (T ANF).
Together these two programs paid 100% of the .costs of operating the OrangeN ellow
Line. Money from the federal JARC program does not come to Virginia every year. It
must be provided through a special appropriation (earmark) each year and the special
appropriation usually specifies the exact amount and where the funds will be spent. In
the past, the state TANF funds have been provided to us through the Department of
Social Services but those funds have been re-appropriated and no longer are available to
us. The botto~ line is that the special funding sources that enabled the OrangeN ellow .
Line to get started have been exhausted. If the service is to continue it must be supported
by our standard federal and stat~ public transportation funding programs.
Our standard federal and state funding programs for public transportation do not support
100% of the costs of the service. They require local funding support as well. This
coming year RADAR will receive federal, state and local funds to operate public
transportation services in the Roanoke area. The revenues that they will collect from
riders and federal and state funds will combine to support about two thirds of the
operating costs and local funds will support about one third. In order for the
OrangeN ellow Line to continue, Roanoke County must be willing to provide financial
support to RADAR to operate the line.

I understand that Mr. Curtis Andrews, CEO for RADAR, has approached Roanoke
County with such a request. If the County is willing to support the route, we will provide
our resources as well. .
Thank you for your letter and for your support of public transportation.
Sincerely,
arles M. Badger

Change order for Public Safety Building project
(foundation/auger piles due to unsuitable soils)

Dan O'Donnell ~
Assistant County Administrator
AGENDA ITEM:
COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR'S COMMENTS: ,-
~~ ~f~J~ - \~ ~)~~~ ~~)
SUMMARY OF INFORMATION:
As discussed at a work session held on June 14, Northrop-Grumman has submitted a
proposed change order for revised foundation construction due to soft soils under the
dispatch wing of the new Public Safety Building. With the guidance of the County's
construction management firm, Construction Dynamics Group, staff rejected the original
change order proposals and instructed Northrop-Grumman to identify alternative methods
of ensuring a sound foundation and to absorb all redesign costs. Northrop-Grumman has
agreed to absorb the redesign cost and has presented three options for consideration. The
alternatives presented are maximum prices and could be lower if the depths of the
additional foundation supports are less than estimated or if fewer piles are required.
Conversely, if the depths of the piles need to be deeper than estimated or more piles are
required, Northrop-Grumman will absorb any additional cost. The original proposed change
order is presented below and the revisions are listed in the "alternativesJl section of this
report.
As staff has agreed to bring all proposed change orders above $100,000 to the Board for
approval, this item is on the agenda for consideration by the Board of Supervisors.
Oriainal Chance Order Proposals:
Micro-piles system and revised foundation design - This original proposal was priced at
$528,685 plus design costs of $11 ,463 for a total proposed change amount of $540,148.
This amount included all costs for redesign of the foundation. Staff rejected this proposal
and instructed Northrop-Grumman to submit another proposal with several options for
~"..
E-~
alternative structural systems. Northrop-Grumman was also notified that the County would
not pay for engineering and redesign costs as the unsuitable soils should have been
discovered prior to the original foundation design being completed. Northrop-Grumman
has agreed with this concept and sent an alternative proposed change order with the
following alternatives.
ALTERNATIVES:
Option 1: Geopiers - 250 30" diagonal geopiers, at a depth of 9 to 13 feet.
Cost - Not to Exceed $408,328
Option 2: Auger Cast Piles - 172 12" diameter Auger Cast Piles at an average depth of
21 feet
Cost - Not to Exceed $319,034
Option 3: Micropiles - 172 a" diameter Micropiles at an average depth of 21 feet
Cost - Not to Exceed $510,629
All three alternatives have been analyzed by Construction Dynamics Group (COG) for cost
and effectiveness.
FISCAL IMPACT:
An amount not to exceed cost of $319,034 would be deducted for the current project
contingency amount of $811 ,245, leaving a balance of at least $492,211 in the contingency.
These funds are already in the project budget and no additional appropriation is necessary.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that Option 2 - Auger Cast Piles be approved as it is the lowest cost
method and has been deemed by COG to be an effective method of ensuring a sound
foundation.

SUMMARY OF INFORMATION:
In order to provide coverage on both sides of Poor Mountain, Roanoke County uses two
antenna sites for the 800 MHz public safety radio system. The County owns one of the
sites and the tower on it, but is using a tower on another site for which there is no current
valid lease. Discussions with the owner of that property have not resulted in any
agreement for continued use of the tower and site. The Virginia Department of State Police
has agreed to permit Roanoke County to install the equipment on its nearby tower site,
without charge. The State Police site will provide comparable coverage for the radio
system.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There will be a one time charge by the Department of State Police for installation of the
County's equipment, which should not exceed $2,000. The Public Safety Team has
approved payment of this fee out of the E-911 fund.
.. ..

ALTERNATIVES:
1. Approve the execution of the attached Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the
Virginia Department of State Police by the County Administrator or his designee.
2. Direct the Department of General Services to attempt to negotiate a lease with the
owner of the tower currently housing the County's equipment or with another property
owner on Poor Mountain.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of Alternative # 1.
MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING

2. This memorandum will become effective upon signatures of both parties and
extend until such time as DSP or RCC gives the other party a six (6) month
advance written notification of their desire to terminate. Upon termination of this
MOU, RCC agrees to remove all equipment and personal property at its own
expense within (120) days.
3. RCC shall make no monetary payment in the form of rent. RCC will pay all
installation charges and all cost of servicing and maintaining its own equipment.

behalf of RCC.
5. RCC will assume responsibility for handling and coordinating the licensing of
the RCC equipment with the Federal Communications Commission.
6. DSP will approve all antennas and equipment to be placed on the DSP tower
and building for the purposes of tower loading and frequency interference
reasons.

acknowledged that from time to time situations will arise which are outside the
general scope of this document. It is incumbent upon both parties to discuss
these situations and reach a mutually agreeable resolution to the agreement. The
parties will review the MOU as needed and recommend changes to the

SUMMARY OF INFORMATION:
A work session was held on June 7, 2005 for the purpose of discussing the policies and
procedures related to Roanoke County's use of economic development incentives. Much
of the discussion was based on the current Public Private Partnership (PPP) Policy, which
was last amended in 2002. After discussion, the Board requested several changes to the
Policy. It was further agreed that with these revisions, the PPP Policy should remain as
guidelines for determining the appropriateness and level of County financial participation in
economic development projects. A draft of the revised policy is attached and the following
is a summary of the suggested amendments.
1. Deleted the detailing of "Target Industries" under the Guiding Principles Section on
page 2 of the policy.
2. Deleted the use of Worksheets 1 and 2 to evaluate eligibility of projects on page 3 of the
policy.
3. Deleted the ability of the County Administration to administer incentives under $50,000
without Board approval on pages 3 and 4 of the policy.
4. Deleted the reference to maintaining the utility funds for water and sewer due to the
creation of the Western Virginia Water Authority.
E-Ç-
5. Made reference to the Industrial Development Authority and their fiduciary role in the
payment of incentives on pages 1 and 5 of the Policy.
6. Request the Roanoke County Industrial Development Authority to amend their name to
the Roanoke County Economic Development Authority to more accurately reflect their
mission.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Since most incentives are administered on a "reimbursable basis" and are therefore paid
out only after new tax revenues are generated and the incentives have been budgeted for,
there will be only positive effects on the County budget.
AL TERNATIVES:
1. Amend the PPP Policy as suggested under the summary and detailed in the draft of
the 2005 revised policy.
2. Make no changes to the policy.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends Alternative 1 which would amend the PPP Policy as outlined in the 2005
draft document.

Œevised June 2005) _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ ___ ~ -- -{ Deleted: (Revised JUDt' 2002)~
Introduction
The County established a Public-Private Partnership Program to further its economic
development mission - to design and implement innovative programs and services that leverage
community assets, create wealth & prosperity, and embrace the region's future. The distribution
of various incentives in the fonn of County funds or other assets is the intent of the Program.
These distributions are made to qualifying enterprises or organizations to encourage them to
create or retain jobs and investment in the County and the region. This Policy establishes a
framework by which the Program can be equitably and efficiently administered.
Guidin2 Principles
The Public- Private Partnership Policy is developed and applied in concert with the County's
Business Plan for Economic Development. The Policy reflects the County's commitment to
attract and retain quality jobs and investment and to maintain strong working relationships with
its public and private sector partners. This is an investment Program, whereby the County seeks
to ensure a reasonable return on its investment of funds or other assets as measured by tax
revenues and quality jobs created ang,_r~~ail!esl~ _ __ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ ~ _ _ - '~eted: or

Financial incentives offered by Roanoke CountyT and adlninistered h-the Roanoke .Co~~ty _ _ _ - {Deleted:
.Industrial Development Authority originate from the tax revenues paid by citizens, visitors, and
businesses in the County. The Public Private Partnership Policy seeks to reinvest some portion
of these tax revenues to assist in the economic growth of the County.
During the initial site search for a location or the expansion of an existing facility, Roanoke
County and a business or industry develops a partnership designed to accommodate the specific
needs of the project. Accordingly:
1. Roanoke County may fund a portion or all of development costs for public
improvements, such as roads and public utilities, off site regional stonn water
management facilities, and/or utility connection fees for water and sewer for a qualifying
industry or business that meets the evaluation criteria for Public Private Partnerships.
2. Roanoke County may encourage the creation or retention of jobs of qualifying companies
within the community, which hire employees at wages/salaries at or above the median
area rate for that occupation through assistance with employment training.
3. Roanoke County may support tourism related industry/destination activities that provide
range of services and attractions for visitors from outside the Roanoke Valley that will
create employment opportunities and tax revenues, and enhance our image as a viable
community.

employees may be considered. Amounts and priority of funding will depend on the salary/wage
rate to be paid, the number of permanent full time jobs created, relocated or retained, and
availability of matching funds from the state of Virginia and federal funds.
Operatinf! Procedures
The Director of Economic Development is responsible for administering this Policy and shall
coordinate with the Director of Finance to establish a system to account for funds committed and
expended. A business or industry may apply for County assistance by addressing a letter (on

From: David Holladay, Senior Planner
Date: May 31 , 2005
Re: Proposed Amendments to Private Kennel Ordinances
The Roanoke County Board of Supervisors has directed county staff to review the County Code
with respect to private kennels~
On April 26, 2005 the Board of Supervisors held a work session to discuss concerns regarding
private kennels. During the work session, the Board discussed the current limit of two dogs for
homes without private kennel permits, as well as the perceptions surrounding the use of the word
"kennel". The Board and staff discussed raising the limit to three or four dogs, and there was
general support to raising the number to three. The Board requested a second work session on
the topic, and asked staff to prepare several alternative code changes for their consideration.
The second work session was held on May 10, 2005. For the work session, staff prepared a
report outlining the issues surrounding private kennels, and offering several alternative choices
for code amendments~ As you may recall from the discussion during the work session,
ordinances regulating private kennels are found in two chapters of the Roanoke County Code:
Chapter 5, Animals and Fowl, and Appendix A, Zoning Ordinance. Amendments to the zoning
ordinance will be reviewed by the Commission and approved by the Board of Supervisors.
Changes to the animal code would be reviewed and approved only by the Board of Supervisors.
The Planning Commission public hearing on these amendments is scheduled for July 5, 2005,
and the Board of Supervisors public hearing is scheduled for July 26, 2005.
After the second work session, the County Attorney drafted proposed amendments to both codes.
Copies of the first draft, dated May 13, 2005, are attached for your review. The proposed
amendments address the following four changes:
1) Raise the number of dogs allowed without a private kennel pennit from two to three.
2) Change the tenn "Private Kennel" to "Multiple Dog Permit".
3) Remove the one-acre minimum lot size for "multiple dog permits".
4) Remove Private Kennel from the uses allowed by right in the R2 zoning district and
add Multiple Dog Pennit to uses allowed by special use pennit in the R2 district.

COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR'S COMMENTS:
SUMMARY OF INFORMATION:
On April 26, 2005 the Roanoke County Bo.ard qf Supervisors held a work session to discuss
concerns regarding private kennels. During the work session, the Board discussed the current limit
of two dogs for homes without private kennel permits, as well as the perceptions surrounding the
use of the word "kennel". The Board and staff discussed raising the limit to three or four dogs, and
there was general support to raising the number to three~ The Board requested a second work
session on the topic, and asked staff to prepare several alternative code changes for their
consideration. They also requested staff to research other jurisdictions that allow more than two
dogs for information regarding enforcement. Finally the Board discussed increasing the number of
animal control officers to assist in the enforcement of the animal nuisance problems.
The problem is the limit on the number of dogs in the R-1 zoning district, and the requests by dog
owners to increase that number through the issuance of a private kennel permit. Only 4 Special Use
Permit applications have been heard by the Board of Supervisors since 2002, and only 2 of these
applications have been approved.
BACKGROUND:
Existing Roanoke County Codes Regulating Dog Ownership
Ordinances regulating private kennels are found in two chapters of the Roanoke County Code:
Chapter 5, Animals and Fowl, and Appendix A, Zoning Ordinance. Excerpts from these codes are
provided below. Copies of the entire relevant code sections are attached for your reference.
1
~-
Animal Control Code
Section 5, Article II. Dogs, Cats and Other Animals defines "Kennelu and sets the limitation on
number of dogs kept per dwelling unit.
Section 5-21 defines IIKennelu as irAn enclosure or structure used to house, shelter, restrain,
exercise, board, breed, handle or otherwise keep or care for more than two (2) dogs four (4) months
of age or older, from which they cannot escape: The enclosure or structure shall not mean a
dwelling or a fence used to demarcate a property line."
Section 5-24 (a) states: liThe harboring or keeping of more than two (2) dogs over four (4) months
of age per dwelling unit shall be unlawful, unless a private kennel license has been issued pursuant
to this article."
Zonina Ordinance
The Zoning Ordinance defines Private Kennel, regulates where private kennels are allowed, and
provides additional use and design standards for private kennels.
Section 30-29-2 Residential Use Types defines Private Kennel as "The keeping, breeding, raising,
showing or training of three (3) or more dogs over four (4) months of age for personal enjoyment of
the owner or occupants of the property, and for which commercial gain is not the primary objective."
Private kennels are allowed by Special Use Permit in the R 1 zoning district. When issuing the
permit, the Board of Supervisors usually sets the limit on the number of dogs for the private kennel.
In all the Agricultural districts, and the R2 district, private kennels are allowed by right.
Private Kennel Issues
Number of Docs Allowed
During the April 26 work session, the Board and County Staff discussed the option of raising the
number of dogs allowed from two to three or perhaps four. This discussion was prompted following
a public hearing in March 2005 in which the Board granted a Special Use Permit for a private kennel
on property zoned R1. The permit was requested by new residents to the County who had moved
from another Virginia locality that did not limit numbers of dogs. That approved permit was for four
dogs. Several previous requests for private kennels have been denied by the Board of Supervisors.
129 kennel licenses were issued in 2002, 99 in 2003, but only 81 were issued in 2004. Of all these
licenses only 4 Special Use Permit applications have been heard by the Board of Supervisors, and
onry 2 have been approved. Whether the Special Use Permits are approved or denied, the
legislative and public hearing process triggers strong emotions with dog owners as well as with
neighbors.
"Private Kennel" as a Defined Type of land Use
The Board also raised the question of the use of the word "kennel" to describe private dog
ownership. In many instances, the advertising and general notification of a public hearing for a
2
f='- J
Private KenneJ could cause neighbors to perceive that a large commercial operation is proposed for
boarding and breeding dogs. The public hearings are only for property zoned R 1 with a minimum
size of one acre. In other zoning districts that arrow private kennels by right, a review by the Board
of Supervisors is not required, and the term "kennel" is not an issue. The term "kennel" is found in
both relevant County codes, and also has ties to enabling State code. Any changes to the term
"kennel" would have to be made to both codes, and not in conflict with State enabling legislation.
Leaislative Process of Obtainina a SDecial Use Permit
A common theme surrounding the two issues of the numbers of dogs and the definition of "kenner
is the requirement for a special use permit. These special use permits are only required in the R 1
residential zoning district. All other existing private kennel permits have been issued through an
administrative procedure, and has not been an issue before the Board. If the root problem with
private kennels arises from how they are regulated in the R 1 zoning district, then that is where the
Board should focus their attention for amending the code. If the number of dogs allowed without a
private kennel permit is raised from two to three or four, then the requirement for a special use
permit could be removed from the R1 zoning district. Or all references to private kennels could be
removed from the zoning ordinance. However, as stated above, all other private kennel permits in
agricultural zoning districts (and the R2 district) are issued through an administrative procedure. For
example, if a citizen lived on a larger tract of land zoned AG3, he/she would have a right to keep a
group of hunting dogs on their property, provided they paid required annual license taxes for each
dog tag, and kennel tax for a private kennel. If changes are made to the zoning ordinance to
remove private kennels, other changes to the animal control code may be necessary in order to
preserve the right to keep multiple dogs in the agricultural zoning districts.
AL TERNATIVES:
1) Increase number of dogs allowed to either 3 or 4, and amend the Zoning Ordinance by changing
the name of "private kennel" to "Additional Dog Permif' or "Multiple Dog Perm it".
achieve the Încrease in the number of dogs allowed that was discussed;
legislative process remains intact for issuing Special Use Permits in R1 district;
change the term "kennel" to "Additional Dog Permit" or "Multiple Dog Permit" and avoid
possible misconceptions about the use and term.
2) Increase number of dogs allowed to either 3 or 4, and remove Private Kennel from uses allowed
by Special Use Permit in the R1 district, and use by right in R2 district
achieve the increase that was discussed;
legislative process ceases for Special Use Permits;
number of dogs aUowed in residential districts would have an absolute, simple limit, with no
opportunity of having more than the limit;
rights and procedures for keeping more dogs in agricultural districts with an administratively
issued private kenne' permit would not be affected.
3) Increase the number of dogs allowed to either 3 or 4, and remove all references to Private
3
F-¡
Kennel from the zoning ordinance.
achieve the increase that was discussed;
remove the process entirely from the zoning review and approval, and have dog ownership
regulated solely by the animal control code;
some changes to the animal control code may be necessary in order to preserve existing rights
of multiple dog ownership in the agricultural districts.
4) Take no action at this time.

Permit granted in 1994 (Ordinance No. 32294-8). The growth of the Churc~ has utilized
the full sp"ace within the present facility. Because of the anticipated future growth of the
Church, the Church would like to expand its present facility in order to carry on its
various ministries and missions. The expansion of the Church on the property is
feasible and is in accordance with the Ordinance as churches are a permitted use, with
a Special Exception, in the present zoning category.
Please explain how the project conforms to the general guidelines and policies
contained in the Roanoke County Community Plan.
The project conforms to the General Guidelines and Policies contained in the Roanoke
County Community Plan by locating a church facility within the present zoning and land
use designation. The property is a large parcel of land and the proposed expansion will
require very minimal encroachments from the existing use upon the remainder of the
property.
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.
The proposed project will have no negative impact on any of the public facilities
described herein. The property is already located for a church and this will merely be
an expansion.

SUMMARY OF INFORMATION:
The creation of the Western Virginia Water Authority (WVWA) transferred many of the
duties and responsibilities for the regulation of public sewer and water systems from the
County to WVWA. This transfer of responsibility and authority rendered numerous
provisions of the County Code unnecessary. This proposed ordinance amends and/or
repeals many provisions in Chapter 18. Sewers and Sewer Disposal and Chapter 22.
Water of the Roanoke County Code.
These amendments have been reviewed by staff and counsel for the WVWA. Their
suggestions and recommendations have been incorporated into the revised draft
ordinance.
The following sections are recommended for repeal or amendment. A brief explanation
in support of this recommendation follows the various Code sections:
1. §18-2 requires "adequate sanitary facilities" for carnivals, circuses and similar
exhibitions. This section is redundant and is more specifically addressed under the
Roanoke County zoning ordinance. Under the zoning ordinance Uoutdoor gatherings"
include a special use permit requirement as well as additional design and use standards
(see §30-87-3) including a detailed plan to address sanitation facilities, public safety
requirements, traffic, parking, lighting, etc.
1
H-
2. §§ 18-3, 18-31 through 18-33. These sections refer to the County's manual of
regulations and policies entitled "Design and Construction Standards for Sanitary Sewer
Facilities, "and inspections. These requirements are now the duties and responsibilities
of the WVW A.
3. §§ 18-61 through 18-67. These standards for private sewage disposal systems
have been supplanted by State Health Department regulations. It is recommended that
§§ 18-62 and 18-63, which deal with the creation or expansion of new water systems,
§§ 18-63.1, which deals with the procedures and fees for the issuance of septic tank
permits, and 18-64, which requires a mandatory hookup to public or private sewer within
300 feet be retained. § 18-64 is amended to make reference to the Board's
concurrence in WVWA's mandatory connection policy under § 15.2-5137. The Board
adopted a resolution of concurrence for this policy on December 7, 2004.
4. §§ 18-91 through 18-102 deal with the specifications for septic tank systems.
These provisions have been supplanted by State Health Department regulations.
5. §§ 18-131 through 18-135. These sections deal with pit privies. These
provisions have been supplanted by State Health Department regulations.
6. §§ 18-151 through 18-176 impose sewer use standards. The County was
obliged to adopt these sewer use standards by the Commonwealth of Virginia
Department of Environmental Quality, and the City of Roanoke in order for the County
be able to use the regional sewage treatment plan. It is necessary to maintain these
sewer use standards in order to provide legal authority to pursue criminal penalties for
violators of these sewer use standards; however, certain provisions should be amended
to reference WVWA, and the provisions with respect to charges and fees should be
repealed since that is now the responsibility of WVWA.
Various definitions in § 18-151 should be amended to insert WVWA into the definition of
the "control authority" and to substitute WVWA for "county," when it is appropriate based
upon the context and meaning. The amendments clarify that the "Utility Director" is an
official of the WVWA.
7. § 18-168 Schedule of charges, § 18-169 Adjustment of charges, § 18-170 Billing
and payment of charges are recommended to be repealed since these are more the
responsibilities of the WVWA.
8. §§ 18-172 Authority to disconnect service and 18-173 Notice of Violation are
recommended to be amended to delete the referen"ce to the County and insert WVWA.
These are now the responsibilities of the WVWA.
9. § 22-1 is recommended for repeal since the provIsions dealing with water
impoundments and dam safety are now included in the State Code.
2
\-i- - I
Several amendments to § 22-2 Definitions are recommended to clarify that the Utility
Director is an official of the WVWA.
10. § 22-3 which references the utility director is recommended for repeal since that
position no longer exists in the County.
11. § 22-5 is recommended for repeal since it is addressed in the Countyts
subdivision ordinance.
12. § 22-6 Reduction of rates is recommended for repeal since this is now the
responsibility of WVWA.
13. §§ 22-31 through 22-41 are recommended for repeal since this now the
responsibility of WVWA.
14. § 22-71 is recommended to be retained in the County Code since it addresses
mandatory connections to the water system. It is recommended that § 22-71 be
amended to make reference to the concurring resolution adopted by the Board on
December 7t 2004, concerning the WVWA's mandatory connection policy. It is
recommended that § 22-72 be retained in the County Code since it provides for criminal
penalties for defacing or injury water system property.
15. §§ 22-73 through 22-88 are recommended for repeal since these sections
address water rates, collection of unpaid bills, liens for water and sewer charges, etc.
These are responsibilities of the Water Authority.
16. §§ 22-200 through 22-206 are recommended for repeal. These sections address
water supply emergencies. This is now the responsibility of WVWA.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the Board favorably consider the adoption of this ordinance.
Adopting this ordinance will have the effect of cleaning up the Roanoke County Code by
eliminating unnecessary provisions.
The Board may want to consider amending §§ 18-64 and 22-71 in order to make them
more consistent in their approach to mandatory sewer and water connections. § 18-64
requires connection to sewer if the building is within 300 feet of the sewer line. § 22-71
requires a water connection to buildings on lots less than 40,000 square feet and less
than 150 feet road frontage if the water line is at the lot line or in a street or easement
adjoining the lot line. The Board may want to consider linking mandatory water and
sewer connections to Comprehensive Plan designations or zoning classifications. Staff
is recommending amending these two sections by incorporating a reference to the
Board's resolution adopted on December 7, 2004, which approved the WVWA's
mandatory connection policies under § 15.2-5137 of the Code of Virginia.

SUMMARY OF INFORMATION:
Using funds from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation llStaying Connected" program, the
Library of Virginia has offered $8,000 training grants to each of nine public library regions in
Virginia. The grants specify that funds must be used to assist the libraries in providing staff
training on the use and support of public access computing. Because Roanoke County
Public Library (RCPL) already has an established training structure in place and has
previously offered technology-related instruction to the staff of area libraries, the Library of
Virginia and members of the Roanoke Valley Library consortium asked that RCPL act as
grant applicant and fiscal agent for this region. The conditions of the grant require that
RCPL submit training proposal(s) before funds can be used, an evaluation form for each
event, and an annual report documenting expenditures. Training must be completed by
January 10,2007, and funds expended by April 30, 2007.
FISCAL IMPACT:
No additional funding will be required.

SUMMARY OF INFORMATION:
In the past, the prosecution of criminal cases, including traffic infractions, misdemeanors,
and preliminary hearings of felony cases, for the Town of Vinton were heard in the Vinton
municipal building. Beginning July 1,2004, the judges of the General District Court wanted
these cases heard in the Roanoke County courthouse in the City of Salem. This
eliminated the need for the judges, clerks, and sheriff's deputies to travel to Vinton for these
cases. In addition, by staying in the Roanoke County courthouse, the clerks had available
computer access.
While the cases were in Vinton, they were handled by the Town's Attorney; however with
the move to the County Courthouse, the travel became prohibitive for the Town Attorney.
The Town of Vinton approached the County Commonwealth's Attorney's, Randy Leach,
about handling the Town cases through his office. An agreement was reached to provide
these services to the Town for $6,000 annually beginning July 1,2004. This money is paid
as a salary supplement to the four Assistant Commonwealth's Attorneys, who added these
cases to their existing workload.
The initial contract was for a one year period from July 1, 2004 through June 30, 2005. The
arrangement has worked well for both parties, and they would like to renew the contract for
another year with the same terms.
\J:- 'õ>
FISCAL IMPACT:
The Town will pay the County $6,000 to provide legal services for the 2005-2006 fiscal
year. This money will be paid to the four Assistant Commonwealth's Attorneys as a
supplement of $53.60 per pay period. The $6,000 will also cover the employer portion of
the FICA tax for these employees.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the following:
1. Approve the attached contract for the County Commonwealth's Attorney Office to
provide legal services to the Town of Vinton for the 2005-2006 fiscal year.
2. Appropriate revenue of $6,000 from the Town of Vinton and appropriate increased
expenditure of $61000 for salary supplements and FICA for the Commonwealth's
Attorney's Office in 2005-2006.

The petitioner, Joel Baker, Roanoke County Building Commissioner, updated the

commission that a follow-up inspection be performed within the next thirty days to
verify completion and occupancy of the home. He also recommended that, because
the blighted conditions included site conditions other than the building, another
inspection be performed in approximately 90 days to ascertain that the occupants
properly maintain the property.

Re: Update regarding 3821 Colony Lane
I visited the property today in preparation of the continuation of the hearing at the
commission meeting on June 7, 2005.Work seems to have progressed and several of the
required inspections have been scheduled for this week. The exterior is all but complete
and the interior appears to be approximately 50% complete at the moment. I spoke with
Ms. Shelton's son and he indicated that the original contractor had not been reliable and
he was now performing the work himself. Assuming the work to this point passes the
upcoming inspections, he intends to proceed with completing the insulation and drywall.
It is possible that the property could be 90 to 95% complete by the time of the meeting. I
will visit the jobsite again immediately prior to the meeting and be prepared to inform the
commission of the most recent starns and make a recommendation.
At the suggestion of the commission at the recent workshop, a reminder letter was sent to
Ms. Shelton. A copy is attached for the record.

Consideration of Blighted Property
3821 Colony Lane
Request:

Proffered/Suggested
Conditions:
None
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The Board of Supervisors recently adopted a Spot Blight Abatement Policy Program designed
to deal with individual properties that have become a detriment to the surrounding
neighborhood. Under the program, the County is authorized,. pursuant to a plan approved by
the Board of Supervisors following a public hearing, to repair, or to acquire and repair a
property designated as blighted under the' program. The County may recover its costs in
repairing the property either from the owner or from the proceeds from the sale of the property.
The program allows an owner of blighted property to avoid any repair or other action by the
County if an acceptable work plan for the elimination of the conditions that created the blight is
prepared and implemented. In the case of 3821 Colony Lane, staff has determined that the
property meets the conditions for blight and has initiated the abatement procedure. The
property has suffered severe damage from a fire that occurred on February 6, 2003. The
property has remained in this state since that time and has continued to deteriorate. Notice was
given to the owner of the property on November 30, 2004 advising that a preliminary
determination of blight had been made and the owner was required to respond within 30 days
of the notice with a plan to abate and correct the blighted conditions. No response was
received from the owner. The owner currently has a building permit to make repairs to the
property and has been removing damaged materials from the structure. However, because no
response was received, staff is proceeding with the process and has requested a public
hearing before the Roanoke County Planning Commission to consider condition of the property
and make recommendations to the Board of Supervisors
1. APPLICABLE REGULATIONS
Roanoke County Spot Blight Abatement Policy contains the following elements:
. designation of the property as "blighted"
· attempts to work with the property ovvner to correct the conditions
· notice to the owner that official action will be taken unless an acceptable corrective plan is
submitted.
· notice to adjoining property owners and local civic organizations
· consideration and public hearing by the Planning Commission
· action by the Board of Supervisors
· implementation of an approved plan by the County to correct the blighted conditions

8-2
2. ANALYSIS OF EXISTING CONDITIONS
Background - The property has a history of code violations with the County prior to the fire in
February, 2003 that caused the current damage. The Planning and Zoning office has cited the
owner several times for violations of the zoning ordinance related to improper storage. The Fire
Department has documented through photographs that improper storage had continued up to the
actual date of the fITe. The fire investigator has commented that there was an unusually high
quantity of storage in the building as well which can best be described as "hoarding". The
building has not been occupied since the fire. Refer to the Fire Investigation Report which is
attachment #8.
A county inspector spoke with the owner's son shortly after the fire and advised that the building
was required to be boarded to prevent entry. This was accomplished in a matter of days but, since
that time the owner has failed to maintain the security of the building and several complaints have
been received concerning neighborhood children entering the structure at various times. Reports
were also received from the Police Department confirming this matter. On multiple occasions
county employees returned to the site and re-attached the boards that had been applied to secure
the building only to have them removed again by persons entering th~ building.
The owner obtained a building pennit to repair the fire damage on March 12, 2003 but no
inspections have been requested for the repairs and the pennit is currently subject to suspension
due to inactivity.
Prior to requesting the public hearing, a courtesy letter dated February 2, 2005 (Attachment #4)
was sent to the owner stating that no response to the original notice had been received and the
County was proceeding with the abatement process as described in the official notice. We
received a phone call from the owner's son a few days later. We discussed the matter further and
advised that if he would get a plan submitted within the next several days we would recommend
that the issue be tabled. He stated he would submit a plan but as of this writing no plan has been
received.
TopographyNegetation - Property is relatively level and is improved with the single family
residence that is the subject of this report. It is bordered on the north by Colony Lane, on the
south by Route 419 and on the east and west sides by similar residential properties. This property
and adjoining properties are zoned R-1.
Surrounding Neighborhood - This is a very pleasant neighborhood with small to medium sized
homes that are well kept and in generally good condition. Most of the homes in the immediate
vicinity were built in the mid to late 50's and are assessed with a value of$110,000.OO plus. The
property identified in this report is currently assessed with a value of$58,700.00. The Real Estate
Valuation Office reports that adjustments have been made to nearby properties as a result of the
ongoing issues with this property.
3. PLAN OF ACTION
Staff has prepared a plan outlining the steps we believe that are needed to return this property to a
useable condition. The plan is included as attachment #5.
2
8-2
4. CONFORMANCE WITH ROANOKE COUNTY COMMUNITY PLAN
The property has a designation of Neighborhood Conservation in the current Roanoke County
Community Plan. The objective being to preserve and enhance the existing character of
established neighborhoods. Returning the property to a viable use as a single family home is in
compliance with the objective of the plan and current zoning.
5. STAFF CONCLUSIONS
The property has a long history of code violations and has been the subject of many complaints as
well as prior legal action by the county. The property has remained donnant since being
substantially damaged by fire. The property has remained both an eyesore and a safety hazard to
the neighborhood for over two years. The property should be confirmed as blighted and a
recommendation made to the Board of Supervisors to implement the correction plan as prepared
by staff.

1) Inventory, document, pack and remove all personal belongings in the property and remove to a
county storage facility.
2) (Alternative) Rent one or more storage lockers to store personal items for a period not to exceed six
months at which time the owner would resume responsibility for the payments.
3) Have independent engineering finn evaluate structural members for integrity and provide \VfÏtten
report.
4) Have independent engineering finn evaluate all plumbing, mechanical and electrical components
and fixtures to determine code compliance and operability. Repair/replace as needed
5) Clean and sanitize interior of the structure.

Shelton Enforcements: 1999 - 2005
Complaints received by phone during 2000-2001
Initial enforcement actions involved education, and service support.
This was done during visits to property and by phone requests to Roanoke County
General Services Department for bulk waste scheduling/freeloader trailer scheduling.
Additional service assistance included the provision of a dump truck and loading help
from a Roanoke County Community Development Department crew in February of 2001.
The result for the neighborhood was that the property ovvner occupant did not appear to
be motivated to maintain or continue improvements to the property and the conditions;
deteriorated to an unacceptable level. Examples of these problems included like trash,
debris and outdoor storage of household goods.
A concerned neighbors or community meeting was held at Cave" Spring Fire Station:
August 2001. Discussions were held V\lÏth the neighbors and V\lÏth Roanoke County
Planning and Zoning Staff and with Roanoke County Health Department staff. A
deteIDÚnation was made at that time to work together to improve the property.
Inspections occurred during August and September 2001 (including the listing below)
Date reported: 9/24/2001
Date inspected: 9/24/2001
Tax map number: 077.18-02-20
Address: 3821 Colony Lane
Name: 1\1s. Barbara N. Shelton
No response from property ovvner; court action planned for November 2001
Contacted neighbors for available court dates; 1 complaining party had moved, 1 party
did not want to be the only one to testify) and the third neighbor would not respond to
multiple phone messages left at home.
Legal actions postponed
A new round of complaints received by Roanoke County officials during early 2003 and
a new inspection schedule was set up. Roanoke County continued to encourage the
cleanup activities. The county's General Services Department provided a freeloader
trailer for February 26, 2003.
On February 6, 2003, a fire occurred at the address of 3821 Colony Lane, the home of
Barbara N. Shelton. The Roanoke County Community Development Department crew
provided service assistance to the fire cleanup with the provision of a dump truck on
March 7 2003.

InfonnatÎon became known in the neighborhood regarding the FebruarY 6, 2003 fire and
that was that there was no insurance policy to protect the property ovvner and provide for
repairs to the structure. Not only did repairs not occur to the property but the debris and
outdoor storage of household goods continued
An official letter of violation was sent by certified mail on June 17, 2003 and cow1 action
was initiated on July 17, 2003. The case was scheduled for August 21, 2003.
General District Court granted a 30 day extension to get the property cleaned up and the
case was scheduled to be reviewed on September 22, 2003.
The review of the case determined that the property was still in non-compliance and 1\15.
Shelton was found guilty and ordered to pay court costs and a fine.
General District Court decision was appealed to the Roanoke County Circuit Cow1 and
the case was scheduled for November 18, 2003. Circuit Court took the charges under
advisement and granted an extension to get the property cleaned up and the case was
scheduled to be reviewed on December 16, 2003. A second extension was granted as a
result of the review on December 16, 2003 and a final review set for January 20, 2004.
One of the charges was dismissed because of compliance and the other two charges were
merged for the final review in January 2004.
( !
Inspections of the property indicated that the all materials were stored inside and/or
removed from the premises and that the debris materials had been cleaned up. The
property was in compliance but a guilty verdict was rendered and a fine would be
imposed if the property was to become non-compliant in the next year.

STAFF·. REPORT
Petitioner: Fralin & Waldron, Inc.
Request: Rezone from AG-3, Agricultural to R-1, Low Density Residential
Location: North of Apple Harvest Drive and Crumpacker Drive, "The Orchards"
Magisterial District: Hollins
Proffered/Suggested Conditions:
1. Total lot subdivision count will not exceed 65 lots and will be generally consistent with the submitted
"Concept Plan Showing Future Sections of The Orchards", dated March 23, 2005, prepared by Lumsden
Associates, PC.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
This is a request to rezone 50 acres from AG-3, Agricultural to R-1, Low Density Residential. The land use
maps designate this property as Neighborhood Conservation and encourage low density single-family
residential development. Petitioners have proffered a maximum of 65 houses. This equates to a density of
1.3 units/acre.
1. APPLICABLE REGULATIONS
1. Site plan review shall be required.
2. R-1, Low Density Residential Section 30-41 of the Roanoke County Zoning Ordinance shall
apply.
2. ANALYSIS OF EXISTING CONDITIONS
This 50-acre tract is a portion of a larger 237 -acre tract that Fralin & Waldron is purchasing. The 50-acre
tract is currently vacant. A majority of the property is rolling fields with the northwestern and southern
portions being wooded. Based on the slope maps of Roanoke County, the 50-acre portion of this tract is
significantly less steep than the remaining property. The 237 -acre tract extends to the ridgeline of Read
Mountain and has approximately 3,000 feet of ridgeline along the northwestern border. At this time, Fralin &
Waldron has no development plans for the remaining acreage.
This property lies adjacent to the existing "Orchards" subdivision - a single-family residential housing
development that has been in development since the 1970's. It also lies to the east of the existing
"LaBellvue" subdivision.
3. ANALYSIS OF PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT
Petitioners are proposing to build a maximum of 65 single-family houses. Ciderhouse Drive, a public road,
would be extended into this new section of "The Orchards" and two new public roads constructed. All roads
end in cul-de-sacs with no access through to the streets of the "LaBellvue" subdivision. Access to this new
section is limited to a single access point on Ciderhouse Drive. Total new traffic generated by the proposed
development is approximately 700 trips/day. Huntridge Road is capable of adequately handling the
proposed trips to be generated by this project. The intersection of Huntridge and Rt. 460 has qualified for a
signal light and VDOT is currently working on obtaining installation funding.
1
8-3
A Western Virginia Water Authority water tank lies within the boundaries of the new subdivision and the
developer will require an easement across this property.
Water and sewer services are available to the proposed development.
No impacts are expected to police, fire or rescue services to the proposed site.
Petitioners are not anticipating work on this new section to be commenced for at least one to two years.
School children generated by this proposed development would attend Bonsack Elementary and William
Byrd Middle and High Schools. Bonsack Elementary currently has a capacity of 400 students and an
attendance of 470 students. In June 2006, construction will begin on eight new classrooms. This
construction project is scheduled to be completed by the end of August 2006.
4. CONFORMANCE WITH ROANOKE COUNTY COMMUNITY PLAN
The land use designation of this property is Neighborhood Conservation. This designation encourages the
orderly development of single-family residential.
5. STAFF CONCLUSIONS
The proposed rezoning conforms with the newly adopted Roanoke County land use plan and is a logical
extension of single-family residential development. The timeline for developing this new section of "The
Orchards" fits in well with the planned expansion of Bonsack Elementary school. The installation of a traffic
signal light at the intersection of Huntridge and Rt. 460 will improve the flow of traffic at that busy
i nte rs e ctio n .
Petitioners have proffered the following: Total lot subdivision count will not exceed 65 lots and will be
generally consistent with the submitted "Concept Plan Showing Future Sections of The Orchards" dated
March 23, 2005, prepared by Lumsden Associates, PC.

the former "Chopstick's Restaurant" site. The .467 acre site is currently zoned C-2. The property is designated as
Core in the Future Land Use Map based on the 2005 Comprehensive Plan. The Core designation encourages high-
density commercial and residential development.
1. APPLICABLE REGULATIONS
The Roanoke County Zoning Ordinance defines an "Automobile dealership, used" as "any lot or
establishment where three or more used motor vehicles, including automobiles, trucks, and motorcycles are
displayed at one time for sale." Used Automobile dealerships are allowed in C-2 zoned districts with a
Special Use Permit per Section 30-85-4(8). The general standards section reads as follows:
1. Outdoor display areas in conjunction with automobile sales shall be constructed of the same materials
required for off-street parking areas as required in Public Street and Parking Design Standard and
Specifications.
2. A ten-foot planting strip shall be provided adjacent to any public street right-of-way. Within this planting
strip, one large deciduous, large evergreen or small deciduous tree shall be planted every thirty (30)
linear feet. Such planting materials shall otherwise comply with the landscaping requirements
contained in Section 30-92 of the Zoning Ordinance.
3. The storage and/or display of motor vehicles in the planting strip required above shall be prohibited.
4. Exterior display or storage of new or used automobile parts is prohibited.
5. Any vehicle which is missing major mechanical or body parts or have been substantially damaged shall
1
8-4
be placed in a storage yard. The storage yard shall be fully screened from public view and shall be set
back at least one hundred (100) feet from any adjoining residential district.
· If the Special Use Permit is approved, a site plan review will be required to ensure compliance with all
county ordinances and state codes.
· VDOT has the right to enforce any commercial entrance regulations and require any permits to the site
to verify compliance with state code requirements for the change of use.
· Any changes to external lighting fixtures must comply with section 30-94 of the Zoning Ordinance.
2. ANALYSIS OF EXISTING CONDITIONS
Backaround - According to the Real Estate Assessment data the building on the site was built in 1969. The
land use is for family restaurant. Chopsticks Restaurant was the most recent operation on the site.
Applicants Business History - The applicant has been involved in several start-up businesses including a
mail distribution company, a Real Estate Brokerage firm, and a real estate appraisal company. He has
never operated a full-time automobile dealership or been employed as a full-time automobile salesman.
However, he has privately bought and sold used automobiles since the mid to late nineties. He wishes to
operate a full-time used automobile business on the Chopsticks site. The hours of operation for the use
would be Monday - Friday 9 a.m. - 6 p.m. and Saturdays from 9 a.m. - 1 p.m. Additionally, the applicant
proposes that the lot will be used for sales only; no automobile services will be placed on the site. Any
future changes to the site would be proposed via site plan and include replacing the current signage,
installation of additional parking lot lighting, reconfiguring the current sign lighting, and parking lot
improvements. The structure itself would be used for office use only and the applicant discussed modifying
the building in the future to accommodate on site automobile detailing. If the automobile detailing use is
added a site plan review may be required.
TopoaraphvNeaetation - This site has an existing rear buffer on the backside of the property which consists
of mature pine trees and therefore no additional landscaping is required. The front of the site will need
landscaping improvements and should be shown during the site review process. Section 30-92 of the
Zoning Ordinance requires the following landscaping: a ten-foot planting strip shall be provided adjacent to
any public street right-of-way. Within this planting strip, one large deciduous, large evergreen or small
deciduous tree shall be planted every thirty (30) linear feet.
Surroundina Neiahborhood - The property is surrounded by commercial and residential land uses. The
north side of the parcel is zoned C-2 and currently occupied by the retail business Super Shoes. To the
west is Brookside Auto Sales a C-2 zoned piece of property that sells used automobiles and recreational
vehicles. Bordering the south side of the parcel is another C-2 zoned parcel occupied by a strip mall that
contains three collectible and hobby-type shops, a jeweler, and a hair salon. The east of the property
resides a R-1 zoned property that has a single family dwelling on it. According to the 1947 plat the area
was originally residential and no changes have been recorded since that year.
3. ANALYSIS OF PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT
Site Lavout/Architecture - The applicant has not proposed any changes in the site or the buildings on the
property at this time.
AccesslTraffic Circulation - According to Anthony Ford the County's Traffic Engineer, " [the ITE Trip
Generation Manual calculations suggest a restaurant use in this location would generate 326 trips per
weekday, while a used car lot would generate 86 trips.]" Therefore the traffic impact on the surrounding
areas would be reduced by the change of use.
2
8-4
Fire & Rescue/Utilities - There will be no impact on the delivery of Fire and Rescue to this site.
4. CONFORMANCE WITH ROANOKE COUNTY COMMUNITY PLAN
This site is in conformance with the Core area designation of the 2005 Land Use Map of the Comprehensive
Plan. The Core designation encourages high density use & the establishment of common characteristics.
5. STAFF CONCLUSIONS
The Core designation of the Comprehensive plan encourages high density use. The proposed used
automobile dealership complies with suitable uses within the Core designation. In addition, Used
Automobile Dealerships is allowable by Special Use Permit within the Co.2 General Commercial zoning
district. A number of site improvements and requirements will need to be made at site plan review including
landscape improvements and on-site accommodations. The applicant has been very compliant throughout
the process. He has said he will make efforts to improve the site during the site plan review process if his
Special Use Permit is approved.
If the Commission is in support of issuing this permit, staff suggests the following conditions:
1. Landscaping shall include a ten-foot planting adjacent to any public street right-of-way. Within this
planting strip, one large deciduous, large evergreen or small deciduous tree shall be planted every

JUSTIFICATION FOR REZONING, SPECIAL USE PERMIT OR WAIVER REQUEST
Appicant
/~tl!AI- l);JS5
The Planning Commission will study rezoning, special use permit or waiver requests to determine the need and justification for the
change in terms of public health, safety, and general welfare. Please answer the following questions as thoroughJy as possible. Use
additional space if necessary.
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.
In light of the fact that this request is for a special use within an already existing zoning, the Roanoke County ordinance
should not be affected. This request is simply compliance with existing regulations.
2. Please explain how the project conforms to the general guidelines and policies contained in the Roanoke County
Community Plan.
The community plan outlines zoning and property use requirements. ThJequest is specifically required in order to comply
with the guidelines of the community plan.
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.
The impact of this proposal will positively affect the subject property by converting a closed/out of business faciJity to an
ongoing concern. This proposal will not adversely affect adjacent properties or the surounding community including
any and all public service facilities. As a used car dealership, automobiles will be parked in an orderly fashion. Less
traffic is expected than that of a restaurant, therefore, the concern of additional traffic count will be diminished. Less
water/sewer demands will be placed on existing services, etc. Overall, the approval of this application will be a positive
impact for the community at this location.

I JUSTIFICATION FOR VARIANCE REQUEST
¿-'Jø,v/g/ W~ bss-
Applicant
The of Zoning Appeals is required by Section 15.2-2309 of the Code of Virginia to consider the following factors before a variance
can be granted. P1ease read the factors 1isted be10w carefully and in your own words, describe ho\v the request meets each factor. If
additional space is needed, use additiona1 sheets of paper.
1. The variance shall not be contrary to the public interest and shall be in harmony with the intended spirit and purpose
of the Zoning Ordinance.
This specia1 use request is not contrary to pub1ic interest. In fact, the porposed use wil1 be of service to public interest.
As a retail operation, goods (cars) wi]] be s01d to the pub1ic. Taxes wi]] be co]]ected and paid. A property that is now vacant
will be occupied. Fina11y, used car sa1es are a1ready an approved use under C2 zoning.
2. The strict application of the zoning ordinance would produce undue hardship; a hardship that approaches
confiscation (as distinguished from a special privilege or convenience) and would prohibit or unreasonably restrict the
use of the property.
At present, the subject is vacant. As a restaruant, the property has fai1ed many times before. Fai1ure to approve this request
potentally sentences the current owner to maintain a property which wi]] not produce any or restricted income. Fai1ure to
approve this request also sentences the community and neighbors to a potentia1 eyesore. Properties such as this suffer from 1ack
of maintenance, become unsight1y and eventually end up as pub1ic nuisances.
3. The hardship is not shared by other properties in the same zoning district or vicinity. Such hardships should be
addressed by the Board of Supervisors as amendments to the Zoning Ordinance.
This statement is correct. The hardship is not shared by other properties in the district. Moreover, and perhaps more
specifically, the hardship is not borne by other properties within sight of the subject property. There are two existig used car
faci1ites within sight of the subject property. Whee1s, Inc. is 10cated across WiJ1iamson Road and 1/2 b10ck south. Brookside
Auto Sa1es is 10cated direct1y across Williamson Road from the subject propety.
4. The variance will not be of a substantial detriment to the adjacent properties or the character of the district.
With two existing used car faci1ities 10cated across the street, the requested specia1 use permit shou1d have no detrimenta1
impact on adjacent properties or the character of the district. We are simp1y requesting the same consideration that has
been aforded to our neighbors.

I CONCEPT PLAN CHECKLIST
A concept plan of the proposed project must be submitted with the application. The concept plan shall graphicaUy depict the
land use change, development or variance that is to be considered. Further, the plan shall address any potential land use or
design issues arising from the request. In such cases involving rezonings, the applicant may proffer conditions to limit the future
use and development of the property and by so doing, correct any deficiencies that may not be manageable by County permitting
regulations.
The concept plan should not be confused with the site plan or plot plan that is required prior to the issuance of a building permit.
Site plan and building permit procedures ensure compliance with State and County development regulations and may require
changes to the initial concept plan. Unless limiting conditions are proffered and accepted in a rezoning or imposed on a special
use permit or variance, the concept plan may be altered to the extent permitted by the zoning district and other regulations.
A concept plan is required with all rezoning, special use penn it, waiver 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 staffma exem t some of the items or su est the addition of extra items, but the followin are considered minimum:

Zoning: C2 Roanoke, V A 24019
The subject property is a comer lot located at 6717 Williamson Road, Roanoke, VA
24019. It is located in the Hollins district. The subject property is a .467 acre parcel that
has a very large parking lot in front, a small grassy area in the rear and on both sides.
The building is a 2,604 square foot single story building with a 620 square foot canopy
over the front of the building. The subject property is not in a flood plan area. There are
8-4
no easements to the property other than nonnal public utility easements and existing
roadway easements. Williamson Road is a major artery passing directly in front of the
subject. Williamson Road is 39 feet wide. Elwood Street passes to the left of the
property. It is 21 feet wide. Directly across the side street of Elwood Street to the left of
the property is Super Shoes. To the right is a miniature strip mall whose address is 6711
Williamson Road. The property to the rear is 121 & 119 Elwood street. This property is
a residential development. Directly across the street are two business properties. One
building is a Laundromat/car lot combination known as Brookside Auto Sales. As noted,
Elwood Street separates the subject property from Super Shoes. The property to the right
which is the miniature strip mall has a paved parking lot as does the subject. Both paved
lots adjoin each other. Obviously, the subject property and the existing car lot and other
business across Williamson Road are separated by Williamson Road itself. The
residential property to the rear of the subject is separated by a line of very tall pine trees.
Standing in the rear of the property, a substantial buffer is created by these pine trees
between the subject and the home in the rear. The home is nearly invisible due to the
thick coverage provided by the line of pine trees.
The plan is to purchase the existing property from Mr. Yuan Fu Kuo. Once
consummated, and pending the award of this special use pennit, a used car dealership
will be established on the existing property with the intent of selling late model used
automobiles. There are two existing used car dealerships across Williamson Road from
the subject. Both dealerships have good curb appeal and offer high end late model
automobiles for sale. The dealership to be established will make every attempt to
compete with those existing businesses on both an aesthetic and product line level. Over
time, some interior changes will be made to the existing interior of the building.
Specifically, removal of restaurant equipment and restructuring the layout of the interior
will be accomplished. The exterior of the building will not be modified. There are two
existing signs; one over the front of the building, and one at the front of the property.
The only changes to the existing signage will be the name of the business.
The parking lot of the subject property has parking spaces already marked and laid out.
Those existing parking spaces will be utilized with little or no changes to the layout of the
lot. There are two entrances to the lot. One from Williamson Road, the other is off
Elwood Street. The Williamson Road entrance is 28 feet wide and the entrance from
Elwood Street is 50 feet wide.
The subject is has public electricity, public water, public sewer and natural gas. There
are no fire hydrants adjacent to the subject property.

The current salary for Board members is $14,246.15. There is an additional annual
compensation for the Chairman of the Board at $1,800 and for the Vice-Chairman at
