COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR'S COMMENTS:
SUMMARY OF INFORMATION:
In May of 2014, Roanoke County issued a Request for Proposals for the sale and
redevelopment of the former Roland E. Cook building located in the Town of Vinton. The
County received and accepted a proposal from Old School Partners, LLC to purchase and
redevelop the facility into a mixed-use development. The proposed development includes
the establishment of twenty-one (21) upscale loft apartments (15 one bedroom and 6
studio), with commercial components to be determined during the rezoning process.
The Roland Cook building was constructed in 1915, and was used as an educational
facility from 1915-2009. The two-story building consists of 17,642 sq. ft. on 1.046 acres,
within walking distance to downtown Vinton. The property represents a unique opportunity
for redevelopment as a mixed use residential and commercial project. To facilitate the
redevelopment and historic preservation of the building, the County submitted an
application to the Virginia Department of Historic Resources in January of 2015 to pre-
determine the facility's eligibility for inclusion in the National Registerof Historic Places and
Page 1 of 3
the Virginia Landmarks Register. The County received notification in March that the
property received approval at the Preliminary Information Form level (Part 1) and is eligible
for this nomination.
To assist with the project, a three -party performance agreement has been negotiated
between Roanoke County, the Roanoke County Economic Development Authority and Old
School Partners, LLC. The agreement provides for reimbursement of permit fees
associated with the project. The agreement also provides that a real estate tax revenues
generated as a result of redevelopment be returned to the project developer for the first ten
(10) years of the project. The total amount of tax proceeds returned may not exceed
$150,000 in total. If the company generates less than the estimated new local tax
revenues, then the actual grant for that year shall be less. The ten-year period will
commence on January 1, 2017.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Perthe performance agreement, the grant will be calculated as a reimbursement based on
new tax revenues generated by the project. The fiscal impactwill be in the form of foregone
revenue during the agreement period.
ALTERNATIVES:
1) Adopt the Performance Agreement authorizing the County Administrator, or any
Assistant County Administrator, to execute the Performance Agreement between the
County of Roanoke, the Roanoke County Economic Development Authority and Old
School Partners, LLC
2) Decline to adopt the Performance Agreement
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends Approval of Alternative 1.
