COUNTY, VIRGINIA HELD AT THE ROANOKE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION CENTER
MEETING DATE: January 13, 2015
AGENDA ITEM:
Approval of execution of a contract for the purchase of
property contingent upon completion of due diligence
measures and to contract for any incidental expenses in
connection with the acquisition of 1.24 acres identified as
"Lila Drive", a part of the Plantation Road, Bicycle,
Pedestrian and Streetscape Improvement Project
SUBMITTED BY Paul M. Mahoney
County Attorney
Richard Caywood
Assistant County Administrator
COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR'S COMMENTS:
SUMMARY OF INFORMATION:
Roanoke County desires to purchase 1.24 acres, identified as Tax Map No. 027.06-05-
13.00-0000 and known as Lila Drive from private citizen, John Henry Huffman. The
agreed upon contract/purchase price is the Roanoke County assessment value of
$21,700. This request is to authorize the County Administrator, or his designee to
execute a contract to purchase this property contingent upon completion of due
diligence measures and to contract for any incidental expenses, such as survey, title
search and environmental reports in pursuit of the purchase of the property.
This purchase is part of the Plantation Road Bicycle, Pedestrian and Streetscape
Improvement project ("Plantation Road Project" or the "Project") in the Hollins
Magisterial District. The acquisition of Lila Drive will enable a partial upgrade to Virginia
Department of Transportation ("VDOT") standards. The planned construction would
include several access management improvements and the installation of a traffic signal
on Plantation Road with crosswalks and pedestrian signals. It is anticipated that, once
improved, VDOT will accept the Lila Drive right of way into the state secondary system.
Roanoke County Community Development has been working on the Project since 2009.
The Project has approximately three million eight hundred thousand dollars ($3.8
million) in federal, state and local funds allocated for Phase One, which includes
Page 1 of 3
• Pedestrian and bicycle shared use path on the west side of Plantation Road from
Williamson Road to Walrond Drive-,
• Sidewalk on the west side of Plantation Road from Walrond Drive to Gander
Way-,
• Sidewalk on the east side of Plantation Road from Williamson Road to Friendship
Lane-,
• Street trees, pedestrian lighting, crosswalks and pedestrian signals; and
• Curb, gutter, and storm drains.
The Lila Drive project is the next phase of the Plantation Road project. The Lila Drive
intersection is a critical component as it lies in the middle of the Plantation Road project
between the three largest employers in the area- Wells Fargo, Exelis, and BSC
Ventures/Double Envelope. The intersection is currently controlled by a stop sign on Lila
Drive, which is a privately -owned road.
In March 2014, VDOT determined that the Lila Drive traffic signal, crosswalks, four
hundred and twenty (420) feet of road reconstruction to public road standards, entrance
changes and on-site reconfig u rations at Exelis and BSC Ventures/Double Envelope
were allowable project costs as all of these improvements would contribute to enhanced
access management on the corridor. Roanoke County has requested additional VDOT
funds through the Regional Surface Transportation Program and Roanoke County funds
through the Capital Improvement Program to construct the Lila Drive intersection and
associated road reconstruction.
The Project's status is as follows-
• The Virginia Department of Transportation has agreed to the installation of a
traffic signal at the intersection of Plantation Road and Lila Drive based upon a
Traffic Signal Warrants Analysis performed by Whitman, Requardt and
Associates.
• Preliminary engineering is needed for the traffic signal, crosswalks, entrance
relocations and for about four hundred and twenty (420) feet of Lila Drive road
reconstruction to meet VDOT public road standards.
• Plantation Road surveying is complete; Lila Drive surveying is needed.
• Lila Drive was included in the Army Corps of Engineers Jurisdictional Waters
Determination Request for the Plantation Road project.
• The Programmatic Categorical Exclusion for the Plantation Road Project will
need to be modified.
• The remaining five hundred (500) feet of the road will also need to be upgraded
to VDOT standards at a future date. Roanoke County will be responsible for
maintenance until that time.
Reasons for fulfilling the Lila Drive component is that the Project will -
Be an instrumental component of the Plantation Road Project Address Plantation
Road safety issues and challenges as these enhancements will significantly
Page 2 of 3
increase safety of vehicles, pedestrians and bicyclists using the Plantation Road
corridor and the Lila Drive intersection.
• Be an integral part of the Project's planned sidewalks, shared -use paths,
intersection crosswalks and pedestrian signals system.
• Enhance the integration and connectivity of the transportation system, across
and between modes, for people and/or freight.
• Promote walking and bicycling while reducing the number of short vehicle trips.
• Increase economic development opportunities, expand transportation options,
improve environmental quality and enhance overall quality of life for users.
The proposed contract provides Roanoke County with the opportunity to obtain a
survey, a title report and a Phase One environmental report to assess the feasibility and
advisability of purchasing the Property.
FISCAL IMPACTS:
The deposit for the contract is $1,000. The incidental due diligence expenses, which will
come out of the County Administrator's professional services, 213000-3013 budget/line
item, is estimated to be no greater than $10,000.
STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS:
1. Approve the authority to execute the contract and incur incidental expenses.
2. Do not approve the authority to execute the contract and incur incidental expenses.
VOTE:
Supervisor Bedrosian moved to approve the authority to execute the contract and incur
incidental expenses.
Motion approved.
