Alex N. Apostolou, attorney, was present as spokesman for this
petition. He reminded the Board that this petition had come before them
at least three months ago, that the petitioners had met all requirements and
asked that the permit be granted and that the ordinance just passed was not
particularly applicable to his cl ient's situation.
The question was raised as to whether the Kelley petition came
I
under the new ordinance. It was noted that the ordinance went into
immediate effect and that the Kelley application had come before the Board
prior to the passage of the ordinance. County Attorney Buchholtz advised
that there was no doubt that the ordinance just adopted went immediately
into effect, but that it was at the Board's discretion whether to apply
the ordinance to this appl ication.
Ann Bailey, 7514 Deer Branch Road, was present in opposition.
I She spoke briefly and expressed appreciation for the ordinance.
Katina Batsin, 4306 Williamson Road, spoke briefly expressing

of Robert and Linda Kelley. His motion was adopted by the following roll

Crowder expressing concerns regarding the Roanoke City Airport Runway
Extension project. Supervisor Minter stated he had written several letters
to the City of Roanoke concerning this matter and he felt Mr. Crowder had a
good point and as yet had not received a satisfactory answer from airport
officials, or anyone else regarding what kind of effects or damages this
would have on the homes of citizens in this area. He further stated he
would 1 ike to have a meeting scheduled in the area near the airport and
invite a representative from the City to meet with citizens to answer
questions concerning what the citizens could expect in the way of damages.
I
Chairman Burton responded to Mr. Crowder's question in his letter
asking what safety measures the County Board of Supervisors could take to
insure the safety of his family and property, by stating the County was
not in the position or under any responsibil ity to take safety measures, as
the airport was not under the County's control. Supervisor Nickens stated
he felt Mr. Crowder was asking the Board as a governing body to do what it
could to answer the questions of citizens concerning safety measures.
Mr. Glenn W. Crowder, 251 Plymouth Drive, N.W., was present and
stated the City of Roanoke had not answered any of his questions and he
felt there should be some control on the fl ights. He felt there was danger
to his property and he felt the County should protect the property owners.
I
Supervisor Minter then moved that a letter be sent to the City
of Roanoke to have a neighborhood meeting with appropriate representatives
present to answer citizen questions. Supervisor Johnson added she would
1 ike to have the County Administrator follow up on the letter. Motion
