Creec problem at 5162 Cave Spring Lane
COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR' S COMMENTS : yvL~~; ,
. !~v~c~~c r,/~'~v ci/l'~~~~v' ' ~ ic-~• .mac-~(,`
BACKGROUND:
During the 1985 Flood, significant damage was suffered by
several properties on the upper reaches of Mudlick Creek in the
area of Farmington Drive. This damage was directly related to
the inability of a culvert installed in Mudlick Creek at Cave
Spring Lane to satisfactorily handle the drainage. This portion
of Cave Spring Lane was unimproved. During that period in 1985,
the culvert and embankment did wash out which relieved the back
water effects to those properties on Fonelof the property owners
1988, Roanoke County was notified by entrance
on Farmington Drive that new culverts and a driveway
were being installed in Mudlick Creek. Upon investigation, it
was determined that the property owner, Mr. David Hauser, at 5162
Cave Spring Lane, had constructed his driveway at this new
location. Mr. Hauser was informed of the provisions concerning
the Flood Plain Regulations within the Roanoke County Zoning
Ordinance, and was requested to either remove the facilities or
provide the necessary drainage study to verify troterte ownersy
and culvert would not cause damage to upstream p p Y
This process continued for several months and once it was
determined that the engineering study and/ostafpragain met wi th
not going to be completed satisfact ~roi 9 't resolution of the
Mr. Hauser in early 1989, to try
problem.
By letter dated March 1, 1989, Mr. Hauser was given until
August 1, 1989, to resolve the specific concerns. Based on an
inspection of the site on July 25, 1989, Mr. Hauser has not
addressed the problem. Again, staff has written to Mr. Hauser
requesting the complets~n8of1989se improvements with a completion
date no later than Augu
`./ ""
SUMMARY OF INFORMATION:
Staff would recommend thabetfundedtthroughrthelcurrenton,
if it is required by the County,
drainage budget. The cost of thescoffice1foraapp~oPr~ate legalbe
forwarded to the County Attorney
action to recover the expense.
ALTERNATIVES AND IMPACTS
ALTERNATIVE N0. 1:
Authorize the County Attorney to file wlletehthelworkt
Court an injunction to require Mr. Hauser to comp
ALTERNATIVE N0. 2:
Have the property owner complete the necessary corrective
action to resolve potential flooding problems on Farmington.
ALTERNATIVE NO. 3:
Authorize the Engineering Department through the Drainage
Maintenance Program to have theionsrwithvMracHausercompleted and
file the necessary legal proves
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff has worked with the property owner to obtain
compliance and resolve the problem and would hope thriorhto the
property owner will have implemented alternative 2- P ro erty
August 8, 1989, Board Meeting. In the event that the p P
owner does not implement alternative 2, staff would recommend,

temporary law enforcement deputy position.
Acceptance of an additional allocation of funds in FY
1989-90 from the State Compensation Board for a
COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR' S C:OMMEN'1'S: ~.r~:- ~~~~`~~~~ ~
SUMMARY OF INFORMATION:
The Virginia State Compensation Board has identified a critical
need for additional law enforcement deputies for road patrol throughout
the Commonwealth. To meet this critical need, the Governor has
approved in his FY 1989-90 budget the funding of ten emergency law
enforcement positions. Roanoke County was chosen as one of the ten
localities to receive one of these temporary positions. Therefore the
FY 1989-90 Compensation Board budget for Roanoke County includes an
additional $17,277 for this purpose. Based on the current County pay
plan, these funds would need to be supplemented $869 for a full twelve
month position.
The two additional deputy-sheriff
approved in the 1989-90 County budget
person for each of two platoons. The
allow us to put an additional uniform
patrol platoon. This would maintain
they rotate through their schedules.
ALTERNATIVE AND IMPACTS:
uniform patrol positions already
will give us one additional
new emergency position would
patrol officer on the third
the balance between platoons as
1. Accept the additional State Compensation Board allocation of
$17,277 and use the funds for an additional Deputy Sheriff-Uniform
Patrol position and appropriate an additional $869 from the Board
Contingency as the County supplement. The cost of the vehicle,
uniform, and other equipment required for this new position will be
funded within the existing Sheriff's Department budget.
2. Accept the additional State Compensation Board allocation and
use the funds to pay for a Deputy Sheriff-Uniform Patrol position
currently being funded 100 percent by the County of Roanoke. There
would be a cost savings to the County of $17,277.
STAFF RNDATIONS: ~ ~ `""~'~
Staff recommends Alternative 1 to honor the intent of the budget
allocation by the State Compensation Board for the emergency law
enforcement position. The County has identified a need for additional
patrol officers and the State has found a way to help our situation,
even if it is a temporary solution.

Thank you for your letter of July 13, 1989, concerning the drainage
problems you have been experiencing at your home on Taney Drive.
A number of calls were received about this situation indicating
that the pipes were clogged; however, when a crew went out to
unclog the pipes, they were flowing freely. The county is
repairing the erosion. The Virginia Department of Transportation
has -responsibility for the pipes which were designed for a ten year
storm and no~;,rans more like a twenty-five year storm. The State
has not been`_willing in the past to replace the pipes but we
believe there-`-is"sufficient evidence to get them to do so now.
,:
I ,.will :takes ;thsW to the Board of Supervisors as an agenda item
requesting tha~:the State replace the pipes. If the State refuses
our request, this project will be put on our priority list.
According to George Simpson, this project would be at least 29th
on the list, and it may be twelve months to eighteen months before
work could be started. In the meantime, we will continue to
maintain the pipes and drainage area.
When we have something definite from the State about the project,
we will be back in touch with you. If I can be of any further
assistance, please feel free to call me or Phillip Henry, Director,
Engineering.

IN RE; APPROPRIATION OF DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE FUNDS FOR THE

Supervisor Nickens asked if the $61,147 could be
specifically directed toward the three-person team now involved
in drug enforcement in Roanoke County. County Attorney Paul
Mahoney advised that regulations place specific limits on where
the money can be spent and the chief law enforcement officer must

Supervisor Nickens pointed out that more than $6200 in
donated funds for a dog may be needed to cover the training for

drug enforcement dog. Supervisor Nickens responded he still felt
that the board needed to know exactly how the $61,000 would be
spent for drug enforcement activities.
Supervisor Johnson made a substitute motion to separate
the two issues. The motion was seconded by Supervisor Robers and

IN RE: CITIZENS COMMENTS AND COMMUNICATIONS
1. S7errv Grubb advised he purchased a lot in the
Stonewood subdivision knowing it would require a well. He later
found out his property was within 100 feet of a public water line.
He requested that the County waive the water ordinance allowing
him to hook up through private easements. At the November 9
board meeting, the board denied his request for a waiver. He
requested reconsideration of his request for connection to a
public water line through private easements.
Utility Director Clifford Craig reported that this
ordinance was adopted to keep the system consistent for all areas
29 u
November 22, 1986
provided by public water, including full fire service and
pressure.
In response to a question from Supervisor Nickens,
the County Attorney advised that the Board may move to reconsider
the previous action and take another vote or take no action
leaving the decision on November 9 in effect. No action was
taken and the denial of November 9, 1988 remained in effect.
2. Frances Robbins, 620 Hiah Street, Salem spoke on
behalf of her mother Marie Mitchell, 3043 Franklin Street, Salem.
She requested that a water line be run through a lot adjacent to
her property and has applied for a water connection on November 1.
Her spring system was clogged in July 1988. The clog was cleared
and the spring treated. The water was tested and shows the water
to be contaminated, making it necessary for her to live with Ms.
Robbins. Utility Director Clifford Craig advised that she could
be authorized to hook up to Salem's water service but would not
approve a water connection to the water main on Franklin Street.
She is requesting connection to the Franklin Street water main
primarily because of the expense of connecting to the Salem water
service. -_
Chairman Garrett directed the staff to investigate and
bring back a recommendation to the board for approval.

the type of business, profession, trade, or occupation proposed by the appli-
cant, shall refuse to issue such business license until a certificate is
issued by the zoning administrator stating that the location is properly zoned

sions, trades, or occupations all subject to the same rate, all measured by
the same base, and all carried on at the same place of business, he may obtain
one license for all such businesses, professions, trades, or occupations, but

ditures, and the report of such gross receipts or gross expenditures shall be
taken from such records. All such records and general books of account shall
be open to inspection and examination by any authorized representative of the
county, and shall be maintained for a period of five (5) years.
(b) Each licensee whose license is measured by gross receipts or gross
expenditures shall submit to the commissioner of the revenue, not later than
January 31 of each year, a report of his gross receipts or gross expenditures

(c) In those cases in which the conduct of the business, profession,
trade, or occupation involves operations subject to more than one (1) rate or

hereby required to maintain separate accounts for each such operation; pro-
vided, however, that the licensee may elect to maintain a single account for
all operations tax in which case the entire business license shall be computed
at the highest rate applicable to any part of the business taxed on gross
receipts.
(d) If any licensee shall fail to maintain the records required in this
section, regularly supported by customary vouchers, the commissioner of the
revenue is hereby authorized and directed to estimate the taxpayer's gross
receipts or gross expenditures on the basis of the best evidence he can ob-
tain, and the commissioner of the revenue shall make an assessment on the ba-
sis of such determination.

then-current Year, and his license tax for the then-current year shall be com-
puted on such estimate.
fib) Whenever a license tax is so computed upon the estimated gross re-
ceipts or gross expenditures, any erroneous estimate shall be subject to cor-
rection and the commissioner of the revenue shall assess such person with any
additional license tax found to be due after the end of that license year, and
shall at the same time correct the estimate for the then current license year,
until a full year of operation shall have been completed, and in case of an
over-estimate the taxpayer shall be entitled to a credit upon his license tax
payable the following year

ble for a license tax, and the license tax is imposed upon the gross receipts
or gross expendi-tares thereof, then the license tax shall be paid by the corpo-
ration or partnership, or employer; and when so paid it shall be deemed to
discharge the license tax liability of the officers and er~loyees of such cor-
poration, and of the partners and employees of such partnership and of such
persons employed by an employer who would otherwise be liable to such license
tax, insofar as the business of such licensed corporation, partnership or em-

Sec. 10-12. Transfer of licenses.
(a) Licenses issued under the provisions of Article II of this chapter,
except as otherwise provided, may be transferred from one person to another or
from one location to another; provided that no such transfer shall be valid
unless and until notice in writing is given to the commissioner of the revenue
of the proposed transfer, which notice shall contain the name, trade name, if
any, and the address of the proposed transferee; the proposed new location, if
any; and the effective date of the proposed transfer; and the commissioner of
the revenue may approve such transfer upon being satisfied of the good faith
thereof. Failure to notify the commissioner of the revenue of the transfer of
a license within thirty (30) days of such transfer shall invalidate such li-
cense and such invalidated license shall not be subject to refund as provided
by Section 10-15 of this Code.
(b) It is specifically provided, however, that if the transferor's li-
tense for the current license year has been based on an estimate of gross re-
ceipts or gross expenditures, as provided in Section 10-1 (a) and (b) of this
chapter, the transferor shall reveal his gross receipts or gross expenditures
for the period he was in business during the current license year and if the
accumulation of gross receipts or gross expenditures by transfer date shall
exceed the original estimate, the transferee shall be required to amend the
license by an estimate of the gross receipts or gross expenditures he will
314

incur between the day of beginning business and the end of the current license
year. -~
(c) Licenses issued under the provisions of Article III shall not be

chapter shall keep the forth, decal, or sign issued in evidence thereof as pres-
cribed by the commissioner of the revenue in a convenient and conspicuous
place, and whenever required to do so shall exhibit the same to any authorized
enforcement officer of the county.
Sec. 10-14. AssessmQnt of license taxes found for years past.
If the commissioner of the revenue ascertains that any person has not
been assessed with a license tax levied under the terms of this chapter for
any license tax year of the three (3) license tax years last past, and the
absence of such assessment was not due to the fraudulent intent to evade taxes
on the part of such person, it shall be the duty of the commissioner of the
revenue to assess such person with the proper license tax for the year or
years omitted. Penalty and interest at the rate provided under Section 10-6
shall accrue thereon from the date of such assessment until payment; provided,
315
November 22, 1988
if such assessment was necessitated through no fault of the taxpayer, such
penalty and interest shall accrue after thirty (30) days from such date of
assessment until payment.
State law reference - Code of Virginia Section 58.1-3903.
Sec. 10-15. Certification of erroneous assessment; refunds when licensee
ceases to do business.
(a) The commissioner of the revenue is empowered to certify to the trea-
surer any instances of erroneous assessments. Upon receipt of such certifi-
cate the treasurer is directed to make a refund based upon the certificate of
the commissioner of the revenue.
(b) Licenses issued under the provisions of Article II of this chapter,
except those measured by other than gross receipts or gross expenditures,
shall be subject to refund where the licensee goes out- of business before the
end of the current license year subject to all of the following qualifica-
tions:
(1) License for the current license year must be based on gross
receipts or gross expenditures obtained throughout the preced-
ing calendar year.
(2) The reason for going out of business is not connected in any
manner with the violation of any state law or local ordinance
or violation of any rules or regulations made pursuant there-
to.
316
November 22, 1988
(3) The amount of refund shall be determined in the following man-
ner: If the licensee goes out of business after January 1 and
before April 1, the refund shall be seventy-five (75~) percent
of the tax paid; if the licensee goes out of business on or
after April 1 and before July 1, the refund shall be fifty
(50~) percent of the tax paid; and if the licensee goes out of
business on or after July 1 and before October 1, the refund
shall be twenty-five (25~) percent of the tax paid; but in no
case shall the refund reduce the tax below the minimum as pro-
vided by this Code.
(4) No refund shall be made of any minimum flat tax or of any
other flat license fee not based on gross receipts.
(c) Refunds based on licensee going out of business shall be made in the
same manner as herein provided for erroneous assessments.
(d) If any person seeking a refund is indebted to the county or any de-
partment or office thereof, or is indebted to any state constitutional office
of the county for a local levy, the refund, or so much thereof as is neces-
sary, shall first be applied to such indebtedness.
(e) Any person who has been properly issued a license may apply for a
refund prior to the date upon which the license was to become effective by
providing satisfactory evidence to the Commissioner of the Revenue that the
business was never commenced or the sale, show, performance or exhibition will
not take place. Upon being satisfied that such license was never in effect,
317
November 22, 1988
the Commissioner of the Revenue may authorize a refund of the license fee less
a thirty dollars ($30.00) processing fee.
State law reference - Code of Virginia Section 58.1-3980, 3981.
Sec. 10-16. Insufficient assessment; payment of additional tax found to be
due.
If the commissioner of the revenue ascertains that any assessment of a
license tax levied under the provisions of this chapter for any of the three
(3) license tax years last past or for the then-current license tax year was
for less than the correct amount, and the assessment of the license tax at the
lesser amount was not due to the licensee's fraudulent intent to evade taxes,
then the commissioner of the revenue shall assess the licensee with the addi-
tional license tax found to be due." Penalty and interest at the rate provided
under Section 10-6 shall accrue thereon from the date of the assessment until
payment; provided, if such assessment was necessitated through no fault of the
taxpayer, such penalty and interest shall accrue after thirty (30) days from
such date of assessment until payment.
State law reference - Code of Virginia Section 58.1-3903.
Sec. 10-17. License as personal privilege.
Every license issued under the provisions of this chapter shall be deemed
to confer a personal privilege to transact, carry on, or conduct the business,
3~a
November 22, 1988
profession, trade, or occupation which may be the subject of the license, and
shall not be exercised except by the persons licensed.
Sec. 10-18. ~forcement of chapter.
(a) In the enforcement of the provisions of this chapter the commission-
er of the revenue of the county, in addition to the powers herein specifically
granted, shall have all and the same enforcement authority with respect to
county licenses that state law confers upon commissioners of the revenue gen-
erally with respect to state licenses. As one of the means of ascertaining
the amount of any license tax due under the provisions of this chapter, or of
ascertaining any other pertinent information, the commissioner of the revenue
may require taxpayers or their agents or any person, firm, or officer of a
company or corporation to furnish information relating to tangible or intangi-
ble personal property, income, or license taxes of any and all taxpayers; and
require such persons to furnish access to books of account or other papers and
records for the purpose of verifying the tax returns of such taxpayers and
procuring the information necessary to make a complete assessment of any tax-
payer's tangible and intangible personal property, income, and license taxes
for the current year.
(b) The commissioner may, for the purpose of assessing all taxes assess-
able by his office, summon the taxpayer or any other person to appear before
him at his office, to answer under oath, questions touching the tax liability
of any and all specifically identified taxpayers. The commissioner shall not,
319
November 22, 1988
however, summon a taxpayer or other person for the tax liability of the tax-
payer which is the subject of litigation.
(c) Any person who refuses to (i) furnish to the commissioner of the
revenue access to books of account or other papers and records, (ii) furnish
information to the commissioner of the revenue relating to the assessment of
taxes, (iii) answer under oath questions touching any person's tax liability,
or (iv) exhibit to the con¢nissioner of the revenue any subject of taxation
liable to assessment by the commissioner of the revenue, shall be deemed
guilty of a Class 4 misdemeanor. Each day's refusal to furnish such access or
information shall constitute a separate offense.

sional include only those gross receipts obtained from the practice of that

BE IT ORDAINED by the Board of Supervisors of Roanoke
County, Virginia, as follows:
1. Purpose.
November 22, 1988
355
The purpose of this ordinance is to provide a procedure for
citizens of the County to obtain the construction of public works
or public infrastructure improvements in order to satisfy a
demand or need for public services.
2. Count ~ may impose.
The County may impose taxes or assessments upon the abutting
property owner or abutting property owners for making, improving,
replacing or enlarging the walkways upon then existing streets,
for improving and paving then existing alleys, and for either the
construction or the use of sanitary or storm water sewers includ-
ing retaining walls, curbs and gutters; however, such taxes or
assessments shall not be in excess of the peculiar benefits re-
sulting from the improvements to such abutting owner or owners,
and no assessment for retaining walls shall be imposed upon any
property owner who does not agree to such assessment.
In addition to the foregoing, the County may impose taxes or
assessments upon abutting property owners for the construction,
replacement or enlargement of sidewalks, waterlines, sanitary
sewers or storm water sewers; for the installation of street
lights; for the construction or installation of canopies or other

connection with the foregoing; and for permanent amenities, in-
cluding, but not limited to, benches or waste receptacles, pro-
vided that such taxes or assessments shall not be in excess of
35fi
November 22, 198a
the peculiar benefits resulting from the improvements to such
abutting property owners.
3. Assessments for stre_t-s
Certain streets may be accepted by the Commonwealth of Vir-
ginia into the secondary system of state highways if the county
agrees to contribute from county revenue or the special assess-
menu of landowners on the street in question one-half of the cost
to bring the streets up to the. necessary minimum standards for
acceptance.
No such special assessment shall be made unless the county
receives a petition or written declarations from the owners of at
least seventy-five (75~) percent of the platted parcels of land
abutting upon such street agreeing to such assessment.
This assessment shall be subject to the limitations and
restrictions contained in Section 33.1-72.1 of the 1950 Code of
Virginia, as amended, in particular, the basis for such special
assessments and the restrictions upon speculative interest by
developers.

tion of an appropriate ordinance, and the cost thereof appor-
tioned in pursuance of an agreement between the County and the
abutting property owners.
357
November 22, 1986
If all of the abutting property owners agree to share in the
equitable distribution of the costs of such improvements, then as
authorized by an appropriate ordinance the County may enter into
an agreement to administer the improvements project in accordance
with County standards and regulations. In administering such a
project the County may identify the costs of the improvements and
assess or apportion these costs among the abutting property
owners.
At the County's option the abutting property owners shall
deposit with the County the estimated amount of the costs of such
improvements upon the execution of an agreement, or they shall
reimburse the County for the, costs of such improvements. The
reimbursement of these costs shall be accomplished upon such
terms and conditions and at a rate of interest to be determined
by ordinance. A lien shall be recorded securing the reimburse-
ment of these costs. If the proposed improvements are for a util-
ity project, then the reimbursement of these costs and interest
may be accomplished through the regular utility billing proce-
dures, and revenue collected would be deposited in the utility
enterprise fund.
In the absence of such an agreement, improvements, the cost
of which is to be defrayed in whole or in part by such local tax
assessment, may be ordered on a petition from not less than
seventy-five (75~) of the landowners to be affected thereby, or
358
November 22, 1988
by a vote of two-thirds of all of the members elected to the
Board. But notice shall first be given as hereinafter provided
to the abutting landowners, notifying them when and where they
may appear before the Board to be heard in favor of or against
such improvements.
5. Adoption of ordinance.
A special assessment ordinance may be adopted either upon an
agreement among all of the abutting property owners, upon a peti-
tion of seventy-five (75$) percent of the affected abutting
property owners, or upon an affirmative vote of two-thirds of all
of the members elected to the board.
A local public works improvements project may be deemed ne-
cessary to address a situation concerning the public health, safe-
ty or welfare.
Board action should alleviate a threat or danger to life,
limb, or property. --
6. How costs assessed or apportioned.
The cost of such improvements, when the same shall have been
ascertained, shall be assessed or apportioned by a committee con-
sisting of the Assistant County Administrator for Community Ser-
vices and Development and the County Assessor. The County may
agree to accept a portion of those costs, or to provide in-kind
design, engineering or administrative services. If the County
agrees to accept a portion of these costs, then the cost of such
35 9
November_ 22, , 1988
improvements shall be assessed or apportioned between the County
and the abutting property owner or owners when less than the
whole is assessed.
7. Assessments to be reported to treasurer.
The amount assessed against each landowner, or for which he
is liable by agreement, shall be reported as soon as practicable
to the Treasurer, who shall enter the same as provided for other
taxes.
By ordinance the Board may provide for the postponement of
the payment of such assessment by certain elderly or permanently
and totally-disabled property owners meeting the eligibility con-
ditions of Article III, Chapter 21 of this Code, until the sale
of the property or the death of the last eligible owner. The
eligible property owner shall have the option of payment or post-
ponement.
If the assessment is apportioned by agreement and payment is
authorized through the utility billing procedure, then the amount
assessed--including terms, conditions, and interest rate--shall
be reported to that department for billing and collection.
8. Notice to landowner of amount of assessment recBzired
When the assessment or apportionment is not fixed by agree-
ment, notice thereof, and of the amount so assessed or appor-
tioned, shall be given each of the then abutting owners and they
shall be cited thereby to appear before the committee designated
3~0
November 22, 1989
in Section 6 not less than ten (10) days thereafter, at a time
and place to be designated therein, to show cause, if any they
can, against such assessment or apportionment.
9. How notice criven; objections
The notice required by the preceding section may be given by
personal service on all persons entitled to such notice, except
that notice to an infant or insane person may be served on his
guardian or committee and notice t~o a nonresident may be mailed
to him at his place of residence or served on any agent of his
having the property in charge, or on the tenant of the freehold,
or in any case when the owner is a nonresident, or when the
owner's residence is not known, such notice may be given by publi-
cation in some newspaper published or having general circulation
in the County once a week for four (4) successive weeks. Or, in
any case, in lieu of such personal service on the parties or
their agents and of such publication, the notice to all parties
may be given by publishing the same in some newspaper published
or having general circulation in the County once a week for two
(2) successive weeks, the last publication to be made at least
seven (7) days before the parties are cited to appear. Any land-
owner wishing to make objections to an assessment or apportion-
ment may appear in person or by counsel and state his objections.
This notice and opportunity to make objections may be com-
bined with the notice and public hearing for the adoption of an
36 7
November 22, 1988
appropriate ordinance approving specific local public works
improvements.
10. Aepeal to court authorized.
If his objections are overruled, he shall, within thirty
(30) days thereafter, but not afterwards, have an appeal as of
right to the Circuit Court of the County. When an appeal is
taken, the committee designated in Section 6 shall immediately
deliver to the clerk of the court which has cognizance of the
appeal the original notice relating to the assessment, with its
judgment endorsed thereon and the clerk shall docket the same.
11. How appeal tried; lien of iudctment; when to take effect;
how enforced.
Such appeal shall be tried by the court or the judge there-
of, in a summary way, without pleadings in writing and without a
jury, in term time or in vacation, after ten (10) days' notice to
the adverse party, and the hearing shall be de novo. The amount
finally assessed against or apportioned to each landowner, or
fixed by agreement with him, as herein before provided, shall be
a lien enforceable in equity on his abutting land, from the time
when the work of improvement shall have been completed; subject,
however, to his right of appeal and objections as aforesaid.
Such lien shall be enforceable against any person deemed to have
had notice of the proposed assessment under section 11, but if no
abstract of the resolution or ordinance authorizing the improve-
36~
November 22, 1988
ment is docketed as provided in section 11, such lien shall be
void as to all purchasers for valuable consideration without
notice and lien creditors until and except from the time it is
duly admitted to record in the clerk's office of the Circuit
Court of the county. The Board, in its discretion, may cause the
payment of the amount finally assessed or apportioned against
each landowner, or fixed by agreement with him to be divided into
two (2) or more, but not exceeding twenty (20), semiannual
installments.
12. Docketing of abstracts of resolutions or ordinances
When any improvement is authorized for which assessments may
be made against the abutting landowners, the board may, before
the amount to be finally assessed against or apportioned to each
landowner or fixed by agreement is determined, cause to be
recorded in the judgment docket of the clerk's office in which
deeds conveying real estate are required by law to be recorded,
an abstract of the resolution or ordinance authorizing such
improvement, showing the ownership and location of the property
to be affected by the proposed improvement and the estimated
amount that will be assessed against or apportioned to each land-
owner or fixed by agreement with him, and the same shall be
indexed in the name of the owner of the property.
After the completion of the improvement, the estimated
amount shall be amended to show the amount finally assessed
3fi3
November 22, 1988
against or apportioned to each landowner or fixed by agreement
with him, which final amount shall in no event exceed the esti-
mated amount for the improvements as initially authorized. The
amount finally assessed against or apportioned to each landowner
may be greater than the initially assessed amount when the
increased amount is for additional work being performed when said
work was requested by the landowner and the additional work and
its estimated amount is written into a separate agreement between
the County and the affected landowner. From the time of the doc-
keting of such abstract, any purchase of, or creditor acquiring a
j lien on, any of the property described therein shall be deemed to
have had notice of the proposed assessment.
13. Installment gavment of assessments.
The persons against who the assessments have been finally
made may pay such assessments in equal installments over a period
of not exceeding ten (10) years, together with interest at the
rate not to exceed the judgment rate of interest on the unpaid
balances. Such installments shall become due at the same time
that real estate taxes become due and payable and the amount of
each installment, including principal and interest, shall be
shown on the tax ticket or bill mailed not later than fourteen
(14) days prior to the installment due date to each such person
by the treasurer.
14. Special districts.
364
November 22, 1988
The county may create special districts or areas within the
county, if those areas desire additional or more complete govern-
mental services than are desired in the county as a whole. The
board shall have the power to levy a higher tax in such areas,
and the proceeds therefrom shall be segregated for expenditure in
the areas from which said proceeds are raised.
The higher tax rate shall not be levied for education, law
enforcement, or general governmental services.
The board shall create a special district or area only by
ordinance. This ordinance shall not be effective until approved
by an affirmative vote of the qualified voters residing within
the proposed special district or area at a referendum on such
question. Upon receipt of a petition from the citizens indicat-
ing support for the creation of a special district or area and
describing the boundaries of the district or area, the board
shall request the circuit court to place this referendum question
on the ballot, either at the--next scheduled general election or
at a special election.
15. Severability.
The sections, paragraphs, sentences, and clauses of this
chapter are severable, and if any phrase, clause, sentence, para-
graph, or section of this chapter shall be declared unconstitu-
tional or invalid by the valid judgment or decree of a court of
competent jurisdiction, the remaining phrases, clauses, sen-
November 22, 1983
3fi5
tences, paragraphs, and sections of this chapter shall remain
valid.
16. This ordinance shall be in full force and effect from and
after December 1, 1988.

ZONING ORDINANCE REVISIONS
Preliminary Recommendations
Rural Districts Subcommittee
I. General Approach - by geographic area starting with Catawba Planning
Area as a pilot area and model to work from in other areas.
* Recognizes differences around the County and greater sensitivity
of rural residents for land use controls.
* By Board Action (9/27/88), Catawba was given high priority.
* Permitted uses, standards for uses and basic provisions will be
standardized as much as possible for County wide application,
with lot sizes (density) open for discussion.
~ Facilitates community participation, consensus building and
ownership for proposals submitted to the Board.
II. A greater variety of uses are generally provided for with the addition
of development standards and mechanisms for public review for
potentially conflicting uses.
* Comprehensive standards for less problematic uses with
administrative (staff) review.
~ Creation of Conditional Use Permits reviewed by Planning
Commission only, based on specific development standards which
must be met. Proposals meeting these standards must be
approved.
* Greater use of Special Use Permits with addition of Planning
Commission review and recommendation to the Board.
III. Major emphasis has been on acceptable methods for reducing permitted
densities, particularly in the Agricultural Preserve areas. Methods
discussed have included: large lot zoning; clustering; performance
zoning; and transfer of development rights. Recommendations are:
* AG-5 = 5 acre minimum lot size, with parcels over 40 acres
required to cluster on smaller lots.
* AR-1 = 1 acre minimum lot sizes.
* AV-1 = 1/2 acre lot sizes.
IV. Restructuring of Permitted uses to coincide with Comprehensive Plan
and appropriateness of uses in given areas, with an emphasis on:
* Orienting uses towards more customary rural uses, and
eliminating urban uses.
* Establishing commercial and higher density centers to
accommodate rural needs.
VI. Adding consideration for physical constraints and potential
liabilities in land development, including:
* Steep slopes.
* Groundwater recharge areas, generally.
* Historic sites.
* Land productivity for agricultural and forestry uses.
ZONING ORDINANCE REVISION
Preliminary Recommendations
Commercial Development Subcommittee
I. Editorial Revisions
A. Revise the format of the ordinance to include a "statement
of purpose" for each zoning district.
* Committee has suggested that a statement of purpose be
added to the ordinance to establish the intent of the
provisions and provide linkage between the plan and
ordinance.
B. Revise the format of the existing ordinance to include
major categories of permitted uses rather than an all
encompassing list of specific uses.
* For example, rather than try to list all of the various
types of permitted offices or retail uses, include
general categories such as "General Office" and "General
Retail" which group land use types by their respective
characteristics.
C. Revise and expand definitions pertaining to commercial
provisions.
* Specifically, the committee has recommended numerous
revisions and additions to the definition section.
D. Utilize graphics, where feasible, to illustrate revised
development standards and guidelines.
* Committee has suggested that the ordinance include
graphics to illustrate development standards such as
screening and buffering for parking lots, outdoor
storage requirements and locations for loading areas.
II. Substantive Revisions
A. Eliminate the B-3, Special Commercial District.
* Committee recommends elimination of the B-3 district and
combining these uses with those permitted in the B-2,
General Commercial District. Those land uses which pose
specific problems in terms of land use impacts would be
subject to a conditional use permit.
B. Create a "Conditional Use" format which provides specific
development standards or "conditions" which exceed those
standards otherwise permitted in the district.
* Unlike the existing special use or special exception
procedure where review by the Board of Supervisors is
required, the committee has recommended the permit would
require administrative review by the Planning Commission
only.
* As an administrative review, proposals complying with
the adopted conditions must be approved.
* Conditions would focus specifically on the physical
development aspects of the site.
C. Create a "Neighborhood Commercial District."
* Committee recommends adoption of an additional
commercial zoning district which provides for small
scale commercial land uses in areas that are
predominantly residential. The intent is to provide
1lmited commercial and/or service uses in locations
convenient to local residents. Such uses would be
subject to stringent development standards in terms of
gross square feet, screening and buffering, hours of
operation, and outdoor storage.
D. Create a "Planned Commercial District" to accommodate mixed
use proposals.
* The existing ordinance, with the exception of the B-1,
office district, does not include provisions for mixed
use development. The committee has recommended the
ordinance provide for varying combinations of
residential, office and commercial land uses within one
unified development.
E. Create an "Interchange Commercial District" to accommodate
development around the I-81 interchanges in Roanoke County.
* Committee proposes to recommend provisions for
commercial, industrial and possibly residential
development around the I-81 interchanges in the County.
The intent is to provide for those uses which require
high visibility and access, but do not impede with the
functional aspects of the interchange.

DATE: August 8, 1989 ll~~
SUBJECT: Economic Development 75/25 Policy Update
The Economic Development staff made a presentation to the Board of
Supervisors on June 14, 1989 that outlined the status of the 75/25
policy adopted by the Board in early 1987. Information about the
status of development and the available industrial sites were
highlights of the presentation. Specific short range
recommendations were made to the Board about reviewing Principle
Industrial areas shown in the Comprehensive Plan and reviewing the
zoning classifications of property zoned agricultural or
residential that might have economic development potential. The
intent is to increase the supply of industrial land and "ready to
go"sites in order to achieve the 75/25 goal by 2003.
The Board of Supervisors directed the staff to complete a review
of industrial sites in the County and make recommendations for
further Board action to participate in the development of another
industrial site during the fiscal year. Recommendations for
Comprehensive Plan amendments and property rezonings will be
coordinated and reviewed with the Planning staff prior to
presentation to the Planning Commission and Board of Supervisors.
A copy of the June 14, 1989 Board report and update is enclosed for
use by the Planning Commission. Please review the material as
presented as reference material for future staff recommendations
concerning the Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Ordinance.
Please let me know if you have questions about economic
development.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The staff made a presentation at the March 28, 1989 Board of
Supervisors meeting regarding the status of the 75/25 policy
adopted by the Board of Supervisors in early 1987. The Board of
Supervisors requested that a specific action plan be developed
within sixty (60) days to address the economic development
efforts to achieve a 758 residential/25$ commercial/industrial
tax base ratio before the year 2003. The attached report makes
specific short range recommendations about site development,
marketing efforts and industrial land use to implement the 75/25
policy.
A. Update of current economic development activity ~ - I
Economic Development activity has picked up in Roanoke County
this spring. Site plans, building permits and new business
announcements are enumerated by square footage on Table 1. Some
of the more significant activities are:
Dominion Bankshares Corporation has filed a preliminary plan for
a 141,500 square foot, four story addition at their operations
center on Plantation Road. They plan to make a capital
expenditure between $5 and $10 million over the next year. This
will serve present and future needs for the Operations Center.
ITT (Electro-Optical Division) has received a building permit and
started construction of a 5,000 square foot maufacturing building
at their complex in Jamison Industrial Park.
Srog er has obtained a building permit and started construction on
a 42,500 square foot addition to the frozen storage facility at
their complex in the Glenvar area.
Three companies have purchased land in Roanoke County's Southwest
Industrial Park.
-Insulation Systems will construct a 20,000 square foot
building and employ ten (10) to store and distribute
~ commercial insulation material.

A land sale is near completion-for the purchase of 1.46
acres for the construction of a 10,000 square foot
industrial incubator in Southwest Industrial Park.
The vacant Moore's building on Brambleton Avenue has been
sold to Roanoke Memorial for a clinic. Rennovations are
anticipated during the summer of 1989.
The 4 19 corridor has the following projects under construction:
-A 60,000 square foot office building in Colonnade Corporate

711 prospects are looking for "ready to qo" industrial sites.
Specific needs of each prospect are on file (confidential) with
the pepartment of Economic Development.
g. Inventory of assets
In o rder for Roanoke County to have continued economic growth,
the following County level assets are required:
o Available, "ready to go" industrial sites using proper
zoning, water, sewer and road access.
o Marketing Strategy with up to date marketing material
i.e., brochure, profile, marketing book.
o A positive attitude and problem-solving methods to
handling the concerns of local business and industry as
they expand operations within the community.
o Full-time, professional economic development staff at the
local and regional level.
Th e s e four assets are further described in their current
condition below:
1. Need for "ready to go" industrial sites
~ During the preparation of Roanoke County's Comprehensive
4
o_~
Plan, a 1984 land use survey determined that there were
997 acres of land used as industrial.
During the five year interval, another 122 acres was
rezoned to industrial M1 or M2 (according to Planning
Commission Annual Reports) giving Roanoke County a
theoretical inventory of 1119 acres of industrial used
land.
This inventory is not realistic because of the following
reasons:
a. Land use - the land included as being zoned, encompasses
all industrial land used for its intended purposes.
Therefore, large acreage tracts owned by such companies
_ as Ingersoll-Rand (98 ac) and Koppers (89 ac) are
industrially zoned and under single ownership even
though a large portion of the property may be vacant.
According to Roanoke County's real estate tax records,
there are actually 457 parcels of 2201.34 acres zoned
industrial in the county and 146.07 acres in Vinton.
This is more than double the estimated figure of land
used for industrial and implies that over 1100 acres of
industrial land is vacant.
b. Floodplain - A majority of the industrially zoned land
in western Roanoke County is adjacent to the Roanoke
River. Floods in both 1968 and 1972 were recorded and
have been indicated on U.S. Army Corps of Engineers
floodplain maps. This flooding threat has eliminated
several large west county parcels from consideration as
unrestricted industrial sites.
5
o- i
c. Access - Access to a primary highway is an important
~ f consideration for property to be used for industrial
purposes due to terrain, highway locations in the County
and past land use patterns, land zoned industrial has
serious access limitations in Roanoke County. For
instance;
1) A potential 287 acre site in Eastern Roanoke
County has only one access point along a narrow
secondary road that crosses Norfolk/Southern railroad
tracks at an unguarded crossing.
2) A 163 acre site in northern Roanoke County with
interstate frontage has no direct access to a
secondary road.
3) A 15 rail site in western Roanoke County has a
narrow easement as an access means across other
property.
d. Availability - Owners of industrial zoned land are not
always willing to sell the land for its intended use at
a favorable price. For example, 285 acres of industrial
land are classified in a land use category, according to
County real estate records, thus guaranteeing them a
lower assessed value and tax rate. However, they are
subject to "roll back" taxes for five preceeding years
upon sale of the property.
e. Industrial zoning - Roanoke County's Zoning Ordinance
includes a variety of uses under the categories of M-1,
M-2 and M-3. Basically, M-1 permitted uses are "light"
6
~_i
industrial uses generally carried on within a structure.
Permitted uses in M-2 are "heavy" and are carried on
both within a structure and outside on the property.
Quarries, mining and asphalt plans are the only uses
allowed in the M-3 District.
The permitted uses include not only manufacturing,
assembly and processing descriptions, but wholesale
business and public utilities. Certain "unwanted" land
uses are included in the industrial category, i.e. flea
markets, automobile graveyards, veterinary hospitals,
commercial kennels, used fire storage.
The rezoning records indicate that property is being rezoned to
industrial for specific uses.
Including rezonings for APCo (36 acres) and Valleypointe (52
acres) in the fall of 1987, only 122 acres have been rezoned to
M-1 or M-2 since 1984. Other rezonings to M-1 have been for
small business such as:
Mini-warehouses
Electronic components assembly for South Star Corporation
Ceramics shops
Automobile repair business
American Drum's musical instrument assembly
Lumber drying business
Contractor's equipment storage yard
7
o-e
f. Future Industrial Sites
A study completed by the Salem-Roanoke County Chamber of
Commerce in 1980 and updated in 1985 by the County staff
indicates that land is zoned for other uses,
particularly residential, that could be rezoned and
eventually marketed as industrial sites. These sites
have excellent potential for residential development.
A report will be prepared in July 1989 to analyze and
rank selected residential sites and recommend to the
Board of Supervisors that they be rezoned to Industrial
District M-1. This action could add 1,420 acres to the
available industrial site inventory and protect them
from residential development. This acreage combined
with improvements in access and extensions of water and
sewer could provide the County with sufficient inventory
for future economic growth.
g. "Ready to go" sites
"Ready to qo" industrial sites are those sites that have
the following characteristics:
1. appropriate industrial zoning
2. Access to adequate roads
3. Water service at site
4. Sewer service at site
5. Available for sale with established price.
8
o-~
Of all the 2,201 acres currently zoned industrial in
Vinton and Roanoke County, only 195.5 acres meet th e
requirements of being a "ready to go" site. These sites
have been recorded with the Virginia Department of
Economic Development, Regional Partnership and
industrial realtors. Table 2 indicates specifics of
these sites.

h. Sites havin4 deficiencies
Land currently zoned industrial is remaining vacant,
indicating that there are other factors affecting its
development for the use intended.
There are a number of industrial sites in Roanoke County
that are less than "ready to go" because of one or more
deficiencies. These include 382 acres of industrial
zoned land. Table 3 indicates these tracts and the
deficiencies that they have. Water and sewer service is
not available to some sites and access is a problem for
others. However, planning for water and sewer service
has progressed for several of these properties. Access
improvements for a number of other properties were
addressed as the 1988 update of the Six Year Secondary
Road plan but received lower ratings as being new
projects. Future emphasis on improving both secondary
road access and primary roads to serve industrial sites
will contribute towards improvement of the inventory of
industrial land.

2. Marketing Strategy
The fiscal year 1989-90 budget contains $23,500 in funds for the
economic development staff to initiate a marketing effort, both
in s tate for name recognition and out of state industrial access
prospects. This activity includes:
a. Preparation of Marketing Materials - In order to
effectively market the County, up to date published
marketing material is required. This includes a new
brochure, community profile and updated material for the
marketing book. Three thousand dollars ($3,000) has
been identified in the FY 89-90 budget to complete these
tasks.
b. Advertising - Prior to, and in conjunction with
marketing trips out of state, selected advertisements
will be made in regional and trade publications to
support the prospective efforts. Widespread reference
to the All-American City program will highlight the
effort.
c. Prospect trips - Four out of state marketing trips are
scheduled to market Roanoke County and the Valley. The
midwest and northeast are preliminary target areas.
Trips may be made in conjunction with the
Regional Partnership.
d. Trade Show Partici ation - Technology trade shows bring
together a variety of companies in one location. The
strategy will be to_identify expanding industries and
seek to have them locate in Roanoke County.
11
' l
a~
e. Bconomic bridges with Northern Virginia - Three
,-
marketing trips are planned for building "economic
bridges" between Northern. Virginia and the Roanoke
Valley. These will follow up on the Roanoke Valley's
visit in September 1988 and two subsequent marketing
trips. A return visit from Northern Virginia business
leaders is being planned for September 1989.
3. Positive attitude and methods
The Roanoke County Board of Supervisors and top administrative
officials have a pro-business image that encourages new business
locations and local companies to expand. However, this attitude
needs to be instilled within the "rank and file" of County staff.
Due to many changes in the development process; including fees,
County standards and state mandated inspection items, local
businesses get frustrated when they seek to obtain permits to
expand and enlarge their operations. The availability of
information at the onset is needed so that realistic schedules
can be developed to complete the project.
The following actions are recommended to either be continued, or
to be initiated to alleviate "frustration" with the development
process.
a, informational brochures outlining County requirements
aad regulations for site plans, building permits
b. Scheduling of preliminary meetings to respond to
preliminary plans.
12
c. Use of economic dev ~ '
elopment staff as "mediators" where
conflict and misunderstanding occurs.
d. Training of development review team in public relations
and understanding of the private developers timing and
financing constraints.
"Expediting" critica 1 economic development projects to
guarantee a five day review period on plans submitted.
4. Full-time staff
Success in economic development requires that full-time staff be
assigned to the Department of Economic Development in order to
carry out the work program approved in the budget. Currently,
two professional economic developers and one professional
secretary are assigned. This is an increase from 1982 when
economic development had one-half time staff emphasis. Starting
~_
in 1984, the first full-time staff member was assigned and
finally in April 1988, the Economic Development Department was
organized with three (3) people assigned full-time duties.
Implementation of the approved work program will occupy all three
staff members through the next fiscal year in marketing and out
of state trips.
Support of Roanoke County's efforts at the regional level is
provided by County participation in the Regional Partnership and
a F financial contribution of $68,182. These funds are used for
representing and marketing the Roanoke Valley to prospects
outside the area.
Financial support of $25,000 is provided to the Roanoke Valley
13
Convention and Visitors Bureau fo O~/
r tourism and convention
bookings. The Bureau promotes the Valley in travel publications,
solicits meeting planners to hold conventions and conferences
here and operates a visitor center in the downtown market area.
C. Program Recommendations to achieve 75/25
Specific recommendations to change the composition of Roanoke
County's tax base to 75$ residential and 25$ commercial/industrial
to achieve a balance between the residential and commercial/indus-
trial sectors by the year 1995 as follows:
1. Increase the supply of "ready to qo" industrial sites by
pursuing one of the following alternatives with the
$100,000 approved by the Board of Supervisors.
a. County participation in the development of a 45 acre
site in Eastern Roanoke County.
b. County participation in the purchase and development
of a 50 acre rail site in Roanoke County.
c. County participation in the development of either of
two I-S1 sites of 50 and 35 acres.
d. County participation in the development of a 27 acre
industrial site in Western Roanoke County.
14
.. o-i
2. Participation in the Virginia Shell building program to
obtain funds to construct a shell building on a site in
Roanoke County.
3. Recognize the need for future economic growth by reserving
through rezoning to industrial/commercial, prime sites
that may be currently zoned as residential or agricultural.
A study will be completed during July 1969 and a report
made to the Board analyzing and ranking the sites to be
rezoned.
4. Formation of an advisory economic development council.
S. Increase in marketing efforts to "sell" Roanoke County
! both within and outside the Commonwealth of Virginia.
D. Ongoing activities in the area of economic development to
meet goal of 758 residential and 258 commercial/industrial include:
-Completion of Valleypointe, Phase I (SS acres)
-County participation in the development of Valleypointe,
Phase II, (175 acres).
-County marketing of existing, vacant industrial sites in
the Vinton Industrial Park, Roanoke-Botetourt Industrial
Park and Fort Lewis Industrial Park (100 acres).
-Promoting the Explore Project as the tourism destination
point of the Roanoke Valley.
-Encouraging the development of a travel and tourism
"infrastructure" (hotels, motels, and restaurants) in
Roanoke County.

FROM: Paul M. Mahoney ~; ~~~; f
County Attorney (~
SUBJECT: Revision of Rezoning Forms and Procedures
DATE: 17 July 1989
Over the past several years the County Attorney and the
Director of Planning have discussed from time to time the necessity
of revising rezoning application forms and procedures. Unfor-
tunately this revision has repeatedly been relegated to low
priority status. Upon the a
ppointment of Mr. Harrington as
Director of Planning, he and I had the opportunity to review these
forms and procedures. Based upon our discussions, Mr. Harrington
has recommended several changes that will:
0
reduce the number of forms that applicants will need to
complete and that the staff, Planning Commission, and
Board of Supervisors must review;
~ allow the Planning Commission and Board of Supervisors
additional time to review new requests without increasing
the total amount of review time to the applicant;
improve the administrative record keeping by adopting an
ordinance format for all rezoning actions.
The ordinance would contain all information relevant to the
rezoning of the property, including conditional zoning proffers.
The County Attorney, Director of Planning, and Clerk to the
Board of Supervisors recommend these changes to the Board in the
belief that these changes will result in administrative and
procedural improvements to the rezoning process and satisfy legal
requirements. The Director of Planning then will implement these
changes for the Planning Commission commencing the end of July
N~~~
2
1989; and the County Attorney and Clerk will implement these
changes for the Board commencing August 1989.
The Director of Planning will modify the existing rezoning
application form, eliminate the rezoning petition form and Planning
Commission recommendation form. A rezoning ordinance will be
substituted for the Board of Supervisor's final order. The
statement of proffers will be eliminated and will be replaced by
a letter from the applicant, and the proffers will be included in
the rezoning ordinance. The rezoning petition and rezoning
application forms are duplicates. One form is sufficient to begin
the rezoning process, and the current rezoning petition form does
not contain any information that is not already provided on the
rezoning application form.
The revised rezoning application form includes information
regarding the method of offering proffers for conditional rezon-
ings, as well as the signature lines. The information concerning
number of employees and value of improvements has been eliminated
to avoid the allegation that the Board is practicing "fiscal
zoning." It is hoped that rezoning decisions are based upon a
careful evaluation of conformance with the Comprehensive Plan and
impact upon surrounding areas and public facilities, and not upon
its "profit" to the County. Finally the application form will
include an exhibit for the metes and bounds description of the
property.
The Board of Supervisors final order form and statement of
proffers can be eliminated by utilizing a rezoning ordinance. The
applicant can offer proffers for conditional zoning by submitting
them in writing as part of an application letter or subsequent to
filing of the application by submitting a letter listing the
proffers. The rezoning ordinance shall contain all relevant
information to the rezoning including a listing of the proffers
accepted by the Board. To eliminate or at least reduce the
practice of applicants submitting proffers to the Board immediately
prior to the commencement of the public hearing, and thereby
f r r / '~
~.
3
preventing appropriate staff review and Planning Commission
recommendation, I would further recommend that the Board consider
delaying the adoption of a rezoning ordinance with amended proffers
until a subsequent meeting, so that the amending proffers can be
included in the amended rezoning ordinance.
The Planning Commission recommendation form is also unneces-
sary. The Planning Commission transmittal report provides the
Board of Supervisors all of the relevant information regarding the
Planning Commission's actions and recommendations. This trans-
mittal report will continue to be used in the future.
Section 15.1-491 (g) of the State Code provides that "the
governing body may by ordinance amend, supplement, or change the
regulations, district boundaries, or classifications of property."
(Emphasis added.) The Roanoke County Charter provides that no
ordinance may be passed until it has been read by title at two
regular meetings. Every ordinance shall require for final passage
the affirmative vote of a majority of the members of the Board.
The revised procedure for rezoning ordinances shall provide
for a first reading of a rezoning ordinance to occur at the second
meeting of the month (when rezoning public hearings are normally
scheduled). The second reading of this rezoning ordinance shall
be held at the second meeting of the Board in the following month.
For example, upon Mahoney's application to rezone three acres of
land located on Route 419 from R1 to B2, the first reading on this
rezoning ordinance would be held on August 22, 1989. The Planning
Commission would hold its public hearing on this request on
September 5, 1989. The Board would hold its public hearing and
second reading on this rezoning ordinance on September 26, 1989.
This revised rezoning procedure would not result in any delay
to the applicant for Board consideration of this matter. It would
provide the Board with at least one month advance notice of any
rezoning application. At the first reading of a rezoning or-
dinance, the Board would have the following information: title of
the ordinance, rezoning application, and letter from applicant
,~-1 ~,,.
-,,,,
4
listing proffers if conditional rezoning is requested. The first
reading of rezoning ordinances could be accomplished by using a
"consent agenda" format. This "first reading rezoning ordinance
consent agenda" can also schedule the public hearing and second
reading on this rezoning application.
It is anticipated that the Board would routinely approve the
first reading and schedule the public hearing and second reading
of the rezoning ordinance. The Board would be alerted approximate-
ly one month in advance of upcoming rezonings, and would have an
opportunity to make inquires of staff concerning these matters.
The typical rezoning cycle will take less than sixty days to
complete. During transition, the new procedure might be confusing,
however, after the initial cycle commencing in August 1989
confusion should be eliminated. Both the Planning Commission and
Board of Supervisors will receive knowledge of new rezoning
requests as part of their consent agendas approximately one month
prior to their public hearings and action.
If the Board has any questions or concerns regarding the
revised forms or procedures, please do not hesitate to contact
either the County Attorney or the Director of Planning.

Re: Driveway entrance crossing Mudlick Creek
Dear Mr. Hauser:
This letter is a follow-up to our meeting of last week, at
which time we discussed your driveway entrance crossing Mudlick
Creek and the related embankment and culvert. Roanoke County has
previously discussed concerns about this installation during 1988.
The following is a summary of discussions and requirements that you
must address.
Roanoke County has to verify that your installation will not
cause additional flooding to adjoining properties. Based on the
relative elevations taken during our meeting, it appears that the
invert of the culvert under Farmington Drive is approximately 2
feet higher than the top of the 4 foot diameter culvert under your
driveway. In order for your driveway to have no influence on the
capacity of culverts under Farmington Drive, you would need to
1 owe r your driveway so that the driveway i s 1 foot be 1 ow the invert
of the culverts on Farmington Drive. This will allow for normal
slope of the stream and cause no backwater to influence the
capacity of the culverts under Farmington Drive. This alternativ®
would not require a detail flood study but only verification by an
engineer or land surveyor that the elevation differential between
the various structures exist. Assuming that you wish to proceed
with this alternative, you have until August 1, 1989 to complete
the excavation of your driveway to develop this elevation
differential and have a professional engineer or land surveyor to
certify this elevation differential to the County.
In the event that you wish to pursue other options concerning
culverts and/or embankment levels of your driveway, you will need
to complete a floodplain study in accordance to County and FEMA
regulations. If you proceed on this basis, you need to complete
the study by May 1, 1989 and incorporate this design into your
driveway by August 1, 1989.
