,1:
Supervisor Johnson advised that she had talked with the neighbors in the
area who had expressed concern over the truck traffic on Scenic Hills Drive
and the length of the permit, but understood Mrs. Richa~ds' meeds amd would
not oppose the request if certain conditions were set by the County and
complied with by Mrs. Richards. Mrs. Johnson advised that she had requested
the County Engineer to submit items which the Board may wish to consider
as conditions that could be attached to the permit. Mrs. Johnson moved
that the permit be granted subject to the conditions submitted by the County
7-25-78

Engineer. Mrs. Richards expressed strong opposition to the condition stating
that "no wood shall be allowed in the fill except for the tree stumps that are

considerable discussion, Mrs. Johnson agreed to allow wood/tree stumps to be

A public hearing was held this date on the petition of International
Funeral Services, Inc.
The request was presented to the Board by W. H. Jolly,
attorney. Mr. Jolly introduced Mr. Roy Kinsey, architect, who prepared the
site plan. Mr. Kinsey briefly explained the nature of the proposed rezoning,
the type of building proposed, and the surrounding land area. Mr. Kinsey
advised that parking is proposed to be ]ocated at the rear of the facility and
will not be visible from 419 and will be lighted. Mr. John Cone asked Mr.
Kinsey what plans had been made for access to the property. Mr. Kinsey advised
that deceleration lanes would be provided for those entering the property from
client agreed to comply with in the event the rezoning was approved, which
I
Route 419. Mr. Jolly then called attention to the four (4) conditions his
conditions were submitted to the Board in a letter dated July 5. The letter in
its entirety is filed with the minutes of this meeting. Mr. Jolly advised
that the hours of operation would be from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m., noting that
these are not "rush" hours when traffic is heaviest. Mr. Jolly then reminded
the Supervisors of the Planning Commission's favorable recommendation on
7-25-80
421
I
the proposed rezoning.
At this point the Chairman opened the floor for public comments.
Mr. J. T. Adams, abutting property owner, advised that he and other persons
residing closest to the proposed facility had no objection to the request
provided that the conditions set forth in Mr. Jolly"s letter dated July 5 are
adhered to. Mr. Adams then submitted signatures of five additional families
who have property adjacent to the property in question endorsing the proposed
rezoning.
I
Approximately 100 persons were present in opposition to the proposed
rezoning. Mr. Roger A. Lorden, 4390 Sheldon Drive in Cresthll #2 and spokes-
man for certain residents in Cresthill #2, advised that he resided approx-
imately 1/4 mile from the property in question and objected to a business
in a residential area. Mr. Lloyd Lazarus, 3124 McVitty Road, advised that
his property borders 419 by 1,000 feet and stated his objections to a business
in a residential area and the traffic problems this proposed use of the land
could incur. Frank Rogers, Jr., attorney for Oakey's Funeral Homes, objected
to the Supervisors' not hearing his client's request for a rezoning to accomm-
odate a funeral home a short distance away on 419. Mr. Rogers advised that
he is not opposing the request, but objected to the Board not considering
Oakey's request at the same time it considers Interrtational's (Lotz). Mr.
Jolly objected to Rogers' appearance before the Board and to any involvement
with Oakey's. Mr. Rogers was permitted to speak since Oakeys is a property
owner on 419. Windsor Hills District Supervisor Lawrence Terry reminded
Mr. Rogers that the Board is rehearing the request of International Funeral
Services by Order of the Roanoke County Circuit Court. ~1r. Leon Williams,
residing approximately three (3) miles from the site, opposed the rezoning;
Mr. Nelson Bond, resident of Sugar Loaf farms, also raised objections to
the rezoning citing the increased traffic load on 419 and stressing the desire
of the opponents to have the property adjoining the highway remain residential.
}1r. Bond expressed concern that if granted, this request could set a precedent
for other businesses entering the area.
In rebuttal, }1r. Jolly reiterated the fact that his client has no
interest or association with Oakeys. He reminded the Supervisors that the
County Planning Commission did not give favorable recommendation to Oakey's
request for rezoning, but did give favorable recommendation to the request of

International. He stated that in his opinion, this is an ideal way to protect
the land against a less desirable use. Mr. Jolly then asked the Supervisors
to consider his client's petition on its merits alone.
Supervisor Terry moved that the Board refer the request back to the
I
Planning Commission for sixty days for further consideration and report back
to the Board their recommendation. Mr. Jolly objected to this, noting that
the matter had already been heard by the Planning Commission and said there
were no new facts in the case. Mr. Jolly said that his client preferred
a decision now, either for or against.
Supervisor Terry withdrew his motion and moved that the petition of
International Funeral Services, Inc. be denied, which motion was adopted by
the following recorded vote.

anyone was present to speak on behalf of the petitioners, no one spoke.
Supervisor Myers moved that this public hearing be continued to the August
I
8, 1978 Board meeting, which motion was adopted unanimously. Attorney
Edward A. Natt appeared later in the meeting and advised that he represents
the Michies. He stated that there had been a misunderstanding on Mr. Larry
Michie's part on what time the public hearing had been scheduled and asked
the Supervisors to reconsider their action to continue the hearing to August
8. The Supervisors agreed to have the hearing at this time, for which Mr.
Natt thanked them.
Mr. Natt explained that the rezoning was to permit construction of
single-family dwellings for the Michies and their family. No one spoke in
opposition to the request.

IN RE:
REQUEST FOR REZONING MORATORIUM - ROUTE 419
Mr. Leon Williams, spokesman for five civic leagues representing
I ,
I
residential areas in the County adjoining Route 419, appeared before the Board
and requested the Supervisors to place a moratorium on all rezoning of property
bordering Route 419, beginning at the Salem City limits and extending to the
intersection of Colonial Avenue and Route 419 in the County, until definite
action to construct an alternate Route 419 or major changes of Route 419 are
taken by the Virginia State Highway Department. Mr. Williams presented petitior
reportedly containing 901 signatures in favor of placing the moratorium, which
petitions are filed with the minutes of this meeting.
Mr. Williams then cited the following reasons for a moratorium:
(1) The residential zoning along 419 is in keeping with the County's existing
land use plan, which recommends residential use. Mr. Williams advised
that he is not asking the Board to change the zoning policy, but to retain
its present one.
I
(2) The attempts of the three Valley governments bordering on Route 419 to
work together for the orderly development of 419.
(3) At present, plans for 419 are uncertain. Business and commercial zoning
affects the limited access, designation and purpose of traffic movement
on Route 419.
(4) Rezoning will endanger the aesthetically natural appearance and environment
now present along the highway.
(5) Rezoning of property would endanger the character and values of residential
property already established along Route 419.
(6) Relief from the Route 419 issue - the County Supervisors and staff,
developers and concerned citizens in the area have been heavily involved
in 419 rezoning requests for the last several years.
Mr. John P. Cone, Jr., representing the Citizens Environmental Council
referred to the Clean Air Act by which localities will have to reduce pollution
by other sources. Mr. Cone further stated that 419 was developed to expedite
traffic. In expediting traffic it is reducing pollution in the Valley, he
I
advised.
Windsor Hills District Supervisor Lawrence Terry asked the County
Attorney the legality of proposing such a moratorium. County Attorney
Foster advised that he would like some time to research the matter and report
back to the Board at a later date.

The Supervisors then asked the County Planner for his opinion. County
Planner Hooper said more study needs to be done and the Board needs more infor-
mation on which to base a decision. Mr. Hooper said more information is needed
from the State Highway Department, a study of the ramifications of further
development of 419 needs to be done and detailed land use plan for the 419 area
is needed.
Supervisor Johnson expressed some reservation over the legality of such
a moratorium and asked for more information and time before acting on the request.
Supervisor Terry moved that the Board declare a 90-day moratorium on
all rezoning of property as heretofore requested in the afore-mentioned petitions.
Supervisor Myers offered a substitute motion that the County Attorney
be directed to render a legal opinion to the Board within 60 days as to whether
the Board can legally place such a moratorium on rezoning along Route 419 from the
Salem corporate line to Colonial Avenue to be effective until action is taken by
the State Highway Department on either constructing an outer circumferential loop
around Route 419 or widening of 419.

and Salem to obtain their recommendations and analysis as to what types of studies
would be appropriate for assuring a rational basis for development decisions in

eliminated from the College's 1978-79 budget request. Other representatives of
Virginia Western were also present.
After considerable discussion as to the merits of the request, Super-

some avenue for a loan through Farmers Home Administration. Mr. Hooper further
advised that he would pursue the matter and report back to the Board his findings
at a later date.

In relation to the report submitted by the County Executive regarding

amending certain sections of the Roanoke County Code which pertain to animal
control. The motion was adopted unanimously.

IN RE:
POSSIBLE STREET NA..'1E CFANGE - LOCH HAY'FN ROAD
AND LOCH HAVEN DRIVE
In a report to the Board, County Engineer Art Guepe advised that his
office had sent letters to all residents of Loch Haven Road and Loch Haven
Drive that the County is considering the renaming of both roads and asked
for their comments on this proposal and any recommendations they may have
for street names. In summary, the County Engineer advised that the opinion
'~j .
of the majority of persons was that the County should change the name of the
road other than the one on which they live.
Supervisor Myers moved that the names on both respective roads
remain the same.
At this point, Sheriff O. S. Foster advised the Supervisors that
problems have been encountered whereby fire trucks were sent to the wrong
street. Sheriff Foster expressed deep concern over the confusion by police,
fire, and rescue squad personnel in answering calls on both roads, which
confusion could lead to serious repercussions, or in some cases, even death.
Based on the Sheriff's comments, Mr. Myers withdrew his original
motion and then moved that County Engineer Guepe be directed to send out
notice to all residents of Loch Haven Road that in the interest of public
safety and welfare, the County is going to rename the road. Mr. Guepe was
further directed to poll the residents of said ~oad~dvising that they have
the choice of two names -- Woodhaven Road or North Haven Road and report
back to the Board his findings. The motion was adopted unanimously.
