WHEREAS, the Board of Supervisors has offered to
conduct a referendum on the question of consolidation of the
Roanoke Valley into two cities; said offer being made in an
effort to permit the citizens of the Roanoke Valley to have an
opportunity to express their opinion on said question; and
WHEREAS, the City of Roanoke and the City of Salem
have refused to consider such a consolidation referendum; and
WHEREAS, the Board of Supervisors of Roanoke County is
of opinion that the citizens of said County have the right to
select and choose the type of government they desire to live
under and all said citizens have elected to reside in Roanoke
County rather than ln any other political jurisdiction for many
various reasons; and
WHEREAS, all studies that have heretofore been con-
ducted and the City's evidence in the previous annexation trial
indicate that annexation will increase the tax burden on the
respective cities with no comparable increase in services to be
rendered to the citizens of said cities; and
WHEREAS, for the reasons hereinabove stated, and for
various other reasons, the Board of Supervisors of Roanoke Count~
desires to reaffirm its position against the annexation of any
portion of Roanoke County by the City of Roanoke, the City of
Salem or the Town of Vinton.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Board of
Supervisors of Roanoke County that said Board hereby officially
reaffirms its position against the annexation of any portion of
Roanoke by either the City of Salem, the City of Roanoke or the
Town of Vinton.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that said Board further
reaffirms its position that the citizens of Roanoke County shouk
be given the opportunity to express their opinion on the con-
solidation of the Roanoke Valley into two cities and that the
question of such consolidation should, if an appropriate agree-
ment be worked out by all political subdivisions, be submitted
to the voters of the Roanoke Valley.
