IN RE:
PUBLIC HEARING ON INTERIM LAND USE PLAN AND AMENDMENTS TO COMPREHENSIVE
PLAN FOR ROANOKE COUNTY
I
Preceding the public hearing on adoption of an Interim Land Use Plan and
amendments to the Comprehensive Plan for Roanoke County, Chairman Johnson empha-
sized that adoption of the plan does not constitute rezoning and that the plan wil
be used as a guide to the Supervisors in consideration of future rezoning requests

- -
Mrs. Johnson further stated that in all rezoning requests public hearings must be
held before the Planning Commission and Board of County Supervisors at which time
all interested citizens have a right to be present and to be heard.
County Planner Robert W. Hooper made a brief presentation stating that
I
the two items to be considered are:
1. Amendments to the Comprehensive Plan - in light of the recent annexa-
tion decision, Mr. Hooper stated that the main changes to this plan
are due to loss of population resulting from the annexation. He
further advised that it is anticipated that this loss will be made up
by 1980. Some deletion of proposed schools and a few public facili-
ties will be needed within the next 25 years due to annexation.
2. Adoption of Interim Land Use Plan - Mr. Hooper stated that the pur-
pose of this plan is to direct physical development of the County in
accordance with the goals and policies previously adopted by the
Board in 1976. The maps project the amount of land needed to accomo-
date growth expected within the next five to eight years.
Certain residents of Sugar Loaf Farms and Oak Grove subdivisions raised
objections to the proposed high and medium density residential area on Route 419
generally across from the County headquarters library and in the area of Sugar Loaf
Swim and Racquet Club. They requested that said area remain single-family residen-
tial zoning.
I
Another area resident objected to the already traffic congested Route
419 and urged the Board to give consideration to keeping 419 in its present zone
designation of Residential District R-l.
Dr. Harry Poindexter, represening the Oak Grove Civic League, raised
strong objections to commercial development of any kind on 419, to duplexes, and to
multi-family dwellings. He further stated that the proposed plan did not respect
the rights of property owners in the 419 area. Mr. Poindexter said that the plan
as proposed opens the door for medium and high density residential rezonings along
419 such as apartments, townhouses, etc.
Chairman Johnson reiterated her previous statement that the plan is to be
used only as a guideline and is in no way binding.
County Attorney Edward A. Natt further emphasized that the proposed plan
I
is to be used as a guide and does not rezone property. He stated that it is a
policy statement that a particular tract of land is best suited for a certain type
of use. It will act as a tool to aid the Planning Commission and Board in rezoning
decisions in permitting growth and development in Roanoke County.
There being no further comments, the following physical changes to the
Interim Land Use Maps were approved by the Board of County Supervisors this date.
