RESOLUTION NO. 83-151.a STATING THE OPINION OF THE
BOARD WITH REGARD TO FUNDING BY THE STATE
COMPENSATION BOARD
WHEREAS, it is the responsibility of the State Compensation Board to fix
and determine what constitutes a fair and reasonable budget for the participation
of the Commonwealth toward the total cost of the offices of the Commissioner
of Revenue, Treasurer, Commonwealth's Attorney, Sheriff, and all officers elected
pursuant to Section 15.1-40.2 of the Code of Virginia, as amended; and
WHEREAS, those constitutional officers, consisting of the Treasurer,
Commissioner of Revenue, Sheriff, and Commonwealth's Attorney have filed their
budget request, pursuant to Section 14.1-50 of the Code of Virginia, as amended;
and
'7 2
8-23-83
WHEREAS, these constitutional officers have been notified by the
Compensation Board that they were unable to fund all categories (i.e. personnel
salaries, office expenses and capital outlay) due to budgetary constraints placed
on them by the 1983 General Assembly; and
WHEREAS, this reduction in funding will adversely affect the level of
services being provided by the constitutional officers and will result in localities
having to supplement the budgets of constitutional offices by increasing taxes on
the local level; and
WHEREAS, it is the opinion of the Board of Supervisors of Roanoke County
that the funding level fixed by the Compensation Board is neither fair nor reasonable
nor consistent with the policy set forth in House Bill 599 and places an undue
financial burden on the localities to compensate for this shortfall created by the
lack of proper budgetary planning and prioritization in certain service areas funded
by the State; and
WHEREAS, it is the consensus of the Board that a five percent reduction
in funding of the affected constitutional offices is totally unacceptable and
intolerable.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Board of Supervisors of
Roanoke County will seek to restore proper funding through an appeal of the
decision of the Compensation Board through the Circuit Court as provided by
Section 14.1-52 of the Code of Virginia, as amended.

of Roanoke regarding the rate increase applications by Roanoke Valley Cablevision,
and the motion carried by a unanimous voice vote.
Mr. Raymond R. Robrecht, attorney representing Salem Cable
Television was present and reminded the Board that earlier this year a rate
increase was requested. At that time they decided to proceed with proposed
construction and enlargement of the scope of the services. He requested that
their rate request be referred to the Board's Committee. Supervisor Burton moved
that the request be referred to the Cable TV Committee for appropriate action,
and the motion carried by a unanimous voice vote.

At 7:25 p.m. Vice Chairman Nickens called for a brief recess.

been on the people's side; and if they were acting against Roanoke County, he
would have to reevaluate his position. Mr. Terry Vann, 2150 Ruritan Road,
Roanoke informed Mr. Myers that the majority of the people were not in favor
of being a part of the City of Roanoke. Vice Chairman Nickens assured the
citizens that the Board will make every effort to act in their best interest and

IN RE:
PUBLIC BEARINGS
PETITION OF 419 DEVELOPERS, INC. REQUESTING
REZONING FROM R-1 TO B-1 OF A TRACT
CONTAINING 7.956 ACRES AND LOCATED ON THE
WEST SIDE OF ROUTE 419 1/8 MILE NORTH OF THE
INTERSECTION WITH KEAGY ROAD (ALLSTATE
BUILDING) IN THE WINDSOR HILLS MAGISTERIAL
DISTRICT. REQUESTED SO THAT A MEDICAL AND
OFFICE BUILDING WITH RELATED PARKING
FACILITIES BE CONSTRUCTED SUBJECT TO
PROFFERED CONDITIONS.
--Decree in 8- 3-83
packet affir ing
Board's acti n.
APPROVED
Prior to consideration of this matter, Mr. Richard Pattisall, attorney
for the petitioner, presented Amended Proffered Conditions; then he presented
the architect's drawing and requested the rezoning petition be granted. He
explained that they have tried to work out the problems and objections concerning
the height of the building, traffic accessibility, and drainage; and because of the
location, the property is conducive to commercial development rather than single
family development. There are no prospective tenants at the present time for
the proposed professional offices.
8-23-83
8 1
Mr. Bruce Mayer, attorney for the citizens opposing this rezoning,
presented two petitions - one from the residents of the immediate area, and the
other from the Hidden Valley PT A. He explained that dangerous traffic conditions
are the main concern, and the drainage capacity is not sufficient.
Supervisor Burton explained that the Highway Department has rejected
an intersection at McVitty Road and Route 419, that the only possibility for a
road would be at the south end of the property, and that the Highway Department
will not permit an access that does not meet their requirements. She also reported
that after consulting with the Engineering Department, she feels the drainage
problem has been adequately addressed.
Mr. Burl Whitlow, a geologist and President of Geotechnics, Vinton,
elaborated on the topography and drainage. Mr. Howard Worthy, 5535 McVitty
Road, Roanoke, gave a slide presentation outlining the numerous properties for
lease along Route 419 and a movie depicting the traffic flow in the area.
Supervisor Minter asked for any comments from the citizens as to
what they feel would be a better use for this property. Dr. John W. Barnard,
5743 Club Lane (Farmingdale) Roanoke, stated that previous Boards have turned
down this rezoning and that the Zoning Commission turned it down twice. He
suggested a two-story structure would be more more suitable to the topography.
Supervisor Burton stated that the health, safety, and welfare of the
people involved along with the appropriateness of the proposed development in
conjunction with the area was of primary concern to her. Amended Proffered
Condition #6 is the one factor that influenced her the most because it gives the
Board of Supervisors control over the accessibility to the property. Supervisor
Burton moved for acceptance of the petition because she felt residential
development would not be suitable, and in particular because of Item #6 of the
Amended Proffered Conditions.
FINAL ORDER
NOW, THEREFORE BE IT ORDERED that the aforementioned tract
of land, more particularly described below, be rezoned from Residential District R-
1 to Office and Residential District B-1
