NEW SECTION SECTION 7-7, AND ENTITLED CERTAIN
UNSAFE BUILDINGS
WHEREAS, the Board of Supervisors deems certain amendments to the

general welfare of the citizens of Roanoke County; and
I
WHEREAS, a Notice of Intention to amend the Roanoke County Code as
proposed, and public hearing thereon, have been advertised and posted in accordance
with law.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED by the Board of Supervisors of Roanoke
County that the Roanoke County Code be amended as follows:
Chapter 7, Buildings, amended by the addition of a new section,
Section 7-7. Certain unsafe buildings.
Section 7-7. Certain unsafe buildings.
(a) Removal or made safe. When a building or structure or any portion
thereof for which a building permit had been issued by Roanoke County prior to
September 3, 1974, is found unsafe upon inspection by the building inspector, he
shall order such building or structure or any portion thereof to be made safe or
taken down and removed. The term unsafe building or structure or portion thereof
shall include buildings or structures or portions thereof structurally unsafe;
unstable; unsanitary; inadequately provided with exit facilities; constituting a
fire hazard; unsuitable or improper for the use or occupancy to which they are put;
constituting a hazard to health or safety because of inadequate maintenance,
dilapidation, obsolescence or abandonment; or otherwise dangerous to life or
property.
I
(b) Restoration of unsafe building or structure. A building or
structure or part thereof declared unsafe by the building inspector may be restored
to safe condition; provided that if the damage or cost of reconstruction or
restoration is in excess of 50 percent of the value of the building or structure
exclusive of foundations, such buildings or structures, if reconstructed or restore,
shall be made to conform with respect to materials and type of construction, to the
requirements of the Roanoke County Building Code in force and effect at the time of
said restoration, but no change of use or occupancy shall be compelled by reason or
such reconstruction or restoration.
(c) Notice of unsafe buildings or structures; order to make safe or
secure or to remove. Upon determining that a building or structure or a portion
thereof is unsafe as heretofore defined in this section, the building inspector
shall serve on the owner of said building or structure, or on one of the owners, or

lienholders of record, a written notice containing a brief description of the
building or structure or portion thereof determined to be unsafe, a statement of
the particulars in which the building or structure or portion thereof is unsafe,
and an order requiring the same to be made safe and secure or removed, as may be
determined by him, and fixing the time within which compliance shall be commenced
or completed. If any person to whom such notice and order is addressed cannot be
found after diligent inquiry or search, then such notice and order shall be sent
by registered mail to the last known address of such person or a copy of such
notice may be published for not less than five days, in a newspaper of general
circulation in Roanoke County and, in either case, a copy of such notice shall be
posted in a conspicuous place on the premises to which it relates. Such mailing
or advertisement and posting shall be deemed adequate service of such notice and
order upon the owner or owners and upon any other person having an interest in the
premises and a failure by any such person to comply with the terms of said order
shall be deemed to be a violation of this Code.

(d) Disregard of notice and order. If any person served with an order 0
the building inspector to make safe or secure, or remove, an unsafe building or
structure should fail within the time required in such order to comply with the
requirements of said order, the building inspector may report such noncompliance to
the County Attorney with request that an appropriate action at law or proceeding in
equity be instituted to secure compliance with said order or, in his discretion,
said building inspector may cause the necessary work to be done to place the said \.
building, structure, or part thereof, in a safe or secure condition, the cost to
the County of such work to constitute a lien on the land upon which the building orl
structure is located and to be recovered from the owner or other person in possess-
ion, charge or control of such property. Before said building inspector shall
undertake the work of making safe or secure any such building or of removing the I
same, he shall cause an appraisal to be made by a committee of five consisting of I
at least one licensed real estate agent and at least one licensed contractor, said
committee to be appointed by the Board of Supervisors, who shall, together and at
a predetermined time, inspect said property and appraise the value of said building
or structure in its present condition, determine the estimated cost of doing the
work necessary to make said building or structure comply with the requirements of
the Roanoke County Building Code in force and effect at said time of inspection,
and determine the estimated value of said building or structure if the work ordered
to be done were performed. If, in any case, the estimated cost of such work is
greater than 50% of the estimated value of the building or structure after the
performance of such work, the building inspector shall not undertake to place said
building or structure in safe or sound condition but shall remove the same. Not
lless than five day's written notice of the date and time at which the aforesaid I
committee will inspect the property shall be given by the building inspector to the:
person served with said building inspector's notice and order in any manner provide~
in paragraph (c) of this section. I

tor, actual and immediate danger of failure or collapse of an unsafe building or '
Istructure, or any part thereof, so as to endanger life or property, the building i
linspector shall forthwith cause the necessary work to be done to render said I
IbUilding or structure, or part thereof, temporarily safe, whether other procedure I
lin this section shall have been instituted or not, and the cost to the County of I
lsuch work shall constitute a lien on the land upon which the building or structure I
lis located and may be recovered from the owner or other person in possession, charg~
lor control of such property. I
I (2) If, in accordance with the provisions of this section, the work I
iof placing any building, structure, or part thereof, in a safe condition shall I
Idevolve upon the building inspector and it shall appear that such building, I
Istructure, or part thereof, is in such condition as not to warrant the expenditure I
thereon of a sum of money sufficient to make such repairs or do such work as is I
necessary to put the same in a safe condition, the building inspector shall have
fthe authority to tear down and remove such building, structure, or part thereof and
!the expense of tearing down and destroying any such building or structure, or part
jthereof, and of the removal, if necessary, of the materials from the land, shall be I.

lor structure, or part thereof, and the building inspector shall recover, or cause t~
.be recovered, for the County from such owner or person in possession, charge or I
