MEETING DATE: April 14, 1987 SUBJECT: Safety Belt .Policy COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR' S COMMENTS : Q~,~ii~.t ~~ ~~ .. ~~ / C V SUMMARY OF INFORMATION: The use of lap and shoulder safety belts is an effective device for saving lives and preventing injuries in vehicle accidents. Each year, about 21,000 Americans are killed and 330,000 are seriously injured while driving or riding in the front seats of their cars. Many of these people could be saved if lap and shoulder safety belts were used. The General Assembly of Virginia enacted legislation during the 1987 session requiring certain motor vehicle drivers and passengers to use lap and shoulder safety belts. This legislation has been signed into law by Governor Baliles, with an effective date of January 1, 1988. RECOMMENDATIONS: The Department of Human Resources has developed a Safety Belt Policy which is included as Attached A for your consideration. A draft of this Safety Belt Policy was forwarded to the Employee Advisory Committee and Employee Safety Task Farce Committees for suggestions and recommendations. The Safety Belt Policy was developed after taking into consideration suggestions offered. The recommended penalty for noncompliance with this policy will be considered a Group I Offense, as outlined in Section IVBl of the Employee Handbook, which is included as Attachment B. The staff also recommends that upon adoption an educational program be conducted for all employees, that enforcement of this policy begin on July 1, 1987, and that this policy be incorporated in the Vehicle Management Manual.

Because of its liability for the payment of Workers' Compensation, the county requires the same policy when an employee uses a private vehicle on county business. 2.2 Drivers of buses will be required to wear safety belts; however, passengers will_not be required to wear safety belts. 2.3 This policy shall apply to law enforcement personnel on patrol or in transit, except when circumstances would cause an officer to be unsafe; i.e., positioning to watch a prisoner. 2.4 This policy shall apply to Fire and Rescue personnel, except when rescue squad personnel have to render medical attention to persons being transported in a county rescue vehicle (e.g. ambulance) and the wearing of safety belts would prevent rescue personnel from performing essential medical assistance. 2.5 Because certain motorized equipment is designed in ways that render the use of safety belts unsafe to the employee, belts will not be required to be used under the following circumstances: 2.5.1 When the driver must enter and exit the vehicle every 500 feet or less in the course of his work. 2.5.2 When the equipment is top heavy and is not equipped with anti-roll bars. all tied ~° 1981 .U be c°~ SUly e ic1eSUte W 111 1~, °~ a1~ v ~ ° en x o4et aR` bed ec~ ~~ , i~` 4 a1 ,~,~ o$t w Ga11y y s4 laU~ ate 1 ' a~L°Ue 4°1 bysl ° SU1ic1es Z10~ eaUC ~ ~~' t° 4• °t ~ v eb by U~Ut1ZA an me°~ ° Ui~ed s 4t oU~,ty °licy 1es 0 Z~4ti ao4~'1 U~f°tcebe te4 ~e a tip' c ibis 4yericWi11 i1 e4a le ,~ e n st r e 3 • U4° 1 yee s~°t s wti1 e ~ ns~a 1 e~~'° be1~sU4et°''sla~ Zf. ec~4 erv i s4ec ate ti° eC.y ~e s o~ U icy ' be gU4 ,t to 1r5 °U• i1itiy sad eaia ed ~ 4oti i11 e ~be1ery bconai~i onsi oU1~e~.be i bsety to ~~ eUSe w of ~b o ~. 1 sa ~,~io~ a ,yes oa sb e• ogee teUCe Z 0~ .i~B wo U~~~Z t bas 1a.4 0~ Uso9 ert`4~ aabe GtoU4ec~ioo EtyFORO t~ is° Use °~" ki~'~ i~b a om~ea ~~b ~ a irb S ~,0 so4e Abe cbec icy w tec ttec ce w ~yety ta~in~ Uall~is 4° ~s aodU°~ co °tdaa coU ~ i ti e1 is ac t U aUd S yaeaUSa~ ~ bebm4~,o9e.e. i i e t eAo m41oy e ~,be ~. 1 tbs sUe e ti~anab°° I' o e Em L also i~ _~~~1~ ~ yi y~ ~_ y ITEM NUMBER E - `~ AT A REGULAR MEETING OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF ROANOKE COUNTY, VIRGINIA HELD AT THE ROANOKE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION CENTER MEETING DATE: April 14, 1987 SUBJECT: Industrial Access for Bolling Steel COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR'S COMMENTS: SUMMARY OF INFORMATION: In 1979, Roanoke County initiated an Industrial Access request on behalf of Bolling Steel off of Route 11/460. Due to the exorbi- tant cost of constructing the proposed road, the County was forced to drop the original request. During the last several months, staff has consulted with Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) officials and one of the adjoining property owners. Based on these meetings, we can antic- ipate approval for Industrial Access Funds for a road within a donated right of way. Actual construction should begin between July 1 - October 1, 1987. FISCAL IMPACT: Roanoke County will request VDOT to reopen the 1979 request for Bolling Steel. Since the right of way will be donated and the construction cost, estimated to be $50,000 to 60,000, will be funded by VDOT and the Industrial Access Fund, this project will have no fiscal impact on Roanoke County. RECOMMENDATION: The staff recommends that Roanoke County request VDOT to reopen the 1979 request for Industrial Access Funds to Bolling Steel and accept the right of way from the adjoining property owner.

ITEM NUMBER ~`! AT A REGULAR MEETING OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF ROANOKE COUNTY, VIRGINIA HELD AT THE ROANOKE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION CENTER MEETING DATE: April 14, 1987 SUBJECT: Acceptance of water and sewer lines in Cave Spring Office Park COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR'S COMMENTS: SUMMARY OF INFORMATION: The Developer of Cave Spring Office Park, Cave Spring Office Park, a Virginia General Partnership, has requested that Roanoke County accept the deed conveying the water and sewer lines serving the subdivision along with all necessary easements.

Requests for these funds have included Bolling Steel, the Town of Vinton (Industrial Park), and Roanoke County (Southwest Indus- trial Park), among others. Roanoke County has received an initial denial for industrial access funds at the Southwest Industrial Park based on nonqualify- ing industry. However, Roanoke County can post a bond with the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) to guarantee qualify- ing industries within twenty-four months. By Bonding qualifying industries, Roanoke County can receive industrial access funds now and construct the necessary roads so that we can market the product in an effort to encourage qualifying industries to locate in Southwest Industrial Park. FISCAL IMPACT: Roanoke County will request from VDOT $125,000 for industrial access at Southwest Industrial Park. In order to obtain these funds Roanoke County must post a bond for $125,000 over a twenty-four month period. If a qualifying industry does not relocate within twenty-four months, Roanoke County will have to reimburse VDOT the total cost of the project, thereby forfeiting the bond up to a maximum cost to the County of $125,000. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that Roanoke County bond qualifying industries for twenty-four months and pursue industrial access funds from VDOT. SUBMITTED BY: ~. 7 Brent D.

The Planning Commission has been involved in a variety of activities in the last year. Since the completion of the Roanoke County Comprehensive Development Plan, the Commission and the staff have concentrated on evaluating the plan and developing implementation strategies such as the "Capital Improvement Plan," the "Land Use Management Guide" and a new zoning ordinance. The Commission has also focused on the development of a sector plan, the "419 Frontage Development Plan," as well as the creation of several new ordinances. Ongoing activities of the Planning Commission include the review of rezoning requests, subdivision waivers, and street vacations. The Board of Zoning Appeals continues to review variance requests of the zoning ordinance. With the implementation of the manufactured housing ordinance, the number of variances has decreased. In addition to the review of variance requests, the Board also has the authority to interpret zoning district boundaries and to hear appeals of administrative decisions made by the Zoning Administrator. described in this report. The Department of Planning and ZOriln~, continues to provide staff assistance to both the Planning Commission and the Board of Zoning Appeals. Their contribution enables these bodies to function in an effective and efficient manner. The department is also involved in project planning and management as well as policy analysis and program development. These programs are We hope you find this information helpful, and we look forward to the opportunity to share in planning the future growth and development of Roanoke County in 1987.

Newlon, Planner Development - Executive Director, Sesquicentennial Section Committee M. Sue Palmer, Community Development Coordinator - 2 - PLANNING COMMISSION ACTIONS 1986 The Roanoke County Planning Commission considers requests for rezoning at their regular monthly meeting held on the first Tuesday of the month. The bylaws were amended in February of 1986 to change the public hearing dates from the third Tuesday to the first Tuesday of the month to coordinate with the Board of Supervisors' public hearing dates. Work sessions are usually held the third Tuesday of the month. Deadlines for filing for rezoning requests are established by the Department of Planning and Zoning to allow for an adequate public hearing notification period as required by the Code of Virginia. The planning staff reviews all requests for rezoning and prepares a staff report containing information to sufficiently outline basic facts concerning the requests. Staff reviews the relationship of the request to the Roanoke County Comprehensive Development Plan, Virginia Department of Highways and Transportation Plan, fire and emergency services, and utility availability. The Planning Commission hears the requests at its monthly meetings and renders a recommendation to the Board of Supervisors. The applicant is required to submi t a Recommendation and Final Order to the Clerk of the Board of Supervisors within 90 days from the Planning Commission action. The Board of Supervisors makes the final decision on rezoning requests. During 1986, the Planning Commission reviewed 34 rezoning requests. Of the 34 requests, the Board of Supervisors heard 27; approving 24 and denying 3; seven were withdrawn. Table I lists the request, the recommendation forwarded by the Planning Commission, and the final action by the Board of Supervisors. The County Planning Commission reviewed and rendered decisions on other planning related requests. These include: A. Subdivision Waiver Requests Under the provisions of the County Code (Chapter 17, Subdivisions), the Planning Commission may permit a variation in the design requirements for subdivisions, if, in its opinion "The topography or other special or unusual conditions necessitate such variations." These variations are termed "waivers" and require staff review and recommendations by the County Subdivision Agent. Five subdivision waiver requests were brought before the Planning Commission in 1986. Of this number, one was approved, two were denied, and two withdrawn. - 3 - B. Vacation of Public Right-of-Way Vacations of dedicated streets or portions thereof on subdivision plats may be petitioned to be "closed, vacated, and discontinued." The staff and Planning Commission conduct reviews on street vacations in accordance with Virginia law, and recommendations are forwarded to the Board of Supervisors for action. In 1986, there were two requests; one was approved and one was withdrawn. C. Use Not Provided For If a use is not specifically permitted in any zoning district and a property owner applies for such use, the request is referred to as a Use Not Provided For request. The Planning Commission reviews such requests and makes recommendations to the Board of Supervisors. In 1986, there were four requests for Use Not Provided For permits. The requests included permits to operate an open air market, an advertising and services complex, a camping area, and an old time Bluegrass string band competition. Three of the four requests were approved.

Powers and duties of the Board of Zoning Appeals as defined by the Code of Virginia and the Roanoke County Code are as follows: - to hear and decide appeals from any order, requirements, decisions or determination made by an administrative officer in administration or enforcement of the Zoning Ordinance and other ordinances related thereto; - to authorize upon appeal or original application specific variances from the terms of the Zoning Ordinance when literal enforcement will result in undue hardship; - to hear and decide appeals from the decision of the Zoning Administrator; - to hear and decide applications for interpretations of the zoning district map where there is uncertainty as to the location of a zoning district boundary. The Board of Zoning Appeals heard 60 requests in 1986. Of the total number of requests reviewed, 88 percent were approved. Table II provides a breakdown of the nature of requests during the year. Requests for variances from provisions of the Zoning Ordinance are heard only after published legal notice as required by the Code of Virginia. Costs for required legal advertising are paid by the petitioners. Planning and Zoning personnel advise the Board of Zoning Appeals. County staff provides initial review, investigation, and comment on all requests to be heard by the Board of Zoning Appeals, whose actions are not subject to review by the Board of Supervisors and may be appealed only to the Circuit Court. - 9 - ~ M M I~ M N d' ~ lC M N M I d' `°~~ N ~' ~' I I'll ..~ 3 O ~ C'~ ,-~ M r-I N I I\II ~ H v H Ca ~ ~ 01 ~ H O '~ r-I r--I M tf1 M N ~ d' O M I II ~ ~ ~"~ M to M N ~ ~ N M I II N r-i I x i v '~ •~ o c ~ o ~ v ~ v +~ a o +~ ~ w + ~ ca~~ ,~ ~ ~ ~ N ~ U ul ~ + ~7 C ~ 0 ~ ~ c ~ ~ ~ ~ U x x • rt •~ ~ v ~ + o • c' ~ ~ v x~ ' ~ • a i ° O ~ + ~ N ~ N ~ ~ t~, rx c ' ~ ~ ~ : ~ •~ •c a ~ a~ o ~ ' ~ ~ ~ ~ ' ~ • + o • + ~ ~ . o ~ ~ o •~ ~ o ~ +~ ~ N ~ ~ ~ ~ w ~ x a x ~n ~, c~i N cz ~ ~ ~ ~ - 10 - ROANOKE COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING AND ZONING 1986 ACCOMPLISHMENTS For the purposes of project management, the Department of Planning and Zoning is divided into three sections; Administrative and Community Services, Land Use and Zoning, and Community Development. All three sections as well as the Planning Commission emphasize community involvement. Community involvement is recognized by the commission and the staff as a crucial component in making any type of public decision, whether it is creating a plan or developing a policy or ordinance. Not only does involving citizens in planning stages insure that policies correspond to citizens' needs, citizen involvement also insures a smoother implementation process. The emphasis on citizen involvement is based on the premise that the more citizens who understand the broad concepts and purposes of what is being proposed, the greater the chance of acceptance and ultimately, of success. The Roanoke County Planning Commission encourages private developers to present their proposals to neighborhood groups prior to Planning Commission public hearings. I. ADMINISTRATIVE AND COMMUNITY SERVICES The Administrative and Community Services section manages all department activities, provides administrative assistance and clerical services, and implements the citizen involvement activities. Staff members of this section include: Robert Stalzer, Elizabeth Bradley, Audrey Bower, Jack Ashworth and Todd Booth. Todd Zecher and Linda Ray, interns from Roanoke College, worked for approximately three months. 1986 projects include: A. Explore Project The Roanoke County Department of Planning and Zoning is sponsor- ing a series of community meetings on the location and design of the Explore Project. Proposed by the River Foundation, a nonprofit organization, the $117 million project would consist of a state park and zoo located in the eastern portion of the County and a river parkway that would extend from Dixie Caverns to Smith Mountain Lake. Three of ten scheduled meetings were held in 1986 on the proposed state park and zoo. Two of six scheduled meetings were held in Glenvar on the proposed parkway. The purpose of the meetings is to insure that citizens' concerns are identified and incorporated into the planning process for the master plan. The master plan is expected to be completed and submitted to the County nor review in November of 1987. - 11 - B. Virginia Citizens' Planning Association Awards The Virginia Citizens' Planning Association awarded a citation to the Virginia Extension Homemakers for their contribution to the community meetings held between 1983 and 1985 on the Roanoke County Comprehensive Development Plan. The homemakers conducted workshops with approximately 800 citizens of Roanoke County to determine their concerns and interests pertaining to land use, transportation, environment, housing, and public services and facilities in the community. The concerns were documented and used as basis for the plan. C. Public Information The staff responds to requests for census, survey, and other development data regarding Roanoke County. Data needs arise from the general population, school administration, students, teachers, developers, banks, commercial interests, journalists, and other interested groups. D. Downtown Vinton Parking Analysis With the assistance of two interns from Roanoke College, staff completed a parking analysis for the Town of Vinton in conjunction with their downtown revitalization efforts. Existing and potential parking needs in the central business district were identified and recommendations for improvements were presented. E. Roanoke County Portion/Regional Geographic Information System In conjunction with the Fifth Planning District Commission, the Department of Planning and Zoning is preparing the Roanoke County Regional Geographic Information System (GIS). The computer based system will facilitate both short and long range decision making by insuring the provision of complete and accurate geographic information. Thirty-eight data elements are being stored for each parcel of property in each of the County's 12 community planning areas. The GIS will have the capability of listing or mapping each of these elements individually or completing cross-sectional analyses involving one or more selected elements. Currently, 8 of 12 community planning areas are complete. Those completed areas are Bonsack, Catawba, Mason's Cove, Peters Creek, Glenvar, Bent Mountain, Back Creek, and Windsor Hills. F. Enhanced-911 Initiating the Enhanced-911 system has required the naming and renaming of approximately 450 public and private streets in Roanoke County. Approximately 7,000 or one-fourth of the total number of County households and 3~usinesses were assigned a new address. For those residents dissatisfied with their new street name, an appeals process was established. Sixty-five petitions were reviewed and resolved through the appeals process. - 12 - A Transportation and Safety Grant application for $15,000 was submitted to the Virginia Department of Motor Vehicles for the installation of reflective street signs at the intersections of heavily traveled primary highways. Preliminary approval has been given. Staff members will be responsible for developing street sign specifications, bid documents, and for overseeing the installation of street signs at 1,350 intersections. In conjunction with a user committee composed of representatives from Fire and Emergency Services, Data Processing, and the Sheriff's Department, staff members evaluated seven computer aided dispatch systems. This evaluation as well as a recommendation has been forwarded to the County Administrator for his action. Staff has worked to coordinate the activities of other County departments to insure the timely and proper installation of a new 800 MHz radio system and the preparation of the emergency operation center to be located at the Southview School. The counties of Floyd, Franklin, and Botetourt were approached with respect to the possibility of installing E-911 services for those areas of their county which share Roanoke County telephone exchanges. Thus far, only Floyd County will participate; providing E-911 services to 197 homes. At the request of C&P Telephone, staff has become a technical contact for other counties throughout the state involved in installing E-911 facilities. G. Appearance Improvement Program In 1986, the Roanoke County Planning Commission adopted the concept of an Appearance Improvement Program. Implemented by the Appearance Improvement Committee, the program will promote excellence in urban and environmental design as well as take measures to protect valuable, natural, historical, and cultural resources. When created, the Appearance Improvement Committee will function as a subcommittee of the Planning Commission. II. LAND USE AND ZONING The Land Use and Zoning section is responsible for maintaining and implementing effective land use policies that reflect the needs and growth management priorities of Roanoke County. Staff members of the Land Use and Zoning section include: James Lehe, Claude Lee and Timothy Beard. Lynn Johnson, an intern from The Pennsylvania State University, worked with this section for approximately six months. 1986 projects include: A. Land Use Management Advisory Committee The Land Use Management Advisory Committee (LUMAC), a sub- committee of the Planning Commission, assisted with the preparation of the "Land Use Management Guide," which was added to the "Roanoke County Land Use Plan" as an implementation strategy. The committee is currently assisting with the development of a new zoning ordinance. The committee is composed of 21 neighborhood, agricultural, housing, retail, industrial, and technical representatives as well as liaisons from the County Planning Commission and staff, the cities of Roanoke and Salem, and the Town of Vinton. - 13 - B. "Land Use Plan Glossary" The "Land Use Plan Glossary" is composed of words and phrases used throughout the "Roanoke County Land Use Plan." The Fifth Planning District Commission prepared the document. C. "Land Use Management Guide" The "Land Use Management Guide," developed with the assistance of the Land Use Management Advisory Committee, is an implementation strategy for the policies and objectives identified in the "Roanoke County Land Use Plan." Regulatory, administrative, fiscal, and partnership strategies are described as well as procedures for amending the Land Use Plan. An action program prioritizes 30 recommendations as high, low, or ongoing activities. One recommendation ranking a high priority is the creation of a new zoning ordinance. D. Final Publication of the "Roanoke County Land Use Plan" VPI&SU landscape architecture students prepared the plan for final publication. The final copy includes a new cover design, illustrations, and maps among other graphic improvements. E. "419 Frontage Development Plan" By year's end, the staff and an intern from Penn State completed the "419 Frontage Development Plan" to guide the future development of frontage properties along one of the County's major highway corridors. The plan evaluates existing conditions which might affect future development; identifies critical public issues through a unique community participation process; contains development guidelines for land use, urban design, transportation, and environmental quality; and recommends a strategy for implementing the plan guidelines. This amendment to the "Roanoke County Land Use Plan" was adopted early 1987. F. Proposed Zoning Ordinance Preparation of a new zoning ordinance, as recommended in the "Roanoke County Land Use Plan," has begun. The Land Use Plan proposes a modified version of performance zoning as a solution to public controversies surrounding land development and as a method to encourage innovation and quality in land development. G. Sign Ordinance Study The staff, with the assistance of an intern from Penn State, tested the current sign ordinance standards in the Tanglewood Core. The study revealed severe problems with the ordinance, especially the sizes of permitted signs and the number of freestanding signs permitted. The staff researched alternative sign standards and developed a preliminary set of guidelines to be used in developing a new sign ordinance. H. Comprehensive Manufactured Home Regulations The manufactured housing ordinance takes a balanced and comprehensive approach to regulating manufactured (mobile) homes. The ordinance establishes five types of manufactured homes; a new MH Manufactured Housing Combining District, and performance standards for manufactured homes on individual lots, mobile home parks, and manufactured housing subdivisions. The ordinance has received extensive acclaim by the Virginia Manufactured Housing Association and has been studied extensively by other localities. - 14 - I. Inoperative Motor Vehicle Ordinance The Board of Supervisors adopted this new ordinance which expedites enforcement procedures and clearly prohibits the keeping of junk, dismantled, or unlicensed vehicles in open areas. The ordinance gave joint authority for enforcement to the Zoning Administrator and the Sheriff. J. Used Tire Storage The Board of Supervisors adopted a new used tire storage ordinance in 1986. Awarded a merit by the Roanoke Valley Clean Valley Council, the ordinance restricts the location of used tire storage facilities to certain zoning districts and requires certain standards to prevent tire fires and other hazards. K. Automobile Graveyard Provisions The Board of Supervisors adopted an automobile graveyard ordinance which restricts by special permit the operation of automobile graveyards to certain zoning districts. L. Emergency Communications Overlay Zone The Board of Supervisors adopted an ordinance which restricts the height of buildings and natural growth within the transmission paths of emergency radio communications for fire protection, law enforcement, and emergency services. M. Contaminated Site Ordinance A contaminated site ordinance is currently being drafted to restrict activities on designated contaminated sites. N. Revised Landfill Permit Procedures The staff revised t'ie procedures necessary for obtaining a special use permit i:o operate a landfill. The new procedures require an applicant to first submit an application to the regional consultant of the Virginia Department of Solid Waste Management. The consultant's comments are then forwarded to the Board of Supervisors along with the special use permit request. 0. Zoning Administration and Enforcement During 1986, staff members found 336 violations of the zoning ordinance and other County codes. These violations are noted in 'T'able III. Of the total number of violations, ten were taken to General District Court and two of these were appealed to the Circuit Court. The ten court cases are described in Table IV. Ninety-seven percent of violations were corrected before court action. Procedures adopted in 1985 have proven effective. - 15 - O ~ •.~ 0 +~ O O N O ( N~~ C~ 1.~ Q .fl O ..~ +~ ?~ O N d' N ~ O~~ N 01 ~ ~~I W~ :]~ ~~ ~ ~~~ ~~ ~ U ~~ a A U H 0.i oo H E~ H W ago U H ~~ Ei ~ ~ O rl b U O ~ ~~ b ~' M .~ MI III ~~ ~~INII da da W W 8 +~ 0 ~ ~ 00 O N l0 N ~, ~ NI II ~, M ~ .4 ~, c~ ~ a U H ~ O ~ H ~ ~ o + U ~ O U H -~ E r ~ U U r ~ N O ~ O N U1 ~ o Q ~ O O J-1 N Z • O ~ cd RS I ~ ~ ~ U ~ ~ r- N ~ H ~ ~ • ~ O ~ ~ U ~ ~ ~ O ~ •~ O C O ~ cC N •~ U w 2~ N H~ 3 H a~ ~ o 0 5 8 ° .~, ~'I mil ~~ a OQ ~ U N ~~ ~ a .~ M ~ ~ ~ ~ U H W ~ ~ ~ U Q ~ .~ ?+ w ~ ~ Z °~ H O O ~ Q - o --~ ~ o ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ N H a b a O a ~ •~ ~ N oa c~ O M •~ bw H H G4 H - 16 - TABT.F IV. 1986 COURT CASES Charges 1.

Site Plan Review The staff completed 140 site plan reviews, including resubmittals for second and subsequent reviews in 1986. 3. Sign Permits In 1986, 112 sign permits were issued. 4. Mobile Home Applications Four mobile home permits were issued between January and March of 1986. After the new manufactured home regulations went into effect in April 1986, 53 manufactured home permits were issued. 5. Special Use Permits The staff reviewed four the Board of Supervisors approved, one was denied, special use permit applications to Of the four permits, two were and one was withdrawn. III. COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT The Community Development section is responsible for developing, maintaining, and implementing effective capital planning, housing, community development and informational system policies and programs that reflect the needs and priorities of Roanoke County. Staff members of the Community Development section include: Bonnie Newlon and Sue Palmer. 1986 projects include: A. Sesquicentennial Committee In 1988, Roanoke County will celebrate its 150th birthday. To plan for the commemoration, the Sesquicentennial Committee was farmed. During 1986 the executive director of the committee was a member of the Planning and Zoning staff . Among the events currently being planned include an evening gala, festival day at Tanglewood Mall, a beach music festival, a county fair, a time capsule burial. Committee members include representatives from Roanoke College, local historical societies, local Chamber of Commerces, and many other distinguished citizens and community leaders. Within the Sesquicentennial Committee there are ten functioning subcommittees dealing with the history of Roanoke County, special events, fund raising, and commemoratives. The Sesquicentennial Committee has recently submitted an application for $20,000 to the Virginia Foundation for the Humanities. If the money is awarded, it will be used to fund a series of historical forums as well as to produce a series of television and radio historical minutes. - 18 - B. Hollins Community Development Project The Hollins Community Development Project is a multiphased neighborhood improvement program which involves residents in Roanoke and Botetourt counties. Water, sewer, road, and housing improvements will be funded through grants and loans totaling $2.3 million from Virginia Water Project, Farmers' Home Administration, Virginia Department of Highways and Transportation, and the Virginia Community Development Block Grant. Fifty percent of the housing rehabilitation has been completed. Sewer, water, and road construction is expected to begin in early 1987. Participation by the private sector providing specialized services coupled with the existing cooperation of residents, funding agencies, and the governing bodies of the two counties increase the positive impact in meeting critically needed improvements in this community. C. Roanoke/Botetourt County Joint Library The Virginia State Library Board recently awarded over $214,000 to the counties of Roanoke and Botetourt for the Roanoke/ Botetourt County Joint Library. The library will be the first joint library in the Commonwealth of Virginia. Donated by the Greater Roanoke Valley Development Foundation and the Roanoke Valley Development Corporation, the site for the library is located on the border of the two counties between Bonsack and Blue Ridge. Drawings for the library have been completed and bids for construction will be sought early in 1987. The counties are currently requesting additional land to help with the construction of the entrance which had to be moved due to the finding of an archaeological site. D. Roanoke County Capital Improvement Plan: 1986-87/90-91 The Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) is a schedule. of public and private improvements which may be made over the next 5-year period. Projects, the majority of which were identified in the "Community Facilities Plan," are inventoried, prioritized, and funding sources are identified. The CIP provides a systematic approach to planning, evaluating, monitoring, and financing capital projects on an annual basis. The 1986-87 to 1990-91 Roanoke County Capital Improvement Plan is the first 5-year capital program prepared and adopted by the Roanoke County Board of Supervisors. E. Section 8 Housing In June of 1984, Roanoke County applied for an allocation of Section 8 Housing Existing Rental Units through the Virginia Housing and Development Authority. In 1986, an allocation of 25 units was awarded to the County. A private contractor will administer the program under the auspices of the Department of Planning and Zoning. The program will make affordable housing more available to lower income County residents. - 19 - F. Back Creek/Bent Mountain Schools Study In November 1986, the Roanoke County School Board established a citizens' advisory committee to study the facility and educational needs of the elementary schools in Back Creek and Bent Mountain. Staff members have been working with the committee to determine facility needs and future population trends. Both elementary schools are currently operating at capacity and have experienced major increases in enrollment.

It is highly desirable to adopt the budget when the tax rates are set, but this was not done at that time. The Town of Vinton has included in their proposed budget the transfer of refuse fees from Roanol~e County and are waiting for a decision on this fee. They are unable to adopt their budget until they are assured that Roanok,'~e County will be transferring this fee to them. Also, the '~,reasurer's Offices in Roanoke County and the Town of Vinton must begin preparing tax bills. These must be mailed by May 5, 197 to receive payment on June 5, 1987. Postponement of this process could result in cash flow difficulties. I~ RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the Board adopt the proposed budget for fiscal year 1987/88. The Appropriation Resolution will be brought to the Board in June. C!~~ Elmer C.

L. HoGAN CHIEF In Virginia, the last diagnosed rabid dogs were reported in 1982 (2 cases). To date there continues to be rabies activity and exposure in the cat population in Virginia. The distribution of dog and cat rabies reflects the distribution of wildlife vectors which infect these domestic species. It is also proven that rabies in the U.S. is now primarily controlled by creating an immune barrier of vaccinated dogs and cats between the rabid wild animals and humans. It is encouraged and endorsed by public health directors and public health veterinarians for all cities and counties to implement effective programs to remove stray and unwanted animals and to in- sure vaccination of all dogs and cats. We know that cat rabies cases now exceed annually all reported cases in dogs. North Carolina passed a state law in January, 1984, requiring vaccination of all cats against rabies. Before the state enacted legislation requiring this, there were progressive counties and cities that had already seen the need and passed local ordinances and codes requiring cat rabies vaccination. Presently there are 30 jurisdictions within the state of Virginia which are progressive enough to have passed laws requiring cat rabies vaccinations. On a local basis we need to be aware of the benefits of a mandatory cat rabies vaccination law, the public protection from it, and how it would strengthen our ability to deal with the currently surmounting problems. The key to dealing effectively with all of our counties animal problems is having laws that will support each other and be broad enough in spectrum to any animal related situation they may encounter to be better able to serve the tax paying public. 28 of the 30 jurisdictions with cat rabies vaccination laws are: Arlington Co. Norfolk Colonial Beach Loudoun Co. Vienna Fairfax City Fairfax Co. Falls Church Alexandria Louisa Co. Prince William Manassas City Manassas Park Hampton York Co. Virginia Beach Buckingham Co. Hopewell Poquoson Williamsburg Co. Henrico Co. Chesterfield Co. Newport News Richmond City Petersburg Winchester Emporia Prince George Co. P.O. BOX 29800 ROANOKE.

Box 307 VINTON, VIRGINIA 241 79 March 13, 1987 Mr. Elmer C. Hodge P. 0. Box 29800 Roanoke, VA 24018-0798 Dear Mr. Hodge: Although Roanoke County has not had a rabid animal within my ten years as Health Director, the opportunity for that record to be broken is, unfortu- nately, rapidly approaching. The raccoon population appears to be migrat- ing westerly so that surrounding localities have already experienced an upsurge in the number of rabid animals. Botetourt County had one rabid animal in 1985, one 1986; Allegheny County had four in 1986 and Shenandoah County had two in 1984, 14 in 1985, and 24 in 1986 (a twelve-fold increase in just two years). Roanoke County has a very effective dog ordinance and this has cer~'ainly contributed in helping to make Roanoke County rabid free. However, we now find that there are more rabid cats than dogs and yet we have no ordinance which might afford some degree of protection from the occurrence of rabies in cats. I would like to propose that the Roanoke County Board of Super- visors adopt a cat ordinance similar to the dog ordinance that requires vaccination of cats. I have conferred with Mr. Ken Hoqan, the Animal Control Officer, regarding this issue and find him to be a strong proponent of such an ordinance and eager for the county to take this action. Please feel free to call the Health Department for any additional questions or concerns you might have about such an ordinance and to know that we will be more than happy to provide any resources toward the creation of a local ordinance requiring vaccination of cats. Thank you for your consideration of this request. Since ly, s a y Welch, M. D., Director Allegheny Health District NMW/mac p~ RQAN~~F ,, .w ~ ~ ,• ~ ~~ 1838 COUNTY ATTORNEY March 11, 1987 PAUL M.
