Box 20708 ROANOKE, VA 2401 8 PHONE: (5401 774-7408 FAx: (5401 774-805 I TAP has been operating its Housing Programs out of the Pinkard Court School Building for the past two and a half years. Roanoke County donated the building to us so that we could develop affordable housing. One of the decisions we made after listening to the residents was that additional people in the neighborhood would not be appropriate at this time. Since Roanoke County and the residents of Pinkard Court had legitimate concerns, we felt it was our responsibility to try and balance out these issues. Therefore, we decided to operate our Housing Programs out of the facility and to do everything we could to make sure housing services were provided to Roanoke County residents. Please find enclosed a report titled "The Pinkard Court Report." This report is a detailed description of the affordable housing programs that we have been operating out of the facility. Our objective is to operate cost effective programs and coordinate those programs as to maximize resources, staff coordination, and have a positive impact on the Roanoke County community. In addition to TAP's Housing Programs, we have also created The Blue Ridge Housing Development Corporation, which is a community development corporation (CDC) whose sole function is the development of and education about homeownership. Most of our programs are continuous and ongoing, although we continue to seek resources and fmd ways to deliver quality services to those who need it. We believe Roanoke Count. ,has signif cantly contributed to the development of affordable housmg by provic~mg us ...~._.~; :1.F..'.!?,F^:.•M.e'+i i.t~~irnn,..i'sl:<:*'A.'..'

There is a need for the development of new affordable homeownership programs in Roanoke County and to upgrade existing housing stock in some of the older, low to moderate income communities. We intend to work with the appropriate departments to assess the possibilities and develop a working strategy. We know your office and the Board of Supervisors is extremely concerned about the problem of affordable housing at all income levels and it is because of that concern we can develop a creative plan. I especially don't want to wait until there is negative criticism toward the County about doing its fair shaze regarding affordable housing in the Roanoke Valley.

This effort is an interdepartmental effort between s % % ~ Develo went and the WeatherizationeAstheDepartment ofHousing and Community J, / A stance Program. By the coordination of these ~. factions the Crisis Intervention clients will be assured of good quality work from trained inspectors and contractors who are dedicated to their professions and who take a true interest in assuring that Crisis clients receive the best fob possible. The Department of Social Services provides crisis assistance funds for emergency heating equipment, repairs and purchases to be handled by the Department of Housing's Weatherization Assistance Program. If needed the Weatherization Program can supplement funds to assist in serving eligible households. The program begins an November 1st of each year and continues through March 31st. In 1995-96 ninety three households were served in the program. This represents total revenues of approximately 5111,430, expenses of 5100,205 and total administration of 511,225. This program helps to solve the problems that low income families and individuals face when there is only a limited or fixed income in the household, and the heating system suddenly stops in the middle of winter and they are faced with the decision of whether to get the heating system repaired or replaced or eat and pay the rent. The Crisis Intervention Program solves that problem for them. Being that this program is available to them, they can continue to pay their bills, buy food, clothing, and for the elderly, buy much needed medical supplies.

Johnson, Chairman, Board of Supervisors subject: Flooding in Mid-West date: March 6, 1997 After seeing the news reports about the flooding in the Mid-West, I remembered the assistance which the Roanoke Valley received after natural disasters such as the Flood of `85 and Hurricane Hugo. I would like to ask our staff, on a volunteer basis but on County time and at County expense, to travel wherever needed to assist the victims of the recent floods. If you believe this should be added to the Board Agenda for Tuesday, please do so. cc: Board of Supervisors ~ d~=~ 4~
