(As advertised in the March 15, 2025, issue of the Roanoke Times.) SUBMITTED BY: Chris Dorsey, City Manager SUMMARY OF INFORMATION: Per the Code of Virginia, a public hearing is required prior to a locality selling or otherwise conveying real property. The property highlighted on the attachment is identified as an approximate +/- 1.78 acre tract located in Salem, Virginia, being a portion of Tax Map # 216-4-1. The City was approached by Mt. Regis Partners, LLC with a request to purchase a +/- 1.78 portion of this City parcel comprised of +/- 21.09 total acres. This proposed area adjoins the requestor's Mt. Regis Townehomes property on Kimball Avenue. Most of the property is a very steep slope with a small section that levels out beside Kimball Avenue. The requestor has committed that no building(s) will be placed on the land as the intent of owning the property is to provide a viewshed and buffer for the Mt. Regis Townhomes. This building(s) restriction will be recorded as part of the deed if Council authorizes the sale. The purchase price of $25,000 reflects the limitations on the property related to topography for any future City use. FISCAL IMPACT: The purchase price of the property is $25,000. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends Council hold a public hearing on the potential sale of this +/- 1.78 acre portion of Tax Map # 216-4-1 and upon completion of the public hearing, consider authorizing the City Manager to execute documents necessary for sale in a form Page 36 of 51 acceptable to the City Attorney.

AT A REGULAR MEETING OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SALEM, VIRGINIA HELD AT CITY HALL MEETING DATE: March 24, 2025 AGENDA ITEM: Resolution to Approve EDA Bond Issuance Request to adopt a resolution approving the financing of a project proposed by the Trustees of Roanoke College and the issuance of bonds by the Economic Development Authority SUBMITTED BY: Rosemarie Jordan, Director of Finance SUMMARY OF INFORMATION: The Economic Development Authority of the City of Salem has considered the application of The Trustees of Roanoke College for the issuance of revenue bonds in an amount not to exceed $25,000,000. These funds will be used to finance certain capital improvements on the main campus including but not limited to the construction, equipping and furnishing of the Shaun McConnon Discovery Center, the renovation of and improvements to Crawford Residence Hall, and other capital projects on the main campus. This borrowing will have the EDA listed as the conduit issuer. This type of transaction is allowed per Section 147(f) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended and Section 15.2-4906 of the Industrial Development and Revenue Bond Act, Chapter 49, Title 15.2 of the Code of Virginia of 1950, as amended. As part of the borrowing, City Council also has to pass the attached resolution approving the financing of the projects. FISCAL IMPACT: Approving the financing of this project for The Trustees of Roanoke College will allow the College to access the tax-exempt borrowing market for the issue, thereby saving money for the latest expansion on the campus located in the City. There is no financial impact or obligation of the City in approving issuance by the EDA. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends adopting the attached resolution approving the financing of the projects proposed by The Trustees of Roanoke College for the work on the Shaun McConnon Discovery Center, renovations to Crawford Residence Hall, and other main campus capital projects.
